ent winter. Spain cannot get along without them.

The commandants of Alicant and Cartha-

gena were arrested at the same time as General St. 3 lark. Many executions have ta-

Paris. Dec. 13. The meeting of Council

ot commerce, held yesterday, under the pres

idency ol the Kni!:. is said to have been called, for the purpose of examining a question of importance relative to our maritime rela

tions with the United States.

It is well known that a convention was

concluded at Washington on the 2-1 th of June, 1822, between that power and the

French government, in which it was stipulated that the additional duty on tho vessels

ofthe two nations should not exceed 20 francs per ton. This convention was only temporary, and had for its object to bring about a more extensive durable arrangement. It was agreed, however, that it should have its full elfect until the A of October ofthe present year, and that even after the expiration of that term, it should be maintained until the conclusion of a definitive treaty, or until one ofthe parties should have declared to the other an intention to renounce it, (this declaration ought io be made six months in advance.) In case there should be no such declaration, (and it appears that -uch is the state of things.) the additional duty should be, on both sides diminished one quarter every year, beginning with the present month of October. On this subject, we are assured, Pi I. do St. Creig, President of t he board of Commerce, has made a. report to the Council. AVe, as vet are ignorant of the result of the deliberation. TIILXGS AS THEY ARK. i 4 public censure speaks a public foe, lUnlcss a zeal for virtue guide the blow.'3

Gratitude may justly be ranked among

the noblest ieelings oi the human heart. It is a debt, the payment of which is optional; and happy would it be for our

world, did more of Us spirit pervade man

kind. AYith pleasure we witness, in this city, a

due regard paid to the generous Frenchman

who embarked life and lortune in the con test which founded the basis of this wes

tern empire, lie deserves our attentions;

and, in them, Ac cm his reward.

AVe are gratified, also, to hear, through the public journals, that wherever the

course of Lafayette has been directed, similar attentions have been paid him by the de

scendants ol those who were co-partners

LATEST FROM EUROPE. Nlw-York, Dec 18. By the packet ship Stcphania, Capi. Macy, from Havre, the Editors of the Commercial Advertiser have received several files of Paris paper: to the 27th of October. The London Courier ofthe 26lh was received by the same vessel. The G There is no intelligence from the Greek and Turkish ileets, so late by two or three weeks as has been received

and published three weeks ago.

The Paris papers ot the 2bthot October,

give a letter lrom Constantinople, dated September 26, in which it is represented that the Greeks had been beaten in a suc

cession of engagement:, near Samos; and

this letter is published in several ot our pa

pers this morning, ns news, and without comment. But in order to put the matter completely and at once to rest, on a comparison

ot dates and circumstances, the actions here

spoken of, refer to the engagement between

the Greek and Turkish licet, near Same

and to that with the Egyptian tlect, which

took place early in September, between

Chios and Rhodes. Ample accounts of

these engagements were given in the Com

mercial Advertiser ofthe 30th ultimo, and ofthe 2d and 3d of December. One of the morning papers also publishes a paragraph founded on a letter from Smyrna, ofthe 20th of September, stating that the Greeks were

blockading the Turkish and Egyptian ileets

in the port.j of budrouin and Stancho. In ov;

this account refers to the situation of the

fleets previous to an emracjemcnt 'off Stan-

clio,' in widen the Greeks gained a partial success, the first account of which was published in (his paper on the 30th of Novem

ber hist. Lut, in order to settle the nu op

tion, it is only necessary to bear in mind tfiat

these accounts arc lrom Smyrna, ofthe 20th

and 2Gth of September, and from Constan

tinople of the same date, and then add the fact, on the 30th uK. two American vessels arrived from Smyrna direct, bringing certain intelligence from that place to the 7th

of October, at which time the campaign was ended, on the part ofthe Turks, and both the Turkish and Egyptian Ileets were

dying for safety before the Greeks. AYith these facts before us, it is needless to give

our readers a column of vague and contra

dictory accounts of Turkish Victories, when we have long since received certain intelligence that on the occasions referred to, the eagle of victory perched on the other st andard. England. The trial of Fauntleroy bad not taken place. A consultation of his legal

advisers was to take place on the evening of

the 2ut!i of Oct. It was expected that Mr.

