DUBLIN, DECIMBER 28.
MARQUIS WELLESLEY.

[Extract from the Dublin Preenion's Journal of lb. 2811
December, Fritley

On Wednesday morning the Marquis Ws'leaky
left Brycknalt, and after visiting Lsdy Eleanor
Butler and Alias Ponsonhy, near Llangollen, he
proceeded to Kuyoge Moor, and where he remained
on Wednesday night; when the mail passed, it
was understood that his Excelleucy would limbs-
lily be at Holyhead on Thursday afternoon, and
that he would embark for Dublin on board the
yacht as sOOO as might be practicable.
%Ve received a letter from Holyhead yesterday,
stating that Mr. Johnston and some other frieuda
of the Marquis Wellesley, would dine at Morau's
hotel, at that place. on Tuesday, and proceed
next morning for Ireland. The letter also men-
tinned that Marquis Wellesley would not reach
Holyhead bane Thursday night. Mr. Johnston
has since arrived in Dublin, and taken up his resi-
dence for the present at Niorrissun'it hotel. fie is
uccompanied by Mr. Blake, the celebrated Eng-
lish Chancery Barrister, who, rie our readerti
is a Catholic, and a particular friend of the 61319111 S
WrIICSICy.
It is now officially announced that the new Lord
Lientenant may be expected to arrive on the morn-
nig of next Saturday (to-morrow) at the Pigeon-
house, and to make his entry into the city of
Dult-
liu about eleven o'clock. Mr. Lee, the King's
Lotssenger. has been .ant to Holyhead, for the
purpOse i.f attending his Lordship.
The Noble Marquis will be received by the gen-

Os of the peasantry u. gene-
rally supposed that several tin., mats of the bet•
ter claoaser of labourers, and small Cotierr, have
been implicated in these disturbances, and that
they ate-afraid to show themselves in public, for
fear of being recognised, as guilt is always timid ;
it was observed by many, that during the Com-
mission, they kept :Ivor also, and were not visible
in suity part of Limerick, is upon ordinary occa-
sions. The two unhappy felons were escorted by a
troop of the 6th dragoon guards, two companies
of the 79th regiment, and by some of Captain
Drought City Police, mounted and dismounted :
four Roman Catholic Clergymen were unremiting
iu their solicitude, for the future welfare of the
wretched sufferers. Shaughnessy was greatly al-
tered in his appearance sitter his condemnation ;
Magrath was not. When the procession readied
the usual spot of execution, a ring was formed
by both the cavaliy and infantry, and the two
prisoners knelt on the ground, and remained in
fervent prayer for about twenty minutes ; the
hangman, meantime, who is an old decrepit!,
miserable looking being, and wore no disguise
whatever, finding it inconvenient to stand in the
mud, which covered the place of execution, took
some hay and straw out of his car, and lii.ced it
'slider Ins feet until the Prisoners walked down to
him. The Rev. Mr. Ilandrahato and two other
clergymen, then aseended the temporary scaffold.
Shaughnessy stepped up lightly, and was followed
by Mugrath, who appeared squally firm and re.
signed ; there was not the slightest symptom of
fear visible in either; their deltic:moor was solemn
and contrite ; they appeared to have profited by
the advice of the Hon. Justice Moore, who had
sentenced.them, mud also by the wholesome counsel
of their attentive cmilessors, fur it was evident that
their thoughts were not on the earth, but seemed
to soar superior to the frail condition of mortality :
and happy wait for them, that their minds were
fix-d on that imiterithebte kingdom, within which
all hope for habitations.
Shaughtwssy spoke as follows, only a few mo-
menta before the fatal signal was given :-

