General Vives repealed, in the course of 1 (ht« evening, the same tiling to Mr. Pnsquier with whom I had afterwards n short .conver sation o. . the subject. He seemed extremely astonished that the Spanish government should have adopted that course rather than to authorise their Minister to exchange at pneo the ratifications. Since, however, the measure they proposed coincided with the views of the President, ns stuted in his mes sage, and would at all events prevent a rup ture, wc both agreed that no time should lie hist in communicating to you ticucral Vivos’ declarations.

F.xtrort of a letter from Mr. Hush to 1,'ir Secretary of State, dated London, February 15,1820. “ General Vives, despatched by the King of Spain on a mission to the United States, is now here, on his transit to our country.— I have not hi • n aide to command the op portunity of an interview with him. -It may be more asceptable to the government to hear what Lord Castlereagli told me, who has seen him. This was, that he did not fail to say to him every thing of a healing nature as between the United States and Spain. His Lordship added, that lie still looked to an accommodation of all the dif ferences with the same wishes as formerly. General Vives, it seems, mentioned to him, t hat lie was not without a hope of producing a conviction, on his arrival at Washington, that, a3 respects the grants of land about which surli difficulties fmd arisen under the treaty, Mr. Ontahad gone too far in his ad missions ; further than farts would he found to warrant.

LATE FROM FRANCE. new-york May 15. Ily the Maria Theresa, at this port, and the arrivals at Boston, Bordeaux papers to the 4th, and Paris to the 1st of April arc re ceived. The law to suspend the exercise of the liberty of thepress was passed by the French Chamber of Deputies, March 30—for it 130, against it 109. The students of Medicine at Pnris have presented an address of thanks to the 150 Deputies who voted against the law abridg ing individual liberty. Other addresses of the same nature were preparing at Paris. Paris, March 27. The Danish Press cannot treat of poli tics, nor give news, without special nermis- sion. In Belgium many editors have beenar- rested. It appears that from the Baltic to the Pyrenees there is a “ holy alliance” a- gainst the Press. March 28. Yesterday and this day the commission of the Chamber of Peers lias continued to ex amine Lcuvel the assassin. We have communicated to us the minute of a decree dictated by the Holy office, which was intended to rivet the chains that the people of Spain have just broken. They assure us it was ready to be executed.— This decree consisted of It articles, princi pally directed to keeping out of the country books that were disliked by those who is sued the decree, and farther to restrain the domestic press. March 20. There is a report in circulation that a dis position to revolt has been manifested among the troops in Prussia. Notwithstanding the extreme watchfulness of the government, the Spanish news is knowm to every one.— Prussia has not forgotten that a constitution was promised her as a reward for her efforts In favor of national independence. The con stitution, announced in danger, refused after victory, is the object of all wishes. We are assured that some superior officers, sincere friends to the King, have recalled the pro mises made to the people, and have insisted on the necessity of fulfilling them, These officers it is added, have been broken, and the troops have loudly called for them to be reinstated. We are ignorant of the conse quence of this affair. A daily paper announces as a report, that un explosion, like to that of Spain, seems to threaten the kingdom of Italy. The move ment began at Bologne, and the example Was soon followed at Milan. A unanimous determination was manifested for the inde pendence of the country. The Revolution ists demand filr their King the Arch Duke Reynicr, with a constitutional government. March 30. They say that a courier has brought to the Austrian embassy despatches which confirm the report, which we have already given, concerning the kingdom of Italy. A letter from Bordeaux, of the 4th ult. states, that “ troops are on their march to Bayotme; probably a storm is gathering which may hurst on Spain. The Holy Al liance will perhaps assist Ferdinand. If they do, farewell to the tranquility of Europe for # long season. A postscript to the above says, “ Italy is in a state nearly like that of Spain previous to tlie establishment of the Cortes.” “ The two late laws passed for the restric tion of the press, and against personal liber ty, are extremely unpopular." From the continuation of the discussion Of the law against the liberty of the press, it *’ probable it will he completed and promul gated on tin; “ dark day.” It is said Mina has intercepted a corres pondence from Madrid, of the highest ini port,nice ; and he will not communicate it out to the Cortes. An ultra journal announces this day, with a triumphant air, that Alava, Guipuscoa and Biscay arc nearly in insurrection, to re-es tablish the throne, and arbitrary power. It is confirmed that agitation prevails in Portugal. Tlie Baitish pride, before which overy one abased himself, excites at this day a daring indignation. The English are often publicly braved, and advised to relieve the vountry from their presence. We are as sured distinguished persons have already been designated by an independent party, to Propose to the Cortes at Madrid a Fcdera- Bon between the two people of ancient lbere March 31.