GOOD EYE BIGHT.
"R* now the dead of mg lit—
And ilie new moon shines dimly,
Yet 1 am quite cheerly l’ve got ■ sailor's rye.
Awajmwi.
I once knew a man that prided hnneelf on
the atrenoth of hie vieiun—and to such length*
•lid his infatuation carry him, that he boldly
ofiiimcd that Uc could trace the lineage of a
whole family by being acquainted with one of
it* membere. Aa a proof of Ins penetration,
he one evening took a walk with a friend in
Broadway, and during their walk they met a
lady unattended, coining toward* them.
When within htiling d » ance, he made a
midden halt, and ob-eivod to Ins fr.cnd thai he
could call the ladv by name, although he had
never met with her before.
On h'B frend inquiring by what mean* he
was enabled to penetrate so deeply into the
mysteries of the unknown, ho remarked that
when he was a midshipman in the Navy, (a
boul eix years before) and was on a coasting
voyage—they touched at South America, and
while there, he made an acquaintance with
her brother, and from the resemblance she
bore to him, he was confident he eould call
her by name.
His friend, however, belonging to the univer
sal Yankee nation,wa* with mere
assertion—he was not to be nude game ot at
so cheap a rate—it would not do no how—hut
insisted Jon hi* given occular demonstration
to prove hi* theory—and proposed makings
bet that it. was all a matter of moonshine from
beginning to end.
Our hero midshipman, wa* now obliged t#
round to, and face his antagonist, or down his
colors, and bo called a coward. He chose
the former, and accepted the wager, and step
ping up to the lady, he accosted bur with a
low bow, saying :
“I beg your pardon, madam—ls lam not
mistaken, your name is Me** B ? lam sc
quaintod with your brother—have just left
him at Sonlh America—and you bearing such
a striking resemblance to h in, I have taken
the liberty of introducing myself to yon in this
public manner. My name, dear madam, is
midshipman IV. oftho United States Navy—
(handing her a card at the instant.) I stop at
Miss S's fashionable hoarding house in C—
street!*
Tite lady, as would be supposed, was not a
little startled, owing to the lateness ol the
hour, to be lints publicly accosled by two gen
tlemen, utter strangers to her—and was on
the point of crying watch and bloody murder ;
hut when she heard her brother's name men
tioned, she forgot her fright and her unprotect
ed situation, and in awoetind smiling manner
acknowledged t
“ You are not mistaken i t the person yon
address. My name is Miss S——, and my
brother, whom I have not heard from for ma
ny years, is residing in Sonlh America. How
was ho when you left him."
“In capital health and spirits. He is one
of the fi nest fellows I ever knew. Oh! the
many little expeditions he and I have had !,’
“ You have V* said the lady—“ 1 should bo
pleased to hear of my brother."
“ Nothing would give me greater pleasure
than to give you a full account of his move
ments. Will yon permit me to have iho plea
sure of calling on you !'*
“I do want to hear of my dear brother"-
and the sweet creature pausing and glancing
her eye timidly over the fine person of the
midshipman—“l reside at No.**, in *** street.
If yon will call, we shall he glad to *n<“ you."
They separated—in a few days the midship
man was a constant visiter at the house oftho
young lady’s father, and in less than two
months the parson finished their business for
l.fo in a most workman and rapid like manner
Thus much for accuracy of vision.
Cheap Accommodations. —A friend ha*
given us his hill at a tavern in the western part
of Wisconsin. It reads thus:
Mr. to Dr.
To 5 suppers, ti lodging, 2 breskftsls, 2
p cits of oats, Ol)
“What,” said our friend, “only si* dollars?"
“Oh," replied the landlord, “ns we had ir> hay
for your horeo, and a* you slept in the bed of
»ur 4 black man, who hits gout out to buy s tme
dogs of the Indians, 1 have been rather n o ler
ate, and hope you will say a word in our
favor when you get in the vicinity of news
papers."
Anecdote. —An Indian chief having done
n small favor for the first Governor of Canada,
i ailed for Ins reward. His excellency took the
ivd man into the public store room, and desir
ed linn to name what he would. His savage
ryes, after roaming about the room for some
time, at last settled upon some tnllow candles
which were suspended from a joist. He took
them for foreign fruit hung up to dry. "Ale
take dat,” said the savage. The Governsr
handed him two pounds, which he thrust into
his bosom, and went away well satisfied. A
few days afterwards, the Governor met the In
dian in tlte street, and after the usual compli
ments, the following convcrslion ensued:
“Governor—Well, Hut buck, how did you
like the candles?
