« sp * ti»i our relation' with Spain, it iinr ♦ , \pli it ran now be cotmiiunicnt- !. On the adjournment ot’Con^res* in ‘I iv I i«t. the Minister Plenipotentiary ol'thf* United States ut Madrid was in- stnieted to inform the government of Spain tbat, if his Catholic. Majesty should then ratify the treaty, thi* government would accept the ratification an far, as to submit to the decision of the Senate the question, whether such ratification should he received in exchange, for that ofllie United Stales heretofore given.— ]>y letters from the Minister of the Uni ted States, to the Secretary of State, it appears, that a communication, in confor mity with his instructions, had been made to the government of Spain, and that the Cortes had the subject under consideration. The result of the d. lib erations of that body, which is daily ex pected, will be made known to Congress as soon as it is received. The friendly sentiment which was expressed on the part ol the United Slates, in the m^ssi^e ofllie !)th of .May last, is still entertained f>r Spain. Among the causes of regret, however, which are inseparable from the del ly attending, this transaction, it is pro per to slate that satisfactory information lias been received, that measures have been recently adopted, by designing per sons, to convert certain parts of the pro vince. of East Florida into depots for the reception of foreign goods, from whence to smuggle them into the Unite 1 States. By opening a port within the limits nf Florida, immediately on our boundary, where there was no settlo- nunt, the object could not be misunder stood. An early accommodation of dif ferences will, it is hoped, prevent all such fraudulent and pernicious practices, and place the relation* of the two corn- tries on a very amicable ami permanent basis. The commercial relation* between the United States and the British colonies in the West Indies, and on this continent, have undergone no change ; the British government still prefering to leave that commerce under the restriction hereto fore imposed on it, on each side. It i* satisfactory to recollect, tli.it the re straints, resorted to In the U. States, were defensive only, intended to prevent n monopoly, under British regulations, in favor of Great Britain ; as it likewise is to know that the experiment i* advan cing ia a spirit of amity between the par ties. The question depending between the United Slates and Great Britain, respec ting the construction of the first article of the treaty of Ghent, lias been refer red, by both governments, to the decision of the Emperor of Russia, who lias ac cepted the umpirage. Aa attempt has been made, by the go vernment of France, to regulate, by trea ty, the commerce between the two coun tries, on the principle of reciprocity and cquulitv. .By the last communication from the Minister Plenipotentiary of the United Slates, at Paris, to whom full power had been given, we learn that the negotiation had been commenced there ; but serious difficulties having occurred, the French government had resolved to transfer it to the United States, for which purpose, the Minister Plenipotentiary of France had been ordereJ to repair to this city, and whose arrival might soou be expected. It is hoped that this impor tant interest may be arranged on just conditions, and in a manner equally sa tisfactory to both parties. It is submited to Congress to decide, until such ar rangement is nude, how tar it may be proper, on the principle of the act oi the last session, which augmented the ton- iiage duty on French vessels, to adopt o- ther measures for carrying more com pletely into effect the policy ot that a ,t. The act referred to, which imposed new tonnage on French vessels, having been in force from and alter Hie first day of July, it has happened lliat several ves sels of that nation, which lu I been dis patched from Franco belore its existence was known, have entered the ports of tin: United States, and been subject to its operation without that previous notice which the general spirit ot our laws gives to indviduals in similar cases. The object of that law having been me- relv to countervail the inequalities which existed to the disadvcttlUli'' °I the Lnited States, in their commercial intercourse with France, it is submitted, also, to the ''“federation of Congress, whether, in the spirit of amity & conciliation, which it is no loss the inclination than the policy of the United States, to preserve, in then intercourse with other powers, it may not he proper to extend rebel to the in dividuals interested in those cases, by exempting from the operation o ic a \ all those vessels which have entered our ports, without having had