THE following LETTEU from au intel ligent gentleman in Florida, to another in this city, in answer to certain enqui ries of the latter as to the soil, dim at < and natural advantages, &c. of that Pro vince, furnishes the best account of th country we have seen ; and will be read with increased interest by the American people, at this moment, when we are abo't cnitip into possession of the terfi ory dt sc ibed. Char ct on Pp* . Dkah Sir — In answer to your en quiry on the natural advantages of Ka-t-Fiorldu, ami the improv-moits of which it is suscejJtible, I will v-m - tore to assert, that, from an extaor di grv combination of (oral cirsum static-s, perhaps no part of the world of eq i ll sire, offers a larger propo - ■turn id’ >f«nd to it evils. .luslice to the subject would afford interestin matter for a large volume. I can, at .present, orl v run you off some of (he outlines ; which,as a native who has passed th.- major part of his years io this province, I have had opportuni ties ofknowing. ’Hast Florida Iv.s natural advanta ges, sufficient to make it one of the ihosi important divisions of North .Am 'i ica; and, indeed, more so thm some that are already opulent. It-,, level face and mild climate,is not ex ceede-l in point of s .lu u itv, l>y any part of either continent; in America; equalled by very few ; and is, per hups, the most free from those con vut ions of natuie, that render pro perty, health, and even life precari ous Its extensive lands, fertile in the promotion o f 'muny valualteai ticles of agriculture ; rich in sponta . nious high-growth and pasturage; and abounding In native quadrupeds, lie waste, to the aiuuu it of above fif teen millions of acres. Its water courses are numerous; and those na vi- able. and profusely supplied with a variety ofsea e skin,and shell fish. Its stores of lumber arc immense: I and the qualities of s-une of them are preferred in all countries where they nave been used, to those of the same denomin ition found elsewhere; par ticularly its pine, cedar, cvpress and live oak, which are the kinds of lum ber most desired in terresiial and maritime structures, and arc those in •which It mast abounds. I have seen Florida pine bought in Savannah (or fhip-huil litig fiftv per cent higher in . pile 1 than fie pine of Ge irgia; and ft is a well known fact, that the Flo rida pine has h,d a reference in the roe d dock-yards of Fnglnnd, ove all other pines that have been brought them. The exports of Florida, amounting at present to almost nothing, would be verv great if it hud but a suffici ent population. For (he last twenty ■ years th *r • has not been “xported one barrel of turpentine, the produce of of the province: whereas, when it was but an infant colony of Great Britain, one commercial bouse ship s ped from the river St. John, in a Season twenty thousand barrels.—. A? lin: In Savannah i» cr, Georgia, (which is in no way equal to our St. . John’s.) are loaded hmulr d» of ves sels a-y-u illv. While the whole of Flo rida does not I > id ten a year; not withstanding Florida has advantages, ansin <• from itsdocal situation, that ore at least equal to fie difference in territorial a-zn, when compared with Georgia : such ns extensive fishing grounds ; large fields for wracking, in the peculi ir situati >ll of its coasts and keys s a more southern climate, more genial to the cultivation of ma ny of tilt* most valuable article- of commerce that are raised in Georg a, and productive of many others in Which th t country does not partici pate, or but in a v<-ry tiinite i degree. Its exports might consist of man: articles, viz : the four denomination of lumber already mentioned, a,| d a Variety of others; cotton, o-d, hemp indi,tobacco, pot and pearl ashes.

