Wo learn from a highly respectable source,
that information hail reachoil Head-Quarters at
Columlms on the llltlr iitst., of an engagement
xvliich had taken place ilcm* Roanoke between
a party of Indians, supposed about two hundred
in number, and <Jnpi. Ganitouy’s Company from
Gwinnett—Captain (». was wounded and sev
eral of his men lulled—the loss of the Indians
uot known.
During the last week, Maj. Lomav’s detach
ment, consisting of live companies of f. Slates
troops, with a large baggage train, laden with
m in's, amunilion and prov isions, passed through
this place, on their march to Port Mitchell.—
On Sunday morning, a small detachment, say of
about two companies, went through. We mi-
tieiMauti there are yet to pass us, for the same
destination, three or four hundred marines, and
two companies of artillery, they will probably
arrive to-day.
