WASHINGTON CITY,' September 18.
Some time since the sloop Falmouth was
condemned at St. Johns, N. Brunswick, for
receiving on boafd a cargo in certain waters
of Passamaduoddy'Bay, adjudged by the
court ol vice-admirarty 10 be subject exclu
lively to the British; jurisdiction. This sei
zure, we understand, was rnaUe by .vir. Jbeo
nard, a British ollicer bf the customs, &c.
without the eoncerrence of the superior of
ficers of the customs; 'but he has since been
requested by .the' President ofw he council, in
the absence of the lieutenant goyevnor of the
province, to abstain from seizing any Ameri
can vessel, that shotild'be' found under those
circumstances, until further1 instructions res
pecting the matter shr.uid be received from
the 'government of his-Britannic, Majesty.
No doubt is made of Mr. "Leonard's com
pliance with this request which will afford
time for explanation. ' We further learn, that
our government has directed the matter to
be stated to that f Great Britain, with a view
to prevent any luture seizures. . .
' It h ated through the medium of the'Te
deral prints that " his most Catholic majesty
has renewed and continued the appointment
'of the Marquis Yritjo as minister to this
country."'' This' measure of the Spaniih
court," it is added," can be considered in no
other point of view than, as a full and entire
approbation of the conduct of the Marquis
toward this government."
It is most probable that this annunciation
Is from the Marquis himself. 'If so, it is en
titled to little credit ; for the man, who has
heretofore so shamefully 'distorted facts, and
so grossly misrepresented the measures
of our government, may mistate,ancl pro
bably has mistated, in this instance, the mea
sures of his own. Be thi, however, as it may,
the triumph of the federal presses is perfect
ly characteristic of the party, who do not fail
to rejoice at every obstacle that is presented
to the accommodation of our differences with
foreign powers. Be it their boast, that in their
devotion topersonal feelings they forget their
country.
If the king f Spam has unqualifiedly ap
'proved the conduct of his minister, and has
thus made his acts thoc of the Spanish go-
"vtrrnmcht, much as we may regret thi folly
of the measnrt, we. must submit to its ef
fects. Our government has actel wit dig
nity and forbearance. It las cnc'.eavoucd to
prevent the misconduct of a suhordiute a
gent from being convened into u seiiois mis.
: understanding between the two governmtnts.
If ypain will permit henclfto le deccied,
and will adopt the unjust'ifuM conduct of her
agents, She must take the consequences.
The tircnmi'taiices attending this case
strictly enforce the policy of haing thclrast
possible political connection with the notions
cf Europe. Their course of conduct and
motives to Iction are so repugnant to tie ho
Dest principles of nur own pnvernmeM, that
it is scarcely possible to nuKe it.en believe,
that cur views are nst as conti acted or sinis
ter as their own.
Of the gross ignorance of foreigners with
record to our view and mcatire, we have a
iiother conspicuous example in the following
extract horn the London Morning Chro
nicle. 1 'A
If we did not consider the Intemperate
Lnuae of the Americans as occssioncd in

would appear incredible that a people so pru

Europe, should think of quorttUng with the
only power they are connected with, utid fur
cause so easily capb; of explanation and

The reo!uti c.f the clubs and parties
of the Americans are intemperate anu absurd

tish government. . Why. then docs not that
government at once, if the task be o easy,
explain its views, and render that satisfaction
which our interests and their honor require ?
If it refuses or declines' to "do this, when it
can be so easily done, the disposition to quar
rel is on its parti and not on ours.
With regard to the lat paragraph We have
-quoted, nothing which we have seen betrays
a more proiound ignorance ot real facts, tor
we will not be so uncharitable as to ascribe to
the writer a deliberate purpose to misrepre
tienU The fact is, that measures were never
taken by a government with less freedom
from the influence of popular" passion than
those of the last session. . An opinion univer
sally prevailed of the necessity of doing some"
thing, but it was entirely left to the wisdom of
Congress to decide what this should bei It
was felt that the subject was a complicated
one, and the public prints forebpre to press
any particular plan of operations. They con
fided totally in the wisdom ol the government.
As to the illusion made to tavern influence,
it is too contemptible for notice.