the means ot previously knowing the existence of the additional duty. . . The contest between Spain and the colonies, according to the most authentic information, is maintained hy 'he lau a with improved success. > e 111 tunate divisions which were known to exist some time since at Buenos Ay res, it is understood, still prevail, lu no part of South America, has Spaiu m.ulo any • „ nn the colonics, while, in el, and New Grenada, the colonies have gained strength, and acquired rep, U- tion. both for the management of he war j i u whi cb *t hey” have bec u ■ uccessful, and Vor the order of the internal adminis tration The late change m the govern ment of Spain, by the re-establishment of'be constitution of 1812, is an even which promises to be lav orable to the revolution. Under the authority of the Cortes, the Congress of Angostura was invited to open a negotiation for the set tlement of differences between the par ties, to which it was replied, that they would willingly opeu the ne-otiaUon, pro- vtde I the a' know lodgment of their ia’.e- pcndence w .s mnd.iir, basis, but not h'iwiso. lurther proceedin''* !».>. neon them, we are umnlbrmed! No i'tv .no known to tin* govornment to warrant the belief, that any ofllie pow er* e| Europe Will take part in the crni- lest ; whence, it may be inferred, dm- Mitering all circumstance, which must nave weight in producing the result, that "ujustuioiit Will finally take place, on the basis, proposed bv tins colonies. To promote that result, by friendly counsels with other power*, including Spain her- - 'll. has hoen the uniform policy of thi* government. I i i mki.ig in the internal concerns of our fountvy, you will, I pemailed, derive m y a sal infantum, from a view of the several a ■"> V* "hit'll, iii the discharge of our of- ft i d it km, your attention will he drawn.— Among these, none hold, a more important place than the public rivenue, from the di rect operation ol the power, hv which it i* r ’ s d on the people, and, hy its iulluencc in S’ling eject to every other power of the go vernment, 'j’h„ revenue depends on the re- sources of the country, end the facility hv vvaieli the amount required is raised, is u s.iung proof of the extent of the resources, and n, the ehieiency of the government. A P'oiiihient tacts will place this great in- t«'rest in a just light before j mi. (),i the both n* Septemlier, liilb, the funded and floating ' mt ol I.in United States was estimated at one liiiml"ed and nineteen triillions. 'fix hun dred and thirty-live thousand, fit 11. mdn I an fifty-eight dollars. It lu this sum lie ad d'd. the amount of five per cent, stock, sub scribed to the hank of the United States, the amount n| Mivnssippi stuck and of the stock waali was issued subsequently to that date; the h i! vices ascertai led to he vine to certain states for military services, and to individual* tor supplies furnished, and services rendered, during Mm late war, the public debt may be estioi ited as amounting at that date, and as afterwards liquidat'd, to one hundred and titty-eight millions seven hundred a.,d thir teen Ihoiirand and forty-nine doll; s. On the 50th HaptemliPr, Il'.iO, it ninoirit.d to ninety -one millions nine hundred and ninrly- lor e thousmd, eight hundred and eighty- three d dlars, having been'reduced, in that iote.rv :d. by payments, sixty-tix millions eight hundred k seventy-nine thousand one hun dred and sixty five dollars. During this term, tile expenses of the g ivernment of the United States were likewise defrayed, in ovtoy branch of the civil, military, and naval establishments; the publ.c edifices, in this •ty, li i'iug been rebuilt, with considerable dditious ; ext' nsive fortifications have been commenced, and are in a trail of execution; perm intuit arsenals and magazines have been erected in various parts of the Union : our navy has been considerably augmented and the ordnance, munition* of war, and stores, of the army and navy, which were much xh,lusted during the war, have been replen ished. By tin disc.hatge tif so large a por tion of the public debt, and the execution of ■nidi extensive and important op, rations, iu -o short a time, a just estimate may lie form- id of the gieot extent of our national resour ces. The demonstration is the inure com plete, and gratifying, when it is recollected, that the direct tax and excise were repealed soon after the turmination of the late war, an i that ihe revenue applied to these purpo ses has been derived almost wholly from o- tlier sources. Thu receipts into the Treasury, from eve ry source,, to the 30th of September last, h ive amounted to sixteen millions seven hundred and ninety-four thousand one hun dred and seven dollars, sixty-six rents, whilst the pulil'e expenditures, to the same pujod, amounted to sixteen millions eight l.umlred and seventy-one thousand live hundred and thirty-four dollars, seventy-two cents, leav ing in the Treasury, on that day, a sum e-ti- inated at one million ni.