Indian —Berry well.
Governor.—Did you burn (hem ail yet?
Indian.—Burn him ? I eat him.
Governor.—You ate them?
Indian—Yes, I boil him with ray corn and
cat him all up.
Governor.—And how did they eat?
Indian,—Why, the fruit eat berry well, but
tin; core stick in my squaw frofe, and nearly
choke hinW.lul’s all.”
As lira sly le of the In'ugural has been much
heprasied, it is fair that it should undergo the or
deal of crititcism, The New York Courier and
Enqu:. er has discovered in it, the following
beauties of style in which Mr. Van Uurcn dis
plays that democratic independence of Grammar
which distinguished him at the early period of
his political caieor—when the lutlbriugs of his
party wua intolerable.
The Inaogiibal.—“ln imitating their exam
plo” (in making a speech, not in saving the
country) “I (read in the footsteps of illustrious
men, whose superiors, it is our happiness to be
lieve, are not found in the executive calender of
any country."
It is namet not people, that are usually found
in calender*. A* loan executive calender, we
have never heard of lha thing liefore. We have,
however, some dim suspicion of w hat is meant.
II Among them” (in the calender aforesaid)
"we recognize the earliest ami firmest pillars of
the republic.”
A very happy continuation of the preceding
metaphor of the calender. The illustrious men
upon it are suddenly become not men, nor names,
but pillars; and the pillarsofa calender ; which
callcndet is an executive calender.
“If such men in the position I now occupy,
felt themselves overwhelmed by a sense of grati
tude for this, the highest of marks of their coun
try’s confidenca, and by a consciousness of their
inability adequately to discharge dre duties of an
office so difficult and exalted, how much more
most those considerations cSecl one who can re
ly on no alp'll claims for favor or forbearance.”
it is certainly very dilfinlt not to agree with
you, Mr. Yan Uurcn, in lira raodoalest possible
view ofyour public services, virtues, or abilities,
lie not, however ashamed of the office. Keep
your confusion fix the means by which you got
there. As fox “ gratitude- “to those who gave it
to you, we beg leave to sal you- as to

Jackson, not the poopk-, who-got you your place;
tec tijly, as to the voles you got or the friends
you have, they are not of that aort, or upon those
motives, that call for a vary deep sens* of grati
tude, or will content theiqwdret with »uch an
unsubstantial return. A* lor the Presidency's

To the Revolution, certainly, ns far a* any

REMARKS OF MR. CALHOUN,
ON THE
RECEPTION OF ABOLITION PETITIONS.
tn Senate United Slate I, February, 1837.
It (ho lime of (bo Kcnatc permitted, I would
feel it to be my duly to cull fur the reading of the
mass of petitions on the table, in order that we
might know wbal language they hold lowarda
the slave-holding States and their institutions;
but as it will not, I have selected, indiscriminate
ly from the pilr.t wo : one from those in manu
script, and the other from the piinted, and with
out knowing their content* will call for the read
ing of them, ao that wo may judge, by them, of
the character of the whole.
(Here ilie Secretary, on the ca!l of Mr. Cal
houn, readjlhe twojpclilions.)
Much, resumed Mr. C., is the language held to
wards ua and ours; the peculiar institutions of the
South, that on the maintenance of vhich the very
existence of the slave-holding State* depends, it
pronounced to bo sinful ami odious, in the sight of
God <k man; and this with a systematic design of
remfe irg os hsteful in lira eyes of the world, with
a \icw to a general crusade against ua and our in
stitutions. This too, in the legislative halls of
the Union ; created try these confederated States,
for the belter protection of their peace, their safely
ami their respective institutions; and yet we, the
representatives of twelve of these sovereign- titea
against whom (hi* deadly war is waged, are ex
pected to sit here in alienee, hearing ourselves and
our constituents d ty after day denounced, with
out uttering a word,—if we but open our lips, the
charge of agitation is resounded on all aides, and
we are held up as seeking to aggravate iho evil
which wo resist. Every reflecting mind must
see in all this, a state of things deeply and dan
gerously diseased.
