“TALLAHASSEE, JAN.* 14
“The Legislative Council have just passed a
la w. uuiiinrisr.g the Governor to call out the mil*
iti.i by draft, and to receive Volunteers ; hut it
will bo some time before any effective force can
lie assembled on our frontier, for as yet, we hate
no arms or suiitnuiiuioti. Gov. Eaton has scut
tho Adjutant-General to Augusta, for arms, but
it is impossible to say when they will get hero.
Provisions are also wanting, to,suhsist the army
after it is raised. Gov. Eaton has nuthuized
me to say, that men aud arms will be gladly le-
ceiveti in the Territory from any place. The pre
vailing opinon among the Officers of the Army,
that the 8emim>le Indians are to be subdued
by a small force, is entirely erroueous. Tbev
are commanded by Powell, a half breed, as
brave a man as evei lived, nnd wko, in the late
haul •, proved himself to be a good Gcneril, to
which Gen. Clinch and Ins regulars can hear
testimonv- He says he can hold his present posi
tion ttsainrt iTio United State, 5 years; and if ov
er he i. p rniiit d to get tut’ h on hero part of
• t.o Peninsula, it is a matter <•! some doubt if the
w hide of ihe U. S. Army can get him out. Some
time ago. the winou ami childreu, iu their cano
es, were sent South, uearCnpe Sable and Ten
Keys, no doubt to prepare the Comity Root, of
which a Flour is unde, aud upon which they are
accustomed to live. I very much fear that my
plantation and negroes are destroyed, for st! the
t/ie time 1 left home, nothing was known of the
Indian war, and I have littic doubt but that some
of them have been sent down on the Cape of
Florida. Every settlement oil thc Keys are iu
danger; even Kay-West when I left i\ could
have been taken by 50 Indians, tile town, and
every one iu it destroyed, as the troops had all left
there. I expect every day to hear that all is de
stroved at New River aud Cape Florida. 1 think

solution, which was adopted without a dissenting

of those n I10 go, and as it is necessary lhat means
should lie raised of a pecuniary nature, to equip
a company to be raised, say iu oue week, in ad
dition to the companies already organisod—wc,
the citizens of ALicou, believii;g that from three
tc five thousand dollars will be sufficient to effect
: such object, agree that we will adopt any course
tqat may be devised for the raising of such an a-
mount as a loan to said company, they pledging
the in iunt which may fa I due to them from ihe
I General Government for the rcpayineut of the
saiJ s un of rnoii-y. And believing also that thc
raising of said sum of money will he more easily
