t 1 Stent the Oar,in (G-) Gazette June I J.J
General Floyd has politely favored us with the
perusal of a letter recently received from Cary Sel
de», iisq. ol the city ol Washington, and has given
us permission to publish so much of it as he deems j
interesting to many of our readers. The following I
is an extract from the letter.
“ I lie delay which lias taken place in relation to !
these claims, has been extended beyond the ealeu- !
lation of any one, and has become very vexatious, i
It has arisen principally out of a difference of opin- '
ton between the two commissioners, as to the prin
ciples upon which, several points growing out of 1
the cases, as they have route up, should be disposed ,
— Flie lirst ol these was the subject of the are- !
t age value of the slaves, w hich after much ditlicul-'
ty and time was agreed upon. The next was the
charge lor interest upon the different claims which, !
all the agents, ps well as the American Commis- '
sioi.er (under the construction given by the Kmpc- !
ror ol Russia) contended tor, and 1 conceive con- j
sen ntiousjy and propeily too : lor the opinion as j
expressed by tiio idruperor of Russia, on reference
ol this article of the Treaty ol Ghent, is : “ That
the parties claiming, are entitled to full compensrl*
tiun arid indemnity lot all property taken and
carried away in contravention of said Treaty.”
&c.
1 he American Commissioner contends for this
construction (and I entirely agiee with him in
opinion) “ that full comjtensaiion and indemnity
means, that the party having a right 'o claim, shall
be paid by the other contracting party the full va
lue of the article at the time it was taken, with such
additional compensation as will be an equivalent
for the loss or deprivation of it, until it is paid for;
which equivalent or compensation, can be comput
ed by an award of interest only.
“ 1 he British Commissioner, on the other hand,
contends, that we have no right to claim inteiest
because there is nothing said about it cither in the
Treaty or convention, and if any such thing cun be
implied it was ceitamly merged in the ratio of
average value of the slaves.” Tifis is certainly
a narrow and illiberal construction. The Ameri
can Commissioner, at le. gtli trading argument of no
avail, proposed (he alternative, winch seemed to
every body, io provide lor such a contingency.—
lo wit : •* lliat when the Lommissioiiers should
differ about the construction ot any article of the
Treaty, or convention, that one of the arbitrators
should be drawn for to act as umpire in the case.”
io this proposition, winch seemed ho plain and
reasonable, ibe British Commissioner objected,
ulledgi..", that as nothing was said tn the i'icaly
about interest lie did not consider it a subject for re
ference, and iliat he could not consent to it. In
this slate ot thin-s, all further proceedings, before
the b ard, have been suspended ever since, and the
subjects, upon which the two commission*'- i_.
inhered, were teterred to oOr own Government,1
who forwarded the arguments and dicuastons, on
both side*, to our present Minister in England,
Mr. King, with instruction to endeavor to remove
by negotiation with the British Government, the
existing difficulties. As far as I can learn no
change has taken place by this reference, and it is
understood (hat the British Government has done
I nothing more than to authorize and instruct their
Minister here, to discuss die matter with our Go
vernment. 11 is believed that the negotiation has
already, or soon will be commenced Lett-.een the
Secretary ol State, (who was one of the Commis
sioners who made the Treaty) & Mr. Vaughan the
Br. Minister here. Although the subject ot interest
is one for which it is well worthy to contend, both
on account ol the amount which it involves as well
as the justice of the claim, I ainnot at all sanguine
of succeeding in it. It is all importin', however,
in proceeding to the settlement of tLese claims, that
the powers of the Commissioners should lx* defined
a..d expressed, so that, when they may differ about
any point growing out of the case.*, one of the
Commissioners shall not be able to de:eat the exe
cution of the commission by saying when a confer
ence is proposed, on a disputed point, that it is not
a subject lor reference.
The Commissioners are now in session, but they
will adjourn in a day or two, probably until next
winter, as there is no chance of their doing any
I thing until the subjects referrtd, as above, shall be
