Rv what we can learn from Washington
I'VE are satisfied that notwithstanding the cry
Of the papers in the pay of France the rfe-
sideut of the United States has no idea OF
war with England. It is true the President
does not wish for rupture with France ;
and what man Of any feeling wishes tor war
fit can be avoided? Mr.. Madison howe
yer, will not sacrifice his country to the
views of Bonapar,e. He will not make war
on England to please Col. Duane, or mr.
Irvine. What Congress will do, we pretend
not to predict. But we think we may ven
ture to state thet they will not declare war,
either against England or France. They
may lay embargoes or pass non intercourse
laws, but war is out of the question. We
are in no situation to wage it if We had the
will,
In the course of the correspondence,
which, it seems, has taken place between
the secretary Of state and Mr.. jackson, we
understand, that Mr.. Jackson had stated
that the despatch from Mr.. Canning to
Mr.. Erskiue of the twenty-,hird January
was the only despatch by which the con-
ditions were prescribed to MIR. Erskine
Tor the conclusion of an arrangement with
this country on the matter to which it re-
lated-,hat Mr.. Smith in his reply had
assured Mr.. Jackson that no such decla-
ration had ever before been made to the
government, and added, that if that des-
patch had been communicated at the time
OF the arrangement, or If it had been known
that the propositions contained in it were
the only ones on which he was authorised
to make an arrangement, the arrangement
would no, have been nade--that, notwith-
standing this assurance, Mr.. Jackson in
his next letter, indecorouslv used an
guage implying that Mr.. Ersk;n2'a ios'ruc-
tons were at the time MADE KNOWN
TO THIS GOVERNMENT THAT.
in Mr.. Smith answer an intimation was
distinctly given to him thatsu - ;n.inua-
ton was inadmissible, and especially after
the explicit observation of this government
that they mad no such knowledge, and that
with such knowledge such an arrangement
would mot have been made that in Mr..
Jackson's next letter the same gross in
situation having been reiterated, and
even aggravated, it only remained, in
order TO preclude opportunities, which
had been thus abused, to inform Mr.. lack.
son, as Mr.. Smith did, that no further com
muniea.ions would be received from him.
and that the necessity Of this determination
would without delay be made known to his
government, With an assurance to it, at the
same tune, that ready. attention would be
given to any communications affecting the
Interests Of the two nations through any O.
Tier functionary that may be substituted.

IN addition to the various and somewhat
contradictory accounts from Spain, we UNI
derstand that letter has been received in
this city, dated ,Cadiz, Jan. %, from a
source entitled to full credit. The letter
states that a desperate action took place IN
the early part of January, about the hrst,
between, the French and combined Spanish
and English armies under the command OF
Gan. Romano. The action lasted about
four days, and was decided by the arrival
o. large reinforcement to the French ar
my. The combined army retired, the
Spaniards taking position in the moun-
tains of Leon. Many officers OF distinction
fell in this engagement on both sides and
either army left about 5000 dead upon the
field.
In all engagements between the Spanish
and French armies the utmost rancor and
enmitv were manifested, and the most de-
terlnined persever!ng bravery displayed on
the part of the Spanlards. In some OF the
northern provinces no quarter was gwen ~
either party.
Madrid, though in possession of the
French, was the scene OF the most violent
atrocities. Several y,slqgs OF the Popuiaee
had til, en- place, in which many lives were
lost.

consulted Dr.. c. L. ,Seeger, but the urge.cy
OF his business prevented him from attending
at that time, particularly to my case. My
