Latest from the Seminole War.
The Tampa Peninsular, of Saturday last is at
ii,d, bringing intelligence of further inhuman
itcheries in isoutliern'Florida, and latest accounts
fthe progress of the war. They were brought to j
r»aipa by the U. S. schooner Experiment, arrived
. night of the 25th. and coming direct from Col.
grown, mar be considered official. The following
-a connected and authentic narrative as made out
die report of that officer:
A «<H»d party, consisting of a corporal and five
nvat-'s. with two a a gems and twelve mules, were
.red upon by some fifteen Indiana, about four
-s from Fort Deynaud, on the road leading from
u- post io Fort Tliompson, on the morning of the
<th January. As far as known, only one man, |
••riva’c Peterman, of company C. escaped; he made |
> war to Fort Demand and reported the attack. ;
• Vfti.iiaii received a slight wound in the calf of his I
Lieut’s. Earned and Garner, with about j
air v-five enlisted men, were immediately order- ,
e: Pol. Drown to march to the place where the
. was attacked ; rescue the wounded or dead j
vs, and if aiiv signs of the Indians should be j
ai pursue and chastise them.
Earned returned and reported Ihut hr |
found the two wagons, loaded with Cypress poles, j
tii twelve mules dead. All the mules were j
g;,,t beliimi the ears—indicating that they were
deliberate!' killed, and not by a general random
s hot. The wagons and harness were uninjured,
v signs of tiie missing men, neither blood or dead
or even any trace of them were discovered.
The Lieutenants scoured about the scene of action
aboui three miles, when, seeing no signs of
•;,er Indians or soldiers, owing, probably, to the
•uffitv "i" water covering the country round
~iu, Lieut, let rued returned and reported to Col.
iwn as above. i
The unfortunate party was armed, but owing to
; -fact that no Indian signs had been discovered i
d ’ ri-gion since the demonstration of the 20tli,
v felt quite secure -believing that the Indians <
~! g.ine further South—and, consequently, the at- i
k was quite unexpected.
The attack was lead by Okchan, sub-chief, who ,
.•saspcraied at the destruction of Ids village by
troops, which occurred a short time since. <
|r -a;n • paper also contains authentic intelli- i
«of the affair ou the Miami river, of which i
; art had already reached us by the William and ■ I
.’ -an, at Charleston. j i
About tiie Sth or 10th iust., three men were en- ;
t ed in digging Compta, on the Miami river, a ]
r miles from its month, when they were fired (
aby a body of Indians. Two of the men were ■
tied, the other wounded ; he, however, made his I
<-.;ape. The corps' s were scalped, and mutilated 1
the most horrid manner. One of the deceased i
was an aged man, named Peter Johnson; the name i
of the other unknown. j
The s-.-ttlers in that region, upon being apprised j
f the farts, immediately abandoned their homes. ;
and most of them are now in Key West. Three j .
Indians w.-rc —it on Hilliard's Key, three days at'- i >
t»r the massacre.
Capt. Costa, of the selir. Florida, who brought (
* ,- intelligence to Tampa, speaks of great excite- !
meat among the settlers on the Miami, who had 1
i -akett their homes to find a secure retreat from
scalping knife of the blood-thirsty savages.
After such evidences of the blood-thirsty charac
■ rami determination of the savages, the people of
Florida, it might well he supposed, are more deei-
I I than ever on their utter extermination or re
■ val from the State. From a communication in
same paper we learn that the people at the ;
head of Manatee river, a region very much ex- i
d, have taken every precaution to place them- *
-■ Ires in a state of defence, should they receive an i
a'tack from the Indians. They'have a horse coni- i
,!iv organized, under the command of Capt. John I
Addison, Sen’r., who only await a recognition by i
government to commence oil’ensive measures. J I
The Fort Meade eons -pendent of the I'enimidoir j (
also breathes the same spirit. Scouts, iu which all j i
the available force of t apis. Hooker and Lesley's j <
companies is engaged, an- dailv s,-nt out, and the ! i
writer adds: i
Our boy s are in high spirits, as we are just on i
the eve of leaving for a ten days’ scout; branch- i
ing out from tiie Creek in the direction of Char- \
iotte Harbor, and from there to Charley Ahapoka
Lake, thence iu direction of Fort Bessinger, Ki— i
siimni, Alt is believed by those well used in ,
Indian hiding places, that at Lake Ahapoka we <
may tind some of the red skins, if so, never fear |
but that tv.- will give a good account of ourselves, i
and secure them eternally. Our desire here is to |
hr allotted to beard Billy in I.is den.