These advantages lie dormant, on ly from the want of hands to put them, in motion. .%nd tl.o’ very great en -ouragement has long been held ou> to settlers From all countries, except ing only American citizens, yet wc get none but a few of those, who non and then slip in, and meet w.tli tol (■ration. The people of South A’me idea, our country men, are well known to possess already, 100 much territo ry, and too much indolence, to come this way ; and the great number o 1 people who are constantly emigrating from all parts ot Rutope to the Unit ed Stales, and the British provinces: know nothing of Florida ; nor have we vessels in thai-commerce to bring them out, which abound from those quarters. Hence the cause why they all emigrate to places already crowd ed. and not having the mea s of es tahlishing themselves on their own footing, as must be the case with a very large proportion of them, they go to service to increase the opulence of others: whereas, they would, with the same amount of industry and la- I>ot'here,become opulent themselves, and improve a much finer country. The present population of this pro vince does not exceed five thousand ..Olds, including slaves; and scarce ly half of these are ever occupied in country works ; and those who are, from that di dike to solitude inherent in human nature, all crowd down as near as puss hie to the sea-coast, leaving the etter lands behind them. For as nature lias recede'! from the conveniences of the sea, she has, gen erally, compe sated in the quality of the soil, an I in the protection of its produce. ■A proof of (he mediocrity, and of . course salubiity and comforts of this climate, is vonspi uoua in the per petual verdure flint, universally pre vails, which neither (lie summer’s lie t, tier winter’s col tl is intense e nough tc de-troy, Placed between the mild latitudes of 50° 35' and 34° .) (’ N. and this situ tion modified in winter bv (he proximity of a gulf on each -id , and in summer by a regular eddy of the trade wind, the aveiage of heat igpmicli less than in more Northern climate*, where the trade winds never reach.or in more South ern climates where the trade winds have the heat of a lower latitude to contend with ; nor is the average of our cold so great as in the same la'i tudes. when remote from rhe influ ence of gulfs. I suppose that the influence consequent on the proxim ity of these gulls, is equal, in vt, ter, at t e Northern .extremity of this province, to ne degree of lat ude more south ; and about three times this quantity of difference at its south rn extremity."—The spontane ous productions of the earth, a I a long the eastern sea-coast of Florida, warr nt these cab.ula. ions. I account for this singular eddy, or rather variation of the trade wind, in which tliis province s so much indebted, in this wav: We find that when a wind meets a river at iL lit an gles. it blows directly across ; but when it meets the river at an angle of inclination, it immediately, and in proportion to the acuteness of the an gle, leads up or down as the as may he: always shewing a disposition to follow the course of the water; and this effect is inn-eased in proportion to the velocity of the current of wa ter setting the same way.—.. Tims, he tra-'e wind, in ts course from Past to West, between Cuba and Florida, is met, in part, bv the. Ke\s and Gap of Florida, at an angle of in clination of about sixty degrees, which separate that part from the main current, ai d at the same time cants if towards the North; and its lisp sition to so low the Nortliei sheet of water, which it has now en 'ered. aided by the gulf stream set ting strong y the -ame way, for.us a oropnltion North, equal to the firs, propultion West, and a course N. W. becomes established'; which passing on regularly, as it does from S. E. regales Florida, and terminates or dies away at its Northern extrem ity- There are intervals in the ex tremes of our seasons when the he ami cold are severely felt; but the duration is verv short; the- hea being ramly foffud oppivssive, mnr. than an hour or two at a time ; the cold for more than a day or two—and he nights are gener lly cool through »ut the summer. Nor are these sud len transitions productive of those .erious consequences that so fre piently grow out of them in other ountries. Colds are common with is, but verv rarely indeed aie they known to terminate in consumptive I diseases; lor, a-we do not require 1 .» warm shelter and apparel as are idispensable in less favored di lates, we are not so highly wrought 11 as to receive deep impressions from the transitions; and when we ■ 1 v(* received any at all, the grateful asticity and purity of our dr, soon •i-perses the evil. Nor are we ex- | opt from fevers; but owing to our | appy mediocrity of climate,' and ■ I'irlty of at must here, they do not oc- ( ir o oftc’li, and then they are di- j --ted of that virulence which char icterize some of them to the North, | South aftd West of us; and those of the more fatal kinds, we have never miff-red by ; nay , they have severs l 'imes been imported, but died in the lUhjects who brought them. In short, we hhve ever had but little call fb' the doctor, apothecary. or grave dig ger. The genera! purity of our air is ap- ■ parent to every observer.