: finally disposed of. If I thought it would meet
the approbation of those whose interests in these
claims, I represent, and that it might not effect or
jeopardize the interests of other claimants, I would
come into a measure offered by the British C'ommis
i sioner, viz: To proceed to settle and determine the
validity of the claims, and to award compensation
for the principal, and let the charge tor inteicst be
a subject of future negotiation between the two
governments, with the express understanding that
the settlement and payment of the principal new
should in no manner Hereafter affect the right to
claim interest. This I could do, but 1 am afraid
to act without knowing whether or not I wou! J
accord with the wi-h*s of the claimants generally.
There are two other difficulties existing between
the commissioners winch are also to be disposed
j of by the £tme reierence, and which will probably
| occupy some time. The o..e is a* to the Territo
! rial jurisdiction over that part of Florida, whence
the slaves from Louisiana were taken after the
peace, principally, I believe, from Dauplnne I-l.mil.
The slaves from Louisiana tied to this part ol WkSt
Florida, and were taken from thence by the British
| forces after the ratification of tne Treaty. Mr.
| .Tackson contends •* that these slaves were out of
j the Territory and limits of the Untied States at the
j time, and that, therefore,dhc Treaty does not pro
vide for such cases. YVe consider it to have been
; at the time Spanish Territory and that the United
States had no right to exercise jurisdiction over it.”
The American Commissioner contends iliat this
portion oi West Florida, was embraced in the ces
sion 0/ Louisiana by France to the U. t>:a'cs and
that the U. S. had before,anti did at the time.exer
I cise sovereignty anti jurisdiction over it,and if ihere
I was any contest about the right to it, the conte-l
was between Spain ami France; it war guaranti
ed to us by France—we were in lui] pos e-sion anti
in the exciti-e of sovereignty over it, at tht* period
when the treaty of Ghent was concluded
Another point of difference is about laying before
the claimants, the documents relating to slaves and
other piopcrty, taken and carried away by the Bri
tish forces du’iug and af'er ihe war. which have
been transmitted to the Bfitish Commissioner here;
and whicii by the ith article of the 1 on vent ion the
British Government were required to furnish to aid
the parlies to establish their claims These docu
ments are supposed to contain a register or list, of
aii the properly which was taken away at the dif
ferent period-during and immediately after the war;
li they would no doubt, he very serviceable in dis
closing a great deni of important information anti
proof relative 10 the several claims, and they were
furnished as I suppose in good faitii of die stipulation?
of the Treaty, by the British Government for
that purpose, but to theeurp i*e of every ng»-nt and
claimant here, the British ( *ommi«sioner has refused
to lay it before the board as a document which
should be accessible to them, except under certain
restrictions.” We will permit the American Cnm
missioner to inspect it,hut will no? permit the claim
ants er iheir agents to do so, except as to the par
licular case which may be ready for examination,
lor any information which this document may ron
tain- M rtUle* to the panidtU»r case tcfore the
board, he may examine it in the presence of the
'wo Commissioners, but he is not permitted to ex
amine t|je document any fuither than relates to the
particular claim under consldera'ion.” Against this
course Mr. Cheves,our commissioner, protested &
refused to receive it at all, except as a document !
which was to be used, without such icstrictions,
by the parties interested lor the purpose of substan
tiating their claims These aie the principal points
ol didercnce and discussion between the Commis
sioners, and which arc now referred to the two Go
vernments to settle and deteituine. 1 hope they
may be speedily settled, and result in a favorable
issue to our countrymen; though I cannot but feel
a fear of a much longer protraction of a linal settle
ment of them, if not an unfavorable one.
I have been ilms prolix and paricul .r in giving
you, as far us 1 can, the history of the state of these
claims, and the prospect of their being brought to a
close, :.ot only tor your own government and in- !
formation, but ior that of yout bu n !s and neigh
bors who may be interested in them.

