IltlrCFSs OF ANOTHER EXPEDITION AGAINST THE
AMERICANS—KRILLIANT EXPLOIT, AND DESTRUC•
TIoN OF THE JOHN ADAMS FRIGATE.

It is with great pleasure we have to announce the com-
plete •,llCC'efili i)f the expedition under Sir John Sherbrooke
and Admiral Griffi the sailing. of which from Halifax we
leely mentioned. The following is offkial, though, per-
haps, no Butle.in will be published :

arennnt that the drtaehotrot of troops from Novi Scotia had taken
pn..e4gion of the Amet lean torus at the entrance of Penobsr, ,t, and
th4i thy' J..tm Adolfo.* Atm...lran trigat bad been destroyt d in- that
river by t•e force under Admiral Griffiths, cooperating with' the
larpt forces thi4 service."

To the above we may arid, from private authority, that a
considerable e•tent of country on the Penobscot has been
tai•:en t'o•se,.i►►n of by the British; and that .50 pieces of can.
pin, and 1400 p► isoners were the results of these spit ited and

vigorous meacura%! This is the way to treat for boundaries
to Can:.(l,l—take them by force *of wins.

Pen..bscot is on the south coast of the Main; the bay, one
of the fit‘eit on the American coasts ; the fiver navigable for
vets Is of one hundrtd tone, up to the Falls, fifty miles from

Op sea.

A dispatch to the Admiralty has also just arrived, and pro-
ceeded- ti) Mi. troker; at liulham. The intelligence of

course the same.

French papers to the Ist inst. arrived on Tuesday. The
picture which they present of the affairs of Spain grows daily
more frightful. Disturbances -are now acknowsedged to
exist throughout New and Old Castile, Estremaddra, Valen-
tia, and Catalonia, to such an extent, that the S'ecretary of
War is officially authorised to send at his discretion bodies
of foot and hero to exterminate the offenders. Neither these
offenders nor their offences are at all described in the official
order published on the occasion ; a document of which it is
not easy to speak in terms of suthcient abliorresice. It or-
dains that a permanent Militaty Commiision shall he estas
blished in each of the above provinces ; that all malefactors
taken in the open country shall be bronOlt before them ;
that no other Tribunal can claim jurisdiction ; that these.
Tribunals may proceed without confronting witnesses ; and
that their sentences, unless disapproved by the Governor of
the province, shall be executed without 'dcla.y. Ferdinand
has also evinced his gratitude to this country, by issuing 14
Decree, abolishing the regulations of the Cortet in our
favour and prohibiting the importation of our cotton nanfac-
tures.—lt is ntnerted to beafact, that about two months ago
the Spanish'Government requested a !Iran from the British
Government of about ten miltions of dollars, intimating at
the same time, that for such accommodation England should
have the 'preference of every other nation in her trade with
Spain, and the Spanish colonies. With this proposal, the
British. Government did nest think it expedient to comply ;
and to this disappointment on thepart of Spain may perhaps
be attributed the hostile dectec against the British manufac.
tures. • Many thousand pounds' worth of British goods,
which hail been ordered for the -Spanish markets„,bave been
countermanded. The Vengara Spanish may Of war had ar=
rived at -Cadiz froM the Havannah, having on boatel four
millioni of dollars. •

French papers were received on Wednesday to the td inst.
The Gaiette b Frairce" states, that• the English in Paris re-
port that. the American Government, fearing still greater
disasters; has sued 'for peace;l and Adds, that the American
Minister at the French Court had received intelligence to
the same effect. The Journal des Debats, which also .speaks
of the conquest of the'American capital, treats the Subjact
in a manner which evinces a-very unfriendly spirit towards
this co;i.ntry. The writer complains that the war is prose-
cuted in the new world .with the same fury that so long.de-
solated the old, and condemns the destruction of Washington
as an imitatinn of the barbarous conduct of Buonaparte
which we have so often condemned.. lie has, -however, -en.
