~, MIR. FORSYTH departed hence tor
Spain some months sooner than, at the
time Of his appointment. he had reason
10 expect, IN consequence Of the forma-
ton Of the Treaty, which he bore 10
! Spain. So short notice being given, IL
was not in his power 10 taxi his family
with him. II was understood al the time
| oi bus departure, that he was 10 return
In the United States for that purpose. so
soon as the late of the Treaty shonli be
knowp. RIO.
We very much regret To hear, by way
| oi Philadelphia, of the late death OF Dan
! PEDRO GUAL, who was advantageously
| known, two or three years ago, in This
city, where he resided some months.
He was All accomplished shelar, and AN
, ardent patriot; and wiihal ofgentlemanly
and very amiable manners.
Death is every day thinning the num-
| bprs OF those whose names are familiar
Ia all, aud who have enjoyed universal
! respect and esteem. Among the number
I recently deceased may be mentioned
/ Professor PLAYFAIR, of Edinburgh, dis

requirements. 10.

, relation OF the minister Of The u. States
AT Spain, or from what stale, or whether

| The advices received from South West
America, through Mr. Preros,, the United
States charge dies a6aires ia that quarter,
are SAID 10 be of a very Interesting cha
racier-the eye OF the man has been dis

The Florida Treaty appears 10 excite
disquiciude at the seat Of the general
governmeni-and means are taking TO
prepare the public mind for lis rejection
at the court of Madrid. Appearances no
doubt lean 10 such an an,icipation-bu,
| appearances are too frequently decei,iul !;
II the whole Of the intrigues and cOrrup-
| tons connected with the transaction,
should have been developed NV those
who assassinaied Don Sarmcnto, there
could he little doubt thai the treaty would
| be rejected: but the details Of int,IgueS
OF such nature, are seldom committed
TO paper in such form as TO afford more
than presumptlve evidence; the probabi.
| lily Is, that there are no direct proofs
and the .farorites of Ferdinand, such as
the duke IF AeatOn, being principal sharers
Iii the speculation, whatever of obSiruc-
lion the treaty may receive, cannot be
from that quarter. Ills tn he resolve ed into
| that policy Of ERgLand which has succeed
ed by lis minister, and aided by the
French and Portuguese ambassadors, in
degrading this government into hostility
against South American independence
and this operating in favor of The English
policy, which has in view TO exclude the
United States irop The commerce of s.
America, IN order 10 mouopolize it 10
herself. TU.
