"Wherever their is under the sand a salt soil, or under soil, of good clay or olht r earth, the Tees, pioduced by nature, me of good size, and are often intermixed or cf various hinds. 'I he ramc of Florida, giving, it is supposed,from the appearance of health, vigor, and richness, in the wood* and natural growths, is some evidence of the existence of a good subsoil, or under soil Ploughing up the subsoil and mix ing it wdh the sand, Bo ns to nuke a loam, is both easy and profitable. The river bottoms, alluvial lands, and tnarticularly the Delhi j at the mouths of »h" livers, mint he equal in that climate to tlic production of e:iger, C"Jf e, cacao, uv the rdiocolatc nut. and other I Vest ImLa productions. It lias been ah eady mention ed that (lie warmth of the Gulf Sin am, driven from the coast of the Spanish main, iu the latitudes 9to 16 N. nod from the Gardbcan sea, uj> through the streight between Yucatan and Cuba towards Mo bile Bay, and running, a* to its east divi t-ion, from that bay along the coast of Lou isiana and Florida, and along the Peninsu la of Florida to Capes Sable and Florida, nnp, fiomthcnca, along thcVast coast of the peninsula to the north thereof and be yond it, has a very material influence on the atmosphere of the country lately ce ded ons by Spain. The other division ts the Coif Stream, produced by our south '•oast,at Mobile, runs, as the wrecks and drif.s prove, westward, receiving the vast fresh stream of the Mississippi, and carry tig It away Irom the coast of the Florida peninsula. It is repealed, because it is very important to the climate of our new purchase, that the warmth of the (lull Stream, to be presumed from the circum stances of its causes, is fully proved hy the thermometer. It is to be presumed, that it will be, for the tame reason, the bettor mlap eclto the manufacture of salt, as siren, gib iied’i i its saline quality hy the evapo ration tm Icr n sun fiom U to 15 degrees fouth of Turk's Islands. When the great exi.nu of the Florida r cssloii (36,000,000 of acres) in considered mid how small was the extent of the ‘ Frn.rU parts of 3t Domingo, and much ot ’t was uncleared and uncultn tiled, we must peir.i'ic that, if a amn.ll proportion of the lands be rich and good enough for sugar, ccfi‘,e, and cacao, it must he as beneficial * as u I nge West India island. The sugar, coflee, and cacao planters will have abun dant land tor grass, grain, ground provi sions, cattle, hogs, sheep, fuel, building, cooperage, boats, and all other useful and necessary purposes, on very moderate terms, so ns tu enable them to work every acre of their good soil. They may join to their sugar estates plantations of cof fee,* eotion, olives,grapevines, dales, or ang. s, pine apples, tigs, and other things, which arc produced on poorer lands in dimales sufficiently warm and which do not require so many hands as sugar. It is presumed that the turtle fishery, for the meat and tor the shell, will be added by our enterprising fellow citizens of the eastern states, to which may he added the rjfofiis oftho salvage of vessels, which have Buffered ship wreck. It will be onr inter c-st to attract settlements in all the Florida pmts, and a’ong the whole line of its coat, by persons of the first nautical and naval capacities, practice, and experience. Their aid in checking any present or new spirit nf irregularity, on the ocean and a- Oiong the keys and Islets, will be often tin poruvnt, even in time of peace, and will Lc necessary in war. The naval capacities es Florida must ba considered as hignly important to the rich and increasing com nicrc" ami t xporis of the river Mississippi, and all the const of the Gulf of Mexico, and will happily increase and strengthen the bonds of union existing between the states on the great western rivers and those on tnc Atlantic Ocean. This w ill Certain ly be the esse, as Florida now stands, or if tint legislature shall adopt the plan of an nexation proposed by the Convention ot Alabama.

The power of a state government to call out a force lo repel in vasion appears to apply to the actual or ..imminent invasion of some portion of iis ‘own proper territory. It is su’d that mahogany, and several o the woods, ot the coast and islands on and near ihe Mexican Gulf, particularly the dye woods, and the animal dye, called cochineal, are found in Florida, proving the power, of its southern climate, and ad ding to its value tu us.