The Pen. \-■-/ , also contains letters from Sena- j
. r Vulce and Mallory, at Washington, by which j
appears that they are doing all they can to causi \

A Divorce Case i:: Philadelphia.
A case is about to ' brought before the Corn
• mon Pleas, in Philadelphia, which promises rich
developments, in’etcsting to the literary world.
j The facts, as gi. cn by a New York paper, areas
follows:
A gentleman of this city, of high literary emi
nence, married his second wife, a Carolinian’, some
ten or twelve years since, and went to reside in
( ltarlcston, 8. ('., where her property lav. After
residing there for some six or seven years, for some
reason unexplained, the gentleman wished for a
divorce, and requested the lady to go to Pennsyl
vunia, in which State his object would be more
readily obtained. The lady would not consent,
and sometime afterwards the gentleman sent her a
document to sign, she then being at Schooley’s
-Mountain, N. J., w hich document, it is alleged,
was an avowal written by her husband, a- on her j
part, asserting that she had “ wilfully, maliciously,
and without cause, abandoned him.” The lady re- :
fused to sign, saying that such was not the case; !
in fact, that the statements made iu the document ;
were unequivocally false, and she would not be ac- j
cessory to the disruption of the marriage on false 1
pretences.
j At this time the lady had under her charge tin
youngest daughter other husband by his m-.st wife,
to whom she had been constituted legal guardian
by the Chancellor, without opposition from the fa
; titer; and upon whom she had expended some live
thousand dollars for the purposes of education. On ;
the lady’s way to New York, with this little girl. \
i who appears to have been strongly attached to her, '
the husband lay in wait lbr her, and as the hoat j
reached the wharf, he seized the child and ran oil'
with her, followed by his terrified wife and one of
j the boatmen, who tore off the skirt of his coat it,
: the struggle. Placing the child iu a carriage, the
gentleman drove off’, but presented himself the -
] same day at the house where his wife was staying, I
offering to restore the child to her, and give a pa- ]
j per confirming her perpetual guardianship beyond
the power of molestation, on condition of her sign
j ing the important document which was to secute
j him a divorce and enable him to marry one of two
I or three ladies whom he said he had in view. Tht
' child, miserable in her separation from her guar
j dian, and ill from the shock and terror of her forci
| ble abduction, wrote imploring letters beseeching i
: her “ darling mother” to yield to Iter father’s wish i
| es ; friends and legal counsel represented that hot j
! forced signature could avail nothing; the father !
walked up and down the street —called every few ;
miuues to inquire ‘‘if the papers were signed,”
threatening eternal separation from the child it
they were not, and in a half distracted state -with
a protest against its falsehood—the weeping ladv
affixed her signature to the document, and had the
little girl immediately restored to her; the prom
ised paper securing Iter guardianship being with- j
held till he should be sure of its efficacy in procur
ing tiie divorce. The promised paper was never
given.
The lady thought proper to caution the lady to
whom her husband was paying bis addresses, and
wrote to inform her that lie had neither a divorce nor
a tty right to one. After her return to (.'ltarlcston,
she was surprised one dav to see the announcement
of his marriage to a lady in the State of Maine.
Having received no notification of the action for
divorce, she directed her counsel in Philadelphia j
to investigate the matter, and if a divorce had real- :
lv been granted, to enter her protest against the \
decree.
