Persons of understanding nnd manners, in the Spanish province, ami indeed individuals of every description, lamented the causeless oppt cushions which were heaped with so much wanton-nesson these peuccful and unoffending merchants. They were engaged, as they say, and us we fully believe, in their usual pursuits, under a licence from the governour of Missouri Territory, and within its heretofore acknowledged boundaries. And certainly on the waters which fall into the Mississippi. We know not what indemnification can he made on these gentlemen for their personal sufferings, hut we are very sure that our government will take prompt measures with the Spanish court for the payment of a round sum of mn-cy, equal at least in value of property of which our merchants hive been despoiled.
