To & valuable Correspondent, we ale in
debted for the letter inserted below, aud
for two late Liverpool papers. .
The Editors of the American Centinel
give os among other articles in proof sheet,
the folio wins Extract of a letter, dated at
I.lreipool, the 1 tth of February.— The
ports will certainly open next week for Flour
and Wheat, for home consumption. Flour
55 a 56*, Flaxseed XX3», iu demand ; Col
ton improving.”
One of our Liverpool papers (of 11th of
Feb.) states, that the present Parliament
will be dissolved the first week in April.
Another Liverpool paper (of the 9lh)
The Budget is not to be brought
forward until after the Easter holy days.
From Mr. Vansittart’s statement it appears,
that by the operation of the Sinking If und,
there had been a reduction for the last year
in the national debt to the amount of
; 15,000,000 : and that the new floating debt
I incurred by is«uing Exchequer Bills amount
ed to 12.000,000/. Thus, upon the balance,
1 there was an actual paying oft of three mil
; lions. Mr. Vansittnrt admitted, at the
j same time, thajt there might be some deti
! ciencies as yet unprovided for, which
; would lessen this balance iu favor of the
country.”
A Liverpool paper of the ltth of Februa
ry mentions, that a curious, seizure was
lately made in the London Docks. “A
j number of barrels of pitch having been land
ed from the Galen, Capt. Tracy, from Bos
ton. and Mr. Morrice, Landing Surveyor of
the Customs, having information that to
bacco was contained in some of them, he or
dered one of them to be cut in half, when a ■
J quantity of manufactured pig-tail tobaceo
i was discovered coueeuled iu the ceutre. To
' prevent detection, the head of the cask and
the sides had been well stored with pitch,
twelve other casks were seized under simi
lar circumstances.
CONGRESS
House of Representatives.
Friday, April 3.
Mr. Cobb submitted for consideration the
following resolution :
Resolved, That the committee on military
; affairs be instructed to enquire into the ex
pediency of increasing the pay of the mili
tia now iu the service, or which may here
after be called into the service of the Uni
ted States, in the war now prosecuting
against the Seminole Tribe of Indians ; and
of affording additional pay to those who
have been in service ia said war aud have
been discharged. M
Mr. C. an apology was due
to the House, this resolution at
t such a late day in the session—the apology
he should make was, that he had under
stood this measure had been introduced ear
ly in the session in the Senate—From causes
unknown to him, that body had Hot yet act
| ed upon it
Mr. C. further observed that if he recol
lected correctly the published arguments j
which were urged for retaining the number
of 10,000 ineu upon the peace establishment !
of the army, oae was, that out of that nuni- j
ber a sufficient force could at all times be ;
commanded, to put au end to any Indian
war which might happen, without calling
upon tlig militia—Yet an Indian war had
happened, which one of the general officers
of the United States has chosen emphatical
ly to call a little war, to terminate which a
militia force of at least four thousand men
had been called iuto service. It was not
for him to give reasons for this procedure.
' There were at this time in service at least
I 3000 men of the Georgia and Tennessee
( militia. They had been called out at a
! season of the year, above uli others of the
j most consequence to them; for that they
would be in service just long enough to de
prive them of the opportunity of making a
crop upon their farms. In addition to this,
he would observe, that a more inclement
season had hardly ever been witnessed in
that part of the country where the militia
were. If his information was correct, they
had been exposed to incessant rains from the
time they were embodied until he last heard
from them. But this was not all; they had ,
been starved. He had understood and beli- I
eveefthat the Tennessee militia, after hav
ing entered the nation, were compelled to j
return to their settlements in Georgia in or- j
der to be subsisted ; and that the Georgia ;
militia had been reduced to an allowance of
a half a pint of corn a day. To whom the
blame of this state of things was to be at- ,
taehed, be would not say ; but he thought i
that persons suffering such hardships and
privations were entitled to a greater compen
sation than the pitiful sum office dollars per
month. He thought that thp House would
agree with him that not less than double
that sum would be but a poor reward to men
thus situated. He was of opinion that, had
the militia been properly fed and attended
to, they would wot have complained, or cared
for the trilling pay now allowed them by
law. But be thought the government ought
at least to increase the weight of their pork
ets, after fading to afford them food. He
concluded by saying, be had offered those
observations with the motive of inducing
the House not only to adopt the resolution
he had offered, but speedi y to adopt any
measure founded on it.
The motion was agrqfd to.