*.: hundred and fifty thousand dollars. For the probable receipts ofllie following year, I refer you to the state ment which will be transmitted from the Treasury. Tile sum of three millions of dollars, au thor! red to he raised hy loan, hy ail act of the last session of Congress, has been ob tained upon terms advantageous to the go- vernmeiit, indicating not only an increased confidence in the faitji of the nation, but tile existence of a large amount of capital, seek ing that mode of investment, at a rate of in terest not exceeding five per cent, pec an num. It is proper to add, that there is now due to the Treasury, for tile sale of public hneis, twenty-two million, nine hundred o- uii.eiy- six thousand,five hundred and forty-five dol lars. In bringing this subject to view, I cou- sidrr iL my duty to submit to Congress, wbi'thcr it may not lie advisable, to extend tu the purchasers of these lands, in consider ation of the unfavorable change w hich has occurred since the sale!},a resaonable indul gence. It ii known, that tin: ptirel.uscs were made, when the p ice of every article had risen to its greatest height and that the instalments are becoming due, at a period of great depression. It is prrsUMid that some plan may lie devised, hy the wisdom of Congress compatible with the public interest, which would afford great relict' to these jur- elutscrs. Considerable progress has been made, du ring the present season, in examining the coast, and its various bay*, and other inlets ; iu the collection of materials, and in the cou- struetioo of fortifications, tor the defence ol the Cnion, at several of lue positions, ut which it lias been decided to erect such works. At Mobile J’uint, and Dauphin I- sland, and at the iligulels, lauding io Lake l'ontcbartraiu, materials, to a considerable amount, have been collected, and all the lie ces3ary preparations made, for the, com meuce.ment ot the works. At (.fid 1 unit Comfort, at tlie mouth of James river, and at the Kip Rap, on the opposite shore, in the Chcsapuake Bay, materials, to a vast a mount, have been collected, mid at the Old Point some prugress lias been made in the construction ofllie fortification, which is on a very extensive scale. The work ul Fort Washington, ou this river, will be comple ted early in the next spring ; and that ou the Pea Patch, in the Delaware, in the course ol the next season. ' Fort Diamond, at the Nar rows, in tho harbor of N'tv.-York, will he finished this year. The works ut Boston, Nevv-York, Baltimore Norfolk, Charleston, and Niagara, have been, in part repaired ; andtliu coast of North Carolina, extending south to Cape Fear, lias been examined, as have likewise other parts of the coast east ward of Boston. Great exertions have been made to push forward these works, with tin utmost despatch possible; but when their extent is considered, with the important pur poses for which they are intended—the de fence of the whole coast, and in consequence, of the whole interior, and that they are to last connecting the whole together, combining jscnuii.es there was great difficulty in choosing security with economy, could tint be prtpar- ■ - *■ *‘d without repeated examinations of the most exposed and difficult purls, and that it would also take considerable time to collect the materials at the several points where they w ould he required. From all the light that has been -lied on this subject, 1 am satisfied, that every 11vocable anticipation which ha* been formed of this great under taking, will he verified, and that, when com pleted, it will afford very great, if not com plete, protection to our Atlantic frontier, in the event of another war; a pi otectinw, suffi cient io counter balance, in a single cam paign, with nn enemy powerful at sett, the expense of all these work 1 ), w ithout taking into the estimate the saving ofllie lives of m> many of our citizens, the protection of one towns, mid other property, or the tendency of such works to prevent war. Our military positions have been main tained at Bello Point, on live Arkansas, at (Vmu'il Dlufi', on the Missouri, at St. Peter's, on the Mississippi, and at Green Bay, on the Upper Lakes, Coinmodiuus barrack* have already been erected at moat of these post*, with such works as were necessary for tiieir defence. Progress has also been made in opening commtiiiiealinns between them, and in raising supplies at each foi the support of