THE FLoRIDAS.


Tie President, we learn. has fixed the
salary Of Gea. Jackson. Governor OF the
Floridas, at d. 5ooo per annum, being the
amount originally paid to the Governor OF
Louisiana, prior to its becoming one OF the
United States.
The organization of the Government in
the F'oridas, will be more difficult task
than was that of Louisiana.
The war between Spain and her Colo
uies; the number o! privateers, Patriot aud
other cruize,s, which swarm about the
West Islands, and the Gulfof Mexico; the
various Indian tribes on the borders, and
the events which occurred during the late
war. demand no small share OF vigilance.
tAent and actiyity-wisdom, in concerning,
and promptness in executing such measures
as may insure the prosperity and tranquility
OF that territory.
From these considerations. the salary al
lowed the Governor, is not unreasonable.
For some time, Gen Jackson will have
much TO perform; 1t will be delicate task
10 mould the inhabitants, together with their
ancient habits and attachments, into iorm
corresponding with the institutions and go
verameut OF the u. States-to establish
new systems--pass new laws and ordinan-
ces-provide for the extension and freedom
of commerce--for the protection OF civil
and religious rights--to provide tor The
general safety against Indian depredat'ons,
secret emissaries and foreign agents-and
TO fortify without aud within. hese duties
are various, and woul1be perplexing 10 any
other person, less gifted with the necessary
qualifications. than Gen. Jackson, than
whom better choice could not have been
made. The commerce of Pensacola and
ST. Augustine, will acquire new Vig"r from
the transfer, and we shall have from that
fine country, sugar and cotton, together with
the tropical fruits, and indigo in abundanc. !;
and in short time. its agricultural and
commercial advantages will be fully deves'-