[ Erom the St. Louis Enquirer, of .Mat/ 27.] j
Last week we adverted to the extraordinary
l.ict, that orders hud emanated fioin the General ;
Government, commanding the purchasers of pub
lic lauds in the miucral district of this slate, to
'eturn all evidences of title to their farms; receive
jack then purchase money, without interest, and
surrender their Louies, with ell improvements, to '
Martin 1 lminas, agent of all tlie mines now claimed
by his majesty, John the Second, la to-day’s
paper, the reader will find a lull confirmation of
his majesty's order, ovei the signatures of the lie -
gister and Receiver, with a list ol the names oftiie
victims of the most unj aralleled oppression. We
will venture the asscriion, that an act so atbitrary
and palpably iniquitous, has never been attempted
to be practised by the most tyrannical govern,
incuts, upon peaceable and unoffending citl/.ens—
History affotds no example; and it has been left
for the administration of Piesident Adams, to a'
tempt to drive the farmers from their homes; to;
convert them from independent aud prosperous
agriculturalists to a dependant tenantry, subject to
the capricious will of some pe'ty informer, digni
lied with the title of Agent. We do not propose
to illustrate a self-evident truth; nor are we will
ir.g to predict the fatal consequences which must
inevitably follow the attempt, on the part of the
General Government, to execute'lie tyrant's will,
or to carry into effect, a mandate, so shamefully un
just, and “ ineffably stupid ”
me persons, rviiOHt* names r.re enunierated in
the list, having fill) faitJi in the justice and stability
of the government of the United States, purchased
their lands, paid the money, and have an absolute
title— of which, ‘.hey cannot be divested, but by a
dissolution of the power from whence the title;
'"r” '4*"*''*>J» “*■ *‘V law1*** faros. The dissolution ;
of the government, wo do not appiehend; and il l
force should come, it may, lawfully, and we veri-;
ly believe, will he resisted by force. Let uo on? ;
^tat tle at this; because it i» tlio point to which the
measure must come. The mandate is issued, nud
if the purchasers do not come forward ami peacea
bly surrender their propertv, the next step, must
be, to obtain it by cioil or military force. This,
we are fully petsuaded, is the oniy way left for !
the General Government to get possession of pro
perty, to which, it has no more right than it has to I
the Empire of China; and w hicli, wears assured!
by many of the purchasers, they never will, peace- j
ably, surrender. But, confiding, as they do, in ;
the purity, perfection and stability of their titles, j
derived from a government established upon the •
principles of justice, and the rights of man, they j
have resolved to wait, in indignant silence, the |
coming event; - and holding their property next to!
their lives and their liberty, they wwl not part with
it without a struggle.
President Adams msy refuse to issue h:3 pa
tents for public lands, fairly and hones'Jv pur
chased, and paid for under the laws of thel.tnd, and
it can have no other effect than to render him and
his advisers perfectly ridiculous and odious in the
eyes of the people. It is not a piece of sheep
skin, ornamented with the signature ot JohnQ.
Adams, which gives the title to the purchasei;
but, it is the patent certificate secures the right ol
property; protects the holder, in a court o! jus-1
t'tce, from every aperies of trespass, and w ill justi-!
fy him in the eyes of his country and his God, in
maintaining his possessions, forcibly, if he must.—
The saciifice sought to he made of a fe«v of our
fellow-citizens in the mineral district, cannot be j
viewed with cold indifference. Everv member ot
the community, who feels a regard fv>r his own
rights, must participate in the resentment of die i
injury. and join in one common execration of so '
flagrant an outrage upon the American ei izen. I;|
the General Government can, to-day, sell a piece !
of land, and at some subsequent period, upon tin
bare report of a hireling informer, drive riff the
individual and appropriate tlx? propertv, if you
p!en«e, to (he building of a “Skylight house,”
public confidence must vanish; justice mu*t !»•
.11 empty name; constitutional rights must l»p
tiampied under foor, nnd the people will be ruled
| Ly one despotic -wav. What evil genius could
have pron ped .Mr. Adams to take « step, rash,
i we cannot divine. Can it be, thit he is the dupe o!
his own agent ; or must v.e trace it to his repealed
1 arts of hostility to.vaids u*;— to his old prejudices,
| and a fixed opposition to the western country/
But i' is not so much of the motive, os the open
viola ion of our rights, of which eve complain, and
wh;rh the people of Missouri understand too well
to surrender at discretion.

