The late period at which the eastern mail arrived, has precluded the insertion of a number of interesting articles, both foreign and domes
tic. Our readers must, therefore, excuse us if
the contents of this number be found stale and out of date : we can't make bricks without straw; or, in other words, print without copy if we could, we should have anticipated our papers, r.od sent this number forth teeming" with the latest intelligence. But alas! we are not gifted in that way, the mail must be our clarion, tho' a most miserable one it is, as things are now managed. .

We learn from the National Intelligencer, of
the 16th ult. that the nomination of two Ministers to the Congress of Panama has been confirmed by the Senate. Richard C. Anderson & John Sergeant have been appoinTed by the President, with the consent ot the Senate, Ministers to the Congress tf Panama. 1 bus has a question ter-
mated, which has been the subject of discussion
in the Senate for some time and caused consid-
erable excitement. Fears were entertamed that
the interferance of the United States in the af
fairs of South .America, would be likely to ex cite the jealousy of the sovereigns of Europe, and eventually be the cause of a rupture. Such a view of the subject presupposed more than was the real object of the mission, and more than could reasonably be anticipated. The crowned heads of Europe are not so irascible as to take the field
and wage war for such a trivial cause; experience
has taught them, that to fight against the liberties of man, is to contend against power. But, admitting this view as correct for a moment,
would the government have shrunk from a duty she owed to herself and humanity at the pleasure of a despot? We presume she would not. Go
vernments, like men, have characters to support; that of probity, firmness, and justice, and no human law or power should cause those principles
to be compromised.,
CONDITION OF THE FLORIDA INDIANS-
To the Senate and House of Representatives
of the United states : Washington, 1st March, 182G. I communicate to Congress a letter from the Secretary of VVar, together
w ith a representation from Col. Brooke,
relating to the present condition of the Indians in Florida, and which I recom
mend to the favorable consideration of
Congress.
JOHN QUINCY ADAMS.
Department of War, Feb, 14, 182G. Sir: I have the honor to enclose, herewith, an extract of a letter from Col. Brooke, of Florida, to Col. Gibson, of this City, on the present sutfering condition of the Florida Indians. The correspondence with the Department for
some time past, confirms the truth of
Colonel Brooke s statement, and it was inconsequence of those representations that partial relief was authorized by you from the contingencies of the Indian Department. Being convinced that the country to which those Indians have emigrated is not suited, either in soil or salubrity, to their preservation, instructions were, some weeks ago, forwarded
to Governor Duval to ascertain their dispositions in regard to a removal to
lands West of the Mississippi. It is hoped they may accede to the poposition.
Meanwhile, however, humanity demands
that they should be kept from starving. They are, where they are, by our seeking, and their country was exchanged, as
is usually the case, by treaty, doubtless,
with an ignorance on their part, of the nature of that to which they consented to emigrate, and erroneous information on ours as to its fitness. I respectfully recommend that the sub
ject of the sufferings of these people be
relerred to the Congress, that such re
lief may be afforded as in the wisdom of
that body may seem proper. Connecting the object of the removal of those Indians with that of their immediate relief, I would suggest that the sum of fifty thousand dollars be appropriated, with a view to both. I have the honor to be, your most obedient servant, JAMES BARBOUR.

Its object is to preserve young and comparitively innocent people from the mischiefs that result from a mixing of such with old and incorrigible transgressors ofthe laws.

Poetical Negro. The following anecdote, says the Philadelphia Religious Me:senger, we have received from an unthentic source, and may be fully relied on as !ubstantiallv correct, ll is the severcst satire we have lately seen, upon the liberties of our country. "Some winters since, while the Concress of the United States were in session, a Georgia slave dealer w as driving past the Capitol, in Washington, about 40 slaves chained together. Among the rest was a large negro man, who was not only chained as the others, but also handcuffed. He was a very Caesar in appearance and spirit, and possessed an admirably fine and melodious voice for singing. The spectacle drew to the door of this elegant and snacious hnild-