COL'dMCIANUS.. ■ •mtOrn ‘ From tit* Literary Gazette. < KENILWORTH. As all thoughts arc now tuned back upon the age ofillizaheth, and the deep est curosity excited respecting ll>e actual history of Leicester unit his Countess, wc copy the following passages from an old book, entitled, “’flic Life cf Robert, Earl of Leicester, the favourite of Queen Eliza belli; drawn from original writings and records " Encouraged by the favour r.f the Queen, he flattered himself with the most, presum ing hopes, and gave into an opinion, that C.onlJ lie once get ri(i of bis wife, who was still alive, he need not despair of soon rendering himself agreeable lo her majes ty In this thought the lady is despatched into the country to the house of oik cf Ills dependents at Connive, not far from -dbtngdou, where it is said he first attempt ml to have her token off by poison, but failing in ibis design, he caused her to lie thrown down from the lop of a staircase and murdered by the fall. She was at first obscurely buried at Cornnorr but tbc pri vacy of her funeral having given occasion to censure, he ordered that her body should he taken up, and removed lo the Universily-cVirch of OrfnnJ, wlictc sbe was bnrii <1 again with all >j aginahle pomp and solemnity. Sir Hi chard Verne y, at niy Lord’s commandment, is said lohave been the chief actor in this tragedy. lie was assisted by a villain, who being afterwards apprehended for a crime of another nature, co'nfi used the fact in prison, and was ori vainly made away. And Sir Richard Var ney liimsrlfis reported to have died about the same time in a most deplorable manner ’Tia urged also, that Sirs. Butlar, the wife to a near relation of Lord Robert Dudley's, confirmed the story by her testimony not long before her death. And further, it is alleged that Dr. Uabiag’on, Lord Robert’s chaplain, ns he was preaching her funeral sermon a» her second interment in. the University-church, let full certain expres sions, which argucr-l a oonsciousncs of the fact, by reonunending to tbc memory of his audience, the virtuous lady so pitifully mur dered, inalca! of so piteously slain. The subsequent passage shows how far the wonderful author has adhered to his torical truth in the scene of the levee. Bnvyer, a gentleman cf the black rod, was ordered by express command not lo admit any into the privy-chamber, out such as were well known, or were sworn ser vants to the Queen. Among the rest, a well dressed gentleman, and a dependent upon the Earl of Leicester, was refused ad mittancc; who, relying upon bis lordship’s favour, told him he might repent (if what he hail done, for perhaps he might pur chase his discharge In the midst of the contest, my Lord of Lncc ter accidentally came up, and interposing in the quarrel, told Ihwyerhc was a knave, and should not long continue in his office. And then turning ■!•■ ut to go into the Queen, Row yer steps in before him, thrown himself at her majesty’s feet, tells the whole story as it passed, and begs leave lo know ot her grace whether my Lord of Leicester was king or her majesty queen. “God'sdeal h, tny Lord,” says the Queen, (’i was her usual oath.) “I have w ished you well, but my favour is not ao confined to you, that others shall not share it with yourself. I have many servants to whom t will show countenance, and resume my regardant pleasure. And if you think to bear rule here, I shall lake an effectual method to prevent you. 1 will have but one mistress and un master; and see that no harm happen to bint, for I will severely requite, it at your hands "Upon which the historian remarks, my Lord of Lcicestr's spirit was so far brought down, that bis feigned humility was one ofhis best virtues for a long tune after. Picture cl’ Hymen. A certain painter .at the request of a young gent lonian cy the point of mar riage, drew a portrait of Hymen.—“lbeg (said, this impassioned youth) that jour picture may display all the elegance of graces, the figure cf Hymen that Heaven favoured deity, ought to be far more boaiuiud than that cf Adonis—ln his band should be a lurch more brilliant than that o< love itself-—Summons up therefore all the powers of fancy to your aid, and your reward shall be in proportion to the man ner in which you finish.” The painter who knew the liberality of the gentleman set ardently to work and threw out the w hole ferverofhis genius in the execution of this much expected piece; which byway of compliment he took tare should be brought homo the evening before the marriage—Our young Oroondates, then sporting in die fullest vigour es love sick enthusiasm, was by no means satisfied with live performance —“Friend arid be coldly, to the Fainter, this picture of yours is rather piciiv, but it wants a certain air ut gaiety ; it is destitute of those peculiar delicacies, those touching points, which belong to tbc subject; in short, though tins may be your idea of Hymen, it is by no means mine—You have very indiffe. - ently finished this business, and according to agreement, you will be but indifferently rewarded. The painter, however, who was not more-celebrated m, the genius of Ins p- ned, than Ins knowledge of men, did not take offence, but concluded in a mo ment ovi the conduct lie should pursue, b.r, said he, my picture is not yet dry ■ the colors have not yet hud rime to show themselves,; and to speak freely, this is a ’ kind ot picture that for some time will not. please, or appear to have truth in the drawing —Hut in the course of a few months, I will lake the liberty of brintriiur and then you shall pay me accor- - ding to the hght cm which you see it—i am possitive u will appear quite in anolh erpoint of view— Adieu Sir; I am not pressed far the coney—it |, e j c f t out next injfin lev/’— away wilhhia work, ami the next day W y »»ing gentleman was married —Some month# we re •suffered toelapse lie fore the painter reappeared :■ but at the end <>' these, hearing that »jne of those little matrimonial altercations which Wend light and shade in the conjugal picture, bad passed in pretty quick rehound; he seized on it as the crisis of carrying home Iris portrait. At the time of his entering thc'apartmcnl of the late lover, he found the now lolling husband in all the lassi tude ofmaariedindifferentc uponasopha. j Are you there Mr. Painter ? said he, w i'h out changing his posture, bring your work tins way if you please—Heavens! continu er!, he looking atit, why what an alteration; —Can this posihly he the same portrait 1 You have indeed kept your promise, and the prophecy is fnHil'ed; —lime has I see rendered every feature exact and natural. How wonderful is the effect of six months on the coloring: hut pray now, is not the countenance a little too vivacious f Have not the eyes too much brightness Are not the cheeks 100 delicately roseate ? And (lie whole piece too splendidly ani -1 mated ?