REMARKS.

Although the emperor Bonaparte has cad
led upon his subjects to rise en- Ii1asse, with
An apparent expectation ofreducing the Spa
niards to slavery, by the sword, it is very OBJ
vious that the French armies in Spain, auho
xnozvthe disposition Of the peoble and their
resources, best, have despaired OF ever seeing
that event accomplished. Bessierss would
never have rayaged the country near Bene-
vento and Leon, nor would JosEPH BONA
pARTE have plundered the churches and pa
laces of Madrid, If they had not abandoned
the idea of making Spain tseu own.
In Egypt, in Italy and in Portugal, the
British have met the French and have con-
quered.
X it be true, as is stated, that the French
are completely subdued in Spain md Portu-
gal, it is probable the next object of the
Spaniards will be to fortify the passes of the
Pyrenees, and by keeping considerable
force on the frontier, to prevent the French
from again ravsging their couiltay and occu-
pyipg their fortrcsses.
We doubt the correctness OF the verbal
reports, that Germany and Italy had actual
ly declared war against France, and that
hostiIities had ensued. But we have no
doubt, that such an event will soon take
place. The rudeness and impairment Off
ciousness Of Anolreossi had become SO dis
gushing to the emperor Francis that he is
stated to have given him unequivocd tokens
Of displeasure.

the country happy in his own way, quite O.

the banners Of freedom, and he has already
lost one hundred and fifty thousand men
and forty generals IN the attempt. Fifty diff

80 DAYS from Demarara, with cargo of
SEQ hhds of rum and molasses. This cargo
will pay arettnue Of 1000 dollars and up
wards to the government.
2 Ii is fact worthy Of notice that all the
vessels which have sailed from this port, for
more than year past, Tor the West Indies,
not one of them has met with interruption
from either French or English cruizers, and
we believe the same remark viii apply ge-
morally to other ports in the United States.
This shows Ii was not necessary to have en-
bargoed our trade to the West Indies, but
if it had been lettopen it would have aaor-
ded us safe market for our Lumber, Beef,
