Ihaving experienced very boisterous wea

! pose of seading dispatches from this ia

mess at Carthagena, was to ascertain Sc
lriousiy, the retention of the Algerine
brig, captured by one of commodore
Decatur's squadron, which commodore
Shaw intends to Investigate thoroughly
| as the retention on the part of the Spa
Iniards, appears to be mere frivolous
one, either as to the rights of war, or OF
nations; it seems that Spain has som.
complaint towards AIgicrs. but certain
Ily, that should not induce them to retain
this vessel, as it may result in my OPT
mon. towards something very serious
should like much that our government
would declare war against Spain, as
that nation does not appear to be in a
friendly state with us at present. IN
the first instance. their objections at Al
Sesiras; on the arrival OF our store ships,
| the commodore, having thought it expe-
Edient to make depot there, OF our ma
val supplies for the squadron, wrote We
lry handsomely to the governor at that
port for permission, but received deni-
al, when they had store houses 4 arse
nal perfectly vacant, and had been pre-
viousiy for length of time, and could
Ihaye no use for them whatever. as their
Inayy is completely laid up. However,
| hope our government will open their
Ieyes to this conduct.
