Philadelphia Papers to the 20,h ult. arrived
his morning.

(From The Baltimore Telegraph of the iGth Nor.)
Clytain Goyim, of the schooner Harriut, an-
►ived at this Port, in 10 days, from Havannah, ins
forms, that the troops, to take possession of Pen-
sacola, were making preparations to sail, having'
taken several coasting craft for transporting them.
The former Governor wits to proceed with the
Expedition. No cruizers bad been seen off the
Havannah for some time.

The General Assembly of Prince Edward's
Island had been dissolved by a Proclamation from
Colonel DOUGLASS SMITH, the Governor, by
which all persons concerned were to govern thew-
selves accordingly.

Though the reports which have been circulated

through the Opposition Papers, stating that a Re-
volution had actually taken place in Spain, have
been disproved by accounts of a date posterior to
the time at which tl►e event was said to have oc-
curred, and are, indeed, to be deemed malignant
inventions that shew the wishes of the writers,
yet there can be no doubt that Spain is in a very
critical condition, and perhaps on the eve of very

that FERDINAND began his reign under favourable
auspices. It was declared that he intended to

was universally considered as the most wise and
virtuous who ever sat on the Spanish Throne.
We knew this fact from the most positive autho•
rity, and we stated it at the time, anticipating ao
enlightened Government, and consequently a
happy People. What has induced the present

Monarch to devißte from that laudable system,
which has rendered the character of his Grand'

father en object of esteem, veneration, And
affection, we know► not, but the revival of the
Inquisition, and the exclusion of useful literary
works from the kingdom, by the authority of dila
tribunal, plainly evinces, that he is in the hands
of ill-advisers. However we must not trust t*
the reports of the Revolutionary Journals; Oa
Jacobinical Agents in. this Country, and through"
out Europe, who first circulate falsehoods and

then found upon them the most mischievous
reflections, and the most gloomy predictions.--"
‘Ve hope for the best, and should by no means be
surprised to find that the conduct of FertnisANa
has been misrepresented, and his errors much es—
sggerated by those who are constantly endeavour.-
ing to bring Royalty into contempt, and to effect
the total destruction of all Monarchical Govern"
