Allen afterwards died —and D•i* had thought proper to charge Mr. A tinealey with Isis death. This he had asserted in a letter addressed to a Mr. Cooper, and also in a copy of verses which lie hod written. The following extract from his letter fully proved his feeling on the subject : " I hare been at poor Allen's to intlisire about his case,' and mod I was rightly informed—namely, that Anorakv was the cause of his punishment and death.

Notwithstanding the appearance of an official account of the gallant MINA'S capture, doubts contione to be thrown on that event by More recent arrivals flout America. A gentleman who had left the Ileisanuali on the 7th of December states, that lie hail there heard of the overthrow of MIN A'S enterprise, and of his having fallen into the I.cwer of the Spaniards; but previous to his departure subsequeut accounts had arrived, stating, that AIIN A, so far from being a captive in the hands of his enemies, was in reality at the head of a con siderable loner, and hail been successful in some slight engagements with the Itoyalists.—We have had some further arrivals of Amerirais Papers, some of which state, that our Minister, Mr. BAGOT, had protested against the seizure of Amelia Island by the United States. Such a circum stance should not surprise us, for the seizure of Amelia may be considt red as merely the titst step towards the ultimate seizure of the Floti- Jas. and an acquisition of such enormous value as these provinces must prove to the Uitited States, could not be viewed with indifference by tins country. That the United States will attempt to assume the possession of them, we have little doulit. hut the affair may prove somewhat emburrasaisig should the inhabitants not choose to transfer their allegiance to their Republican visitors. The people of the Flotillas might feel us ardent u love of in dependence as their brother colonists in the South, although circumstances might have prevented them hitherto frost, avowing their seutinsl•nt•. The inn. intuit of a transfer might be found convenient for such a declaration, and it would not be consistent with the principles on which the Republicans pro fess to act, were they its such an event to arrogate sovereignty over a people panting fur independence. No foreign nation can he permitted to dictate by force of anus to another people, what form of go vernineut may be conducive to their happiness ; and although the constituti of the Uuited States appeals to guarantee as much civil and political liberty to evety citizen as it is pos sible for an individual, consistently with the gs. tiers! safety, to enjoy, still the inhabit:nits 1.1 the Floridas might slot be pleased to accept their ad mission into the Union, with the hu miliation of a sale or a conquest.

But while we slimild contend ag.iiiiist the policy of permitting the United States to t.eize the Floridan, we should consider the porwssion of them by Grcat Britain us au evil little 'tuft-Our in magnitude. It would sow the seeds of future quarrels between the two Powers, whose mutual *interests require an uninterrupted har mony. The continuance of the Spanish power within them would be far more desirable—but the object fur which we should be best dispostd to la bour, would be the absolute independence of the Proviticev. ILlary Term commenced yesterday. The hu fil!ltfS,l of time Court of King's Bench was of more than ordinary interest. We allude partii niftily to our report of a case respecting the State Ibra,oners wader the Habeas Corpus Suspension Act. It is confidently presumed, that a dissolution of Piirliament will take place in April, after the Money Bills have bean passed. Not long since a rumour was very generally cir culated, that the Emperor of RUSSIA had, hr let ter, requested the Duke of WELLINGTON to inter fere in the negw:iations between France and her private creditors, for the purpose of preventing an interruption in the subsisting amicable relations, and of reconciling any difference that might arise from a too severe enforcement of the engagements of France. The correctness of that rumour is now, in some degree, confirmed, by the appearance of a copy of the Emperor's Letter, which will be found in another part of our Paper. It is couched in terms the most flattering to the Duke ; and in re questing his Grace's intervention, rupreents the Manger that might arise to the safety of France, and the tranquillity of Europe, by strictly eill..rcv g the terms of the engagement, and even implies the injustice of the proceeding, as the payment of these prteate debts had been, in the words of the Letter, " imposed upon France at a time when it was nut case to foresee their result."—A Treasury Journal of last night entertains a doubt of the authenticity of this letter.
