The follow- flg extract of a letter from a

* “ ,s day finishes the second week of the
* CSs>l ° ,) of the legislature, and not more busi
*iess ione than ought to have been done in
wnc *eek. The great and weighty measures
V»* us by his Excellency toe Governor,
** .he Ojietxingof this session, has been much
* nbarrassed l>y a disagreement between the
Vjehate and the House of Representatives, as
to the suojec matter sought to be referred to
la joi.it Mitirary Committee. We have just
«mei*ged from this embarrassment, and a hill
vmbr icing such principles as a»e considered ne
cessary to organize and govern detachments
ot militia, will to day be reported to the legis
lature. It »s Contemplated by that bill, that
J&c oujor and brigadier-genetals tg
Uetaclrrh'nts staJl
tlvt g iveruor; the colonels and majors, by the
governor, adjutant general, and the officer ap
pointed to command the company offi
cers are to be appointed from the line by the
general and held officers, and specially com
missioned by the governor.
The bill, also, contemplates, the consolida
tion of the volunteer infantry, cavalry, and
nrt» corps, whenever the government may
deem it expedient. The voluuteer infautry,
when consolidated, is to be officered by a se
lection of officers attached to the different com
panies composing the consolidated company.
Ttie cavalry may be called into service as
mourned infhnrry. In adapting rhis law to
the U. .va.es* law, it has become necessary
to create a full colonel, second and third lieu
tenants
For the purpose of putting Savannah, St,
Mary’s and the intermediate points on the In
land navigation i.i a state of detence, the
House of Representatives have passed a bill,
appropriating'considerable of money for forti
fications {and block houses ; but whether ei
ther of those bills will pass in their present
form, cannot now be ascertained. The sum
appropriated for Savannah, is 45500, Dollars
exclusive of 12 0(10 dolls, advanced by the gov
ernor before the legislature met—lo,ooo dols.
are appropriated to St Mary’s, and 1000 dols.
to each block house to be erected. A bill
granting a charter to Messrs, M'&inneand
Shukz for their bridge opposite Augusta has
passed the Senate, and now before our House.
A bill, has also passed the Senate continuing
in force the \lievia r ing Law without altera
tion, but we felicitate ourselves on there being
a constitutional majority m that
the passage of the law should the governor
refuse his assent. We are hopeful that the
representative branch will at least give a cor
responding vote. , v.

cannonading had been heard at the Agency, >

The letter also states, that the Semenoles
have been committing some outrages; and
that there is good reason to apprehend they
will soon be on our frontier.
By a respectable gentleman just arrived
from Tennessee, we learn that in addition to
the troops already forwarded to the aid of

about to he embodied in that state,, and seat

A letter from Sackett’#* Harbor from the
commissary of ordnance-cfatetfthe 19th, states
“no news “ Nothing new by the western
mail last night.
A gentleman arrived here yesterday in the
Steam Boat, who left Sackett’s Harbor on the
ldth inst. and reports, that the enemy’s fleet
was off the Ducks,,but had not sailed; that
the large ship came oyer the bar, and then
took her guns on board; that an expedition;
was fitting out at Kingston, destination un
known; that our fleet Weret moored in Sack
ett’s Harbor, excepting the Sylph and Jones*
which were employed as lookout vessels—*hat
Sackett’s Harbor was considered perfectly
safe ; that 10,000 militia had arrived there
as a reinforcement to the regular troops; and
that about three hundred sailors had reached
the Harbor from Lake Champlain, and about
100 more were within a few miles of that
place. During the whole of this month the
weather had been remarkably fine ; there had
been no snow, and very little ice.

reasons for believing * that the dispute be
