COPY. “ liar Department, June 18, 1838 "G extreme*—It may be agreeable to yon to know, that with n view to prevent or suppress any hostilities .among the Cherokee Indians, a Brigade of Tennessee Volunteers, amounting to from one thousand to twelve hundred men, one half mounted, and the other half infantry, will rendezvous at Athens on 7th uf July, end proceed immediately to the Cherokee country.— Brevet Brig. Gen. M ood lias been assigned tolhe com mand, and lias been authorized, should circumstances require it, to call for additional force and to take all ne cessary measures, fur the suppression of hostilities a- tnong the Indians, should any ocaur, and for their im mediate removal. •‘Very respectfully, •‘Your obedient servant, “LEW. CASS." To the Georgia Delegation in Congrpss. Progress of the Creek Campaign. At the time we now' write, nothing definite lias been heard from the Georgian Army since its arrival at Roa noke ; hut presume, before this time, it has entered the heart of the enemy’s country. Our anxiety for in telligence of its further progress, is intense. It was the iuteutiot; of the Commander ill Chief, we learn, to cross the Army again into Alabama, at or be low Roanoke, and there form a junction with the Ala bama troops. Having left a sufficient guard all along on iheCliattalioochy. to prevent the crossing of the Indians, it was his intention to enter the Nation and scour it from one extremity to the other. Several companies of troops have beep left at Co lumbus, to protect that city in case the enemy should he driven upon it from below. It is repotted that since the Army got under ninrch, a large body of Indians have come to Port Mitchell and given themselves up. The report seems plausible enough: Our opinion has always been, that the Creeks Would only be hostile so long as they could maintain -that attitude with impunity; and that when a force suf ficient to overawe and chusliso them should be collect* ed on their borders, they would doff* the war dress, as sume the garb of peace, and profess friendship. Re cent advices justify’ this opinion. Whether the war is ended or not, prompt and cuor. getic measures ore called for on the part of our gov ernment. If it is not now ended, it cannot be too rigorously prosecuted : and the sword should not he slirntlied, until every red skin is placed west of the Mississippi. To those Indians taken with arms in their hands, we trust in quarters will he shewn; and that they will he made to fee), uu the spot, the awful siiiutnariness of /hair own mode of warfare Those who give themselves -up, should have a fair trial—if innocent, let them be set at liberty—if guilty of murder, rape, and pillage, let them he hanged! On the other hand.tr. those who have been friendly all through the disturbances, and assisted in quelling them, every encourage ment should be given, anil the spoils of the hosti.es be divided among them ns lawful prize. The Chiefs taken in arms, we want to see made examples of—they yhould he hung as high as Ilamaii, their property eonfis* cated, and their ashes scattered to the winds! And those who, like old Ncah Micro, have pursued an equivocal course, should pass through a severe ordeal before they be allowed to escape. We have no doubt the war will soon be brought to a clo e: and piubably without any .general battle.

The bodies of 13 individuals, men women andcliildicn. have been found horridly butchered. The Indians had been »eeu in considerable number*. It was conjectured there were ut least 100 warriors, having their women and children with them, and 60 or 70 horses. It is supposed tho Indians crossed the Chattnhonchy ubout25 inilea below Roanoke, mid were pursuing the old trail through Baker and Thomas counties to Flo- »rida.
