late Lord Mayor, by the Radicals, the
friends of Alderman Thorp aud Wood,
during the whole of the or days of the
election, was disgraceful to the city of
London. One of the papers mentions,
that, on the 9th day, g the Lord Mayor
came on the hustings about IL O'Clock,
and was loudly hooted, with the usual
cries of s. Fire Fire Murder! Muir

BRUssELs, Sept. 90.
The Countess de Montholon arrived
here two days ago. 1t is asserted that
she is to 90 TO France with her children.
Her husband will not leave Bonaparte.
Things remain in stdtu quo al ST. Helena,
no change. The same strict watch is kept
by land and by sea. Bonaparte's health

iran, Spain, Sept. ls.-With regard
to the Florida treaty, some new facts
come out daily. Among other ex,raor.
binary circumstances, the Spanish minis
ter required Of Mr.. Forsyth categorical
answer, whether or not he was authori
zed, in case his Catholic Majesty agreed
to ratify the Treaty, to annex thereto q
new article, in which the United States
would pledge themselves not TO acknowl
edge the independence of Buenos Ayres
Ii is understood that the American pleni
potenliary readily answered, that al
though his instructions gave him no pow
ers TO enter into new articles, but merely
TO urge the ratification of an instrument
that already wore perfect and official
form yet, nevertheless, he felt himself
perfectly authorized to say, 10 the name
of his government, that such PROPOSE
ton was totally inadmissible. He further
added, that his impressions were, tina
the U. States would recognize the inde
pendence of Buenos Ayres, or any otbel
ofthe free sections of $. America, which
had sufficient strength and stability tt
warrant such recognition j; and the line o
policy with regard to the new states 0
S. America, was totally independent, o
existing relations with Spain. He farlhe
informed king Ferdinand's ministers, tina
nothing but a desire to evince TO thu
world the amicable disposition of the u
States, had prevented him from with
drawing from Madrid the very instant i
was notified to him the ratification woul,
not take place; adding that in bis spiri
of forbearance he should await the fina
instructions Of his government, which h,
hoped to receive before the end of Sep
TENDER. At the close Of this interestin
and spirited communication, Mr.. Forsyth
assured the Spanish cabinet, that the,
we're not henceforward to consider an,
one of the conditions of the treaty, a
binding on the u. States.
