FLORIDA CANAL.

The Agricultural Society Of East
Florida have made report on the ex-
pediency and practicability Of uniting
me Atlantic with the Gulf Of Mexico,
by canal across the Florida Peninsu-
la. commencing at St. Augustine, and
ending at Vacassay Bay, embracing a
distance of 90 miles, which is estima-
ted to cost about 10000 dollars, as the
intersection Of several rivers will re-
duce the actual canalling 10 about Is
miles.
This important canal will save dis
lance of nearly 800 miles in doubling
the dangerous Florida reef or shoals,
and bring the trade and commerce OF
New-Orleans and Mexico closer 10 the
southern states.
1t is stated by the editor of the New
York Advocate that the value of the
public lands would be increased five
hundred per cent. by the opening OF the
canal-if such be the fact, the govern
ment of the United States is as deeply
interested in making the contemplated
canal as that ofFlorida, and there can
not be a doubt, that upon proper re-
presentation to Congres SIS, every facility
will be afforded to accomplish the un-
dertaking.

the dogs which fought with the lions,
while standing within quarter OF a
yard of the den in which Nero was con-
fined, the animal on hearing his voice,
made dreadful plunge at him, and
protruding one Of his paws through the
iron rails, seized hold Of the back part
Of his coat. Wedgebury, however,
got away, but was compelled to have
the assistance Of tailor to repair his
coat ane. waistcoat. One Of the dogs
engaged in this brutal sport, is dead,
and the others require great deal OF
nursing to preserve their lives.

PROVINCE OF PASTO.

BY the last post from the South, we
have received positive intelligence Of
the occurrences in this quarter. After
the reduction of that province, there
remained few of the factious hid IN
desert places, where it was impossible
to pursue them. AS they had no means
of subsistence but by robbery, they
laid in wait for travellers, whom they
assaulted and plundered; and after
wards they surprised small detach-
ment posted in Fumes. About this
time some officers, who were not want
ed in Guayaquil, were proceeding to
Bogota, and the factious gave out that
they were fugitives before the Royal
Army in Peru. The Authorities Of
Popa, an and Paste fastened to put a
stop TO such absurd reports. The city
of Paste not only has not been impli-
Gated in this affair, but has even form
ed body OF militia of 600 men, for
the purpose of assisting the veteran
garrison: the people Of the valley of
Patia remain perfectly tranquil.
The commandan,-General ofthe Ca
uca, taking all these circumstances in
to consideration, ordered the two COM
panies OF Militia whom he had called
out for the defence of Popayan, to retire
to their homes, and the Executive Pow
err has recalled its decree declaring the
province under martial law, conceiving
that there are sufficient forces and means
in the province, to accomplish the sup
preston of the banditti.
