jesty's Principal Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs,
has the honor to acqnaint Mr. Rush, that the death of

Ste —The Island of St. Mary's, together with the
bay and shores of Arauco being infested by people
who have committed the grossest outrages upon neutral
flags and rights, by the capture of American and
British vessels, and the forcible detention of their
masters and crew, I use this occasion to notify that
there is danger attending anchoring in either the
Roads of St. Mary, or Arauco, and in attempting to
communicate with the existing authorities there.

it would not be becoming, while the arrangements
were unfinished, for a ministerial print to presume to
refold too much ; but the sentence we have quoted
is jest such an intiuiation u we hinted yester-
day might soon be made, and is quite 'sufficient
to skew that the negociations are expected to
have a favourable termination. All that this courtly
advocate can venture to Sly on the subject is, that the
mints and oratory of Mr. Comma would render him
an accession to the Administration. Very probably
they would; for never was an Administrator so glar-
ingly ungifted. Since the last Whig Ministry was
taunted by the application of " the Talents," the pre-
sent Ministry have taken special care to avoid occa-
sion for the like reproach. Except the Marquess
of Gounostnsauy, whose oratory appears indebted
more to powers of face than to powers of mind,
tiler* is not a Member of the Administration in
the House of Commons that can venture on
what can be termed a speech. Mr. CAsistsio's
elegance may be therefore very acceptable to his
former colleagues; but whether his ptesence in
the Cabinet would be equally acceptable in every
quarter is a point to us extremely doubtful. The oc-
casion of his late retirement, with all the circumstances
connected with the case, cannot be easily forgotten,
nor remembered by every onewith compl &nosey. But if
he is wanted, he may, after all be allowed to pass.—
King aad Courtiers are often compelled to make very
mortifying submissions.—Neceuity has no law.

We have constantly anticipated every good politica'
change which has taken place within the last three
months in the old as well as the new world. As to the
. latter we boldly and unequivocally stated the par-
ticulars now confirmed by the last American papers,
namely, the Victory, instead of the defeat, of ST.
MARTIN before Lima. The ultimate success of the
other Ultra Spanish Provinces and the independence
of the Brazils. The conduct of &MON BOLIVAR, the
President of the Southern Independent Army of
Liberators needs no comment, our prophecies were
grounded upon the certainty of menbreaking the chains
of slavery when their grievances become insupportable.
When the spirit of liberty animates the soldiers of the
South, as it has done those of the Northern States of
, • Columbia, the unremitting activity of Admirals COCIH+
itANc and Bator; were sufficient to guarantee a happy
.• termination to the South American contest. It was a
• struggle of Liberty against the Inquisition, of Pa.
triotism against Rapine and Slavish Oppressors. Let
L the European Despots contemplate the great B?,twa
drawing from a Receiver General a einall portion of
his pay, and firing up the rest with all claims of
'seize-money, or otherwise, to the support of his
country. This is a noble example, not likely to be
followed in Europe. la the new world there will be
•no Despotism—no doctrines about divine right
and passive obedience—Liberty is extending over

While Europe looks tamely on the sufferings of the
Greeks, under Mahomedan dominion. America sympa-
thises in their miseries, and are raising subscriptions
• to area these braves men in defence of liberty; nothing
nabs more horrific than to hear of butcheries of the
Weeks; hy the enfuriated and sanguinary Massulinaas,
while those States, that call themselves ebristians are
coolly calculating upon the profit or loss, that may
accrue to themselves from a continuance of murder.—
Oreeien freedom is as dangerous to European tyranny.
as Turkish barbarity is to the chriatian faith. Thus
the Greeks are left to their own skill and bravery to
establish their independence.
