To enable our Readers to form an opinion for
themselves on the truth or falsehood of the defection
of General Totem, we have this day inserted the
whole of the intercepted Cornaposchwee. We sag:
gated yesterday, that possibly the documents were
mere fabrications by the Royalists, to ruin the cha-
racter of Totand with the Patriots. The more these
letters shall be examined, the more, we think, the
inference will be doubted which the American Editor
has drawn from them. That attempts may have
been made to corrupt TOLIDO, and that thii General
may have applied to his father for a pecuniary sup-
ply. is very likely t and it seems pretty plain that
the 5000 dollars *tie not to come from the Royal
Treasury, bat from the pociet of his own father.—
It is very well known to be a part of the Spanish po-
litical tactics to employ people to write falsehoods,
calculated to perplex, by exciting distrust among
their opponents, which always operates for a longer
or shorter time before the trick can be exposed.—
Read, for example, all the Royalist accounts of the
war in South America. How often hen they killed
the Patriot Generals and destroyed their armies
1—
The object of these falsehoods was to prevent those
who were preparing reinforcements from sending
them forward. We strongly suspect' that this
traitor will, like *Gannon, whom the Royalists have
several times Idled, dream, and quartered, be'found.,
by and by, giving, by his swords the lie direct to this
attempt to injure his well-eaeped fame.
However this may be, we will not give up either
our hopes or our good wishes for the cause of South
American independence, while we perceive the same
degree of ardour and correct principles by which the
efforts and aims of the patriots have been hitherto
characterised. We will not take upon us to arraign
the conduct and motives of those who direct oar own
national affairs, is leaving to their own efforts men
who were incited to um themselves against the ty-
ranny of Old Spain ; for our Ministers may have
reasons, and good reasons for their conduct : but of
one thing we are certain, that every honest mars in
the kingdom who is precluded from the knowledge
of the policy, the facts, and the motives by which
their conduct is regulated, wishes well to the op.

country..-sad confessed, for a time, by every public
proceeding, that their cause was a just one.—Bot,
the Beloved hounsaint has since been mated on the
Throne!! Has that event altered' any one fact re•

Bat this is Dow wearing off—the enmity of
FIUDISAND is relaxing, and we have now every
prospect of reaping the reward of oar services to the
Spanish Monarchy."—Let fools please themselves
with snch nonsense. Look at the facts. Letters
from Spain of the 6th ultimo state, that the Kttao
has afresh prohibited the sale of all foreign Cot-
tons, that is British, even those which- had been
imported int• Spain with all the requisite per-
missions. This prohibition is to be acted upon in
positive manner, and to extend to all the Ame-
rican Provinces possessed by Spain. Hence the
immense trade over the Isthmus of Panama from
Jamaica is to have an end, unless the local authori-
ties take the responsibility on themselves. The Phi-
lippine Company, with the new year, are to enter on
all their former privileges, that is, they are to become
the sole monopolists of the Spanish dominions in cot-
ton goods.
