that the Spanish war is drawing fust to a dose
The trescliery of their General, and the want
of union Si energy nmong the people of Spain,
will perhaps compel the Constitutionalists to
make a virtue of necessity and compromise
matters with the French. The Paris Conslitu-
tionnil of August 30tb publishes n Madrid arti
cle of the 19th of the same month, which says,
Rumors arc afloat that negotiations are en
tered into with the Cortes of Cadiz, and ttiat a
Constitution similar to that of England, con
sisting of two Chambers, is about to he grant
ed to the Spaniards.” Such a Constitution
would likely suit the majority of the Spanish
people better than one of stronger republican
features but the objection to this or to any
other arrangement prescribed by the French
i^, ttiat it will be presented for tbfir accept
ance ut the point of the bayonet, and coercion
is not more patiently submitted to by nations
than by individuals. A government of their
own formation, though constructed less wisely,
would certainly be more agreeable to the Span
iards, and consequently more likely to be per
manent.
But however much the French maybe in-
rliued to relieve themselves from an embar
rassing situation by accommodating matters
on a liberal plan, it is not to be doubted that
all the influence of the Madrid Regency, and
of (he Russian Ambassador there, will be ac-

“ We had hoped that our city would es
cape this fearful visitation, as there have

which could possibly give rise to any appre

overflow of the Mississippi, which, particu

A west of England paper cautions
bleachers, manufacturers, and others,
concerned in the cotton trade, against
allowing strangers totnspect their works.
The. following reason for this caution is
given in a Liverpool paper:—“ We
understand that there ts at present, to
England, an agent from the U. States,
who is apparently engaged in the manu
facture ol machines ol a particular des
cription, ami that, under the pretence
of supplying the various rnunutacturing
establishments of the United Kingdom
with such machines, he is finding his
way into these establishments, in order
to make himself acquainted with the lo
cal improvements ol each factory, and he
is actually engaged in making models
and such local improvements, which mo
dels are regularly exported, in casks ol
lintseed oil. This agent, we under
stand, very lately sent out a complete
series ofmachienry in that mode of pack-
n g, for the spinning of cotton, and of
U.u very latest inventions.”

