citizens.
| From the Paragraph (Which paragraph, by
the bye, has done in Brazil ncalculAbie injury to
the clsimants,) an the {ste Presidenfs .aIessage,
and Mark we! this message was penned az early as
December iast.-One would suppose that Brazil
had already paid half OF the claims for spolia-
! tons on our commerce Not so, my dear sirs !!
speak advisedly, when assert this twenty
| third day OF March,-neary four months from the
date OF the Presidents messsge--that the SPARK
Is the only claim settled and paid Seven, and
seven only, other Cases have been argued before
the Commissioners and G,oords giveD;( awards too,
replete with injustice; yet this IS 'full and COM
plete indemnity" pledged by Mr.. Rebelo! on

stance, save the one before named, has any money
been paid,--neither have any specific negotiable
obligations been received! No sirs! You NAV
IL st Notwithstanding from the past for the fn.
ture,-that nothing ciN be done towards the final
liquidation and payment OF these claims until one
OF two things takes place;--unt Brazil is menac-

The French, ii is positively asserted hare settled
the,y claims by convention:-the sum about 009 :
QUO francs. But this government would not listen
to any demands Of the French Monarch, until the
harbour Of Rio was. (and as il now is) crowded
with Frenchmen Of war.
The Gdnges line of battle ship and the 2NetiS
itigate (British) are now of this harbour, and a
report has obtained that the port of Rio is blockad
ed by Admiral Otway Certnis IL IS This nCor-
nation is derived from official quarter) that the
British Admiral has orders to make rcpyiSals after
the 10Th Of this month, unless this country has or

Lord Ponsonby the British Envoy
Is II not-my dear sirs, uuaccountably strange
yea ueTy unjust, aud in national point OF view
really humiliatng, that the Cove rnment Of the
u nied States whose citizens have been 80 shame
fully maltreated and robbed of their property by
me subjects oil this semi-barbarian aton,-should
bear, with the most Job-like patience, the wrongs
and ills IL has, and is suffering, and rest sat
isied, with the "promises," assurances" and eva
siOns which are daily given by this Government
10 our diplomatic Agent resident here,--but so it
is! Mr.. Tudor has rendered his resignation and
most anxiously wishes it may be accepted This
speaks volumes.
The S!dve trade to this country expires on the
Slst. OF December next. Conducive as this trade
indirectly Is, to the interest OF the British mer-
tSH~uhp oiSdt pEttalIl, evlueney from motives
purely philanshropic, has never ceased since the
peace of Paris TO urge Brazil TO abandon it; and
she has now think, added another level TO her
crown. TO wit, that by her exerdons and hers on
iy, has Brazil been induced TO relinquish it. and
10 declare, Especial treaty with Great BY that from
and alter the 3lst Dec. next those OF her subjects
found engaged in ii viii be deemed Pirates, and
treated as such.
$4,000 slaves. men, women and children, were
imported into Rio during the year 1928
a few DAYS since brig arrived here fro.l the
coast where she had taken on board four h,tndrcd
and eighty slaves: Previous to her arrival here
and during this passage, there were consigned to
the "bcsom OF The brny deep" 1874 of these il-fa-
ted and unhappy creatures. Most of these poor
WretcheS who expire at sea die for want Of room
and aiei 1t would scarcely be approaching exag-
gera;ion 10 say, that they are literally "iceIgsd
in" tile vessel!--and thus, does avaricious man
thus do these "dealers" in human flesh 6nd them
selves losers in the end, BY grasping too mach in
the beginning.
BUENOS AYRES.-Sdll later intelligence is
received from Buenos Ayrcs, by the arrival of
the brig Hercules, at Salem, bringing d. A. papers
f to the 18th March, and Monte Video to the 2Ith.
AdmiratBrown has issued an order for the forma-
ton oil a battalion of foreigners for the defence

further moi anticipa by former adyices.
MEXICO.
The brig Tampico. Capt. Fish. arrived yester-
day from TamPico, whence she sailed 18th alt The
accounts by her are interesting; the country was
I quiet, and nothing eli Importance had transpired
I since our last advices.-We have been favored by
a friend with the following extract Of letter da-
! ted at Tampco:
! "The important question relative 10 the expul--
sion of the European Spanidrd', which has &C.
cssloned so much excitement in this country for
! a number of years, has at length been decided
the last mail from Mexico brought us the intel-
geDce that the law had passed both houses and
that three months allowed to those affected
by it TO close their business, and leave the coun-
| try
| Capt. Fish states that The law expelling Span
iards includes females. and that those who have
married Patriots have pettioned 10 be permitted
| ~ remain with their husbands.
| We cannot but think that the captain has been
s-informed, for certainly there would not be ny
prop,iefy or pohey ia extending this rigorous law

BY the schooner Maryland. at Philadelphia, in
a short passage from Havana, the editors of the
American have received letter from their cor

" that six pirates have been brought 10 Havana

their guilt will be proved and they will be hanged

convoy regularly. The Shark has Just sailed for

the schooner Hope, from New Orleans for this