MILLEDGKVItLE, April 14.
Army News.
We have intelligence from the army to
the noth of last month. The Georgia mili
tia and regulars, about 2000 strong, march
ed on the 20th from the Fort reeeiuly estab
lished on tlie Appalachieola, 65 miles below
Fort-bcott, against the Mickusuk.t tribe of
Indians, whose town is situated ou the head
waters of the river bt. Marks, about ao
miles to the east of Fort-Seott, and perhaps
more than too from where the army set out.
Uol. Milton, who had been detained at Fort-
Early by sickness, arrived ut Fori-bcott,
with MTntosh and his warriors, oh the da*
the army marched. T hej in tended to fol
low on, and join their comrades iii arms, as
speedily as possible. We are much grati
fied to iearn, that Geu‘l Jatksou has uiug
nauimously given Gen’l Games the active
command of the army, if the Indians mean
to make a stand against us, a battle has no
doubt been already fought.

Extract of a tetter from Mr. Thomas Her
bert to his Jatner in Jones county, dated
Poplar Spring, Alabama Ter, .uarch it.
“Yesterday Capt. William Butler, Dan
iel bhaw and William Gardner, ail fotiucr
ly of Jones county, Georgia, were killed by
Indians. Captain baifuld and others who
were in company made their escape. Colo
nel Dale with tnirty meu have eoine to our
assistance; and there are thirty Choctaws
and seventeen regulars ou their wey. We
expect them to morrow. We have built a
fort at this place which we have called ‘Fort
Dale.’ The wotneu, eluldreu aud wagons
have been sent to Fort Cla<uorne. Gover
nor Bibb has ordered out two companies of
militia, uue from Clarke and the other from
Montgomery.”
Another letter dated 81st of March, snys,
“ The ludians have not committed any mur
ders since my last. We hate just returned
from a scout which we extended to the fur
thermost large prong of Coueco, there we
turued down the stream and went about
twenty miles, £td were compelled to return
in consequence of the want ot provisions.—
Wo made no discoveries except some old In
dian sigus. borne Choctaws who went up
the creek yesterday, discovered four Indians
with their womeu and childreu, who, being
upon their guard aud near a large swamp,
made their escape, leaving behind fifty deer
skins, some cooking utensils and dried veni
son, all of v.lull the Choctaws brought into
fort to-day. We have just received infor
mation from the fort ut Pine-Barren, that
there were eight Indians seen near there yes
terday, who had stolen some corn from a Mr.
Earnest, and that reports of guns were heard
in the neighborhood next morning. We are
making preparation to pursue them. Our
force consists of 21 volunteers, 17 regulars,
20 Choctaws and 14 Creeks ftom Marnack’s

Lupenella.
The experiment has been fully made
whether this valuable vegetable w ill succeelf
in our soil. A quantify of the seed was
brought from Italy 18 months since, by Dr.
Reynolds who received it from a friend ia
j Leghorn—and sown in April of the last
1 year, in a grass plot of Upton Lawrence,
| Esq. of this place. Although exposed to all
j the rigours of the frost of the winter, the
j Lupenella grew luxuriantly, and completely
imbedded itself in the soil.—lt maintained
I its verdure during the coldest weather, and
I has already commenced its spring growth.
It appears, therefore, quite evident that this
! nutricious substance will domesticate itself
in the middle states of America, affording
pasturage, during whiter to cattle, aud tin*
most abundant harvests to the sickle.
