SPANISH CABINET.
The appointment of two of the Spanish minis
ters is merely temporary; admiral Cisneros is the
only one whose nomination is definitive. He was
victor) of Buenos Ayres when the insurrection
took place there. M. Joseph Imaz, whose ap
pointment is only temporary, formerly held a
piace in the financial department, and has the
reputation of being an hon. st man. Marquis de
Caza d’Yrugo was, at different periods, minister
from Spain to the United States, and at Rio Ja
neiro. It is thought that he will remain in his
present office only till the return of the Spanish
minister, the duke of San Carlos. Report says,
that Pizarro had communicated a royal order for
the delivery of the Floridan to the Anglo-Ameri
cans, but that Me minister Onis prevented its be
ing carried into tffi ct , as it is further said he had
arranged the matter for a consideration equal to
three millions of dollars, and a compromise res
pecting claims due to the Americans.—Phila

TREATY WITH THE UNITED STATES.
London, October 23.
We yesterday announced the departure of the
American minister, Mr. Gallatin, for Paris.—
The result of his negociations with our ministers,
during his visit to London, has transpired. It is
understood that he has concluded a treaty with
the British commissioners, by which all die chief
points in negociation with the United States, were
happily and satisfactorily adjusted. The boun
dary which has been in dispute ever since the
treaty of the earl of Shelburne, is now accurate
ly fixed. An arrangemement has taken place as
to the American right of fishing on the shores of
Newfoundland. Provisions arc also agreed on
for the intercourse of the vesssels of the United
States, with the British West Indies. And the
oniy unsettled point is that of the right of visita
tion and seizure found on board of the ships of
either country during war. It it said that on this
point Mr. Galiatin was to refer the proposition
which had been made by the British commission
ers to his government. The treaty itself, we pre
sume, will not be mack public till the return of
advices from America, but report states that the
above is the substance.— Globe.

(O* Rotation of franchise?
Pursuit to a number of the citizens
of this Wnty convcnd, on the 4th instant, at the
court-houiie, for the purpose of voting for a repre
sentative tcAiill the vacancy occasioned by the election
of John Forsyth to the i^iate— but no election took place,
though the mu fist rates authorized to preside had taken their
seats, clerks bken appoints, and the candidates announ
ced. A*o vote receive M, though the peophthcere ready
to render in thei)’ suff'ra\s at the poll, and had evinced
no disposition, eWher by tvbw/t or insult, to interrupt the
justices in proceeding to thejbeifonuance of their duties!.'!
The county is, :i* it indignant at so flagrant
and unprecedented a \fclation of the birth-right of a
free people—a right on which depends the very exis
tence of the republic, personalliberty, and all that dis
tinguish the American citizen from the abject slave of
an Asiatic despot. spirits of republicans
will not submit to the usiwpation, and the public voice
demands that an explanation begivetfty the magistrates
implicated in the transgresion andntonement be made
to violated laws of our dfuntry.
On the 4th instant, the'Justices of the Inferior Court
of MHntosh county elected Mr. James Burnett clerk
of the Court of on the same day, appoint
ed Captain James PeeotUo take the returns of persons
entitled to draws in the present land lottery.
Messrs. Editors — last, the day pro
claimed bv our executi-Jrfa*tn election to fill the va
cancy occasioned,by tile elevation of Mr. Forsyth, I
have noticed a considerable excitement in the public
mind against one of our ifcagisfrates. Not being pre
sent on the occasion, and fiesirous of a faithful repre
sentation of faces, I beeJiAve, through the medium of
your paper, to ask the ■lowing Questions, viz.
1. Were the polls opfted in due form?
2. Did any individual Magistrate; object to opening?*
3. IVas there* a constitutional mupber of magistrates
present, indeplndent of*ie delinquent; and why did
they not proceed? *
4. What number of iJlters were; present, and did
they demand tint the poßi should be opened?
5. Was anylmdue used, by any individual
derogatory to |he right octree sufferage, and how was
that influence exerted? ■
6. Did this ■ldivi.iual aprt'ur control the magistrates
and people, flat they cdLld not unite in loud indigna
tion against tlfe usurpation?
The seventi and last question, Messrs, editors, not
relating to iattcr of fact, !>\t being rather casuistical,
1 beg the faxor of you to answer for the benefit of your
readers, vizi
Would itXiot be more aagnanimous, &> arrest on the
spot an illAa) proceeding, when in dA power, than
to permit lie consummation of the evilMvith the view
of afterwards enkindling an insidious flskie to destroy
the aggrlssor? ■CITIZEN.
An answer to the sewnth interrogator seems to be
almos* superfluous, as it w ill readily be admitted that to
prevent an error is muchMnore honorable and humane

Our fields are as barren as the sands of Arabia.—
Some of them have been in constant cultivation fora
century, and no improvement, but a dreadful decrease,
lias taken place in them. In fact a rich planter of our
county cannot clear eight per centum on his capital
stock, and a poor one cannot make money enough to
buy two calico frocks for the old woman, and furnish
bread for his family besides.
If there ever was a strange infatuation, it is your be
ing so excessively fond of remaining where you know
you will poor while you do live, and where you live a
living death. If there were no country to which you
might migrate with ease, it would be some palliation to
your conduct; but when large, extensive and fertile
countries present themselves to you, iflering the great
est benefits in the world, I am dumb and cannot ex
press my wonder. Awake, oh! you that sleep; gather
your flocks, and drive them to the delightful meadows
that lie on the banks of the majestic Alabama. There
health, plenty and all the blessings winch man is in
search of may be found. Carry your chmrhes, your
academies, and pastors with you, then shall the desert
blossom as the rose and the solitary places shall be
glad. Be bold in the attempt, anil the work is half
completed. I am your friend.
