AMERICAN PAPERS.

We have received this forenoon New York Pa
ko the 10th of March.
• The most important article with which they fur-
nish us, is the inaugural Speech delivered by Mr.
Mumma, the President, on the sth of March, on his
taking the oath to support the Constitution of the
United States. It contains a very satisfactory view
Of the internal and foreign relations of the United
ststes,and is altogether a State Paper of great interest.
Speaking of futiire prospects, Mr. Murrain says :
Europe is again unsettled, and the prospect of
war increasing. Should the flame light up in any
quarter, how far it may extend it is impossible to
foresee. It is our peculiar felicity to be altogether
unconnected with the causes which produce this me-
nacing aspect elsewhere. With every Power we are
in perfect amity, and it is our interest to remain so,
if it be practicable on just conditions. I see no rea-
sonable cause to apprehend variance with any Power,
unless it proceed from a violation of our maritime
sights. In these contests, should they occur, and to
whatever extent they may be carried, we shall be
neutral; but, as a neutral Power, we bare rights
which it is oar duty to maintain."
The .\cw York Advertisa; of the 9th of March, has
the following article :

• By the schooner Blucher, from Ilavannals, we learn, that
the Spanish frigate Pronter, with seven skips under convoy, and
5,400,000 dollars in specie on board (all destined for Cadiz), ar-
tie d at Hsrannah orr the 17th of February, struck on a rock in-
side the Moro, sprung a leak, landed her coin, and would detain
the sect to repair. Commodore Jolly's squadron, consisting of
me ship and two brigs, were still cruising along the coast of
Ma: they had recently captured soave dopers; the Masters
sere much depressed."

A Mail arrived at a late hour this forenoon from
Holland, with Papers to the Slst inst. They mention
that reinforcements to the Austrian Army in Italy
were marching from all points.

Extract of a letter, dated Corfu, the 3d March :
" Lord GUILIORD arrived here a few days ago from
Malta, on his way to Ithica, where the lonian Uni-
versity is to be established under his direction and
patronage. A great and very general interest has
been recently excited in this country, in consequence
of the sentence pronounced by an Extraordinary Con.-
mission on the richest landed proprietor in the island
of Zante ; a man of nearly ;0 years of age, who had
been kept for six months in close confinement in the
citadel of Corfu. By that sentence he has been con-
demned to twelve years' confinement in any of the
islands of the Mediterranean, subject to his MAJESTY,
at the pleasure of the Lord High Commissioner, to
degradation from the Nobility, and to all costs. He
was brought to trial for crimes against the State ; but
he refused to defend himself, declaring his innocence,
and stating that he had forwarded a reclamation to
bis BRITANEIc MAJISTY, the Sovereign Protector
and protesting against the competency of the Tribu-
nal. The sentence, however, was passed, and he was
forthwith embarked, by order of General MAITLAND,
fist the fortress of Santa Maura. The act of accusa-
tion charged him with crimes and offences against
We State, as principal actor in the same, or as acces-
sory in the events which took place in the isle of Zante
during the month of July last, in Sculocado, and in
other neighbouring v Wages ;With having endeavoured
and sought to execute them, and carry them into
(lea or with having aided, supported, assisted, and
etcnuraged the same; or with having omitted, or
Neglected, or refused, to give information of the same
to the Government, when the aforesaid were =de
known to him.”--The son of the abovementioned
*reused person, M. VALTERRA MARTINIII,O, 'who
was intrusted with the reclamation, has lately errived
,io this country, and has been presented to Lord Ba-
te tett, in Dow ning -street.

