OUR RELATIONS WITH SPAIN. The following m^ugc was yesterday trans mitted to both houses of congress, by the president of the (Tinted States. To the tenate ami home oj repretentativet of the United Statet. I communicate to congress a corres pondence which has taken place be tween the secretary of state and the en v j| extraordinary and minister plenipo tentiary of his catholic majesty, since the message of the 27ih March last, respecting the treaty which was con cluded between the United States and Spain, on the 22d February, 1819. Alter the failure of his catholic ma jesty for so long a time to ratify the treaty, it was expected that this minister would have brought with him the rati fication, or that he would have been authorised to give an order for the de livery of the territory ceded by it, to the United States. It appears, however, that the treaty is still unratified, and that the minister has no authority to surren der the territory . The object of his mission has bexn, to make complaints, and to demand explanations, respecting an imputed system of hostility, on the part of citizens of the United States, against the subjects and dominions of Spain, and an unfriendly policy in their government, and to obtain new stipu lations, against those alleged injuries, as the condition on which the treaty should be ratified. Unexpected as such complaints ar d suc'u a demand, were, undv r existing circumstances, it was thought proper, without compromitting the government as to the couise to be pursued, to meet them promptly, and to give th^ expla nations thai were desired, on every sub ject, with the utmost candor. The result has proved, what was suffi ciently well known before, tnat the charge of a systematic hostility, being adopted and pursued by citizens of the United States, against the dominions and subjects of Spain, is utterly desti tute of foundation, and that their gov ernment, in all its branches, lus main tained, with the utmost rigor, that neu trality, in the civil war between Spain and her colonies, which they were the first to declare. No force has been collected, nor incursions made, from within the United States, against the do minions of Spain, nor have any naval equipments been permitted, in favor of either party, against the other. Their citizens have been warned of the obli gations incident to the neutral condition of their country; the public officers have been instructed to see that the laws were fully executed; and severe exam ples have been made of some who vio lated them. In regard to the stipulation proposed, as the condition of the ratification of the treaty, that the United States shall aban don the right to recognize the revolu tionary colonies in South America, or to form other relations with them, when in their judgment it may be just and expedient so to do, it is manifestly so repugnant to the honor, and even to the j independence, of the United Slates, that i it has been impossible to discuss it. In making this proposal, it is perceived that his catholic majesty has entirely misconceived the principles on which this government has acted, in being a party to a negotiation so long protract ed, for claims so well founded and rea sonable, ash'.' likewise has the sacrifices which the United Stales have made, comparatively, with Spain, in the treaty to which it is proposed to annex so ex traordinary and improper a condition. Had the minister of Spain offered an unqualified pledge that the treaty should u.. ? i ?--- ? - ? uv i an uc vi uy ms sovereign, on being made acquainted with the explanations winch had been given by this govern ment, there would have been a strong motive for accepting and submitting it to the senate for their advice and con sent, rather than to resort toother mea sures for redress, however justifiable aud proper. But he gives no such pledge On the contrary, he declares explicitly that the refusal of this gov ernment to relinquish the right of judg ing and acting for itself hereafter, ac cusing to circumstances, in regard to the Spanibh colonies ? a right common to all nations? has rendered it impossi ble for him, under his instructions, to make such engagement. He thinks that his sovereign will be induced, by his communications, to ratify the treaty; but still he leaves him free either to adopt that measure, or to decline it. He admits that the other objections arc es sentially removed, and will not, in them selves, prevent the ratification, provided the difficulty on the third point is sur mounted. The result, therefore, is, that the treaty is declared to have no obliga tion whatever; that its ratification is made to depend, not on the considera tions which led to its adoption, and the conditions which it cqntains, but on a new article unconnected with it, re specting v^tch a new negotiation mu?t be opened, of indefinite duration* and doubtful iuue. Under this view of the subjcct, the course to be pursued would appear io be direct and obvious, if the affair* of Spain had remained in the state in which they were when this minister sailed. But it is known, that an important change has since taken place in the government of that country, which can not fail to be sensibly felt, in its inter course with other nations. The minis ter of Spain has essentially declared his inability to art in consequence ol that change. With him, however, under his present powers, nothing couiJ t-tf dune. The attitude of the L'nited States must now be assumed, on full colisidt r ation of whit is due to their rights, their interest, and honor, without regard i?? the powcis or incidents oi the hie mi. sion. \Vc may, at plrasuie, oceupv the territory, whirl) was intended and provided by the late trt^Ly as an in demnity for losses so long since sus tained by o'ir citizenc; but sull nothing could be settled definitively, without a treaty between the two nations. Is thi* the time to make the pressure? If the Uni'ed Sta*es were governed by views of ambition and aggrandiz-meni, many strong reasons might be given in its fa vor. Bui they have no objects ol that kind to accomplish; none which are not founded in justice, and which Can be injured by forbearance. Great hope is enteitained that this change will pro mote the happiness of the Spanish na tion. The good order, moderation, and humanity, which have characterised the movement, are the best guarantee-.: of lib success. l Ike United States would not be justified in their own estimation, should they take any step to disturb its harmony. When the Spanish govern ment is completely organized on tin* principles of this change, as it is e*; pected it soon will be, there is just ground to presume that our differen cs with Spain will be speedily and satisfac torily settled. With these remarks, I submit it to the wisdom of conjures?, whether it wi.l not still be advisable to postpone any decision on this sub] until the next session. JAMES MONROE. Washington, 9th May, 1820. From the National Gazette. THE ISLAND OF CUBA. The people of this noble island seem to have received with the utmost joy* ( the news of the revolution in Spain. Their constant intercourse with the En glish and Americans, the education of many of their youth in the U. States, the attention to our concerns, which their proximity natuialiv induced, and other obvious causes, contributed to dispose their minds towards a liberal system of government, and to inako the constitution of the cortcs even n?;>re dear to them than to the patriots of the mother country. It is an edifying tiling to find the soldiery, as in Spain, co-op cratmg with the multitude, in compel ling the royal authorities to imitate at once the example of Ferdinand. We have in our hands some late numbers of a publication, entitled " memoirs ot the royal economical society of Havanna," which show that important advances have been made there in several branches of public economy, and that an enlightened attention is given 10 ed ucation and agriculture. The policy of encouraging the settlement and mul tiplication of whites, founded on the danger from the number of the black population, and the ncighb^rhjjd qf Htiyii , is proclaimed in the publication above mentioned, and pursued by vari ous expedients. Don Alexander Ka mircz, the present Iutcndant, (an officer of more real authority and efficiency than the governor,) is a man of very liberal ideas, and extensive knowledge. By minute and ingenious table of t .e population of the island, prepared under ins direction, and printed last D.;ce 'Ti ber, it appeal's ttiat the whole number of inhabitants, permanent and transitory, was, in 1817, 630, "80; of whom 314, 202 were people of c dour, giving the so a majority of 75,406, over the whites. We are informed from a good source, that the returns were too low, and that the total may be estimated it eight hun dred thousand, for the present time. The number of free negroes and mui.it toes on the Island, is state I, in the tabic, at 58,568, a fearful propntion!-? the number of blacks imported in 1817, at 25,976; the num'ier of ecclesiastics of every description, spread over the island, at 1, 034, and the number of mil itary at 19,430.
