cause of Freedom and ihe People has pr*:vn : l-
ed, and the entire Liberty ofthc Press rein-
stated. Now Grenada has joined tin? coufed-

Mosquero totuke the reins of Government—
it is about devising wavs and means to meet
its creditors. Union and democracy appear'
to he the sole desire of all Colombia.
Business has resumed its good old footing;
prices good—sales cash. Flour is as high

Wilmington July 20.—In consrquence
of tho heavy ruins which continued for near
ly 10 days, we understand, that in tile ad
joining counties, the piosprct of the farmers
have been much diminished. There will not
be half a crop of cotton. The corn outlie
low ground, is much injured. About one
third only of a crop of that article will be re
alized. There will be little or no fruit of any
kind the late frost having blighted the trees
generally.

The suspicious looking vessel, reported by

turns out to be a United States' schooner,
bound to the Gulf of Mexico. Sheiouchcd
at Beaufort a few days afterwards, and in re
ply to inquiries concerning the pirate snppo.
sed to be on our const, she stated thut she was
the vessel that had fallen in with the Philadel
phia at the time& place mentioned. Captain
Casey’s imagination completed the picture,
by manning her with a motley crew of “ dif
ferent nations.” VVe hope that the burning
scene of the Ocracock pilots has no better
claims to credence.

Translation of a Royal Order relating to
Tonnage Duties.
A representation having heon made to His
Majesty by the Sardinian Charge d’Affairea
in regard to the tonnage duties paid hy the
vessels of his nation in the ports of Spain,
and requiring that sihJ duties should he re
duced to one-third of the amount usml'y ex
acted,on the ground that the S iulmian ton,
ri-ensures much less than that of Spain ; His
Majesty, convinced a* lie is, that the host
mod*; of precluding all claims of this kind is
to reduce the foreign tonnage to the 20 quin
tals contained in the Spanish ton, ha* been
pleaded to declare that in the same manner
.is it is the duty of foreign bhip-mnsters to
present their manifests in the Spanish lan
guage, so also shall it be their obligation in
futuro, to state the measurement of their ves
sel in Spanish tons, ami to produce the rog-
i*tej if required, agreeably to the Royal Order
of tho 2()tii September, 182!).

Legation or Spain.
Sm : In reply to the note which you have
beeu pleused to address to me on the 8th inst
concerning the explanations you desire to ob
tain oa the Royal Ordinance ofthc 2d March
of the present year, convoyed to the Depart-
ment ofSt-te hy the Minister of the United
Slates near His Catholic Majesty, n copy of
of which you transmitted to nu*. I have the
honor to state that the Spanish quintal is
subdivided into four urrobns, of twenty-five
Castilian pounds, the one hundred and one
pounds and thirt y-nine hundredths of the En
glish weight, called avoir du pois.
That is it no! easy to determine with precis
ion ihe mode used in Spain to ascertain the
tonnage of vesse’s,owing to tho variety of tin?
mathcmintl operations which must necepsa-
rilv be adapted to 'lie different shapes of ves
sels, and to the different systems of con
struction made use of by different nations;
That I cannot either say whether a new ad
measurement may be required on the arrival
of a vessel in u Spanish port, inasmuch ns
that will depend on the regulations win* h will
he m ul * to carry into execution the Royal
Ordinances relating to that subject ; nnd
that, not being in possession of the ordinance
2*1 Sept, 182ft, of which you ask a copy, 1 re

