If the Indians do not romply with tbs terms of tile Treaty, it is General Scott’s intention to make them do so, peaceably if they will, or forcibly, if necessary. The Florid} ms, not in the field, are generally retiming in their inline* in the viciqiiv of Mican- opy and elsewhere, expecting, as they*have been assured, that tile liulims will comply with llieir agreement with Gen. Gaines. Gen. Gaines set om from Fort Draue oil the •lib iustaut, on bis way to Tampa, via Tallahas see and St Marks. ’l'cxas. The Toxinns have declared their Independence. The Declaration is a spirited nnd able production, and sets forth their act in n clear nnd patriotic light. Gen. Scott arrived t|! Fort Draue on tbo day before. The agreement made by Gen. Gaines with the Indians, with the terms of which we arc furnished by Captain Marks, is lo the following effect—that ibe Indians and llieir chiefs should retire beyond the Oiiilhl-iroochee, and there remain p. neeahly until the wishes of the Government are known— lh,.t commissioners would he sent them by the proper authorities to express those wishes, tiud j thiii the chiefs should atseinli c at any time and i place, when ami where they should be required.

From the liultindre American. A highly interesting aud important expedition was made last summer by Got. Dodge and a troop of dragoons from Fort Leavenworth.— Got. Dodge’s journal, with otlier documents re lating to the expedition, has receutly been pub lished by order of the Senate, beiug iu the form of a Report from tho Secreta y of war. Taking with him force companies of Uuited States Dragoous, amounting iu all to about one hundred and twenty men, and two swivels {three pounders.) Col. D. set out On the 2i)th of May, ascended the Missouri to the inoulhol the Platte nr s’hallow river, thcuco up tho Piatte to its i Forks, thence up the South Fork to the Rocky Mountains; theuee southerly along the edge of the Moiiuinius in the Arkansas river, (the boun dary line between the United States an i .Mexico thence down the Arkansas, aud hack to Furt Leavenworth, which be reached on the 15th of September without accident or o isfortuno (ex cept tho loss of one man by sickness) having inar ched sixteen hundred miies. On tho route the expeditiou passed through various tribes of Indians, fr. queutiy halting in their villages. The talks had w ith them in their Councils are given iu full in the Journal, and show imt only tho most friendly disposition to- w aides ihe liiiitcd States; nud a great reverence and respect lor them, hut a williugucss to be in fluenced by them, as some of them have been al ready —in tbeir relations amoug themselves. Col. Dodge thinks that if an agency were es tablished hv our government at the Fort aud tra ding establishment of Megsres. Beat and tit. Vraiu on tho Arkuusas River, one hundred and thirty miles from tile Rocky .Mountains, peace might ill a few years be restored among all the diflerem tribes iu this portion of the country. This posi tion possesses he thinks, several advantages which recommend it as a point for establishing iiu agency. It is a central point where tbo Indians near the Rocky Mouutuius all collect. Being morever close ;o the boundary hue, the move ments of the Mexicaus could bo watched, aud the earliest intelligence thereof communicated, Gencial Gaines, in transmitting the letter aud journal of Col. Dodge, to the Adjutant Gen. at Washington, speaks in the highest praise ol tho su*es< of tho expedition, in wn.ch. ho says.— ‘tinauy nations oflndians woie conferred with, and most judiciously impressed w ith the justice, humanity ma^nainity aud poicer of our govern ment aud couutry.” Ho adds that it requited great vigliance, care, and prudence, on the part of the Colonel aud his Officers, aud coustaiit at tention, obedience, aud fiedlity, on ihe part of the men, to have conducted such au expeditiou with so many favorable results, to the servic - to ibe ludj ids and tbe frontier inhabitants. Mount Pleasant, March 16, 1836. To Colonel Howell Cobb, Sir—It aflotils mo a considerable) degree of pleasure so early to have an opportunity of detail ing to, and through you to my fellow-citizens of Houston county aud of Georgia, (ho circum stance* which have brought us so much earlier to our homes thau was expected by you or ourselves when wo left. Upon our arrival at Dublin, I met wi»h Capt. '. H Kenan, oil the lltli day of February, and it was there deemed advisable by him to proceed oq without awaiting the arrival of tho other troops that were to rendezvous at that place. From the solicitations of Captains Malpue and Douglas. J awaited their arrival at Hawkinsville, Pulaski County, and proceeded with them aud Captain Swiney’s command to Picolata. Capt. Kenan, iu consequence of being alone with his command, was enabled to get to Picolata four or five days earlier than we did. Ou our arrival at Black creek, thirty miles from Picolata, wo met some of Cnpt. Keuan’s command ou tbeir return home, they were asked by us, generally, the cause of their return, they gave us in answer, “that Gen. Scott had required them to muster in as regular soldiers, am! they had not becu informed by the Executive, or otherwise, that these requisitions would ho made of them, and thought it au indig nity ofiercti to Georgia Volunteers to make such requirements of them, and, therefore would uolbe mustered iuto service.” 1 w ent oil with my command to Picolata, and on the next day after our arrival, Lieutcuaui Chambers, of the Uuited States’ army, crossed tbe river St. Johns, fromGcii. Scott’s quarters, to muster us into service. My company was the first, aud I accn.dingly had them paraded and ii- sed every exettiou that 1 was capable of to re concile the feelings of my company to come under tbe army regulations of the United States troops, aud reminded them lhai ihe houorof our coiiuty and Statu was cou'-erncd iu their movements; that l>y refusing to go iuto service, they might blacken their own characters au'i the county and Slate from which they came. 1 then requested of Lieut Chambers the privilege of reading lo m v company (he laws and regulations they would bo bound to obey, and when i thought these se vere, would stop reading and give to it the best construction 1 was able to do. After reading the army regulations over, I handed the roll of my company to Lieut. Chambers, and out of fifty- seven men, officers and privates, there were hut twenty-five, including the officers, that would be mustered iuto the set vice. I was then told .‘>y i.ieut. Chambers that my company could not bo received; I bad been previously informed by Cap! Kenan that he had been received by Gen. Scott with twenty-seven incu ; 1 therefore determined to make a tender of those that had agreed lo fol low me. to Gen. Scolt. I took with me the Cor nel ot my eompauy, Cullen Webb, and crossed tbe river, and appeared before Geu. Scolt in per son. 1 met Gen. Scolt on (bo wharf, and stated to him my exerlious to muster my command into the service, aud what 1 had been able to do, which statements were corroborated by oue of his own officers who had witnessed the whole transaction.

Under these circumstances 1 left Picolata—it is evident I co uld remain 110 longer. It would have boon a source of the greatest gratjficirtiuu tome and my command, after this, to have joined Geu. Gaines, but, from tho best in formation, our route lay through a barren and ve ry sparsely populated country, that had already been overrun Isy the Indians, nud iu which it was impossible to procure provisions for ourselves or horses—ihc distance to Geu. Gaiues was about ninety miles. My company was badly aymed, having among us but about thirty brace of pistols aud ctigli a sword. We understood at Black creek that Geu Gaiues wai engaged upon the Wiiblncoochee with the Indians, aud I trust be fore this tiino it.; lias conquered them. 1 can procure, if j.t is necessary, one htliid.'ed certificates to tbe correctness of tlieso statements. Under 'hese circumstances. I deemed it advisable to re turn home.
