SPAIN,

We have been favored by a mercantile
friend with the following extract Of let
ter from bis correspondent in Gibraltar,
dated The 5th of October: ". York Gag.
The quara ntine laid by the French at
Cadiz on vessels from cer,aia ports in the
United States, is DOW nearly at an end
1t will expire by limitation on the 18th
proximo, after which period it is TO be
hoped that some activity in business may
take place. The sanitary regulations of
the French commanders in Spain, besides
the declared object OF preserving the health
OF their troops, are in fact intended TO
throw the trade into the hands OF their
countrymen, whose vessels from France
are not subjectto quarantine, and there
fore supply most OF the wants OF the Spa.
niards The French carry on, besides,
an extensive contra band. under the treaty
OF February last, which provides for the
importation into Spain, duty free, Of all
articles for the use OF the French armies.

cleared at Newport, X. |. wa, lately adj
mitted at Cadiz, as also vessels from N.
Carolina, those places not being mentioned
10 the proclamation OF the Board of Health.
Indeed you may generally avoid, or at
least abridge the quarantine in Spanish
and Portuguese ports, by paying attention
to the wording of their health regulations,
and taking clearance and bill of health
from some port in the United States not
enumerated in their DEGREES, even though
it be port situated between those named,

grapby OF our country.

On the Oath ult. the Delegation OF Choctaw
Chiefs now at Washington, repaired from their resi-
dence at Tensions Hotel, TO the Quarters oil Gen
LA FAYETTE at Gadsby's. Maj John Pilch-
lynn, their Interpreter, having been introduced to
Judge Brooke, was, by the Judge, introduced TO the
General, when the seven chiefs were, by name and
title, successfully presented by the MAJOR 10 the
Guest of the Nation.
The Chief Mushalatubbee then spoke as fol-
lows:
"You are one of the fathers that fought in the
War with Gen Washington. We take you here
lby the hand as friend and a father. We have
always walked in the white paths OF peace; and
lin those paths we have travelled to visit you. We
offer you pure hands, which have never been stained
with the blood of Americans. We live in the
south, where the sun shines hot uponus We have
been neighbors to the French, neighbors to the
Spanards and neighbors to the English but now
our only neighbors are the Americans, in the midst
of whom we live as friends and brothers."
Pushamats, superior Chief, next addressed
Gen. La Fayette, in the following manner:
"Abou, fifty years agoyou drew your sword, the
companion of Gen. Washington. With him you
travelled and varied against the enemies OF Amer

grateful attentions OF numerous and powerful
people, You see every where around you, crowd
ing TO your presence, and clasping your hands with
hlial affection, the children of those with whom
you fought in defence of their country.
We had heard of those things. even in our remote
habations, and our bosoms were depressed with
anxiety to see you. We have come. We take
GU by the hand, and are satisfied Ii is the first
and the last time. We shall meet no more. We
part, on EARTH forever. This is all have to say y
Col Cole then spoke to the following effect:
al am man Of mixed blood, consider all white
men as my fathers. You come from far distant
land. salute you father. because you are
white man and the old and constant friend of Amer.
lea
During these addresses from the Indian Chiefs
Gen La Fayette was agitated by strong emotions,
and was evidently much affected at the marks oil
respect which they Showed him. He several times
cordially pressed their hands.
The Chiefs accompanied the General on his de-
parure. ftom Gadsbys beyond the Capitol on the
road TO Baltimore, when mutually bowling farewell,
they parted.
AT The same time that the Choctaw Chiefs wait
ed on General La Fayette, the Chiefs of the Chick
asaw nation, kindred tribe, also paid him visit,
and shook hands They had previously had an in
erview with him at Monticello the residence of
on their way to Washington.
