The *S iuth American Qiestion —-
A French paper (the Journal des
lkbatsJ announces that a Viscount
had lei I Paris for Madrid, not as an
ambassador, but “on an extraordi
nary mission to the cabinet of Ferdi
nand. ** Che London Courier, on
this fact, remarks:— “What the ob
ject of this mission may be, we shall
not attempt to eoujeefore; but were
we calledvupoo to hafird one, we
should think it likely that he is the
bearer of some important comrnu *i
eation respecting South America.
We suspect the Presidents Message
to Congress, has worked a great
change in regard to meditated
schemes, not so mu h on account
of what the President says, as be
cause it is pretty generally believed
Mr. Monroe would not have held
quite such decisive language, if
there had bee * no previous explana

A late Lisbon Gazette, in a furi
ous rhapsody agaios* constitutional
government, thu< threa’ens the new
governments of South America:—
i We are etmviuued of the necessity
of extirpating the evil, not only in
Europe, but on the other side the
Atlantic, where this Hydra now
furiously discharges its mortal ve
nom. Should it be suffered to ex
ist, it will infect Europe in such a
manner, that, tearing it to pieces,
amidst the fury of cruel artd oppo
site parties, it will reduce it to the
necessity of interminable wars, and
exp -sc it to become one day tbe prey
of some adventurer, who shall
know bow to take advantages of so
many misfortunes. This, there
fore, is the object which at prese.it
more particularly inse-eet awl oc
cupies the attention of the cabinets
of Europe. They have, however,
some diffi ultie9 to va> quish; some
time is necessary to balance the re
eiproeal interests of all na ions,
which are rnoreor less involved in tbe
affairs of \inerica. They have to
weigh the means which seem the
best calculated to recal to reason
a*ol duty their people led astray by
the factious, whose only object is,
to make themselves the dictators
and g *vernors of those whom they
have deluded by their impostures. M
Four Days later from Europe.
We are indeffedUa a passetige
who arrived last evening in the
steam boat from P evidence, for the
Boston Daily Advertiser of Tues
day , which contains the arrival of
the ship Emerald, Capt. Fox, in the
extraordinary short passage of six
teen days from Liverpool By this
arrival London popers to the even
ing of the 18th, and Liverpool to
the 20 h February are received, be
\ng four days later than received by
the C dumbia, Capt Rogers. The
most important articles taken from
the Boston paper ace ass dlows :
The Paris Monfteur of e"eb 16
annouoc.es officially that the king of
Spain at the solicitation of France,
had signed a decree granting a li
berfy of free trade with South A
merica to all oat ions, on the footing
of an equality of duties A con
ve tion had also been signed regu
lar i g the occupation of Spain by
the French troops, and a treaty re
cognizing a debt of 34,000,000
francs to France.
lo tbe House of Commons, Feb.
17, Lord Nugent, after a lo.ig
speech, moved hat the instructions
to Sir W. A. Court, the British
Minister in Spain, during tbe Spa
nish war, and copies of the corres
pondence with the Spanish govern
ment relative to the mediation ot
(Treat Britain, be laid before the
House, nr. Canning, in opposing
the motion, declared that iosiruo
tions wete given to Sir W. A’Court,
which f ‘ibado him to put himself
into a blockaded place. An amend
ment approving the conduct of min
isters, was carried t7l to 30.
In the H ome of Commons, Feb.
18, he oavy estimates were voted:
29.000 men, being an increase of
4.000 on last year’s estimates, were
granted In the discussion, some
allusion having been made to the
probable reason for iugtnen iftg the
naval force, Mr. Canning said, io
explanation of a passage in the
Kiug’s Speech, that mere never
was a period in which the country
might with grea er certainty ex
pe t a coo inuan.je of pea>'e; but
added, “it must he clearly seen that
there never was a period io whi. li
there was so mu-h agitation, and it
was ne<*essarv not only that we
should be ourselves satisfied, but
that the conviction should prevail io
all parts of the world, that the na
tion was ready to maintain its rights.”
Io the three great stations, the Med
iterranean. the West ludies, and now

A letter from Greece, without

accepted with gratitude, but declin

Ale ter from Corfu announces
that he G eek* with 7 or 8000 men
had made a successful deseeni upon
the iglandot Mytyleoe, and another
letter that the Turk ish garrison at
Pstras, had evacuated the
and retired to Lepanto. Boilj dies©
accounts are doubtful.
MEXWO. — As the Minister i
now appointed, it is indispensably
necessary for the public service,
that he should proceed forthwith to
his place of destination. A letter
received at P'lilvidelphia from Mex