make any observatiobs on that subject ; but that as
• new system had lately been adopted in taking
English bills of excliainte at the Bank of Ireland,
lie wished to ask one or two questions, as be thought
it an unwise measure; at the same time that he
should not he ashamed of appearing somewhat igno-
rant upon topics with which he could not be se.
peered to be were conversant. The Bank agrees t 3
take English bills at an exchange of 7a or 71. 12..
61, per cent. which is • much higher exchange
than the same bills might be purchased for, if the
Batik did not interfere; so that the Mink keeps up.•
the exchange at • great expense to the establish-
ment, though a low exchange is most useful to this
country, as it tends to introduce a metallic cireulae
tion, and decrease the issue of country hankers'
notes; he wished, therefore, to know what was
the object of the Directors in keeping up the ex-
change, and what did they intend to Jo with the
property thug invested in English bills of ex-
change ? Did they mean to bring it back to Ireland ?
If they do, the Hank must sustain a loss of near
one per cent. on all bills so taken, when the com-
mission they must pay in England, the expense
of bringing back gold, and the loss of interest, ut
the mean time, are cousidered. It is said that tl e
Bank enters into this kind of deeding to prevent
specullors from making • traffic of bringing over
savereigus ; but that, if an evil, must be of a
trifling p dare, lor the moment it comes to be int-
pat•ut it will necessarily correct itself ; however
its immediate effect would be to establish a metallic .
circulation, and put an end to the circulaben of
country bankers' notes. Instead of couweratting
siach a result, the object of the Directors ►hould be
to aid it, and by that means the whole circulation of
the country wou!d consist of gold and national
rinses, whereby both the Bank and the tuition w"
would be materially benefited; but if the Direc-
tors intend to keep this property in England, the
prudence of that measure will depend upon the
purpose for winch they keep it there; and it'
they refuse at present to mention the purpose, we
can only form a correct judgment of the useaeure
at a future dry; but it is obvious, that nothing
but an object of great importance and edvantiege
to the Bank can justify the transfer of • large per-
Lion of the Bunk capital to Engliiipl, instead of
keeping it at home, for the acconitaTdetiou of the
trading and mercantile interest.
Mr. Borne then said, that he did not meanie
affirm positively, that the measure was a wrong one; .
he only meant to say, that he had doubts about
and wished for some explanation. If he appeared
ignorant on the subject, many other persons were HI
a similar predicament, and tne.witte and henioneetiie
course for the Directors to pursue, would be to fur-
nish such information as might be safely COMUIlltio•
cased, and, would enable those foe whom they
were acting to judge of. their measures, instead of
leaving them them in utter ignorance, and then

TIIE PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE.
:ThePresident begins by saying, " lit the con-
tents which are exclusively internal, thews is kspod,
cause to be satisfied with the result. In those re-
lating to Foreign Power., I ant happy to state, that
peace and amity are preserved with all, by a strict
obse►vance on both sides of the rights of each.
matters touching our commercial interests, where
difference of opinion has existed in any case as to
the conditions on which it should be placed, each
(Dirty has pursued its own po'icy, without giving
just cause of °Wens.: to the other. In this annual
commnitication the whole scope of our political
concerns naturally comes into view. fly an Act of
the 3d March, 1815, a proposition was made (by
the repeal of the higher duties on the tonnage of
foreign vessels) to all natiotis to place our commerce

with each on a basis which it was presumed would
be acceptable to all. Each party would retain the
right to admit or prohibit such articles from the
other as it thought proper, and on its own condi-
tions. In placing thus the navigation precisely ou
the same ground in the transportation of imports
and exports between the United States and other
countries, it was presumed that all was offered that
could be desired. Natty considerations of greet
weight gave us a right to expect that this com-
merce should be extended to the Colonies as well as
to the European dominions of other Powers. With
the latter, especislly with the countries exclusively
manufacturing, the advantage was manifestly on
their side. When no article is admitted which is
not required to supply the wants of the party ad-
mitting it, and admitted then, not in favour of any
particular country to the disadvantage of others,
but on conditions equally applicable to all, it seems
just that the articles thus admitted should he car-
ried thither in the vessels of the country affording
such supply, and that the reciprocity should be
found in • -corresponding uccorodation on the
other side.
" Such *as the intent of our system as establish-
ed by the Act of 1815. In the year in which this
Act was passed, a Treaty was concluded with Great
Britain, in direct conformity with its principles in
regard to her European dominions. To her Colo-
nits, however, in the West Indies and on this con-
tinent, it was not extended, the British Government
claiming the exclu.ive supply of those Colonies, and
from our ports; and of the productions of the Colo-
nies in return, in her own vessel.. To this claim
the United States could not assent. The same con-
ditions were offered to nonce, but not accepted.
Her Government demanded ronditious more favour-
able to her navigation, and to this it was thought
improper to accede. It is much to be regretted,
that although a nrgociation has been long pending,
such is the diversity of views entertained, that there
does not appear to be any reasonable prospect of its
early conclusion. It is my duty to state, that very
serious differences have occurred in this negociation
respecting the construction of the Bth Article of the
Treaty of 1803, whereby Louisiana was ed to the
United States ; and likewise respecting IN itipre
of the Apollo, in IBM for a violation of our revenue
laws. By the Bth Article of the Treaty referred to,

it is stipulated, that after the expiration of twelve
years, the ships of France should for ever after be
placed on the footing of the most favoured nation.
By the obvious conclusion it was intended that no
favour should be granted to any Power to which
France should not be entitled. But, if tins should
be so construed as that France should enjoy of
right, and without paying the equivalent, all the
advantages of such as might be allowed to other
Powers, in return for concessions made by them,
she would not be placed on the footing of the most
fdvoured nation, but on one held by no other nation.

