SPAIN AND AMERICA.

IFrom an American Paper 1

'There are.thimerous contradictory speculations
in the Aurora, avid other Papers, on the existing
affairs of Spain with the United States. Well in-
formed men in Washington mite, that there will
be no war between the two Countries.—On the
contrary, that the Spanish Minisrer is authorised
and instructed to make the best treaty of ACCOM-
modatum he can for the' preservation of peace.—
Every one knows that the policy of the Allied So-
vereigns is Peace---a long Peace—to enable. En- •

balance of these provinces to the United States,

in cash---part of which the citizens of the United
States may receive as indemnification for the spolia.

of Spain must,esethink, compel her to theie offers.
It remains to be seen, whether the magnanimity
of the United States will demand so much froth a
prostrate power.