F. would plead quilty, and it is mtiiu.tiect with him in the fortunes of war. May it

gress to offer as equivalent for him in the British General Prescott? -In rine, do the patriots of the revolution deserve aught at : the hands of "this generation?" I appeal to ihe present feelings of Americans! However bright the blaze of patriotism that peiadcsyour hreasts-however much you prize the institutions which patriotism has founded rest assured that hypocrisy lies, as a

worm, at me root oi your gourd, so long as an American revolutionary General contin-v in s to languis h in a dreary prison. And will no friendly hand wipe this stain from the face of our nation's iair fame? Shall the patriot and the soldier go down to his grave from the depths of penury ? Shall not th partner of his youth, who shared his jojs and soothed his sorrows.and over whom the frosts of seventy-two winters have spread their desolations, behold him restored to that liber-' iv which he fought heroically to achieve, -

and which he ought to enjov? Oh, America!

restore him to fieedcm and to i irr, or blush

for ever, under a consciousness of base iucratitude. V. V. Mirror.

that one reason for adopting this course, is, that in the progress of an investigation, facts may transpire which would criminate certain persons who have had transactions with him. An express had arrived at London, announcing the arrival ofthe ship Pacilic, at Liverpool, from New-York. A letter had been received from the Rev. Mr. Colton, written in France, staling that

he had returned from America for the sole purpose of coming to a general and satisfactory arrangement with his creditors. Spain. The accounts from Madrid are to the 1 8th of October. Some disturbances are said recently to have taken place in Bilboa, and many of the richest merchants and proprietors in that city had, in consequence, obtained passports to leave the place. A letter from Barcelona also gives an account of some confusion in the town of Meya, wher? the furniture of some ofthe citizens, which had been seized for taxes, was rescued from the officers by the populace. But not lung very serious occurred.

It is said that an act ot amnesty, more extensive than that of May last, was in con

templation. The project of M. Zea, of

forming an Auhc (. ouncil, has actually been can ied into effect, but, contrary to his wishes, it is composed of the Ultra party, and will prove rather a check upon him than otherwise. A rumcr prevails that the duke of San Caih,?, now in Paris, will become Prime Minister, at the solicitation of his majesty Charles X. The police have again ent away from Madrid a number of great

on the gay surrounding throng, to drop a tear of more than heartfelt sorrow over the sufferings of his hoary kinsman. AVe live under a republican form of gov

mere are some particulars disclosed in

the Documents accompanying the President's message, which may be interesting to our readers such as the following: The whole number of men enlisted to recruit the army, for the year ending 30ih September, 1823, was 2,553. The aggregate strength of our little armv, by the latest return, was 5,779. The aggregate permitted by law, if the ranks were full, is but 6,133. The annua! expense of medical stores for the army, it appears by the Surgeon General's Report, has not been more than 2 50 per man. The deaths in the army in the two first quarters of the year were' but 53, and 13 of them were from consumption. The expense of the National Armory, in Springfield, Ms. lor the ear 1 8 23, was 1 SG, 824 dollars ; that of the Armory at Harper's Ferry, Yir. was 194.368 dollars. In the year 1823, fifteen thousand stand of arms were distributed amongst the militia ofthe several States and Territories, under the act of 1808, "for arming and equipping the whole body ofthe militia." The number of Revolutionary Pensioners is 13,034, that of Invalid Pensioners, 3,736, and that of half pay in lieu of bounty land, 202. Of the first class there died, in the three first quarters of 1 824, 441 : ofthe second class, 73; ofthe third class none. The annual amount of Pensions to the first class is S'1,337,316, to the second ,$298,000,' to third, .$9,876. The number of Military Bounty Land A Variants issued, up to the 22d of November, 1824, is 26,761, covering 4,475,632 acres of land. Sat. Int.

of them to an eternal rest, have borne "the burden and heat of the day." General Lafayette yet lives! General Barton lives did I say i (heaven assist me while I draw the contrast) immured within the walls of a 4;Green Mountain' prison. Twelve years of solitude have separated this aged revolutionary hero from the embraces of an affectionate family and 876 waning moons have witnessed his existence ! Is General Barton an American?
