In the meanitjm1n the rrorning an angry scene had heenenacled in the hop of a Span iard, named rUonzle. a Spaniard, who sold cigars at the corner u Hi. Cbarlerand (iravier ft reels. This man was a violent friend of the Spanish (ot eminent, and notwithstanding all cautions to lhe contrary, was in lhe habit of denouncing th Filjjluuiera" most furiously, no matter who might' he in bis shop.

Between four and five o'clock, an ailark was. made upon his estab. lishment.

INTERVENTION OF GREAT BRIT AIN AND FRANCE. Memorandum. ! Mr. Crampton. at an interview with Mr. Critienden. at the Dcpartmant of State, on the 27th of Septrmher. 1851, stated that he had been directed by her Majesty's Government to say lo the Uni ted Stales Secretary ol Slate that her Ma jesty's Government Jiad learned with, great regret that expeditions have again bepn prepared in the ports of tho United" States for an attack upon a territory be longing to a sovereign at peace with the United States and in friendly relation with her Majesty. j Mer Majesty's Government do not doubt lbat the Government of the United States Will use all possible diligence to prevent and punish proceedings which are in viol lation both of tjie Jaws of the United Slates and of the law of nations, and her Majesty's Government are persuaded that qch measures, il taken in time, will iici complish their object. But her Majesty' Government deem it duo to the frankness which ought to char acterize the intercourse between the two Governments, to state to that of the Unii ted States that her Majesty's ships-of-war on the West Indian station will have or ders to prevent by forceny adventurers of any nation from landfng with hostile intent upon the hUnd of Cuba. At another Interview, held at,the same Department onthe 6th of October. -Air. Cnttcnden replied verbally to Mr. Cramp, ton as follows ; I am instructed by the President to exi press his regret that such orders as those mentioned in the despatch from Lord PU merston should have been deemed neceal sary and proper by thoBritish Govern menL fto far as thejhave reference to lawless and unauthorized expeditions against the island of Cuba, annrehended frm eif ironc oltnetUnitcrlMates.it is only necessaH'-I to say that suoh expeditions are for bide ri by the laws of this Hepublic. and' that its Government is able and det?rnji"eul X ecut those laws. Evasions of therW may occur, in fpite of the utmost .vigilance nd energy; sucq instaqecs are common It is only by stealth and by favor of rare and acciden tal circumstances that any suco expedi tions can estsape from our tshores ; none of sufficient force or magnitude tp create any aerious apprehension or the safety of Cu ba, and certainly none agaisnt vvnich Spain herself is not abundantly able- to protect that island, The Government of tbe Jnited Stales, always determined, in perfect good faith, maintain its neutral relations, and per form al its national obligations, condems as strongly as the British Government the lawless enterprises against which the or ders in question appear to be directed, and the Government of the United States, equ ally with the British Government, desireg their prevention or suppression. Bat, just and desirable as that end may be, the President could not witness with out concern any attempt W accomplish such an object by means which might eventually lead to encroachment on the rights of the people of the United States. The President is of opinion that, so far as relates to this republic and its citizens, such an interference as would result from the execution of those orders, if admitted to be rightful in themselves, would nev ertheless be practically injurious in its consequences, and do more harm than good. Their execution would be the exer cise of a sort of police over the seas in our immediate vicinity, covered as they are with our ships and our citizens, and it would involve, moreover, to some extent, the exercise of a jurisdiction lo determine what expeditions were of thft character denounced, and who were thft guilty ad venturers engaged in them. I j? The president cannot but apprehend that such orders could not be carried in to efTect without leading, too probably, to abuses and collisions that would constant ly jeopard, and might seriously disturb, that peace and good will which he sin cerely desires to see cultivated and made perpetual between the United States and Great Britain. The President deems it uriecessary to say more at present on the subject of these orders, than to add the expression of his hope that there may never afise any oc casion for carrying them into execution. JUr. Crampton to Mr. Webster. British Legation, Washington, Nov. 1851.

