, _ P'£lNSACOLll, May 29th, 1818.
. Major Gen. Andrew Jackson has found it ne-
cessary to take possession of Pensacola. He
has not been prornfed to this measure from a
wish to extend the territoi_'ial limits of the United
States, or from any_ unfriendly feeling on the part
of the Americaii Republic, to the Spa_ni_sli gov-
ernment. The Seminole Indians, inliabitingthc
territories of Spain, have for ‘more than two ‘years;
past, visited our frontier settlers with all the hor-
rors of savage 'm_assacrc’—-g-helpless women have
been butchered and the cradle stained with the
blood of innocence‘. These atrocities, it was ex-
pected, would have early attractetl the atteiitiori
‘of the Spanish government, and faitliful to exist-
ing treaties, speedy measures adopted for their
suppi'ession_. p _ _ _ . . i _
The obligation to restrain them was_zicliuoivl-
edged; but weakness was alledged with a con-
cession, that so fay from being able to control,_the'
Spanish authorities: were often compelled from
policy or necessity to issue triuoitiops of warlto
these savages, thus enabling, if not exciting them
to raise the tomahawk against us. The immu-
table laws of self defence, therefore, compelled
the American gove'riir'neiit to take possession of
such parts of the Floridas in which the Spanish
autliority,cp"uld_ not be maintained. . Pensacola.
was found"'iii this situation, and will be held un-
til Spain -can furnishgmilitary strength sufficierii:
to‘ enforce existing treaties. Spanish subjects
will be respected '; ‘Spanish laws will govern
all cases affecting property and person '5 a free
taleration to all religions guaranteed, and trade
alike free to all nations; _ P _ _ , p _
Col. King will assume the command of Pen-
sacola, as military and civil governor. ._
The Spanish laws so far as they affect personal
rights and proper-tyrwillbe enforced. _ Col. King'-
will take possession of the arcliives of the
ince, and appoint some confidential individtial to
preserve tlieni. It_is all important that the re-
cords of titles and property should be carefully
secured. He will cause ‘an enquiry to be made
into all the landed property belonging to the king
of Spain, and have possession taken of it. The
claims of property within the "range of gun shot
of fort Carlos do Barancas will be s'cr‘upulo_usly-
examined into, and should they prove valid, a
rent allowed, but possession in no wise given.--‘-‘-
This property is necessary to the U. States, and
and under its laws may be held, an equivalent be-
ing paid. ;
The revenue laws of the U. States will be "es-
‘ tablishéd, and Captain Gadsden is appointed to act
as collector with full powers to nominate such
sub-oflicersn as in his opinion will be necessary to
the faithful discharge -. "' the trust imposed in him.
He will apply to the governor of Pensacola for
military aid in all cases where it will be necessary
to correct attemps at illicit trade. ‘

mand of Gen. Jackson.
Th'e garrison to march out with the honors of
war, their arms to be stacked at the foot oftthe
glacis, whence they were to remain until the
troops were embarked for Havana, when they
will be returned. The oliicers and troops to
carry with them their personal effects. All ti-
tles legally derived from thc crown of Spain pri-
or to this date, to be ‘guaranteed and respected.
The garrison tobe transported to Havana on
account of the United States. Vessels to be
furnished for embarking the personal effects of
the Governor, and those in the civil and mili-
tary offices, to be delivered up without inspection.
The sick and wounded. to be maintained by the
U. States. The garrison of Pensacola to enjoy
the same privileges as the garrison of Barancas,
The provisions found in the two places to be ap-
propriated for the Spanish troops. Individuals
disposed to remain in Florida, to be respected and
protected? The officers and troops to be trans-
ported to Pensacola, where they shall remain un-
til embarked for Havana. The Alabama chief,
(Opayhola) now in the fort, shall be included in
this capitulation, the governor engaging that he
shall never return to Floritla. A free toleration
to all religions granted. ‘ Any Spanish vessels
arriving, to be freely admitted.
./Irt. 19-'-'-The capitulation is made iindcrgthe
confidence that the general of the American
troops will complywith his offer of returning in-
tegrally this province in the" state in whiclilie re-
ceived it as stated in his‘-official letter. Appro-
ved—And the restoration made under the condi-
tions expressed in Gen. Jackson's communica-
. tion to the Governor of Pensacola, dated.23 May,

Accounts by the way of St. 'l‘homa‘s state,

Bermudas, attacked Cumana, and was totally dc-
featcd-‘-‘-‘—That in a late‘ battle near Calaboza, the
independents were complete] y routed-—’l‘ hat Bol-
ivar is missing, and is much blamed,‘ having had
9000 men, whilst the royalists had -but 4000-
That one half of the troops under the royal com-
mand would have joined Bolivar on his showing
a disposition to maintain a stand--'l‘liat he was
so jealous of others’ talents as _to drive from him
all men of intelligence. Admiral Brion is also
blamed for not coming to the assistance of the
iridependeiits. T hey are driven in every quarter,
have neither money or produce; the prospect
of independance in- Venezuela is at.a‘n end for
the present-—-and the people will be subjected to
the cruelty and revenge of the Royalists,-—._Re-5.
