. AMERICAN PAPERS.
The following is a brief abstract of the correspon-
dence between Don Onis, the Spanish Ambassador,
and the American Secretary of State. The lattir, it
seems, had received instructions from the President
to propose to the former the following arrangement,
as an adjustment of all the differences existing 'be•
tweet: the two countries :
" 1. Spain to cede all her claims to territory eastward of the
Mississippi.
" 2. The Colorado, from its mouth to its source, and from
thence to the northern limits of Louisiana, to be the western
boundary, or to leave that boundary etaaettiod, for future ar-
t w.gernent.
" 3. The claims of indemnity for *patio:ls, whether Spa-
rish or French, within Spanish jurisdiction, and the suppres-
sion of the deposit at New Orleans, to be arbitraged and settled
by Commissioners in the manner agreed upon in the uurafified
Convention of 1802.
" 4. The lands in East Florida and to the Perdida to be made
answerable for the amount of the indemnities which may be
awarded by the Commissipners under this arbitration, with air
option to the United States to take the lands and pay 'the debtn
or to sell the Lands for the payment of the debts, distributing tbe.
amount received equally, according to the amount of the respec-
tive liquidated claims against the claimants. No grants of land.
subsequent to the I Ith August, 1802, to be valid.
" Spain to be exonerated from the payment of the debts, or
any part of them.
" These proposals do not materially differ from those made to
Don Pedro Cevallos on the 12th of May, 18(5. The President
has seen nothing iu any events which have since occurred, nor
in the contents of your notes, which can afford a reason or a
motive for departing from them. The events which have re-
cently occurred in a part of the territory which you have in-
formed me the King of Spain isiwilling to cede to the United
States, make it indispensably necessary, that the ultimate deter-
mination of your Government in this negotiation should be acted
upon without delay. (Signed) " Joseru ADAMS.
Department of State, ace."
The following is an extract from the reply of Don
Onis, by which it appears that matters are as hostile
between the two Governments as ever, as the propo-
sals cannot be acceded to by Spain. Don Onis iays,
" I now proceed to state the most obvious and essential diffi-
culties which render your three proposals for the settlement of
indemnities inadmissible. I observe that, in speaking of them,
you only mention the spoliation; suffered by American citizens,
and omit that which is equally due to Spaniards for spoliation'
committed on them by Citizens and Authorities of this Repub.,
tic, in violation of the Law of Nations and existing Treaties. I
also observe, that you not only omit this indispensable basis of
reciprocity and common justice, but propose the immediate ces-
sion of both the Floridas, which two Spanish provinces are to
be retained by the United States as an indemnity, or payment
of what may appear to be due by Spain to the American citizens,
according to thoarbitration of the joint commission.
(Signed) " Luis De Otos."
The letters received from Nassau (New Providence)
state, that there had been a public meeting called to
represent to Government the annoyance sustained by
the traders of that island frOm the pirates, under the
name of Insurgent privateers. They are represented
as paying no respect even to the British flag.

THE EVENING STAB.

LONDON.

MONDAY, MAY 11, 1818.
Irnts.-)lostouT.—Holiday at the Bank, Exchequer, and
South-Sea House.

We have before mentioned the rumour, in the po-
litical circles, that Parliament will be prorogued on
the c2d o: June. This is still expected ; and we now
learn, from respectable authority, that a Dissolution
will be announced on the 6th of June.

There appears, we think, a considerable miscon-
ception in the public mind with respect to the New
Loan and the state of the Funds. It was expected
by one party, that the Loan would tend to lower the
price of Stocks ; and by another, that, as soon at-the
subscription was filled up, a rise would as necessarily
take place. But the former have not sufficiently con-
sidered, that the Loan is in fact but a change in the
name of a debt already existing, and that its opera-
tion, in effect, only gives the public creditors one spe-
cies of Government security for another ; for, with
regard to the money subscription, in addition to that
of the Exchequer Bills, the Sinking Fund is much
more than equal ; and of course it may be said that
the Loan does not affect the money market at all.
Now it is perfectly well known that the state of the
Stocks, batting public occurrences, depends entirely
on that of the money market. We need not wonder,
therefore, with those who have not adverted to the
plain fact, that the Loan is but an exchange of the
name of the security, that it has produced no impres-
sion on the Funds —it can produce none, unless it af-
fect the money market.
Those who expected an immediate rise on the sub-
{/Ails' being filled up, have certainly calculated
bettet; although the result has not yet.answered their
expectations. For the data upon which they have
proceeded are unquestionable, and may be simply
stated under the following heads :
_ _

