IN PARIS.
The S ~"W pesee- ifv<rrin- fit# rrmmns if i\dfiO-
I eon in the luvalides took place on Tuesday, Ifttn De
cember. The whole line of the procession fimn tile
bank* of the Seme to the Hotel lies luvalides was a*
domed on both sides with military trophies rid a more
magnificent pageant. all the arc Hints agree in saying,
has never bec-n witnessed, in Pari*. Imm four in tee
morning undctcrrcdby t lie coldest day th t bus Imen ex
periencid during the present winter in France, thoui
onds proceeded to the several ml vatilstcuus positions
which different local lies presented for the viewing of
the procession.
At nine o’chtek the first gun was fired,on the banks
of the Seine, at Courbcvoie, where a park of artillery
was siaiioned. This lecarne the a goal foi the com
menccment of the proceeding* of the d.iv. I ram ihe
temple, ereetcJ on the left bank ot the river; the Ahhe
Coquereau end a numerous clergy, in full canonicals,
then issued and proceed and inwards the steamer l.a Do
rade, which had been brought close up to a wooden
caph node, forming a eoinniunieation trclweon the ahore
and its deck. His Royal Highnea* the Prinre de Join
villr met them as they appioaehetl between two lines
of troops, and alter the ex- hangc ol salutations, *u r nod
towards the vessel lined by the sudors from La lielle
Houle, a lioJv of whom proceeded to raise the coffin,
and transported it to tlte temple, the prieis going before
chaunting, accoiding to the usage ol the Catholic
rhu'ch. The remains of vhe Emperor were deprsited
there for two hours, the religious riles which were
there performed, having lasted thus long. Ihe im
mense concourse ol |a’ople who were ar-semhled attois
spot, viewed this protioii of the proceedings in the sol
emn siienre, the roar ol artillery alone sounding thro
the atmosphere.
We subjoin an account of the procession at its prin
cipal stages.
iSPt*Vill , i of THt ixvaLint*.
At an carlv hour, the immense amphitheatres erect
ed on each of the avenues leading f om jto the
principal entrance of the Hotel ties luvalides. began to
receive those wiioru fiirtune had idvored with tickets,
and although the number of tickets delivered amount
ed to 30,000, there was ample accommodation lor at
least 10,000 more. In spile of the piercing coin which
prevailed, and the likelihood id snow, which fell more
than once, though hut slightly, during the day, all
those provided with tickets were present at their post,
some even as early as eight A. M., although the pto
eession was not expected, even by the most sanguine,
to reach the Hi tel dcs linaliJo* before two P. M., so
great was the desire to obtain a glance, not of the re
mains, but the car which cont.ined the remains of him
who had raised the military glorv of France to 6uch a
height and whose tyranny had been expiated hy a
wretched death in a foreign land, severed alike from
his country and his family, and attended but by a few
faithful followers, who adhered to their ma-ter.even in
his fallen fortunes. Iljnor to their names ! One of
these gallant servants, General Bertrand, was present,
and was one of the principal attractions of the day.
Another was expected to have been the-c, General
Monlholon. His noble letter, addressed a few days
since to the French government, supplicating the per
mission to pay anew the last sad duties to that master
whose exile he bad shared, should according to many,
have procured him that painful pleasure, even had his
attendance at the ceremony entailed the necessity of a
paidon This however, was not the opinion of die
government, for no General Montholon was perceived
timid the splendid throng of Januaries who preceded
the remains of Napoleon to their last home.
Several hours elapred before the funeral car made
its apjiearance, and it was painful to remark how lit
tle dignity was preserved in the interim.
At length, however, the funeral car w s perceived
on the other side of the river, nnd some order was res
tored; the troops that had piled their arms hastened
to snatch up their muskets arid to form their ranks.
Previous to ibis a large bird of prey was observed
hovering over the Esplanade, and this, by some, was
immediately converted into an eagle, Had this nccur
led when Rome was in her infancy, it would doubtless
have been considered as an omen, or that Jupiter hud
sent his aerial messenger, the bearer of liis thunder,
bolts, to welcome the departed hero previous to his
translation to Olympus. As it was, it exercised acer
tain efT, ct.
At a little before one, the head of the procession was
seen coming slowly forward, and the sight became I
gradually more and more beautiful. Here it is nerx-s- t
sdiy to give a short desdriptiou of the ground leading I
from the quay to the principal entrance of the Inva- ‘
hdes. It consists in a long straight avenue, at the hot- !
tom of which, with its back to the water, stood the co- J
lossal statues of the principal monarchs that France
lias produced, and that Immortality hm already claim- ;
ed as her own. These stood in the following order:— !
M icdonal I, Lohau.
