CAPTURE OF BLACK HAWK.
SI. Lottie, September 8, 1832.
The Slenm Boat Winnebago, Captain Hunt,
from Galena, stopped for a few minutes yes
terday at tho wharf, on her way lojeffeson
Barracks (ten nnles below the city.)
The boat left Galena having on board
Black Hatch, the Prophet and eleven other
head men of iho Sacs and Foxes, together
with ubout fifty warriors of less distinguished
fame. The latter -vero landed on this side of
the lower rapids, on their pledge of remaining
quiet and inoffensive. Black Hawk, Prophet
nnd tho other eleven have been taken to Jef-
feison Barracks, there lo remain as hostages
for the peaceable conduct of their tribes intlill
a final settlement of nil difficulties shall be
made. A Mackinaw boat passed the city on
Thursday on her wav to Bnrracks, with five
men under tho command of Lieu. Cross, of
the army, having with them in custody Neo
pope nnd some six or seven other warriors.
We understand that Black hawk and the
Prophet were captured by u part of the AVin-
riehagoes nnd by.them delivered lo their agent
at the Prairie. These two Chiefs were not
taken together, although they woro delivered
up lo the whiles at the same time.
The capture of the chiefs of the hostile In
dians insures the permanent tranquility of the

Looking only to tlioso accounts from Por

in debate they have so often professed.—

honor nl originating nnd introducing the first
resolutions in opposition to tho existing tariff
policy into the councils of that State, lielongs
not to the Calhoun fnetinn, hut to a gentleman
now residing in tins place, who was then bnre-

awe nnd so completely spell-hound was the
Assembly of South Carolina at tlint day to this
chief oj the clans, that out of 124 member.",
nonq Imd the temerity lo support AI. May's
resolutions. This was in the day of the A’tce
President’s glory,when it was considered 'rea
son in Carolina lo oppose any of his measure"-
