Yesterday a bill was sent up to tho Senators
. from the lower House, containing tho project
ofa law, purporting that whilo Spain continues
.to disavow tho independence of this Republic,
no Spaniards shall ho permitted to hold any
“employments whatever in tho Customs of Post-
' Office department. That nil such.ns are actu
ally serving in the army, or holding offices in

.reservation of tlioir pay and salaries; and that
'such posts be ad interim, filled by substitutes,
in conformity with the existing laws.
Wo are led to believe that these measures
will bo adopted by the Senate, because, under
the existing circumstances it is no longer safe,
nor proper that those situations should bo held
, by Spaniards, in whom no one reposes the least

The writer of the above is a plain, fair man
—and his statement is remarkable on several
accounts. First as communicating, as we be
lieve, the first intelligence of the very decisive
steps of Bolivar in exacting—-for so it must.be

natural reference to Bolivar, and to him alone;
as the author of all measures, that he is the on

With feelings of 1 he deepest regret; wo an
nounce the death of our townsman,. .Captain
Narcisse Rigan, at- Plaquemine, onboard the
steamboat Attakapaii, on Sundjiy night lash—
He left hero a week since* in good health and
spirits, for New Orleans. On the night of hi?,
death, ho ate a hearty supper, and sat up till
towards 11 o’clock with the other passengers.
When breakfast was ready on Monday morning,
Mr. W. B. Eastin went to Captain Rigau s
birth to wake him—where he was found dead!
There were many passengers on board of tho
boat, all his friends and acquaintances, and tho
shock this sudden dispensation occasioned, may
bo well imagined. Wo understand his body
was taken to New Orleans, to be interred there,
Mr. Rigau wAs our nearest neighbor, a gen
tleman of engaging manners, and very Highly
esteemed bv all who knew him. He was the
son of the late Lieutenant General Rigau, of
the French army, and a Captain of the Imperi
al cavalry of Buonaparte. His father was ban
ished from France, for the part he took in the
Emporor’s favor, after his return from Elba,
and the son followed his fortunes <0 America.
Deprived of every thing, the subject of this
notice struggled with.his poverty, maintained
his father and sister by his own labor, and in tho
course of a few years, acquired a Kttle inde
pendence, and set up as a merchant in this
town.- About two years since he went to
France, to receive a sum of J15000 given him
by the late Emperor of tljo French, and was
considered sinco that time, by his townsmen, as
a man of growing fortune.
He married a la ly of this place a fow years
since, who with two young children surviyo him.
This dispensation to his family is most severe,
and indeed his death has caused a sensation a-
mongthe public, seldom produced by the death
of any individual.
Mr. Rigan died in tho. 33d year of his age;
and so far as general sympathy for his untime
ly fate,can alleviate the affl etion ofhis distress
ed family, they will be consoled; for his exit,
so sudden and singular, every whop? excites
regret.—Attakapas Gazette. '
From a paragraph In the New York States
man, we learn that tho arrival of Captain Gre
gory, who carried out the Greek-frigate Hellas
from New York to Napoli—“d'ffuscd groat joy
among the Greeks, as it was immediately ru
moured that an Aniorican Naval Officer had
been sent out by the Government of tho United
States to their assistance; and Capt. G. had
great difficulty in persuading evon the most re-
spectable Greoks that the Government of this
country had no hand in his coming. Capt. G.
mentions that Admiral Miaulis is very popular;
that in him, more than any other man among
them, the confidence and affection of all Greeks
unite. On tho arrival of Capt. Q. at Napoli, 1
ho was requested to navigate the frigate over,
to iEgin.1, and consented to do so; that with
him went passenger Admiral Miauljs, whotp hp
treated, having the moan? to do so, with that
generous hospitality which characterises the
fiaval sorvice of our country. On the' arrival
of tho ship at jEgina, the command was surren
der to Miaulis, and Cnpt. G. became his guest.
They were immediately put on stinted allowan
ces, and supplied with, very common food.—

Natchitoches, May 1.
By a gentleman just arrived from Nacogdo

De Bastropo, a conspicuous member of the con
vention now in session at Saltillo, for the pur-
poso of framing a Constitution for the State of
Coahuela and Texas, died bn the 4th Februa

Thu Admiral apologized for this change of fare,
by telling Capt. G. that there were so many
thousand of his countrymen destitute of the sus

with better food. Indeed it is most affecting
to hear Capt. G. relate the fact that'there arc
thousands of destilu o human beings crowding^
the streets of Napoli, who eagerly soizo even
blades of grass within their reach to sustain
life. . Capt. G. is of opinion ihat, the coarsest
and cheapest dried provisions in this country
are the best to send to iho Greoks; beans, peas,
kiln-dried corn meal, he represents to be equal
if not preferable, as articles of provision, to
wheat flour.

The Next Governor. Notwithstanding nil
that is said to tho contrary, the Forsyth folks
still insist that Campbell is no Candidate! The
petty arts they have resorted to,*to prevent op
sition to their idol, are very amusing, nnd evince
a tact in management worthy the worshippers
of the “ Giant of Intrigue." But when they
find it all will not do; when they find tlioir
bravado is as little regarded as their flattery,
they profess not to believe it jp'Tt is impossi

afraid to start a candidate! Afraid indeed !
and of what I Not of Forsyth—we could

cause tho friends of Col. Campbell are less

Noise is not always a prooT of strength, as
Mr. F. we trust will find to his cost. The re-

offered, are no doubt sincere. Their unwil
lingness to believe it is pretty good evidence
of the bitterness of their regret,

skepticism so far as to endeavor, whon the elec

Strange Proceeding! '- 'K Meeting of tho
citizens of the town and county was called last
week, to make preparations for the celebration
of the approaching 4th of July. Notico of the
Meriting was published in both papers, and was
generally circulated throughout the county.—
The. Meeting was called at 7 o’clock P. M. but
was not opened till about 8. Something like a
hundred attended. A distinguished citizen was
called to. the Chair; and another, of different
political views, was requested to act as Secreta
ry. The object of tho Moeting was then stat
ed, and the usual Committees appointed.—
These ware selected without regard to party,
and it was supposed general satisfaction wits
given. The appointments were all confirmed
by the Meeting, and no objection being raised
to any part of the proceedings, it adjourned.
After the Meeting was over, however, a few
appeared dissatisfied, and retired to another
building to reconsider. Herd they R esolved,
that as they had not been treated with sufficient
respect by the assembled citizens, they would
dissent from their proceedings, have another
meeting, and make their otvn appointments.—
This proceeding of tho minority was as unex
pected as the reason assigned for it is unsatis
factory—as no just ground can be adduced. -
Whenovcr any party however; wish to soparale
from the people, they can do so.
In tho meantime, tho Committees proceeded
to tho discharge of thoir duties. Wishing and
expecting the citizens to unitd enthusiastically
in tho celebration of the day, endeavors were
made to unite the feelings of all parties. Thu
delivery of the Oration was tendered first to _