Ist. The extent of the Minister's demands for the year is.,
known and provided for; and therefore no further claim on the
money market is to be expected for twelve months to come.
2d. The Sinkiog Fund is more than equal to the deficiency in
the revenue, and therefore is constantly consuming the existing
fstock.—ln the course of last week, the Commissioners fur the
Redemption of the National Debt took above half a million
of Stock out of the market.
sd. It has been found that a considerable portion of the divi-
dends 6 regularly re-invested in Stock, to the amount, we have
been informed, of at least twelve millions annua►ly, which neces-
sarily operates on the market neatly in the same manner as the
Sinking Fund. This may, for clearness of reference, be called
the Savings Fund.
4th. A new demand for Stodk has been created by the Sav-
ings Banks, to what extent can not yet be known ; but it is al-
featly a considerable turn, wed it acts upon the market precisely
like the two former.
S. The Revenue of the muter, is undoubtedly improving, for
the condition of all classed in the community is mending, and
the natural effect of this Will enable the Exchequer to withdraw,
in the course of she yent, part of the bills issued, and conse-
quently gaise the value of Government securities of all de-
scriptions.
6. The state of the wdtid is at this time highly favourable to
every species of productkte industry, and consequently to an
increase of national wealth, the tatural effect of which must be

a derreciatior in the value of money, and, of course,r a rise in
the value of securities.
All theA eddies are in operation'at this moment,'
and nb mathematical axiom can be clearer than that
they must produce a gradual and permanent rise in
the:Public Funds of Great Britain.

The Paris Papers of Thursday have arrived since
our last,—The Deputies are now beginning to quit
the capital, and the Session may be expected to close
very soon. The only object of importance which
remains for their consideration is, the proposed law
for the organization of the' Bank of France, and the
Committee appointed to examine its provisions have
already made considerable progress in their labours.
On Tuesday a farewell dinner was given by three,
hundred Citizens of Paris, almost all of them Elec-
tors, to a select numbar of the Deputies ; among
whom were MM. d'ARuENSON, BIGNON,CIIAU LLIN,
CAssIMIR, PERRIER, MARTIN, de GRAY, &C.
From an account which has been published of the
Public Revenue of France, it appears that the first
quarter of the present year exhibits an improvement,
when compared with the same period of 1817, to the
amount of 4,461,696 francs.

The report of the Latin Fathers having been eject-
'ed by the Schismatic Greeks from the Holy Sepul-
chre, is confirmed by the arrival of Count Foastx,
Director of the Royal Museum, from his travels, in
Egypt, Syria, 'and Greece. The Greek Fathers, it
appears, had occupied the tomb, in pursuance of an
order from the Turkish Government, to which they
have, most probably, promised a larger share of the
contributions from the pilgrims, than had been ob-
tained from their competitors. One of their first
operations was, to remove the tombs of GODFREY of
Boulogne, and his brother BALDWIN. Count FonaiN
has brought for the Royal Museum, several remains
of antiquity fro-m Thebes, in Upper Egypt. A few
days before he sailed for France, a passage had been
discovered into the interior of the second Pyramid
at Gizzeli.

FROI THE FRENCH FRONTIERS-MAY S.

