An article not worth extracting front the-Pena.
cola Floridian, says that Great Britain and Russia
are in treaty with the king of Spain for the put.•
chase of the kingdom of Mexico, and that the former
power had offered 15,000,0001. sterling. Whether' .
the,purchatte is to be made in co-partnerships, or the
powers are bidding against each other, we are not
infiirmed, although we are told that the deputies of
New Spain had protested against the measure, and
had transmitted the intelligence to Vera Crus

" FROM THE VISTULA, Nov. 20.—The move-
ments of the Persians seem to be connected with a
general plan slatted: Plich has been formed against
the Porte, and in which none of the possible obstacles
have been overlooked. The Crown Prince of Persia,
who made himself quite independent of the &hah.
his father, is recognized as Sovereign of the finest
and richest half of Persia, commands a considerable
part of the Persian army, and is, as it is believed,
provided, with respect to his conquests, with all Ate
guaranL2es that can be desice.l. By these operations
of the Persians, all Asiatic caravans are :t.tercepted
in their way to Constantinople, which must have a
' great influence both on the proviskaning• of the ea-
tal, a ul on the revenue of the state. The extensive
Asiatic plains are preAsely calculated tin. the Persian
Prince display the whole strength of his excaent
cavalry, and enable hint to destroy, in a few act i.ms,
those swarms of infantry, composed of peasantry an •
artisans, hastily colleted. It is thought that new
movements of the AI ehabites are relied upon,
that the Porte-finds itself uttaeked on. all sides.—
It is supposed that the English are muck alarmed
fur their northern Indian provinces.
