The cause of Mexico IS not strictly an
aiogous to onr revolu,o cry struggle, that
is 70 say, our former cc'oniai Governments
and the blessings we then enjoyed, made
our political situation paradise, when
compared 70 the horrors and outraCes un-
der which the Mexican population have
been grooming for more than three centu-
ries; and snail it be recorded GA the page
OF American history, that our government,
our statesmen and our citizens, not only
turned a deaf ear to the supplcations of the
Mexican patriots, but in reality palsied
their exertions by a course of measures,
calculated to make every friend to the
cause hesitate as to the opinions he advan-
ced, or the steps he might feel disposed to
take in their favor For my own part,
never have ho STATED. nor ever will, in the
open avowel OF nay feelings and opinions
on this subject. The right of repatriation
IS given me by the constitution of my
country; nor is there single clause.
therein, that authorises an inquisitorial
scrutiny as to what country may feel in
clined TO remove, or under what banners
may enrol myself in another nation, (not-
withstanding the opinion of some learned
men to the contrary much less wouil /
teel any hesitation when my object was to
rally round the standard of freedom, and
to assist iii the emancipation of six mil
lion OF my fellow creatures from tyrannic
oppression. Under these circumstances,
l feel, hope, as every American ought to
do, a sentiment of contempt and indignant
on at the demand or requisition of Cheva-
iier De Onis tor the persons of Gen. Tole-
do and his associates.
General Toledo is an officer in the ser
vice of the American patr OTIS, and there is
likewise in this place, Minister from the
Congress OF Mexico, going to lay his Gre
dentials before our government.
these individuals are attempting, as is
their duty, to render the cause of Mexico
popular in our country; they wish the aid
OF our government and our citizens towards
accomplishing their object they have
right to pursue every legal means TO effect
that object and in fact they are attempt
ing to do neither more or less than as be-
fore observed, oar Franklins and our Jaws
succeeded in doing for our country during
our struggles for independence they are
under the safeguard of our laws, and 10
them only are they amenable-and as res
pects their associates, that is, any of my
own countrymen, who are the advocates
of the freedom Of Mexico, or who contem-
plate personally assisting the cause, trust
they will find in the arrogant demand Of
the Chevaiier De Onis, new motive for
every legal and honorable exer ion in favor
of tho independence Of the Mexican en-
pire.

Intrusion upon the lands of the frie ndly
Indian tribes, is not only a violation of the
laws, but in direct opposition to the policy
or the government towards its savage
neighbours. Upon application of any In
dian Agent. stating that intrusions of this
nature have been committed, and are con-
tinued, the Presdeat requires that they
shall be equally removed, and their hab-
itations and improve rlents DESTROYED by
military force, and that every attempt to
return shall be repressed in the same
manner.

pectfully, your obedient and very

LATEST FROM FRANCE

AT late hour last night, 18th inst.) we
were politely favored by the Proprietor
OF the Merchants Hall, with Paris papers
to 21st Jan. We have time and room on
ly to give short summary of their con.
tents.
The movements of the allied troops in
various parts of the interior, is said to he
only in order to complete the prompt ex-
ecut'on OF the treaty-and that the idle re.
ports of fresh troops entering France a
rose from this circumstance
The British troops at Boulogne and Ca.
las were embarking at CALAIS for Eng.
land.
Great preparations were making to eel.
citrate the 2lst Jan. in grand and solens
manner.
Louis Is had visited the new quays in
the city and was every where received
with "Vive lie Ro."
The English officers who had been
taken up and interrogated as to the
escape of Lavalette, had eliminated no
Frenchman as being concerned in the
plot.
In newly organizing the French army s.
navy, Louis has ordered that all the uni
forms be plain and economical-the troops
to have their heads powdered, as former.
ly.
Maret, Duke Of Bassano, was about NIB.
fishing political memoirs, in Germany-apd
precious confessions were expected res.
pecting Bonaparte's conduct
III is said that servant of BoDaDarte had
been sent to Europe from ST. Helena-ad-
miral CockburD suspecting that under III,
garb of a menial he was a Parsonage oil
high rank.
We observe in some of the English pa
pers bitter complaints made, that although
the article of the commercial treaty with
this country, relative to the abolition of the
discriminating duties was carried into ef-
feet at the British Custom Houses, by viz
tue OF an order in council of August last, i!
had not taken effect in this country. The
Morning Chronicle says that they have
been making us present of millions, 50
that before the treaty begins to operate on
this side, the spur 70 shipping TO this coun.
try will be over, is millions having been
already shipped from Liverpool alone
That paper expresses hope that at the
ensuing parliament, some member will
move tor an account of tonnage and pro-
duce from and to the II. States. that the
amount OF the loss sustained may be est.
mated.
A Belfast article in the Pilot complains
particularly that on shipments of linens,
which has been made to NewsYork, 4 Der
cent higher duties we're charged them than
# it had been shipped in American vessels
The diH renee is in fact little more than
per cent. on the value of the goods.

No circumstance has hitherto so strong.
ly confirmed the importance of thro7ping a.
rofle from a mortur, for the relief of per-
sons driven on a lee shore, as that Of al
Leipsic brig that grounded on the bar at
Yarmouth on Tuesday the 9th inst. and
which lay considerable more than ca
ble's length from the pier head The crew,
consisting of 10 persons, were obliged to
take to the tops to prevent being swept a.
way. where, had not this happy method
been resorted TO, thew would inevitably
have persisted, because it was not until Sa-
turday that any boat cenld have communi-
cation with the brig in this period IL
would have been impossible for the crew
to exist. for the weather was severe beyond
example. The highest praise is due te
lieut.. c. Woodger, Of the Royal Navy, for
his great exer.ions on this, as well as on Al
former occasion. 116 persons have now
been saved by this method.

OF manufactures and British commodities
have been sent 70 the United States from

the discovery of nation in the northern
