were all unsni nously Of opinion and express
sed il without hesitation, that England and
Spain mad lately Concluded an alliance for the
safety and even aggrsndizement OF their
respective dominions in America. They
boasted that tho Court Of St James had a.
greed 10 assist when required, the
Court Of Madrid ia subduing the re-
voted colonies. They added that an oppor-
tunity would be eagerly sought after by both
powers to turn their united arms against the
United States and thus blot out the only
example of successful rebellion. This is

ninons, bot none can doubt bur that they.
and their master entertain any other than
amIcable sentiments towards this country.