Morteir, Jourd.in,
Massena, Ney,
Linnes, Kellermann,
Klelier, Latour d’Auvergne, 1
Desail, Hotche,
Marceau, lfuguay Trouin,
Vauban, Turenne.
Condo, Louis XIV ,
Henry IV., Davard,
Francis 1., Louis XII.
buguesclin, Joan of Arc,
Charles VII., t'hsrlcgV.,
Louis IX., Philip Augustus,
Hugh Capet, Charles Martel,
Charlemagne, Clovis,
It certainly was a noble idea to make Napoleon pass j
through this long line of heroes and ol kings, who 1
seemed, as it were, to welcome the mighty dead—the
rqo ii of the highest in lank, the superior of the most 1
celebrated in renown, to the illustiiousasylum chosen
for his mortal remains.
At length the ear was seen—the mighty ear, drawn
by 16 black horses, covered with gold housings—the
ear brilliant beyond compare, and yet neither deficient
in taste nor void of mournful semblance. And here
perhaps was the most laautiful sight of ihe day. The
central road filled with troops, and the procession ad
vancing, between the miles I statutes, just described,
separated from one another by arms emitting a lurid
light, while the back ground was filled on eithei vide
by the mu Ititude shut up in the immense ampithcatres
provided for the occasion, and bv numerous masts from
w hich, tri-colored stieamcrs were gracefully floating in
the air, formed a sight replete with such beauty und
interest, that “ those who saw can surely ne’er forget.”
As the car passed, each held was uncovered ; and
although the shouts of *• Vive Napoleon ! Vive I’Eni
pereur!” joined in Ihe cries of “ Vive lo Roi! Vive -
Punce de Joinviliel” were few and far between, a
ccilain decree of emotion prevailed, and many an eye
was suffused with tears.
borne sensation was excited by a body non-commis
aionrd office on horseback. 87 in number, l<earing
fl igs. with the names of the 87 departments o! Frame,
including Algeria. Those digs were surmounted by
a gold eagle with oiil-strejclicd wing, and gave to the
passing scene the air ol a Roman triumph. The fore
most of this body was the otlieer bearing the flag, rep
resenting Corsica, the birth-place of Napoleon.
The cat was immediately preceded by the Prince j
of Joinville, on horsebuk, in the uniform of captain
of the navy, attended bv lies stall, and accompanied on
each side hy 2 >0 of the siilors of the Belle Houle, the
frigate despatched by the French Government to (St.
Helena, to bring home the remains of the Emperor.
It was hi If-past two when a salute of twenty-one
guns announced that the funeral car had reached the
gate of the luvalides ; the sailors of Ihe Belle Poulo
instantly commenced their preparations to deceud the
body front tin-car. A great struggle was here m ido
to obtain a glimpse of the coffin as it was home bv
thirty-six sailors into the (Jour Boyalo of the luvalides,
where the Archbishop of Paris, attended hy all his
clergy was waiting to receive it.
TIIS CHURCH OF Tilt IHVtlinr.S,
The interior Ilf the church was filled at an early
hour by the persons who came in carriages, and were
allowed to go in hy the southern entrance. Tlioso
who went oti foot, and entered by the gotpwjy of the
rsplmade, found nearly all the seats occupied when
they got in.
At two o'docx Ihe ariiv.il of numerous genera!., with
their siils-de-ciimp, and the bustle of ihe orderly ofli
ceis, announced that the royal cortege from the Turl
eiies wag at hand, and a salute of 21 gens ushered in
the arrival of the King. The drums in the nave boat
a rnval salute, Hnd the archbishop, preceded !- tho
clergy, advanced towards the end of the nave. ?. if to
1 ! rrae:ve bis Majesty ; but there was some mistake in
! this part of the ceremony, for the procession, l>efore it
tea- lied the great door, was stopped, and had to return.
The king and the royal family, did not come up the
nave, hut went at once to the dome. Hie Majesty,
wearing the uniform of the national guard took bis
seal on the throne prepared for him, to the right of
the a tar- Near the king were the princes and hi tuaj
Italy's jiils-de-cauip, On the left of the altar was the
archbishop of Paris, with the bishops assisting—the
Cur,- dcs luvalides, and the clergy. In an enclosed
scst near the king were the queen, the princesses, and
the ladies in attendance. Under the dome, around the
catafalque, the ministers am! marshalls w ere stationed.
