We may be wrong. II an wu aliali lie happy to

vinced that we are wrong. Wo think a dlatinc-
lion may be drawn between tin holding an of
fice which ia permanent, and witli a specific sa
lary attached tu il, and (lie peif umauce of a

•Itached to the appointment which lisa been of-
ftred to General Floyd, or whether it be mere
ly honorary, we cannot with orrtainty aay i but
We believe that all that ii intended ur expected
to inch cases, ia, that the expenses ai mild be
paid by government. If ao, It canneit be called
an Office at profit. The case of Gcnerala Adams
'tod Newnan has been advened to. II it proves
toy thing, il proves that such appointments are
put unconstitutional i for bolh these gentlemen

Tbie provee, at least, that the legislature did
Hot deem their appointment as commiuionera
to have diKpiatificd them from keeping their

tty Mr. Crawfurd la of a similar character. The
aommUtca of Congress which wu appointed to
Investigate that allair, expressed lhair approba
tion of it, and that approbation atu sanctioned
by Cqngreis. The period of Service aa a mem-
■belief the legislature commences, we believe,
on the first Monday in November. By that
time, in all probability, the objeet for which
General Floyd has been appointed by the Pre
sident will have been folflllcd, in which event,
we presume all objections to the 'constitution-
klity of Me appointment-will be withdrawn. We
egreo with the Republican, that General Floyd
may fill the Brat Offices in the state. Ilia for

tract from St. Louis that some difficulty bad oc.
stirred between the Ranks am) Foxes, of I he

tractor fur working the United States’ Lead

at the Council, anil the plain talks hf theagenta,
the Imliahs thought proper to give up the point
and express their acquieaence with professions
of friendship. The mines were accordingly
opened, and the mineral was found to he equal
to the high expectations funped of its quality,
A dratractlve war ia said to exist among the

patty Of those Indiana had returned tn their vil

having put on his buoyant jacket and small

We have elwtye moei sincertli regretted
the prnonsl difference between three two gen

•km, end shall take no pert. The only (Ob
ject we liatr commented on, is the different
posilioni maintained by the gentlemen In the
Client negotiation—wAicA was supported by
the lmmdest) oiitione of rational law, and whs
evinced the most enlightened and statesman
like knowledge of the true Interests of the cuun-
try. Upon this subject, onr opinion has been
folly exprened. Mr. Adame, we presume, in
tends considering this subject in another paper
Tliere tosy be great adroit ness in passing from
the defence of hia own doctrines, to a personal
attack upon Mr. Russell—"in carrying," us Mr
Randolph would esy, "the war into the enemy's
reentry;" but the ability of Mr. Adams as a ne-
gucislnr at Client, is the true question at issue,
and If he could succeed ever eo well in injuring
Mr Hntsell, by a personal attack on lum, it
would go bnt • little way in the defence of hia
own doctrines. Nobody is better able than Mr.
Adams to vindicate hit political course, if it be
defensibW— If not, a further war between those
gentlemen ia really trifling with the publio pa
tience, and sporting will) their own reputation
—we have had enuugh of personalities—let us
have a little more about the argument."

same tlky (30tlt May) in the different parts
of tile kingdom.
WeShuTl give some particulars to-mor

that, when we consider the jealous charac
ter Hitt presides over the Spanish press a
bufficisncy of information ia disclosed, in
the authorised publications, to excite fear
that'dpainis shout to be the theatre of
great political agitations. There are
many regular bands of discontented per
sons in Catalonia, and in various other
parts of the kingdom.

he held the place of Governor formerly.

Paris, June 10.—Yesterday, at eight
in the evening, the King received the de
putatien of Peers, charged with present
ing the address voted by the Chamber. *‘
was read by Ihe Chancellor as follows
Sire—Your faithful sutjecis the Peere
of France come to lay at your feet the
usual homage of their respect and love
tlmse regions ! And yet we see with
pride the White Fla$, so long banished
irom these seas, appear there with a splen- 1
dour which recals the most glorious days f
of the monarchy. The French commerce,
owes its security to it ; and during this
terrible crisis the unfortunate nl all na
tions, finding on board of our vessels to
safe refuge, invoke blessings upon the
magnanimous prince who makes so noble,
a use nf his power.
In keeping up, during the preai-nt sea
son, the precastions which have hitherto
preserved the French territory from the
contagion from which the provinces of
the noifh nf Spain have so severely suffer*
eil,your Majesty performs the sacred duty j
imposed on you of protecting (he people
committed to your care ; humanity ap
plauds intentions so pure, anil they caa
be misinterpreted only by that malevo
lence which is incessantly seeking for
iretexts in rekindle the yet smoking
‘brands nf discord and of war.
If insensate attempts have produced
momentary disorder in some ports of tha
kingdom, France, indignant at the cri
minal authors of them, has every where
seen the tronps snd the magistrates vying
in zeal and fidelity ; the approbation iff
your Majesty will be their most pleasing
reward. Impressed with a sense of its
duties, the army knows that to oppose the
factious is tn fight in the cause of their
country. The boldness of the disturbers
gained credit for their number; but as
soon as they could be counted, the most
timid felt no alarm at their chimerical en
terprise. If real misfortunes have dis
tressed some nf our departments, that be*
ncficence, of which the example is always
given by the Monarch and his august fa
mily, has hastened to alleviate them. The
people may rest secure f crime will not
escape the vengeance nf the laws ; justice
is watchful and will reach the guilty.
Your Majesty announces to us that
Hie state of the debt in arrear is at Icngtlx
fixed and will be laid before us. It is
important tn order and to credit that no
uncertainty should exist with respect to
these burthens, the sell inheritance of 25
years of revolution. When once this
abyss, which not long ago appeared bofew
tumless, shall have been closi-d for ever,
nothing will restrain the growth of our fi
nancial prosperity, Then -may the pa
ternal wish of your Majflsty be accom
plished, and all the fathers of families who
support the public incumbrances with s»
touching a resignation will find the weight
of them sensibly diminished. And who
can calculate the extent of the prosperity
which our happy country may then attain
when we consider her immense losses so
recent and yet already nearly repaired,
and those great disasters, the lamentable
traces of which disappear with a rapidity
beyond all expectation i The French
present the tribute of their just gratitude
to the uuthor ol so many be'riefii* ; they
now form only the one wish that hit
work may be permanently suBiained. And
therefore all hearts have been filled with
hope and joy by this truly Royal senti-
mept—" I'lie King will not suffer vim-
leuce to snatch from his people tlie bles
sing which they enjoy.” The benedictions.
Sire, of that people are the only recoin-
pence worthy of your labours. May you
long enjoy them, while you behold tliei
precious offspring of our Kings growltig
up under the shelter of your Throne, ikio-
vidence has not given him to us in vain |
he will follow the glorious example of his
ancestors, but he will leurn mure particu
larly from your Majesty how in the must
difficult circumstances a Monarch may
acquire the affection of iris people auU the
reBpect of strangers.”
The King answered:
“ I am deeply touched by the senti
ments which the Chamber uf Beers ex
presses towards me ; 1 feel the warmest
satisfaction at its eagerness in answering
the call which 1 made upon it, and at the
unanimous good understanding which has
prevailed in its deliberations; it is by
this co-operation that we shall succeed ia
stifling the efforts of malevolence, effort!,
which will be always ineffectual. Ik t*.
with sincere pleasure that 1 announc# to,
the Chamber that, since the day of tha.
opening of the Session, I have received
advices which announce 10 me that the
J eace will not be interrupted in the East;
I'eel a lively satisfaction in informing
you of this.”
