Your memoriaiist further respectfully
represents, that the extraordinary equip
ment OF the ship Leander, though made
with some appearance OF secrecy, was a
matter OF general conversation, and Of
great no!orieiy, in the city Of New York
tor long time before she sailed. 1 hat
several officers of the government of The
United States were acquainted with il /;
that in particular it was we'll known to the
collector of The port of New York, 70
whom formal representation was made
by an officer of high rank under the 90,
vernment OF The State aud the cole Gtor
was by him called upon to notice the fact ;:
but the collector refused to do so, saying
1t was not his official duty to notice the
representation; that eleven days before
the Leandcr sailed, on the gid day of ia.
nuary last. general Miranda wrote to the
president OF the United States letter, and
letter to the secretary of state, of which
the following are transIations.
Wsrc York, 22d Jan. sos.
Mr.. President,
have the honor to send you enclosed
the neutral and civil history of Chill, of
which we conyerseG at Washington YOU
will perhaps find more interesting facls
and greater knowledge in this little vo.
lume, than in those which have been be.
fore published on the same subject con
corning this beautiful country. If ever
the happy prediction which you have pro-
nounced on the future destiny of our dear
Coiumb'ais to be accomplished 10 our day,
may Providence grant that it may G un
der your auspices, and by The generous
efforts OF her own children. We shall
then in some sort behold the revival of that
age, the return of which the Roman bard
invoked in favor OF the human race!
The last great age foretold by sacred rhymes
kenews its finished course; Satumian time.
Koll round again. and mighty years began
From this first orb. in radiant circles ran.
With the highest consideration and
profound respect, / am, Mr.. President,
Your very humble
And very obedient servant,
