The political Intelligence IL unimportsnt.
II appears that the &c port received by the last
arrival, that there was . prospect Of speedy
arrangement between the contendiDg parties
ia Portugal was without foundation.
The London Times OF the 18th says-It
has been before mentioned, that the treaty Of
the quadruplc alliance lately agreed 10 In
London, has been accepted and ratified by the
Court Of Madrid. Our Madrid correspondent.
in his letter OF the 5th inst confirms tins IN
formation. Tho Intelligence received by the
Last packet from Lisbon states that the GO
vernment Of Don Pedro had likewise sanction
ed the treaty by Identification. The Spanish
army is, therefore, not acting in conformity
with the siipula;ions Of the conventions.
The papers contain the following extract
Of . letter dated Toulon, May 5. "Thc Mari
time Project went yesterday on board the A.
merican frigatc United States, accompanied
by the Count de iabrettoniere, Major General
u the Marine al Toulon. The mastsr gunner
Of the frigate was IN irons. and about to be
tried by the court martial. The commander
Of the ship has, 10 Is said, ssnf $1,000 ~ re-
lief for the families Of the men killed and
wounded by the deplorable occurrence Of the
LIST; but tho Prefect refused the money, say
ing that il was an affair to be settled between
the two governments. This morning q boat
with Americans came 10 shore. The aulhori.
ties, having timely notice other arrival, placed

TO prevent them from being assailed by tie

On the subject Of the unfortunate American va
lutte at Toulon, the Preach papers supply the fol-
lowing item:

ACCIDENT AT TOULoN.
NJ Exchasseriaus begged leave TO remind
the Chamber of an unfortunate event which
took Piare at Toulon, the day Of the King.
iete, when an American frigate IN that port
bred seven times upon 4 French vessel called
lie su6ren, and killed two Of the crew. lie
was inclined TO think that this misfortune
must have been the result Of mistake or acct
dent. The Minister Of Marine-l have no
hesitation In saying IL was the result OF aeei-
dent. As proof Of this, shall read a letter
written by the Captain Of the American fri
gate to the Maritime Project. II is as fol-
lows -" Sir, IL is with the profounde.t re-
gret, that, on my arrival from Marseilles, 4
learned the sad accident occasioned BY the
salute given by my frigate in honour OF the
Kings fete. IL Is impossible for me 10 ex-
press what feel upon this occasion. To un-
derstand It, beg Of you 10 put yourself for
moment IN my situation. and beg of you 10
accept The most positive assurance I can
give OF the profound grief Of all ths>oficers
and crews Of the two Anne rican vessels. who
were ut Toulon when this fatal accident
happened" The letter then states, that the
man whose negligence had caused the acei-
dent had been put under arrest, and should
be brought TO Court martial The Captain
terminates his letter by entreating, that as
a testimony Of the regret felt for the aeci-
dent, sum OF $4,000, which had been
subscribed by the officers aud crews Of both
American vessels, should be given TO the
families Of the sufferers.
