From infor ms (ion received from Pensacola ami Ne-.v 'Orleans, I ; have no doubt bat that St. Marks is in possession of the Indians.

The benefit which would-result from them, must be obvious to every reflecting, mind- Let this zeal and interprising spirit be persevered in by future legislators, arid we niy conceive how much this state will be benefjtted and (improved before 20 years.