In the li ft branch of the transcrpt w ere the memliers of
the Chandler of the Deputies, and on the right were
the peris and members of the Council of Slate. In
two inclosed seats were the judges and officers ot the
Courts of Cassation anJ Accounts. Next to these, on
the light, were the memliers of the Court Rsyale, the
I Council General of the Seine, and the Municipal Coun
i cil ot Paris, having at their In ad the prelect of tlx
l Seine sml the perfect of police, the stall officera ot the
I nations! guard, and the army, and the Council of the
I Admirably. On the I ft were the members of the
University, the Institute, and other learned bodies, and
the tribunals of First Instance and Commerce, tbo
stall of the Hotel des luvalides, jwrfvcu and mayota of
departments, Ac.
A little b fore three, two guns, in quick succession,
and then 19 others, announced the arrival of the iin-j
perial coffin at the entrance of the Hotel. The arch
biahop immediately went with bis clergy to receive it.
and to sprinkle it with holy water. At three precise
ly. the orcliestrv began a solemn march and the clergy
re-entered the nave chanting, and moved slowly to
wards tlx dome. At this moment the excitement wjs
intense—the music died away ; there was a dead si
lence throughout the chfirch. nnd immediately there
was seen the imperial coffin covered with its velvet and
embroidered pall, on which was the imperial crown
veiled in era]**, borne on the shoulders of the sailors,
and some non-coin missioned officers of the army
surrounded with a closely pressed throng of sailors,
who with the young prince behind, the pall bearers at
the angles, anil r crowd of officers following, which
moved up the churih at a very rapid late. The effect
>f tins ot it-, first coming into Ihe n ive. when every
one lest ified their respect by a profound stillness, and
the troops presented arms, was one of the most impos
ing pa'ts otThe ceremony, before the coffin luitl how
ever reaclicj the entrance of the dome, the solemn
inarch was again renewed, and at length burst nut into
a glorious strain of triumph. Nothing could be finer.
The Prince de Joinvillc then presented the body to
the King, saying—“ Sire, I present to you the body ol
the Emperor Napoleon.”
The King replied, raising his voice. “ I receive it in
the name of France.”
General Athalin carried the sword of the Emperor
upon a cusliin, and gave it to Marshal Sou't, who pre
sented it to the king.
His Majesty then addressed General Bertrand, and
said—“ General, I charge you to place this glorious
sword of the Enipcror upon ins coffin.” This the
general then did.
The musical part of the ceremony was as efficient
as the united talents of the great performers who took
partin it could make it he. The solemn march play
ed by the orcliestry- alone, on the return ol the clergy,
and ‘lie entrance of the body, was magnificent. After
this, the first voice heard was that of G risi by herself—
and it filled with its compass the echoes of the im
mense edifice. Lablanch’s deep notes were heard to
peculiar advantage.
The service lasted altogether about an hour, hut on
its termination a great number of the prrsons who had
been in the aides moved towards the dome to sec the
catafalque and the splendid decorations of that part of
the edifice; and though the last offices of the church
were ended by four o’clock, it was after five before the
edifice was finally cleared. It is calculated that there
were 7000 persons in the interior of the church on
this occasion. The Infante and Infanta of Spam,
with their family were present.
The number of national guards of Paris and the
bofllieue undrr arms yesterday, is estimated at about
sixty thousand; the of infantry and caval
ry, the troops of engineers and artillery, the non com
missioned officers, veterans, gendarmerie, municipal
guard, sapeurs-pom piers, Ac. presented an effective
force of at least 20,000 men.
NEW YORK, JAN. IC.
THE PATRICK HENRY,
FROM I,! Yl'Rl’flOli.
We have another extraordinary short passage from
Liverpool, bringing us London papers to the 24th of
Dec , and Liverpool to the 25th, both inclusive. They
were brought by the Patrick Henry, Captain Delano,
after a passage of twenty days. Capt. 11. sailed from
Liverpool on the 25ih and anchored in the Lower Bay
un the 14th.
Although the passage lias been made in the midst of
winter, the Patriik Henry has had a summer trip— !
light easterly winds, and a smooth sea the whole pas-1
sage, and not even a topsail was reefed until Monday I
last, when tire ship was off Nantucket, where there
was a moderate gale from the westward.
The commercial accounts are favorable. The sales
of cotton at Liverpool, during the week ending 21th
Dec. amounted to nearly 40,000 bales, and an advance I
of Ia jd. is noted. (
The C.i ish (jueen arrived off Cowes on the 20th
Dee. She left New York on the Ist of that month.
The Great Western arrived at Bristol on the 23d. She
left this city oti the 8:h.
‘1 tie papers abound with details respecting the sever
ity of the winter on the continent as well as in Eng
land.
The London pnprrs arc making an outcry about cer
tain sentences pa-sed by Justice Patterson. One was
on an “ unfortunate female” who snatched a bonnet
from the head of a frail companion and rut it up into
culls for her own sieves—sentenced to transput ration
for ten years although recommended to mercy by the
jury ; another was on :a servant itirl who stole nine
sovereigns and some valuable trinkets from her mis
tress —also transportation for ten years; and a third
on a sailor wlm stabbed another sailor, w ith intent to
kill— sentence, six months in the House of Correct on.
