PAPERS. !The Aram. Item*. of the 9d of December co tahis a letter hods New Brunswick on the .a S of pertiesinAmericat.ofwhieb.the following are exacts: 44 I will endeavour) in this letter, to convey to you an epitome of American politics. as the y atiki many people in this community, which improbably prove serviceable, and perhaps new to yon. 4$ It is said, that the war is merely an electioneer ing job, contrived by those now in power, to secure the next election for President, on whom every officer in the United Government depends. In England, if there is a change in ministry, there are not more than ten or a dozen of the principal (ACC's who lose their places—but in the United States, as there are but two leading parties, and the President is sure to be long to one of them, every person in the employment of that Government inevitably becomes the object of his attention : and the whole list of Federal Officers, from Georgia to New Hampshire, is made to conform with the political creed of the chief. 64 Ynu, no doubt, have heard that the people of the United States are, generally, divided into Federalists and Anti-Federalists ; the former are, or pretend to be, strict adherents to the established constitution as settled soon after the revolutionary war; of this class were Washington and Adams, who had their turn in the chair of State during two elections each, or eight years. The latter, called by their opponents Demo crats, affect to believe that the constitution is too closely oßied to the monarchical system, and wish to. render it more poplar than it actually is. The, fact, however, is, that the two terms are merely !MU de guerre for two political sects, who have as va. rious subordinate opinions as there ate individuals compo:illg them. 44 Mr. Jefferson had his two elections of four years each, and Mr. Madison is in the second year of his second election—these two are Anti=Fedendists, and, as it seems to have become a sort Of tacit establish. meat that no one personshall enjoy more than two elec tions—and as, at the expiration of Mr. Madison's se cond four years, the two parties will each have had their equal term; it now becomes a fair contest of which party the next President shall be. Thtis you see the private interests of the Ins and the Outs,instigate , the strife every four years very much—every eight years still more, but every thirty-two years the coq-, test becomes redoubled both in expectation and vim lence. " The inhabitants of the States from Delaware northward are chiefly Federalists and trader:l those to the southward, principally Anti-Federalists and firmer:. It is therefore not a probable thing that Mr. Madison, who is an undoubted Ali, should make war with Great Britain for the sake of obtaining frees/20r and :adore' right', or that he should exert Its utmost efforts to obtain the Canadas, to become (as they must in case of conquest) an appendage to the Eastern States, who, in his estimation, are already too power ful. To reconcile this seeming contradiction. it was conjectured, by the opposite party, that should a conquest be made of the Canadas, they would have been given up to the French, in order to counterba lance the apprehended consequent preponderance of the Federal States. " So far the acts of the enemy have, hitherto, cor responded with this system; for the New England States especially, apprehensive of such neighbours,' have hung . back fro nk the war." The writer, in a Sobbequent part, o ff ers some re marks on the politics of America as connected with commerce : '• Mint nations are rivals in 'some degree to each other ; the extent of the degree will constitute our in terest. The Americans have too much asperity to wards Great Britain to become very soon her politi cal friends. The very Federalists are more friendly to the French than to the English nation, and, them fore, we have no obligations to shackle us besides those we are willing to wear. If there is any friend. ship; then, it must be of a commercial nature. , 4 We will, therefore, examine to what this amounts. If we draw a line from the mouth of Chesapeake Bay to the head of it, itud thence to Fen Pitt, at the head of the Ohio, we shall have two divisions which will very fairly comprehend, the opt side the Northern, the ether what are termed the Southern States. In the latter, they produce tobacco, tar, pitch, and tur. pentice ; rice, cotton, and some indigo ; many of them articles superior in quality to whatlave hitherto been procured from other nations, and especially necessary to the manufactures of Great Britain. The inhabi tants.of the country, besides, are by ,no means in clined to commerce, but very luxurious; and, there. fore, in taking a large . supply of foreign manufactures and, produce in.return for such essential articles, will field that carrying trade (which if they pleased, would naturally belong to themselves) to any nation who can bring them what they want at the cheapest rate. Now, let us examine the Northern side of this line, and we shall see a people of farmers, fishermen woodsmen, traders, and carriers, all rivals to Gre.t Britain and her colonies, hated by the inhabitants of the Southern States, and incapable of supplying them with a single article, except what they procure Isom other nations. The only object, theretore, which Bre. tish aegociators should have in view, will be to , make such arrangement, with respect to her ow; trade and mannfatures, and with _Foreign nations, as will chime in unison for excluding the Nor thern States from Mg still Me carriers for the Natioas of s and no doubt, in' her present elevated poshion, if she terminates the war with the Statel honourably, the will be enabled to accomplish it." The writer aftenvards characterises the Americans as follows They are," says he, 4 . ever craving, never gratified ; sturdy impudent beggars; too proud to acknowledge an obligation, but sneaking, sly, and circumventing in obtaining the substance oft; guided solely by interest, they will become condescending to any meanness to appease .power which they cannot• resist, though vain, shameless, hectoring, fierce, and insolent, where chance gives them 'a suitable oppor. 'unity to indulge themselves."

