We have received slips from our corrcspon-
dents of the Boston Daily Advertiser, Patriot
and Courier Offices, announcing tue arrival of
the brig Ontario, captain Hayman, in SO days
from Malaga. Capt. II. informs that SPAN
was IN very unsettled state, and that it was
reported on the day he left, that serious dis
turbance had taken place at Algesiras between
the inhabitants aud the French troops quarter
ed in tina, place, whchwas caused by the for
Iner exhibiting the Spanish flag, waving over
the French flag; that the captain of the sclr
Lucinda reported passing several English bomb
vessels bound down the Mediterranean; and
that he (Capt. Eayman) saw two Of them pass
the Gut the same day he did, from which he
inferred that the differences between the Eng
lish and the .4Igerines had been settled.
1t was reported at Malaga that the French
Consul had been ordered 60 leave Gibraltar in
8 days, and that 8.0C0 British troops bad arrived
at Lisbon. The Spanish Liberals at Malaga
were llSiiy eiatefi at the news. Rumolrs were
received daily cfdisturbances in different parts
of SPAN. About , goo persons had arrived at
Nialaga'to bo transported to different fortresses
for being concerned in the late Revolution.

the constitution referred to. All ;lci il proves
S, that Mr.. Jones unprecedented that this clause
might hereafter be cutstrUCd to give to Congress
the power to make roads, and that he wished,
i'm such am event, To reader its exercise as inno-
cent as possible, by re ;uiring the previous con-
sent of the states in which the roads should be
laid out. The very first of the actual amend
mcnts To the constitution declares that "Con-
gress shall make no law restraining the free
exercise Ut religion, abridging the freedom of
speech. or of tho press, or the right of petition
ing" Is it to be inferred from this amendment
that, without il, Congress could lawfully have
done the things Inhibited by it? Iprcsume not.
The truth is, that this and several other amend
'ments arose from spirit of Jealous caution, and
an apprehension OF future cncroachincnt from
the general government, and furnish no evil
dcnCe of the opinions entertained of the real CO.
tent OF the powers granted.
But, whatever may have been the opinion of
MIR. Jones, may be permitted TO oppose to it
the authority of Patrick Henry, who. in the de-
bates ofthc Virginia convention, after depicting
in the most glowing colors what he deemed the
vast powers Of the general government, and the
dangers of consolidation, concluded by saying,
g all that is left To the states Is to take care of
the poor, make and repair high,cays, erect
bridges" &C. Even this jealous guardian OF
which threatened the safety Of our republican
institutions, and 6 snulfed the approach oft yran-
ny in every tainted brceze,n even he. while he
believed that every other power was swallowed
up by tue general government, was satisfied
that ths portion of sovereignty at least was left
entire to the states. And if he could have fore
seen the attempt which is now made to appro-
pirate to the general government this portion OF
state sovereignty, none would have alarmed him
more, for none is more directly calculated tc
lead reconciliation. tits power which comes
home to the business and bosoms of the people
it approaches their firesides, and touches their
most intimate domestic interests. If the inha-
bitants of the states, instead of looking to their
governments at home, are to look to the gene
raj government, las they certainly will, if this
system should be adopted,) for the ordinary ia
cilitics of travelling and transportation, then the
state governments become useless machines,
and are not worth the expense of maintaining.
You superscde them in the exercise of their
most appropriate functions, and dissolve the
strongest tie which connects them with the peo-
pie of the states. What, then, becomes of the
boastcd eQmii6rium of our system, which has
always been regarded as the best preservatve
of our libcrticse /. is gone: it is doubiy gone.
You destroy it, not only by taking away. in eff
feet, an important power from the state govern
ments, but by delivering the same power, witt,
an'increased mass of patronage and of influence,
into the hands of the general government.
