The latest foreign news of Interest, is receiv-
ed from South America by which it appears,
that the sccPtre power Of Spain, is about de-
parting from the Maine, and that independent
governments will succeed. Bolivar is in Dos
session of Caracas, in the Province of Vene-
zula, and Republic Of Columbia, and has alrea-
dy made it the capital. A letter is said to have
been received from Havana, containing the i'm
POrtant intelligence, that dispatches had arrived
there from Madrid, announcing the conclusion
of treaty between the Cortes and South A
merica, recognising the independence Of the A
1neTtcdnS, an three separate governments. No fur
u Their particulars have been received.
\ Late advices from Mexico, contain the arti-
cles Of adjustment between the Mexican Gene
raj and the Spanish Viceroy, with plan Of gov
Iernment, which provide for the sovereignty 4
independence of the country, under the name Of
the Mexican Empire; for the establishment OF
tnonarchcal government, at the head of which
shall be placed one Of the Bourbon family Of the
Spanish line, to be offered first to Ferdinand,
and in case of his declining, to Don Carlos or
such other individual Of the reigning family, as
the Congress shall determine, whose stve snail

New Spain are declared citizens, without dis
tihCtion of Europeans, Africans or indians. aud
are eligible to every office. The catholic reli-
gidn is established, without liberation of any 9th
err
such are the principal features OF the new
gOYernment, by which it will be seen that they
are endeavoriDg TO form a sort of mixed govern
meht, unknown in this new world such a he
ter9geneOus combination Of the materials of des
potiE m and anarchy, as we believe were never
before brought together. 1t is an experiment,
and We must be permitted to doubt Of its success.
