UNITED STATES. [Frwm the Char{ttfom Courier.]

GOVERNOR JACKSON.—No. 3. e are not aware of any inducement which

could exist, iu this country^ to question the jurisdiction of the. Cortes over Florida, when it is universally believed, that to the influence and control ot that enlightened body we arc

j indebted for the ratification of tile treaty, and ! die peaceable possession of Florida itself. Why deny the authority that awarded us justice ? Some portion of powcrcannot well be denied them by Governor Jackson. Cuba never hav- ing been ceded, and the Cortes having rcstrain- ed the powers of Captain General of Cuba,

[ previous to Governor Jackson’s appointment, I powers which he claims under the Presi- dent’s commission, belonging heretofore to the Captain General and lutcndaut of Cuba, must descend to him with these restrictions. Ob- serve how this conclusion is resisted : In the

ratification,' says Gov. Jackson in li'rs decree, Ferdinand I'll, by the consent and authority

1 °f the General Cortes of the ,\'ation, declared that the ratification should be as valid and

'firm, and produce the same effects, a3 ifit had 1 been done within the determined period, viz. 4 the time prescribed by the lTtli article.’- 4 Tins, of itself, is sufficient to ex- 4 clude tiil4 idea that the Constitution of 4 /Ac Cortes is of force in* this country

Now this assertion of .Ferdinand can only be regarded as an apology to the U. States for the delay, an entry 4 nunc pro tunc,’ to use the vulgar Latin of an attorney, and meant only that it should be as obligatory on Spain as if ratified before. But why dot s Gov. Jackson rely on the decree of Ferdinand in 1820,when he Jins expressly denied him all authority af- ter 1810 ? Why in order to support his doc- trine, that,as the Cortes had no power in 1810, this identification of the subsequent with the preceding year, should deprive them of all control over the gubernatorial powers in Flori- da. A\e find too, much to our surprise, that he speaks of the authority of the Cortes in confirming the ratification of the treaty in 1820, and, in the very next sentence, says— 4 this is sufficient to exclude the idea, that the Constitution of the Cortes is of force in this w'li.iij. ism n reasoning, unless 11 anstvers

itself, cannot be answered. All the acts of rite Spanish government show

l hat they exercised exclusive sovereignty over Florida up to the moment of the cession to the Americans, July 10, 1821. More than a year previous, the new Constitution of Spain was adopted, and the Cortes exercised an impor- tant share in the government of tin*, nation.— ^he Cortes had, therefore, dominion over t lorida in the same degree as any other pari of Spain. Nor can we suppose cither Con- gress or the President to have entertained, much less expressed any doubt upon the sub- ject. Tbe act of Congress speaks of the dis- tribution of powers exercised by the officers of the erialmg' government—not the govern- ment in 18ID—not a former government, but tbe government in 1821. The President gives Governor Jackson the powers * heretofore'cx- t reised hy the Captain General and Intcndant ot Cuba, Governor of Florida, &:c. restricted hy the law, his instructions, &c.

Now the term heretofore,’ in common un- derstanding, would include the period immedi- ately anterior to March 10, 1521, the date of the President’s commission. But, according to the decree of Governor Jackson at Pensa- cola, heretofore1 means only the period anteri- or to I1 eh. 22, 181!) !-With equal propriety may any other aliquot portion of time be. sc- lectcd to deHignate and control the intentions ot flic Prebident. Hut as there is no ambiguity m his language, we v^illjUJJLsicU.lo embarrass his meaning, more especially in 'order to attri- bute to him what we do not believe that lit* ever intended. We say that lie did not intend to entrust the judicial power to Gov. Jackson : because his commission conveys no such au- thority, and is altogether silent on the subject; because such an intention cannot fairly hi: im- plied, either from what is said, or what is o-

mitled, in the commission ; because judicial authority, in a free, country, can never arise oul of implication only; because implication avails nothing in opposition to contrary and express facts : consequently, the judicial power can- not he claimed itife rcntially l>v Gov. Jackson, w hen it is expressly, by tile Persulent, confid- cd to Judge b rnmentit) ; because the union of the judicial and executive powers is an anom- aly in our politics ; berause it. is a wrong and dangeious combination, as Gov. Jackson ar-

knowledge*—and we are, therefore, in the ab- sence of Jill evidence to the contrary, unwar- ranted in the belief, that the President intend- ed it. Hut the President’s commission rest- for its basis on the act of Congress, a brief iu-

iticc of which will inevitably lead to Ike same .result.