—As your pencil was before mar riage too sombreua, it is now ton spirited. Why, sir, you have dipped in the freshest tint of the rainbow —and, what a glory beams from the torch !—lt seems to burn the canvass; but surely the flame of Hy men ought to burn considerably more dull than that of love !—besides the atti tude melhinks; is too unembarrassed— loo cherful and too lull of joy—ot that joy emanating from a soul in bliss, and you have given it an ait of playfulness, which in my opinion, docs not characterize that sober, solid, sleeping deity—l know italus!4)y experience, to be a flattered likeness.—Bir, said the painter, at present Hymen is less beautiful in your eyes than my picture—and six months aj?,o, recol lect my picture was less beautifull than Hymen- llejicve me the picture has not changed— it is your idea—and the reason is obvious—You were then a lover, now you are a husband. “I understand you, interrupted the hus band, say no more—Your picture is more agreeable than my fancy—it is but just that the payment should be in proportion. As your fancy has been richer than mine, so shall my rccompence be richer than your fancy; here is a purse which contains dou ble the sum you expected—Take it, tir, and give me the picture in exchange." New-Yoiik, March 15. A respectatablc meeting of upwards of 200 Old Bachelors, & those aproximating to that state, was held last evening at the .lurlion Hotel. After a good deal of very fine speaking, and many witty ohserva. tions, the oldest Bachelor in tiie room was cal'ed to the chair, when the follow ing recital and resolutions were offered and passed unanimous. Whereas it appears by the public pa pers, that a bill has been introduced into the legislature of this slate, to lay a tax upon Bachelors over the age of 28 years, for the support of remale. Literature. — In what manner the funds are to be ap plied, whether for the endowment of a seminary in which old maids are to be employed as instructors, or whether to get a living; without an helpmate, is un known to us, not having seen the suit! bill or its provisons—but whatever may be the provisions of the said bid, we consider it. unconstitutional Co lay a spccilix tax upon Oid Bachelors, and calculated to produce much, mischief in the community—because it will drive from ;ho utate many good citizens wko prefer a life of celibacy, it will tend to increase Uatchelors, inasmuch as when women find they can be maintained in a single state, many will prefer that mode of life, and refuse all oners of matrimo ny; it will cause many Bachelors .o con ceal their ages, ami thereby lead them to tell untruths, which otherwise they ne ver would have thought of. It will cause old maids to be ten times more intolera ble than they u ually are, by making them independent of husbands fur a livelihood; it will have the.cfTect to destroy that ex quisite sensibility in men who having lost their sweethearts by “hook or by crook” have made pledge to do penance all their lives by living in a single state; it will lead many a man to enter into the holy bands of wedlock without being guided by that all bewitching and delectable pas sions, love, (so essentially necessary to connubial felicity,) and hurry them to marry merely to save the. tax, and conse quently p-oduce many unhappy matches: for no marriage can be productive of hap pincss without love. “Love’s a curious thing you know, It makes one feel all over so ’* It will excite to a retaliation on the part of Bachelors, and cause them in use their influence to get a tax upon old maids: thereby bringing on a civil war between old maids and Bachelors, to the entire destruction of the peace of Socie ty and there will be nothing to attend to but “Hear the pretty ladies talk, Tittle tattle, tittle tattle, L ke their pattens, when they walk, Piddle paddle, piddle paddle." Therefore Resolved, That we will use | our most earnest exertions to prevent the passage of the above named bill, which we consider unconstitutional, and fraught with the most alarming consequences to the peace and happiness of society. Resolved, That a committee lie appoint ed to draft a memorial to ke legislature, praying that the bill may n:\er be and to obtain the signatures of all persons who are opposed to its passage. Resolved, That should the said hill be thrown under the fable, we pledge our selves to unite in the holy bands of mar rioge us soon as w£ can tint! pretty crea tures that will have us. Resolved, That we deeply commiserate the unfortunate situation in wh ci» many o’d maids are placed, though we are sen. sibie that some of them are like Jeremiah a figs,—! lie good are very good: Tiie bad, too sour to give .| le pigs. Jlcsaued 1 hat it be recommended to establish a Jlm.se of Industry for Old Mauls, and that Oid Bachelors contribute towards their support bv giving them d’u'n “ Se " ‘ 0 Bnd -locking*to | Resolved, That the tbanu of tiie meet- ! rng be given to the landlord for the I <u the room gratia * I ft wu carved, and carried, That k com mittee ut v five gentlemen be eppuinted to draft a'mcmorisd o tin.

