Charfefonvn, The (mall pox continues among the Creek Indians, and has carried off a great many in the towns near the Albama fort. All accounts represent the Creeks as well inclined and peaceable. Letters from Panfacola and Mobille inform us, that they are now convinced none of the Chadaws were concerned in the attack made on Major Loftus j those Indians are likewise *ery peaceable: fome months ago, when a breach between us and the Creek Indians seemed not far distant, the Cuffa* daw or Stinking Lingo Indians, who lived under protecti on of the Creeks, unwilling to be brought into a war, left their habitations and went towards the Chadaw countryj they are now fettled on the branch of Mobille river where the Tombigbee fort is situated, on the route from Mobille to that garrison, and have behaved in the molt friendly manner to such Engliih as have had occasion to pass that way, and it is thought will be of great service in awing such of the French ified Chadaws as may be inclined to do mifehief, On Sa turday the firft party of French protefUnts, who lately ar rived here, confiding of 21 men well armed, under the com mand of an Ensign, with a few of their women, will set out of town with two waggons loaden with their baggage and am munition ; and provilions for the march, in order to begin their settlement, and prepare for the reception of the remain der, who arc to follow in about 3 weeks. We hear that Capt. Calhoun,’ with a detachment of rangers, has orders to meet them an J give them every kind of auTilance on their firft arri val at the place where their town is to be built, The zeal, diligence and abilities of Charles Oarth, Esq. our Provincial Agent in Qreat-Britain, has given upiverfal fatisfadion to thelegiilatureofthis province, and hisafiiduity has obtained very great advantages to its commerce and na vigation. The Honourable the Commons Houfeof Aflembly “ha c voted the said gentleman, the thanks of that Houle •** for his diligent attendance on, and application to the bu fi.iefs recommended to his care and management in Creat- Britai 1, in behalf of th inhabitants of this province,** which the Honourable Mr Speaker, has transmitted to him by or der of the House.