The Court records gave no evidence, the papers j
on the subject having, it was said, been abstracted; j
the Supreme Court, therefore, coulu not act on that
appeal; but the counsel said lie believed the plea 1
had been granted on the supposed voluntary state
ment of the lady, and a point had even been
stretched to oblige her in the matter. Consequeii:
ly the lady’s counsel, i>. Brown, Esq., then pr< -
cured, in the Court of Common Pleas, a rule to
show cause why the decree of divorce should uot
be rescinded or annulled, on the ground that it
had been obtained by fraud and imposition on the
Court. So stands the case. Several authors, w ■
understand, have been subpienaed, and constrained
to give evidence. When the testimony is made
public in full, as we understand it will be, strange
and curious practices will be brought to light,
shaming the invention of French novelists. The
third wife of the gentleman in question, it is said,
has retreated trom the coming storm to the shelter
of her brother’s house, in Bangor.

Yankee Progress 1 nder the Tropics.
We had simultaneous arrivals yesterday from
Nicaragua and New Granada. The Star of the
West brought news from Nicaragua to tit - lath
ult., and the Osprey sailfii from Carthagena outlie
15th. The Star of the West brings us six hundred
and fifty thousand dollars in gold, and is, as usual,
ahead of the Panama steamer. Peace still reigns
within the borders of Nicaragua, and many false
reports that have been flying about this country as
to the stability of the government are autliorative-
Iv denied. Gelt. Walker’s army have received large
i* •inforcements. Colonel Hornsby- Walker's right
hand man, and a gallant officer, has been made
General of Brigade. Mr. Sehlessinger who eluded
the “ vigilance” of Mr. MeKeon, has been appoint
ed Adjutant General, with the rank of Colonel. Cap
tain Kerrigan has arrived, and is said to
relish the field of Mars better than his seat as a |
member of the New York Common Council. Cap- -
tain Kerrigan w ill be a better soldier than states- j
man.
Yankee enterprise bad already laid off the sub- j
urbs of Granada in house lots, and business was ;
quite lively. Rafael Carrera, the Captain General ot ,
Guatemala, says that he is glad to find that peace I
has been restored to Nicaragua. This politeness on j
the part of one who is supposed to be a bitter en- [
inv of the party in power in Nicaragua, looks a j
good deal like humbug. But the amiable Car- i
rera will find it difficult to humbug the Yankee', j
They understand that sort of thing much better
titan be does. The present government of Niea- I
ragna lias now been in existence since October. It j
seems to he firmly established, and the beneficial ;
effects of peace are already apparent. With North j
American enterprise, steamboats, sawmills, energy, 1
industry, pet severance and money. Central Amer
ica will yi-t be one of the Powers of the earth, i
The mine- is rich .-nnugli to pay for working it. I
From New Granada the accounts are cheering j
; Our readers will remember that the Osprey is the
1 pioneer of a line of steamships between Cart lift- j
j genu ;.nd Now York. She is owned by a company
; of New York merchants, who are engaged in im
portant internal improvements in New Granada, I
the trade of w hich republic lias long been monopo
lized Io English mercltams, whose profits are tin- i
| men sc.
The remarkable events now transpiring in Cen
tral and south America cannot but lead to most
important result- to u< and to the States which
: have recently received such a powerful infusion of j
North American energy. In New Granada we see t
a company ot' New York merchants quietly two--
Unionizing the entire commerce of the country, t
while a railway chartered bv the New- A ork 1
Legislature connects the Atlantic and Pacific,
with its termini looking towards till quarters '
of the globe. In Nicaragua, the North Amer
ican takes a military stand ; and, under authority
of the native government, preserves peace and
tranquilitv iu a State impoverished and weaken', d
bv iutemal dissensions. But the arts id peace are
not neglected. Business men 1 1 a.- ■ returned to,
their avocation, and trade i- once nt re profitable,
because it is secure. The State is congratulated
bv its sister republics and lias, by the aid of a
handful of determined Not tit Americans—led by
a man whose ability is undoubted, and whose mo
tives we have no right to impugn—taken a position
which would have seemed impossible six months
ago. _
Steam Communication with America.
in and after May next, fifteen gigantic mail steam
packets will leave Europe monthly for the Ameri
can Continent, viz: seven English packets, four
! United States, three Belgian and one Portuguese.
Fourteen of these w ill start front or touehjat Eng

j ception ; eight of the fourteen steamers will start
j from Southampton, and the remaining six from i

nate on the American side at the Brazils, Central
I America, and the United States, Bio tie Janeiro