Ido not belong, said Mi. C,, to the school which
holds that aggression is to be met by concession.
Mine is the opposite erred, which teachers that
encroachments must be met at lira beginning, and
that those who act on the opposite principle are
prepared to becrnio slaves. In (hit case in par
ticular I hold concession or compromise to be fa
lsi. If we concede an inch, concession would
follow concession—-compromise, would follow
compromise until our ranks would be so bro
ken that effectual residence wsuld be impos
sible. We must meet the enemy on the fron
tier, with a fixed determination of maintain
ing our position at eveiy hazard. Consent to re
ceive these insulting petitions, and the next de
mand will be that they bo referred to a committee
in order that they may be deliberated and acted
upon. At the last session we were modestly ask
ed to receive them simply to lay them on the la
ble, without any view of ulterior action. I then
told the Senator from Pennsylvania. (Mr. Buch
anan) who strongly urged that course in lira
Senate, that it was u position that could not lie
maintained ; as the argument in lavor if acting
on the petitions if wc were bound to receive, could
not be resisted. I then said that the next slop
would be to refer the petition to a committee, and
I already sec indications that such is now the in
tention. If we yield, that will be followed by ano
ther, we would thus proceed step by step to
the final consummation of the object of these pe
titions. We arc now told that the most effectual
1 mode of arresting the progress of Abolition is to
> reason it down, and with this view it ia urged
that (hr pe items ought to be referred to a com
mittee. That is the very ground whieh was ta
f ken at the last session in the other house, but in
stead of arresting its progress it has since advan
' ced more rapidly than ever. The most unques
i lionable right may be rendered doubtful, if once
■ admitted to be a subject of controversy, and that
i would lie the case in the piesent instance. The
subject is beyond the jurisdiction of Congress—
> they have no light lo much it in any straps or
form, or to make it the subject of deliberation or
- discussion.
In opposition to this view it is urged Congress
is bound by the Constitution to receive petitions
in every css# and on every subject, whether with
in iu constitutional cunqictcncy or not. I hold
the doctrine lo l>e absurd, and do solemnly be
lieve, that it would be as easy to prove that it has
1 the right to abolish slavery, as that it is bound to
• receive petitions for that purpose. The very ex
’ istenre of the rale that requires a question to be
1 put on the reception of petitions, is conclusive to
t show, that there ia uo such obligation. It has
1 been a standing rule from the commencement of
r the Government, and clearly allows the sense of
t those who formed the Constitution on this point,
i The question *p the reception would be absorb,
t if as it contended w* are bound to receive; but I
do not intend to argue the question; t discussed
i it fully at the fast session, and the arguments then
i advanced neither have nor con he answered.
I As widely as this incendiary spirit hat spread,
i it has not yet infected this body, or lira great mass
. of the intelligent and business portion of th*
?* North; brf aa!e« It be speedily stopped it will
spread and work upward* till It bangs tbt two
i gretl section* of the Union into deadly conflict.
Tliia ia not a new impression with me. Several
, year* since, in adiacuaaion with one of the Sena
■ ter a from M assacbkselts, (Mr. Webater.) before
thie fell apirii had showed ttaelf, I then predicted
' that the doctrine of the proclamation and the
• force bill, —that this Government had a right in
the lost report to determine the client of bia own
powers, and enforce it at the point of thebayanel,
which wot ao wairnly maintained by that Sena
tor, would at no distant day arouse the dormant
spirit of abolitionism ; I told him (list the doc
i nine was tantamount to the assumption of un
limited power on the part of the Government,
and that such would he the impression on the pub
, lie mind in a large portion of the Union. The
consequence would be inevitable —a large portion
of the Northern Slates believed slavery to be a
sin, and would believe it to be an obligation of
conscience to almlish it, if they should feel them
selves in any degree responsible for its con
tinuance, and that hia doctrine would neces
siiiily lead to the (relief of such responsibili
ty. I then predicted that it would commence
as it has with this fanatical portion of socie
ty, and that they would begin their operation
on the ignorant, the weak, the young, and the
thoughtless, and would gradually eitendupwards
till they would become strong enough to obtain
political control, when he and olhars holding the
highest station* in society, would, however re
luctant, be compelled to yield to their doctrine, or
be driven into obscurity. But four years have
since elapsed, and all this is already in a course
of regular fulfilment.
