To derive all the adetateges contemplated from these fortification', it was seeseary that they should be judiciously posted, and casstrected with a view to permanence. The progress. h moo. has therefore bees slow ; but, as the difficulties, ia parts heretofore the least esplored and known, are sur saoaatsd, it will. in More, bee more rapid.

The Speech, the long looked-for and wished-for Speech of the President of the United States Con gress, is now arrived ; and no consideration of con vsuisami could have prevented us from giving it Wire, at ones, or making a few necessary remarks on its varies* important topics. There we a time when the Government of Gnat Britain gave the tone in some degree to the nisesures of all the Cabinets of Europe. Now the bass is came when that of America, once a small Colony, is about so occupy the pre-eminent of being looked np to by all the nations of the earth. Many will reds by the fact ; bet the destiny of the Cabinet of out Vital Kingdom is se it were !peg- THE bound by fate itself. It cannot, without a great plunge. I quit the old deep and disgraceful rut or track in which its cumbrous weight has too long retained its wheels. A Heresies at the helm is wanted, — is loudly called for, to extricate the unwieldy ma chine, ere the violent attrition of its axle sets it all OD fire ; for who can say bow long the oil, which has long been applied to its immensely consuming wheels, can last! Let new help, then, and new harness be applied to the car, or let the whip be taken from the hand which now holds it, and ap plied to the backs of the animals who ought to feel its lash, for leaving it in the mire in which it is now seen. STOCK KXCILISGE, ONE O'CLOCK. The Stock Market declined yesterday afternoon to MI for the Account, and after various fluctuations it closed at 691 ; the cause of this rally was the publication of a more favourable statement of 'the revenue than had been previously reported. The market opened this morning at 691, and have con tinued tolerably steady about that price ; they are Low 691 bu”lrs. Money is very plentiful, the con tinuation from this Account to the next, viz. Febro ary, being only f per cent. THE REVENCE.—The Courier has every year, and even every quarter, congratulated the commn nity, for these twenty years past, on the favourable prospect of the nation's Finances. The account is, as we have before observed, of that Jams-faced nature, that an interested accountant may make its progress favourable or otherwise. The balance sheet, however, whenever it must be exposed, ex hibits the result of the wooden-legged man run ning after the hare—the distance is the greater the longer he runs :—so, too, are we every year further from the goal at which we are running, i.e. the pop meat of the National Debt ! ! Now we shall like to see one of the national salary-paid Clerks cow tradict the following brief statement of what nen believe to be a +Townie of Britain's Finances, as tit as it goes ; it being a datum, admitted or allied, on which much Revenue truth or falsehood sir be built. But we Finn soon hear what oer greet CHANCELLOR of the EXCHICQCER (as great OS WU Sir GEORGE, afterwards Lord LETTELTOPI), has to say upon the topic ; he is, we believe, now coming his lesson over. Tbe deficiency of England and Rentland. as already published and admitted by the Chancellor, from Jan. 1819, to Oct. 10, 1819, about - 1100.000 Deficiency of Ireland fur the year, about - - 490,9001 1990,000 Allow only 7110,0001. to Um Woe merited, or *de oestat to brio Moo remitted, from Jely to Jos.

We believe it is admitted that our distresses did not operate 011 our Revenue until July ; therefore, we will endea• your to put a clear state of it before our reading from that period, viz.:— I Actual deficiency, from July ato October 10, 1919. is compared with the correspoadier period of last year - - - - - 1 . ,1110,9110 Ditto, from 10th Oct. 1819, to 6th Jan.

Real and actual deficiency of the Revenue for the half year from July, 1819, to Jesiwary, 1810 21,989443 The fate of no one mum on the score of political conduct has struck the public as more severe than that of Mr. KfT4LOCH. It thews us that bed as our own condition is, that of Scotland, as far as its laws differ, by the terms of tbe Union, from oar own, is still worse. This patriot Magistrate bad seareely openeJ his mouth upon poblis abuses before be . was beset, and the fouodittou of his ruin laid. Though we know he is greatly pitied, yet is the circumstance scarcely alluded to by any public writer of his own country, and by very few of this—a dreadful omen of what we say expect, if the Crown and Ministers persist in the system they have lately begun. Rua/worth tells as, that le lOW, Jamas I. published a Proclamation, which Imbeds any one from censuring the scandalous !nlaitinet of his Ministers. One might easily *A git* it was against such a State Paper as this that Mr. lErfaocci bad offeeded. Arrived at posh • paint as we are, it wilt not surprise us if the dia bolical sentiment of thettie Bishop of llocnarrea, the people of England have nothing to do tlilb * laws bat to obey thew" be acted epee, MI dist no we will bi 'Bowed to turn his eyes itiltilsts of State.

