gAV^NAH republican. Thursday Evening, Dec. 12,181G. ==== ^i*E PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE. Tliis exposition of national affairs is now be- f r e the public. To dwell on its particular , r jts were useless, as every individual whose '"inil » s pervious to reason must readily per- ® j ve the justness of its demonstrations. The f r j en ,l of America cannot but feel elated at the flourishing state of the finances, and the anticipa tion of an early disengagement from that bur then of taxation under which the late war ne cessarily laid the country. Peace with foreign powers,‘though productive of temporary evils. hr .dutfing our markets with merchandize, and consequently depressing domestic mauufac- tmes is a great auxiliary to national prosperi ty. Commerce, under such auspices, must S o»i resume that vigorous enterprise for which our merchants have been so distinguished, and still die carping of the factious, who have so of ten predicted the ruin of our trade. There is. indeed, some difficulty apprehend 'd from the arrogance and perfidy of the Algerines, but, it may be justly inferred, that it will be speedily adjusted. The lute bombardment of the pirates’capital and the destruction of their rovers can hardly fail of lowering the demands preferred against this country. At all events, our fleet in the Mediterranean is fully powerful to render protection to our merchantmen visi ting that sea. The president’s silence as regards the ridieu lous demand of the French minister for the re- jiioval of the Baltimore post-master, and the af fair of the Russian consul at Philadelphia, lead to the conclusion, that no serious misunderstan ding is likely to occur between the Muscovite and Gallic cabinets and America. Spain is represented asAvilling to enter into amicable arrangements in relation to the late outrage committed on our national vessel in the gulf of Mexico: but that power seems to be play ing a double guine. A collection of letters are said to have been intercepted, in which the Span ish envoy has endeavored to embroil this coun- fcos-roj, fiovember 9$. Late from Russia.—Yesterday arrived at this port ‘he U S. brig Prometheus, A. S. Wadsworth, commaAder, o6 days from St. Petersburg, and 28 from Elsineur. This is the vessel which carried out Mr. Coles with desnatches from the American government to the court of Russia. She arrived at St. Petersburgh on the 27th September, and retained there till the 20th October during which time the F.mpcror was absent on a journey' We understand she lias brought despatches from the American rharge d’affuirs in Russia, and from Mr. Coles; but on account of the absence of the emperor, it is pre sumed they are not answers to the communications of our government, for which probably Mr. C. remained at St. Petersburgh. The Prometheus brings no political intelligence of im portance. Mr. Pinkney had not arrived. The Prometheus passed Klsineur on the 27th of Octo ber, hut had no communication with tiic shore. No American vessels there. Died, on the 4th instant,after a painful illness. Csouge Haig. By bis d'-ath, his family are de-orb id ,,i'„ valu ed friend; society, of a virtuous cili/; n; and lav r ; ub- hc, of a gallant soldier. JPree School, The subscr.bers to the Free School, met at the Presby terian Church, on (he 9th inst. for the purpose of elect ing a hoard for the management of the affairs of the said institut oii; when the following ladies were duly electee, vim—Mrs. Taylor, Mrs. Jackson, Miss Hunter, Miss Ro berts, Miss Barnes, Mrs. Casey, Mrs. Cleveland, Mrs. J. Huntei, Mrs. F.v„ns, Mrs. Isaac, Mrs. Ker, Mrs. Dun ning, Mrs. Coppee.

Np ■e 72 try :;i some dispute. Besides, we hear nothing* ’beaccommodated [ of reparation for the murder and imprisonment of our countrymen and the confiscation ^ptji^eir property in the different harbors of thh* Spanish Alain—no satisfaction for the violation of her neutral territory by the English, during the late w.i:—no explanation of the causes which induc ed the ‘Spanish authorities to suffer fugitive- slaves from this country and Indians to erect t fortifications in, and make predatory incursion* from, the Florida*—nor no apology for the in- ju«tiri;tble imprisonment of our consul, Mr. $!| Meade. While these violations of our rights remain unatoned for, it cannot well be premised, that the intentions ofSpain should be viewed in a friendly light: but rather that fear alone pre vents her from indulgingL^r bigotry and ven- j geance, by carrying fire sword along out- shores, and plundering and butchering our ma rine. Our government rhould be on the alert: it •ought not to leave her the means of taking ad- ' vantage of the exposed situation of our southern frontier the first moment that arupture between * us and any other power may happen. Her re.^ cent conduct towards this country would justify the immediate occupation of the^Tloridas, and the issuing of letters of masque and reprisals against her commerce. Such steps Would in fu ture prevent the recurrence of the. enormities vdiicli were committed by the Hidians on the defenceless inhabitants of the south and give a Jine ofseacoust from Passamaquoddv to the Mis sissippi impenetrable by any invader, and pre vent the existinginiractions of our revenue laws. But. had vve no cause of complaint against Sun in, the occupation of tiiose provinces would bu periectly justifiable, on the score of self-pre servation. ;*o long as she may retain them, a portion of our citizens must ;.hvu\s remain sub ject jte the ravages of any nation with whom we may be at w ar, because she possesses neither the energy nor inclination to make her territory res pected. They will continue an inlet of easy ac cess for the inroads of an enemy into the adja cent states: and. as such, should be occupied bv the people who are liable to be injured through them. % Moreover, a state of warfare with Spain could Tint fail of accelerating the independence of South America, whose political existence must, one day or another, be of vast iinpoitance to the North American confederacy. But on this point cur councils appear to pursue a ti morous and illiberal policy. The apprehended •combination ol European nations against us. were any indication ol co-oporatiug with the iu- de^endents exhibited on our part, seems to t» s . a stalking ghost to the fears of our govern ment. When the actual condition of Eu- i$ Considered, this apprehension appears futile. No nation of the vid world is able to present any obstacle to our endeavors, save Eng land. whose intercut would influence her to take si very different course. 'This is no political chi- j THi i a —It is proven by the aid which she now covertly extends to ail the revolted provinces. Why {hen should ve cold-lvartcdly view an oppressed and tormented people struggling for that independence of which we are *o boastful and proud? When this country was contending for liberty, the crowned heads ol Europe, with a view, no doubt, to a participation in our com merce and the humiliation ■>! the nation who had so often itifring-d their privileges, extended us assistance, ami openly espoused out cau>e. Should wh be less attentive to cur interests, or less ready to seize every opportunity ol wresting the weapon from an insidious lot, witn Which he has wounded us? (Right republicans to be indifferent to the extentmn ot theii po litical tenets. Ought th n y not to endeavor to make the rights of man better understood, and gain all the accession of strength to theii ptinci- plws. which are now threatened by the overween ing triumphs ot legitimacy? No time should be lost in adopting measures to ensure the security of South Arherican independence—they ought to engage the earliest attention of congress—-and the American eagle will dart trOirt his cliff* and ’bury his talons in the condor’s breast that is now desolating the fields of Mexico and mountains of Peru. ’ AHtrivhn. ?hip Magnet, Garwood Ph-.Ldcipi.ia British brig Commerce, Riia-rts, B .rbadocs Brig Isabella, Btirgi-ss, M u-Miique Brig Harp, Smith, Philadelphia Barque M: rv, Gnvs'ni.
