GAZE OF Mr.. MEADE
We have Just perused all the docu-
mepts communicated to congress BY the
President in the case Of MIR. Meade.
By these it appears that Mr.. Meade
was born in Chester county, Pennsylva-
MIA, in June, 1878; that he went to
Spain in 1908, to claim restitution OF
property at Buenos Ayres, in which claim
he was unsuccessful; that he then estab.
lished a commercial house at Cadiz,
where he has, since that time resided,
and for which port he held the station
of navy agent Of the United States from
the wear 1906 to the year 1917. He has
wife and nine children, who at pre-
sent reside in Philadelphia.
During the war which prevailed in the
Peninsula, in consequence of the French
invasion by Napoleon. Mr.. Meade en-
tered into large contracts with the Spa
nish authorities, to furnish supplies, and
was at one period, in advance tn them
nearly 100000 dollars. The govern.
ment of Spain was still largely indcbt
ed TO him, when in 1911, he was appoint
ed assignee to the estate Of James w.
Glass, Vi Cadiz, who had been declared
bankrupt 10 EDgiand, in consequence Of
his connection with the House of Hunter,
Rainey 4 Co. If London, against whom a
commission Of bankruptcy had issued.
Having settled all the affairs Of the
particular estare of Glass, there remain
ed in MIR. Meade Stands about $4,000.

'Iopliff, frcm his correspondent in CHA
raltar.
Copy Ct letter from the American Con.
sui at Malaga, to the American Consul
at Gibraltar, dated Malaga, 18th No.
vember, 1917.
SIR-Ihe Governor of this place has
officially communicated to me, that all
American vessels calling in at the ports
of Spain, will henceforwsId be SUBJECT to
Navigation Duty, as it is so called, Of
ons dollar per ton. None are to he ex-
empted-ihose that arrive from other
ports in Spain, (where the duty has a.
ready been ii) windbound, that come
TO anchor in our bay, and even vessels
forced by stress Of weather, will be call
ed on for the amount, according to the
Interpretation of the order b, our cap
tain ot the port, who Is charged with its
execution. But no Charge will be made
of the Tonnage Duty, visit, or admission
to pratiqde, anchorage, or light duty, and
clearing the mole, or for the Tarltfa
light, formerly eIacted, these items be
ing now all included in the above men,
toned Navigation Duty.
As so many Of cur vessels call in at your
port, with the intention Of proceeding
TO the ports Of Spain, have considered
it proper to pass TO you the information
that the Captains may be made acquaint'
ed with this new regulation, and, in con-
sequence, act as they consider most son.
Gucive to their advantage.
Yours truly.

The bill to Increase the salaries OF
some of the Judges was yesterday read a
second time and referred to committee
of the whole.
A resolution was passed calling on the
head of the war department to give his
opinion on the prOpriety OF continuing
the Office of claims for one year from the
Oh of April next.
Leave was given to bring in 4 bill to
extend half pay pensions to the widows
of soldiers who died in the public service
during the late war.
A resolution, proposed on Thursday
BY Mr.. Robertson, to instruct the militia
~ committee to enquire into the expe-
diency OF educating the sons OF military
officers Il soldiers who fell in the service
of the country was brought up, and, as
usual, many propositions to amend 1t
we're proposed and discussed. They all,
however, ended in the adoption Of a re-
solution to the following effect: That in
all applications hereafter for admission
Of cadets into the military academy, a
preference shall Js given to the soss oil
the officers and soldiers who fell in the
late war, giving a preference to those
least able to educate themselves, and
best qualified for tie military profession,
and to be distributed as equally as pes
sibIe among the states according to the
ratio Of their population.
The house, resolved into committee
then took into consideration the bill ior
establ shing an uniform system OF bank
Truptcy, land, after having gone through q
portion of it, rose, reported progress, and
obtained leave to sit again. Alter which

LATEST FROM SOUTH AMERICA

LATEST FROM SOUTH AMERICA
Capt Go EN- n, arrived here yesterday
from Monteviedo, furnishes the following
interes ing intelligence -
The reports from Chill were very Ia
yorable Of the success of the Patriots
Gen. q. Martin was advancing very RAJ
pidIy towards Lima, while at Buen"s
hyres there had arrived squadron of
Portuguese men Of war, the commander
of which had made Formal demand OF
the release OF two Portuguese East India.
men sent there by the schooner General
Martin. After some time negotiating,
and having gone through a regular prize
court, they were released without dana
ges. In the intermediate time, the Par
tusuese captured privateer brig, after
IS minutes close action, belonging tn Ba-
enos Ayres; this 50 exasperated the 60
vernment of Buenos Ayres, that it was
generally believed they would detain one
of the above ships, which was already Ii.
berated but had net sailed but while We
were at MOnteviedO, the above ship, in
company with all the Portuguese squad
ron, arrived but the result was not
known amongst the Americans-the pre-
vailing opinion was before these vessels
arrived, that war between the Portuguese
and Buenos Ayreans would certaiRly
take place. The Portuguese are making
great preparations for the defence OF
MouteYiedo. They are very closely
blsckaded BY land, by General Artogas,
who has taken possession of all the coun-
try within three miles Of the walls, which
makcs provisions very scarce aud dear
Abou: the 4th Of Dec touched at Monte
viedo. a British sloOp Of war from Rio

of Brazils for assistance, shortly after
they reached the Island, which was a.
bout menth previous to their being re

been heard Of her. Captain Beadie took
them all on board, aud as much OF the'
baggage as the violence Of the surf
would permit to be brought oh, aud land

mean. Of these very advances which
absorb good portion OF their caP't''
keep themselves in perpetual tbraldom to
New-Ensland. Is it thing unknown 10

Will it be Of no advantage to the town to
secure to itself the profits we new pay on
these articles and get money tor our pro-
dsce to enable US to buy themi Will 1t
be no advantage that heavy amount oil
duties be annually bonded, and the mo-
ney disbursed tor outfits, the labor oil me-
chap,cs, etc. etc. be expended in town
IF il will not, we must cone to the para
doxical conclusion that the eastern India
merchants ard ship owners, have been
working for nothing and getting rich BY
the loss. If the view which have taken
of this subject be correct, l would with
respectful Difference submit it, to the
wisdom Of those who compose the coun-
ellis which WELD the force and direct the
operations Of our monied institutions,
how far il hehoyes them to refrain from
rendering this undertaking unpopular by
making 1t the pretext for heavy curtail'
ments, and how far it would be proper
ard palitic in them. having given 1t their
sanction, to make il common cause a.
mons the banks of the town, and each
contribute its quota Of the money requl'
red, without endeavoring to shit the
weight on the banks o. Georgetown and
Washington, (thsreby keeping alive q
jealousy which unnatural as it may aP'
pear does exisD and only insuring the
return Of the blew with redoubled force
on themselves.
II has also been said that there will net
be found here market even for small
cargo Of India goods. This cannot be the
case-there is a natural good sense, a
just apprehension Of their true interest, a
redeeming spirit in the people, which
will impel them overtly to silence this
assertion, and to step forward to cherish
and protect the mode, the legitimate pro-
per mode, Of their own town. to make an
effort to break the spell which binds US in
humble, inert, disgraceful dependence on
our eastern neighbors.
For myself can only say (and in say.
ing it separate from the sentiment eve
ry thing Of personal feeling which might
be supposed to induce its expressien)
that do most devoutly wish them sue
cess in the commencement, and encreas'
ing success IN the permanent prosecution
of the undertaking. MERCATOR.
