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 indemnity. .ThePresent recommends npre- Jfir afr’S S?*$ ZSSSZT' Ai iiiL next, otticesn titc lawful hours of sale, theJotiow- ' oec. i. lie u enuetcuOy uie oeuate autt House of Re- ing Lois of Lund, or so much thereof as tail satisfy the ! presenlaticcs of the State of Georgia in General Assent- Tax for the ytar 1534, and costs, nz: oty met, aud u is hereby enacted by the authority of tht same.
