Daily Jldo. reputation of the City.—From E. Frost, esq. the gentleman who has with remarka ble diligence and accuracy taken tire census of the tenth Ward, we learn that the num ber ot inhabitants in that section of the ci ty is no less than 16,662. In 1815, it was a little ovei 10,800—increase in four years. 5,800. The sixth ward, taken by colonel . Collin,is supposed to contain nearly 20,000. The lower wards, however, have not in- ,Creased so rapidly. Otherwise the whole city would be. found to contain a popula- /ot ISO or 160.000. Whereas, our highest estimate, which may nevertheless fall short has never exceeded 185,000. Vet the aug mentation will disappoint if uot astonish the public.

On the subject of the trraty with Spain, Niles’ Register, of the 7til inst. contains- the following observations:— “It is understood, thatDon Onis, who so suddenly left our country, after the treaty Was concluded, will succeed the Marquis de Unza Yi uju, as a prime minister to Fer dinand. “If Unis thus succeeds Ynijo, and the treaty is not ratified within the period ol its limitation, width expires about tlie24lli of this mouth, the act can hear only one- construction—that of a deliberate design to heap insult on injury and the courseol pro ceeding which we ought to follow will be clearly indicated—which is to redress our selves if we can. And,if the British min isters,alter their explicit avowal in parlia ment, that they had no right to inttrlcie in the matter hactinUrfcrcd, we may cone! utU thatthey also nave resolved to take part with Spain, if a controversy should arise on ac count of her misconduct to the ,U. States. We are ve.-y unwilling to believe thatqilher efthese thingseanhappan-fhey would show a want ol common honesty in the govern ments of Spain and Great Britain, that the world would blush to witness, We think that the treaty will yet be ratified us soon as time is allowed for Spanish dignity to di. business—but in any event, we trust there will not be any further negociation on the subject.

They were cheered by .no such animating spectacle- all before their eyes was cloud; and dark ness, and Storm. We mention, this fatt not for the purpose of idle declamation, but as evidence' that our countrymen should not despond under the pressure of temporary difficulties.— What for example have weto coutendwith now, in comparison with what our ancea tors had. We feel -commercial distress and the wantofa circulating medium:— they beheld •towns iu flames—their coun try men butchered by the swonl of a proud and haughty foe—penury, want and famine in their most hideous forms—and is it for us to despond—the sons of those sires that could loo* such apalling calamities in the face!—no, the time will shortly arrive, and at no distant period, when we shall he astonished attne despondency that we uow sutler. When we have by means so evi dently providential been preserved, can we believe that we are tio longer objects ot providential superintendence. It is ingra tirade, and the grossest ingratitude to the Being from whom we have received such multiplied mercies to doubt his protection now. Let those who despond, look at the declaration of our independence,and blush at their own unworthiness— blush that tney should even dream of dejection, and com plain of the hardness ol me times, whet those very evils under which they at pusil'anitnously repining have in a grout measure been occasioned by their own eon duct.—We are suffering trie consequente of ouroivn folly, and we complain as il w lud been visited by famiuc or by pesti lence. . While on the declaration of Jntlepend ence, we would suggest it as a matter wor thy of consideration, whether it ought not to be a subject of school exercise. The principles ot our government cannot be too early impressed on the minds of the rising race, if we wish to ensure permanence to our republic. Impressions made in earls youth are the most vivid and indelible, l’l surely cannut be unworthy ot those to whom the destines of our beloved country are hereafter to be committed, to inherit from early infancy a reverence for the Irte institutions of their ancestors. ifitigiish history is olten taught in our schools wliilt American history is forgotten. Many pro jects have been proposed for the purpuse of forming anational character,.decidedly and exetusively American—but we have considered them for the most part as vis ionary and impracticable. But it does ap pear to us, that no plan fur the accomplish ment of so desirable an object, abounds with so many advantages as the present,— Che children of republicans should he taught in tlieir schools, wiiat republicanism is—short and simple elementary treaiises might easily be compiled, in which the superior advantages of our own form of go vernment, might be illustrated in a plain and familiar manner to the minds id the rising race.