We expect every moment a Royal Ordonance, re-
garding the manner in which the-young people in-
tended to recruit the army are to be levied, and for
the farther organization of the army. We learn that
11400 new officers are put upon active service, of
whom the half are officers on half pay. The cadres
for the veterans are to be formed gradually.
We learn from Lille that the notorious Maubreuil,
who escaped from the prison at Douay, is in posses-1
sion of very large sums of money, which will enable
him to live at his ea-se in foreign countries.
The Duke of Wellington is expected back in France
on the 20th of this month. It was expected that hel
would come to Cambray before he returned to Paris.
The highest praise is bestowed on his impartiality
and moderation.—" In the situation in which the

confidence of the European Sovereigns has placed
me," he is reported to have said, " I belong to no
nation in particular, but to Europe, in order to pro-
duce general satisfaction."
The subaltern Officers of the old army gradually
offer themselves to be placed in the cadres of the de-
partmental legions.

A Mail from Flanders arrived in the course of
yesterday, and another from Holland this forenoon.
The following are extracts:
BRUSSELS, MAY 6.

We have this moment received news from the
Hague, df an indisposition which has attacked his
Royal Highness the Prince of Orange. His Royal
Highness has been confined to his bed ever since Fri-
day. His indisposition is attributed to his having
taken too much exercise on horseback. The situation
of the patient gives no reason for uneasiness, but the
first symptoms so much alarmed the tenderness of her
Royal Highness the Princestof Orange, that notwith-
standing her situation, she sat up all Saturday night,
and has not quitted the apartments of her august
Consort. .

We have letters from Paris, stating that Count
Victor de Croquenburg has been not only set at li-
berty, but also wholly exculpated from the accusa-
tion calumniously brought against him. They write
from Douav, that the trial of M. Maubreuil was to
be at length definitively decided is the Tribunal of
the Correctional Police on the sth of May.
The British Government still keeps up a very ac-
tive correspondence with the Northern Courts. On the
4th a Russian Courier passed through here, coming
from Warsaw with important dispatches. Several
Couriers have passed through to-day.

pute is r'newed—from words they prdceed to blows;
and Jansen:, though, bound, throws down the gen-
, d'arme. The latter, getting up again, uses his side-
' arms. The consequence is, that Janssens has lost
his life.

BREMEN, APRIL 26.

Oar Gazette announces, that an order of the Se-

'nate subjects it henceforward to the Censure, and
that it has been forbidden to give the conclusion of a
letter dated Berlin, 31st March, of which it had pub-
fished the beginning. Among other paradoxes con-
tained in the fragment of this letter which is pub-
lished, it is stated that France is stronger than ever,
and the proof given for this is, that it is still in pos-
session of Scrasburg, which is the Gate of Germany,
and that it has possessions on the Banks of the Rhine.
This specimen is quite sufficient to enable the reader
to judge of the merit of this letter.

DREADFUL EXPLOSION OF A POWDER
MILL, IN AMERICA.

On Thursday, the 19th of• March, the valuable
Powder Mills belonging to M. DUPOTur, (the French
Emigre) at Brandywine, Delaware, were blown up,
and from twenty to thirty persons killed and ten
wounded.—The following are particulars :
" Wilmington, Del. 3d mo. inch, ISIS.

" Yesterday, between nine and ten o'clock, we heard a tre-
merdous explosion, and experienced a strong pressure on the
doors and windows, supposed to be an earthquake. We per-
ceived from the window a large rising Tau of smoke, and soon
after heard that Dupont's Powder-mills had blown up. The
first explosion was the pounding-mill, into which, they say, a
man who had worked many years there, was observed carrying
fire, from which a spark fell—the person who saw this precipi-
tated hiniself into the race, under the bridge; in time to be safe.
" After this explosion, Delmas collected the men at the small
magazine (where a waggon was loading), to secure it ; but in
about ten minutes this exploded, and, dreadful to relate, it is
supposed nearly 30 lives were destroyed !—men, women, and
children being round about looking for their friends after the
first explosion. The grand magazine was still left, supposed to
contain at the time 60 tons of powder:—fire falling all round;
fences, leaves, Bcc. burning, no one would approach for some
time, either to assist the wounded, or to extinguish the lames.
At length Victor Dupont (his brother being absent, and Dolmas
wounded) held a council and drew lots. The resolute man on
whom the lot fell, went to examine the magazine, and happily
found it uninjured. They now extinguished the tire, and sought
for the dead and wounded. My brother, who with many others
went from town, has returned, and says the horror and devasta-
tion are indescribable : he saw human bodies and limbs scattered
far around, mingled amongst stones, timbers, &c.—. 2 sad scene
of misery. Dupont's, Daws', and Iliron's houses were very
much shattered-.many small houses torn to pieces—and where
the small magazine had been, there is ro vestige of a building.
The amount of loss in property, and the number of lives, not
yet accurately ascertained."