They have received from him, with high satisfaction, a new as surance, that on the principal points he agreei with them in opinion, that the Constitution of the Germa nic Confederation cannot be organized in a way more favourable for the general welfare than by restoring the imperial dignity. with such modifications and pr.- ',lieges as are suited to present circumstances. The correctness of these views tranquillizes them the mote, inasmuch as they are in like manner embraced by his Royal Highness the Prince Regent, the Sove reign of a country to which our native Germany is so highly indebted. They, therefore, do not fur al' moment ddubt that the Prince Regent. as well as his Minister, will contribute to the accomplishment of their common wish. With this hope, they beg to enter into some additional explanations on the points adverted to by his Excellency that they may not be ' exposed to the reproach of having neglected any thing in an affair of such high importance to Germany. " According to his Excellency's Note. the chief difficulty opposed to the restoration of the Imperial Dignity in Germany does not consist in the terms of the Treaty of Paris, but in previous negotiations, in virtue of which other Powers have regarded that dig- city as no longer existing. 46 The undersigned having no knowledge of these negotiations, cannot form au accurate judgment on the subj ect; but though they readily believe that the idea o f 're-establishing the Roman Empire might hive been abandoned, as incompatible with the gene ral situation of Europe, and also the idea of renew ing the linperial Dignity, because then it had be come a matter of indifference to the Court of Austria, and that therefore the sole intention then was to unite the independent States of Germany in a federative league, yet. nevertheless, they cannot help thinking that there existed neither the wish nor the power to oppose any obstacle to the internal organization of the German Confederation, and particularly to the existence of a head of that association, invested with the Imperial Dignity. 66 They deem themselves the more authorized to suppose this, as they cannot imagine that any of the high contracting Powers could have any interest in preventing the Germanic Confederation from receiv ing any particular form, considering that that body can in no case assume an offensive attitude. They think, on the contrary, that the other Powers of Eu rope, following the example of England, would una nimously subscribe to the declaration, as generous as wise, which the Emperor of Russia caused to be pub lished in his name and in that of the King of Prussia, on their approaching the frontiers of Germany, by Field Marshal Kutusoff, March 21, 1813 as well as the invitation, dated Head-quarters, at Kalish ; a de claration by which that respectabl: Monarch an nounced to the Gerofan people liberty. independence, and the regeneration of their venerable empire, as a matter to be wholly left to the German Princes and States; in order that the primitive spirit of the Ger man nation might be renovated with greater strength* and unity than ever. But the Court of Austria, from that German patriotism which characterizes it, must view with pleasure an arragement whirl will be best calculated to consolidate tranquillity and concord in Germany; and if, to avoid' every appearance of self-interest in the late great contest, and to remove every difficulty, it may not have chosen at the important moment tit daisies: to advance any claim to - the title. of Empe rot- of Germany, it may still be considered as ea. tremely probable that Austria would not decline re. taming the dignity of Chief of the German Empire, if she thought that she would thus best fulfil the wishes of a nation which she esteems, and if such conditions were offered to her as would enableher to support that dignity with honour and enerAy. 66 From these considerations, the undersigned are convinced that the negotiations which preceded the Peace of Paris by no means exclude the possihiiity of re-establishing the Imperial Dignity, as soon as the majority of the Representatives of the German Na tion shall have assented to the same. N. ither can they sce any difficulties in the way of the other powers of Europe approving of this, especially . if it is consi tiered that nothing new is claimed, but merely the re-es v ta ered blish . ment of a state of things as nearly , as post , Bible the same with that which existed prior to the ression from - which Germany has been so happily z si It, therefore, there be so 'official reason ren. tiering the establishment of a constitution in the AC unlimited forms impossible. it 'viable bt a nature the more easily carried into effect in the interior of Ger- Mails ea the pr orngetives of ilia loPtri Dignity iwotiosed tho Note of ate 1643 of Pu velOiber - , - 10 -- idffiL r AiViiiinual Ware 4 upon, to produce a fear of their being met by Irene founded protests.

