NEW-YOKK, SEPT. 4.
Extract of a letter to S. Toplff,
dated Gibraltar , July 22.
? General O'Donnell has received
the order of .Charles 3d. and been
appointed JCnigfat Grand Cross.?
Every thing i\ now quiet at Cadiz.
The expedition for South Jhnerica
is abandoned.
From the Spanish Main . ? We
learn of Capt. Quereatu who arrived
yesterday in 18 days from Curacoa,
that a vessel had arrived there from
the Main, with iutelligcnce ; that
Admiral Brinu had takeu; posses
_ siou of Barcelona without opposition.
He had landed & force of 1400 men.
- It was expected he would soon
move liis squadron before Cumana,
while his. troops attacked it in the)
tear. It was thought the Spaniards
%vould feign an attack upon Marga
retta, in order to draw Brum- from
Cumana. The. Spaniards had laid
tin embargo at Porto Cavetto and
Laguira.
j From St. Salvador,? ? Capt. Al
len, who arrived yesterday, in 41
days passage, informs that there had
been no privateers oil the coast for
?oine time. A Portugese convoy
sailed for Lisbon 'on the 10th July.
About 1000 troops had ' embarked
for St. Catherines ; a like number
from Pernamhuco, and a much larger
force from Itio, had sailed for the
8*me destination iov w hat object was
not known, but sup|>6sed to join the
troop* at Monte Video against Bue
nos Ayres.
Loud complaints were made in
Brazil against, the Americans, for
being concerned in the privateers
' w hich harass their trade, and against
our government for suffering prizes
to come into our, ports.
We understand that the ship Mag*
net, which sailed on Tuesday for
? Liverpool^ took back 13d steerage
passsengers*. who recently arrived
, here from England in pursuit of em
ployment, but could find none.
PHILADELPHIA, AUGUST 3.
Disappointment.? It is computed
that at least thirty thousand people
resembled ou the Jersey shore, and
the wharves of the city, yesterday
afternoon to witness the ascension
of an Air Balloon* which had been
publicly announced. The multitude
however, were completely disap*
pointed, the projector of the ascent
not being able to inflate his serial
chariot. There being strong re&sous
to believe the whole tiff air a hoax
tn the public, it was with difficulty
that tlie crowd were restrained from
destroying the Balloon. We under
stand, that several incisions were
made in it with pen knives.
Admitting that SO, 000 people cros
sed and recrossed the Delaware yes*
terday, the ferriage alone would
amount to ?600 dollars. Hnd the
projector of the ascent any under

A treaty was concluded in this
town on the 3ist ult. between Col.
Angusle Chouteau and Col. Benja
min Stephenson, commissioners on
the part of the United States, and
the chiefs and wairiorsof the Kicka-'
poo tribe of Indians. The Kicka
poos have ceded all their lands south
east of the VV abash river, and the
following tract of land, viz: ? Be
gining'on the Wabash, at the upper
corner of tlieir cession of 1809;
thence northwestwardly to the line
that separates the states of Illinois
in?) Indiana ; thence with said linr
to the itanVakee river ; thence dow ?
the same to the Illinois liver, an
with the luic of that river to it* con
fluoric** with the Mississippi ; thence
?n a direct tine to the Vi nee lines trad; j,
thence on the western and northern
boundaries of their former cession to
the begiuing. ; This tract coutains
between thirteen avl fourteen mil
lions of acres. They receiVewn ex
change a tract of land on the Osage
river, west of the contemplated boun
dary of the proposed state of Mis
souri, and will remove there immedi
ately. They are to" receive, also,
an annuity of two thousand dollars
for fifteen years, which is to be paid
to them at theii: village on the Osage.
By this treaty the disputed claim
to the Sangamo Country is extinguish
ed, and a very large additional tract
acquit ed, to w hich the title of the
Kickapoos was indisputable.
