New York Papers arrived this morning to the 7th
of March. A long statement has been issued by the
Spanish Ambassador, on the differences subsisting
between his master and the Government of the United
States. It is circulated in all parts, and he appears
to be as abusive of the Republic as the American
journals are of the Spanish Authorities. In the in-
troductory paragraph, we read as follows : " These
differences could not have arisen, nor could they have
existed, until the present period if there had been a
rul disposition to proceed upon the principles of good
faith, reason, and justice." -He insists on it that the
expedition of MIRANDA was committed by the Go-
vernment of the United States, and that it took ad.
v Intage of the weakness of Spain, during her con-
test with BONAPARTE, to favour that expedition and
others against the Spanish dominions, and has conti-
nued to do so up to the present time; and that the
United States have afforded an asylum to privateers,
which ruined the commerce of Spain ; and that the
PRESIDENT, to all complaints of FERDINAND 011 that
head, had made use of equivocal protestations.—
These facts, the Ambassador insists, are notorious to
all the world.
This publication, by an obtrusive foreign agent,
h Is very much irritated the Americans ; and it is con-
sidered to be very degrading by the Republican edi-
tr:rs, that a Nation, calling itself free and indepen-
elnit, should be treated in this cavalier manner.
The subject was brought under the notice of the
House of Representatives by Mr. Foasvut, on the
T.,;th February. Adverting to the documents com-
municated to the House by the Executive, from time
to ime, on the subject of the negotiations with the
tnish Government, he observed, it would be seen
by these documents, that attempts had been made
by negotiations at Madrid, and with the Spanish Mi-
nister in America, to bring the matter in dispute with
that Government to a final settlement, but that it had
always been evaded by the Spanish Governflent. The
House had been informed by the President, that a
negotiation was then pending in Washington, and it
was very important, Mr. F. thought, the House
should be informed of the result, or the state of that
negotiation. For his own part, Mr. F. Said, he was
perfectly tired of negotiating on our differences with
Spain—there had been ample time for each Govern-
ment to know its determination on the subject. Mr.
F. then submitted the following Resolution, which
was agreed. to without opposition, and a Committee
appointed to communicate it to the President :
" Resolved—That the President of the United tates be, and
tr
is hereby requested, if in his opinion it is not inconsistent with
tte public ',laciest, to by before this House so much of the cor-
respondence with the Government of Spain as will enable Con-
gress to judge what ground there is for expecting an amicable
and speedy adjustment of the differences between that Govern-
atc:nt and the United States."
From the following extract, it would seem as if
the Independents of the South had proceeded the
length of declaring the whole of the Spanish Main
in a state of blockade. Such a measure we should
suppose to be a great deal too hazardous for esta-
blishments as yet but in their infancy, and at best
but feebly organized
CURACOA, FEBRUARY' 14.
The schooner Mary, Miners master, under Danish
colours, from St. Croix, for Puerto Cabello, was cap-
tured a few days ago, in sight of her port of destina-
tion, by an Independent privateer, commanded by a
Frenchman, supposed to be the Rita. The same pri-
vateer oveihanled the schooner Admiral Kilkert on
Monday last, in sight of this port, and put six of the
Mary's men on board of her; who were landed the
same day a little to leeward of Caraccas Bay. The
Mary was ordered for Margaretta, the Master and
two of her hands remaining on board.
The Captain of the privateer declared that he
would capture every vessel he fell in with bound