Bachelors' Meeting.— The Daily Adver tiser informs us, that two hundred old ha didst s asse mb leal on Wednesday even ing last, at the Auction Hotel,, and hail a great deal of fine speaking about the contemplated law for taxing jthem to pro mote literature among the old vmifo- Ihe ■ preamble and resolutions contain some un kind cuts, which gallant bachelors should have omitted Some woithy single ladies, wc learn, from thd circumstance of the meeting being called at the Jluction Hole!, 1 bad »n idea that the crusty old bachelors ■ intended to oiler themselves at audios, and those lad'u-s were about to attend the sale, and prcbly would, but for receiving belter information. Cot. Non folk, March 21. «M\\r3cv—most £ow\. Yesterday afternoon between 4 and 5 o’clock, an inquest was held over the bo i dy of a man, found 1} ing dead in a house , immediately back of (hat part of Church street opposite to Plume’s Hope Walk, ' owned by a Mrs. Heathbrington. The. verdict of the inquest was, that he had 1 been murdered hy some person or persons unknown. The state i.i winch the body ■ was when discovered, furnished incomes tible evidence of a murder, which forpre . concert, deliberate turpitude, and diaboli cal hardihood, could find but few paral lels in the black catalogue of human but cheries. An entirely new axo, two large knives, and two buckets were I >yingon the floor near the body, from wldch the head, legs and arms had been severed: the two last at every joint, with a precision which , surgical skill could scarcely surpass. From an examination of the head, which with the bunds, and one of the arms, had been put into the fro and almost reduced to a cinder, it was evident that the deceas ed had been dispatched by a blow on the skull, given with the axe, the eye of which only was stained with blood One of the ■ buckets was used to catch the blood, and (he other, no doubt, to wash the limbs as they were taken off for it contained the feet, legs, and one arm, with a small quan tity of water, scarcely discolored, —The lineaments of the face were so destroyed by (he operation of the fire, that it \ya» nearly impossible to trace a resemblance to any thing human, and there can be lit tle doubt, that it was the first intention of the fiend who perpetrated this shocking deed, to consummate his purpose by des troying, as rapidly as the size of the fire would permit, every vestige of his vic tim; hut apprcln naive of detection, he left itis hellish work unfinished. An ordinary sized trunk was found in the house,, containing some genteel ap parel, a tew articles of jewelry, a silver watch, a pair cf pistols,some goldsmith’s tools, a masonic apron, sash, and a diplo ma issued at Baltimore in December last, and signed by tiie grand Master of Mary land. From the last named article, which doubtless was the property of the deceas ed, it, would appear that his name was PE TEK LAGAUDIJTi'F, and, fr mwnatwe have been e cabled to learn, that, that he was a peddung jeweller, who bad been in this place about three weeks, traficking in such wares. . Several articles of the clothing bore the imprint of bloody hands, doubtless made ■by the murderer-hi searching for that which it may bo p.esumcd impelled him to this woeful deed. No money of con sequence was in tiie trunk A handsome gold watch, we understand, was left in the room, the chain of which too was stained with blood. The following is the result of our in quiries among the neighboring residents. That the house was rented, about the Ist of the. present month hy three foreigners, of decent exterior, of whom they knew nothing further than that they were gen erally absent in the day, but presumed to sleep there, from a light being seen usu ally lute at night, in the upper rooms; that on yesterday morning about ten o’- clock, some children who were playing in an adjoining garden, heard the cry of nrrder ! issuing from the house, and in formed their parent, who supposing it to proceed from a servant under correction, did not immediately attend to it; that soon arier, however, a man behig seen in the lower room, walking up and down, appa rently under the influence of violent feel ings, they communicated the circumstance to Mr. Cherry, one of the police officers, who proceeded to the house about 2 o’- clock, and finding it fastened up closely, made forcible entry, when the shocking spectacle wc have described above was presented to him. No person but the deceased was in the house when Mr. Cherry entered; but, we 1 arn, that about 1 o'clock, a man, very neatly dressed, came out of the house, and looking the door, went into a negro* kitchen in an adjoining yard, lighted a segar, «nd desired an eld woman who staid there, if any one came, to say that hi had gone to dinner.—lie did not return. A Mayor’s Court was held last night tor the purpose of collecting information : respecting the case. We believe nothing < likely to allect the apprehension of the ' absconder or absconders, was obtained. ' Mii.cn 22.