I I am, &c. PALMERSTON. John F. Cramptoj, Esq., &c.' d:c. Acting Secretary of Stale to M. !fe Sarliges. Department of StateI. .Washington, 22rf Oct. 1851. Ihe undersigned, acting Seceitary of State oflhe United State,, has the honor to remind M. de SaitigH,, Envoy Extraordinary and Min tter Plenipotentiary of the French Republic, lhat, in tho inverview which he had with him on Ihe Sth instant, he stated lhat be miht have occasion lo address him in. writing Jpon the subject of the information which M.de Srii"es thencommunicated,thatthe French Government had Msued orders to its ships of war in the West Indies to give assistance lo Spain, and lo prevent by loice ay adventures of! any nation Irom landing wi hostile intent on the Island o Cuba. Having impartedjhat information to the Pre sident, the undersigned has now the honor, by his direciion, to address M. de Sanies in re gard to it. M. de Sarliges i apprized lhat a few days prior to the interview adve.ted to the Charge, d AtTa4roL her Britanic Majesty had given to inis Department ofTicial notice that his Govern, menl had us led similar orders lo its naval forces, lhe Piesidenlhad regarded this as a mailer of grave importance, but its gravity is greatly in creased by the concurrence and co operation ! ol h ranee m the same measure. It cannot be doubted that these orders have been occasioned by the recent unlawful expe. dnion of less than five hundred men, which. having evaded the vigiance uf this Govern- i nent and escaped from New Orleans, were landed by the steamer Pampero upon the Isl and of Cuba, and were soon captured, and many ol them executed. That such an acci dent should have incited the combined action of twogreal European Powers, for an object to which neither ol them is a direct party, and in a manner thai may seriously affi-ct the people of the United States, cannot fail to awaken the earnest consideration of the President, He cannot perceive lhe necessity or proprie y ff such orders ; while he entertaius the rongesi apprejiensions that their execution by I rench and British cruisers will be attended I 1 " ,,?and dangerous consequences to commerce and nea. l th flnh.A Hti.m I hey cannot he carried into eflectj without a Tiiitaliun, examination, and conselent deten tion of our vessels, on our own shotes, and in the greai channel o ourxoasting irade ; and thts must invest British: arid French rruiser. H'Mb the jurisdictiou of determining in the first T5 the Uws of nil aotfnirifs. instance, at least, what are the expeditions do. nounced in their orders, and who are the guilty persons engaged in them. Jt is plain, however different may have been the iniention of the respective Governments, that the exercise of such a power and jurisdic tion could hardly fail to lead to abuses and col litions perilous to the peace lhat how so happi pily prevails. By such an interference,, those Governments seem to assume an attitude un friendly to the United States. The President will not, however, allow himself to believe that this intervention has been intended as an ad monition or reproach to ibis Government. He has signally manifested his condemnation of all such lawless enterprises, and has adopted active measures for iheir prevention and sop. pression. It must aUo be known to the Gov. ernments of France and England, in common with all the world, that this Government, since it took its place among nations, has carefully preserved its good faith, and anxiously endea. vored to fulfil all its obligations, conventional and national. And this il has. done from mo lives far above any apprehension of danger to itself. From its beginning, under the present Constitution, it has seduously cultivated the policy of peace, of not intermeddling in the affairs of others, and of preventing, by highly penal enactments, and unlawful interference by its citizens lo disturhlhe tranquility of coun. tries with which the United States were in am ity. To this end, many such enactments have been made the first as early as the year 1794, and the last as late as 1838. The last having expired by its own limitation, and ad this pre" cedin? legislation on the subject having been comprehended in lhe act of Congress of 20th April, 1818, i: is unnecessary lo do more lhan lo refer M. de Sarliges to its provisions, as marking I i ... . " me signal anxiety and good laiih of this Gov. ernment to restrain persons within its juiisdic lion from committing any acts inconsistent with the rights of others, or its own obligations. These laws were intended to comprehend, and to protect from violation, all our relations with, and duties to, countries at peace with us, and to punish nny violations of them by our citi. zens as crimes against the United States. In this manifestation of its desire lo preserve just and peaceful relations with all nations, it is believed that the United States have gone be. fore and further than any of the older Govern, ments of Europe, Without recapitulating all the provisions of those laws by which the Uni. ted States have so carefully endeavoaed to pro hibit every act that could be justly offensive to their neighbors, it is deemed enough for this occasion to say that they denounce all such en. terprises or expeditions as those against which the orders in question are directed. The undersigned thinks it is of importance enough to call the attention ol M. de Sarliges more directly to this law. A literal copy of it is accordingly herewith communicated. Besides the ordinary legal process, it author, izes the Presideut to employ (he military and naval forces of the country for the purpose of