—Persons of all classes eagerly subscribe fur the relief of the victims of ar- bitrary power. Among the signers are La bile, La Fayette, Benjamin Constant, and many other Deputies. ” hat a satire on the ministry ! What a founded in the Wc.nv.lli of argument or the veal of party. Upon the character of such reflections there cun be but one opinion, and against the desolating tendency of their ut- lernnre, nil good men, must with one accord, raise an uplifted arm. There is a peculiar impiety in the heresy that ought to deliver ovqr its author to nil future recollection im pressed with un odium, that no political pe nitence could obliterate mill no national in dulgence should forgive. 1 for one am wil ling that all such treasonable attempts, and the reward they merit, should live upon a more imperishable record than a newspaper paragraph, and while your misdeed is barely going the rounds of surli a petty chastise ment, the last best interest of this govern ment would seem to demniid the aid of a more efficient tribunal. Coming fresli from a contest, far from be ing inglorious, with the literary champions of England, your opinions are calculated to have a weight, which on this occasion they do not deserve, and which on all occasions it befits tlie common virtue of this country to nblior and resist.

In Italy, Prussia and Portugal, a disposition among the people to shake off the galling yoke of despo tism has been recently manifested. The par ties to the Holy Alliance, (or in other w ords, the Sovereigns leagued against Liberty) are not inattentive to what is pp-sing. It is said they will interfere in the auairs of Spain— Let them beware of doing so, lest they stir up another storm not less terrific than that of the French revolution, w hich deluged all Europe with blood, and some of it royal blood. If foreign troops be called on to rein state in arbitrary power, the perfidious and pusillanimous Ferdinand, his destruction will he the first, but the least to be lamented, of the fearful consequences of such a policy. The dates from Liverpool arc to tlie ]2th and from London to the 10th ultimo. Dis content appears to be the order of the day in England, Scotland and Ireland. At Glas gow, Paisley and other places, placards w ere placed on the walls addressed to tlie people of Great Britain, calling upon them to come forw ard immediately and effect by force a revolution in the government; also enjoining on tlie manufacturers to abstain from work after a certain day. Obeying this requisition, tile weavers and other workmen quitted their labour, and the streets were co vered witli crowds of the idle and disconten ted. Tlie want of efficient leaders and the intimidation of the military had induced ma ny of them to return to their work. On the Cth of April a body of volunteers, conduct ing some prisoners through Greenock, were attacked by the populace, and a smart skir mish ensued, in which 20 of tlie latter w ere killed and wounded. The mob broke open the prison and Bet at liberty all who were confined for sedition, but no others. Ac counts from Madrid were to the 28th of March ; the 9th of July is the day fixed for the convocation of the Cories. A private letter says, “ Terror is general—Devolution or Death is the order of the day. Vie are not without fears for the lives of the most august personages.” None of the foreign Ministers at Madrid, with the exception of our minister Mr. Forsyth, bad congratulated the King on his acceptance of the Constitu tion. They wait for instructions from tiieir Courts. Qj/* While bathing on Sunday evening in the Oconee river, Mr. James Nf.vins, young man who had lately come to this place from New-York, to superintend tlie Book- Bindery of Messrs. Ginn Curtis, was un fortunately drowned. The untimely fate of this industrious and respectable stranger, who promised to be a useful citizen, is deep ly regretted. 0^7* To give the whole correspondence between the Spanish Minister Vives and our Secreiary of State in one paper, we have been compelled to exclude many other arti ties. In a letter subsequent to this corres pondence, the Minister of Spain denies posi tively his having intimated to Mr. Gallatin, as stated by that gentleman, that he was au thorized, in the event of satisfactory expla nations from our government on certain points, to deliver the Floridas as a pledge for the ratification of the treuty. FOR THE SOUTHEltS RECORDER. To Robert Walsh, Jun'r, Esq. You have the credit of being the first Amc rican who has ever looked upon the sc.pera tion of these States with a fixed and imwa vering purpose, and if you are not the last you may be fairly considered as at large up on tlie lenity of public justice, and li ving upon the. bounty of a nation’s forbearance. I n view of the communion of peace arid happiness which this country was enjoying, and in re membrance of the fellowship of trial and suffering it had endured, to contemplate its disunion