The Montgomery Republican contains two talks or memorials from the commis sioners of the chiefs of the Creek Nation, for tfic perusal of the citizens of the Unit ed States. They declare in these papers that they are determined not to dispose of their loads either iti exchange or by 'Sole. Since writing tlie above, tve have infor mation front a source that may be relied upon, that notwithstanding these talks and memorials a treaty tvas commenced with the Creeks at Broken Arrow, near l'ort Mitchell, on the 1st inst. by our com missioners—that the Indians have met tlicm and an entry has been made on the business of the treaty; and although little has been done from which inferences may I>e drawn as to the result, vet jt is believed that it Will be favorable to the mission. The object of the treaty is" to obtain a ces sion of the territory occupied by those In dians within the limits of the State of Georgia, and their removal to lands provi ded for them by the United States beyond liie Mississippi. We arc also assured that the Indian chief Gen. McIntosh is fa vorably disposed to the treaty. Late accounts from Columbia, received W Charleston, states that Henry Shultz Has applied to the Legislature of S. C. for 9 loan of 850,000, and a Committee has reported favorably for him—but that it is Uncertain what will be the .event. A di- ficcncy of $14,000 is reported as against the Treasury ofthc State, and it is said that if the appropriations called for are made,the deficiency for tho next year will be from 150 to 200,000 dollars. This is ex clusive ofthc profits of the Bank which are reserved as a sinking fund. The Charleston Delegation have had a mee ting and agreed to a bill excluding the City Guard from voting, and passed some jijevere penalties against bribery and cor ruption—they also refused to recommend an alteration of the time of holding .the election for Intendant and Wardens.

COMMODORE PORTER. The following extracts of letters receiv ed at Philadelphia, furnish a more circum stantial account of Commodore Porter’s proceedings at Porto Rico, than received in Baltimore. The following additional particulars of Commodore Porter’s proceedings nt Por to Rico, are from a letter rt&elvcd in this city, dated St. Thomas, Nov. 1G. “On the morning of the 12th the squad ron sailed, and early on thd13th, came to anchor under Snake Island, (uninhabit ed.) Here the boats were all hoisted out, and a draft of 200 men, for an expedition destined ngainst Foxardo, in consequence of the representation made to Commodore Porter by Captain Platt, of his treatment by the authorities of that place. At 2 A. M. Commodore Porter and Captain Dal las, having repaired on board the Gram pus, Captain Sloat, she, in company with tho Beagle, got under weigh with the draft of men, having the boats of the John Ad ams in ( toW, she remaining behind. At sun rise the vessels were off the harbour, and at forty minutes past eight, the Gram pus anchored within musket shot of a bat tery ol'two longeiglitcens, advantageously placed on the top of a rocky bluff. The boats being manned mid their flags hoist ed, the launch of the Grampus command ed by lieutenant Pendegrnss, with thirty men, including lieutenant Bartou, and 13 marines, pulled directly towards the fort Having effected n landing, rather in the rear of the guns, they marched immediate ly to the fort but the Spaniards did not await their arrival, having fled ere our men could attain the summit ofthc lull—thus in possession of a battery, which properly managed, should have sufficed to beat off a much larger force, the guns which were found loaded and primed, with matches burning, were spiked with files, and the rammers broken; During this time the other boots, with Commodore,. Porter and Captain Dallas were not idle, but made good their land ing at a beach about a quarter of a mile to the right of the battery, where being join ed by the launch of the Grampus, the men were formed on shore. A guard of ma rines having been detailed to take charge of the boats, the remainder proceeded to wards the town of Faxardo, which is situ ated two miles in the interior and contains about 100 houses. At the distance of one mile from the shore, two nine pounders had been mounted, where a piece of mar shy ground rendered the place in some degree defensible—but as at the fort, our countrymen were not tinder the necessity of giving any very sanguinary proof of their valour, the Spaniards having desert ed their post. The guns were spiked and the troops continued to advance some dis tance further, when they were halted and a flag of truce despatched, to demand suitable apology for the insult, offered to the American flag in the person of Capt Platt, for which one hour was allowed. The civil and military commandants accompanied the flag in its return, when they were informed by Commodore Por ter, of the object which bad. caused the present rather unceremonious visit, and that a suitable apology for the treatment which Captain l’latt and his officers had met with, together with a promise that in future, the American flag should be treat ed with the utmost respect, was absolutely necessary, or. lie should instantly proceed to hostilities. These terms beirig fully acceded to, and Captain Platt having ex pressed himself satisfied with the conces sion made, the men were marched back to the beach and re-embarked. The Inn ding and re-embarkation of the troops, to gether with a march of four miles, under a tropical sun, the thermometer standing above 85 deg. in-the shade, was performed in the short period of two hours and fifty minutes, the Grampus being under weigh within that |>eriod from the time of her having anchored, with her boats hoisted in and stowed.” “ St. Thomas, Nov. 16th, 1824. “,We have this morning returned from an expedition of an entirely different nature from those in which we are usually enga ged, and which may yet be productive of important results, as it proves that the Commodore has determined, (very pro perly, in my opinion) to resent promptly the insults of the Spanish authorities; with out “waiting for the tardy interposition of our diplomatists at home. Sometime since the warehouse of Messrs. Cubot, Baily &, Co. was robbed of goods to a consider able amount. As a strong suspicion ex isted that tho property had been carried to some of the small towns of Porto Rico, the schooner Beag So, Captain Platt, sailed umcdiatcly, with one ofthc clerks attneh- I to the firm, for the purpose of giving nformation to the Spanish authorities, Inch it wnssnnguincly anticipated, would induce to the speedy recovery ol the _nods. Having arrived at Faxardo, t’orto Rico, Captain Platt and Lieut. Ritchie etc seized, and, notwithstanding they produced their commissions anil orders, ere detained under guard from 9 P. M. II 5 P. M. The only cause assigned for this flagrant outrage of our neutral rights was, that they were dubious of the vessel beingreally an American ship of war,even insinuating that she was It pirate. On tho 12th inst. the Grampus sailed from it. Thomas, the Beagle being off the har bor. She had scarcely got out when a large man of war was discovered standing towards her, which seen proved to bo the John Adams, bearing the broad pendant of Commodore Porter, Mho ordered the chr. to anchor in company with him out side the harbor.” From the National Intelligencer, 8th inst■ FROM MEXICO.—The Government ofthc Republic.of Mexico has decided that, in relation to thcDccrecof Congress, concerning Colonization, it will lie neces sary for those who may go there to avail themselves of the said decree, to provide themselves with a passport from the Min ister of Mexico, residing near the Govern ment of the United States, or from its commercial agents, whenever they shall be appointed.

THE NIGER.—The opinion of Mr Dupuis, in his recent work on Aslmntee is that the principal part of the waters of the Niger is discharged through the E gyptian Nile. He heard among the Afri- cans but one opinion oh the subject. The ,l Niger was well known to the Moslems at Ashantees by the name of Jollibat They reported, that it takes its rise in the chain ofmountains Northwest of the capital of Kong, from which it is calculated that its fountain is in about 11 deg 16 minutes N latitude, and 7 deg 10 minutes West longi tude from Greenwich. Its track is traced from three ■ niountaius to Timbactoo thence it flows Easterly to Ghou: From Ghou it enters Marrou, paging through Cornimen, Kaby and Zamberma, as it inclines in a Southerly direction to the Youry and the Lake of Noufy.