preventing such expeditions, and arresting for punishment those concerned in him. In the spirit of this law the President condemns such expeditions against the Island of Cuba as are denounced by the orders in question, and has omitted nothing for iheir detection and preven tion. To that end, he has given orders to ci vil, naval, and military officers, from New York to New Orleans, and has enjoined upon them the greatest vigilance and energy. His course on the subject has been in all things clear and direct. It has been no secret, and the under, signed must presume that it has been folly un derslood and known by M. de Sarliges. An appeal might confidently he made to the vigi. ganl and enlightened Minister of Spain that his suggestions, or the prosecution of offenders en gaged in them, have been promptly considered, and, if found reasonable, adopted by the Pre sident. His course, it is believed, has been above all question or just cause of complaint. This Government is determined to execute its laws, and in the performance of his duty can neither ask nor receive foreign aid. If, not. withstanding all is efforts, expedition? of small force hostile to Cuba have, in a single vessel or steamer, exciled by Cubans themselves, es caped from our extensive shores, such an acci Q?nt can furnish no ground of imputation either upon the law or its administration. Every country furnishes instances enough of infrac lions and evasions of its laws, which noTower or vigilance can effectually guard against. It need npl be feared lhat any expeditions of a lawless and hostile character can escape from tne united Mates ol sufficient force to create any alarm for the safely of Cuba, or against which Spain might not defend it with the slight est exertion of her power. The Presiden" is persuaded that none such can escape detection and prevention, except by their minuteness and insignificance. None certainly can escape which could require the combined aid of France and England to resit or suppress. Cuba will find a sure, if not its surest, protection and de fence in the justice and good faith of the United States. There is another point of view in which. this intervention on the part of France and Eng land cannot be viewed with indifference by tbe President. The geographical position of the Island of Cuba, in the Gulf of Mexico, lying at no great distance from the mouth oflhe river Mississippi, and in the line of the greatest cur rent of the commerce of the United States, would become, in the hands of any powerful European nation, an object of just jealousy and apprehension to the people of lhe country. A due regard to their own safely and interest must therefore make it a matter of importance lo them who shall possess and hold dominion over lhat island.. The Government of France and those of other European nations were long since officially apprized by this Government that the United States could not see without concern lhat island transferred by. Spain to any other European Slate. President Fillmore lul ly concurs in that sentiment, and is apprehen sive that ihe sort of protectorate introduced by the orders in question might, in contingencies not difficult to he imagined, lead lo results e qually objectionable. If it should appear to M. de Sartiges thai the President is loo apprehensive on this subject, must be attributed to his great solicitude lo guard the friendly relations between the two j countries against all contingencies and causes j of disturbance. The people of the United ' States have long cherished towards France the j most amicable sentiments, and recenLevents, I which made her a republic, hare opened new sources of fraternal sympathy. Harmony and confidence would seena to he the natural rela t:ons of the two great republics of the world ; relations demanded no less by their permanent interests than by circumstances and combina tions in continental Europe which now seem to threaten so imminently the caue of free iu sliturions. The United States" have nothing to fear from those convulsions, nor are they prop agandists! but they have at heart the cause of freedom in aH connliies, and believe lhat the examplej.f (he two great republics of France and America, with their moral and social in. fluencies co operating harmoniously, would go far to promote and to strengthen lhat cause. Il is with I be to views lhat lhe President to much desires the cultivation of friendly feeling between the two countries, and regards with so much concern any cause that may lend lo produce collision or alienation. He believes that this Cuban intervention is such a cause. Tbe system of Government which prevails most generally in E irope is adverse to the prin ciples upon which this lepublic has been found, ed. and the undersigned is well aware lhat the difference beiween them is calculated to pro duce distrost;of; if not aversion to, lhe Govern ment of the (United States. Sensible of this, the people of this country are naturally jealous of European interference in American affairs. And although they would not impute to France, now herselt a republic, any participation ii this distrustful and unfriendly feeling towards their Government, yet the undersigned must repeat that her intervention in this instance, if at. tempted to be executed in the only practicable mode for its effectual execution, could not fail to produce some irritation, if not worse come, quences. The French cruiser, sailing up and down the shores of the United States, to per form their needless task of protecting Cuba, and iheir ungracious office of watchinjfthe peo pie of this country, as if they