Certainly there appears a great lack of discrimination
in these judgments. Mr Justice Patterson, it seems,
is deaf as a post ; and his infirmity is very reasonably j
mentioned as disqualifying him for Ins important’
offi t*. I
Rear Admiral fS. J. Carden has published a long
letter in tho Times, all about the United Stales and our :
ships of war, and how nur ships are and always have
been manned by British sailors—how it was British
valor on board American ships that gained so many!
naval victories during the late war, Ac. Withal his
lei tor contains a plentiful sprinkling of ugly epithets, I
levelled against us poor sinful Yankees. Is not this
the same Captain Carden who commanded the Mace- j
doninn when slio was captured by the United States ?
The only ariiial at Liverpool, from the United
States, for the week ending the 24th of December, was
the Roscius from New York.
At Peris the ice formed in the Seine so rapidly and
floated down in such masse* that twenty barges laden
with w ine were crushed before measures could be ta
ken for their safety. Throughout England active
means were i progress to relieve the distress of the
poor by lilieral supplies of fuel, provisions, clothing,
blankets, Ac.

Miwmr.BTtß.—-Thi* week the market has been
! dull, snrl considerably less business done than the two
preceding ones, both in goods and yarns; although
I prices are without alteration, power-loom printers main

Tire shippers continue to purchase, but the country
houses are extremely flat, and will not purchase a piece
more than they require for orders. Domestic cloth
continues hail to sell, and manufactures manifest great
anxiety to sell even at a lower price than last week.

NOTES OF THE PASSAGE ACROSS THE
EVERGLADES.
Colonel Harney. 2d Dragoons, with Captain David
son. Lieuts. Rankin and Ord. 3.1 Artillery, Dr. Russell,
and myself started from Fort Dallas with 90 men and
sixteen canoes. We left on the 111) of December, at
night, and proceeded up the left prong of the Miami
Rive The night was very daik and rainy, nnd we
met with considerable difficulty in ascending on ac
count of the rapidity of the current and the shoal and
rocky bed of the river. About a mile above the forks
we came to a body of high saw grass, this continued
for about a mile and a half, when we came in open
view of the Everglades, and the grass became more
scattered. The pine barren was kept close on nar left,
until wc came lua small island on our left, when our
course liecame more Westerly ; thus we continue u i til
distant about eight miles from the mo ith of the river
when Capt. Davidson becoming separated from us we
halted to the leeward of an island which was entirely
overflowed, and waited until he came up. where the
night was passed in our open boats. It continued to
rain nearly all night, and our situation was any tiling
but comfortable.
Dec. s.—Rydav light this morning we were up and
at it with our puddles; our coarse was generally West-
South-West, hut this we varied according to the direc
tion of the channels, and nur depth of water, till about
1 o’clock; the men being very much fatigued, having
had to pull their boats thiough the mod and grass a
greater part of the wav. we insisted on John, our guide
carrying ns to some high land where we might en
camp, and give the men a little rest. The officers had
almost lost confidence in his knowledge of the country, |
as at one time he could not tell us in which direction .
the sun rose ; and as we concluded not to follow him
in the direction he was going any longer, he insisted
that he was right, and that his ohj ct was to carry us
where he could find the greatest depth of water, and
that he could carry us a nearer way, but that it was j
very shoal; which proved in the end to bo correct, as ‘
ho had not gone more than a few miles when it was i
wtth the greatest difficulty we coulJ move the boats.
The Col. called to him to stop, as he would go no fur- \
ther in that direction; but he insisted that the island
was not more than a mile distant, and the Colonel suf
fered him to proceed. Bure enough, contrary to the
expectations of all, he in a short time halted at a low |
turf of bushes, about a half a mile in circumference, !
which seemed to us all to be entirely flooded w ith wa
ter, but after penetrating about 300 yards we rame to a
magnificent little spot in its centre, about 150 yards in 1
circumference, here we found an old Indian camp ■
which evidently had been deserted for some months. !
It was encircled hy a number of shrubs of the wild
Pappaw ; and two large and curious wild fig trees, i
about ten feet apart, decorated its centre. This is a
remarkable tree; it first makes its appearance as the
creeper, and seizes on the largest tree it can find, con- :
tinning to encircle it in its meshes until it deprives it
of life when it feeds upon the decayed matter and be j
comes a beautiful tree. These had each attacked a
palmetto, and one of thorn was dead, but the top of the
other was still blooming in the centre, although com- ;
plctely suiiouiuled. We hailed, with a great deal of
pleasure, the touch of dry land, as we were wet to the
skin ; it having rained all day, and the wind blowing
from the North. As soon as it became dark, we kin- i
died a largo fire—dried ourselves—got a good supper,
eat it with a good deal of gusto —talked over what we
had undergone, and what we intended to do—stretched
ourselves on our blankets, and slept soundly and
sweetly, ‘till daylight warned us to be up and doing.
