] another person asked me—Why Mexi
co did not declare herself independent with-si
'outsraiting the downfal of- Spain? "oﬀering
me at the same time, the Constitution of
-thie country, and Paine'e Righte of. Man,
requesting from me the names of such
Mexicane with whom [thought lie-might
enter into a correspoodence; * '
! Inust acknowledge that-this proposit'aon
appeared to me as strange, ae"l_thoughsit it'
in contradiction to the laws of neutrallty,
and good-understanding which this govern
ment eﬀects to maintain during the present
state of afairs, and a breach of friendship
towards a oeighbor, from which-th y have
received such repeated proofs ol' friendship.
? Nevertheless, I answered, that Me'xico'
was proud of the name she bore of .ssNew
Spain, as the daughter of her European
mother, that— she would never lose it even
if she were obliged to assert those rights
which both her wealth and population in-'
sured her, should- the govern-neat of the
parent country be dissolved, the love of
which would be handed down by them to
the latest postcrity as well as-the oentimeate
of eternal vengeance against her deetroyer
and those "who took his part and that Me:
ico would only declare herself indxp-indent
when-Old Spain ceasedffio-exist. ) ] refused
to give the names of the principal in that
capital, assuring them that all. etsone in
that country were acquainted With their
rights both natural and civil, without. the
necessity of recurring to those of . Turn
Patne, which had been publicly- btirnt in
principal square of 1Mexico _sihy the hande
of the hangman.
Others spoke to me of revolutions in
the Spanish coloniee, and mentioned Li
niersse, Quito, Mexico and' Mirensids. Of
Linicra l observed that his very despatch
es to court, his capitulations. and in one :
word all his actions had been impolitic and *
proved him little verecd in military-arms ;
that he was detested by the peoplesswho at
first followed him, supposing him to be a
man of great talente and good principles'.
Respecting Quito, ! shewed that the po
pular commottene was owing to personal
corn laiat, and not at all in opposition to
the lmereltol the Bourbon semily. In rs-.
gard to Meaico I observed thnt the only
dieturbance which .ever took ctplaeo theress
-—v—Y
was man; to a mistake on the part at the
audience in reapect to the vice roy, whom
t'he3 auppoeed wiahed to get himtels crown
ed. And in regard to Mix-unde, (ton of a
baker at Carracaa) ] observed, that no na
tion had ever reaped any advantage from
hia pompous plana or oﬀer: of aervieea ,—
witneu Ruaaia, France, England and
the United State-, which latter country
atill salt the eﬀects of his piratiral expedn
don, undertaken from one of these putte
against his own connuy in friendahip With
the Unitad Statea.
Somebody then mentioned in the pre
tence o! the Pfeaidcnt, (no doubt forgetting
that he was the chief m iatrate of tma na

that sovereign has been erased from the

the king of Prussia, and he has lost half

considerable portion, of those which re

and the monks ol Spain, and in a short