MEXICO—In the Senate of Mexico, in the
month of April last, a bill was introduced, for the
suppression, virtually, of the lodges of Freemasons
tnroughout the Union, aa hostile to the established
religion. It was discussed and rejected. The par
ty in Mexico, anxious for the invasion and bide,
pendente of Cuba, are much dissatified with the
views of our Execu'ive on that subject; while those
view*, as opened in the Message of Mr. Adams oj»
the Panama .Mission, are received with exultation
!>v the adverse party. The Mexican Chamber of
Deputies has passed a bill for the vigorous excJit*
non of ail Spaniards, or Spanish subjects, from en
rancc into the port of the Kepublic. The General
Congress of Mexico have decreed—that all goods,
i>rodttriiona arid efiects, of National growth, or
nnnuf.ict'ire, which may be exported, shall be free
af duty, and neither shall tire Slates through which
they may pass, or the public authorities on the

HAY FI.—Since our last, says the Maine Ire

which lessen, tn no degree, the dark-colored pic-,

Gen. Magny, who commands in the North, lraa

and mulattoes. This patriotic chief, himself a

pcace and order—and zealous tor maintaining tliQ

in a moment of strong excitement, and forgerful of

sixtier that were exiiibited during the insurrection
ary war between Chrisiophe and Petion. I11 sudi

Islands, eighteen miles distant, who were left there
by an English skinner (formerly the Saucy Jack
privateer of Charleston) ten months before, \\ ith
but two days piovibious. When they cam*
board, they were dressed in the skins of seals, and
were ro comple-ely smoked-dried that it was im
possible to li'il what country or nation they were.
Dur.ng the ten months, they sulisisted upon the
Penguin and other large birds, which remain on the
shore* of those barren and inhospitable rocks, the
whole year, and kept themselves from freezing by
burning blubber o' the sea elephant, in the receaaep
of a rock which they had made their abode. They
were landed on the Island of Bourbon by tliQ
LtniJic, and u is Imped they have once more, exo

IMPORTANT DISCOVERY.
O, e ot the gieatCNi discoveries yet made in
navigation has transpired, and the patent has been
abandoned in consequence of the technicalities of
the l atent Laws. Three-fourths <.f the fu»l now
und in steam navigation will be saved. The va
pour of quicksilver is substituted for steam with
em.il tr machinery, and a few precautions to pre
vent any, wa-te ui the n.e al by a pipe on the safety
v*u 1 1 he bottom of the boiler, which is very
-m«li and strong, as compared with that now in
use foi [ roduemg ate .in, is conical, and the termina
tion of 'lie cone is in contact with the burning coals
which surround it. i heir heat is communicated
almost instantaneously to the quicksilver in the
boiler, throwing it into vapour, at the temperature
ol l« iti degrees of I"..hrenlicit. It* elasticity and
power can be indefinitely increased by heat, altd
the greater the e!n«iicity produced the greater the
vacuum in the cylinder on opening the valve com
municating wi h tin’ wed. The saving of stowage
w: lis very considerable, and a ton ol quicksilver
will he sufficient for propelling a ve-t*l to Indig
ana back again with 140 horse power.
Tiu Treaty—Mr. Forsyth and Col. Crowell
arrive i ill this city in the Stage, on Thursday last,
| lr«>in Washington, (.'ol. Crowell says, that it waa
| the decided opinion of both parties to the Creek
I.eaty, that liie J»»st extension ol the line*, a® fnea
tiont!d in the Supplemental Article, would embrace
all the Creek b.i.ils within the limits of Georgia—
j that that nrticlu was added to it for that purpose
.lone, and that he has not the slightest doubt of its
' accomplishing it that it is possible there may be
a very small quantity left out, but so small that it
' will not exceed the size of some plantations, ami
j that it depends entirely upon the decision of Gew
I gta and Alabama, in running the dividing line,
whether or not the whole will be included.
