A gentleman has politely favoured the Editor d this Paper, (Mariam', Virginia, Gazette), with the following extract of a letter trout his friend iu Fin castle, dated 16th May, 1848:.. "Colonel Anirew - Lewis this night received special message from Christiansburgh, Montgo mery county, communicating the death of his son Mr. Thomas Lewis, fallen iii a duel this morning; and that his o,lllollellt,,Mr. John Wilenry, was just e:piriug at the departure of the said inessati ger.—Thns, it is told : Lewis challenged M•llenry to fight with pistols; the latter declined, but said htlwould tight with rifles, at the distance of fifteen steps—it was agreed to by Lewis, they met, a n d both A!! !

The sailing of the Cork el.perliticm, prematurely announiM ens] repeated twenty times over in the Treasury Journals, has. after a delay at present un accounted for, lit length taken place.

At three o'clock a. la. the Resist- Awe got under weigh, and was followed by the transports. After the greatest part of the latter had passed tht ,Dortesal, on board which Sir Aa- TYDD WETLEALif and suite were embarked, she weighed anchor, and stood to sr a. Oa her passing Carlisle Fort, she received and returned a iodate of Cteen ruts, which guise an interesting effect to a spectacle otherwise peculiarly grand and affecting. At about eleven o'clock the whole had cleared the harbour, and the wind has continued witha pleasant breeze at East since they sailed. Tangier Bey, on the coast of Africa, is the place of rendezvons appointed iu case of the separation of the transports. This Ray is near Cape Sportel, and on the outside of the Streights of Gibraltar, in the Atlantic. The transports have orders hot to pass the Streights without protection.

The .lloniteurs, which have been received in this courtly, contain accounts from Paris down to the 7th of this mouth, and from Bayonne down to the Ist. Even the silence of these papers is eloquent. No express mention of any insurrections in Spain is made; tint the malicious reports, calculated to mislead the public mind, which are alluded to, sufficiently prove that the people could not be kept in total ignorance of the events which are passing beyond the Pyrenees. ',lie indignant temps in which some passages, printed in the newspa pers at • Berlin, are mentioned, as reflecting ou the honour of the French Oatmeal commanding is that quarter, indicate clearly the hostile senti ments entertained towsrds the Patinas MON ARt by NAPOLLON. But the great feature of these Papers is the fact of BONAPA RTE persisting to le gislate for Spain, in other words, to reduce it to his obedience. We see that his Junta continues its sittings sad deliberations. The new Constitution s formed by this extraordinary man, for the future government and felicity of Joseries destined subjects in Spain, as well as in both the Indies, is given in the Men/tear. The re gulations, laws, and enactments, promulgated, are, in themselves, artful, and calculated to im press on the minds of the interior orders, an idea, that, under their new masters, Spain "nil enjoy a Constitution, Civil Liberty, Freedom of the ir'res., and equal taxation.

He is himself an Italian. but if he could doisht of the abhorrence which lin treatment of the POPE 11.4 excited in Spain, it' may rectify his mistake, by casting his eye over the Manifestos and Declarations issued by the in surgent Patriots of that country. In that of Leos. he will perceive, that his attempt to usurp and to &vane of the Spanish Mo narchy becomes infinitely more atrocious, to their estimation. on account cf his seizure of the territoritts of the Church, and his uaproroks ad degradation of its head. In the declaration of the province of Ga " the atheism or Botta- PARTS, and of his followers, together with hi* ilo taction of the Jews," are speetfieslly stated, as rea bring him execrable. Even in the Proclamation of the Supreme Junta cf Seritie, dated the yds f May, they dwell on this feature of his conduct and character, with peculiar animation.

Far from thinking that the Holy Father has .hewn auy want of courage or of euergy—we think that !re has displayed both in his appeal. Vet the ferocious U►urper of his States has not dared to order him be shot at midnight, or to be strangled and thrown into the Tyher, or to be secretly put to death in the Castle*Of St. Angelo. He dares not allow his ven geance the gratification which he did in the case of the Duke D'Eannisx, of TOMMIAINT, or u: PALM. Already he finds that not only t;,l Austrian, but even the Russian Goretainet,t • though subjected to another religion, and anothe r Supreme Chief, ytt have ventured to manifes: the:; common disapprobation nt . his conduct, and to ap peal to his justice !
