DEBILITY AND STRICTURE.

TT was the Remark of the great Dr. Sydenham,
IT
that acute diseases are the punishment of Mame; but
that chronic oaes are inflicted by ourselves. The consequence
of a prevailing malady proclaims too feelingly to the sufferers
this unw,ilcome truth. What situation can be so pitiable where
the mind glows with passion which the infirmities of body can-
not indulge?—Where indiscretions or mal-treatment have pro.
duced the premature debility of age in the sexual organs, aid
where the bloom and vigi,ur of manhood is no longer alive to its
natural youthful fire? To such Mews. COOPER and Co. offer
every coasolativo, and the promise of a certain, safe, and per-
manent Cure, conducted with the delicate secrecy it requires,
and speedily renovating the lost energies.

Nor an. Lark sufferings less severe from another complaint...—

tw gain r.lief. Here a regulated system, in the hands of science
and skill, overcomes every difficulty, and rouses the powers of
the constitution to act for itself; in the success of this principle
Messrs. Coe;.er and Cc. have never failed, and Stricture is a
complaim s under their controtil.

" I transmit to Congress an extract of a letter from the Mi-
nister Plenipotentiary of the United States at St. Petersburgh,
of the Ist of November last, on the subject of our tdations
with Spain, indicating the sentiments of the Emperor Of Rus-
'sia respecting the non-ratification, by his Catholic Majesty, of
the Treaty lately concluded between the United States and
Spain, and the strong interest which his Imperial Majesty takes
in promoting the ratification of that Treaty. Of this friendly
disposition the most saisfactory assurance has been since given (l'..
rectly to this Government bythe Minister of Russia resident here.
" I transmit also to Congress an extract of a letter from the
Minister Plenipotentiary of the United States, at Madrid, of a
later date than those heretofore communicated, by which it ap-
pears, that at the instance of the Charge des Affaires of the
limper*, of Russia, a new pledge had been given by the Spa-
nish Government, that the Minister who had been lately ap-
pointed to the United States should set out on his mission, with-
out delay, with full power to settle all differences in a manner
satisfactory to the parties.
" I have further to state, that the Governments of France
and Great Britain continue to manifest the sentiments hereto-
fore communicated, respecting the non-ratification of the Treaty
by Spain, and to interpose their good offices to promote its
ratilissefon.

" It is proper to add, that the Governments of France and
Russia have expressed an earnest desire that the United States
would take ne step, for the present, on the principle of reprisal,
which might possibly tend to disturb the peace between the I
United States and. Spain. There is good cause to presume, from
the delicate sbinner in which this sentiment has been conveyed,
that it is founded in a belief, as well as a desire, that our just
objects may be fully accomplished without the hazard of such
an extremity.
" On full consideration of all these circumstance% I have
thought it my duty to submit to Congress, whether it will not
be desirable to postpone a decision, on the questions now pend-
ing with Spain, until the next Session ? The distress of that Na-
tion, at this juncture, affords a motive for this forbearance
which cannot fail to be duly.appreciated. Under such circum-
stances, the attention of the Spanish Government may be di-
verted from its foreign concerns, and the arrival of a Minister
here be longer delayed. I the more induced to suggest this
course of proceeding, from a knowledge -that, while we shall
thereby make a just return so the Powers whose good offices
have been acknowledged, and increase, by a new and signal
proof of moderation, our claims on Spain, our attitude in re-
gard to her will not be less favourable at the next Session than
it is at present. (Signed) "JAMES MONROE.
" Washington, March 27, 1820."

