The proprietort of 'Lilo Juan Bull have acted at

denounced one of the scoundrels who have been
filling their columns with " lying and slandering"
—we only wish they had been under the influence
of equal honesty in another case—then, we fearlessly
assert, should we have seen a celebrated Secretary
with a black mark upon him, as inclAibly disgraceful
as that which lying, and offering to perjure himself
has fixed upon Mr. Nich. B. Bull—but if Messrs.
fihackle and Co. had done this they might might have
lost the impute patronage by which they were
dragged from obscurity to a degree of notoriety and
disgrace, to which nothing could reconcile men
except great pecuniary reward.

By express, letters dated. April 7th !,ave arrived
from Paris, conveying the proclamation issued by the
Duke of Angouleme to the Spanish nation—he will,
howev-tr, find himself mistaken if he expects to gull
the Sl'aniarili in this way—they have a duty to
perform, and we have no tears respecting either their
honesty or their courage—the following is a close
translation of the

" PROCLAMATION.
" THE ACCE D.ANGOOLEMS HENERAL IN SNIFF Of TIC
ARMY OF TILE PYKIINEES, TO THE SPANIARDS.
" The King of Fronde, by recalling his Ambassador from
Madrid, hoped that the Spanish Government, warned of its
would return to inure moderate sentiments, and
would urea to be deaf to' the counsels of benevolence and
reason. Two months sad a half have passed away, aod his
Majesty has is vain expected the establishment in Spits of
an order of Wogs compatible with the safely of neighowiring
States

" The French Government has for two entire years endured,
with a Nab • without example, the most unmerited pro-
vocations; the revolutionary faction which has destroyed the
royal authority in your opautry—which holds your hang cap-
tiee—which'isalls for bin dethronement—whicli menaces his
life and that of his family, has carried beyond its frontiers its
guilty efforts. llt•has tried all means to corrupt the army of his
Moat Christian Modesty, and to excite trouble& is France, in
the *num manlier as it had succeeded by the contagion of its
doctrines and of its example to produce the insurrection of
Naples and 'Piedmont. Del:wired in its expectations, it has
invited traitors, condemned by our tribunals, to oonsuutitiete
under the protection of triumphant rebellion the plots which
they had fumed against their country. It is time to put a atop
to the anarchy which tears Spain in !mete, which takes from it
the power of settling its colonial (homes, which separates it
Gum Europe, which has broken all its relations with tho
august sovereigns, whom the same inteutions Auld the same
views unite with Ilia most Christian Majesty, and which com-
promises the repose and interests of France.

December last ; but whether he returned to Europe
by Sues, or in the frigate which was long ago ap-
pointed to take him to the MeditCrranean, we have

sor of Sir Thomas Maitland, and that Malta is his

By a decree published at Lisbon, on March 12th,
the operation of the decree or the 14th of July,
1821, is suspendeil, and the importation of British

The Warsaw Gazelle of the 15th ult. contains on

Accounts from Cape Coast state that the iiativen
are suffering from a misunderstanding with the
Ashante country, which, has proved very detrimental
to their trade, and it is feared nothing but a military
force will bring the Sing of Ashante to terms, ne-
gociation having .as yet proved unsuccessful. A
small force would settle this business, and the natives
of Cape Coast have some reliance in Sir Charles
Macarthy's friendly interference.

An ()Porto Jouinal of the 24th ult. states, that a
brilliant victory has been obtained by the Constitu-
tionalist., near Amarante; the action lasted front
nine in the morning to tour in the evening. Tito
rebels were finally routed, leaving 210 Owners in
the power of the conqueror, and ifidead on the field
of battle. The same journal adds, that a battalion
of Cacadorea was particularly distinguished in this
affair. Mier having been tbr a long time under
fire, the soldiers would neither rest nor take their
rations when they arrived at Amarante, but rushed
upon the enemy, with cries of " Live the Consti-
tution'!" After the action, when General Rego
returned to Amarante with the prisoners, he wee