FROM ANOTHER ACCOUNT.

" Marshal Grouchy, M. Dupont, and another Gentleman,
gathered close round a large tree, the heavy ►ranches of which
preserved them from the malty pieces of timber and fragments
of rocks which fell round them. The windows, floors, and roof
'of Mr. Dupont's house were blown of His daughter, Madame
Biddermann, was sitting in a chair, when the floor on which It
rested and that above it were blown up, the chair was blown to
atoms, fortunately M. Biddermano was very little hurt.—
Mrs. Dupont and her sister were slightly hurt ; Mr. Deltas
had his shoulder dislocated. The only article unhurt in the
house of M. Dupont, was a portrait of Napoleon Bonaparte.—
In the magazine it is said there was 25,000 cwt. of goo-powder ;
this, together with the sulphur, saltpetre, buildings, &c. has
caused a 1054 of property to the enterrrislng and intention',
owners of more than 50,000 dollars:.

Yesterday Divine Service was performed at the
Queen's Palace, by the Rev. Dr. BURTON ; after which
her MAJESTY took ao airing in the garden at the
back of the Palace.--Divine Service was also per-
formed yesterday at Carlton House by the Rev. P.
W. BLOMBERG and the Rev. STANIEIIt CLARK'.
The Prince of Hasse Housaao and suite arrived

on Friday morning at the Clarence Hotel, Ports-
mouth, where 'he was received with a guard of
honour. His Highness, attended by Major- Genial
Lord HOWARD, Admiral Tuonanonoucn, Commis-
sioner GREY, &c. inspected the •several departments
of the Arsenal, and afterwards visited his Majesty's
ships QUEEN CHARLOTTE, NELSON, VICTORY, &c.--
On Saturday morning his Highness embarked in
the Commissioners yacht, to make a tour of the Islo
of Wight; after which, he is expected to land at
Southampton.
• Their Excellencies the LORD LIEUTENANT and
'Countess TALBOT have it in contemplation to make
an excursion into the County of Wicklow, after their
recent calamity ; they will probably be absent from
Dublin for ten days or a fortnight.
Hyde Park never shone forth with greater attrac-
tions than it did yesterday. The verdant scenery
acquired an astonishing luxuriance since the pieced-
ing Sunday. About half-past four the rides and
drives were blocked up, by vehicles of all descrip-
tions. Among the equipages were those belonging to
The Duchesses of Leeds, Bucckugh, St. Alban's, and Marl-
borough ; :Viarquisses of Hertford and Llsolmondely ; Marchio-
nesses of Camden, Worcester,- and Lansdcrwne ; Countesses of
Leven, Lonschle, Delaware, Cianwilllant, Dartmouth, and
Glengall ; Earls Paulet and Morton; Ladies Illenborough,
Lowther, J. Vyner, PecheU, Wyndham, Palk, Smith ; Mis-
tresses Fitzberbert, Beaumont, Calvert, Metkuen, &c. tee.

The Duke of CLARENCE was among the eques-
trians on the King's private road, accompanied by Sir
TUOMAS LIDDELL.

Among the crowd of pedestrians were many per-
sons of distinction. Azure blue silks, with white satin
stripes, appeared to be most in vogue with the Higher
Circles—the petticoat is increasing in length, and de-
creasing in circumference, though it still retains much
of the grotesque flounce, and contour a-la -thOry-
dc qm-clilly 1 Boots of fawn-coloured jean, laced at tilt:
sides and fringed, were much worn : in the cal riage
costume, white was the prevailing colour. Unfortu-
nately, for thousands of humble, but industrious fe-
males, the costly Leghorn bonnet seems to he gene-
rallopted by the distinguished Fashionable:, in
preference to the cheap, neat, and becoming Bri.