The documents which accompanied this Message
consisted of an extract of a letter from the Amen-
can Minister at St. Petersburg!: ; an extract of a let-
ter from Count Nesselrode to M. Poletica, the Rus-
sian Minister at Washington; an extract of a letter
from Mr. Forsyth, the American Minister at Ma-
drid, to his own Government; a letter from the Duke
of San Fernando to Mr. Forsyth, dated Madrid, De.
cember 16, 1819 ; an extract of a letter from Mr. Gal-
latin, dated Paris, January 22 ; and in extract of a
letter from Mr. Everitt, dated Hague, Jan. 25.
Of this official correspondence, the extract from
Count Nesselrode's letter to the Russian Minister at
Washington, is the most interesting. It is as follows,
being dateci:the 9th December, 1819 :
as You have doubtless been able to obtain inform: don how far
the President's last instructions to Mr. Forsyth were positive.
The Emperor will not now take it upon him to justify Spain ;
but he charges you to plead, with the Government at Yfashidg-
ton, the cause of peace and concord. That Government is too
enlightened to take hasty steps; and its tights appear to be too
solid, not to be weakened by a violent course of proceeding;
and ea the other hand, such is the character of the considera-
tions which command the ratification, by Spain, of the arrange-
meat relative to the Florida*, that it is to be hoped she will at
length yield 'to the force of evidence. The United States will
then have added to the reputation of an able, that of a moderate
policy, and will gather, with security, the fruits of their wis-
dom His Imperial Majesty, therefore, wishes that if there be
yet wis-
dom,
you would engage the Government at Washington to
give-to the Spanish Ministry a proof of patience, which its cir-
cumstances might indeed seem to suggest. Nevertheless, the
Emperor does not interpose In this discussivn. He makes,
above all, no pretensions to exercise an ialuence in the Council.:
of a foreign Power. He merely expresses a wish, dictated by
his concern for the general welfare, and worthy of the generous
good faith which characterizes the Government of the United
States."

It would appear from the subjoined letter, re-
ceived from Rio de Janeiro of date the 19th February,
that though there has been no change in the Govern-
ment of Buenos Ayres entitled to the name of Revo-
lution, there has been a change in the Administra-
tion, by wfiich PurzaaaDoN has been removed from
the Supreme Directorship :

" RIO DR JANEIRO, VEBRUARY is.

" After having forwarded my letter of this date, an American
schooner arrived in ten days from Monte Video, and brings the
news that a change of Administration had taken place at MICDOS
Arm, and that Don Juan Pedro de Aguirre had been named
Supreme Director ad interne, instil the Chambers should have
met and elected a Supreme Director, according to the Consti-
tution s these are all the particulars which have been received.
For some time past great discontent had existed, as well at
Buenos Ayres as in the Provinces: the Provisional Government
was accused of treating General San Martin with neglect and
almost abandoning the Expedition to Pent by directing its
attention to the grand Expedition from Spain, and to the petty
warfare against Santa Fe; but what gave the greatest displea-
sure was, the tardiness in openlhg the Sessions of the two Cham-
bers, which ought to have met in November last, and appointed
a Supreme Director for five years."
We subjoin the following additional circumstances
communicated to the Times, by ig a friend who has
received a letter from Buenos Ayres, dated in January
last, written by a leading character in that country,
who, it is probable, has taken an active part in the
events in question" :
" The adminiktratim art Puyerredon had brains unpopular
fot some time Rrevious to his retiring from the Supreme Direc-
torship ; he however thought he might still preserve his influence
and support his adherents, by mean, of his friend General Ron-
deau, who had been named Director ad ialerio• a. This adminis-
tration was submitted to in the hopes that the meeting of the
two Chambers would take place in November, and immediately
name a Supreme Director. But the Provisional _Governraent
clung to power, and under pretence of the dangers from the
Spixtuts grand expedition, and from the Montonera, chewed no
intention to conform' to the Constitution, by calling the Cham-
, hers and resigning the reins of Government. Seeing thus no
prospect of a change, the popular party prepared to bring it
about without violence, by taking advantage of the absence of
the interim Director, Rondeau, who was at the head of the
troops opposed to the Montonera ; and, being in cotamandeation
and understanding with the provinces of Corecva and Tucuman,
the Governors appointed by the Government of Buenos Ayres
' were deposed, au.l others of popular character appointed.
" General Belgranoi Commandtr of the Army of Tucuman,
being severely indisposed, was superseded, and the command
' given to another (Aker (Colonel 'Sanaa, atit would seem);
and if we can eire credit to the loose facts communicated tom:
contemporaries, the farce under, his command must have moved
•!we to thienus Ayres by a circuitous mach, for the purpose

