BONAPARTE.

Ersract Of letter from St. Helena,
dated December 7, 1920.
i" Bonaparte's new house is finished,
but not yet furnished. 1t is one story
high, and is situated about 200 yards
from the old building, and forms 5 sides
Of an oblong square. Bonaparte rode
out some time ago to sir VIM. Doveton's,
in Sandy Bay, TO breakfast, taking with
him sumpter mule, laden with provi-
sions, and eat his meal on the grass near
sir Williams house. This was nearly
the first time he was on horseback for a
years, and he was SO fatigued, that he
was obliged to send for the carriage to
convey him back 10 Longwood. He ap-
pears very unhappy. The governor will
have no communication with Bertrand,
and Bonaparte will not receive any, ex-
cept through him. Madame Bertrand
and family, purpose leaving this in
April nexNbut general Bertrand re-
main. The education other young chill
dren is assigned as her motive for this
step. 2

Extract eta letter to a gentleman in
This city, dated " Gibraltar, January
l, 1921.
6 find, since my arrival here, the af-
fairs OF Spain in a very unsettled state.
The change in government has done no.
thing, as yet, in favor of the country.
The Cortes, in fact, have acted and con-
tinue to act like madmen, discovering
neither knowledge ofhuman nature, nor
Spanish character.
:" The mass OF the Spanish people, and
particularly too, that most to be feared,
are under an impression that Constitu-
ton means every thing different from
the old system, and that they are no ION
ger to be shackled by restrictions of any
kind, or at any rate very slight ones, &C
cordipg to promises made them, which,
In fact, commanded their exertions to
destroy the old government. Such con-
illusions, however incorrect, might have
been naturally calculated on, and the bad
effects avoided by gradual approaches to
restrictions and salutary prohibitions.
But among the FIRST measures Of the
Cortes, you find restrictions and prohibi-
tons of the severest nature imposed
whilst the country is still in rags and ig.
norance,a law prohibiting British and
other manufactures ofeyery kind takes

Neqv- Orleans, March 81.

We announce with satisfaction the ar
rival in this city Of Col CHARLES S.
ToDD, who is thus far ON his return to
his residence in Kentucky.-This gem
tleman was announced in the public
prints some time since, as having gone
to the provinces Of Venezula and New
Grenada, at the instance of our Govern
ment; and no doubt returns with everv
useful information such mission could
furnish.
Every development Oft the actual con-
dition of the provinces is alike important
to them, as to ourselves.-It will furnish
the means Of forming correct opinions,
and pursuing that course by our govern
ment, which will best comport with its
own character and the interest of the
country.
Fhe Commissioners appointed by tho
late General Assembly, to remove the
seat of justice Of Edwards County, in this
state, have located the same at the town
OF .Albion, near the English prairie
The proprietors of that place have made
very liberal donation to the county. In
addition to the twenty acres of land, re-
quired by the act, we understand they
have bound themselves to furnish, to-
wards9erecting the public buildings, 100,
900 brick, 10000 feet of scantling, 90,
900 feet of boards, and 500 dollars worth
Of labour; and as water in dry weather
is difficult to be procured, they have
undertaken to dig well that shall sup
ply the town.
The Commissioners assessed the dds-
age done the proprietors of Palmyra, the
old seat Of justice, in consequence ofthc
removal, at one hundred dollars.
The seat of Justice Of Franklin coun,
ty, has been fixed on the land of Moses
Garrett, short distance north of Wycn's.

The seat of Justice Of che new county
of Hamilton has been located on the