It is affirmed, that in every thing regarding the future constitution and internal (*gammon of Ger many, the most perfect agreement prevails between ' Count Munster, Austria, and Prussia.

Lalpole, December Si: For some days past invitations have been Cifetl• lated through all the Provinces of Saxony, to persons in authority and of influence, to induce the Provin. cial States, Town-Councils, and Communes, to pen sent petitions to Congress, demanding, in the named the nation, the integrity of the nation, but without mentioning the King's name. The reasons assigned for this are, that the deliberations of the Congress, as to the fate of Saxony, have taken such an unfortunate turn, that, notwithstanding the presence of the Empe ror Alexander, the diimemberment of Saxony now appears inevitable, unless the nation pronounce strongly against it. These invitations, however, find few par tizans, because they proceed from persons generall7 distrusted ; besides the stratagem is too gross. Ht. therto all the attempts made to convey to the Congrese the sentiments of the nation, have been regarded of crimes against the Allied Sovereigns, and threatened with pumshmeot ; every voice raind •in its favour has been stifled ; numbers of libels have been sires lated against it : and yet all on sousidenabe nation is inked to raise its voice I but with the additional instruction that no mention is to be made of Frede rick Augustus) Who can fail to remark that the sole design of this invitation is to draw from Saxony an indirect declaratirn that she only insists on her inte grity, and that if she obtain that, she is ready to con sent to become a Province of any State whatsoever t We can assert, in the name of every honest Saxon, that the nation will never separate the wish for her integrity truth that of her existence under her King, and that she values the latter as much as she does the former. ALLOaaIIII.II ZINTUNGV I PARIS, JANUARY 6. The ilareuth Gazette, of the 23d of December, says,. " The numberless writings circulated in Saxony against King Frederick Augustus produce no other effect but that of increasing the attachment of the Saxons to their old King ; while the strict prohibi tion of some pamphlets written in favour of the fa. may which has so long reigned in Saxony produces unmixed confidence in their undeniable truth, and at the, same time excites general indignation against the former. A Saxon mercantile house, which had re- ceived 5,000 metal busts of the King of Saxony, sold them all in a few days." We learn from Marseilles that the unexpected r t turn of the French agent who resided at Algiers ; foe a moment alarmed our sea-faring people • but the arrival at that port of a vessel called the Union, which left Algiers a month after the departure of the French agent, has dissipated the alarm. Every thing announces that the Dey continues inclined to makeabi a good understanding with France, and 'that if them are difficulties, of which, however, we are ignorant, they merely arise from private interests. MADRID, DECEMIKER es. Yesterday's Gazette gives a satisfactory accotuß of the•situation of Mexico, in a long detairof the re joicings in the capital of that vast Province, on the first news of the return of his Majesty to his domi. nions. The date of this official article is the 12th of September, when these fetes took place with great so. lemnity. The Government hastens to publish this satisfactory intelligence to counterbalance the reports which the English papers convey to the Peninsula, and throughout Europe. Though the date of the events which have occurred at Mexico is anterior to that of the afflicting details which All the London journals, we begin to doubt the veracity, and !VIM the good intentions of those who unceasingly as. nounce to us the separation of our Colonies.