of preventing Rond. au from att. pt,. an; up, us ,ton, although
t had been pretty well &Item hied that the .rbrips wider Ron-
dean were generally as *-11 affected tb popuLr cure as those
lately under B 'rano. It is not uniikely that Puyetredott,
igilnet whom the popular indierrttion seems to hive been di-
rected, should here Red on board the John Adams American
sloop of War then anchored off Buenos Ayres, nor that.the Brie
fish Commander should hive n measures of precau-
tion to ptd.eet the persons and property cf his countrymen, ia
case of any disorder that might possihly happen, though, 'Jima
the uniform respect shewn to foreigners, and especially the Bri-
tish, in all domestic commotion., little was to be apprehended.
" Perhaps it may subtequently he deemed expedient to intro..
shire some modifications in the Co. rtituti'n, to give it more oral
federal character, with a view of indulging the prejudices pre-
vailing in she Provir.ces, but the fact of a Federal Governmatt
being estsblished appears prerrature. When we see the appoint-
ment of Agulrfe as Director ad interim, we have every reason
to heliere that the popular party, whose success we cannot tail.
coke, intended to exert its influence for the elc.zion of General
San Martin as BUpretne Director for five years. It ii, however,
known, that General San Martin hiss little atnbition for political
dignities ; and his o*h inclination, as Well as his high military
character, would evidently tend to the expediency of giving him
the command of the army of Peru. Whatever may be deter-
mined on this head, Chili, although closely connected with
Buenos Ayres, is not necessarily affected by the change of Ad..
ministration in Buenos Ayres, as has Leen insinuated. The Su-
preme Director, O'Higgins, was the friend of Puyerredon, and
is equally intimate with San Martin. Perhapsthe late events in the
River Plate May hasten the convocation of a Cowen In Chili."

EXTRACT OF A LETTER PROM TAIN, APRIL IS, IB2of
" From the paragraph in the Morning Chronicle
respecting J. AI`XENZIE, E-q. our Member, I per.
ceive the author is ignorant of this being the second
Chairing in this County. Immediately after he was
.unanimously elected by more than two dozen or -
the Freeholders, the Chairing took place, which was
very splendid. The Procession was led by our ve-
nerable Sheriff, holding in his right hand the sword
of Justice, and in his left a banner, do which was
painted Justice, with the balance poised, and on it
was inscribed—" Inflexible Impartiality to boat
Candidates." On the revere—" Purity of Election—'
Cromarty, Brodie, Davidson, Ross, Seaforth, Apple.'
cross, Lanark, Rerifrew, Church and State.—
Then followed CADBoL, with a banner (he appeared
fatigued) inscribed " Independence, Consistency--
the safety of Ross and the State would he endan•
gered by transferring the Representation of the
County into any other hands."—" A dark view of
the County of Cromarty.7—Tlie Chair was borne by
four Freeholders. This post of honour was given
to four strangers, holding no real property in the
County; amongst them, SEAYORTH S confidential
Agents.—About seventy Gentlemen sat down to
dinner, comprising all that is distinguished in-Boss.
shire for rank, property, character, and talent.
"N. B. The rent-roll of one of Mr. FRASER'S sup.
porters) is nearly equal to the united rent-rolls of all
' those at Mr. *Kerala's Election. No doubt there
would have been Chairings on the Elections of Lord
SEAFORTH and Sir CHARLES Ross, &c. but the
County of Ross is represented, for the first time, by
the fittest man on the roll, with whom the Chairing
comMenced."
