On 'the evening of this day . I began my march towards the city of Cordova, with the view of having therein ao interview with Signor Don Augustin hut.- bide, Principal Chief of the Imperial Army, upon the three guarantees. Let us treat therein of the recipro cal interests of both Spains. My attachment to the Americana, the love of my country, the desire which aninuites me for public good, and the rectitude of my intention*, l flitter myself, are already well knoiew; and that the people will rest persuaded on the prieeding supposition that my voyage is indisprneiblis for the only' Means of insuring the publiA . jranonillity, and cementing the felicity of theeek Lams. Before I so I consider it a debt that.:li now demanded by the affections I owe to 'the well-daserving Citizens of. this place, to take leave of them ; for Whichzpur pee I address tn3Self to your Excellency,, as them,'that for my own part, it should islwaye sp rat. that in no negociation intweatielt.l.wity enter, can the legitimate interests of Spahl,be compromised, that is to say, such as can iiilleitned without in terfering With those wti . C . ls nature has painted out to every Man; and granting the rights of man to u!iited societies that a secure guarantee of the persons anti fortunes or the Europeans established in New Spain is one of the most Barred objects which I have intended to sustain, which, according to the correspondence with the said Chief, he appears disposed to coincide 1.101141i5. faz t Jli they, Secnetiral and jum4. be guaranteed by American honour, that that 1 there is nothing to fear for their pentons .or may own, as lid! for their interest, or that there should be done thesligliest act against my character and representa tion; that I warn them as one in authority, and intreat them, as a friend, to dismiss ill-grounded fear and re- Fors, scattered by restless spirits and movers of evil ; that they make every effort to preserve the public tran imility and respect the Authorities; that they repose c ettiitence in their Chiefs; and if any of them should doubt, from some irremediable fatality. I take upon myself, to convince them, that I have had much expe. rienee, and do not yield to them in sincere good wishes ; ander which idea, the alterations which have not been made, need not be discussed, because they are not in question. I: is net given to every one to have an in timate knowledge of public affairs. If it were possible that an evening parry, could investigate matters, like a Can di, the measures of Government would seldom be fond to merit distrust or criticism. To you Seignor, Governor, I now particularly confide, tocualle known to the public the contents of this letter, Distributing on your part that what is therein ex. pressed may have a proper effect. The wan; of time does not allow me to address myself directly to those inhabitants, nor officiate with the corporate bodies or authorities.' Be pleased. Sir, to communicate this to Inch as may be proper, assuring them all of my grati tude, fat the kind reception I have met with among them, and that 1 trust I shall have it in my power to recompense their hospitality, by more interesting services. Of the Chiefs, Officers, and Public Functionaries Who have accompanied me from Europe, few follow me. The most of them remain in this place. I ought to acquaint you, Sir, that they are all per ms selected by myself, and that they deserve my testience. Under this impression, those. who do sot march to-day on account of their health, ire let! more particularly fecornmended to youi-iExcel itaty, that a speedy march may be made by them in health, and by the sick as fast as they recover, paying "!trose . their just dues ; taking into considatation that this is my order, that it is my recommendation, and th4t they are remarkable for their good qualities, their escellent deserts, and, in consideration of their want 4( MIMS, occasioned by the expenses of the' voyage, trhich should be attended to, and for which they shall he reimbursed.

(Signed) ANDREW JACKSON, Governor of the Florida.. for FROM PERNAMBUCO. We have seen a letter from Pernambueo, of the-23d iitoin which it ie stated, that the•ltevolntionists were atone time within three miles of the town, which they then might have easily taken, as their approach caused great consternation, and a large number of inhabitants deserted the place. Their indecision saved the town, of which the Governor took adv i antage and fortified the parts assailable ; as it is supposed the contest is now doubtful. Business was dull. No Paris journals had reached us when our paper went to press. The accounts in those of yesterday, which we had not time or room to give, relative to the fever iu Spain, are more favourable than the preced ing. A letter from one of the French Physi cians at Barielona, dated the IDth of November states it to be somewhat less fatal, or less rapid in its pro mos, but still it commits dreadful ravages. It at first attacked more particolitly persons, both male and fe male, of a middle age ; then children of from ten to fifteen years, anic _some old men. The deaths at Bar celona on the/th of November, were 58; on the Bth, 81: and 95 on the 9th. Mob communication be tween Barcelona and Barcelonetta is atilt interdicted. Another letter from Barcelona, dated the 14th of No vember, says," The plague diminishes, but the deaths are still on an average, fifty a day." But, from the , 2 ith, of October to the 9th of November, the number Of victims was 1772, which is more than 100 a day. The Dublin papers received this morning bring such details as had been published there of the Coro ner's Inquest on the unfortunate family of the &teas ; and we lament to add, an account of soother murder of a respectable individtial of the South West of Ire land. Relative to the former horrid affair, the Inqui sition does not appear to have elicited any satisfac tory information ; and, as to the latter, it seems to be considered as a melancholy consolation that the mur der was perpetrated not by persons of the description ow*. oggisio4.l, the p revalsafteWsut ,spv . of the common herd of burglars atia rObbero:Nothilt can more 'fully prove the dreadful state in which that part of Ireland is involved, when such a thought can afford relief; but if any further evidence were ne cessary, it will be found in the violence with which these outrages continue, notwithstan4ing almost every village is garrisoned by numerous troops. As an ad ditional means of checking the disorders, it had been proposed to put in force what is called The Preserva., Lion of the Peace Act ; bat so odious find oppressive are the measures it directs, that a numerous meeting of the Magistrates and Oentlemen of the county of Cork Lave remonstrated against the application of the remedy. To fill up the measure 'of distress, it is announced by a Ministerial paper that Ministers have determined to call the Yeomanry of the country into action. if an adequate forceof this kind be employed, and animated as such force °fie:As on occusions of commotion, all spirit of resistance may be in the end subdued ; but it will be by the means of horrors at which humanity will shudder as much as at the disorders which at present prevail. We are told that Britain le the seat - of a generoui humanity, and that solicitude for the unfortunate, anii assistance to those groaning under bondage and sla very, readily sbew by the British people. How then are we to account for those discordant feelings, which* are sometimes manifested, on occasions when the greatest unanimity, one would think, ought toprevail? We have seen an individual who is called a great man, exert himself year after year, to emancipate the Black Slaves in the West Indies, and to annihilate the Atria can trade in humid' flail. We have also seen the same man vote for every measure brought forward to en slave his own countrymen, and deprive them of that constitution which he so frequently panegyrised. We have heard him pass encomiums on a branch of a des picable gang, and talk of Charity, 'Religion, and of Missionary and Bible Societies ; but we have not beard him call upon the Government, or the people to stop the sanguine butcheries of the Turks. Oh no 1 what is charity or butaanity In Africa or the West Indies is natural policy in Greece and in Parga. Instead of manfully standing firm in the cause of suffering humanity, and the persecuted christians in Turkey and Greece, this arch hypocrite and the rest of the saints and pradeat politicians shrink from their duties and professions, and let Chris tianity and humanity take care of themselves. One would naturally have Imagined that in the cause of _tarty and religion these sanctified champions would, have shown thamselves COMICUMBIN If It were. only sok support their usual character as Weeders of the Faith.

