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 delphia Gazette. 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. November 1. A REVOLUTIONARY EXPEDITION. It is understood that sir Gregor MacGregor’s expedition will receive a considerable accession ol force from continental volunteers. He has chartered ten transports. It rumored that they will rendezvous at Oid Providence, off the Mus quito shore, where commodore Aury has aiiea dy made a lodgment; and thence, tliat si: G. will diiect his future movimtiitsjAcording to cir cumstances, so as either to ufrcn a direct com munication with the indepuprflents interior ol New-Grenada, or an nHftrtant di- Ti ision in their Ending of Darien.

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.

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. Liberty county, Ga. BILL LEGGINS. Mr. V. H, Viviov is not a candidate for alderman., WHOLESALE PRICES CURRENT. Darien, January 11, 1819.