It is singularly b.r ren of finny inhabitants ; and lias in its neighborhood, hut a small portion of those classes of land we consider most valuable, '['he inhabitants a long this river, (not formed lor indus try) get orally cultivate the pine bar ren lands in preference, (whi< h, hy the-bye must have been, I tbi k, pine-hearing la mis corrupted it. to pine barren) and these produce boun tiful crops of provisions ; and i have seen fine crops of black seed cotton raised on the-e pine barrens, at thiry five miles distant, direct from the sea coast. The inhabitants say, these lands must be “ cow -pencil,** and then they produ et ree or four g ;od crops in succession ; but on enquir ing into this part of tiieii agricultural process, it amounts to little, more than driving a gang of cattl • a few times across them. And though th v wer literally manured by cattle, one or two years rains would carry its inllnence so deep in these sand/bot toms as to be beyond the roach of annual plants. This allows that they must possess a • innate fertility, cap able of much improvement. 1 men tion t'tese circumstances in vindica tion of onr pine barrens ; wlncn are more estimable farther South, and particularly when they have clay and •th rfirrn bottoms, which often occur. There ate, however, various grades of equality unde this denomination of land ; and -ome of them are good for little else than lumber'and pis tu.age; indeed some of them are good for nothing but as barriers and connections to other lands. Nassau river next succeeds Si. Mary’s, as we go South, and is the only other running in the same di rection. Its bar, lying about eigh teen miles from that of St Mary's. di.es not afford more than from nin< to eleven feet at high water. Its course up, is broad and deep to th d.stance of about twenty ini'-es, wher, it divides into seven large branches, and these appear to have endeavor..! to succeed each other in their muni fold disfor in s; embracing, wiihe their oxtens ve ramifications, an tlie.rirarnediato neighborhood,a la gc amount of most fertile and durable lauds; fine and -xtensi e pasturage for bnstley and horned sto> k. on all side# ; and great stores of lumber io its primitive state. But a great part of the good lands on tins river, wilt be ,-;u‘»|e* f to grievous inundations in wet seasons, until some ol the niure crooked bends of its bra dies are straightened by canals, a- to allow the water a more speedy escape than their present meanders afford. VV e n I »vv come to a truly majestic river: the St John’s Its bar affords aii'iut fi'ieen feet water at best tides and lies about th rty miles s«.uili ot "it. Mary's, and forty 10 the north of that ol ht. Augustine, Continuing is course from the ea, westward, for .bout thirty miles, it corners and uns southwardly, parallel to the sea const, all the rest t its c urse; for ■mug, as it were, a general and ini mouse canal through the internal 1 arts ot (he province ; conununicat •ig b} its tributary and neighbor! - g streams to many part-, and commu nicable at moderate rates, with the a iiolej even those of the western sea •oanl. More wafer than the bar af fords can be carried to Lane Georg*, one hundred and fifty miles up, thro’ which the river passes; and twelve feet through this lake, when the river again deepens for an extent of forty miles beyond, and then passes thro' another lake; and thus cuntineus its course up, forming now ar.ver, and then a lake, towards its source, .which is only known by Indian leports.— From the bar to Lake George, the breadth of the river is, with but few exceptions, from one to five miles; and (eceives the tributary waters of many large creeks, and some detach ed lakes,on both sides. Lake George is a large oval formed spread of the river, exhibiting a sheet of water eighteen miles long and twelve wide, beautifully grind. The undefined territory ol Alachua, lies along the western broad side of the river. 1 will suppose,about* omiles frumEas to VV est, and about one hundred and twenty miles from North to South, and contains large bodies of the mos valuable high lauds; the finest pas -4 turage generally; and in all parts very healthy. To enter into a |> ar ‘ itcular description of this interesting section of the country, would too fur ■xcecd my present limits, and hi ght indeed appear exaggerated ; 1 will, therefore, only state, that hundreds of persons from Tennessee, and Georgia, who have vis ted that part of Florida, agree, that it is the most eligible back country they have ever seen. The lower parts of St. John’s • ivei, afford large bodies of high ham mac land ; heavily timbered wiih five Oak to the water’s e gc ; these are generally light in soil, but very pro dactive, and are much more durable than their appeal aned would indicate, and soon renovat by rest or manure. And on the bin k of these, and indeed, . throughout the cohu ry, general y, we find