i _ JUOMMU*JICATIO>\ talia lege ado, temperit a risu 7 However grieved and humbled we may feel

at the conduct of one of our highest officers towards Gov. Callnva and Judge Frmnentin, it will he impossible to read Gen. Jackson’s proclamation condemning to banishment four or five Spanish officers under the pretext, that they were « purt of the Spanish fortes which Spjiin agreed to withdraw from the Florida*, without u strong disposition to hughlcr. That a man of the undoubted bravery of General Jackson, surrounded by jin A mericjtii garrison ot f»00 men, should seriously have felt flint his power or the safety of the province wjt3 en- dangered by the presence ola few friends of (im. C .iIIjiia, with side Jirms-and pistols, can- not he seriously admitted. That in a time of profound pean, either the President or his subordinate officer, without an express act of Congress, possesses the right to order out oj 1 ,,ur territory any olliee.r in foreign service, is ji

point we are yet to learn. The pretext wa* absurd, that they were a part of (hut force

; width Spain had agreed to withdraw, and thf ridicule attached to the suggestion will be Celt

• if Wt- could suppose, that on the arrival of tlies* officers, or of Gov. Coppiugcr, in Charleston 3.C.; the Governor of that State had issurt

'• hi* proclamation, ordering them to leave tin , United States in three days, on the groom that they were a part of thr troops which Spah ’’ htid agreed to withdraw. J" No—aft this is a piece of mummery, whirl > every man of common scn>n*, understands.-

General Jackson, in a passion, committed a *r ,cl of ttujiwtiftjilile violence.—When Col. Cal v. lava and his officers, simply and very dispas sionalely availed themselves of tlw freedom r

the American presai to lay their "rievanr w b«

fore the American people, the consciousness of his violence made him outrageous,and lie des- cended to the laughable expedient of banish- ing these dangerous men, who had the inso- lencb to appeal to the sense of honor ami jus- tice of the people of the U. States.

That the General did not consider their resi- dence as a violation of the treaty, is proved by the fact that he had for months suifered them to remain there, and to partake of the hospitality of his uicn officers.

The only other ground of such a perempto- ry order was, that they were encouraging dis- affection, and particularly l>y publishing their view of the wrongs winch their nation had sustained- These two grounds should be carifully kejit distinct. If the residence of the aides-de-camp of Col. Callava was such a vio- lation of the treaty as to authorize Gen. Jack-

I 'son forcibly to remove them, it is one thins?— hut it is with submission a' ci v ridiculous pre- tence.

But if as strangers, in profound peace, they had as much right to reside here as any Brit- ish or French officer in service, then we are au- thorized to inquire what authority exists in the United States to banish from our country, without trial, any officers in Weigu service ?

If they were -stirring up sedition, of w liich no fruits have yet appeared, or if their state- ment of facts contained in Jackson’s procla- mation is a libel, then like all other men en-

joying our protection, they were entitled to a

friefand could not lawfully lie lemoved, till convicted—nor even then in time of peace.

Congress ion An Elections.—John Find- lay has been elected a member of the Seven- teenth Congress, from one of the districts of Pennsylvania, by a majority of G7» votes over

[Mr. M’Culloh, the late member; but, by a

singular mistake of the judges of election in Cumberland, who, in their {official report, sta- led Mr. F’s poll in that county tube fourteen instead offourteen hundred, Mr. M’Culloh will he returned as elected. That gentleman, how- ever, it is stated, will not attempt to take his seat, and the erroneous return w ill, no doubt, be promptly set aside by the House of He- preservatives.