and to give to that contemplation a regular process of deliberation, required an induration of feeling, and a cool calculating contempt of consequences, of which I will risk a hope you are tlie exclusive and unen vied •possessor. Your speculations are not .only "pen and wary, but are cxultmgly re peated, and equally contemn an excuse, Must they again an unsatisfied avarice ? Is this un- irk not finished P Is Missouri to be. up as a holocaust, by a new and hy- il philosophy, for the sin of the “ In stitution” of slavery ? Will nothing t the overwrought charity of your Priests and the solemn but sudden philan thropy of your Patriots ? By your account it would seem that mulling would, for you have denounced the devoted people of Mis souri and declared they may yet be rejected from the Union, and as Liras your influence and exertions can attain that result, presiding over wliut you doubtless consider the first paper of the Union, and coming down with the full force of your name, you have entered into the conflict under no expectation of a repulse. It is true you arc a person of superior li terary acquirements, but it is equally true there is no ora. more sensible ofthe fart than yourself, and in you there is offered a singu lar instance that neither prudence nor mode ration are necessary to tiieir support. Do not however imagine that berause you are the. defender of American literature, and that because there is such an overweening herald ry in the title, and such a proud defiance in the s stvle of your paper, that you alone hold and dispense all the disposable learning of the nation; some ungleaned remnant may yet be left upon the extended domain of know ledge, at least enough to convict you of that want of principle and consistency, common to every toot of party, or self-sufficient hire ling of a faction. You have on a former occasion quoted an old maxim “retorquere non est respondere,” which I mean to make applicable, if I can, to my present undertaking, to shew, if your own evidence can be relied on, that your mind, on two subjects at least, has submitted to a regression from former opinions, and which, either to justify or support, will re quire something stronger than the prurient intrigues ofDc Witt Clinton, or the hollow professions tif Rufus King. In your ‘ Appeal.’ a work beyond which there is nothing which could have added to your fame, but which will now he read with the mingled sentiments of admiration and contempt, you have, among other tilings, mainly labored to prove bow illusory were the speculations of England with reference to the instability of our Union, and how unjust were her strictures on the character of our slavery—1 propose to lay before the public, some of your views on those two points, and, ns it is your favorite mode of arguing, to do it in your own language, which, without us ing an unmeaning compliment, in well suited to the dress and expression of any opinion where modesty k, sincerity is neither sought nor expected. At the close of the revolutionary war, not withstanding the English had suffered much in men and money, and greatly more in pride and character, yet “ finding the trade with America retained and even likely to be in definitely enlarged” they yielded to the most open demonstrations of joy that the struggle was over—But say you “ it is much more certain that with multitudes of all classes, the dismemberment of the empire left an ulcera tion, ‘ a galling wakefulness’ w liich found re lief only in the most extravagant and malig nant hopes ; and that the experience of the war was lost upon the majority of the nation, in regard to the character and destinies of the colonies. On the conclusion of peace, it was confidently announced and believed, that tile confcdcracy of the S:,jti s w ouid quickly be dissolved, .hat the fore.es of Great Britain remaining a none them, might be called in to quell the disorders, which the seperation from the mother country must produce; that a seconJ revolution would happen, and re store them penitent and submissive to her dominion. Such w ere tlie topics of conso lation administered hy writers of authority, and greedily swallowed by men in office Lord Sheffield embodied them in a pamph let soon after the ratification of tlie definitive treaty and took, by general consent, the sta tion of oracle, which he ought never to lose so marvelously have events confirmed all his opinions.” The most prominent methods of testifying opposition or contempt towards an opinion is by direct open contradiction, or by bitter sarcastic ridicule, ami when one or tlie other is employed for such purpose, it settles the complexion of tlie opposing assertions, from which a change is perfectly inadmissable upon any other ground than an honest con viction of error. In the first part of the a hove quotation, you have roundly treated the idea of a dissolution of this confederacy as being founded in the most “extravagant and malignant hopes." And in the latter you have, indulged in a keen pleasantry of irony against the “ oracles” of Lord Sheffield, which at least ought to have secured you from all future attempts to realize his lordship’s predictions—If he had known as much of the pliancy of your sentiments as tlie present ge