" Administration of the Affairs of Great ilitoffl#l
&c. which) being undoubtedly of al/

character, is at the present moment very interest-
ing and valuable. Our Readers are aware that
we have uniformly cautioned the Public against
placing implicit reliance on the satements of
certain Journalists respecting the great ques-
tion between France and Spain, who, though
they assumed the semblance of speaking from
authority, in the delivery of their own views,
were evidently so ill-informed on the subject, and
so little acquainted with the interests and the
true policy of England, that it was quite impos-
sible that they could be in possession of the in•
tentions of his MAJESTY'S Ministers. Amongst
the positive annunciations of some of these
writers,annunciations which for weeks and months
violently agitated the public mind, and in their
effects injured or involved in ruin great numbers
of private persons, were reiterated assurances
that war between France and Spain was resolved
on,--=that this country would preserve a strict
neutrality during the conflict,—and that the Duke
of WELLINGTON had been unable to alter the de-
termination of the Continental Powers, and had
returned to England with but faint hopes that the
commencement of hostilities could be averted.—
These were some of the averments of thepretended
semi-official publications ! The really official
work, however, which has at length appeared,
says, (page 205) " In the struggles which have
agitated Europe, both in the East and the West;
our policy has been cautious, but manly and de-
cisive. We have been neutral, but nut indiffe.
rent : impartial, but not insensible. We have
been desirous to see the same free institutions, the
same quickening spirit of liberty and civil policy)
flourishing and spreading in every other country,
as well as in Great Britain ; being satisfied that
the prosperity, freedom, and the due station
of the several kingdoms and communities of
Europe, can affect England with no feelings of
jealousy or envy."—That we have been neutral is
of course evident ; but the very peculiar manner
in which the declaration of our past neutrality is
conveyed, implies more than it is now necessary
to mention. As for the probability that the
peace between France and Spain will not
now be disturbed, and the great services ren-
dered to his country and to Europe by the Duke'
of WELLINGTON on that vital question, the official
work before us speaks in the following unequivocal
terms The eminent services and just influ..l
ence of an illustrious Chief at the late Congress
of Verona, will, perhaps, be more impartially
appreciated by posterity than by the present
generation. He has, possibly, repeated in the
Cabinet and Council what he had before achieved,
by his sword. Possibly it may be owing to him,
and to him almost only, that the country
(Spain) which his unconquerable valour and
consummate prudence have once already de.
fended, IS SATED FROM AGAIN BECOMING THE
THEATRE OF A WARFARE, upon which the late
miseries of Europe might be renewed !" Re-
ferring our Readers to our past papers, since the
agitation of this question, they will be satisfied
of the accuracy of our information, and of the just-
ness of the views which we have taken throughout
the discussion. In speaking of the Duke of WEL-
LINGTON, in our Leading Article of Dec. 25th,
we used almost the very words which we have
just quoted from the official Pamphlet, viz.—
" The civilized world is deeply indebted to the
Duke of WELLINGTON for the address and con-
summate ability with which he has conducted
the delicate and difficult diplomatic interests
committed to him by his country. His GRACE
has proved that he is as well qualified to guide
in the Council-room as to command in the Field ;
and his services in his new capacity have been
scarcely less valuable to his country than those
he achieved for it during so many suc-
cessful Campaigns."

( Prom the. American Papers.)
We understand that orders have been trans.
mitred from the Navy Department to our cruizers in the West
India seas, in future to avoid going into sickly ports only in
cases of necessity, and in such cases to remain but a shore
period. This measure has probably been taken in conse.
quence of the great mortality that has occurred the past
season, among the crews of our vessels of war, and it is
Moped will have the effect of preventing the like evil in
future. The British vessels of war on the same station
have suffered much less by sickness than our own ; the cause
has been justly attributed to the fact that they have been much
ntore cautious in their intercourse with sickly places. We
are also informed that the Congress frigate, Capt. Biddle, has
special orders in regard to Porto Rico privateers, which it is
hoped will have the effect to render our commerce with the
Main less hazardous than at present.
