LONDON,
WEDNESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 4, 182,6

We present our Readers, in another part of the
paper, with the Speech addressed to the Representatives
of. the New, States of America, on the opening of the
Congress of Panama, by DON MANUEL LORENZO
DE VIDAURRE, President of the Supreme Court of
Justice of Peru, on the 22d of Jmne last.

The circumstances under which this speech was
delivered must render it an important and interesting
document, but we confess that its style and manner
have greatly disappointed us, being, in our opinion,
,unworthy of the extraordinary occasion which called
for an address from the President of the Republics of
the new world. Instead of being that high, manly,
and proud expression of the principles which should
guide the Councils of States who had but recently
triumphed in the cause of independence, founded on a
Calm and dignified review of their own circumstances,
this address appears to be a declamatory, vaunting,
and pedantic jargon, more like the effusion of a person
intoxicated with unexpected success, and giving vent
to *Very idea which came uppermost in his mind, than
the well considered harangue of the Patriot Statesman.
Aluidst the confusion of expression which prevails in
.
Was however, observe certain important declarations
of State
policy, affecting as well the interests of the
awe., themselves, as their external relations with other
countries. Amongst,
the latter may be classed the recom-
Mendation that no foreigners should be admitted who
do not come in the regular Diplomatic form; that the
flags of those icmgdonui
should be admitted into
their ports, who do not not

independence, they
should never pay one farthing

ment

We have received the French Papers of Sunda
y,
and the Etoile dated Monday morning. The latter
contains little intelligence beyond the reports from
Vienna which we mentioned yesterday from the Ham-
burgh Papers, of the probability of the negociations
at Akermann being brought to a pacific termination.
The anxiety, however, with which the Etoile labours
to convince its readers of the likelihood of this result,
excites a suspicion with us that the articles contain-
ing the reports above alluded to, have been manufac-
tured for the purpose of concealing some latent in-
tentions in the event of a diff'erent conclusion of the
negotiations from that predicted ; and this impression
I 4 not a little strengthened by a succeeding paragraph,
'4llOl states, that it had been agreed by the Duke of
WZLLINGTON, on the part of the Cabinet of St.
jallicailh and that those of Paris, Vienna, and Berlin,
afterwards coincided, that in the extreme case of a
military demonstration of Russia against Turkey,
11", of tho4e Courts should pretend to an increase
of t •
erritort',--and that the occupation by Russia of
•

Moldavia and Wallachia, should be considered as a
temporary measure. The history of the world affords
so many instances of temporary occupations of pro-.
vinces adjoining great empires, that we are not easily
led to believe that an exception from that which may
be considered the general rule of mighty powers, is to be
made by the moderate and unambitious Cabinet of the
CZAR; and that all the other powers of Europe are
to look on while the game of intimidation is played
by Russia, and to be too late to share the stakes
if the dismemberment of the Turkish empire is finally
decided upon. Extracts will be found in another
column.

We have received this forenoon the Frankfort Pa,
pers of the 27th ult., and the Nuremberg Correspon,
dent, but neither contains a word worth extracting.

The accounts which we published yesterday from
the coast of Africa, of the hostile demonstrations made
by the Ashantees, and the information which we arc
in possession of, of the power of that warlike nation,
leave us but little expectation that the gallant exertions
which will be made by the small military force, and
the English residents at Cape Coast, will be able suc-
cessfully to resist the irruption of these barbarians.
Sooner or later we are convinced that possession of
that settlement will be obtained by them. It appears
therefore right to consider whether it be of sufficient
importance-to this country to endeavour to resist the
attack, either by the present garrison, or to send ad-
ditional forces sufficient for its present protection
(its ultimate security is out of the question). We,
should, from our information, decidedly answer this
question in the negative, and should therefore recom-
mend the immediate abandonment of Cape Coast
Castle, rather than an attempted defence of it. Cape
Coast, from its situation, was of more importance in a
commercial point of view than it is at present. It
was formerly the centre of a large traffic in gold dust,
ivory, &c,, with the nations of the interior, which
rendered its possession an important consideration ;
and it was also used as a depot for provisions and stores
for the use of the squadron employed to leeward for the
prevention of the Slave Trade on the Gold Coast.
Commercial intercourse with neighbouring nations
must nearly Cease from the conquests of the Ashantees,
and their decided hostility to us and the tribes in amity
with us. In consequence, of the difficulty experienced
in landing and shipping supplies for the Navy from
Cape Coast, and the•fatal effects of the climate on the
crews of vessels replenishing there, Cape Coast has
been abandoned as a depiit, and that object more ad-
vantageously effected by the formation of a depot at
the island of Ascension, to which the ships on the
lower part of the station usually proceeded, and
where they will now replenish with sea stores,
while taking in refreshments produced on the
island, and recruiting the health of their crews.
The loss of life, both from climate and warfare
with the Ashantees, will also render the pos-
session of Cape Coast any thing but desirable to this
country ; and its advantages being, in our view of the
subject, no longer material, we cannot but urge the
final abandonment of this ill-fated settlement.

His Majesty's ship Thetis, Captain Sir JOHN
PHILLIMOBE, has arrived from Rio de Janeiro,
charged with dispatches from Lord PONSONBY. She
arrived in M days at PortsmOuth. Papers of the 11th
of August have been received by her, but their con-
tents are unimportant. There was no prospect of the
war ending with the Buenos Ayrean Government, nor
had any late advices been received from that quarter.
Some forgeries on the Bank of Brazil had been de-
tected. The private letters mention, that orders had
been received to discharge the cargoes of the vessels sent
to Rio Janeiro for breach of the blockade of Buenos
Ayres into the custom-house storehouses, to await
further proceedings. Lord PONSONBY was about to
proceed to the river Plate, in the Doris frigate, and
the English Admiral had sailed for Bahia. A copy
of a letter, dated Vienna, 12th May, is given in one
of the papers from DON MWUEL to his brother, ex-
pressing his regard and loyalty to his Imperial
,ZESTY. It was reported at Rio Janeiro, that Lord
PONSONBY and the Captain of his Majesty's ship
Thetis had had some high words on the voyage out, and
that the latter had ordered Lord PONSONBY below in
consequence, but we cannot credit 'it.
