PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE. " PAWS, Anus T. • " By intelligence from Carlsruhe, of the Stst of March, we learn that the Princess of Wales has left that place for Erlangen, where her Royal Highness pays a visit to the Dowager Margravine of Bayreuth, her aunt. Her coming to Paris soon is talked of. If she does arrive, the Court will be embarrassed bow to receive her. " Several of our journalists have given the addresses of the Crown. Prince of Sweden ( Bernadotte) almost complete, suppressing only (by order of the public• Censorship) the two following passages :. 14 They have connected with these reports the name of a fa mily which you have rejected. • I had nothing to do with this family. You know that it was not I who inSuenced its fortune."--" The annals of the world prove that no Prince ever octupied a throne, except by the consent of_the people, or by conquest." The Prince's speeches were read here with great avidity thus they become more remarkable than the conspi racy which gave occasion to them. A great number of half.pay officers continue to embark both for the United States of America and for the Spanish colonies, to serve in the ranks of the Insurgents. About forty of these officers are to set out in a short time." _ _ " STVTGARD e .

"-Bra—His Majesty's Vice-Consul in New Orleans hosing informed me that two expeditions are fitting oat in that City With the greatest baste ; the one ma ritime and the other to act by land, with a view to renew the scenes of horror, robbery and assassination in the interior provinces of Mexico. Independent of the volunteers engaged in the province of Louisiana, according to the advice. I have received, a body of adventurers is expected to come down from Ken tucky, in order to assemble in the Sabine Bay, and undertake a march into the interior of thence of Texas, commanded by that monster Bernardo Gutierrez, Toledo, Anaya. Humbert, and their fol lowers. On the Bth of July last, two brass six-poun ders were seen publicly shipping in New Orleans, and it is said 1000 muskets were also to be embark. ed, the whole being intended to serve in this same expedition. Citizen Petit, one of Bernardo Gutier rez's Adjutants, and actually is the service of these States, lam assured, is going as the Chief of these vagabond Americans; and that he has even enlisted several of the officers and soldiers under furlough from the army of this Republic. Their number already amounts to 500 men, and for the maintenance of these troops the necessary provisions hive been shipped. The maritime expedition, according to the assurances I have received, is to bt commanded by the famous pirate Vincent Gambi, who not long ago was liberated from capital punishment, through a special pardon of the Court of Admiralty in New Orleans. lam also informed, that the Barataria privateers now carry their prizes to the Sabine Bay, from whence they introduce their pillage into New Orleans, and it is supposed that the army of vaga bonds belonging to these States, in which I am in formed there are only five Spaniards, is to leave the City of New Orleans commanded by General Hum bert, will be conveyed to the above Bay, and from thence ascending the Sabine river, will soon be on the Spanish territory. " I have communicated the whole Of this infor mation to the American Government, demanding, in the most strenuous manner, that orders should be issued to disperse these adventurers ; to compel them to return inland far from the frontiers; and that the promoters and abettors of all such enlistments should be punished with the penalties prescribed by the • laws. I doubt whether my demand will be carried into effect, because, besides the Administration being deaf to my complaints, it would be incompatible with the idea that has been formed of emancipating our possessions in this hemisphere. " Of the whole of this I inform your Excellency, in order that you may take due note of the same, and adopt the necessary measures to prevent the in jury that would, result if the same is carried into effect, as I no longer doubt of the projected attack on the province of Texas. Goo preserve yOur La cellency many years, acce Ste. kc." 111011 TIN WIZ TO THE SAM!. " Sm—Joseph Bonaparte has just passed through this City on his way to Washington. I am assured he has brought a large quantity ot money and jewels, and that he intends establishing himself in these States. Notwithstanding this man, in any other country, would be tlespicable in consequence of his want of taker,. and the state to which his family is reduced, nevertheless he may cause us wow inju ry here. where perhaps he may find persons who, either as admirers of Napoleon or devoted to his person, may induce him to enter into some rash enterprise, with a view to enjoy his money. In consequence cf this I have forwarded a circular to all his Majesty's Consuls in this Republic, instructing them to find out the quantity of money and jewels he has brought with him, in case among the latter any should be found belonging to the Crown of Spain; what am Le makes of his money; what persons associate with him ; what are his designs ; sind, in a word, scrupu lously to watch over all his movements and actions, and inform me of the same without delay. If they should ascertain any thing of importance connected with the kingdom of Mbxtco, Isbell not fail so notify the same to your Excellency, • in order that rots may be able to adopt proper measures. " I have informed your Excellency, in my ante rior dicAtCbCll, that two Expeditions were preparing in NewOtlean‘ formed out of vagabond and seder . tious people, who have for•object to 'evade the in e rior provinces. In consequence of the energetic re presentations I have addressed to the Government ot this country, complaining of the scandalous manner in which armaments were tolerated in the interior of this Confederation s I have been able to induce the President of these States to issue the Proclamation of which I now incline 'a translated copy to your Ex. cellency, as by it - the Justices and other Authorities are charged to pursue and arrest the persons enlisted in said expeditions, according to the tenor of the laws. But as these clandestine machinations are in' conformity to the wishes of the greatest part of the Citizens of this country, and as nobody will take the trouble to pursue these revolutionary folks, I have given ceders to the Ring's Centel in New Orleans, which place is the focus of these expeditions, to ap. pashithd and preetwow before the law -xlietimranae. 