■Standing at the point of lime at which we
hare now arrived, it will not he more difficult te
trace the course of future events now than it wat
then. Those who imagine that the spirit now
shroud in the North, will die away of itself with
out a about or convulsion, have formed a very
inadequate conception of its real charactei ; it
will continue to rise and spread, unless prompt
and efficient measures, to stay it* progress be a
dopled. Already it has taken possession of tho
pulpit, of the schools, and to a considerable ex
lent of the press; those great instillments by
which the mind of the rising generation will be
formed.
However (sound the great body of the non
•lavc-holding States are at present, in the course
of a few years they will be succeeded by those
who will have been taught to hale the people and
institutions of nearly one half of this Union,
with a hatred more deadly than one hostile na
, lion ever entertained against another. It is easy
to see the end. By the necessary course of o
vents, if left to themselves, we must become, fi
nally, two people. It ia impossible under tho
deadly haired which must spring up between the
two great sections, if the present causes are per
mitted tolerate unchecked, that we should con
tinue under the same political system. The con
flicting elements would burst the Union assun
der as powerful as are tho links which hold it to
gether. Abolition and the Union cannot co-ex
ist. As the friend of the Union I openly pro
claim il, and the sooner it is known the belter.
The former may now be controlled, but in a short
time il will bo beyond the power of man to
airost the course of events. We of the South
will not, cannot surrender our institutions, To
maintain tho existing relations between the two
races, inhabiting that section of the Union, is in
dispensable to the peace and happiness of both.
It cannot he subverted without drenching the
country in blood, and extirpating one or the oth
er of the races. Be it good or bad, il has grown
up with our society and institutions, and is so in
terwoven with them, that to destroy it would be to
destroy us as a people. But let me not be under
stood as admitting even by implication that tho
existing relations between the (wo races in the
slave-holding States in evil,—for otherwise;
I hold it to boa goad, as it has thus far prov
ed itself is to be to both, and will continue to
prove so if not disturbed by the fell spirit of
abolition. I appeal to acts. Never before
has tins black race of Central Africa, from the
dawn of history to the present day, attained a
condition ao civilized and so improved, not only
physically .but morally and intellectually. It came
among us in a low, degraded, and savage condi
tion, and it* the course of a few generation' it has
grown up under the fostering care of otir insti
tutions, as reviled as they have boon, to its pre
sent comparative civilized condition. This, with
the rapid increase of numbers, is conclusive proot
of the general happiness of the race in spite of all
the exaggerated tales to the contrary.
In the mean time, the white or European race
has not degenerated. It has kept pice with its
brethren in other sections of tho Union where
slavery duos not exist.—lt ia odious to make com
parison ; but 1 appeal to all aides whether the
South is not equal in virtue, intelligence, patriot
ism. courage, disinterestedness, and all the high
qualities which adorn our nature. I ask wheth
er we have not contributed our full share of tal
ents and political wisdom in forming and sustain
ing this political fabric; and whether we have
not constantly inclined most strongly to the side
of liberty, and been (he first to ace and the first
to reaist the encroachments of power. In one
thing only arc we inferior, —the arts of gain ; ws
acknowledge that we arc loss wealthy than tho
Northern section of this Union, but 1 trace this
mainly to tho fiscal action of this Government,
which has extracted much frem, and spent little
among ua. Had it been tho reverse, if the exac
tion had been from the other section, and the ex
penditure with us, this point of superiority would
not be against us now as it was not at the forma
tion of this Government,
But 1 take higher gaiund. I hold that in the
present state of civilization, where two races of
different origin, and distinguished by color, and
other physical dillbrenccs, as well as iniellectual,
ate brought together, the relation now existing
in slave holding States between the two, is, in
stead of an evil, a good—a positive good. 1 feel
myself culled upon to speak freely upon the sub
ject where the lionot and interests of those I rep
resent aia involved. 1 hold then, that there never
hasyot existed a w ealthy and civilized society in
which one portion of the community did not, in
point of fad, live on tha labor of the other.—
Broad and general as is this assertion, it is fully
borne out by history. This is not the proper oc
casion, but if it were, it would not be difficult to
