" It appesm to us, Gentlemen, useless to offer further ii:ustratioits in support of ti.' s s proposition. tie facts u?on which it is founded arc public and inconteqabl, ; the poasiliiiity of the evacuation of our terriLory, at the eNpiration of three years, was doubtless anticipated by t..eaties ; but, however binding might be the hiendship which unites the threign Sovereigns to our lonarch, confidence. in the state of our country, and in the dispo sition of its government, was necessary to our liberation. It was this confidence that the Duke de Richelieu knew Lim to inspire. In his ncpciations he displayed- the influence of his acknJwledged inttgrity ; and he then reaped toe fruits of the profound esteciu which he had acquired. When he spoke in the name of the King of France, his a..ntinienls were r• garded as unequivr:al ; hid jersunal character was cons;acied as a political { a .rantee.

New York Pliers to the 9th ult. have arrived—The National Intelligence,. gives a brief outline of the dis putes between Spain and the United States. In the first Article it is mentioned, that the United Stales deeply regret the violation of the 'panish territory by the American fortes under General Jackson, and that it was without the antharity of the Government. The second Article rt fers to the cession of the Flori to the Uuited States. The third and fourt Articles give * brief outline of the limits as to territory ; the fifth and sixth regulate the navigation of the two countries ; and the old Treaty is referred to, where it wat agreed that the flag should protect the cargo ; but in case of future wars, if any Belligerent should nut avinow ledge this principle, then the .Treaty ou this subject to be considered void. The last sr isle states, that the cession of :he Florillas shall be considered in full payment ftr all claims of America noon Strain; anti as a gr at proportion of these 2ilictis hare arisen from the confiscation of American property by French otlicers while in the territory ui Smut. these amounts to be tve:ifmtl by the Ulitc Stites, tit it the total may be claimed from the Gdverntnent u 1 Fratice. The intelligence from .. 4 :outh Am'riea is of the most extraordinary des:ription. An American of Monte Video (of eminence, it is stated) has trans. milled to the United States the unexpected intelligence, that the Government of Buenos Ayres, in conjunction with Chili, have resolved on sending an offer to a European Foreigner, of " the Crown of South Arueri. ca." The Envoy war to proceed to France. An expedition, consisting of 3000 men, had been dispatched to Santa Fe. A large expedition apiwn Limo was preparing at Valparaiso. The Message of his Royal Highness the Prince Regent was taken into consideration on Friday night in the House of Lords, upon the motion of the tad of Liverpool. His Lordship stated one or two isupartant facts, in addition to what had been mentioned by Lord Castlereagh the preceding evening. In the first plea*, it was death established, that his Royal High neu possessed by law the right of appropriating the 58,(kOtil. lapsed by the Queen's death, to the general purposes of the Civil List. The surrendering of it, therefore, to the disposal of Parliament .was on'y another proof on the part of his Royal Hi g hness's advises, of their disposition to adept on every occasion real and practicable ewnomy. The Marquis of Lansdowne expressed some doubts as to the princip7s thus laid down in the Message, and conshlenal it to kn. totally inconsistent, at least with the spin', if not with the letter, of the Act for regulating the t'ivil list, waich was passed two or three years ago. In answer to these doubts, the Earl of Live.pool replied, that the principle was asipported by legal opinions taken 0:5 the subject ; and that there was a great difference be tween the sum granted to the Queen, which was granted out of the Civil List, and the sums granted to the junior branches of the Royal Family, which the Noble Marquis had considered as precisely similar. The latter had been granted oat of the Consolidated Fend, with the express understanding that they should revert to the public on the decease of the illustrimis persons by whom they were now enjoyed. With respect to the pensions to he paid to the ser vents of her late Majesty, his Royal Highness was precluded from bestowing them out of the L8,00C.. in consequence of the limitation of the Pension Lis:, as now fixed by law, at )t),0001. Had it not been fir this limitation, his Royal Highness would, of courx. have adopted the example of his predecessors, instead of making a specific application to Parliament The justice of the anangement no one has veutuzed to question. In the House of Commons, several new writs were moved for ; awl among them, one fur Westminster, in the room of the late Sir Samuel Rmailly, by Mr. Broughatu ; who confined hinself, cantnlry to the general expectation, to the simple cueteinary motien. The theneeilor of the Esch:Tax stated, in re l i:y to none observations from sir M. W.
