DESCRIPTION OF THE rLoRlDAs.

The following extract from Andrew Ellicott's
Journal, will efablifh the important advan-
tages that mutt accrue from the acquition
of the Floridas to the United States. MIR.
Ellicott is one of the greatcf mathematician
in our country; and pofieiied of ftrong
powers for obierving facts and deducing con-
fequenCes.
He was :" late commifIioner on behalf of the
United States, during part of the year 1896,
the years 1897, IS, g, and part of 1900, for
determining the boundaries between the u.
States and the Spauih ponef1ions in Ameri-
Ca" His Remarks on the I" ftuation, foil,
rivers, natural productions, and difeafes of
the different countries on the Ohio, Mifliffip-
pi, and Gulf of Mexice," are publiihed in
Journal of 800 pages, TO. form. Be-
ing the remarks of man, who profeffcs to
have perfonaly infpetted every thing which
he has publiihed, they are of courfe entitled
to particular retpeGt.
To thofe who read the following extracts, no
argument feems to be neceGary to demon
Hrate Mr.. Ellicott's anxiety for the acquif-
tion of the FIoridas. SO itrongiy, indeed,
was he impref1ed with its advantages, that
he has propofed in his preface, ssto ex-
change that part of the Louiliana ceiiion w.
ing to the wet of the Mf!illipp, with his Ca
tholic Majefty for the two Floridas." "The
posi- flions of both nations Gays he) would
be rendered more compact by the exchange,
and it would prevent the commerce of a
large extent of our country lying between
the Mifliiiippi, and Cha,tahocha rivers being
put in jeopardy by the future regulations, or
directions of any foreign power.'
Respecting the firft point, we certainly differ
from Mr.. Ellcott, becaufe we conceive it to
be tcarcely OF greater importance to our fe-
curity, to obtain the free navigation of the
faiihippi and the 1fland of N. Orleans, than
6otb banks of that river.-On the fecond
point, there can exit no difference of
opinion. There is one advantage of navi-
CATION, however, which MIR. Z. has complete
" omitted. it be true, as has frequent
iy been reported, and has been repeated in
letter. from the MifIinippi Territory,
that the Tombighee branch Of the Mobile is
not more than so miles from Bear Creek, a
iiavigable branch of the TennefIee river, the
acquiftion of this country to the Southerr.
States will be above all prise.
