Nov. 1 3.—The President was introduced with the setustomed honours, and immediately rose to address the Chamber. He began by expressing his gratitude, mixed With some surprise, at being selected by his Mu esty in preference to the other Candidates pre, ented by the 'Chamber. "An unbounded devotion to his Ma- jetty and his august Family, to the sacred principles of legitimacy, the sole guarantee of all rights and al! good, the most sincere attachment to the Chamber, the mo nument of the greatest wisdom, and upon which are anded the repose and happiness of France, these are imerests which we all share in common. But there is, Gentlemen, a powerftil consideration which ought to increase the mistrust I feel in occupying this chair for the first time—you all recollect the manner in which itCWas"filled—how much ought you to regret the loss of that wisdom, that rare sagacity, that prudent fim nets, which distinguished my predecessor. The. only consolation we have is in his being called to a new post, in which he is able to give the state the advan tages of his eminent talents. In one point, howevet, thhre may yet be some similarity between us--in the settl with which I shall fulfil the functions confided to me. I shall never forget that the President's first duty is to maintain the most perfect liberty of opinion.; that he is the organ of the laws which you have imposed on yourselves ; and tat he ought, therefore, to be the first mid most faithful observer of the regulations, the strict execution of which so efficaciously secures the order of your deliberations, and prepares for them the hap piest results." The Speech of the President was received with the applause of the Chamber. THF: 1110DOCT. Nov. 14.—The Dille of Richelieu and Count Cor veftn were introduced.

On the.27th of August the Firebrand found herself near three vessels not far from Vera Cruz, which proved to be his Catholic Majesty's ship I)iana of 24 guns, com manded by Jose Sorondo; the Hermaphrodite, Cassidor, and La Gera brigs, of 1$ guns each ; the names of the Commanders of the two last-mentioned vessels were re fused the Americans. There were not less than .500 men on board the two first-named vessels, besides many soldiers. The La Gera, at the time of nieeting, ap peared to be in chase of another vessel. The Diana and Cus►idor took their places on each side of the Fire brand, and although the American colours were hoisted, the Cassidor, without hailing or any other ceremony, fired some of her cannon, loaded with grape and canister shot, into the American, besides a volley of musketry. Capt. Cunningham, of the Firebrand, instantly leaped on a gun and hailed the Cassidor, informed the Spa niards they were Americans, and demanded the cause of the firing. The firing notwithstanding continued, accompanied by the most violent abuse. Capt. Cun ningham being conspicuous from his elevated situation or. the gun, and because of his epaulette, he was aimed. at by a marine; the ball narrowly missed him, entered the breast of an American marine, and lodged in his ned:. After several threats on the part of the Spa niards, Capt. Cunningham was induced to send a boat on board the Diana, when the side-arias of Lieut. A. S. Campbell were taken from him, he was placed under a guard of marines, and the boat's crew were Mit and put in irons. A Lieutenant came on board. the Fire brand, and was hailed whilst on deck by the cassidor to get out of danger as they intended to fire on them, and show them no quarters. It was in vain they returned for answer they were Americans. The Spaniards re joined they were scoundrels and liars. Capt. Cunning ham bared his breast, and told them to fire at him, and not on his men. The American Captain was ordered on board the Diana ; but before he went he ordered his colours down, which the Spanish lieutenant on board refused should be done. The Spanish lieutenant, whilst on board the Firehand, denied • the right of Americans to navigate the Gulph of .Mexico, The whole coast was not only, he said, in a state of blockade, but the Americans had no commerce there to protect. Captain Porter was charged with being a pirate. The Firebrand was then regularly taken possession of by . the Spanish marines, and told she was to proceed to Vera Cruz ; and if the Governor inundall was right, the Americans should be .. .paid their expences. Capt. Cunningham, .however, refused to follow the squadron to Vera Cruz ; but, as they were superior in force, they might take him there if they chose : he would, at all events, represent the transaction to his Government. Shorty after the American boat's crew were returned on beard.
