That “time chango manners,” is an
adage, the truth of which appears every day
of our lives. Who would believe that the
following language of the Courier applied
to the Holly Alliance, is tbut of tho same
Courier, which at the time of the French
invasion of Spnin, and on every previous
occasion was the supple and ohscquiuiis
apologist of that association, for the sup
pression offree principles ?
“ The idea of these Royal and Imperial
conservatorsof European tranquillity, elect

ing so absurd an intention to exist) with a
perfect disregard of what England may ap
prove or disapprove, would bo like school
boys giving themselves a holiday without
the consent of their master. ■ They might
have their day ; hut tho rmiBter would be

Fnow Cadiz—The schr Sally Ann, at
Hiis port left Cadiz on tho 14th of April, and
we are favored with pupers to that day, a
Madrid paper of the 7th, and Gibraltar
Chronicles of the 5tli, 6th and 7th, which
contain no intelligence of the least inter
est. Cnpt Vnn Seliaicli informs that the
report received by way of England of the
opening of the Spanish ports to the impor
tation of flour &c. and ofthe purchase of all
the wheat at Gibraltar, was correct; but
the French commander at Cadiz, early in
April, issued an order under pretence of
guarding against the introduction of conta
gious disease, forbidding the entry at that
port of any vosschifrom North or South A-
inerica, from the first of June to the 1st of
Decemher next. There was no scarcity of
Flour at Cadiz, which was well supplied by
French vessels—the pri e was about, 7 dol
lars per barrel, but there was a great want
of salt provisions, and none to be had at the
time except at exorbitant prices.
Mercantile Advertiser.
From Havana,—By the brig Pomona,
we have-received our files of Havana Pa
pers to thc23d inst. They contain nothing
of interest. Our Correspondent writes us
that it was remarkably healthy at Havana,
very few eases of fever existing and those
of a mild character.
A letter from Havana, dated 21st inst.
says:—
* Muscovadoes are still much inquired
for and scarce—and at tho rate at which wo
got yours we should not be able to purchase
at present. They are held at 9-13 a 11-15

Gentlemen—The room in which I lodge
was formerly occupied by a dapper little
gentleman, who is described by the land
lord to have been a most inquisitive char
acter, and withal much addicted to scrib
bling, assuming great airs and talking much
to himself of “ blowing h-up the Jonathans
sky ’igh when he returned to Brummagem!"
This little gentleman, who always appear
ed to look round him with suspicion on
every one born on this side the water, it ap
pears had made his exit, modestly and dis
creetly, without paying his hoard, and has
not since been seen—anil it was much feared,
Mexico.—It is confidently believed in
London, by those interested in Mexican
speculations, that notwithstanding tho late
tariff proposed by the minister of that coun
try, no duty on gold and silver will be im- had boon either devoured by an Alligator or

that lie wifi take them into his family and
rive them a seat at his table again, with i
ifcltur grace than he would do, if they ac
tualiy solicited him for a dinner to keep
them from actual hunger.
For these same reasons, they do much j wbichthe revohnbTb'e vi
as h semblam o honor to the men who fa
uidr-d in separating them from England, to
whose memories they tender tho show of
S ratitude, whilst they curse them in their
earts. For to such men is to be attributed
till the distresses they now experience. Out
of such mere policy they are going to erect
a monuincut which will cost a million of
dollars, to the memory of General Wash
ington, who was buried at his country sen:,
called Bunker’s Hill, which is situated in
Charleston, the capital of the adjoining
8tr.li of North Carolina. It is quite a ro
mantic spot, aud in ardor to save myself
the trouble of a description, I will refer you
to a better one, which you will find in Dr.

ThiR city soon caught the mania for rmfn-
ument-buiiding—and there is no doubt in a
year or two, the whole of this country will
exhibit the appearance of one vast gruve-
yard. By a subscription of two guineas to
each subscriber, they have been enabled to
erect in one of the public squares, a monu
ment to the rebel general ureene; and an
other of marble to the memory of the pat

General Lafayette, a mason of some dis
tinction in Erance, has been imported ex
pressly for the purpose of laying corner
stones. He was induced to come to this
country, in order to realize enough from
such jobs, to pay himself the money he lent
this country when it was struggling with
ours. On his arrival, the government felt
some compunctious vi kings, for having let
his demand remain so long unpaid, and they
endeavored to mnke up for it, by treating
him civilly, and feasting him by fine speech
es and poor dinners—at the same time, they
were practising upon him the most obomin
able deception. They caused to be pub
lished in the newspapers, that he was re-1
ccived with acclamation, and passed thro* j
the country in trinmph. Thinking that as f or N e W-Yoi'k Of, PlOViJeilCC.

But it would not du—some good nutured

gave the government managers a blow up.

twenty acres; lie lately passed through