Extract of a letter from Mr. Robert Monroe
Harrison, Consul of the United Stoles, at
Kingston, Island of Jamaica, to the Sec
retary ofthc Sta*e, dated
Kingston, 7th Juno. 1831.
‘•As the Small Fox is now prevalent in the
Island, It would be well to instruct our Col-
lectors on the subject of vessels coming from
this port.’.
From the Urorc-ia lWttttenfer.
The State is shaking off her lethargy, and
appears to have taken up the subject of Iu.
land communication in good earnest. Rail
Roads are now the order of the day, and our
citizens generally feel and express an inter
est in the work. We are all disposed for
action, and are only waiting for the proper
direction to be given to it. Our neighbor*
s<» far got tho start of us iu projepting* their
” cunning devices,” thut we are. not under
the necessity of taxing our ingenuity to in-
] vent; it ia only loft for us to imitate. The
difficulties which other communities have
had to encounter, in reconciling conflicting
speculations, and novel theories are not ours!
the way is hot to be prepared, and the public
mind convinced of the utility of theories nev
er illustrated by praqjice. Every thing is
prepared to our hands principles settled, und
theories reduced to prnciice. VVe have on
ly to act. No one doubts that Rail Roads
answer the purposes intended—that they are
means adequate to the transportation of pro
duce—that the value and quantity of our
products call for some cheap and easy mode
of transportation—that the topography of the
country is favorable to artificial commumca-
tion—and that the capital to be invested will
yield a commensurate profit. All these we
premise to be no longer mooted points. The
question is, which shall be the route? It
will be observed by the subjoined letter, that
several gentlemen of Putnam county nnima-
ted by a patriotic and laudable zeal, have
taken the subject in hand. We concur with
them, '• that all local feeling nnd prejudice as
to the particular route of the road, should be
laid down upon the altar of public good.”—
After this recommendation, we were surpris
ed that these gentlemen should assume the
point that iho rail roud should commence nt
Augusts. We will not take upon our
selves the supererogative office of saying
what the opinions of those gentlemen aro
to whom the letter is directed, but this we
can say. that the feelings in this part of the
country are strongly in lavor of Savannah.—
Wo wish all success to Augusta, but wc
cannot consent that the contemplated rood
should be a continuance of the Charleston
Rail Road, hy which the capital of S uth
Carolina will become the outlet and market
of Georgia, while our own seaport will dwin
dle to a miserable fishing town. Our patri
otism—our state pride revolts at the plan.
Savannah was once a flourishing ulueo of
trade ; she may become so again, und as long
as sho ts true to her own interest, the up-
country will give litr the preference to her
rival city. With the general spirit of tlm
1 city
circular, we fully concur—the pluu proposed
of undertaking the work by the co-operation
of personal und private exertion is n good one
nnd equally so is the proposition of having a
convention to devise ways and means for eff
ecting the object.
Claims on France.—This question if a-
bout to present some important considera
tions to the government nnd people of the
United States. VVe have, some late infor
mation about it, not official—not derived
from any of the agents of the adminictrution
—communicated neither from Paris nor from
Washington. We think it necessary at once
to make this explanation, for the purpose of
preventing all incorrect impressions upon tlm
public mind. Tho reader must, therefore,
bewure of attaching more importance io x
than it really deserves. We speak on the
faith of private letters we have seen or re
ceived. We have no prompting, no “cue”
(as the Baltimore Editor ■* pleased to call ii.)
What is ihe exact state of the negotiation
at Paris, we really know not—How far the
French Commissioners have proceeded iu
their investigations—how many Reports they
have in»d<;—and what is their'precise cha
racter—what is the amount of the iiukmm-
lios they ha^e recommended, wo profess not
to know. All that we ure informed is, that
the amount of the indemnities is said not f.»
correspond to our demands and rights. It ■»
said the most fluttering professions of good
faith and intentions are largely extended to
onr Minister ut Paris, but iliat the French
Government has adopt' d a very tomporizh.g
policy—that the gentleman appointed to pr*^
side over the Committee of Investigation is
a warm adherent ofthc fallen Dynasty, par
ticularly hostile not omy to the interests of
th - Claimants, but to the institut o a ofthc
United States ; und that after five month**
d'ffuy, this Commissioner had rejected a fa.
vmirable report made nt their ins^iga-ion bv a
member, whose superior opportunities of es
timating the subject were u<inntte.l 4 and that
they bail substituted another of an entirely
unsatisfactory character. It is also under
stood, t hat the. present King of tho French
has acknowledged the responsibility of Ins
Government for the nets of Napoleon ; but
that, notwithstanding this .•oncession, which
he could not very well avoid adopting, there
haft been great procrastination und evasion ;
and it was the opinion of one intelligent ob
server on the spot, that the present govern
ment will not come to a fair and equitable
settlement, without very great reluctance.—
No fiiuJt is attached to our Minister at Paris.
On the contrary, the highest praise is award
ed to him for tin? ability and zeal with which
he has conducted the negotiation.
Under these circumstances, two different
alternatives have* been presented for ihe
adoption of our government. It is recom
mended from one quarter, (having no official
relations, as far as wc can understand, with
the United States,) that further appeals to
the justice or generosity of France be prompt -
ly discontinued—that our Minister be f rth-
with instructed, either to obtain restitution,
or to demand his passports; and that the
whole question be submitted to the next Con
gress of the United States for their cogni
zance ; tor them to determine on the proprie.
ty of withdrawing all diplomatic relations at
least, if not adopting a non-intercourse act.
His contended on tho other hand, and will*
great, perhaps irresistible force, that such a
measure might ho atttemhd with the most
unfortunate results to our country—VVliat, :t.
is said, are tho alternatives presented to u* ?
Compromise ofthe Claims—Non-intercourse
— or war. Let those be submitLjd to tho
American People—and wh.it w/iT they sav !
How far will they go ? Will they rush into
non-intercourse, or war, for the sake of tho
French Claimants? he quarrels between
nations or individuals, is it not easier to ad
vance than to recede ! Is it not better t<>
make another firm and liberal appeal to the
justice and generosity of France—lo attempt,
it possible, to make a fair and equitable com-
promise of our Claims—say at 40,000,000 of
Francs? Such is said to be the opinion of
some of our friends in France, (having no
connexion ut all with our Gnveriiment,) and
such seem to them to be perhaps the true in
terests ofthe United Slates.
It is all thin while most unfortunttj&for oui
country, that General laifayo*te’s influence
is at the lowest ebb in the Court of*France,
riie only chances ot his again coming info
power, are cither the event of another Ilev-
olution.or the possibility ofthe new Chamber
to be convened in the full being of a more
popular cast. Some ofthe letters from Paris,
represent either oft hose events as improba-
• ,? ^ the very worst sign ofthc state ot
thing* m Prance, thut this illustrious man, the
triend ot Liberty, every where, should have
been shorn of his influence by the present
polit.cs of the French Court.
Richmond Enquirer.
It is said, that Mr. Randolph, finding hi*
health too much impaired to venture to Rus
sia, has resigned his commission as Minister
to the Court of St. Petersburg, and that his
resignation ha* been accepted by our govern
ment.. It is also said, that before his resig
nation was ncccptod, Mr. R. believing that
the elections n Virginia would take place in
June and that hp was therefore ineligible,
was part y induced by this circumstance to
request his friends to announce to the Dir-
trict his wish to decline a poll for Congress.
The annunciation is said to have been made.
Mr. R. is believed to have set sail from Eng
land before this time.
We do not precisely understand *who are
candidates in the district. We are told that
Dr. George W. Crump has been declared a
candidate—We have heard various reports
about Judge Bouldin—of his having declined
—of his being still before people, &c.
