PROCLAMATION. •
TUE FIRST CRIES' or TM!: IMYERTAL ARMY.
Mt:RICANS !—Yuu are now in a situatiun to proclaim the
country indesiendent, as I announced to you in foal& Already
is the immense space which separates slavery from liberty pasted
over, and motion is given to the different springs whereby ever
American may speak his private opinion, because the filar which
restrained some ssclissipsted, the malice which warialsidshastyl
ment of others is moderated, and the ideas of all
and I find myself in the capital of Chit most opulent empire,
%amut having left behind streenu of blood, ravaged plains, dis-
consolate widow., or orphan ebildren,seveting with execrations
the assassin of their father.. On the .connary, the principal
provinces of this kingdom bare been examined, and all, uniform
in their rejoicings, address expressive salutations to the Tn.
guarantee Army, and vows of gratitude to Heaven. These de-
, ministrations give my heart an ineffable pleasure, and more
than compensate the sufrerings and privations of the soldiers,
who have always been active, steady, and courageous. You al
ready know what it is to be free, and you arc on the point of
knowing what is to be happy. The Junta will be installed. the
Cortes assembled, and the taw, on which your felicity depends,
will be sanctioned. I exhort you to torget the words of alarm,
and threats lof extermination, and to pronounce only those of
union and intimate friendship. Contribute by your knowledge
to the grand code ; hut avoid satire and malignant slander,—
Obedient to authority, you will complete, in concert with the
sovereign Congress, the gland wink which you have commenced
—and allow nie to cast a brisk behind me to oliserv, attentively the
picture wine i Provitteitee has traced, anti which American wir•
dom is about to till up. If my labours (due to the country) be
considered by you worthy of recompense, all I tisk is, that you
respect the laws, that you allow Ms: to return to the bosom of my
beloved family, and that you sometimes recollect your found
Mexico, sept. 27. !TUMOUR.

The Parliamentary Commission which lately se
in Dublin, means to recommend that the Union
shall be carried into complete effect by the removal
of the commercial restrictions between the two
countrias now in three, and, equalising the duties.
It considers the present machinery of the public
offices in Ireland on a scale much too large and die-
proportioned to the revenue, and means to recom-
mend a great reduction in the number of clerks,
the amount of salaries, and other means of economy
and retrenchment.
Two or three years ago, a gentleman from the
neighbourhood of Leeds lost a valuable gold %etch,
and its appendages, wheu shooting on the Moors;
this year it was fmind, little worse from its long
exposure to the eapicc of t,bt seasons.

.„,t(AULRICAN PAPERS.
An article not worth extracting from the RIM. •
cola Floriffea, says that Gillet Britain and Russia
are in treaty with the King of Spain for the pur-
chase of the kingdom of Mexico, and that the former
power had offered 15,000,0001. styling. Whether
the.purchase is to be made in co-partataships, or the
powers are bidding agigust each other, we are not
informed, although we are told that the deputies of
New Spain had protested against the measure, and
had transmitted ,the intelligence toYera Cala
We only notice Ms foolish story tailipress our sur-
prise that it should be thought deserapsg of pie-
rency. If either of the great Powers of burtipe
thought it practicable at the present day to buy *
nation of 5 or 6,000,000 of souls, without their
consent, what value is it probable they would set
on the conveyance of Ferdinand and the Cortes ?
The Pope's title is quite as good under present cir-
cunistatices, and might be had for a trifle: He once
gave away this continent ; and us the revolutions of
Mexico contend for his supremacy, and that of the
inquisition, they would ptobably, sooner consent
to a transfer *om him than toltsale by their old
Sovereigns in Spain. Is either case, however, the
purchase would be " buying the bear's skin before
he uus caught," and the statesmen of England and
Russia bre rather too cunninolifor that, *hough
they may not be the wisest iii.the world.."--Nete
