Tt is, perhaps, one of the most alarming symptoms of the degeneracy of morals in tie present day, that the distinctions of* right and wrong are always swept away in {lolite conversation. The most serious of. bne.es, are often named with cool indiffer ence i the most shameful profligacy with effected tenderness, and indulgent tolera tion. The substitution of the word gal lantry for that crime which stubs domestic happiness ai d conjugal virtue, is one of the nivist dangerous of all modern utilises of language. Atrocious deeds should ne wer be called by names. This must ccr tainK contribute, more than any thing, to diminish the horror of vice in the rising ge ■erstiui I hat our passions should be too ■often engaged on the side o f error, We may look i tin cause though pot for the vin dication. in the • mrestated propensities of Ottrcon .t uti< •; but that our reason should ever be cniphiyed in its favor, that our conversation should everbe taught to pul liatc it, that our .lodgement should ever - look on it with indifference, |)aa no shad ow of csctiae because this enn pretend to no foundation in nature, no anologv in temp'ation, s;o palliation in passion. People who are resolved to-plena* al ways at all events, frequently overshoot themselves, and seuOer themselves ridicu lous by being too good.— A lady going t.» •at plumb cake and candy at’ a friend’s house onu morning, ran to vho cradle to •ec the ft%e bos, as loon as slip" came in.

Ntw Yon*. March 13 By the arrival at this port, on Saturday •vening, ol the ship Sic * hania. captain Burke, in 26 days from Hat ro-de-G"acc, the editors of the ConuncrchU Advertiser huve received Paris paper* to the Bth of P brnary. The ship left Havre on th. lath, and ore of the passengers informs, tlat a report had reached that place, of the death of the kingofßpain. It was said that he went o itat the head of his guards to attach an tdratce party of the Insur geuts, or. as they call themsehes, Nation al troops; that hi* guard* went over to the Ifuovj.>m ••andanlv and that the mon areii, m attempting to escape, was slain. Another report aa to the manner of his de.iih.ia. that the people of Mid rid ex bibiied ay iipthms of an approaching riot; Uuit the king ordered nit gi aids to fitv upon, and dia terse the cowd; mid tint* It* order was re»u* v d, au-i (he kne %£■ " bather •iltirr rumor it 'rue *• uncertain. It is, uowever, evident. Jmfr ■ rott account* published in Pam papers, <hat the inaurgant cause in Apain, is gain arcngUk ana that the revolutionary pii t, if not ultimately triumphant, will i ot <’..aiiy be subdued. One account from Madrid, to the Ssth, states that the capital was then tranquil; that Cadiz still hcklout; that the king had directed hit commander in chief, general Freyrer, top roc lain, an amoejty to tlie In aergents, of which it was believed they would avail themselves; and that tranquil ity would thus b£ speedily restoted •hrougfaout ihe kingdom. Another account states, in substance, that the amnesty was indignantly rejected; that Cadiz was in possession of the Insur gents; that the insurrection was general in the tooth of Spain, embracing the troops, clergy ami people; that the Insurgent army was augmented to 3u,(H7h; that Madrid it svlf was “full of insurrection;” that some ■if the king'* guard* were massacred; and iluti the court was about to retire to Fum potima, about 170 miles north-east of Mad rid, and within 42 miles of Bayonuc, in Franc*. A Paris paper of the sth of February, say* —“It i* announced tills evening, that .. courier from Spam, has brought flic Am bassador of that n*: ion, the official Hews , C the insurrection at Cadiz, and of the entry of the insurgent troops mto that city. It is stated that tlit- gates-of Cadiz wer * opened in the Constitutional Army on the '2 2d of January ” Tlie next arrival, (probably the Spaitun, which was to leave Cadiz,fur Norfolk, to ward ihe cloae of January) may furnish in formation less contradictory in its details, and more decisive as to the final result. A London paper, of the 3d, says—“ The sudden indisposition of the king tins tend ed to increase the sensation produced by .the death of his father and brother He has had a violent attack of inflamation nu the. lungs.—The first bulletin ..! the Phy sicians was very alarming, and is aa follows; “The king has been attacked with an in ti a mat inn of the lungs; we flatter ourselvesj that the disease Inis been favorably oper ated upon.” This day’s bulletin is more Haltering. The avenues to the palace are obstructed with carriages and people; an immense number of persons remain at the V-des. The king has lost within two years, his father, mother, one of his bro thers, his daughter and grand daughter ” FROM FRANCE. Charleston, March 20.

She brings Paris papers to the last of January, aml letters from Havre to the tiny of sailing The commercial news by her is important—The Cotton market was in a very depressed stale, and prices daily declining.

