Captain Randelet, of the brig Havanna!) packet, who. has arrived at Baliimore, in 24 days, from fit s Polpingo, states, that some time previous to his sailing, a Spanish schooner arrived there farm New York , which was captured near that island by one of tie Patriot privateers, and %Vas ransomed for 6,000 dollars. The crew of the- privateer in formed the passengers in the schooner, that they had captured, an .

Even this forced and tardy confession; however, Was not accompanied by any co-operation in mea sures of resistance. It was no longer contended. that the %lair was unjust ; but, that it was utterly without hope, was more strenuously persisted in than ever. Europe lay prostrate, and apparently resigned, under the feet of her conitteror. in our insular situation, our elforte to break the, iron bonds which enslaved her were ridiculed as Quixotic, and . .Etigland was bid to despair of suc cess, The contest was continued, with oubated fortitude and constancy, till it was crowned' with the greatest and most complete success-s-greater alien the, patriot ,had dared to hope,-.4riore vont nlete than .101 ,bad ventured to aspire after in his prayers. The e progress of the war denionstrated to all, that it was. not only just, but necessary. Its result has proved to the beertiess declaimers who preach despondency and despair, that the trito n phunt termination of a good cause depends not upon, noncan at all be influenced by, their pusil lanimous vacillations . . It Might have been expect ed that their grat4utie for their unlroped-for ‘eitsnce would have been great in proportion, to their former fears—that they would bare' been ready to pass, in the warmth of their admiration for that System which has saved thenvagainst their will, from the extreme of dcspondenty awl re proach, to that of joy, congratulation; stud praise. Thepaffected to rejoice at ,ench of Our victories, though they entreated us, after each, With red on bled ehrnestoess, to withdraw from the struggle, the final result of which was to be that of &scours fiture and ruin. The last great victory, therefore, which secured our (Humph, it might have been expected would he hailed with unaffected trans port--but the victory, the triumph, and the se curity, have served only to draW from them one unbroken strain of dulefoluess and lamentas tion. Tie reasons and the motives first assigned for ()pros ing the policy of Pitt have been abandoned, yet opprobrium continues to be cast upOn his me. entry, by those who reviled him while living. All feign to rejoice at the downfall of that stupen. dons power, which had already seized', io its un relenting grasp', the whole Continent Of Europe, and which avowed its determination to subvert the independence, and annihilate the Prosperity of linglantk-to spoil tier tit tier, trident t)iid her lOom,—to transplant her power, her manufac tures, her machinery, and her - wealth, to other soils-and to portion Out,amoug4t their rapaciou s conquerors, her conquered lands and her degraded sons. All aeknoulledge - that British fortitude owl valour have proudly defeated the mighty efforts of our mighty enemy : and yet calumny and re proach are twit it ungrateful haSeness cast •upoo that Man, and that System, Which, under PrOvideneco have raised Europe from her degradation, while they have secured the independence of ottr,own glorious dative . land. " Posterity .scarcely . credit what are 'the • . .• System hare chosen to 51'110. The": lasse already forgotten nil the miseries from which it hats pre served us. They are obstinately blind to ell tilt blessitins of which it ha's secured to as the posses sion. Anil, they pertinaciously ascribe -to it, every•atom of reel or imaginary evil which they can possibly discover in the State, or which their practised imaginations can invent. Without ascribing any cat it to . the necessary portion of evil, interwoven with the very nature and consti tution of human society—without, above all, allowing that any of it is attributable to the great contest itself, instead of to that system Which has brought it ton successful termination—all, all is owing to the detested Pitt System, which has falsified so many prophets, and dissolved to empty air the sagecious calculations of so Many notable politicians " We will not now revert to the inquiry whe ther any more evil, or how much More, is at pre sent to be found in this country, than before the French Revolution, Mr. Pitt and his System, or the disappointed prophets and croaking politicians had existence. Your sticklers for what they are pleased to term Liberty of the Press, have no ob jection, when it is employed in opposition to their own doctrines, that it should be controlled by a species of " argument," which " cannot well he resisted !" Granting that the distress of the country is as great as:they can conceive or - desire, and this is granting all that their irresistible ar-, gotneets' contended for, it will be easy to show that Pitt prineiples have not betin the source from whence it sprung. The War through which the principles of WilHain Pia so suecessfully curried us is acknowledged to have been necessary and just ; and the evil, if it toilt sprung from either of these sources, beet been owing, not to the successful system, but to the sear itself, and to its original cause, the French' Revolution. The county could not hope to come out of such a struggle without a bruise, and ought therefore rather to rejoice the evil is not greater, than -to vepine at its real extent. We know that the men who, recommended another system would have made : a premature peace ; and that, of course, by them, the evil of the war would have been eptal ly entailed upon the country, without either the security or the glory of SUCCE£ I : or, under an other systion, the war might have terminated in abselitte diseomfiture—tise evils of which arc too frightful evert for . contenipiation. But the trahla, the evils • which really exist --s-the 'oppressive hoithen of - palish rates, and the difficulty of proctiring employment, are owing neither to the war nor the Pitt System, bnt have, their origin in causes Which the propagatOrSof clittnotir; have neither the penetration to discern, nor the candour to acknowledge.sThey originated, however paradoxical it: may seem, its the very lir-civet - 4 of the country, not its its imaginary declension, During the whole of the war,.Great Britain has exhibited all, the acknowledged indi cations of unlpounded national prosperity creising revenue, an extended empire, peace at home, success abroad, imptoecruent in all t h e use ful and °moult:will arts of cisiliied 'iroclete, tier commerce end manufactuteSeastly enlarged . , every town and village swelled to double its former size; Arid bectitsting elegant srith ill extent ; agri culture brcnight to an'. unex - ampled state of per- section, marshes drained, commons lions of acres of Waste .