were fruitful of piracies, would be regarded with some feel, ings of resentnvnt, and the flag which they bore a flag that should always be welcome to the sight ot Americans would be looked at as casting a shadow of unmerited and dishonor, ing suspicion upon them and their Government. The undersigned will add, lhat all experi. ence seems li prove that lhe rights, interests, and peace of the continents of Europe and America will be best preserved by the forbear ance of each to interfere in the affairs ol the other. The Government of the United Siatfs has constantly acted on that principle, and has never intermeddled in European questions. The President has deemed it proper lo the occasion that his views should be thus fully and frankly presented for the friendly consideration of M. de Sarliges and his Government, in or der lhat all possible precaution may be used to avert any misunderstanding, and every cause or consequence lhat might disturb the peace, or alienate in the least the sentiments of confi dence and friendship which now bind together the republics of the United State and France. The undersigned avails himself of this oc casion to offer to M. de Sartiges the assurances of his very distinguished consideration. J. J. CRITTENDEN. translation. Fhh Ncn Legation in the United States Washington October 27, 1851. The undersigned, Minister of France, has received the note dated the 22d of October, which the Acting Secretary of State addressed him subsequently to the conversation he had Ihe honor of holding with him on the 8th of the same month, in the course ol which Mr. de Sartiges had, in a kind and friendly manner, informed Mr. Crittenden, who appeared lo be ignorant of ihe fact of the character of lhe in struelions issued by the Government of the Republic to the commanding officer of the French station at Havana, as soon as it was known in Paris lhat the first detachment of ad. venturers, commanded by Lopez, which an. nounc?d itself as the advance guard of a larger expedition, had succeeded in getting off to sea. Notwithstanding the spirit of kindness in which that communication was made, Mr. Crit tenden reserved himself to point out, in wriling, if upon reflection he should deem it expedient, the considerations which it might give rise lo, both in the mind of the President and his own. Mr. de Sartiges ihank9 him lor having done so ; for while, he sees, in the notes addressed to him, renewed assurances of the strongest sympathy on the .part oflhe American Government, and of the American people, for France and her Government, he also finds occasion to recall certain points of bis conversation which it would appear were not at first presented by him with sufficient clearness. Mr. de Sartiges had endeavored to establish, in a distinct man ner, the Iwo following points : first, that the in structions issued by the Government of ihe Republic were spontaneous and isolated ; se. condly, that those instructions were exclusive, for ao exclusive case, and applicable only to the class, and not to ihe nationality of any pi. rate or adventurer that should attempt lo land in arms on lhe shores of a friendly Power. He had added that the existing laws in regard to the right of search laws about which Ihe susceptibilities of the French Government are j as lorcibly roused as those of ihe Government ol the United States were neither directly nor indirectly affected by the order to repel violence by force ; since the instructions which have been issued to the commanding officer of the French station were only intended to apply to a case of piracy, lhe article of ihe maritime code in force concerning pirates. In again as. serting these two points categorically, as he now does, the undersigned thinks that he has removed all cause of prejudice on the part of the President, both as regards the importance of an act agreed upon in advance on the part of France and England, and lhe likelihood tha. the laws which govern the right of search will be in tbe least affected. He will add thai the altitude assumed by President Fillmore and by his Cabinet, under these lamentable circum. stances, has been so upright thai the French Government, so far from intending to imply doubts, which did not exist, by the measures it spontaneously adopted, had, on lhe contrary, reason lo believe lhat it would find in those same lattitodes ihe American squadron acting in the same spirit and pursuing a similar object. This consideration must prevent any fale con slruciion lending to give to this act of ihe Re. publican Government the appearance of an ad. monition or of a reproach tacitly addressed to the Government of ihe United Slates, and never contemplated by the French Government. Mr. de Sarliges begs lo thank Mr. Critten den for having sent bim the text of the law of 1818, actually in force, for preventing ihe crirpe ol armed invasion of a territory belonging to any friendly Power. He is happy to find lhat the opinion oflhe Representatives of the Amer ican nation is in honest opposition to this spe cies of aggressions, and that Congress has fur nishe1 the President with sufficient means to arrest ibem. These means, placed in strong and able bands, and of which the President openly declares lhat he will make an energetic use, if. unfortunately, the occasion for resort ing ,to them should agajn occur, become ihe much more precious for the peace of the world a. America is closely connected wi,h Eurooe' being only eparated from lhe Uner by a dig lance .carcjely, exceeding eight day, joUrnev by one of irJe most important Pf g4eral ipUtY. e-tithe interest of commerce.
