FLORIDA.

The following article we find in the
Weekly Chronicle of Matches
We have received nothing very late from ives,
F,orida--It is said though, that the Convention
alists are becoming pretty strong, and that they
have between five and six hundred Htn IN the
fort Of Baton-Rouge. The friends OF the old
Spanish Monarchy, are embodying themselves
in the eastern part Of the province TO resist the
Conventionaists.
This affair 10 the Floridas is taking
that unhappy direction ts warfare
which we apprehended, and which if
begun cannot be calculated on as TO
the time or manner of its termination,
In the same paper we find an excel
lent charge from judge Toulmin, 70
grand jury OF the Mississippi terrific.
~, which we shall publish.
The state of things in Floiida, we
think, calls upon our government to in
terfere as mediator outright to the
territory as far as Perdido Bay, is I'M
questionable yet as no actual occu-
patton On our part has taken place,
and no formal surrender, it is TO be
presumed that our clsim only lies o.
yer for time of peace to negotiate it:
But the q .estion now Is, shall we suf-
fer it 10 be wrested from us and laid
waste, and whoever may be the VIC
tors in this array of force in the cas-.
tern and western partsof Florida, shal
we then have TO contend IN war viii

be stimulated by the secret agency o
an enemy TO dive us out OF in ordei
to supplant and annoy us, to form ;

yernment to interfere, and occupy th
territory, and hold it subject 10 the

Yesterday arrived at this port the
fast sailing and regular trading ship
Frances, capt. Taylor, in the very shor,
passage of 27 days from Greenock,
which port she left on the s9th of Aa-
gust. sos
The arrival of the Frances has fur
nishcd the Editors Of the Mercantile
Advertiser with London papers to the
25Ih August, inclusive, four days later
than hitherto received.
1t WAS expected the British Orders
in Council would be repealed, vixen
the Berlin and Milan DEGREES ceased
to be in force.
The harvest in England had turned
out much better tbsn was expected,
but the demand for tie armies abroad

aies 81 ess nation, acted in the COM
mencement of his reign as you have
done, what happiness, what blood and
quiet would have been saved to the
: world. The dupe Of his own simpli-
city, and the slave Of his ministers, he
has saeri6ced the welfare Of his ,pco-
pie, and Kept the world in perpetual
alarms, and WARE, and MISERY. Che
puppet of power, this royal maniac,
has ever been moved 10 and fro, by
his rascaHy ministers, an object Of con-
tempt and derision to. the world, a
cloak to every viliainy, and sanction
60 every nefarious scheme of diaboli-
cal infamy. O! fallen state Of man
o! degrading humility! How dissi-
milar toyour glory. Had heiike you,
dared TO resign power, which his
physical weaknesses, incapacitated
him to exercise, his name might have
passed down to- posterity, nndis-
graced by the shameful ,adiupciions,
tyfsnt, despot, unrs lenting, cruel mas
ter. But not having this dignity of
mind, he has by. persevering to reign,
and cen6ding his power in the hands
ofwcak -cr.vicio1s minis.erswho have
never ceased TO abuse it, alienated the
affections OF his subjects, forfeited all
claim TO their obedience, drawn down
the haired aud conteinpt of the present
race, and ensured the detrssation of all
Postsrity, to remotes, ages.
1 have been led to make these hasty
observations, by my admiration of an
action which cannot be too much adj
nired. 1 not the language of classic
elegance they speak that of the soul.
The hurry with which they have been
written, has precluded TIE possibility
OF correct arrangement, and syste-
matic exposition. The subject is in

otvery important, Ifwerthy OF pub.

in there, which had not beenstaken
when under the guard of British con-
lsoy.s In consequence OF that regula-
ton three ships of the TINTED States,
with valuable cargoeshad beensrefeas-
ed. and 1t was hoped that this conces-
sion would be made throughout all the
ports Of Norway. An opinion gem
Grady prevailed, that the King of Den
mark would he the, successful candi-
date for The succession 70 the Swedish
Throne.
A letter, from Ros.ock; gives unfa-
lvcrable accounts of the state of affaii 5
l'at'that nort. It appears that measures
OF great severity had beenresorted to
in that harbor against all. American
ships, and thar. none OF them were
permitted to land any part of their car
goes.
If Napoleon adheres to his declara
ton respecting the Berlin and Milan
DEGREES, there can hardly be any diff
Guilty even in point of ettequettc, as
to the remains of our Orders in Com
Gil. The words of the French Min.
ister's letter are, &c In this new state
OF things, Sir, am authorised to de-
clare to you, that the DEGREES of Ber-
I'm and Milan are revoked, and that
from the 1st OF November they will
cease to be in force, it being un.
derstood that ia consequence ofehis
declaration, the English shall revoke
their orders in couaoiI, and renounce
the new principles-of blockade, which
they have attempted to establish; or,
that the United States, conformably
to the &C. which you have just commu.
nicated, shall cause their rights to be
respected by the English" "After
this declaration on the part of the
French government that their DEGREES
are revoked and shall cease to be in
force from the first of November,
there is nothing thar can reasonably
prevent a declaration on our part, that
the measures adopted BY US, expressly
on the principle of retaliation should
cease to be in force at the same time
with the obnoxious DEGREES. From
the concluding member of the sentence,
1t indeed appears that the DEGREES are
to be revoked at any rate, provided
the Americans cause their rights
to be respected by the English. Any
backwardness on our parts, there fore,
must embroil US with the Americans,
whom Napoleon now addresses in that
tone OF imsome fattery which he so
readily assumes towards those whom
ne wishes to bend to his purposes.