trace the various devices by which the wealth of
all civilived communities has been so unequally
divided, and to show by what means so small a
share has been allotted to those by whose labor
it was produced, and so large a share given to
tho non-producing class. The devices are al
most innumerable, from the brute force and gross
superstition of ancient times, to the subtle and
artful fiscal contrivances of modern. 1 might
well challenge » comparison betvviai them
and the more direct, simple, and patriarchal
mode bv which the labor of the African race is
among us commanded hy the Euro|ican. 1 may
say with truth, that in few countries so much is
left to tho share of the laborer, and so little ex
acted from him, or where there is move kind at
tention to him in sickness or infirmities of age
Compare his condition with the tenants of the
poor houses in the must civilized portions of Eu
rope—took at the tick, and the old and the infirm
slave, on one hand, in the midst of his family and
friends, under tho kind superintending care of
his master and mistress, and compare it with the
forlorn and wretched condition of the pauper in
the poor house. But I will not dwell on this as
pect of the question; 1 turn to the poli ical; and
hero I fentlessly assert that the existing relation
between tire two races in the South, against
which these blind fanatics arc waging war, forma
the most solid and durable foundation on which
to tear free and stable political institutions. It
is useless to disguise the fact. There is and al
ways has been in an advanced stage of wealth
and civilization, a conflict between labor and esp
ial. The condition of society in lbs South ex
empts us from the disorders and dangers result
ing from this conflict; and which explains why
it is that the political condition of the slave-hold
ing States has been so much mote stable and
quirt than those of the North, The advantages
of the former in this respect will become more
end more |manifost if left undisturbed by inter
ference from without, as the country advances
in wealth and numbers. We have in fact but
just entered that condition of society where the
strength and durability of our political insti
tutions are to be tested; and I ventura nothing
in predicting that the experience of tho neat
generation will fully lest how vastly more fa
vorable CUT condition es society is to I bet of
ether section* for free and stable Institution*,
provided we ere not disturbed by the interference
of others; or shall have sufficient intelligence end
spirit to resist promptly and successfully such
interference. It rests with ourselves to meet and
repel them. I look not for aid to this Go
vernment, or to the other Slate* ; not but theie (
are kind feelings towards us on the part of the ;
great body of the non slave-holding Slate*; but
as kind a*(heir feelings may be, we may real «*-
sured that no poNlieal parly in those Slates will
risk their ascendancy for our safety. If we do
not defend ourselves none will defend us ; if vve
yield we will be more and more pressed as vve re- j
cede; and if we enhmit wc will be trampled un- ■
dcr foot. Be assured that emancipation itself
would not satisfy these fanatics —that gained, the
next step would tie to raise the negroes to a so
cial and political equality with the whites ; and
‘ that being effected, we wonld soon find the pre
sent condition of the two races reversed. They
and their northern allies would be the masters,
and we the slave*; the condition of the white
race in the British West Indie Islands, as bad aa
it ia, would be happineas to ours; —there the mo
ther country ia interested in sustaining the supre
macy of the European race. It la true that the j
authority of the former master is destroyed, but
the African will there, still be a slave, not to in
dividuals but the community,—forced to labor,
not by (he authority of the overseer, but by the
bayonet of the soldiery and the rod of the civil
magistrate.
Surrounded as the slave-holding States are with
auch imminent perils, 1 rejoice to think that our
means of defence ere ample, if we ahetl prove to
have the intelligence and spirit to see and apply
them before it is 100 late. All wc want is con
cert, to lay aside all party differences, and
unit# with zeal and energy in repelling approach
ing dangers. Lot there be conceit of action,
and we shall find ample means of security with
out resorting to secession or disunion. I speak
with full knowledge end a thorough examination
of the subject, and for one see my way clearly.
One thing alarms me—the eager pursuit of gain
which overspreads the land, and which absorbs
every faculty of the mind and every feeling of
the heart. Os all passions avarice is the moat
blind and compromising—the last to see and the
first te yield to danger. I dare not hope that any
thing I can say will arouse the r*oalh to a due
sense of danger; I fear il is beyond the power of
mortal voice to awaken it in time from the fatal
security into which it has fallen.
CHRONICLE AND SENTINEL.