neration, he might have entertained strong hopes of relief from your satire, but in his day, bad as it was, there was nothing known in the science of human duplicity that could have enabled him to calculate upon you as proselyte. But you add further “ the rei; of Lord Sheffield's sapient opinions was na turuliy prolonged in Great Britain, by the comparative insignificance of the military and naval establishments of the United Stales under the federal administration; their total disarray after its overthrow ; the simplicity of their institutions, and tlie vehement alter cations of the parties into whirl) they wero thrown. It beef.itie anew, a common belief and loud hope with the ministerial politicians, tlint America might yet be regained hy arms or by arts; and even those of the opposition settled down in a contemptuous commisera tion of her weakness and sinister destinies. The rencontre of the Chesapeake and Leop ard nmde it quite certain, for all parties, that tlie Americans were rewards ; that the Irish had fought tiieir battles in the revolution ; mid that there was only food for merriment or pity in the. idea ofthrir meeting, at sea, British skill and valour. The Edinburgh Beview told confidently of 1 the feeble and shadowy texture of tin - federal government’ had * little hopes of a system of polity liich, in nn advancing society, tillered no prizes to talents and no distinctions to wealth,’ and foresaw that ‘the slender tie, which held the United States together would hurst at once in the tumult of war.” It must lie. a subject of great surprise to the friends ofLord Sheffield, and )M-rimps of gratification if it came from a source that could he depended on, to find that his sapi ent opinions, after passing from the country of their origin, arc obtaining a currency in the very one, where they ought most to he detested, and that too through the agency of a person w hose whole artillery of wit had been aimed at their overthrow : But as great as is either their surprise or gratification, it bears no proportion to the exultation of feel ing that doubtless they experience, from the conversion of this second Saul of Tarsus, to the faith and belief of opinions he had so long and so contemptuously persecuted; and although this change may be neither sincere nor lasting, as it has boen effected at the e.x- pence of his political honesty, and without a motive connected with truth or duty, yet as his unalterable confessions, they must for ever silence the clamour of Ins strictures, and while they confer on the object of his detrac tion a triumph over his candor, they will c- qtially serve to commemorate a very unpro fitable folly. But as ridiculous as were the speculations of Lord Sheffield, they had infinitely greater claims to sense and respect than those of Air. Walsh ; the latter is not a foreigner, he has not written at tlie close of the revolution, and under the torture of keen disappointment, he lias not written when the “comparative in significance” ofthe army and navy of the U- nited States remains to lie redeemed, lie hns not written when tlie “ simplicity of our in stitution*,” lias, on that account, wanted ci ther strength or respect, nor haa he w ritten when the “ vehement altercations of parties” has either been unusual or seditious. Far o- llierwise, he lias “ embodied” and submitted his reflections, when “ ministerial politicians” havejiarted with tlie delusive hope of gaining America by “ arms or arts” after a well tried experiment of the use of both, as our gallant armies in tlie first case, nnd your party in the ’list, can fully testify, an experiment which he they will not soon he anxious to repeat, un- as a “ society with a uniform face" would be more favorable to its success. When A- meriean cowardice 1ms ceased to gratify the pride of the land of our origin, ami when American prowess, “at sea,” has neither been food for merriment or pity to British skill or valour.” To an ingenuous mind no wider field of indignant, contemplation can be pre sented than barely to assert that Lord Shef field was an Englishman and Mr. Walsh is an American. But before I dismiss my remarks upon this last quotation, I would enquire of you how you intend hereafter to meet the Edinburgh Review? Will you candidly acknowledge, that so little reward was “ offered to your talents” that the “ slender tie which held the United States together” ought to “ bui - 3t” a- snnder? Will you own that the contempt for tlie “ distinctions due to wealth” will and ought to overcome the “ feeble and shadowy texture of the federal government?” You will have to do this or worse, and if the last be possible, you have given strong proof: that it will be neither unsuited to your genius or inclination. ATTICUS. Washington, May 11. After the Message form the President of the United States to Congress, on the subject oi'our relations with Spain, there can he but little doubt but th.it that mat ter will be suffered by Congress to rest where it now does ; in the expectation that the Cortes will do what is just in relation to us, by causing the treaty to be atiiied, and the faith ofthe Spanish na tion to be redeemed from the reproach which has been east upon it by the refu sal of its sovereign to ratify the