Messrs. Ct'antlan«;’.s——l take the liberty of in-
forming you that (Jeneial Jackson took possess-
ion of the Spanish town of Pensacola, on Sunday
about I0 o’clock, \‘.‘llllt)Lll. the fire ofa gun. The
.Governor of the place and some of—the inhabit-
ants have betaken themselves to the Barancas,
.with a determination to maintain the post as long
as possible. The general was making prepara-
tions to move against the Barancas on Monday
morning, . when my inlbrmant left Pensacola.-—
Ilis force is said to be twelve hundred, and that
of the enemy three hundred. the Barancas is
strong, situated at the entrance of the harbor:
but is commanded by an Acminence, on which
; there is a fort. The taking of the latter wi1len-
sure the former. His soldiers suffered consider-
ably, before their arrival at Pensacola, for provi-
sions.*_ They had lost all to about l80 horses--
but they are represented as being in the very best
spirits, and regretting that an opportunity of
fighting had not yet offered. This is very pleas-
ing intelligence to this part of the tcrt‘itory. \Ve
are in hourly expectation of having something
fut‘tbt:t‘ from thence, Great numbers of our cit-
izens lt:fl;ll1lS_plaCe today for the purpose of vis-
iting the army, and to visit the fall of the Burun-
czts. This may be relied on.” .
Since the above was in type, we have been fa-
vored with an extra sheet of the St. Stephens’
Halcyon of thei’. inst. which mentions the fall
of the Barancas, in consequence of the mutiny
of the garrison, after a bombardment of three
clays, with the loss of two Americans and thirteen
..‘Ipai*.iar<ls. The post rider states, that gen, Jack-
son has set out for his residence in Tennessee.
The capture of Pensacola, we think, will bring
our affairs with.Spain to a crisis-—-we shall soon
V
V; have war, or an amicable adjustment of our dif-
ferences with her. ‘ _

Oil i-VVednesday last,‘ the l"estival_ of St. John
Jolin’s Lodge,No. 6. The procession formed at
the Masonic‘-Hall, and proceeded from thence,
attended by music and a large and respectable col-
’lection,K'of citizens, ‘to the Episcopal Church,
where a Discourse, commemorative of the occa-
sion, was pronounced by the Rev. Mr. Smith, of
WiltoLi,fro'rn"G'en. i. 3 :1-/ffrzd God‘ said, 1:: Marc
be lz'§7z2, and tlzerc "was light. At the close of the
“religious ‘ceremonies, the procession returned to
the Hall. An excellent Dinner was prepared by
Mr. ./1rno.’d,at which, about 100 Brethren sat
down. ' ’
On Tuesday evening, the 23d tilt. an accident,
0fa'vei'y melancholy nature, occurred in Bedford,
N. Y. The circumstances, as far as-we have
-been able to learn, are these :-—A young man,
;‘clerk to Mr. "P/u't'z'/2 Smit/z, in that place, went’ in-.
to the store, accompanied by two _or three other
persons, for the purpose ofgetting some powder.
‘While in the act ofweighing it, some one ofthc
company, dcsirous of trying the quality, flashed
some in a gun.--The lire immediately commu-
nicated witli the "powder in the cannister, and
there being a quanity ofother combustible matter
near‘, the stoi c was in a few moments enveloped
in flames. Alarge and elegant Dwelling-House,
contigious to the store, likewise caught fire, and
was entirely consumed. By the explosion, two
persons were instantly killed and another danger-
ously wounded. The amount of property dg-
stroycd, we have not ascertained, but presume it
must be considerable.
Franz a Boston /za/Mr of June ‘.24,
_, Ilfrlizuclzoly ./1ccz‘dc7zt.—-A considerable quantity
of powder, which had been stored in a shed, on
Mill—Pond street, yesterday took lire and,explo-
dt:d,~b~y which unl-’ortunate occurrence three per-
sons have suffered,-viz; one son" of Mr. John
Holt, aged about 7 years, killed; one of Mr.
VV-alter Jucksoti, aged 8 years, terribly burnt;
a young woman, (Mrs. Edcs) who was passing in
the street, was much hurt by the fragments of
the building, which flew in every direction. The
quantity of powder is not precisely known, but
from the force of the explosion must have been
considerable ;-—the windows of the adjoining
buildings were broken.
Since the above was in type, we learn that Mr,
Jackson’s son has also expired. I/V: also under-
stand the powder had been stored in the shed by
the otvgigr but two hours previous to the explo-
sion, with the iniC’.‘ll°“ 01' ll‘-1Vl!1g it conveyed to

fulfilled to the /to/2c.'; cfthe audience. The Songs

mingled in the pei'foi'tiiaiicc, as to keep the pos-
sions of every Auditor, in a state of incessant,
rapid, and delightful vibnzzion.
Their Rccitations were jieculiurly c:ccg‘l[.mz_-_
Such thought-speaking, expressioti of counte-
nance-—such propriety of gesturc—-such com-
pass nf voice-—such volume of intonation, were
exhibited in their performance, that the gravity
of our citizens departed from them. They lost
all thought of realities, and became,by an illusion
of faith, rarely wrought with perfect success, the
wrc:/zt spectators of thosescenes and visions, so
touchingly described. The intervals of exhibi-
tion were agreeably occupied with a new {and
strange description of ifistrunzental mu.s~z'c, which
add resscd itself to something more than the taste,
and effectually restored the self-possession ofthe

a most magnificent national work :——This is e-

pregnable construction, from the Horse Shoe to
the Middle Ground ofthe Chesapeake, by which
that great bay would be completely protected
from invasion by any hostile naval force. lfsuch
