FACTS !

We have fone advices of date as late as the 9th
of Oaoher from the NTiilfippi. The officers of the
government under the direction of the PRECEDENT of
the United States, have been comfortable time enga-
ged in Investigations concerning the confpiracy Of
which Mr.. Burr is the htsd, and in which feverai
pe-fnns in that neighhorhood lsat rePrelentsd
TO be implicated.
We alto learn, that the spanh governor general
of eaftern Tew-Mezico don Sauda, had arrived at
Nachitoches and declared the rupture of the
tion between the Spaniih governor Cardero, and de-
cared his determination not to regard it, and
turn 70 this Gde Of the Sabine and occupy and main
tain all the territory which the Spanards claimed,
the rifk of all Mexico; and that there was an
army of thirty borjand marching from Mexico to
to his fupport The correspondent who communicates
the above is of the mo respectable character, and his
veracity hyperion doubt he ltates however that
there is Of gaoaade than reality in their threats
and that the menaced forces, tao far ort the mum.
Der iated, more numerous than any force pof-
fefs fouth of the Cheispeake, and that comfortable
forcs will be requGte in that quarter.

felt indignant at the propoftion, confidering
it an infut TO his honor but thought better
to conceal his feelings than TO manifeG his re-

made tour through the weitern country had
procured accurate charts Of every important