Dec. C.—After getting some hot coffee, again star
ted on our course. The day hascleared off beautifully,
arid wo are moving slowly and silently along, in mo
mentary expectation of falling in with some Indian
Cannes. Jilin can see from the lop of a tri e the field
j from which lie escaped, and we will come up to it
1 about 12 o’clock. He says it is only one day’s rsw
i from that place to where all the Indians are encamped,
j and we expect to have a devil of a fight when we get
i therc. Nothing now presents itself to view except one
! boundless expanse of saw-grass and water occasionally
j interspersed with little islands, all of which are over
flowed, hut the trees are in a gr;en and flourishing
state. No country that I have ever heard of hears any
| resemblance to it ; it set-ms like a vast sea. filled with
, grass ami green trees, and expressly intended as a re
treat for the ru-cally Indians, from which the white
man would never seek to drive them. We have plen
ty of water at present and go along with a great deal
iof ease. V e reached the island, as expected, about
12 o’clock. When vve rame in sight, the Colonel
took four canoes, with Lieut. Rankin, and went ahead,
hav ng first painted himself and men so much like
Indians, that they could scarcely, themselves, detect
the imposition. He directed Incut. Ord to follow with
the test ot the canoes, and Capt. Davidson, as he was
unwell, to remain behind w ith the large boats. 1 was
in the next canoe to Lieut. Ord, who as lie was turn
ing to give some order to his men, lost his balance,
arid such a pretty somerset “ I never did sec;” he cai
carried boat, provisions, ammunition, and guns all
with him. V\ lien bis head appeared on the surface of
the water he said to me, “ go ahead with the boats; I
inserted my haridkcrrhief in my mouth and evnpora
i ted. The order was to keep just in sight of the Colo
nel, and, in ease he should not be able to manage the
force on the island, lo come to his assistance; but the
delay threw me behind, and I soon lost sight of, and
j with the greatest difficulty found, the island. We had
! to wade through mud and water three ot four hundred
yards, up to our waists, before we gained dry land;
here wc found a corn field of about an acre, and the
I richest land I have ever seen, being one black heap of
i soil of endless depth This island is called from the
! Indian name of the wild fig. “ Hi-co-mo-thluecu.” It
lieing early we did not remain here long, but pushed
! °n to another island, about seven miles distant, the us
. ual stopping place of lire Indians, when they visit Sam
1 Junes, or go from his camp to tire Spanish Indians ;
I we arrived early in the evening, and had to wade 200
yards before wc gained a footing ; wo found here signs
of a few days old, where they had been cutting hushes.
I ascended the top of a fig tree with John, and lie poin
ted out to me our course, and the direction of the differ
ent islands. We could see, far to the 8o U th, the pine
barren skirting the Everglades, and the tops of the
grass and hushes burnt to make out the trail. The
island, Ho-co-mo-thlocco, bears about Enst-Soutb-Ea.-t
from this, and the island where we go to-morrow, about
South-West and by South. This island is railed
“ Efu-noc-co-chee.’ from a dog hiving died which was
left here ; it contains about half an acre of cleared
land, but has never been cultivated, and is used alone
as a camp ground.
Dec. Vh.~ Off again ; our course for a short dis
tance was about north, then changed it to north west,
and continued in this direction until we reached anoth
er Island which is called Cochokeynehajo , fmm the
name of an Indian who eleared and cultivated it. It
is distant from Efanoecochee about six miles, and its
course i-about north west. We found on this Island
the figure of an Indian drawn on a tree, and the figures
8 and 9, which is the first indication of awhile man’s
lieing with them. Being early when we arrived here,
tire Colonel contrary to the opinion of the guide, do.
teimined not to remain here until night, but took Lieut
Oan ahead with him, and two ranocs, to surprise the
next island. Following on with the rest of the boats
we had not gone more Ilians mile, when we lost tlx
trail of their boats, and continued to wander to every
point of the compass until late in the evening, when
we made out lo reach the Island from which we start
ed about sun-set, and found John who had returned
f„r us. Considered ourselves very fortunate to reach
’ (his Islam) again, a wc could not follow with any cer
.tain,J ottr tra 'l* f° r onc hundred yards. To tire wrest
! warJ of this Island, the main lody of water sseins to j
! change its course, and flow with some current to the ,
south-west, which induces u< to think we arc in the !
centre of the Everglades. It was late at night when
we reached the Island, where Lieut. Oitn had gone.
