THE AMLIIICAti MILITIA.—The returns made
to the Delartmeot of War of Elie -UUned.Stales,
loose as they are, exhi,;it the tcllowing result :
Mas.sacimsetts, 70,7.10 i; New Viiimpsliirt:, ; iklo.ale
Wand, 5,550 ; Conne6tictil, 10,578; Vet otont, no retuin ;

118,918 ; Delaware, no return; Maryland no return ; Vie-
ginia, a5,75it; North Carolina, 50,,587 ; South Carolina, nn
retinal ; Geortzia, no rettth, ; Kentucky, 52,745 ; Ohio,

Au return ; Illinois, 4,143; Missouri territory. 6,502, Midi-
,gan territory, no return; Albama territoq, no return.
From such data as the ahove facts present, the
militia of the States ft out which the returns ate
wanting may be estimated at 150,000 ; which,
• Willi the, roil! ns that are received, will make.the
total upwards of 800,000 ‘Ve are quite sure, if
the returns were as precise as tliy eaigbt•be, that
the numbers enrolled in the militia would be found
considerably to exceed a million.
The American Papers continue the discussions
relating to the conduct of General .Jackson, with
considerable warmth on both sides. We are con-
fident that the General, in as far as he is per-
sonally concerned, would rather have to contend
—with the Wellingtons, the Seminoles,,the Creeks,
or the Choctaws. His reputation is bayoneted,
tornahatcked, and scalped, without his having the
power at retaliating. One honest miter has, it
seems !o us, stated the true ground upon which
the General's conduct is defensible. He says that
the United States must, by some means or other,
obtain possession ofthe whole of North America,
to the Ist ititins of Darien .1.
ALBANY.—Canadian •Wheat —lt appears from
the award of prenittitw, made by the Quebec
Agricultural Society, 'that the Wheat Which took
the t WO highest premiums weighed from 64 to 64
pounds per bushel. Would it not be advisable
tot our Agriod:ural Society to procure some of
this Wheat for experiment ? • It would suit our
clitn,te and soil rcittall'y well with the Talavera
or Other foreign IVlteat, and pei haps better.—
The ,expence of procuring it would be trifling ;
and its which is extremely important to
thie'isiniej, might be accurately ii.,certaitivd.
ktueiv,d this motniug Halifax Papers to
toe 19;h ultitno. We observe w:tb great satis-
faction the exertions which. are :making in that
Provißce for the improiement of i s agriculture.
Several oral Societies bad already been
fronted in diff‘ rent parts of the country, and on
the 1.5111 Dec. a Ptovincial Agricultural Society
was founded at tittfer the patronage of
the Lint naait-Govirnor, the Earl of Ddlhonsie,
who presided at the Meeting, and subsetibed 100
guineas for its support the otal amount of sub-
scriptions by the persons present was 3501. His
Excellency, in his Address on opening the busi-
ness of the Meeting, ascribed the spirit ~1 agri-
cultitral improvement existing in Nova Scotia to
the writing • .1 an unknown person, published in
The dcadtan Recorder, under the signainre of
Agricola, for whom the situation of Secretary was
reserved, shonld he he i..clined to make himself
/known, and accept of it. In the mean time, the
Hon. Judge Hallitiurtoo, at his Excellency's re-
corn:n:ll,la consented to officiate in the. stead
of Agricola.
Some of the Ante rican Papers pretend to give
an outline of a Treaty, said to have been lately
concluded London, between Great Britain and
the [jotted Stales If it is true that the tight of,
fishing. on the British Aintricati coasts, according
to he Treaty of 1783, has 'seen confirmed to the
Uotteu States, it scents tO us that the interests of
the British Colonies base hero again neglected.

LONDON JOURNALS.

FROM ME MORNING PAPERS OF THJS DAY.

[Morning onicle.]