' We have not even Irani a suggestion ,of the probable total value of property destroyed t and will therefore ouly soy, that it is such as rtiany years of the most productive labor would not repair, and that such is tin distress which it liasbrot’ • upon those whose means were humble, that it calls loudly upon the humane lor immediate relief. # March 23, In our ppper cf Wednesday, we gave an account of a murder ot a most unusual and horrific character, perpetrated on the hody of a man, whose name was (perhaps not incorrecilv) believed to t o LAGAUHE.T I'E• An active and energe tic investigation by our Police, of all the circumstances connected with this deed of darkness, that could be collected from earnest and unrernitted enquiry, aided by the exertions of some gentlemen in the vicinity, has resulted in the apprehension of two Spaniards, who call themselves MANUEL PHILIP GARCIA and ,IO SEPM GARCIA', suspected of being the murderers. They were yesterday examin ed before a Magistrate’s Court—and com mitted far further examination at n Court, to be held far the purpose, on Friday, 3tUh instant dime Beacon. William Anderson, a sketch of whose narative vve reprinted a few weeks since from a Norfolk paper, is now in Baltimore and intends publishing in detail his adven tures. We have no question says Paul Allen, that, when the volume of his travels appears, it will receive rn abundant pa tronage. He has travelled through regions but imperfectly known, and to which the attention of the word is directed He states one fact which in worthy of special notice; he declares, that the coffin of Ma. hornet is suspended iu the air between two loadstones Anderson states; in cor roboration of this fact, that he passed his sword above the coffin of the prophiet, and that he felt his sword attracted by the loadstone above; he then passed his sword under the coffin, and he felt the same at traction of his sword to the loadsthne be low, and at both times the coffin itself shook and trembled while suspended in mid air. He states other facts equally as tonishing, and, we understand, converses with fluency in the Arabic and Ilindostan languages He has returned to the home of his na tivity after a lapse of nineteen years, du ring which time ha was taken prisoner b\ (lie Arabs, in whose custody he remained for two years. He there experienced se veral hardships, privations and sufferings, from his cruel masters, and still bears on his body the markes of their vengeance. He was afterwards sold, and after various vissitudes, was appointed to a reputable command in the cavalry of Hindostan a gainst their British invaders. His life a bounds in perilous incidents; in “movitig accidents by food and feid" —which, con nected will; the customs, laws ana rites of that people, will form an interesting vol ume.

Before the duties of the committee commenced, the Esquimaux’* had been placed in the lioutKJ cf Charles T.

JV. Y. Com. .idv. Fcom tha Frigate Macedonian. On the 22d of February, It he schr. Philo, arrived here on Saturday from Smyrna, fell in with the ship Panther, capt. Austin, of Boston, from Callao bound to Gibraltar, who put on board George Harris, a sea man, to assist Capt Percival in navigating his vessel, and also, despatches from cant Downes, of the U. S. frigato Macedonian, for Government. From this searnau we learn that he left Callao, in the Panther, in the month of November last; and that the report of the massacre of a part of a boat’s crew of the Macedonian is correct. The following are given as the particulars Lord Cochrane entered the.harborof Cal lao, as already stated, in the month of Oc tober, and anchored just without gun-shot ot the forts. The following night he at tacked in the boats, captured, and succeed ed in bunging out a Spanisli frigate. This exasperated the Spaniards at Callao, who charged the crews of the Macedonian and the British frigate lltferiun, lying at a ,i eiior in the harbor, with aiding Lord C. .nth the means of carrying his attack into execut'on.