large bodies of low hammoc . and swamp lands of a strong, rich, ; and dur djle soil, frequently bottomed L with clay and marie. . Higher up the river, the arrangement changes ; the 1 margins ate generally of extensive 1 and valuable river swamps, and on • the back of these, hbh and low ham macs are promiscuously interspersed . among pine barrens. Canals connecting this river with . the Mexican basin, by the bay of lain , pa, or with mor expense, but with 1 more importance, by the bay of App ■■ lathy, cou d be effected. The her culean prospect that such an under taking might, at tire first view, carry with it, will be greatly softened down , on comparing with it the commercial advantages of an inland navigation between the Atlantic shores of the United ‘-dales and the Mississippi; totally a veiling the circuitous, and perilous rout round the Cape and Keys of Floridas, where more disas ters annually occur, than on any other equal extent of the coast oi North and South America. And as the waters of the great Mexican b v are, unquestionably, higher than those on the c s> side of Florida, their a gency would greatly facilitate th work and perpetuate the advantages Tlv* waters o( St. John’s river coulo be easily turned down through the harbor of St. Augustine, by the vva\ of Six Mile Creek, which makes out from that, river about seventy miles fro n its bar, and directly West front St. Augu-tine. This would by deep ening its bar, render lha* well forti tied and salubrious city, a valuabl. sea port, concentrating the wealth ol the province with,in its twofold pro tection. 1 have labored considers Bly in the theory f this project, and expect, at some early pe rod, to lay it before a community, suffi. ieotly large and enterprising to ippreciate its many obvious ad van tages. fiie source o> (his river has never been explored by white people ; nor s it known above two hundred and i.ty miles above its ijiouth, but by 4Julian reports. 1 am, how ver,satis iid fioin my own observations, that t has no other communication above i s mouth, with the sea on either side f the peninsula, as is asserted under various forms in (he geographical •lesct iptions I have seen. lam aware that what may be considered a knock oiin-down argument, will be placed in front of this assertion, viz :—That ,St; Joan’s, which is a f esli water river above the immediate influence of the tides, and indeed its waters are sometimes drinkable beyond its mouth, at sea, should bo found greatly mixed with salt above Lake George. Hu to this I answer, that several arms, or rather lagoons of the river, setting off from the main body on both sides,terminate in large morass es or quagmires, covered only with grass, and which are so extensive as to bound the horizon to a spectator in a boat; and that when the sea is fore cd on to either coast by heavy gales of wind, the redundancy of the salt water which is th rowed into the many small rivers on the weather shore of the peninsula, flows over their adja cent low grounds into those morasses, and thus finds its way into the St. John’s river. It has likewise been erroneously reported, that the neigh borhood of this river is unhealthy 1 am personally acquainted with all the settlers about it for (he last twen ty years; and 1 am satisfied that there has been no cause for such com plaint among those who have lived like civilized beings. As to others, habitual excesses would destroy health, in the garden of Eden. St Augustine city, bar, harbor, wa ters, #c. are sufficiently known to excuse their presence here.—l must however remark, that the northern xtremity of Anastatia Island, which forms the harbor of St. Augustine, is he northern boundary of that re markable kind of stone of which the the city and its fortificatians are built 1 his stone, formed by a concretion ol small marine shells, and perhaps peculiar to (his province, lies in great mines in this island.and runs in simi lar veins southwardly, and along the eastern sea coast of the province, but not spreading off’from it above three miles in any part. It makes excel-, ent and cheap houses, and on ac ount of its soft and unreadable quality, is particularly suitable for fortifications. Progressing about eighty miles fur ther south, we come to Mu»quito In let; a snug and sale inlet ler small vessels, affording from ten to twelve feet of vvut r on its bar. This lead* up to Halifax river, running north, and the Hillsborough, running south, (which are frequently called the Vius quito North and South Lagoons) each about thirty miles in # estent. — The head of the Hillsborough is so nearly met by the head of the Indian river, alias Rio Ys, as to allow a pot age of about a quarter of a mile from one to the other ; and this continues to its bar, about seventy miles farther south. These three, with a part ol the Matanzns river, form a continu ation of territory along h • sea coast, ol about