A vessel has arrived at Cork from America, by which we have received accounts of the. proceedings' of Cotgress, confirming the intelligence which we announced on Thursday, on the authority of pri vate letters, that the motion for a Declaration of War against this country, which had been carried in the House of Representatives, was lost in the Senate. [MOM ?RC COMMERCIAL ADVZIMIZI.] A declaration of war with England passed the louse of Representatives on Thursday last by a ma jority of 25 or 30; and was rejected, in the Senate by 4 majority, on which we announce this important intelligence:— GEOROETON. :MISS. Letters of Marque and Reprisal, and direct, Aran. sive, immediate war, I have to-day ascertained, has passed the Lower House, 79 to 49. There are 34 Senators, one sick and one in the chair, both for war. Of the 33 left, it is ascertained almost be yond doubt, that seventeen are opposed to war, and two others are quite doubtful.—They say, that al though they voted for armies and loans, yet as they find the public sentiment runs against war, they will hazard the character of the Administration, in not voting for it now. The Non- Intercourse will proba bly be contittned,and the Embargo will be permitted quietly to expire. Both Rouses adjourned until Monday., Seven o'Clock, e. K. I have the pleasure to announce to you, that the War Question was taken id the Senate this day, and was decided IN THE NEGATIVE. NEW Yo June 9. [/ROY THE NATIONAL INTRLLIOSNCES.] The 'zonate sat a short time with closed doors yes terday, and the House of Representatives for the whole of the two last days.—Report says, that some measure of &decisive character has passed the House, and has been sent to the Senate for concurrence.-4§ The President of the UNITZD STATILS yesterday com municated to Congress two letters from Mr; FOURS to Mr. MONROE, and replies thereto by the SWIM* TART of STATE, which have passed within the last week. Of these documents we have not been able to obtain the perusal ; but we learn that they ens. brace, on the part of the British Minister, an simpli fication of the principles contained in the 4 ' Declara tion" published in our last; and on the part of the Se cretary &nervous exposition of their reek haractei, and incompatibility with our rights and the laws of nations. We learn that the venerable Joni LANODON has de. climed the honour of the support tendered to him by the Republican party, for the °Scoot Vico-President of the United States, for reasons stated in a letter from him to the General Committee. Mat of the absent Members of Congress have returned to their seats. Three Members only of the Senate are yet absent, and not more than ten or twelve of the House of Representatives. RORRST La Roe LETINOSTON, En. having ac. opted a commission in the army of the United States, has resigned his seat in Congress as a Repre sentative from New York. Cadiz Papers have reached us to the 294 alt.— The Duke del INTANTAOO, President of the Regency, had arrived, and a change of Ministers was expected. —Ecto is to be superseded, and the command of Cadiz given to General O'Donnzt..—They contain Bazcarrlatis's account of the battle of Boma, in which he was stated by the enemy to have sustained a total defeat. He retorts the charge, tad accuses the French General of impudence, sad of having ar ropntly claimed the victory. He does not, however, give any statement of the extent of his antagonist's loss, while he admits that that of his own troops " has not been small." By this conveyance we have accounts that General Lacy had, with an inferioZ force, attacked a column of the Preach, amounting to 3,500 men, and Eve pieces of artillery, with which they protected the bridge of Molen del Rey, and rooted them, with the loss of 700 teen, 175 of which were prisoners.

The day before yesterday arrived in this port the Duke del i4FANTADO, President of the Regency of Spain, in the English frigate Bacchante; he was re ceived by discharges of artillery, and other honours correspondent to his high rank.—(Regency Gazette, June 16.) DIARXID. St e, IS. On the 11th, a detachment of. the Royal Guards marched towards Tamnion, and the report was, that they were to protect the road to Valencia, to which place the infrusive Kitg was to proceed ; fiut it pre cipitately returned from Vallieas, without eating the rations prepared for them. The cause of this preci pitation was. the advice it received that Es. Emma- SADO had entered Caine.

Ou Wednesday they opened a new three-mortar battery, a dead shell from which fell on a man's head, and not an atom of his body was left but an arm.

I chaster at two o'clock on the Saturday, where a most respectable party of Gentlemen (many of them coming thirty and forty miles) gave Mr. Cosier!. the meeting, and dined with him. The Judges left the place above half an hour after we reached there. We left Wiuchester about six o'clock. When we ,arrived within two miles of Botley, we were met by, I believe, nearly all the people of the villake, who, in exulting shouts, welcomed the return of our friend. A party of them were prepared with ropes, to drag the carriage the remainder of the way.—They would not be iudeced to .relinquish doing so..—ln a moment the horses were taken off, and the villagers moved on with the carriage, pre ceded by a flag and music, all I s their own pro. curing, and the whole entirely their own arrange. meat; for I do declare to you, neither Mrs% Co,. serf, Miss Conan!!, or, in short, any of us, had the least idea any thing of the kind was in contempt'. film.

Some more Paris Papers arrived last night, but they-do not enable us to add any thing important to our former advice' The minor Journals mention some advantages in Spain gained by the French.-1 The same Penn also give an extract of a letter from Marshal Sumner, in which he contradicts the report of his eommtinicatioo with the Army of the South ' being cut off or interruVed. Advice, were yeiter&y received from Gibraltar, stating, 'that the British Commander in Sicily had taken advantage of the absence of MURAT from his ' dominions, and had ordered the embarkation of 6,000 troops, under the command of General MAIV Lamp. These forces were to proceed to Minorca and Won", when they were to be strengthened by about 4,000 Spaniards, and- the whole to make s descent et the province of Catalonia.
