From a vat rely of circumstances our attention
-V Is, irresistibly drawn to the affairs of Florida,
f Things in that quarter are'beginning to assume
an interesting aspect* Tietters received in town
confidently assert, that a number of troops
from the British West-Indies, are now on their
Wayto reinforce Pensocola, Mobile aod-Augus-
tlnc. The, Spanish commandant atSt. Marks
has been endeavoring to stir up the Indians
against us, and every exertion is making by
governor Kindertand to excite disaffection
among cur slaves. It is high time that the eyes
Of the people were opened to their situation.
Under, existing circumstances, the reduction of
Augustine, as We have before repeatedly stated,
is essential to our safety. According to itssize,
it is equal in strength to any place on the conti
nent. It is situated on a plain oi several miles
ip extent, and mounts ts ai each angle twelve:
lhIriy : two pounder’s. . The best informed men
are of opinion that 10,000 troops would be in
sufficient to reduce is, if -proper ly garrisoned.
Suffer it to-be reiufoiced and it will bid us de
fiance. Vigr rjiis efforts should ihciefore
- be immediately made to obtain its possession.
Prbtnptness is uil important, government having
turned a deal ear to - cur calls far assistance, we
ought-to look to ourselves for protection. The
energies of this state must be exerted to ward
off the blow wldfet impends over us, be the con-
seoyences tvb^^rey. may;

General Baliasteros had evacuated Malaga,
and retired to the mountains, where he had
saken Osauna, with a French garrison. The
French general who had been before Gibraltar,
had marched against a id fought him. There
was ho official account of the battle ; some re
ports gave the victory to. the Spaniards, and
some to the French. V '
The grand expedition from Minorca was
said to be destined against Tortota. The:
frfench general Suchet was iickA'
: The number of Spaniards in arms through
out their country, including the peasantry and
guerrillas, was estimated to constitute, toge

At lyjalaga, the Trench had imprisoned the
American consul, Mr. Kirkpatrick, and Mr-

Transports, with 2500 troops, destined to.
Vera Cruz, sailed from Cadiz, August 1,
These troops are intended to act against.those

The. report of war 'between America and

Provisions Were tolerably plenty at Cadiz.

_ Gen. Cook is the commander at Cadiz. -The
French throw shels daily, but with little effect.
There had been a mutiny among the seamen
on bohrd the French fleet at Toulon,'which wds
attributed to the Italian sailors. It seems they
intended' to carry eff seine jot the ships. One
ship of the line was lost inconsequence oi the
disturbance, and 4 or 5CiO seamen escaped tathe
English. Since then, the ships at Toulon have
been dismantled. "
The Dcy of Algiers Was offended with the
United States for the delay of his supplies, the
present season and it was said an American
armed schooner had fired into an Algerine ves
sel—as satisfaction for which the Dey had de
manded 100:000 dollars of Mr. Lear. It was
feared hostilities would be resorted to. The
supplies had sailed' from America, put back
once, and sailed agaio. Since 'which we have
not be$rd of them, but presume they arrived
after a long passage.
Pittsburg, September 17;
Pennsylvania Volunteers.—Since the publi
cation of the lost “ Mercury,” this borough has
by daily arrival of volunteer »:orps, amounting
to between 1000 and 1200 men, exhibited a
spectacle cheering to the heart of every patri
otic American. As Pennsylvanians, we .feel
proud to see so respectable a body of men, vo
luntarily yielding to tbe.calls of their country
in the hour of danger; exchanging the com
forts aud endearments of private life, for the
honors and hardships of the “ tented field.”—
The general appearance oi all the cot ps is be-
in human bosem. Peace to his ashes—may his
