From the Hilt. M.i ni tg Thronivlc, 15'Jiinst. i.oan cocmi.i.v::. Lord Cochrane, whose nunc hat often been bumpered oU’in toasts, on this side ol tilt: Atlantic, is aow reqtiidng such obliga- lions by die plunder ol‘ American property. Tills nohjem in enrolled his name amongst the English reformers, and none has been mure loud an 1 vociferous i.i charges of cor ruption, against the English ministry than lord Cochrane. The moment however, that licobtains-powcr, lie changes the name o. patriot for that ot a fiirutc. This patriot iiad been convicted Irv a due process of law ot shameful speculation in the public funds after which he was deprived ol ids knight hood: he then commenced ills patriotic ca reer, and turned reformer. lie was elected a member ol the house of commons, and his speeches against the ministry, were all along distinguished by the severity of his philip pics. He has now it seerns undertaken the reformation of the naval code, we may there fore anticipate a new edition of maritime law, corrected and improved, and adapted to present times and circumstances, from the pi ll of Lord Cochrane. We may expat this new edition, to find a clause of this character, that all property which lie can find upon the ocean, belongs exclusively to bis lordship. From his liberal construction of the word reform, Americans may expect hereafter much annoyance from lids practi cal commentator on the laws of nations. To ivhat lengt'is Ids lordship will go iu his new plan-of reform, is a question to lie settled hereafter; he is certainly now going t grand scale, ar.d since he was tillable to re- firm the parliament of his nilive country, this new doctor oi laws has undertaken the reformation of the ocean. Our government u ill w eprcsijm.e, find it necessary to check the progress'of lifts henevoleiit reformer, before lie carries Ids project into full opera tin',. Some ofour feilow citizens were dis posed to think cant. Biildir ratnor too fasti dious hi refusing la saiuu h-s lordship, when lie entered the harbor of Valparaiso. Cap tain Lliidle seemed at that early period, to hare obtained an inkling of his lordship’s real chur.,ctvr, and we arc i iclim.l to be lieve, that if he should fall into his lordship’s Company again, \vi:h a ship cf equal force, a ea'.ute would lie fired not much to his lord- iiip’ssmsfiuijn. His I >n!ship tak.s a ve ry couipcnTtou.'. mode of adjudicating pro perty—he h.,s long held courts of law iii ah-! iiorrcitce, *■ ir reasons best known to himself; lie compelled the captain of the Macedoni an to siga..a certificate, that the plundered property was Spanish. af< -rwhich the word cotidenimtion floiveil from b*~pen, as casv as oil. O le hundred and for.y-two t'-.o--— "and dollars, was too large a. sum to pass without condemnation, and c trial C.r this purjioae was clearly a matter of superfluitv, when con iemnation couhl be obtained be fore hand. His lordship plays in a variety of characters—he is both sherfc”, ju*gc, jur or and party. We understand that the do cuments containing this intelligence in all its details, hare been forwarded on to the seat cf government, and we trust that our adminis -nUon will not bear with indiccrence this shameful confiscation and plunder ofthe property of their unprotected felin .v citi zens.

Of rice, the import thus far has been, from the Umled States 7700 casks against 12500; from India 41900 bags against 22,800 during the same period in 1818. l’rices ar depressed by the heavy and accumulating stocks oflndia rice, but fine new Carolina is scarce, and there are no.v not more than 2090 casks of all descriptions remaining in the market. The prospect fur this article may be improved, should the crops of grain in France and the Netherlands prove detec tive, (which it is understood to be the case-,) and there are buyers ofreally prime parcels at our quotations; but for inferior there i; very little demand.” Ifsppcars from the following article which we copy from the Bermuda Gazette of the 6tli inst that the Smoke which lias been so troublesome cn our coast, has ex tended itself to that Island:— “The wind has prevailed at this place for several davs, very strongly from the west ward, tccompanicd with some rain. The Islands have been enveloped in a bluish mist, which some some say is smoke from the American continent, whilst others conceive il lo he only tiic vapor exhaled from the Clulph Stream.