" rimy person to whom the peace and the liberties of El
rope are dear, and who i. firmly persuaded that in the present
state of society the one cannot long subsist without the other.
cannot but feel sorrow and humiliation at the temporary
trlumple.of the Holy Alliance. We say, sorrow, foreseeing, in
this triumph, the beginning of contests which must turn to re-
volutions; and humiliation, when we consider the wretched ex-
hibition which Great Britain has made of herself throughout
the whole of the calamitous occurrences. The Neap:likens, it
is said, have submitted. The Piedmontese it seems, are re-
tracing their hasty steps towards freedom, and the fate of the
people of Italy is decided. They are slaves, and they must sub-
mit to the conditions contained is that dreadful word. So much
for them. It remains now to be seen how far the Barbarian al-
liance can extend, and establish its power over the rest of civi-
lized Europe; what Chiefs it may put to death, and what con-
fiscations it may ordain, an account of pretended conspiracies'
what learned men it may imprison, Idiot libraries it may order
to be burnt, what laws it may abrogate, and within what circle,
traced out by their bayonets, the peaceful inhabitants of the world
are henceforward to live, and move, and have their being.
" It is Dot, however, against the three open and proclaimed
who are the most forward in this atrocious work, that
the dlgnation of mankind will be exclusively directed. These
Monardis know no better; they are but labouring in the vulgar
part of their vocation •i they see no further than to the end of
their swords. Bat that En England!—that England,
whose whole history Is a revolutionary struggle for our liberties,
whose Constitution was gained through these struggles alone, and
not, in the instance of even the meanest of its privileges, through
the concession of her Kings ; that England should have shared
so largely in this fatal consummation is, indeed, a crime from
which cehturies of honour and virtue cannot redeem the present
generation. The pen of the historian will tell of these things, and
of the miserable triflers by whom we were governed. And what
a picture will it have to exhibit ! It will say, that in the first
days of the reign of Genace the Fourth, an event unexpectedly
occurred which called forth all the directing energies his. Go-
vernment : Mat kis Quetta landed at Dover ! ! I—that the great
Statesmen of his Cabinet, the sages of the Law, the heeds of the
Established Church, the Illustrious Military Chiefs, and all the
Civil Authorities of the Realm, instantly laid aside every other
,thought, duty, and occupation, to hear indecent stories about
her, and to contrive how they could make it law to punish her.
That in the meantime, and while all this wretched intrigue'
to keep Ministers in their others was going on, three great Mo-
narchs of the Continent met together, and entered into projects
' its direct repugnance to the fundante4tal laws e this country •
that they had the audacity to communicate them to the King of
ENGLAND himself, through his Councillors, the appointed guar-
dians of those laws ' • that they declared to the world that their
projects could not but be approved by that Monarch, if he had
any regard for the faith e Treaties signed by hint to that eject :
and finally, that they executed a part of them by force cif arms,
insolently declaring that the Peace they had signed in 1815,' was
etw value, and could have no duration' beyond their pleasure I.
" History will have to say, in closing this account of disgrace,
that all these acts of the Holy Allies, and the principles avowed
by them, although for form's sake partially disavowed by the
British Ministers, were received with undisguised exultation by
the Court they served ; and that, while every English Gentle-
man on the Continent was biding his head with sorrow, and
disclaiming his Government in every society to which be was
admitted, the authors of his shame went on, amidst the cheers
and chuckles of the BANICRi and the STUMM Warners, and
others of that class and calibre, without one effort, except by the
party in Opposition, to make them change their course, or avert,
by a manly decision the sure and impending consequences of
their perfidy and imbecility.
" This is no exaggerated statement of the facts before us.
What is to follow from a perseverance by Ministers In their COD-
nections with Allies over whose projects they hive confessedly
no controul, and whose principles and motives to action are is
direct hostility to our Laws and Constitation, it cannot be long be-
fore we are made to feel. Disguise it as they may, their steer
incapacity for resistance, under the present system, is now pawed
to those Allies. To exercise a just influence over them, liemla-
tens have done both too little and too much; too little, if they
meant honestly to support the principle of their union ; too much,
by truckling to the Opposition in Parliament, and disavowing
the whole nature and character of that mica. The three Mili-
tary Powers, therefore, are now let loose upon mankind. Eng-
land must stand by, and after seeing all Italy gathered under the
Austria& wing, she must witness in due time, and without an
effort to prevent it, the invasion of Spain sod Portugal in the
name of legitimacy, absent or imprisoned.
" England must open her ports, or GRANT A 'AMON =ROO=
nos Seas, to the Barbarian squadrons sent to enforce the rights of
Kings on these, the oldest and the true allies of her ml great-
ness. lint let us not deceive ourselves. To be great, England
must be honoured.. She may fall, but she cannot descend. She
may fail by the ignoble hands that now hold het destinies; bet
honoured she can never be, except by changing the whole
course of her foreign policy, and by erecting an efficient barrier
against thine pretension of the confederates which are now em-
phatically, although tardily, declared to be such as • comsat warn
