our readers, Is too interesting to be omitted or
! condensed. Every new scene exhibited in the
drama OF the Spanish revolution, displays more
strongly the Proifgacv Of BonapaItt, and the
energy Of the Spaniards.-His elevation Of his
brother Joseph Bonaparte to the throle Of Spaiil
is one of the most unprincpled acts Of ambition,
which stands on record. AS to the Spaniards,
the isSue mist decide the Consequences Of their
exertions.-One result which didnot origi-
naily look TO, is the increased opposition which
these eXertions may produce IN their American
| colonies. They seem to be determined to resist
the French yoke. Cuba, the Caracc3s, and Por
to-Rico have declared against it. What course
will be taken by New Mexico, and particularly
The Fl0rldas lis most interesting question
with us.
