From a Ce.lp'on Government Gazette of the '3lst of
January, we have extracted, in another column, some
rather distressing information as to the state of mat-
ters in that country. It is panful to think that the
dominion we have acquired over it can only be main-
tained by having recourse .to such severities as are
here authentically recorded.
The following extract of a letter from St. Domingo
evinces that the commercial intercourse with that
Island is fettered by some injudicious regulations:-
-lACNIEL, APRIL 11.

" In their new Patent Law which they have made,
wishing to give as much business as they can to their
own Citizens, they have decreed that no Foreigner
can sell to another; by which Mr. 1). who had sold
35,000 dollars worth of goods to Mr. S. has had
them confiscated : and there is now an order from
the new President to sell these goods at public auc-
tion, which will cause great detriment to the regular
trade of this town ; and it is peculiarly hard on Mr.
D. as the President Petion gave us two letters expla-
natory of the Patent Law, by which we all supposed
that we could tialgc with each othir-, as heretofore,
by merely paying twelve hundred, instead of one
thousand, dollars for the permission. .

All these new laws and regulations are made by
the Senators and Representatives ; the Constitution
has not given even a veto to the President, who has
merely to sign the lavis, and order them to be pu►
execution, by which all the odium rests on his
shoulders. It it supposed that Presider.t Petion, after
having taken the oath to observe the Constitution
which he had himself given them, became so sensible
of this oversight, and so disgusted at constantly hay,
ing to contend with notions of equity at variance
with his own, that he formed the resolution of be-
coming the victim to his own principles of rectitude,
and starved himself to death.

" From the turn commerce has now taken, ship-
ments will now take twelve months to wind up,
which is different to what you have been accustomed
to in war-time. I still believe, from the best observa-
tion I am able to make, that the commerce of thi
country is better than that of any of the Colonies
round us."

A Private Letter from Madrid. dated 25th May,
says The political and financial situation ofl
Spain is so embarrassed, that, unless it were observed
on the spot, no idea could be formed of it, and any
representation that could be made would fall short
of the truth. Every where are complaints heard—
every where distress shews itself 'in the most hideous
aspect. All the public coffers are empty. Thi
Army has not received its pay for three years, am
the Officers of the Civil Administration have not
touched the eighth part of their salaries. There ha!
been witnessed at Madrid Officers and Civil Servant
of the Public begging alms ; and the Provinc4.
have even suffered more than the Capital. Every
dispatch of General Morino concludes with d
mands of reinforcements, and supplies of eves,
kind. It is but too certain, that his army labours
under the most frightful privations."
