"How this country is ruined, }" remarked
one of our oldest Forwarders yesterday,
standing on the dock, watching the prog
ress of at least forty vessels that were to
be seen dashing along up the river. under
full sail, as far as the eye coold reach. So
thought we, and what a commentary on
the incesssnt clamoT of the federal press
for harbOT improvements, &c. A person
not acquainted with the extent of the
commerce of the growing west, would
naturally suppose from reading the abuses
Of the government by these papers, that
the immense lakes and rivers were one
vast waste Of waters; and then, again
could they for one day like yesterday, stand
on our docks and notice the long string of
vessels vending their way to the far west,
What change would come over the spirit
of their dreams. Such sights even the

than fair price for the hire of the stores and

Never was there more remarkable or more
successful termination of long-pending national
controversy. From the year 1883 to l795, pc
riod OF twelve years. the lofty spirit of WASHINGTON
had endured the occupation by foreign military
force of posts claimed and held by Spain under the
name of conquests truly American soil, within the
chartered limits of one Of the sovereign States he
had seen denied right to the free navigation Of the
river Mississippi, which Great Britain had exorted
from Spain by the treaty of 1862 and which enured
to the United States by the treaty between Great
Britain and the United States of 1882, prior to the
treaty between Great Britain and Spain OF 1883,
under which the pretensons Of Spain were founded
right absolutely necessary to the growth and ex-
istence OF the Western portion of the Union. With
forbearance which Washington considered not
inconsistent with wisdom, he avoided all that could
rritate or wound naughty Power; appealed to
reason not to force; employed as the representa-
tives of the United States, whether at the court of
Spain or at home, citizens the most distinguished
for their Discretion their experience and their abii-
y; and conformed TO the wishes or the caprices OF
Spain in selecting the place, the manner, or the
time, when peace was his object and success his aim.
Firm and unyielding, because desiring nothing but
what was just, he pursued his objects in his own
way, and even when causes Of irritation occurred,
he never departed from the equanimity and modera-
ton which became his exalted station. On one oc-
casion only he displayed struggling emotion,
when arrogant threat escaped the Minister of
Spain. But instead of permitting the arrogance
and weakness Of the agent to widen the breach, he
sent messenger to know whether it was authoriz-
ed or sanctioned by his sovereign. Culdvating
peace with all nations with sincerity and good
faith--just and magnanmous even to prejudced
and injurious neighbor-he restrained, first through
laws, and thereafter by the highest powers Of the
Government, the ardor of his counsrymen, by
which they were impelled to seize the sword from
those by whom it was legiiimaely held, and obtain
by military aggression the objects of unremitting
negotiation; and, after leaving to his country the
blessings Of peace, he bequeathed to poserty the
magaaimous example of PEOPLE guided by
benevolence and an exalted justice"
Eight years thereafter the wars and revolutions
Of Europe occasioned other difficulties to spring up
in relation to the right Of ieposite, incident to the
conceded right to the free navigation of the Missis-
sippi, review of which will be pursued in a sub
sequent paper.

Speaking of the amount of bullion annually OBJ
tained from the Mexican mnes as compared with
those of Russia, by which they are nearly equalled
in producveness, an intelligent American in Paris,
writing to the Charleston Courier, specuates upon
future possible contingencies in strain of remark
which indicates much juster conception Of the
true mission of the people of the United States than
that entertained by some of our felow-citizens at
home. He insists, in substance, that our primary
object ought to be to guard oOn liberties rather
than to run the hazard of losirg them by becoming
the Don Quixoe of nations under the false assump-
ton that it is duty and prerogaiive 10 rectfy the
political, religious and social evils resulting from
despotc or vciously administered Governments
elsewhere. He says:
English and American enterprise, protected by
stable Government, would soon erect Mexico
into formidable rival to Russia for the supply Of
gold and silver; but | trust that it will never be
the GOVERNMENT OF THE UNITED STATES which
will afford this protection. The mines themselves
would be very questionable good or, rather, in
my opinion, would be very unquestionable curse
TO US. The earths truest wealth lies on the sur
face, and is produced by the plough but when
with the mines we would have to take-THE PEo-
PIE, what refecting man can doubt! We cannot
make slaves Of them, and il is still more imposs-
bic TO make them safe and. good citizens. That
mongrel, degenerate, vicious, contemplate race
can never become the worthy and safe partakers
withNs, upon equal TERMS of our free Institutions
They are too numerous TO assmilate and be absorb
ed, as are the hundreds Of thousands Of European
immigrants who annually come to us. They would
rather absorb the superior Anglo-Saxon race set
Ting among them-degenerating, adulterating,
perhaps, to the present Mexican, but too base to
| be worthy Of and too massive to be safe in pot-
cal and social brotherhood with us. The Span
lard and the countrymen Of Corez were no vile

June, 1895. He soon became apprized Of the diff
Guilty of bringing his mission TO successful issue,
not only in consequence of proposed guaranty Of
Spanish possessions, and the long-confrmed preiu-
dice against yielding the right of deposite their
own territory, by which foreigners were placed on
an equal footing with their own citizens, but also
| from other important subjects which were mingled
with it.
After many conferences, altogether fruiiless, he
at length addressed memoir to the Duke Of Aleu-
dia, dated the 10Th of August, l795, enforcing, in
elaborate but condensed form, the Just rights Of
| the United States Still, however, the objections
and difficulties appeared insuperable. Months were
/ afterwards consumed in conferences, proets, and
counter-projes and il was not until the 9th Of Oc-
tober, l705, that single proposition" that Spain
should cede TO the United States sufficient space
of ground for establishing depot appeared to
present the principal obstacle to a satisfactory ad-
justment. The 20th of October, 1895. the Prince
Of Peace informed Mr.. Pinckney that his Catholic
Majesty, being informed by Mr.. Pinckney's note
Of the preceding day of the objection proposed to
be made to the last article Of the treaty relative to
the permission given by his Catholic Majesty to
the citizens of the United States, for three years
TO deposite their merchandise at New Orleans he
repeated whathe had already said, that Inc could
not vary in the least!" Mr.. Pinckney thereupon,
by his letter of October 81, l795, informed the
Prince Of Peace that "important affairs having de-
manded his return to England, he would have the
honor 10 take leave of their Majcsties the day fol-
lowing and asked his passports.
I This decisive step led 70 more favorable consi-
deration Of the rejected proposition. A treaty was
concluded the 9th Of October 1895, conforming to
the instructions which the American Minister had
received from his Government; relinqushing the
posts within the limits of Georgia, claimed as con-
quests providing for the adjustment and payment
Of losses sustained by American citizens, in con.
sequence Of the wrongful seizure Of their vessels and
cargoes the high seas, by the subjects of Spain
acknowledging the right ofAmerican citizens freely
TO navigate the river Mississippi from lis source to
the ocean, so long unjusily withheld; conceding 70
the citizens Of the United States right to deposiie
their effects and merchandise in the port OF New
Orleans, and to export them from thence, for pc