~ AtJOUSTA.
Thursday Evening, March, 23 1837.
We received nothing from Charleston last
night in consequence of the failure of the can,
and nothing from New York by the Express mail
this morning. News fiom the latter place, was
published in our paper yesterday up to Saturday
Evening last, and on Sunday no slips are usually
forwarded.
I*. 8. Since the above was in type, the Charles
ton papers have come to hand.
The Standard of Union received here last night f
contains a long communication to the public, from
William N. Bishop. Who the author of it is wc
do not know—but Bishop did not write it! It
purports to be a reply to the presentments of the
Grand Jury of Forsyth county, an extract from
which we published a few day* ago, but is really
nothing but a lame and impotent attempt on the
part of the writer, to stop tho downward tenden
cy which such appointments have given to his
parly. This is attempted to be done first, by
raising the cry of persecution in Bishop’* favor,
and secondly, by making a violent and abusive
attack upon Judge Kenan, who is charged as the
author, or at least the instigator, of those present
ments. U accuse* the Judge of injustice, parti
ality end dishonesty, and all this forsooth because
ho has had the laws of the land executed in a
county, where Bishop himself had hitherto suc
ceeded in completely arresting their operation.—
But the eyes of the people are open on this sub
ject—they are no longer lobe gulled and deluded
hy those who have thus far sustained and counte
nanced Bishop, by defending his chaiacter and
appointing him to honorable and responsible offi
ces, as the reward of hia partizan services.
THE MAGICIAN—MONS. ADRIEN.
We attended the Theatre last night to witness
the performances of this gentleman, whose fame
had reached ua through tho newspapers of vari
ous places where he has heretofore exhibited, We
were pleased, delighted, and often astonished at
the cunning and dexterity with which he performs
his tricks. His inability to speak the English
language, from which we bad anticipated consi
derable detriment to the interest of the perfor

AMERICAN MONTHLY MAGAZINE.
The March No. well sustains the high charac
ter which this periodical justly possesses, and will
be read with much interest and instruction. Its
readers will also be gratified to learn, by a notice
which accompanies il, that its indefatigable and
enterprising publisher* have engaged the valua
ble services of Dr, Robert M. Reid, author of
"Calavar," Sec. Ac., at associate Editor, in con
junction with its able and popular conductors,
Messrs. Hoffman A Benjamin. We rejoice in
this arrangement, and highly approve the praise
worthy liberality which effected it, as will all
who properly appreciate tho distinguished talent*
and striking qualifications of Dr. Reid.
AMERICAN TURF REGISTER.
Tho March No. of this popular work contains,
in addition to its usual quantum of interesting
and valuable matter to the friends of the Turf, of
field sports, Ac. Ac. a lithographic engraving of
the celebrated race-dorse Mazeppa, from a paint
ing by Troye.
SOUTHERN AGRICULTURIST.
The March No. of this excellent work is one
es the best issued for several months, and ws
earnestly recommend it to the attention of our
agricultural friends. Il will amply repay them
for a careful perusal; and indeed the entire week,
■o industriously and ably devoted to the great
interest! of Southern agriculture, should bo zeal
ously encouraged, patronized, and read, by every
Southern Planter.
-SOUTHERN LITERARY MESSENGER.
We are gratified to perceive that this beautiful
and excellent work loses nothing of its wanted
interest and ability, in the hands of its new Editor.
The February No., now before us, is a highly
valuable one, changing ever and anon, a* such a
work should do,
“From grave to gay, from lively to serene;"
ar.d, itch alike in amusement and instruction,
will not disappoint the interest with which it is
usually opened by every class of its readers. The
wosk is, indeed, an honor to the South, and rich
ly deserves the extensive patronage and populari
ty il his earned. We regret that our engage

LATE FROM FLORIDA.
MORE INDIAN’ DEPREDATIONS.
The steamboat J. Slone, Copt. Mendsll, arri
ved here this morning from Black Creek. W*
are indebted to Cepl. Gale, who arrived in the a
hove boat, for the Jacksonville Courier of Thurs
| day last, and the Darien Telegraph of this morn
ing. We extiact the following from the former
ODpCL
t'mm the Jacksonville Courier of Thursday hut.
