(From the Richmond Enquirer of Oct. 14.)

COMMISSIONERS TO SOUTH AMERICA.-TIIC Ss,

ing of the Ontario will excite much attention,
Judge PREVOST (late of New Orleans) and Mr•
BRACKENRIDGE, go out as Commissioners to what
place ? One Paper says, destination unknown;
another to the Brazils ; a third gives a far more
important destination, to. Chili, to make such aro
rangements in that country as the interests of the
United States may require.

Dare we pierce the veil which has been so
assiduously thrown over this measure, we could
guess (and a mere conjecture it is certainly) that
they go out not to recognize the Independents of
Chili or of any other country, but to gather the
information which the United States may ask pre-
vious and preparatory to a recognition, to sound

lie state of the Country, to see for themselves

the actual condition of Buenos Ayres, Chili,
&c.; to determine whether any of them and whirl►
has succeeded in establishing its independence, Of
is likely to do so ; that in a measure so !flue
fraught with interesting and complicated conside'
rations, our Government may have better infor
mation than the statements of seafaring persons.

A crisis is at hand—we must take a stand Of'

the subject—onr policy must accommodate itseli
to the changes of circumstances. Shall we re'
cognize any of the States of South America ?~
This is the most interesting question that hay
met onr politiciana for years. Principle and
non begin to call loudly upon us to listen to tiv;
claims of South America.

(From the Halifax Gazetteer of Oct. 9.)
SPAIN AND THE UNITED STATES.—There is woe
reason to believe that affairs between the United
States and Spain are rapidly drawing to a crisis
Undoubtedly, FERDINAND, before he gives his