I Col. David Chambers is elected a member of! I 17th Congoi'SSj'fioin the lilt district of O- ; h'o, by a large majority over bis opponent,

made, without effect, to electa member oft Congress for the second district of the state of i Vermont, now. vacant. In that state, as in most of the eastern states, a majority of the | whole number of votes at all elections is ne-

cessary to make an election. [.%«/. Jut. Fortifications.—A late Louisiana Advertiser

contains a letter, under date of September 10th,from its correspondent at Washington

i city, which, amongst nth information, gives j a report, that the public works at Point Com-1

fort had ben entirely demolished, and the 4i loss is estimated at dOO 000 dollars.” This i3 very incorrect. W e arc happy to state, that tlie loss sustained by the import ml works on the Chesapeake, at Old Point Comfort and the Rip Raps, hy the hurricane of the dd of September, was very trilling indeed. These w orks stood the sea with perfect firmness, and nothing more than a few slight sheds were thrown down. We are also glad to he able to state, that the works erecting outlie Gulf of Mexiwo sitifered but little damage from tin* vi- olent gale which occurred iu that quarter on

; the 16th of September. Interior Communication.—It is stated iu the

! Wheeling Gazette that six hundred teutons

I have arrived at that place alone, in the last six mouths, from the Atlantic country, loaded with merchandize, &tc. for our western fel-

[ low-citizens. This fact places ia a strong light theiin-

i incuse utility which would flow from uniting [thewaters of the Potomac, hy a canal and short turnpike, with those of the Ohio. Tin- ease with which this great work could In* ac-

complished has been demonstrated hy prac- tical men. It lias been demonstrated, also, with arithmetical truth, that the expense of the work would in ten years, be reimbursed bv the mere saving on fuel, (exclusive of other pro- ducts,) which would he brought doirn the ca- nal to this District, not reckoning the supplies which would he consumed in other places on th waters of the Chesapeake.

know of any so worthy the attention of money- ed men—hut to the patriot ami philanthropist it presents considerations of still higher inte-! rest. For ourselves, we cannot conteinplat* without emotion, even through the vista of ma-

ny years, an improvement, which will, by an

easy communication, bring the now widely se-

parated parts of our country together, and, as it were, level the great mountains them- selves, which seemed to interpose an eternal barrier between the east and the west. Will not some statesman he found, to <‘arn for him- self n lusting hanor, by putting his shoulder manfully to the wheel in this great work, and persevering in it to the end. ? [/b.

STEAM BOAT CASE. The public, have been often apprised of tlw

controversy between the proprietors of the steam boat company, under the grant to Liv- ingston and Fulton, to navigate the waters of the Hudson, and Mr, Gibbons of New Jersey ; the owner of tile steam-boat liellona, which has been running between this citv and New Brunswick until stopped during the late sum-

mer, by an injunction from the chnnn llor. It is allrdged that Mr. Gibbons, being determin- ed to run his boat, had recourse to various methods to evade the laws of this state. Hav- ing been foiled, as is said, in these attempts, his nest resort was to cause Ins boat to ply from New Brunswick to Panics' Hook, which practice he has pursued since July last. In consequence of this Mr. John K. Livingston, t of this city, broughta suit against W.B. Jaques, as agent for the proprietors of the union line,

I j the passengers in which line he procures by keeping an office in this city, and conveying them across the North River by steam ferry

, boats, free ofe xpcnse,ar,d placing them on boart the Bellona, laying at Paules’ Hook by whirl

1 boat they arc conveyed to New Brunswick The above suit catno on before Mr. Justin Swantorifin the, marine court, yesterday, Mr.

f Anthon for the plaintiff, and M<"io-« f’lv uni l Jones for ft«< «1cfe»'darn

The plea ofthe plaintiff was, that th*> Itel- Iona was infringing (its right by using thowa tors of the stale of New York inasmuch as the Bcilnna, while lying at Paules’ Hook, and du- ring her passage to the Karitou, is within trie jurisdiction of New York, and therefore, « uli- t!ed to damages.