the troops, by their own labor, particularly those most remote. With the Indians peace bus been preserv ed, and n progress made in carrying into ef fect the act of Congress, making un appro priation for their civilization, with tlie pros pect olT.ivorahle results, As connected e- quatly with both these objects, vmr trade wit those tribe* it. thought to merit the atten tion of Congress, in their original Mute, game is their swtotiancc, and was their occu pation; and, if they find no employment from civilized powers, they destroy each o- tlnr. Left to themselves, their extirpation is inevitable. By a judicious regulation of our t"»dc with them, we supply their wants, administer to their comforts, and gradually, as the. game retires, draw them to ns. By maintaining posts far in the interior,’we ac quire a more thorough and direct control over them, without which, it is confidently believed that a complete change iu their manners can never be accomplished. By such posts, nivtcd by a proper regulation of our trade with them,and a judicious civil ad ministration over them, to In: provided for by law, we. shall, it is presumed, be enabled, not only to protect our own settlements from their savago incursions, and preserve peace among the several tribes, but accomplish, also, the great purpose, of their civilization. Considerable progress has also been made in the construction of ships of war, some of which have been launched iu the course ut the present year. (Mr peace with the powers on the coast of li.irb.ny has been preserved, hut we owe it altogether to the presence of our squadron in the Mediterranean. It has been found <*- quaily necessary to employ some of our ves sels for the protection of our commerce in the Indian sea, the Pacific, and along the At lantic coast. The interests which we have depending in those quarters, which have been muei improv ed of late, are of great ex tent. and of high importance to the nation, as well a* to (lie parties concerned, and would undoubtedly suffer, if such protection was not extended to them, lu execution of the law of the last session, for the suppression of the slave trade, some of our public ships have also been employed on Ihe coast of Africa,' where several captures have already been made of vessels engaged in that disgraceful traliic.

M1 l.LEDULVII-LL, Tui.m.vv, Novruosa 28. The Lilt before the Moose of Repre sentatives relating to the Penitentiary! w liich has numerous friend* in the Legis lature and out of it, provides, 1st. that so much ofllie net to amend the Penal Code as puni.-lie* crimes by confinement or I hour in the Penitentiary, be repealed; but (hat all crime* committed dining the pendency of said act he prosecuted ar.d punished according to its provLions gaily, that offences committed after the passage ol the act, shall be prosecuted and punished according to the provisi ons of the common law and the statutes in force previous to the enactment of the present Pen il Code, and such parts of the Cede sis remain unrepealed by this act. That our Penitentiary E*tabli*!iment i- unpopular, perhaps deservedly so, wc believe there is no reason to doubt.... nor can this excite surprise, since its progress so far lias disappointed the san guine hopes entertained of results high ly henjrficiul from its operation....hopes perhaps too sanguine to he realized un der the best system of administration In proportion to our chagrin ut the fai lure of expectations, not sanctioned by reason or experience, is the extent of our despondency on this occasion. If from Penitentiary discipline was antici pated the reformation of criminals, (and that such is tiie fact will not be denied) how unfounded were such hopes, when the history of every institution of the. kir.d proves the reverse! Bit placing out of view the idea of reformation by means of this institution, may it uot pos sess, or can it not by proper management be made to possess oilier advantages, and such as would render it imprudent to give up tho* early an experiment so im perfectly tried? Are the Legislature quite sure that they themselves are altogether blameless for the uuprosperous state of our Penitentiary !

Since the adjournment of the lust l egislature, puocet din,j* have occurred between tin brunch of the Bulled Slates Bank ut 9avamiuh and the local Banksoftiiui city, which have resulted iu the injury and eudianassmeut of the latter. The measures ol the former iiialilutmn seem to have been lukeii vv.lii a view to universal monopoly, and to have been prosecuted with a singular hostility against tiia stole Corporaliotu. According to the locality and present organiza tion of both, we have found ourselves in an un equal contest.