The disease appears to be of a very ma
lignant character, and generally cariies off
the patient in four or five days.”
Iri a private letter, the peculiarities of the
disease are described as follows:
There is no uniform mode of attac k.
Some become suddenly wild and frantic,
even while pursuing their ordinary business,
and apparently perfectly well, so that it re
quires the strength of 4 or 5 to hold them.
Others are differently affected. Pains, vio
lent and excruciating, attack the head, back,
and limbs—violent pain and burning skin
succeed—-vomiting, and great irritation nl
the stomach—weakness, fc death One of
our physicians, a most icspectablc young
man, was taken in a singular manner, lbs
spirits were unusually excited—he laughed
— danced—and sung all the songs he could
think of, and appeared to be perfectly hap
py. Other symptoms soon occurred, wh ell
too plainly indicated his situation. He was
soon numbered with the dead !”
“ You can form no idea of the distress and
suffering in this city. Coffins can hardly be
had for the dead. Carts going in from the
country on business are seized for the pur
pose of carrying nut the bodies. Tlie sick
frequently lie down and die without reme
dy, and not a soul to hand them even u cup
of cold water!”
Washington, Oct. 1.
A new question, it appears, is about
to be agitated, in a pint ut our country
at least, viz.: the expediency of con
tending with the British government, for
the l ight ol the free navigation ol the tit.
Lawrence—or, failing to obtain it as a
right, ol negociiting for the purchase
of it, and with it, ot the Canadas, it the
right cannot be separated from them. A
North Carolina Correspondent favored
us, a few days ago, with some hints on
the subject ; and we insert in the pre
ceding page an article holding forth in
ducements for a serious consideration of
this subject. It has been suggested that
it ,s intended to connect this question
I with the Presidential Election. We
hope a question of such transcendant
importance, as that of doubling the extent
of the Territory of the United States, will
not he connect**! with any thing of su
transient aniBore, and comparatively in
fgrior mai' 11 i tu ^ e i a3 *l |e question, which
of onr eminent statesmen shall fill the
Presidential chair. We consider the
matter, so far as it is proposed to pur
chase the Canada?, to be of portentous
magnitude, and, in any view of it, of
great importance.
We have copied this article, to shew
what is argued in behalf of this proposi
tion, in the various views of it, and not to
show what is our own impressions upon
it. This we shall perhaps do hereafter,
when we have had time to collect lacts,
and investigate the usages of nations in
relation to navigable ways.
The subject is new to us, not that we
have not before thought of the possibili
ty of the Canadas being, at some future
day, annexed to the United Slates, but
because we had no idea of its being se
riously proposed during the probable
duration of nr live*. At the first glance,
we are opposed in tuto to the acquisition
of the Canadas, even if practicable, for
the same general teasons win h made ns
perfectly indifferent to the possession ot
Texas. We have territory enough, and
to spare.—A'at. hit.
Caucus nominations.—We continue onr
selections from country papers, from which
it will be seen, with pleasure, that the great
blow aimed by the American and tlie fede
ral pavty against caucus nominations, has
been arrested by tlie principles and good
sense of the democratic party. There is
one voice in this state in their favour, and
this great bond of union will not be severed.
Much depends upon this state in the ensu
Thompson's Island, (Kni ICest )—We have
the satisfaction to inform our readers, and
tile public generally, that the reports as to
the unhealthiness of the, station at Key West
have induced the Government to send out a
Special Mission, for the purpose of examin
ing the causes of the disease said to he pre
vailing there, and the. prospects of its conti
nuance, tire. with full authority to adopt any
measures which the situation of tlie squad
ron may seem to call for. Com. llodgers,
the highest officer of the Navy, has voiun-
tet-ied his services on the oecadmi, relin
quishing for the time bis station as Picsident
of the Board of Navy Commissioners, and
the comforts of domestic life, for a duty
w hich can have no charm for him but t at
of rendering an important service to the Na
vy and to his country. Four of the oldest
Surgeons of the Navy accompany him.
The object of this Mission is to examine
the state of the Squadron and the locations
of the island, to make report thereon to the
government, to take such immediate step
in regard to it as the interests of the serviet
-hall appear to require, and, if it shall be
found expedient, to remove the whole squad
run to f’ensacokt, or to some Northern port

cowardice, he would defend them at the hazard
of Kis life; and free from the least tincture of

was another distingutdiiug characteristic—! e

love of good name, he certainly was—for he
possessed tlie most stoical indifference to praise
— He prized it lighter than the “ moonshine*

to the dictates of selfishness and contracted pu-
liey ; and indeed tlie most of hi* conduct in
life appeared to be inspired by a high romantic
enthusiasm, abstracted from alt private and
personal considerations

siate of feelings have I known him to depart
from tlie most honorable principles. This Iri-
hule is paid by one who has a perfect know

step the limits of deserved praise, when to In-
irinre eminent qualities 1 add all the social vir-

that lie had paid something like nine hundred
dollars for it; Hint the Editors of tlie two other

and many deaths had taken place. It
affords ti=, however, pleasure to state,
that Commodore I’orter had recovered

A letter to the editors of the N. Y.
Statesman from a correspondent nt New
Orleans, draws n gloomy picture of the
state of business in I lie Western Suites.
The writer says that even New Orleans,
tlie great • emporium of the western
world, is not exempt from these embar
rassments. Many persons are without
employment, and industry i* paralyzed ;
failures are frequnt ; the country people
are unable to pay ihe merchant ; rents
are lint about half what they were two
years ago ; and many houses and store-
stand empty. All that prodigious fabric
of steam* bouts has been entirely ruined.
The boats change masters every day at
reduced prices, home v.hich cost se-
ven'v or eighty thousand dollars have
hei » sold for no more than seven or
nigh thousand. We have in this city,
*a)S the letter, five or pis auction stol es
constantly full to tlie top with imported
dry goods, which are sold at one-half,
one third, cr even one-fourth of their
lir-t cost m Korflpe, W it It these good*
tho whole country is deluged,
