When matters have been thusadj uted there can be no sufficient reason for any farther procrastination, than what rr ay be barely necessary for a deliberate exair-in-tioo of its previous to its ft ial execution by *he kin^; which, it i* natural to suppose, would not take ip more time, after it was fotmally submitted, U^n two or three attentive readings, and, a tew clays to boot, to make up iheir minds on any pro visions embraced in the arrangement of the boun dary line, which by the by, is tntir best pail ot the bargain; care having bet n taken to secure that Valuable pi*.'ion of territor bordering on the »uif of ivleaico, that hu* already caused s» much uneasiness to hi9 catholic majesty, and afforded such convenient shelter to the “Insurgents/* (be ween the river Sabine and Del Norte.) This s no doubt a material point gained, and one igready contributed to induce the Don to close the business with us so promptly. The Multona mah, and rocky mountains on the interior buun daries, are of co consequence, compared to mari time security iu a quarter where such frequent and formidable annoyance may be dreaded. The vicinity of Cuba, exposed to the contamina* lion of our principles can then form a indingob jection; but as this cannot pcuibly be obviated under existing circumstances, that part of the bargain must remain as it is, unless some ‘ fever ish .-.hock** of nature should accommodate his majesty, by placing ua at a more respectful dis lance. On the whr.Ie, there can be little doubt but lha» Ferdinand will freely part with the Florida^ rather than risk hostilities with us, that might accelerate the loss of much more valuable possessions, in our vicinity, which are the very pillars that sustain i-.is tottering throne lie »viil nu doubt act pru dentiy towards us, not from choice but from ne cc»sity.—Washington City Guz. 24th uU.