Hint gteenily took place, at the Saracen's Head lon, Paisley, to comme morate the "anniversary of his Birth-day. 4n excellent dinner was provided, and a great many very respectable persons were present. The gentleman who was 'chosen President, delivered an appropriate speech on the oeca sion. After the cloth wu removed, the following toasts were given and drank with universal acclamation: Henry Hunt, lung may be live the undimmed friend of Reform. Song—" The Feast of Reason." To the venerable persevering Champion in the cause of Reform; Major Cartwright. Song—" The Hour of Retribution's nigh." To Sir Charles Wollesley, may be live to ►e the free and duly elected Representative of Birmingham. Song The Vine-covered Hills." Mr. Kinloch, of Kinloch,may bis days of exile be fey.

Song— " This is but a'e night in our lives." ,To the Radical K ;formers of Great Britain. Song— " Britons strike home." In the course of the evening, the meeting came to the unhnimons resolution of sending an Address of Condolence to Mr. lidnt. NURZSIBORO, Nov. 17.—Prince Leopold of Saxe Coburg, son-in-law of the King of England, has just passed through our city on Isis way to Italy, where tie will join the Princess, his mother, and remain during the winter. It has been remarked here with smile sur prise that the Prince did not go to Hanover during the King of England's stay there. It is said at Hanover, that the . Minister made the King a present of 10,000 golden George", newly coined, before his departure. Lord Sidniooth having refused to pay the expenses of the journey from the English Treasury, the Exchequer of Hanover has been charged with the payment of the different purchases made by the King, and the considerable cost which hit stay in the city has occasioned. Marrow, Nov. 17.—The Duke de Cadiz, the King's •nephew, awl son of his Royal Highness Don Fran cois de Paule, and Donna Louisa Charlolte, of Naples, (sister of the Duchess de Berri) died on the 15th inst. at the Royal residence of the Escurial. The intelli gence was officially announced to the Cortes, during the sitting of yesterday, by the Minister of Marine. The King, the Queen, and all the Royal Family, con done at the Escurial ; they enjoy excellent health. Recent letters from a British nobleman state, that litany emigrations from Naples were daily taking place daring the last month among . the young men, for the sdpress purpose of joining the Greek standard. The purchase of 5000 horses in the Marches of Magdeburg, for the service of the dismounted cavalry of France, is said to have excited the jealousy of tls 3 0 Prussians, who are affected by the slightest appearance of an arming on the part of France. These repots and fears are absurd; for it must be evident that the present French Gevernment cannot think of going to war.

Autonairehi, his Almoner, and several other persons who were attached to his service. Such is the troth of facts, which the English journals have strangely misrepresented, and which we were not allowed to cor rect sooner. Movixo Morwratx.—Letters from the Tyrol an mince an extraordinary and deplorable event :—A high mountain in the Pusterthal, between the ancient bisboprick of Britten and Carinthia, has suddenly moved, and been precipitated on the little villaae of Made. The whole valley of Muda was covered in an instant with earth, rocks, and trees. It is not known how many persons have suffered by this frightful catastropher.—(Freneh paper.)

It was ac cordingly enacted, under apenaltifinf 201.. that none should be added to this ~. mber. Though this statedmain uneepoiXt Ilearcely necessary to mend much its previsions are disregarded. In 'titt4rof Nonslth *lone, according to the lami list of the present year, there are 59attornies, ansithe county of Norfolk, exclusive of these 53, contains 70 more, Making in all 123, instead of eight. The c o unty of Suffolk adds its quota of 92 to the number of these so styled strife-making personages, raising the number of -in the two counties and city of Norwich to 215, in stead of the 14 of Henry Vl.'s time. A similar in. crease has taken place in the capital, where there are at present not many abort of 3,000 attornies. LORD BACON.—Panaing was, at least, no eridu in the days of the first of the Stuarts, nor Kings nor Nohlitrwere above it.