But notwitstan iingthe thousand channels which flow
ed and wound in every direction, and although it was
so dark that we could not distinguish land from water
John never once missed ihe track. Found on tins fo*
land, which is called by its owner I itaska. a large hut
built of cypress bark, ami undei it a bed made of hoards,
coming in play very timely and was quickly appropria
ted. It is the largest and richest Island we have yet
seen, and had variou vegetables growing on it, such
as pumpkins, beans, corn, dec.; and dee-tracks were
very numerous. Its course from Cochokeutichajo , N.
; N. West.
Dee. 8/4. We sh ill remain on I itaska until 4
o’clock this evening, when we will proceed to another
Island, which he irs north 10° west from this, where
we expect to surprise some Indians, as we can now set*
a large smoke in that direction. When we visit this
ourcourse will then change to the southward, and we
will m iko f >r their strong holds on the sea hoard.
Dec. 9/4.—Yesterday about 12 o clock, when some
were asleep and silent, awaiting the time of starting,
the Colonel called out from the top of a tier, that two
ranees were approaching the Island on the south side.
In a moment, all were up with their guns in hand :
the boats were silently approacliin :, and we being on
the north side, Lieut, Lankin was immediately order
ed to man four canoes, and move slowlv along to meet
them. Jdie grass wis so high that the Indians did
not discover him until within a few hundred yards,
when they immediate wheeled their canoes and made
oil*with all their st ength. But there was no eluding
our snake-l:ke boats, and our tire I soldiers. They
made the boats faiilv jump out of the water. When
within a short distance, and seeing the Indians ap
proaching a deep body of saw grass, our soldiers coin
menced a running tire and soon disabled one of the
men and overhauled him. The boats halted at the saw
grass and the Indians leaaped out ; hut our men were
as quick as they were, and pursued them through it
lor some distance to a pond, where they disabled an- j
other, and accidentally wounded a squaw, who was j
endeavoring to escape with her child on her back. In 1
another direction, they overhauled u squaw with a girl ,
about 12 yens old, and two small children ; making i
in all, eight persons. None o them were killed ; arid j
as soon as we could get them through the mud to the (
boats, we returned, (ml ilarncv was looking on at ,
the race from the top of a tree, and ninde the Island
ring with his cheering. As soon ns Lieut Ivankin
started, I got a canoe and f>l lowed on and joined in
the pursuit, hut did not got up before they had got into
the grass. IVhen we returned to the Island, the Colo
nel ordered rope to be made ready, and swung the two
warriors to the top of h tall tree, where they now hang,
“darkly painted on the crimson skv.” The Indians
reported that Clukika is on an Island five, miles from j
this with a strong force, and we will start about and <rk
to attack him. Captain Davidson lias been si k ever
since we started, and he is now so ill that it is feared
we will have to return on his account.
Dr. 10/h. —'Fhe squaw is dead ; she died about
12 o\ lock, and we buried her on the Island. Shortly
after, the other rquaw reported that another party was
coiling on the same track that they came. The Colo
nel sent out Lieut;. Rankin and Ord, (1 a company*
ing.) to intercept them, but after waiting until nearly
sun-set. wc had to return without meeting any ofthem.
As soon as the sun went down, the camp was broken
up, and we were again on the watei. The night was 1
very dark and rainy, and the guide could, with the
greatest difficulty, k *jp in the trail. When we wcie j
within a few miles of the Island, tin* (Colonel sent
Lieuts. Rankin and Ord ahead to surprise the Island, i
They did not reach it until smc time after sun rise ;
but sec! was the confidence of the Indians in their
own security, that our j arty wore not discovered until
they had crept up into iheir carr.p, and commenced
flung. One warrior was shot dead, and two warriors,
one bov, and five squaws and children taken piiaonrr*.
Chain ka, who was chopping wood, threw down his
axe and ran off how ling ; but his hour hid come;
notwithstanding his herculean strength, he could not
escape. Hall one of the Dragoons, pursued him alone
when all the men weieexhausted, sued and killed him,
took his scalp, and returned. Two warriors escaped,
and Lieut. Ord discovering their trail, pursued them to
another Island, about four miles distant, where there
were a number of squaws and tinea or four warriors.