On the part of the defendant, it was main- tained that the right granted to tho plaintiff could not debar a citizen of New Jersey from navigating a steam boat between two places ia that state ; and also, that the Belinda did not, use the waters of the stale of New York, on- ly as a highway, while passing from one poll to another in the state of New Jersey, while lying at the wharf at Paules’ Hook, the ques- tion not liming beeu fully decided between the two states.

After hearing witnesses and various argn- ments from both sides,the opinion of the chan- cellor and the court of enors, for about five hours,tiie cause was committed totliejuiy by the judge, stating the extent of the jurisdiction of that court, viz. glOO, &lc. The jury after being out about two hours, the court having adjourned until next day, scaled their verdict and came into court this morning ; and on Le- heing opened, was found to aw ard the plain- tiff one cent damages.

SHANAWASKAN. The story of this young Indian h is under-

gone both legal and philosophical investigation and proves full of interest. Nature has cruel!' sported with his limbs, and entirely depriv ed him ot the use of his lower extremities ; bui lias made him amends in the conformation of those parts which are the seat of sentiment and understanding. His bust is uncommon! v

line, and though not twenty years old, his countenance is expressive of thought and dig- nity. lie is an hereditary chief of the Saal: nation, and connected with chiefs of the Me- oomiiiies. He lias five bisters, all handsome persons, and well formed. His father was killed in warfare, and he has now an uncle elm i of two large villages.

He came to visit the great nation, to seeits father and counsellor, and to witness the ef- fects ot power and civilization upon men's lives and manners, not doubting of that hos- pitality which the Jiigknives had always ex- perienced from his nation.

On quitting Detroit, where he hud resided some time, lie brought a letter from Major General Macomb to Doctor Mitcliill.

'1 lie expectation of this poor stranger were not happily confirmed, lie and his conduc- tor, Captain John Pearson, Were, for the sake ot subsistence, reduced to the extremity of shewing him as a monster, in contiguity with an exhibition of monkies, parrots and ser- pents; and some persons, practising upon hi t

feelings, had possessed him with the idea that the great mttlicinc men, who vvu**» to look at him, intended to dissect or emhalni him for their curiosity, and that, instead of seeing the great father at Washington, he would he cruelly put to death ; and, conceiving that his guide must he of the plot, and understiyiding that he wrote in blood, perhaps red ink, ho became alarmed and discontented. He, some time ago, produced a paper containing an «*i- trealy tor pity and protection, and that h'r« case might lie made known to the magistrates of the country. Home persons having sug- gested this to the Recorder of this city, (the THjvioniDif*. wicuaru Kik^r) tie requested Mr. Sampson to assist him in investigating the truth ; anil, upon a return to a Uuheus Corpus and the production of the Indian by Captain hcarson, a strict scrutiny took place. He was at first able, by a knowledge, (though im- perfect; of the French language, to make his tents anti wishes distinctly known : hut after- wards conversed very freely, in tile Chippuwa tongue, with Mr. Schieffelin, funner agent of Indian affairs for the U. S. at Detroit. Pie earnestly entreated to lie delivered from lit* custody of Captain Fearson, and suffered to

; go with a young man who lived in the house where he was shewn ; mid the Recorder, after

i swearing both Mr. Sampson and .Air. Sehief- i felin ns in their interpretation, and with the i precaution of a recognizance for his forthcom

ing the next morning, let him follow his choice. Next morning, lie stated that he had cross-

ed a river ; hut being covered over, lie could | not describe the way lie had gone. lie had

been shewn for money, none of w hich he had reci ived ; hut had paid something for the ex- penses. He was now entirely weaned from liis new conductor, and has become fi cou- ched to his former guardian ; and whvn ralli- ed upon his fears, he expressed hiinselfto this effect :

“ I tun a stranger, and alone and dish-virt- eneil. Your hearts are strong, and witlrvut fear ; mine is as a child’s, i cannot disc« vn what is true or what is right. My father's heart (meaning the Judge) is Strong ; and he understands what is fit, and will do for mo what is bi st, and take care for me. You have kissed the great bm k of the. Great Spirit. I know and fear the Great Sp rit, though I am an Indian; and have no doubt now that you wit! do vvlmt is right by me.”