'satiated in this nefarious conspiracy. The dismal and critical state. to which I find myself reduced, through the-absolute want of funds, has Pretreated' me from taking more active and ef ficacious steps to arrest these Rebels, as for this money is necessary, and I am entirely without means, having - received no supplies from your Excellency, who is the only one so aid we in the present day. The Intendant of, the Havanoah, to whom I have addressed myself, has been deaf to' my necessities, and I here stand without credit or means, with a thousand cares to attend to, and suffering a thousand privations de 'grading to my character; and what is more painful to me than all, seeing the service of our Sovereign suffering for the want of funds, without being able to prevent it. The expenses of this office are ray con siderable, and the estraordinaries arrin general of the greatest urgency. If I had been possessed ot funds, I might have claimed and obtained the testi 'tuuon of one of his Majesty's corvettes of war, est i .- tuned by the Insurgeoti of Cunha ens, which - late ly entered New Orleans under the ffiw ot those allies. I also might have been able to paralse me Expedi tions formed against your Xtrigtl ,, m by the New Or 'leans Rebels; belt the same 11300731 frustrated my seal and all may exertibas in favour of the tranquillity of your valuable kingdom!: I do mot spetify to your Excellency more cues of a similar nature, not to trouble you any further, but they are innumerable; and the bitter recollection of the service suffering for the want of fonds. now (11s me with grief. I thefts fore solicit your Excellency to do every thing in your power to send me some funds, with all the haste and urgency my situation requires, and that you would be pleased to aUow the Commissioner I seat you three years ago to be the bearer of them, viz. Don Felipe Fatio, to whom please to pay over all the arrears due to this Office.—Coto preserve yolk Excellency many years, &c. &c. &c.

India Roods 64 64 prem. the Circular to which we alluded yesterday, and whiel was improperly called a Warrant, is in fact a recommendation to persons holding of the salaries of which exceed £l,OOO a•year, to contribute 10 per cent. towards the public exigencies. It bears date the Slit of March, was addressed to the Public •Depart- . mints, and enclosed the clause added to the liamt Act by the Committee of the House of Cdmracniu It states that the Lords of the Treasury intend huh- ' oidially to Vail themselves of the opportunity af= forded by the clause, of contributing to the public service ten per cent. upon their salaries and emoita ments, and to direct the like deduction to be made from the Officers and Clerks in the Treasury, whose income from their situation amount to 1111,000 and up wards, and Who are willing to follow their Lordships• example. The Circular further desires the Heads of Departments to communicate the contents to tke per sons under them receiving not less than one thousand pounds per annum, and to report those who are anxi ous to contribute in the above ratio to the public, service. We cannot divine why souse of our contemporaries should tans np their noses at this proposal. One day they cry out about the great public expenditure, and when Ministers thew a disposition to reduce it, and set the example by lessening their own salaries, then they cry out es meanness 1"—" paltry savings 1"••• useleu parsimony 17 We assert that the recommendation Is a proper one. We go farther and say, it should be enforced. These men do not now pay the Tax on Income; and the residue they would receive without any of therie duetions to which the distresses of the times have subjected the incomes of the -other members of the community, from whom these very salaries are drawn. • , • CHINA TRADE: By the latest accounts that have reached thie coun try from Canton, there were, when the vesiel which brought them-..an Ausericanee lass Mae ferirtwe shifts, chiefly Americans sad Swedes, loam us the Ritter with Tear, for Zweite I Nominally these vessels are bound to Continental Ports, but their earyees are &Mad for Greet British, Ned ffrelaal 1 —How can this be t By smuggling in the Channel, and by massing the rest of their cargoes from the Continental Ports. Let not the Reader—let not Ministers imagine, that we are starting a merely possible case. Oar infor mation maybe relied on. All of these cargoes are in tended for the British Market, and even much Eng. lish capital, is embarked in these speculations.—lt is not long since the Captain of a vessel of the same description wrote to a friend in London—se lam now loading teas for --, but if; when I reach the, English Channel. your Ministers, have not reduced the duties, but little of my cargo will be landed these, and my fortune will be made."—This vessefhas since passed up the Channel, and the Captain alluded to has informed his friend that he cleared *60,000 for his own share by the voyage. The fact we have stated speaks• a volume. 0 that Ministers could instantly be induced to act upon it! They could, by use blew, ninon the rivals who have built their speculation on the high duties ch arge d on teas in England. Let Ministers recollect, that every farthing of gains thus pocketed by foreigners, from English consumption, is eventually lost to the me lb* of the country—that is, to the revenue itself, with, a sent besides which may be estimated at tiler cent. more for the outfit, &c. in foreign ports. WEST INDIES. Oa Wednesday we noticed a misunderstanding which exists between the Governor and Colonial As. thosities in a Transatlantic Dependency. We now add some other particulars It was the sword warrant of arrest issued by the Colonial Legislature. which the King's Attorney- General of the Settlements so triumphantly resisted. His person had been seized. and be was imprisoned for a day and night under a previous warrant which came upon him unawares. On t hi s arafeictition,, the Governor sent an order to the gaoler' to iet his . prisoner at liberty: the gaoler demurred I but the . Governor wan resolute. and sent a military force to release the captive. The gaoler, rather than stand a regular siege, with a lawyer within doors. and in army outside, prudently capitulated, and delivered up the object of contention.