On his approach, the Indians hoisted a white flag, and
calle I to John to come up ami talk ; but while he was
approaching with Lieut. Ord, ti * was shot through the
i thigh, and at the same time one of the Dragoons
(Allen) wf,s dangerously wounde . in the thigh, and
‘rumor in the leg. A great number of balls were fired
at Lieut Ord, but none struck him. In approaching,
the men had to wade about two miles in water a id
mud up to their hips; and when they came up, were
so much exhausted and their guns nearly all wet, that
they had to retire under the cover of a small s?ruh,
about 100 yards distant. When Col. Harney heard
the firing, he sent Lieut. Rankin and mvsclf with two
canoes to his assistance, and when we got within about
a mile of I icut. Ord, we me? J hn all bloody, who re
ported that one man was killed, and that they were
filing rapidly, and that we could not approach w ith
our canors. We immediately jumped out and hasten
ed forward as rapid as we could through the deep mud
and water. When we got up, Lieut. Ivankin attempt
ed to charge w ith his men, but three of them were
woun led at the first fire, and he was forced to retire
and await the arrival of Colonel Harney. The balls
flew thick around our heads, and the Indians behaved
with a great deal of coolness. Their object of firing
was to give the squaws time to escape. When Col.
Harney came up, we charged the Island, hut they had
all escaped, from ihe back part, and taken off most of
their plunder. The circumstance was very unfortu
nate to the expedition, ns the Indians who escape!
communicated the intelligence to the other Islands,
and put them on their guard. Shortly after our return
to Chakikas Island, a canoe was seen approaching
with two Indians in it. The Colonel immediately de
spatched Lieut. Rankin w ith two canors, to pursue
them; but before he got up they ha:l approached and
taken an Indian or &paniurcf , who was concealed in
the high grass, and hastened off—Lieut. Rankin pur
sued them closely for about three miles, and gained on
them so closely that a rifle was fired by the Indians,
and the ball passed very near Lieut R. Unfortunate
ly the boat dipped and the guns all got wet, and the
pursuit was discontinued. Wo arc now laying here
to give the men rest, as they have almost all given out,
having been in hot pursuit for several days. Col.
Harney went out about half an hour ago after Chuki
ka’s body, and discovered, a sail approaching, he hid
his canoes in the grass until they came up, and cap
tured one warrior and 6 squaws and children—which
mike our whole number of killed and captured, twen
ty-five. We have now crossed the long fabled and un
known Everglades at least as far as wo can go in this
direction. A large cypress swamp extends for many
miles along the border, running r.orth-ea l and south
west—the great resort for the Indians, where they
build their canors.
This evening, the Colonel had out two prisoners
exalted to the *>p of one of the look-out tiers, with
the body of Chaki/ca by their side. We found in
( hukiku'b camp a large quantity of plunder, consisting
of cloth, linnens, calicoes, ready made clothing, all
kinds of tools, powder, dec, &,c.; and bad un auction
of them, which amounted to upwards of S2OO. The
articles were stolen from Indian Key a! the time of the
massacre. We also got a fine barge, and a great quan
tity of conti.
Dec. 1 \/h —Our tent or shed was pitched l aG night
within a short distance of the tree on which C/iakika,
was suspended. The night was beautiful, arid the
bright rising moon displayed to my view as I lav on
my bed, the gigantic proportions of this mice great and
much dreaded warrior. He is said to have been the
largest Indian in Florida, and the sound of his very
name to have been a terror to his tribe. We l.ave
among the captives his mother, sister and wife. Loft
Chakikas Island about 10 o’clock this morning, arid
are now returning as lar as Intasku, in i south-easter
ly direction, when we will change our course to the
south-mars and make for the sea.
Dec. 12 th. —We continued our course to the South-
East until wc passed Intaska , when we changed our
direction one point to the West of South, and encamp
ed, at sunset. on an island of about three acres in ex
tent. Met with nothing here except an innumerable
host of mosquitoes. The sister of Chnkiku informed
us that there were three Spaniards in the Everglades,
who supplied the Indians with salt and ammunition ;
one of them. Domingo, advised them to attack Indian
Key, and insured their success. Started about I 1
e clock this morning in a South West direction, and
had not goat mure than five mil s, when we approach
ed a small island, or, which we had no idea that there
wcie Indians, but on coming up wc found a large yaw 1
boat, killed two Indian men. and took one old squaw
and seven children prisoners. Lieuter ants Rankin
and Ord hurried on to an island about two miles dis
tant. where they found a great number of palmetto huts
very well thatched, and a number of phmtins and ba
nana trees, but the lndnns ha(i gone some lime be
fore. The squaw could talk English very well, and
informed us that 4 women had gone to an island, ft
short distance off to dig potatoes, and the Col. sent a
Seij ’ant with a few men after them, but could not
fit and them. We remained until 4 o’clock in the eve
ning, we saw a hov approaching, who hid been fish
ing *, the boats laid in the grass until he came near
when they came out took Ifim without a y resistance.