At die time that city continued to keep tlie gates shut against the insurgents, who wore fortify ing themselves in the Isle of Leon. It i* said by some letters that part of the caval. ry of the royal army hail advanced to re connoitre as far as Port Royal: this must have been detachments sent on the look i out General Freyrt- was still in command at Seville. There are not at present stifli cieat noons to attack the constitutional army, as they are called; anti war is carri- 1 ed on ;m’y by proclamation. Neither side manifest a disposition to fight. Will the i soldiers of Ft eyre join themselves with l «A ■r the nldicti of Leen ? Will those of Leon abandon their chief at ♦ Receive the par dan of Hie Generals at Ferdinand f This i» the only question. It is generally thought they will not fight. The issue of this affair depends on the cenrse which the military shall think proper to pursue. This state ot uncertainty may continue for some time. Charleston Courier.

The minister of justice has advised a convocation of the Coites, such as it was in 1814, but the minister of foreign affairs has thought it better to wait till tranquil ity is restored.' Two thousand men, unde# the command of Gen. Joseph O’Donm 1, with which he was marching to join Gen Frey re, have deserted him and gone over ‘w the insurgents. Gen Cruz Murgo, who commanded a djvition of troops, having suspicion of their fidelity, lias dismissed tuem. The defections do not discourage our government, which perseveres in its system. The intendanf of Barcelona, Don Jose Anza, and Ron Niceto de I.anreta, the counsellor of finance, and one of the favorites of the King, have been arrested, and conducted to the inquisition. CHRONICLE. memmm mbs =—S—=— Tuesday Morning, March 28, 1820 Nothing definitive lips yet been done with the Report of the Committee on Forc : gn Relations, as regards our affairs with Spain.

Tribunals of justice have uniformly re quired it to be established, by cle ir and unequivocal evidences that the party pro ceeded agaihst has had due notice of the existence of an actual blockade. Secondly. It is not the accidental ab sence of the blockading force that will be •sufficient to remove the blockade. But, , ifthe relaxation happen, not by such acci dent, hut hy the lemi'iuess of the cruisers stationed to maintain the blockade, then it is impossible fir a Cmut of Justice to sav that the blockade is actually existing. Thirdly. The very notion of a complete, blockade’includes, that the besieging force can apply power to every point of the blockaded state. If it cannot, there is np bfockade. , Fourthly. Tt is at all times must de sirable that thp blockade should be declar ed in a public and distinct manner-, instead of being left to creep out, from the consc quences produced by it. Cultivation of the Grape, Olive, See. The following extract of a letter to a Senator in Congress is worth the attention of planters as well as of statesmen .- “l am very much gratified by the ap pearance of conviction, that our soils, cli mates, and general capacities are likelvto give us the grape vine and its fabrications, upon a great and piofituble scale. When our cotton becomes 160 millions of pounds and our sugar 60 millions, we shall feel deeply the want of other ob jects of cul tivation and production. The vine is to France, 100,000,000 of dollars. Now (V) million* of Sugar at SSB, are ft 4,800,000 and 100/000,000 cotton at 15 ct*. i* 24,000,000 826.800,000 Surely this is a matter worthy of itteu* tbn, at any time, and especially at this mo ment of general difficulties, when sugar, cotton, rice, and tobacco, with grain, are falling in our markets; and the culture of indigo is suspended. The olive ought not to be lost sight of, nor the date. I observe in the accounts of India, that it is stated that they manufacture much oil from the seeds of hemp, flax, and other ve getables. Among the productions raised for the manufacture of oil, is the vine or bush producing beans or pulse, called by the Africans the btmey or benney, and call ed in Indostan the “ sesamum in botanv “ sesnmum orientate," It has been brought into South Carolina by the African ships, is raised there, and its oil has been sent hith er and to New-York, as salid oil, in pre sents, and for sale. I have tasted it at the house of Dr. Mease here, and vised it, with pleasure, in my family. -The pulse, bean, or pea, when pressed and deprived ofhuich pf its is excellent and plearmt food, boiled alone, or with vegitables, which re quire butter or oil. It would be well for our government confidentially to instruct our consuls and commercial agents to send us this seed from Africa and Indostan.** Nat. Intel.

He is now’safely lodged in the prison in this City.—He makes ample confession of all his transactions while robbing the mail, and subsequent to it. I believe we have recovered nearly all the property taken by Mm fi >m the mail, perhaps within 10 or 12 dollars, which he had expended in endeavoring to mike his escape.—The monriy found on him amounted to no more than »evenin-seo’->i dollars, of which tweutv Hollars vus a Washington *»d Warren bill, which it appear he had in his posses sion before the robbery. They are all the evidences of property as yet found.