SOUTH AMERICA. A letter from Paris, received yesterday morning, contains some intelligence received in France f. m South America, of rather an interesting descriptio n; but the writer has omitted to give its date. st „ ic , as Follows : Accounts from Chili state that G nerdi CAhtei% bad been chosen President of the new Reivo:'.c CARIaA was a great admirer of the America-1...—.

One of them in particular, we learn, has pas,e,i through vicissitudes of fortune, in the military evcntc of his country, that have a greater resemblance to romance thsfft td fact. By the aid of SW) men from Buenos Ayres, ..General imam MICHAEL DE CARtRA fioally 'exlsilled - the Royalists and Spanish soldiers from me of the finest regions of the New World. " In the early stage of operations, the Royalists, like the first Spaniards who enslaved the South, availed themselves of superstition, denounced the In. dependents u enemies to GOD and the Km, and marched against them with an additional cross on their banners. To counteract the influence of tl..a stratagem, CARERA assumed the motto of VIRTU, UllOlOll, AVO " Spanish wiles, on arriving at Lagoira, were put in requisition. to transport troops to Margarett , , whilst Caraccas itself was threatened by the Patriot,, who were carrying on a predatory warfare in tlut province." From smut Spanish correspondence, intercepted, and published by the Republican Party, given in ano. diii column; it will be seen, that the Spanish Am bassador to the United States feels himself greatly embarrassed by the aids afforded by private duals to the cause of the Southern Revolutionists— and still more by ea akohas west of fruit. It the Royal Government cannot find even the funds neces ' sary for the support of its accredited agents, where is it to find the means for subjugating a whole country determined to be free Would any Goverament whatever, under such hopeless circumstances, embark either as mediators or allies to endeavour again to bring the South-Ame rican Colonies under the yoke of Old Spain ? Why then should fears be entertained that our Ministers may be induced to lend •their aid to such a project? Why suspect them of leaning to a line of policy which would subject any other Government to charges of =data and insanity ? •••••••=o=l. • • INSURGENT PRIVATEERS. The brig Dolphin, Joins Penntneo, master, latcly arrived in London, from Jamaica, was brought to off Cape. Oriental, Cuba, on the 18th February, when in company with the brig Matilda, of Greence:, Conflux, master, for Liverpool, by a schooner under the Royal Spanish colours : an Officer, and part cf the crew of which, boarded the Dolphin, and plur dered her of all her stores. The Officer was particu larly solicitous for Rum, and unbattened the hatches to search, but not finaing any, he insisted upon having a tierce of Coffee, which Captain PRONTING refined to deliver to him ; and he had much difficulty in deterring him from plundering the cargo. They also overhauled the Matilda, and plundered her ir. a similar manner: after which they made sail for the shore of Cuba, under which they stated they anchored every night. She was a long low schooner, recently coppered, armed with a long brass 18-pounder. mounted on a swivel just abaft the foremast, and manned •with about sixty race, chiefly English and Spaniards. The Officer who boarded the represented himself to have been master of a Droicr, at Kingston, for about three years, and stated the name of the schooner to be the Congress. The schooner taiiesognised by many of the Dolphin's crew, who had sean.her about a month before at Kingston. — On the 20th of February, when off Saddle Hill, ;a the ' . lsland of Cuba, the Dolphin was repeatedly fired at, and compelled to bring to, by anotlacr schooner of about 18 guns and 180 men, appareall, Atnericans,. who, after detaining him about an how, suffered him to proceed without boarding him.—l - 1 , 1 colours *ere blue, white, and lilac, horizontally.
