them to be so. Tlw rapidity with which the emancipation of
that continent has been accomplished, destroys entirely the
first part of this proposition, as well as all that has been said
about the pretended adhesion of the Americans to the Govern-
ment of the Mother-country. As to the second part, let us
turn over the leaf—all those who can see or hear need not to
be told any thing further to know the truth ; and, if that will
not do, let me refer them to our arsenals, funds, &c. &c."

Page 34 and 35—Senor GUERRA ridicules and
condemns the conduct of the Extraordinary
Cortes, for having first obliged the Deputies
of the Colonies to take seats in the Representa-
tion, and for having afterwards excluded them,
—which latter act, he contends, was a virtual
separation from America on the part of Spain.

" Buenos Ayres, for instance, is Spinish territory ; so says
the constitution (Art. 10) : this, together with the other terri-
tories, composes the Spanish nation (Art. 1) : this nation ought
to be represented in Cortes by all her Deputies (Att. 27) ; so

that a part of it which is not represented, either because they
do not grant lb that right, or because its representatives are
driven out, must, of course, remain out of the nation. This
reasoning will be still more evident, if we do but consider that
this rnon-represented part not concurring to Make the laws,
these cannot be binding, for laws are made
,by the Cortes
(Art. 131) ; the 'Cortes are an union of all the Deputies of the
nation (Art. 27) ; the nation is the union of all the Spaniards of
both hemispheres (Art. 1) ; hence it follows, that, by all of them
<not assisting in the formation of the laws, therecanbe no laws for

those who are not present; and if the reason why.those are not
present be, that the rest of the nation excludes because
they do not like them, it is then evident, that their wish is, that
they should form no part of the nation. Either Buenos Ayres
belongs to the Spanish nation,..or it does not belong to it; if it
does, then it ought to have representatives; if it will not admit
its representatives, then it does not wish Buenos Ayres to be a
part of the nation, and therefore, it cannot belong to it : in a
word.; by abandoning its revolutionized territories, Spain for-
feits all claims to them, and they can belong only to those who
occupy them."

Page 61, he exhorts the nation to tear off the
veil which base and deceitful motives have
thrown over the affairs of America; in order to
prevent their being examined,—over the affairs
of Ahat part of the world which once belonged to
Spain, but which, in fact, belongs to it no more.
The only remedy,' in his opinion, for the evils

to which the war with the Colonies has given
rise in Spain, is " the recognition of the inde-
pendence of those regions."—lt is gratifying to
find that this truth has at last been plainly stated
to the Spanish nation. Other Governments, as
jealous of their glory and their interests,
have yielded to the law of necessity ; and Eng-
land herself, with a thousand times more resources
tha❑ Spain, was forced to acknowledge the in-
dependence of her revolted Colonies, without,
however, having descended from the high rank
which she enjoys among other powers. Spain
herself was compelled to yield up her authority to
Holland and Portugal, at a period when she was
much more rich and powerful than at present, and
when those who wrung concessions from her were
on the same Continent with herself. The English
Government, as well as Spain, is interested in
the early recognition of South America. If
Menico (now a Monarchy) and Peru, perma-
nently settle down into Republics, it is probable
that their connections with Europe will become
very limited and insecure. They will be
strongly urged to adopt the Republican form of
Government by the United States. Is it not pro-
bable, that in the end they may prohibit com-
mercial intercourse with Europe ; and that Ame-
rica, opening her ports on the Southern Ocean,
at San Blas, Acapulco, Guayaquil, Lima, and
Valparaiso, to the Asiatic nations, and imposing
heavy duties on the manufactures of Europe, may
change the course of commerce, and impoverish
and even ruin Europe, by depriving it of the
precious metals, and sending them to Asia, by
the facility of its communication with her ports
on the Pacific Ocean.

CITY.—Up to this hour, one o'clock, there
were no arrivals, nor even a ship letter.

AMERICA.—The town of Oxford, in Chenango
county, was visited on the 4th inst. with a most
destructive tornado, which did immense damage
to the buildings, orchards, grain, &c. in that sec-
tion of the country. Several buildings were
prostrated ; houses were unroofed, chimneys and
fences blown down, and trees uprooted. In
Oxford the timber on several hundred acres was
destroyed. The trees in several orchards were
twisted off, and hurled into the air; and their
fruit scattered in every direction.—(New York
Evening Post.)

It was very generally rumoured yesterday in
the City, that the present SPEAKER of the House
of Commons will, in all probability, be appointed
Governor. General of India ; in which case it is
thought Mr. C. VVYmmx will succeed Mr. MAN-
NERS SUTTON but it was still uncertain who was
to take the lead at the Board of Controul.
