Capt. Green, of the brig Lucy Ann, arrived
laft evening, in 10 days from CadiZ, was inform
ed by the vice-conful that it was probable a
war would take place between Spain and the
United States. The report was current in Cadiz
the caufe fuppo(ed to be fore diipute about
Louifana, it was 70 much believed by fome of
the Americans, that they were hurryng to get
away as fat as poflibe.
This alarm, we prefume, gained currency at
CadiZ, on the refufal of Spain to ratify her con-
vention having become public there. We fuf-
peet, however, they have over-rated the Punk of
our executive, and its regard for the commerce
al interefts of onr country. Some waiting pa
trJot, with another extra on. fit OF 1000 dollars,
will huh up the matter, and tooth the fierce
Dons with another facriice of the claims of our
merchants, happily not 70 great, but no thanks
to our government for that, as that already
made to France BAH. Fed. Gaz.
The following has been handed us from re-
fpeetable fource, and we are authorized to

Extraa Of a letter from Madria to an A,neri-
can b0gje in Cabs, receiVed By tie /bi9 S5eb-
berdsEJ, capt. wis, dated
MADRID, July 6, 1904.
(" take up my pen to inform you, that fuch
is the fate of things between the two Govern
ments, that there is more than probability
that war mutt eniue. In fact fuch is the fitua-
tion of things, that one or the other government
NM reeede; and it is on fuch points, that the
American government neitber can, and have de-
clared tbey ne1er auiW recede from. Our Mini
fter has called for a final anfxcr on Tuefday,
and if not favourable, means to demand his pail-
ports and quit the country.
" He is in fact making every preparation for
his departure. He intends notifying our Com
mercal Agents next week of the fate of things,
If nothing more favourable occurs"

About fix O'Clock Yesterday evening the
Printing-ofIice of MIR. ANDREW WAY, ir. of
this city, was truck by lightning, and John
Mcdonald, very promifing apprentice to MIR.
Way, was inftantly killed. He received his
death in the paIage of the houfe, near the back
door. III iitr fame Paiiage, near the front door,
Mr.. Way and three other perfons were Handing
together III conversation, and received feyere
fhock. which providentially occafoned no other
injury than deprivng them of momentary recol-
lection. Two other perfons, who were in the
back room of the houfe, were knocked down
and confderably 0unned. Three boys were in
the front room, but received no injury. The
houfe is mnch ihattered. The lightning enter
ed the rack of chimneys in the back part of the
houfe and OF the garnet floor, divided itfelf in
to two ftreams-one of which palled down rhe
chimney 10 the breah-work in the back cham
Der, into which it was attracted by the iron
work about the printing preGes, along the ribs
OF which It paf1ed to the partition or Daffage
wall, and entered the head and breaR of the poor
lad who was doomed victim to its power -
the other tream ran along the beams between
the garnet floor and CEILING of the front cham
berthe lathing and plaiftering of which it en-
tirely delroyed--and paned ont at the caves in
TO the tin water fpout, which conducted II to
the ground. The printing prenes are confidera-
bly, iDiured--the office was thrown into much
confuGon--and the cbimneys, which received
the 0roke, are 70 much ihattcred that il will be
necedary to rebuild them entirely"
