proceed a little further. . Read the following s

'dependence" the British Navyl conduced to
the' preservation of Danhh liberty ! Look at
Austria X Look at Portugal and Spain ! Look,
and with! British alliance, see Empires fall,
and Liberty vanish at her approach ' ;
r Austria, Spain and Portugal destroyed by
Britain ! Is this writer a fool or a madman ?
Was not Spain in .alliance with France, when
Bonaparte, under th,e idle pretext of invading
Gibraltar, poured, his legions into the very
heart of the Spanishirovinces ? Had not the
wealth of Spain been drained,' hgr trade ruin
ed, and her effects sacrificed to aid the cause
of her dear friend and Imperial laity t "And was
she not at war. with Englandat the very mo
ment, that Bonaparte seized the Royal FaHv
ly, took possession of the kingdom and ds
clared Xlurat governorrunlil he should fix the
crownim the head of his brother Joseph I
Was Portugal jn alliance with Ef gland when
the French invaded Lisbcfn ? And as to Aus
tria were not her ports shut against the Brt
tish, until the crimes and" usurpations of
France, and the boundless amBitiou cf frapo
lcon,, had 'conipelltd the Emptlor Francis to
resort to arms, for the security of Iris dom it
ions and the welfare of GevmanyJ? These tacts
cannot, be denied. They are "know to Eu
rope, and to all the world. .But there are men
in this country, who can see no injustice ex
cept in British perfidy and British violence.
Not one word do they uif er against the outra
ges of France. No no, she may sequester
our property, burn our ships, and imprison
bur unfortunate countrymen. It is all well.
we must not complain .".we should end u
vor to conciliate !"
The truth is, 'efforts have been made, are
still making, and will indubitably be persever
ed in, to drag us into a ruinous war with
Englandfund into a fatal alliance with France.
l behoves the American people, therefore, io
look to it : for if we once get within the iron
gripeipf Napoleon, we must bid a " long tare
well to all our greatness."?, r. smetAtoit,
From Cartmaoena.
In the Mercury, Capt. Barnard, from Car
thagena, came passengers Messrs. Henry
Sperry aod Samuel Cook two of the unlortu
nate men who were taken prisoners in Miran
da's abortive expedition. Mr. Sperry sailed
from NevT York in the ship Leander, desuiud,
as he understood, to New-OrIeans,vherc he
expected to have served in the corpo of. ehgi
neers ; but at Jacquemel he discovered soin :
thing of the object df the voyage, anil engag
ed with ctheys in resistance to being ctiTitd
on such an expedition ; they were, li iwevei",
ofsrpowercd, and the consequence has been
what is well known to the pubfic. Thre
years has he worn the chains and perfo tutd
the labors of slavery, in Carthagena, H;dtjr
the most distressing circumst.ances. At length
Mr. Sperry having recerved some money from
his friends at New-York and Philadelphia, ne
made use of it to effect his own escape and
that of three more of his fellow sufferers, leav
mg From 25 to 30 still enduring the horrors
of slavery. These men Mr. S- informs us,
could" easily do as he has done with 6Jly a
small sum' of money. Erom what he could
understand of the disposition of the Spaniards,
they would probably release every Ame: can,
if our guvemmenrwoukl only ask it, as uey
repeatedly enquired, with astonishnent, why.
this wa notjjone ? And when'' anjf one was
reported to the Governor, as having escaped,
he ordered no search alter thtsm ; and c ' this
connivance it was owing that Miv Spep y and ,
hi& companion got clear off.