Ou Satorday night, the lltli inst., a pany of
Indians madc-on attack On Mr. David Lang s
I house, on the south prong of St. Mary’s River, a
| bout lliiny miles from this place, and killed Mr.
John A. Osteen, while silling at supper. The
Indiana made a rush upon the house, which was
checked, by Mr. Lang’s son, quite a lad, shoo
ting one of the Indians entering the door. Ths
family of Mr. Lang immediately closed the doors
of the house which the Indians attempted to force
open but failing, they retired, taking oil Mr. Os
teen's horse. They caught and scalped a young
negto, but he fortunately will, it is thought, sur
vive the wound.
Lt. Dell, of Capt. Bailey’s company, with a
detachment, went on Sunday morning as soon as
Ihe heard of this occurrence,in pursuit of the In
dians. No human foresight can prevent those
unfortunate occurrences. Scouts were out but
the day before, all around the settlement in which
Mr. Lang resides, without finding any signs of
Indians.
On Monday morning a detachment of thirty
men from Capt. Dell’s company was sent from
this place to scour that station thoroughtly, in or
der, if possible, to route those prowling rascals.
Those, are doubtless, the same Indians, who
not long ago, committed in that section several
outrages, of the same nature. They have not
probably heard us the truce, or having heard,
heed it not, and mean to continue their unholy
butcheries. These prowlers, who have so long
lurked about the south prong of the St. Marys
and Brandy Branch, should he hunted like wolves.
Showing no mercy themselves to age, sex, or
condition, we had almost said that none should
• be shown them.
Col. Warren politely informs us that lie ha*
i just heard that two Indians rafts had crossed from
the west to the cast side of the Suwanee River
i eight miles below Charles’ Ferry, supposed to
f have been uesd hy Oseola and his men, coming in
to Gen. Jcsup’s camp. The rafts were discovered
on the 12th inst.
i Maj. Hart, who arrived from Newnansvillc on
Tuesday last, gave us the following information
which he obtained from Mr, Harris, bearing de
spatches trom Gen. Jesnp to the Governor.
Jumper and Little Cloud, Abraham and some
other chiels, were in. On the 9th inst., the day
Mr. Harris left Gen. Jesup’s head quarters, Tiger
, tail rame in, and icperted that he had brought
with him 16 Indians—men, women and childion.
’ He drew rations for them. Little Cloud com
-1 manded at the battle of the Wahoo. Micanopy
■ had sent for a horse to bring him in. Gen. Je
, sup sent the horse requested. Tha horse fell
down with Micanopy on him, and hurt tho chief
' so much that he could not come in. Micanopy
has since asked of Gen. Jesup to forward to him
- pack-houses to bring in his women, children, <stc.
The horses were sent. The Indiana who sur
rendered brought no gun* or ammunition with
them.
. The following is a copy of a synopsis of the
> treaty just made. Maj. Hart obtained it from
• Mr. Harris, who said that a part of it was writ
( ten hy Gen. Jesup himself, and ail of it approved
by him.
Synopsis of the Capitulation of the Seminole
Indians. —Hostilities arc to cease and not to be
renewed, The entire nation shall immediately
, emigrate to ths West. Until they emigrate,
hostages, of whom Micanopy shall be one, are
la be placed in the possession of the Major Gene
ral, commanding. By the first of April, the In
dians are all to be South of the Hillsborough ri
ver; and by the 10th, they arc to be in readiness
(a camp to be designated by Gen. Jesup) to emi
grate to the West. All Indians found North of
the Hillsborough after the first of April, without
- permission of the Commanding General are to
. be considered hostile,

1 The Indians arc to be secured in their lives
• and property. They are to have all the advan
. tages secured to them by the treaty at Bayne’s
Landing
I We have been favored with the perusal of a
letter from an officer of the army, dated Fort
Dade, March 6th, 1837, from which the following
I is an extract:
“ The Seminole chiefs have signed a capitu
lation today, by which they hind the whole na
tion to comply with the Payne’s Landing treaty
and remove West—signed by Holatoochce, Mi
, canopy’s nephew and for him—hy Yohastoo
dice and Calsy-tus-te-Nuggy, and John Cowin.”
! The loiter also state* that Mr. B. M. Dell’s
• negroes were taken by the Micasukies.—Where
i those negroes are is not ascertained.