one bundled and fifty miles, that will admit of i* very dense pop ulation. Its salubrious and pleasant situation .long the seashore; the large proportion ol good lands, and their admirable distribution and su pplier qualities; its accommodating waters, superabundantly st.red with a variety of fish ; and its delectable climate, form a series of advantages, not easily conceived by stranger# One body of the good lands within this space, it is said is not exceeded i. quality* nor equalled in quantity by any body of land on the sea board of Georgia and the Carclii.as. The insect c lied the Mu. quito. is said by some prejudiced r not well in orm ed persons, to b» intolerable in (his section of the province; but I know that they are not worse here than the ’ are generall y along the sea coast o : the Southern Stales. On the west side of the Hillsbo rough, about four miles from the inlet, and situated on a quarry of the stone tbove mentioned, formerly B'ood the town of N'-w Smyrna. —Many «!’ its ruins are still visible It sunk to ruins in conseq lertce of the migration of its inhabitants, in a body, to St Augustine - the effect of the despotic sev- ritv of their landlord. From th»* mouth of Indian river, to the promontory of East Florida, about, one hundred and forty miles farther south, we know but little of the interior of the country.—-And thence, all along the western sea board of this pe»iusuU, I am only acquainted by hearsay, and that but from ignorant observers. These ac counts, howiever, go to shew that there are several good harbors along that s> ore,and much good land lying back of it. Chaui.t;rtow, Jan. 31. HAVANA PAPERS. On a reperusal of our papers to the 2i;lh inst from Havana, we find some articles of European Intelligence. . The Spanish pacaet Volunlano , in 42 days from Cadiz, and the ship Cleopatra. 46 duys from Corunna, arrived at Havana on the 15th inst. The following articles, fro m a Madrid paper of the 21st November, is headed as “ Important ” —hut it will, no doubt, be thought strange by oup readers, that the Austrian troops, who were stationed upon the frontiers of Lombardy, to repress any revolutionary movements in that quarter, should themselves have proclaimed the Spanish Constitution Madrid, Nov. 21 —lt is reported, that an extraordinary courier arrived in town this day from Naples, with intelligence that the Austrian troops, when formed in order on the southern frontier of Venetian Lombardy. had proclaimed and adopted the Spanish Constitution Some disturbances took place in Madrid in the month of November, the particulars of which are given in the following extract of a letter from a gentleman in Madrid, to his friend In Cadiz, which was published in the Cadiz “ Diaro.” “I send you the following journal, that you may form a correct opinion of the late occurrences in the Capital. “November 16 —This morning at 10 o’- clock, a courier arrived with two letters, one for the Captain General, ordering him to give up the command of the Pro vince & army to Gen. Cahvajai, and the other for the latter, directing him to as sume the same forthwi h: but Gen. Vi hodet have observed that those orders were not countersigned by any of the ministers as the Constitution expressly requires, did not think proper to obey the orders without previously consulting *he Cabinet.—The Ministers approved of his conduct, and immediately gave in formation to the permanent deputation of the Cortes, who resolved to present a memorial to His Majesty, setting forth the illegality of the above-mentioned order, which had so much alarmed the inhabitants ofthe Capital, that His Majes try’s presence in the metropolis was in dispensably necessary to restore public tranquility, by this lime, all the author! ties have assembled, as also the patriotic societies, and there W’as a considerable stir amongst all classes ofthe people, who seemed greatly agitated: shortly after, the troops spontaneously appeared under arms. “ November 17— Early in the morning the people assembled before the Hall of the Cortes; where the permanent Com mittee of that body had been setting up all night with closed doors. It appeared to be the general wish to know the nature of the King’s answer, and to have an ex traordiuary session of the Cortes called, as the only it: tans of saving the country, in a crisis produced by His Majesty having lent too easy an ear to the suggestions of Ecclesiastical Seryillsm. These demands of the people induced the permanent Committee to present to the King a se cond address, urging his immediate return to the Capital Agitation and alarm pre vailed throughout the whole of the day. The troops again appeared under arms, and muskets were distributed among the citizens, who by the green and red cock ades they wore, and the mottoes on their • iais of Constitution or Death, shewed plainly their hostile disposition to the enemies of the Consitution.
