j,6thing in the past conductor the Spanish government, (who had furnished arms men, and money, to our own colonics, when they were in arms against us.) that cculd call for the political etiquette which

vc observed towards Spain. Other nations of Europe had nothing to gain and nothing lo loie, by the acknowledgment, as they had no trade ; but it was a matter wiiich essentially concerned the interests of England, as in the present state of agricultural distress, the loss of a large and prosperous branch of our commerce, vould be severely felt On this question, and in their conduct towards the pirates who had grown by encouragement, he thought the ministers had neglected their duty, and he should on the very first opportunity next session, bring the matter before the houe. Mr. Lushington said, when the time came fur discussing the question, it would appear that the government had acte d with every regard to the dignity c interests of the nation. Latest London papers of Afh August. Great Jin am. The marquis of Londonderry, alias lord Castlereagh, fully took his own iife, on the morning of the 12th of August, 44 by opening an artery" in his neck with a p nknifc. lie was just aiuut to proceed to the continent to be pi t "sent at the appioaching congress. (i' eat eff rts arc made to prove that he had b-en in a state of insanity sometime previous, i,nd he appears to have been indisposed. Dr Bankhead. his physician, was the first person who saw him after the act he thinks it was committed at the moment when he, (the doctor,) entered the room, and the marquis, on seeing him, said 44 B mkhouse let me fall on your arm 'tis all over " The doctor thought he was fainting but, on the instant, the blood began to flow 44 like a torrot from a watering pot,' 'and in about one minute he was dead, during which time about two quarts of blood flowed from him. Even yet he held the knife fst in his hand with which he had cut his t'si oat. Cruel man that he wai, may his sins be forgiven '. Further notice of the cas is not necessary.

The military seems to govern at Madrid several of the provinces arc. in open insurrection and, if the inteliigence w as not chit fly received thro' Trench vehicles, we should apprehend that a most dreadful civil war was on the point rf breaking out. It heems agreed that either the king or the cortes must be annihilated. Turkey Twenty Turkish vessels were missing after the late attack of the Greeks, by fne ships this is the Turkish account ; and the consternation by reason of this great misfortune had not subsided. When the news reached Cons'.amiuuhle, the sultan ordered some hundreds of the Greeks lo be publicly put to dt. at., to calm the feelings of the people, and prevent them from committing murdet 1 The English minister is stated to hae profited by the alarm, and to have obtained some concessions The very important foi tress of Xapoii dc Romania lias surrendered to the Greeks, who have aso possessed themselves ot the citadel of Athens.

American history. There are a number of interesting facts relative to early American history scattered thro' Halmcs' Annats. The editor of the Democratic Press has read the work for the purpose ot selecting such matter as may interest the American people. He submits the result 'o I Robertson and Anderson concur in sta

ting, that in the year 1506, some slips of

t .e sugar can? were brought from the

Canary islands and planted in Hispaniola (St Domingo) wheic they were found to

thuvc so well as soon to become an ob iect of commerce.

Robertson s.ivs, that a few negro slaves

vcie sent to Ame? ica in the vear 1503

In !5'8 negroes wcte imported into St

Domingo by the Spaniards from the Portuguese settlements on tl c Guinea coast. The reason assigned was, that the natives were too fecb.c to w ork in the fields and in the mines. It is clear that in modern times slavery is the offspring ot cupidi

ty Charles V. of Spain, granted t

F emish favorite an exclusive privilege

ol importing into America four thousand negroes. The Fleming sold the privilege for 25,000 ducats to some Genoese merchants, who fust brought into a regular fo.Mi the commerce for slaves betwren Africa end America. A commerce which

is now happily at an end. It is an honor-' able fact in the history of the U. States, that it was the first government which prohibited the importation of slaves. The first charter for a colony granted by the crown of England was granted by queen Elizabeth in 1578 to sir Humphrey Gilbert. By this charter he was autho rized to take possession of all remote and barbarous lands unoccupied by any christian prince or people. The first English colony over planted in America was at Roanoke island, Virginia, in 1585. One hundred and seven persons were left there by sir Richard Greenville, under the government of Mr. Lane. On the 18th of Aug. 1587, Mrs. Dare was delivered of a daughter in Roanoke, which was baptized the next Lord's day by the name of Virginia. She was the

first English child born in the country.

In 1593 the English sent some English ships lo Cape Breton for morse, and oth

ers for whale fishing. This is the first

mention we find of the nvhale fishery by

the English. They found no whales, but

they discovered on an island eight hun

dred whale fins, where a Biscay ship had

been lost three years before, and this is

the first account we have of whale fins or

whale bone by the English.

In 607 the English settlers built a

town in Virginia, and in honor of king

James, called it James Town. This was the Jirst permanent habitation of the En

glish in America.

In ! 6 )8 John Laydon was married to

Ann Hurras, and this was the Jirst mar

riage in Virginia. The first marriage in

New England was in 1621, between Ed ward Winslow and Susanna White.

In 1610 a member of parliament came to America. The commons declared his

seat vacant, because by accepting a colo

nial office he was rendered incapable of

executing his trust this appears to be

the Jirst time that Virginia was noticed

by the English parliament.

In 1 6 1 6 tobacco was Jirst cultivated by

the English in Virginia. rfv 1
