We have received further American Papers, from
which we have made extracts, containing a variety of
particulars of interest. It is announced in the Na-
tional Intelligencer, that Pensacola will be surren-
dered, without condition, its any Spanish Agent
duly authorised to receive it; but that St. Mark's
will not be given op but to a force competent to hold
it, uncontrolled by the horde of desperate Indians
and Negroes who occopy the environs of that post.
The PRESIDENT has applied to the Spanish Govern-
ment for the release of Mr. Rottiosox, who has
been a considerable time in confinement at the ila-
;
eannah. This Gentleman is charged 'with having
ben engaged in the expedition of the unfortunate
MINA ; but sootier account asserts, that he . was
plundered of his property, end detained as a pri-
soner by a Royalist party on the Spanish Main, after
f'heing rescued by them from a band of freebooters.
The report of the occupation of Old Providence, off
the Honduras coast, by Commodore Auntroshich was
recently contradicted, is now confirmed by a letter
from himself, dated the 23d of September. The
edvices in these Papers; from Buenos Ayres, con-
firm the accounts which had previoesly reached us,
of the successes of the Pot toguese over ARTIGAS.
They further state, that the Viceroy of Peru, had
made overtures for an armistice for one year, to the
Governmeot of Buenos Ayres. The French colony
in the province of Texas, is said to be receiving
a daily occasion to its numbers, in a ratio which, if
it continues for one year longer, may embolden
General LAELEMAND to attempt the conquest of
Mexico. It should be recollected, however, that
the General and his followers have solemnly dis-
claimed any such design. The representations that
are made of the hostile intention of these exiles, ap-
pear for the base purpose of exciting prejudices
against them. The conduct of those unfortunate
men in the remote asylum to which they have retired,
has as yet afforded no ground for such suspicions.
The Neu York Commercial Advertiser announces,
that Governor CASS, Governor JENNINGS, end Ge-
sterol M'AitTuun left Zanesville on the Ist Septem-
ber, on their way to Fort St. Mary's, to negotiate a
Treaty with severul Indian tribes. It is said that

A letter from Bolmos Ayres, of the 6th June, con.
tains the following remarks :—.14 I should write
oftener, but there is no certainly in corresponding,
as all letters to sod from N. America are examined
by the Supreme Director, while an Englishman en.
joys all the privileges of a citizen. There hap not a
prise arrived here for the last four months. The
English have the whole trade ; their imports amount
to ten millions annually.—The paper of this Govern.
ment is 67f per cent. below per; the People hewing
no confidence in them will not loan what little money
they have. General GARRARA, who was recently in
the United States, is now,at Monte Video—a brot bet
of his was shot about a month ago at hieodoza, no
sue knows for what."

The Treaty of Commerce entered We between
Soeden and the United States will be found in our
other columns. It is a liberal one; and we could
wish to see the relations of friendship and commerce
between this country and America consolidated by an
equally reciprocal contract.

The Paris Papers would lead us to expect the im.
mediate return of our Army to this country. The
letters received in the French capital from Calais
speak of estraordinary movements and busAe which
have for some days been going on in that port. A
great number of vessels are collecting to transport
the English troops, which are preparing to evacuate
the French territory. From the 20th to the 22d inst.
18,000 British troops were expected to repass into
England. On the 140, the quays were all. cleared
for the embarkation of cavalry, and many cavalry
transports were every day arriving. From this state.
