He rejoiced in being the instrument of creating a most intimate and iraternal intercourse between the citizens of the two republics, and intercourse already commenced, in acts of reciprocal civility, and to be continued and sustained bv those strong foundations, which are always created by an identity of public interests and political principles.

I'he British government has refused to

acknowledge the regency at Madrid Mr.

Canning, in his answer to the duke of Angoulcme's letter on this subject, says

The king having a minister resident

near his Catholic majesty cannot receive a communication of this description, and I therefore return your letter, which I do not consider it my duty even to lay before his majesty." The British parliament was prorogued on the 19th, to the 30th of July. In the king's speech on this occasion, he regrets that his efforts to preserve the peace of Europe have been unsuccessful, & states that he continues to receive from all foreign powers assurances of their amicable disposition towards England. The London Sun of July 21, says 44 the next accounts from Cadiz are ex pected to announce the liberation of the king." Morillo had delivered up Lugo to the French. The French entered Villa Franca without meeting with any enemy, and say they have also taken Cordova. It is said in French papers that two regiments under Ziyas, had gone over to the French. It was reported gen. Sarsfieid had also gone over to the French. The French had commenced the bombardment of Corunna, which was defend

ed by sir R. Wilson, who is said to have 6000 men'o oppose 4,500. The accounts from this place are to the 1 5th July. It was provisioned for six months, and it was thought the French could not blockade

it by sea. It was reported at Lisbon on

Perhaps a mote humane step, as respects the ;ife of Ferdinand, could not be taken, than that sir William A'C'ourt, the English ambassador, should repair to Cadiz, and remain near the king. The fear of displeasing England, might give to her official representative, the pover of averting the fate which seems to us impending over the royal family of Spain. Water Sfiour. A gentleman who sailed from New York in February last, for Buenos Ay res, gives the following description of a water spout: 44 On the 19th of March, lat. 4 N White seated at dinner, we were aroused by the cry of a wafer sfiour ! The captain, male, and sai:ors, weie much terrified -it was indeed a dreadful scene we were lying motionless in a profound calm, not a breath of air circulated the sails were all languid, and nothing was heard, save the terrible roaring of this stupendous column of water, ascending to the dark heavy cloud directly over its bae. It approached us with great rapidity, Sc threatened our vessel with immediate destruction. Fire arms were dischaiged in the air, the sudden jar of which broke the co'umn a iialr below the centre, one I a f tumbling down into the cavity from whence it was raised, the other half ascending to the clouds. It was supposed to be about one quarter of a mile distant, and 50 feet in diameter." FROM THE NATIONAL INTELLIGRNCER. Messrs. Gales l3"Searoti The great value ot the sesamurkiridicuTJi. or bhene plant, is not yet kiK.vvli as generally as it ought to be 1 am indebted for my fust

ate converts to its utility ; and I had the fciaufication of affording relief to many little sufutcrs, through the medium of these very physicians, who, afterwards, repeatedly applied to me lor the plant. On mentioning its properties to Dr. Jas. Smith, last autumn, he suggested the drying of the leaves in the shade, pie vious to their being touched by host, ar d putting ihem away, in order to be pu pated for early attacks of Lhoicra Ir.L.hUm in the spring, which did, and very crtunatciy too, for my own child, about fnc months old in May , was violently seized with this dreadful malady, and upon administering an infusion of the dried leaves it was, in the course of the day, entiiely relieved. The doctor has in his communication omitted to state the simple manm r in which it is prepaied for use which is, by placing one or more of the gieen leaves (aecoiding to the size) in a tum

bler of cool water, and the mucilage is immediate. y impattcd. Sc it is fit to drink. Its great advantage is its insipidity, i he leaves w hen dry, lequire to remain rather a longer time in the water, to deprive them of their mucilage. When giecn, a fuil grown leaf is snfikknt for three or four tumblers of water. It has a ford id me great gratification to have been the means, already thii summer of relieving several children in my neighbourhood, who have suffered severely from the summer complaint.
