I ISRICA. irlaster, I 1,000 1 . W A :4 mscros OTT. Dec. 6.—From a Gentleman who , I , arrived in this city from Pensacola, which pure he left on the 10th November, we learn, that no reinforce went of troops had arrived there, as had been reported. The Spanish Governor. Calhava, is represented to he re spectable as a man and ps au officer ; but it was supposed if the United States should be obliged to tend a force to iiernpy that part, it would not be in his power, with the I: r.sns at his disposal, to snake any serious resistance. We yet hope there will be no aecessity fur that step on our part. Order issued from the Treasury Department at Wash iegton, addressed to the Collectors of the different ports of the Union, for carrying certain regulations into ef t-ter, as follows: " Treasury Department, Nov. IS, 1819. " In the Circular from this Department, of the 11th April, It 19, it is observed, that when information should he received that the Prussian Government bad repealed its discriminatory duties. so far as they operated against the United States, see should be advised thereof. " From an official communication of a ropy of an Or der of that Government, recently received by this De partment, it appears— " I. That the discriminating duties on the part of Prussia were directed to be abolished on the 14th August, 18114, with respect to the vessels of the United States, and their cargoes. " *. That Prussia is not in possession of any other sea-ports than Konigsberg, Dantsig, Stettin, Coeslin, avid Stralsund. " You will, therefore, consider the vessels of Prussia entitled to the benefit of the Act of the Ildth April, It' IN, entitled, ' An Act concerning tonnage anti discrimina ting dnties in certain eases,' and refund such duties as are inconsistent with the ptoviaions of the Act, and %which have been collected since the 14th of August, 1918, the day on which the reciprocal pleasure on the part Of Prussia took effect." . . .

The facts were these :—AI the Election for a Member to serve is Parliament, after the death of Sir Samuel Romilly, the plaintiff attended at the beatings as one of the inhabiters* of the parish of St. George, Hanover-4quart. and tendered his vote fur Mr. Holiboase. His vote wash*siel ea the F reuud that be bad not paid his rates. The plaiiali being re jetted in front of the hustings, west rotted to the High Bailiff's box, where be asserted that nodsieg but par tiality could induce the Deputy High Bailiff to reject hie vote, as he was sot aware that Isis rates bad been de manded. The Collector hod sever called upon kitv e io i lt did sot know that nay deemed upon him bad been and if he owed the Collector any stun be was then reedy to pay. He pulled Bank-solos out of his pocket for the of paying the W inter, who attended the hest lags, but he resolved pis other sadefoetion than a state. meat that his vote could not be received. Hering been rejected twice on the same ground, he retired without being able to give his vote. Upon this state ment, Mr. Blackburn contended that the plaintiff had sustained a severe injury. He had been deprived of his elective franchise by what the Learned Cestasel iirsciibed to be partiality on the part of the High Bailiff. Ile cited a Dumber of decided cases, to prove that the non payment of rates did not disqualify a voter, but relied chiefly on the Shaftesbury case, in which a Select Com mittee of the House of Commons bad decided by resolu tions, that the son-payment of rates was no Marian chisement of a voter. He Assisi. prove that the Cel• lectors of poor-rates attended on the hostiogs to object to voters, whilst partiality was felt with respect to the voters in the interest of Mr. Lamb. He should prove Commissimser Fraser, of the Navy, residing at Somer set House, was permitted to vote, although he did sot pay scot and lot, and was sot entitled to vote by the Act of Parliament. In the coarse of many efforts made 4y his Learned Friend (Mr. Evans). who was Camped for Mr. Hobboase's Committee, to get the rejected voters admitted upon the poll, his Learned Friend laid 'tie Shaftesbury case before the retunthig officer, inti mating, at the same time, that an action would be brought against him by the rejected voters. !fr.

The refusal of a vote wit..o.it jnetili teflon was in itself an injury, whether it proceeded from mane, or partiality. •Mr. Hinman produced a espy of the writ for the olectioe of a Member to serve is Parliament, is cease game of the death of Sir S.
