At the opening or the case, we were led to believe that the Company was of very high anti quity, mid that such antiquity would be support ed by very ancient documents ; 1 therefore waited very patiently for a considerable time that the De puty-Recorder of this most respectable town. who had some distance to come, might appear and pro. dace them ; but, Gentlemen, when he came and produced the records of the Corporation. there was a most miserable falling off; fur througliont the whole there was but one single entry that it was pretended related to this Company, and that was in an order of precession of the Corporation, where the words artficuns pictures occurred.— Now if that entry hail enumerated the various guilds of the town, together with their names and the order they respectively took in the pro. cession, it would have been a strong fact to chew that sisch .2 compimy was in existence at that lime; but the words there found, means bakers generally, and that they attended in this pro. million, 'and except this single entry m o l t ', there is ' no rot her evirlenee of its existence above three or four veers beyond the trial of the Carpenters Company.

Ministers were in t/enteral, since the month of November, Isl 4, of the mis sion which brought the Undersigned to London, as Deputy from the General Government of the Confederated Provinces of New Granada, in South America; and although he was onfortunairly not permitted to present the dispatches be brought from that Govereineet for his Majefly and his Royal Highness the Prince Regent, nor make the other com munications with 'MA be was charged, he does not on that acconnt conceive Mined( the less obliged, tinder the extraordinary circomalaners of the present moment, awl in discharge of his duty, to address the present Note to your Excellency, for the purpose of being presented to the consi deration of his Royal Highness the Prince Regent. II is a subject of notoriety, and has been published throughout Europe, that a negotiation has existed between the Cabinet. of London and Madrid ; the result of which (the Spewed% Government nut having been able lo übtain from (,ond Britain the sasistance required fur the 'eking.. lion of America) has ultimately been to agree to a Media tion, to be proposed by the live Allied European Powers, in order to cause the cessation of the contest between Spain mid America. The Undersigned has no d•mht the Americans will highly appreciate, and receive with pleasure, a mediation of the pnocnpoal g aerea i ra a a t Europe, particularly from England, if, is this measure, they hare MO other interest titan that of humanity. cruelly outraged by the horrors with which the Spaniards have carried on a must destructive wur on that But at the mime lime that he is convinced of the senti ments which animate his countrymen, and of the most pro fuend respect towards the magma Monarchs who so truly interest themselves its the general repose of the world, and in restoring to afflicted humanity the enjoyment of its rights, he must observe, that Spain, in the present state of things, wishing to maintain the oppressive system which sbe had es tsblarbed in America, and carrying ou a war of death or ex termination against its inhabitants, has lost the favourable opportunity of an accommodation which might have pre. scsystl her supremacy. Therefore, it is necessary, that the King lerilinand should renounce all hopes of sovereignty over those countries, if it is troth that he sincerely wishes to accept the mediation offered by the Sovereigns who base textured him 111 his throne, is. order to recover by it friend ship and a good understanding with the Governments of America; because the cruel and unjust conduct observed to. wards America by all the Governments which succeeded each other in Spain, from the establishment of the Ant re vuhtlwaary 1111111 slow, has placed the American Provinces in the alternative of bring independent or de stroyeel, and sus mediation will obtain the desired effect, mile., it has for its basis the absolute emancipation to which they aspire. The Undersigned does not conceive it necessary to explain the just motives which America has ever bad, to complain of the constant oppression with which Spain has governed them ; because they an sutbeiesatly notorious, and such as fully to justify the resolution they have taken—to die or become independent. Neither will he at present engage himself to strew the series of extraordinary events, nor the unjust pretensions by which Spain herself provoked thy revolution which was al most simiiltaneonaly effected both in South and North America. Great Britain kiwis' better than any other Euro pean Power, that the Americans, abandoned fur many years so thrashes wood So their own resources, aolely wills Ow wish to preserve themselves, sod e • ea pe the dom ins s lots of Bonaparte in the covet of the subjugation of Spain, could have obliged them to take up anns, and look to their own security ■nd good government ; and Ibis necessary determination, just and laudable in itself, and which did not a little contribute to impede she entire submimun of the Peninsula to de. government of Joseph, wits ill received by shose who go . verned in the J.land of Leon and Cadiz ; who were desirous that Amctica *tumid remain paimive, and follow the fate of Spain whatever it might be, accompanying' them iu the yoke attached to the car of the Triumpher. . - The Undersigned will, however, record the !great sacrifices made by the Americans iu aid of their European brothers, in she war which they maintained against Napo!coil, sacrifices ill requited, as England well knows. He will also record the sincere offers made by those Precincts to maintain theat wlve■ shear united with Spain, and the haughty disdain with which sire latter disregarded and denied to America the participation of those natural rights concerted to men united in society. The Acts of the Cortes of Cadiz have proved, in the fate of all Enitspe, how distant was tile Metropolis from treating them with common decency, without speaking of jinaire, of hionacily, and that the sights of twenty mil lion, of men were ol less weight in their unjust scale, than the ambition to thitnioter over a vast extent of country, and reduce it to a desert. Arse►iea on that occasion ilia every thing required by her love for her ancient metropolis, anal the latter establishiug an unjust inequality clashing with the principles they pro. claimed, and which they pretended exeln.ively to enjoy, was the first to provoke the differences which England iu vain endeavoured to funcili air by her repeated and generous offers of enediati 111 l , and which were a• often refused through the pitiful policy of the Governments which succeeded each other in Spain. Thus it was, that the mere act of the Americans erosion to preserve onion, and to protees ilonioeivro in midst of most difficult circumstances whu•b might offer, from poli tical at the distance of three thousand - from events, leagues s. Europe, was afterwards converted into a formal act of in dependance, pro 111111 l iced with all the necessary conviction, that Ili-re was nothing further,. to tie hoped fur from Spain, although she might ameliorate her own institietiona. In this state of things, Ferdinand, re-established on the Thorne of his anceolurs, all bit efforts have been directed to the subjugation of the country, without deigning to as. amine the cause of their complaint. The Americans of the nineteenth century litre been 'mattd like the initial's of the sixteenth. The Spanialt Generals have neither admitted parleys, nor respected the rights of Milometer with the pre tuners, although they might nut be prisoners of war; the execrable Morello hots ilesiroyrol whole provinces in New Granada and Tenesseela, neither sparing old men, women, nor children; and when he has stares ty left a single indivi dual known by leis talents and abilities, or by his virtues, or by any useful plot colon, be has published an sonoerty, in which the Spinith Government, insulting hotly humanity and reason, leaves all °reusing. in order to ilitsconble its in. fowl ttttt under the most frivolous proem-es.
