We have received a file of American papers, from
which we estract the following from the National Is-
telligencer. "It is rumoured that the Bill which has
passed the House of Repeeseatatives. to appropriate
MOM') for iSs pimplier wriinding Ministers to the as-
lions of South America, will meet with opposition in
the Senate."

WASHINGTON, Avail. 24.—0 f the documents yes-
terday transmitted to Congren, by the President, con-
nected with ths went occurrences in Florida, tie

most important ewe, is a letter from the Secretary of
State to Don Joaquin d'Andaga, minister of Spaio,
giving adeflnitive answer to his complaints against the
proceedings of General Jackson, whilst Governor of
Florida. The letter is of such length, that we have no
room as yet to publish it. The following is the con-
eluding paragraph of the letter, and which affords in-
formation of the deetination of the Macedonian frigate,
which lately sailed from Boston :
" The delays of the Captain-Better:l of Cuba with
regard to the fulfilment of the Royal order traosmit-
tett to hint by Colonel Forbes, were so extraordinary,
and upon any just principle so unaccountable, that the
Minister of the United States in Spain, was, by letters
from the department, of 13th and lfith of June last,
instructed, upon his return to Madrid, to represent
and to request new and peremptory orders to that of-
ficer, for the delivery of the archives in his possession,
according to the treaty. The renewal of the order
was declined, upon the ground of entire confidence on
the part of your government, and command of the
Kier. I regret to be obliged to state, that this just
expectation of his Catholic Majesty has not yet been
fulfilled. Captain James Biddle, commander of the
United States frigate Macedonian, has therefore been
commissioned to repair to the Havanna, there to re-
ceive the documents and archives which Culnnil
Forbes was obliged to leave, and which the Captain-
General and Uovernox:ot will deliver op without
delay." 1
Since the arrival of the above papers we hare re- ,1
ceived Tlir New Yta k Commercial Advertiser of the
Ist of May, which contains the correspondence be-

The. papers themselves are of such a letlith as our
limits cannot at present admit. In the first letter of
the Spanish Minister be complains loudly of the Go.
remittent of the United States encouraging, what he
is pleased to call " the rebellion of provinces which
have received no offence from the souther country,"
and that too, in return for the " sacrifices," which
Spain has made to the United States. la the-sequel