Conjecture has wearied itself in attempts to discover something like a rational motive for Ferdinand’s rejection of the treaty. For our own part, we have from the first sus pected the influence of a third hor.-er as the cause—ihe silence and apparent unconcern of our cjivn government upon the subject to to the contrary notwithstanding. We have just received from a gentleman in Spain, in formation of a fact, which considering the strong corroborating circumstances in its favor, we cannot discredit, though wc would gladly do so:—It is, that Ferdinand was not at iiberty to ratify the treaty any more than Don Onis was to agree to the cession of Florida-. 1 The Floridan (so says cur information, which, wc repeat, does not rest on a slight, foundation) seer-, already ceded to Rnglar.d by secret treaty.” O r information adds, that this foot “was Of ficially communicated to the department of state at Washington.” From many cir cumstances which have comelo our know ledge (it is unnecessary to say by what means) we do not hesitate to give it as our opinion, that although it may be the fact that consid erable grants of Florida lands have been madelir the king of Soain, to the duke of Alla gen and others, which were not guaran teed by the treity, and although the treaty has met with all the opposition from the grandees which they or their friends could raise, yet the rejection of the treaty is not ascribed to . that influence—Brit ish intrigue is known to be the primary cause—ihe great obstacle to its ratifica tion. The C. S. sloop of war Hornet having ar rived at-Gihraltar, capt. Read, her comman der, immediately proceeded to .Madrid, with out meeting with any interruption, vrbtch' was much apprehended from llie rigor of llie health regulations. -» From the subjoined order of the Spanish cosifit it will be perceived, that the duke of San Fernando is mot destined to be tbe en voy extraordinary from Spain to the United States, as we intimated a short time sin ere was not publicly known at the last dates front Madrid: fit is stated, however, on the authority of a letter from that capital, that ••the man who has so long guided and con trolled the councils of the. king is to be dH- {raced, or tviil succeed to the office iiiteivd- ;d for the duke Son Fernando ill the United Stales.” From the Madrid Oaz. Sept 14. OFFICIAL INTELLIGENCE. The king has been fiteased to issue thcfol- iotving decree: ■Jin consideration of the merit which has distinguished counsellor ol stale, the ’•take of Saa Fernando, 1 have appointed ihiiniy first secretary of stato.iuid despatch; and in consideration of the satisfactory man ner in which you have discharged the (jutic of the same depai tinent, ad interim, I have i bought proper to appoint you minister plenipotentiary to the court ol Saxony.— You will understand it so, and make the re quisite dispositions for the due e.recutfon thereof.” Signed by the king. Palace, Sept. 12, 1819. To Don Manuel Gonzalez Salmon. A letter to the editors, from a ijentlcnian in Natchez, (Mississippi,) announces the death of Dr. John IT. Robinson. He was a gentleman ofnoordinary character. The traits which have most distinguished bis life have been the intrepidity, energy and secre- sv which fit men tor confidential missions, or for heading revolutions. He was at the head of a former attempt to. revolutionize Texas, which failed from adverse circum stances; and we are confident, that his de cease will be a conclusive blow to the Expe dition fitted out to revolutionize the Spanish province of Texas. Indeed, our correspon dent adds, that the Expedition has already entirely failed of its object, for the want of funds and provisions. We regret the death of Dr. Robinson, who, had he lived, might have been a distinguished as well as an use ful man.—aVat. Intel. \9th inst. A Mrs. Ridding, the wife oT a captain Ridding, was lately apprehended in Eng land for stealing a child.

The people of the territory of Michigan have determined to petition congress lo in demnify them for losses sustain.

The U ilibnorcFe.l. Republican, innj- ticing the above affair, says— “Ij is a well authenticated fart, that the vagabonds and incendiaries, wiio compose this villainous heterogeneous mass of ocean highwaymen, are the very ejectments of the four quarters ol tlie globe; inheriting lrmu the hour whjcli ushered them into the vorld, the dormant principles of flagitious depravity, which,growing with tlivir growth, and strengthening with thou* strength, un fold themselves long before the age of ma turity; and eminently qualify them for the perpetration of every crime in the dark catalogue of moral turpitude. With shame aud indignation, wc confess, many concern ed in this system of buccaneering are Ame rican citizens;, some of them born in Balti more. The squadron under Coni. Morris, it is hoped, will bring those detected in pi» rating lo condign punishment. Should the first vessel captured by him contain a soli tary Baltimorean, concerned either directly or indircclcd in iha foul deed above enu merated, (alter due trial and conviction) his suspension at the yard arm of any pub lic vessel lying in hit! view of our city, might possibly have a good effect.” llr.xRV Mvli.f.stos, esq. governor elect of Ihe state of Delaware, died at liis house in Kent county on the 15th inst.