Few political changes have caused a deeper impression on
the manufacturing and commercial classes of the British
community, than the recent transfer of the Florida; to the
United States ; not from any spirit of jealousy or repining at
the American Government, justly improving all advantages
which nature, locality, or a comhi nation of circumstances, hare
placed within their reach, but because, of the striking contrast
between this activity and enterprize, compared with the apathy
and want of foresight so remarkable in our Ministersam Tl ans-
A t !antic affairs. Every hm,ly seems to ask, what his our Cabinet
done in this important transaction, and whither will this
aggiandiaing spirit push itself, if we look .on as uncon-
cerned s10 ? Our empire and influence in the New
World are not half en great as they were fifty years ago. Our
pflicy, formerly so active and so much alive on the remotest
shores of the Atlantic, is now scarcely felt ; nay, it would seem
as lithe whole of purviews Were confined to the rotten concerns
of Emope, and as if we dreaded to extend our attention be-
yond them. Enthralled with barren leagues and treaties,
withheld by Continental tics, and absorbed in politics foreign
to our insular sit Uati.ll, we have forgotten that we are a -mari-
time and, commercial nation, whilst our rival in the West is
gaining moral and physical strength, aggrandizing himself in'
every direction, and feeling the force and expanding opera-
tions of an active',nd unshackled commerce in every quar-
ter of tie globe. To hip our apathy is the richest har-
vest, arid our clogs and enthralments a subject of exulta-
f tion. , His Southern boundary already . approaches vain-
but defenceless portions of New Spain, whilst in the
lttt• .West: be strcches to the Pacific. 'cis nut the other day
,be got possession of Lonisiana, and already-40 steam-ves-
sels, from 100 to 700 tons, navigate the Mississippi and tribu-
tary waters, besides 20 inure, building. Our fur-trade, once
so valuable, is in a state of rapid•decline ; daily complaints
are Made with regard to our fisheries, nay, it would appear as
if every recent Treaty with to Unite! States operated
against us.

On examining the lists of the divisions on the motion re-

specfing Mr. Wyndham Quin, and on Lord A. Hamilton's re-
specting B►irgh Reform in Scotland, we are unable to discover
the name of Sir. Francis Burdett. This omission, we know,
proceeds not from any want of accuracy in those lists. The
Worthy Baronet,, we must allow, acts consistently in thus
absenting himself from questions of such importance when
they come before the House of Commons. He has always
bawled and railed the loudest of the loud, on table, or hustings,
against the corrupt state of the representation, and has uni-
formly oppo?ed or shrbok from the discussion of any practidal
plan of ren►oviug that grievance when stated in the House of
Commons. In Palace-yard or Covent-garden he abuses the
practices of the " Rouse over the way," and declaints against
the •' bad company" to be found there. But when a mo-
tion of censure is made openly and manfully on the conduct
of a Member of that House for bartering his patronage for
Parliamentary interest, the Worthy Baronet slinks away,
either to the domestic ynjOyments of his little coterie of sa-
tellites, or shines the equestrian hero and leader of Cockney
sportsmen-r-

" Sceki►+g the bubble reputation

- Even in the" Juliffe hunt..
Brilliant tts those endowments way be, that enable him to
play so distinguised a part in the Epsom Hunt, they yet are
not precisely the -qualifications which constitute the " bean
ideal" of a Representative for the City of Westminster, and
we venture to prophecy that a period will arrive "hen that
intimation will be given in pretty plain terms to the Worthy
Baronet, the result of which will be, that he will be enabled
,to indulge freely in all his sporting recreations, whilst the
'great interests of Westminster are committed to the care of a
more attentive and useful Representative.—abid.)
Some of the letters by the last arrival from Cadiz mention,

that strong suspicions are entertained of a plot being exten-
sively organized among the troops assembled there for em-
' barkation, to imitate the example of defection from the Royal
canse,sgiven by their fellow-soldiers in two of the transports
belonging to the expedition which sailed last swims% r.—(lbid.)

MARRIAGES IN HIGH Lir‘E.—Lord Elective will shortly
lead to the Hymeneal altar the rich and accomplished Miss
Wickham, every preparation being finally settled for the
happy event.—lt is expected that Lord John Campbell will
shortly lead to the Hymeneal altar the beautiful and accom-
plished Lady Harriett Neville, only daughter of the Earl of
Abergavenny.

We understand that the person whose arrival as Ambassador
Extraordinary from Algiers, and whose introduction to Lord
Bathurst has been announced in the Newspapers, is merely
an agent from the Dey, of a description and 'rank similar to
those agents who hare at different times brought messages to
this country, and that his reception has been confined to what
has been uniformly the practice on such uecasions.—(Mid.)