Left a sergeant, with two bout?, at this island, to wait
until the women came up, and we are now on our way
to the next island, which is four or five miles dist* t.
The island has turned out to he the town Lieut. Ran
kin visited this morning, and not more than two miles
distant.
D:C. 12/4.—This morning has come, and the Ser
jeant returned without finding the squaw. The Colo
nel sent Lts. Rankin and Ord ahead, tilts morning, to
an island whic h is almost in our course and we are now
following in a Southerly directi m. The day is rainy
and disagreeable. We arrived this evening at another,
where we rncamn *d and also passed one on our way.
Dec. 1 1/4. We have st rtedncainoii our journey,
and expect to reach the bend of Shriek lilccr to-d iy,
and to-morrow get a sight of the big water. Thank
God we wont have to wide to another island, although
there arc several in our way. The Indiana may as
sault and give us a crack before we get out, which
would annoy us very much in our present incumbered
state. This is the prettiest day we have had since
starting. I forgot to notice the death of poor Ai.t.kv
who was wounded, he died on the evening of tile 11th,
and on the m irning of the 12th, was buried on Cha
kika\s island with the honors of war. lie is the only
one of our party wc hive left in tile glides as yet.
Dec. 1 nth. —We reached the head of the river, the
Indian* call Puncha , about 4 o’clock yesterday eve
ning, and hailed it with three cheers. We have now
accomplished what has never been done by wlrte men.
i’he head of the river was at first clicked up with cane
and weeds, but we had not gme more than a mile
when it opened out most beautifully into a broad an I
navigable river. Continued down if till late at night,
hut tlie guide loosing his way we went ashore on a
high bluff, and got our break hist. We shall reach the
sea by 12. We have been twelve dav* and twelve
nights crossing, lw a* bed the nmu'h of the nver about
halt after tweho. Its course was about West, and
empties into the s- aby two or three mouths. ‘J’ e
bars are very shallow’, ami not navigable for steam
boats. Tnis is the only outlet of tile water of the Kv.
erg lade* on this side of the IVninsuU. We did not
remain long at tlw mouth, but rigged our sails and
went on about sixteen miles and encamped on a point
of the beach ; here wec iught a nurnhei of oppossutn*.
which seemed to he the only inhabitant. Too sun
set on the sea most beautifully, and threw its variega
ted rnys over the dense forrest of tnanagrove whi ii
bound the whole coast.
D c 16/4. We remained .ice un ii about 12 o’clock
to-day, and I amused myself collecting the heuuM'ul
shells w hich cove the beach. Wc reached Cape Sa
ble, the niNst Southern point of the Territory, about
f> o’clock, an f the men are bieicd in buil.’i ig tiros and
forming the camp.
Dec. 17/4.—Here at Cape Sable, is the site of old
Fort Poinsett, established by Surgeon (renl. Lawson.
Flic breast works are made of sand. The prospect is
very nr tty, as you can see a number of K. vs to the
Southward. Chakika's wife informs me that this
used to he the great resort of the Indians when on their
fishing and turtle excursions, as well as among the
neighboring Key-. We have been laying here all day
in the sand ; the day has been very warm.
Dec. 18/4.—Lieuts. Ord and Rankin went to an
Island yesterday, about seven mile* distant, and they
have i.ot yet returned. The officers have returned,
and we left the Capelins evening (18th,) and travell
ed on until late, when wc anchored under the lee of
some nameless Key, and fastened on to an old turtle
crawl.
We spent here the most disagreeable night we have
had since starting ; having to sleep in the open boats,
piled up with squaws and children, and the wind blow
ing very cold Loin the northwest. However we
weathered it out, and started very early on the 19th,
and at night encamped on Mufacumbru in sfoht of Li
llian Key, where we are now encamped. On flirting
from the camp, Lieuts. Rankin and Ord w ere sent
ahea I with tire small canoes on a nearer trac k. We
hear they have reached Indian Key. as the Colonel
sent a boat there l.u-t night, lie has now gone up
himself to charter a vessel, or make some other ar
rangement for our conveyance to K y Biscay uc. The
labors of our expedition, 1 think, arc over, and v\c will
soon have accomplished the most arduous, dangerous,
and successful expedition that has ever been underta
ken in Florida. Every thing teemed to operate favor
ably towards us. We invariably had a daik night to
aid us, whenever we intended to surpiisv an Indian
cam p.
■Dec. 20/4.—Wc are now on board the sloop Reform
, on our way to Key Biscayne. Well, wc are once
more safe at our post.

In consequence of the late severe weather, frosts,

four o’clock yesterday morning, and swept seiy ihiug

a great many persons have hern dtowned. All the la