Compare this fuel with another, that the emperor of Austria has recently dined on board of an American ship of war, and tu what bewildering sensations does it lead; what an advance ot uatioual great ness in the short period of forty-three years. During that term nf time this na tion has shew n to the world the only exam ple of a republic remaining o:i the surface nf the globe un which we tread. King, and emperors have bowed in homage to the American character, and fiveol those who watched over the cradle of the young Her cules, are still living witnesses of the fact! And is there a heart so cold and so. dead, that does nut throb with anxiety for the pieservalinn of a republic, whose early auspices have been so glorious and so res- plcudent.

The circumstances, (>ays the Raleigh Register) attending the heath of this unfortunate young man, were so singularly inelanchoily, and awful, as to merit particular regard. He with his fam ily, consisting of bis wile and two small children, had „n that day attended the fu neral sermon of his brothei-in-law, Mr. B. YVhitbev. Alter preaching, he invited, with bis usual cordiality, some of his friends to accompany him home, hut u( length retired .attended only by his wife and children.

Mr. Ruthbona, late army con tractor, has just returned from Greco Bay,' by .land and passed through the villages'of the greater part nf the Indians in that*re mote quarter; he.represents the most sav age nations, (the* Wipebagoei. Sacks, and Menominieg,) as totally unprepared for i», being nearly destitue of power and lead. Mr. R. ascended the Fox river a few miles with the 5th regiment, ami informs us that colonel Leavenworth called a council with the Winebaguesand Menominiep, and told them his object in passing through tSfeir country, to which they made not the least objection, but professed their friendship for the Americans in the strongest language, and ottered every means iu their power to aid the troops in ascending the river—the colonel accepted the service of about a dozen, as pilots and guides. Mr. R. rep resents the Pottxwattamies, Chippawas, Ottaways and Kickapoos, a part of whose country he passed through, as very friend ly disposed towards the United States. We have the pleasure of announcing to the inhabitants of the territory, that the honorable Wm. Woodbridge, and the hon orable A. B. Woodward, are held in con templation for the oflice of delegate to congress at the election in September next. General Brownandsuite arrived here last Monday night, between the hours of 11 and 12 o’clock, in the scliooner Tiger, from Green-Bay. This vessel left Green Bay at 10 o’clock p. m. on Thursday, the Stli nst. and stopped 21 hours at Mackinac.— i his is perhaps, tiie quickest passage ever made from Green Bay to this place. The distauce is said to be about 700 miles. General Brown and suite, arrived yester- lay, m the steam boat Walk-iu-the-ivater for Buffalo. We learn that gen.

Snns JVeif, a chief, and one of the prin cipal counsellors of the Great Osage tribe, arrived here a few days ago on an embassy Horn his nation to the President, to lay be fore liis excellency, on his arrival here, the difficulties which'at present exist ue- tween them and the government, and it officers, etc. etc. Missouri Expedition.—This expedition has not yet sailed, but is daily txpccted to prorced. On Sunday the steam boats Johnson and Expedition proceeded, from the mouth ot Missouri .to Belle Fontaine in about two hours, and stemmed the cur rent with great ease. Last week, col. Henry Atkinson, on seeing the ferry-boats worked by wheels, immediately conceived the idea of apply ing them to the barges, bound up the Mis souri with United States’ troops, stores, etc. In about three days he bad one ol the barges rigged with wheels, anil a trial made in which she was run up the Missou , about two miles and back, iu 30 min utes. It is highly gratifying that the govern ment has placed this prompt, decisive, and distinguisned officer in the command of simportant station. This improvement which he has put on these baiges will prove ol vast importance to the government, both a expedition anil saving expense. 'Avt.J.

THE ALABAMA COXVEXTJOX. Huntsville, July 3. It will be seen, by a reference to tiw proceedings nf the convention yesterday, that a doubt exisfi in that body on the ex pediency of accepting the propositions made to the people of tnis territory, con tained in the 6th seition of the act, nf cun. grtss, authorising them to form a constitu tion anil state govprument. From the hasty view which ive have been able to take of this subject, vve are inclined to the opinion that the ordinance of congress of 1737, taken together with the articles of cession and agreement between the state? of Georgia and the United States, entered into on the 14th April, 1802. puts it out of the power iff this convention to form a con stitution of state government which would tie accepted by congress, without recogni zing the tit'e of the U.