Was fsver a sentiment uttered more capable of exciting , digest, horror, and detestation , tha n this, in As, swop of Peers, by a British Prelate, udder the, atimideiration of " the Pilot that weathers& the doilia," Not satisfied with punishing these whe *sly complaio of the most tleaneic Dila. .... I . - SPORTING nrrsLuostrat. NMN . . ruinously extravagant maggots; it 11 well known that Ministers emplof tke Of the impoverished people, to tempt the immi virtuosi part of them to watch and spy Over ecniduet of others; thereby establishing a system of terror which makes it dangerous for friends to stand Op in behalf of an oppressed fellovr-subjeCt, whom they, nevertheless, greatly . esteem in their hearts. A melancholy instance of the truth of this state of things is ieeh ih the case of the indignant upright Magistrate, whose condition is universally pitied, but scarcely spoken of. Thus, under pretence to procure public tranquillity and enforce respect to their own arbitrary measures—such. as the late Circulars of the Home Secretary of State: the very CONSTITUTION of the Country ii disregarded; and a legion of spies maintained and spread among the oppressed subjects, who make their weekly and daily report to their adjutants and commandants A. R., B. C., and C. D., at head-quarters; and as much secret-service money is spent is this way as would compensate the abolition of the tat on Bait, and thereby leave the poor hard-working man to eat his meal, with a relish, which now to hith is insipid, by this vile and cruel impost. hiLT/INO AT 1748.-rrAtiintiolive. lax. & • psiir: • 10 I foe a, kv„W6ltbe, d. by Maud. out of Lisette 6to 1 apt Plesisrrla. • 10 19 1 apt 9, 014 Ist Solids • 17 to 1 apt Stotler to bloslast .04K8. 1 f. out of Sorcery RIDOLOWOirthr: ley cuss. to I asst Pliklarrie 7 to 1 apt c. oat of.

Sailed the Perseverance, Clark, for Lisbon. We have, in this day's STATESMAN, gifted a Oboist excellent letter, written by Mr. JOHN QUINCY ADAMS, to a distinguished German, on the subject of Etnigration to the United States. As well u that the subject of this ipaper is important, its composition is at once elegant and simple : it con tains not a single epithet of meretricious ornament, and, as being written at the instance of the Govern ment of Washington, it cannot be made too public. We apprehend that, if the writer were as amenable to the Scotch laws as was Mr. KINLOCH, he might be sent to the place of his ancestor's incarceration, viz, the Tower, for sedition ; since he says, at the eed of the 4th paragraph or section, that " THE GOVERNMENTS ARE THE SERVANTS OP THE PEOPI.P:, AND THEY ARE REGARDED Al SUCH RV TIE PEOPLE, INIIO CREATE AND DEPOSE THEM." The negociations between this Government and that of Spain, for the further supply of 10,000,000 of dollars from the South American colonies, are not yet terminated. It is stated, in pri vate letters from Madrid of the 22d ult., that FERDINAND hesitates to make the cession to England, apprehending that he will require large amounts of specie for the use of the armaments which are preparing for the subjugation of the revolted pro , vino% of South America. We understand, however, Bs' Messrs. Melt and Pau, the British Commissioners at Vera (*rut, who were engaged in transmitting silver from Mexico to this country last year, have received in *Unctions to continue there, ender the expectation that the Spanish Government will ultimately allow the amount of specie sought for to be sent to England. We hear that a large portion of the silver, intended for the use of Government, and contracted for by a well known Jew house in the City, is at present on board these vessels iseekted I. the Ms by the Ice.-01i- LAW INTILLIGkWCA. COURT OF NINO'S RIENCRI, JAR. 7. Litlerfal Peper.) • The following extract of a letter, dated Moga dore, December 4, contains the moat complete ac count of the state of the plague in that place:— " Feeling hihly interested in possessing the best in formation en t hat subject, I took rare to ascertain the daily somber of deaths, and noted them, with all parti culate connected with them, regularly in a journal which I kept for that purpose. This commenced on the 23d of •Aegust ; and I Rod that the total number of deaths, from that period to the present time. amounts only to 184, in which are included 44 doubtful cases. or of persons who hod died from natural canon. From the want of me dical men of skill and experience, the tree nature of the disorder has not been clearly ascertained. The symptoms correspond with those of the plague in the appearance of large tumours on the bodies of the patients ; but more than two-thirds of the persons attacked by it recover, Mar an illness of eight or ten days, and the disorder has bee* principally cou6ned to the *black population, esm *hilly female slaves. The European residents, with the Ammeters, officers, and crews of the different vessels which visited Mogadore during the above-named period, ta mped the prevailing disorder. When the existence of I the infection was ascertained at Tangier, and its sp. czh to Megadore seemed certai n, the g reater p art of determined to shut up their respective establish *eats, and to avoid all communication with the natives, snaps under strict regulations ; but findingibe mild assure of the disease as it progressed from tbe south ward, the houses of the European and native merchants semsined open. without any promotions being used to yard agates* the effects of the disorder." M. In Fayette has addressed the following letter to the Editor of the Moniterr:- - Paris, Jon. 1910. " Sta-1 resit in the Moisiteer of to-day. that I was satteired in 1792, for having wished to eassitreite at the Ailed of of army. 44 This is the brat time that I have ever replied to the any of those varier factions, who uoderstood each better than was suspected, upon the object of France, and procuriog sentence of outlawry whist me.