" Ad little cause has the Government of France
to complain of the seizure of the Apollo, end the
removal of other vessels from the waters of St.
Mary's. It will *not be denied that every nation has
■ right to regulate its commercial x 5 stem as it
thinks fit. The violation of its ievetine laws is an
offence which all nations punish; and in this rase
every thing which occurred indicated a fixed pur-
pose to violate our revenue laws. Had the putty
intended u fair commerce, he would have entered
nor ports and' paid the duties. But his conduct
was different he entered the river St. Mary'., the
boundary between the United State. and Florid,i,
and took his position on the Spanish side, on which
there was no town, no port, end scarcely any settle-
men►. Hi. purpose, therefore, was not to sell his
goods to the inhabitants of Florida, but to the
United States, its roaring, for thei► productions.
which could not be dope without a breach of our
laws.

" The principles of the system of reciprocity,
founded on the law of the 3d of March, ISIS,
have been since carried into effect with the Nether-
lands, Sweden, Prussia, Hamhairgh, Bremen, In.
beck, and Oldenburg, with ■ provision made by
subsequent laws for the Netherlands; Russia. Ham-
burgh, and Bremen. The Government of Norway
has opened the ports of that. kingdom to the vessels
of the United States, upon the payment of the
duties that ore paid by their vessels to us.

With Spai❑ the Treaty of (809 has bren partly car-
ried into ex.-cation, although, from a contravention
of the order. of their Sovereign, the Governors of
the Florida, have omitted to deliver up the archives
and documents vetoing to the property of those
provinces. This omission has given rise to several
incident, of a painful nature, the which will be
hereafter disclostd.

" It has been seen, with much concern, that in
the performance of the duty of receiving the pro-
vinces, agreeably to Treaty, :t collision arose be-
tween the Governor and the Judge appointed for
the northern district. This aubj.et, therefore, is
recommended to the early consideration of Con-
gress. A Board tias been appointed to make pro-
vision for the payment of such of our citizens es
have well-founded claims on Spain. The Coin-
missiouers and Surveyors, appointed by Spain, have
not yet arrived iu the United States, but are soon
expected. The diplomatic intercourse between the
United States and the Portuguese Government,
interrupted by the revolution which has transferred
the seat of Government to Lisbon, has stopped the
intercourse between us: the renewal of that inter-
course is advisable at en early clay.
" It is understood that the Colonies in South
America have had great success daring the present
year, in the struggle for their independence. The
new Government of Columbia hes extended its ter-
ritories, and considerably augmeuted its strength ;
and at Buenos Ayres, where civil di.sention had fur
some time. before prevailed, greater harmony nod
better order appear to have been established.
" Equal success has attended their efforts in the
provinces on the Pacific. It has long been manifest
that it would be impossible for *psi° to reduce
these Colonies by force, and equally so that no con-
ditions, short of their independence, would be satis-
factory to them.
" It may therefore be presumed, and it is
earnestly hoped, that the Government of Spain,
guidrd by enlightened and liberal councils, will
find it to comport with its interests, and due to its
magnanimity, to terminate this exhausting contro-
versy on that basis. To promote a happy retail,
by friendly concert with the Govermeat of Spain,
will be our object.

r'

"To conduct our operations we have raised a
loan of five tuillions of dollars. There has been
an actual increase of the public debt contracted
during the year of one million five hundred and
thirty-eight thousand two hundred and sixty-tix
dollars, sixty-nine cents.

" A loan of five millions of dollars has been
negotiated, under the sanction of an Act of Con-
gress, to pay off a part of the public debt, at the
rate of five dollars 39-100ths per cent. The total
receipts of the revenue from the Ist January to the
30th September exceed the demands by 1,762,370
dollars, and on the remainder of the year it is pro-
bable there will be a still greater increase of receipt.
" Under the influence of the most unfavourable
circumstances, the revenue for the next and sub.
sequeut )tars. to 1323, will exceed the demand at
present authorised by law. had the deficiency been
such as to subject us to the necessity, either to
abandon measures of defence. or resort to other
means for funds, the course presented appeared to
be a plain one. It must be gratifying to all to
know that *hie necessity does not exist. It is be-
lieved that a moderate additional duty on certain
articles would have good effect.
" A considerable increase of domestic manufac-
tures, by diminishing the importations of foreign.
will probably tend to lessen the amount of the
public revenue.

" It cannot be doubted that the more complete
our internal resources, and the less dependant we
are oil foreign Powers for every national, asi well as
domestic purpose, the greater and more stable will
be the public felicity, by the User of domestic
manufacture.

" The examination of the whole coast newly
acquired will be completed in the present year.
" The naval force will not be increased, al-
though it is necessary to maintain a naval force in
the Pacific for the protection of our citizens en-
gaged to commerce and the fisheries there. Vessels
a►e likewise cruising in the Gulf of Mexico, and on
the coast of Africa : on the latter the pirates have
been fortunately checked. Nevertheless, it is ne-
cessary to continue these cruisers until they are
effectually suppressed.

" Like success has attended oar efforts to sup-
press the Slave Trade : under the flag of the Mill-
ed States the trade may be considered crushed ;
and if any of our citizens are engaged in it under
other colours. it is only from a respect to the flag
of those Powers they are not brought home and
punished. " JANES MUNROE.
