{"value"=>"They will be ready for sea in about a fortnight; the fleet for Halifax sailed on the 24th ult.; the fleet from Florida has arrived, it was detained by bad weather; the treaty entered into with Gov. Mathewes with respect to negroes has been discontinued, to his regret; the negroes will be disposed of according to former directions; a board of officers is now sitting to discriminate such as from particular circumstances will have to be removed; the Tartar frigate, supposed to have been carrying dispatches from the Commander-in-chief, has not been heard of since the 28th ult.; Col. McArthur having been fixed in the command at St. Augustine, and Gen. Stewart wishing to decline that post, he hopes the former arrangement may stand. Copy."}