treaty. An attempt wag made yesterday, to ob tain an expression ofthe opinion ofthe House of Representatives in lavor of q different course ; hut, the previous ques tion being then called, and the call being sustained by a majority of the house, the motion was overruled. There appears, indeed, no probability that Congress will ijndcv present circumstances, no urgency demanding it, authorize the President to cause to be occupied any part ofthe ter ritory in the possession of Spain. [.Vat. Int.] The proposition moved some time a- goby Mr. Clay, looking to the expediency of making an appropriation for an outfit and salary for such minister or ministers as it may be deemed proper to send to any of the Independent Governments of South America, was yesterday agreed to in the House of Representatives by a mall majority. The difference of sen timent betw een those who supported and those wiio opposed this resolve, is per haps not great, being a difference of form rather than of substance. There is no member of the House of Kepresenta fives, probably, who would object to an appropriation for compensating any Min ister whom the President with the con sent ofthe Senate, should think it proper to send to any independent government in South America. The real question was, therefore, whether the appropria tion should be made prospectively, or concurrently with the appointment it self, when the Executive shall think lit to make it. One thing is pretty evident, that this decision of the House is consequent on the disclosure of the result of the negoci- ations respecting the treaty with Spaiu, as indicated in the documents this day published. A bill hns passed the House of Repre sentatives fixing the time for the next meeting of Congress to take place on the 2nd Monday in November, instead of the first Monday in December next. Be sides the Iwgo quantity of unfinished Uu.* sincss, it is probable that the Manufac turing Question, and the unsettled state of our relations with Spain, had n bear ing on the decision ofthe House of Re presentatives on this question. A joint resolve for suspending the op eration ot the act of this Session for n- tnending the Revolutionay Pension Law, has passed the House of Representatives. The proviso added to the resolve, on the motion of Mr. Foot, authorises the Pre sident to suspend the payment of the pension ofnny pensioner who in his opi nion, is not entitled to a pension under the law of the present session, and not under the original law, as heretofore sta ted. In the course ofthe. Debate yesterday, Mr. Clav (Speaker) avowed his ihten- tion shortly to retire to the pursuits of private life. May 13.—Much business hns been done in Congress within the two past days, i The joint resolve for suspending the operation ofthe uct to amend the Revo lutionary Law, has been rejected in the Scnote. That umendatory act of course bears immediately on the Pensioners. This information ought to be generally diffused, as well as copies of the nmernla- atory act, and ofthe forms prescribed hy the War Department for carrying it into effect. It particularly behoves the friends of the uniuformed, indigent nnd really meritorious pensioner, to look to this matter, and to look to it promptly. The bill fixing the second Monday in November for the next meeting of Con gress hns passed both houses, h requires only tlie assent of the President to be come a law. The same may be said of the bill to amend the Navigation Act. The bill for a loan of three millions having passed the Hones of Representa tives, is now before the Senate. The resolve respestingaii appropria tion for a Minister or Ministers to South America, which has passed the House of Representatives, does not, ns the Morn ing Chronicle appears to suppose, re quire the assent of the Senate. It is an abstract expression of the opinion of the House of Representatives ; and it is pre sumed is not intended to be made the foundation of any legislative act. Just before the hour of meeting last evening, nn incident took place in the chamber of Representatives, worthy of note, from its not having been fatal in its consequence. The chain by which was suspended the massive brass chandelier hanging in the centre ofthe Hall, gave way, as one of the attendants on the House was lighting the lamps, nnd fell with o force proportioned to its great weight. The servant was thrown some distance from the ludder, and escaped unhurt ; and although the members were gathering fast in the Hall, and the fragments of tlie chandelier covered a considerable space, it happened the seats immediately within its reach were not occupied, and no member was seriously hurt. A more providential escape can scarcely be imagined ; the weight ofthe chandelier being several hundred lbs. May 16. The First Session of the Sixteenth Congress was terminated, about 4 o’clock yesterday afternoon, by the adjournment of the two Houses sine die. The session closed in perfect harmo ny. The President attended at the Ca pitol to receive and sign the bills ; and tlie Heads of Departments were also there during great part of the day. No session of congress, that has passed under our observation, has been marked by more, deliberation nnd coolness in its closing scene....Nat. Int.
