Another Fight with the Scininoles.
On the morning of the 30th ult., in pursuance
of an order from Alaj. Dozier, Capt. Stephens, with
87 men, commenced a hunt for the Indians enga
ged in the massacre of horses chronicled in our
last paper. Lts. Crews and Stephens were the only
officers accompanying this expedition. Took the
trail and followed it, in an easterly direction, with*
out the siga increasing, until the evening of the
1st, when it intersected another large trail, which,
it was supposed, led to the scene of Capt. Cone’s
recent capture ; fresh sign going cither way. On
the 2d, took the east end of the trail; late in the
evening came to another large trail, coming from
toward Fort Shackleford ; struck camp and sent
parties out on both ends of the trail, to see if they
could discover anything that would indicate the
presence of Indiana. One of the men returned
about dark, from the East, and reported that they
had heard something that they thought was chil
dren playing. Before day, on the 3d, the com
mand started in the direction indicated; after about
four miles marching came to a small patch contain
ing pumpkins and other vegetables; continued on
the trail till about 8, A. M., when it led to a large
town, which was charged. The town was found
to have been vacated about four days. There were
about fifty neatly built palmetto bouses in the
town. A newly commenced clearing was found
near by, which would seem to indicate that the In
dians expected to continue their residence near this
place.
After destroying corn, rice, and peas, which was
cribbed in a ten-acre field near the village, the
command returned to the houses and took dinner.
Some of the men went out with the trailers; onc
of them soon ran into camp and reported that they
had seen eight Indians. The command shouldered
packs and followed the direction of the trailers;
soon struck the Indian trail and followed it a few
hundred yards, when the case was given up, and
the command took the trail the Indians were on
when discovered, supposed it led to a settlement.
The trail was not pursued lar when two men were
reported unable to proceed, and the command was
compelled to halt and strike camp. One of the
trailers, with eight or ten men, followed the trail
about 400 yards, when they were fired upon by In
dians who were lying in ambuscade. One man
was ki’led. The command rushed to the reiief of
their comrades, hut, before they reached the spot,
the Indians had secured the gun and cartridge box
of the man killed. Capt. Stephens ordered a
charge, but the Indians ran, keeping out of gun
shot. They were pursued above a half-mile, when
it was discovered that they intended another am
buscade. The command then returned, carrying
the dead man to camp. The Indians followed,
keeping a distance of about three hundred yards;
their number increased very fast.
The dead body was hastily covered, and the com
mand retreated seme two or three miles, when
they came to a dense cypress head, which they
passed as though they intended continuing their
course; when arrived at the opposite end of the
cypress head, the command entered it and went
back to the first end and concealed themselves for
about thirty minutes; when three Indians approach
ed within gun shot; by a well directed volley two
of them were shot down dead, and the third was
shot down, but got; up to run ofT, when Capt. Ste
phens shot him in the back and he came very near
falling on liis face, hut recovered and got into the
cypress. The command again concealed them
selves, and after waiting some two hours, other In
dians approached the bodies of the dead ones.—
After they had reached the spot another fire was
poured into them, and three warriors fell dead.
Another was mortally wounded, as he felltwiec be
fore he got out of sight in the cypress.
Capt. Stephens supposes, from the number. of
Indians that first fired on his men, and from the
manner in which they increased, that more than
two hundred fighting men can be collected in twelve
hours. He also thinks there are five hundred alto
gether. Under these circumstances, Capt. Ste
phens deemed it prudent to get out of the swamp
!>efore his command was hemmed in. After secur
ing five rifles and shot-bags, the command left their
ambuscade and reached camp on tho morning of
the 4th. ;
The Indian town is about thirty miles from Camp
Rogers, and Capt. Stephens thinks a party can se
cure a fight at any time they want it by going
there. He deems it imprudent for less than 150
good hearty inen to go in. The Indians have every
advantage of on approaching party, as the coun
try is open, with thick cypress swamps inter
spersed, giving them an opportunity of seeing
the whites and preparing their ambuscade accor
dingly.
This engagement is a glorious one, and, al
though it may be called a defeat, but few affrays
with the Scminolcs, since the commencement of
the present war, have been attended with more
success.
Let such defeats occur often, and the grand re
sult will soon be accomplished. Five to one is no
even swap. Uncle Sam can well afford to make
the exchange, if it is not too long between trades.
To Capt. Stephens too much praise cannot be
awarded for his prudent action in this affair. He
has exhibited a discretion which is too often lost
sight of by those seeking renown in the trade of
arms. . .

Dcscriptiion of Nicaragua.
Nicaragua lies between the 10th and 15th
parallels of north latitude; it has an average
length of 250 miles to a breadth of about 220
—consequently has au area of about 550,000
square miles, which is about the state of Illi
nois. One-tenth part of tho whole surface of
the State is covered by the Lake of Nicaragua,
which is 110 miles long with an average
breadth of 40 miles, and lies in the south-west
ern part of the State, ten or twelve miles from
the Pacific Coast. This late receives a great
many small streams of water, and discharges
them again through the river San Juan (pro
nounced San YVan), running from the south
western end of the lake, after a course of
about 100 miles, empties into the Caribbean
Sea, at Punta Arenas, in the southeast comer
of the State. It was at this point that Walker
landed with 450 of his military followers on
the 25th day of last month. The river is deep,
hut narrow and crooked, and is navigable for
small steam vessels from its mouth to the lake.
Nicaragua is hounded on the south by Costa
Rica, the most southern of the States of Cen
tral America; on the north by the State of
Honduras; cast by the Caribbean Sea; aud
west bv the Pacific Ocean. It has about 300
miles of coast on either ocean. It was on the
southwestern side of the lake, and in the vicin
ity of Rivas and Grenada, that most of Walk
er’s military exploits were perforated.
“Nicaragua has a popmlation of 250,000 m
all, counting the remnants of the aboriginal
tribes, half-breeds, and Spanish; of the last
there are but few, but they are in fact the
strength of the State, being mostly priests and
officers of government and owners of the soil
and masters’ of the nativo population. No
where, perhaps, on the continent of America
has the original population reached so great a
depth of human degradation as in the Central
American States. With no prospect hut ex
tinction or the most abject slavery before them,
they are indolent, vicious, faithless, and filthy
to the last degree, subsisting on thospontane-
ous bounties of nature, and, when this resource
.. fails, ea any description of offal or garbage
Kel_ that presents itself to their depraved palates.
The climate is warm, and they require but
little clothing aud this little is so filthy as to
render the sight of them unbearably loath
some."
Railroad to the Pacific.
A writer in the Terre Haute (Ind.) Union
uas been furnishing that paper with a very in
teresting series of ^articles on a railroad com
munication with the Pacific coast. That is a
subject to which no American, who rejoices in
the prosperity, growth and power of his coun-
try, can be indifferent; and the writer for the
Lmon has shown how intimately they are asso
ciated with a rapid, continuous and easy com
munication between the Atlantic and Pacific
slopes. Until that is obtained, we cannot bo
said to possess the advantages nature has mark
ed out for us as a people, or as a nation. To
have a highway through our own territory,
and to be able to go from one part to another,
without being dependnet on the pleasure of a
foreign government, or being compelled to
cross a foot of foreign soil, is of the highest
importance.
It is a great undertaking to make such a com
munication ; but the energy is not lacking to
accomplish it, if the countenance of the Con
gress can be obtained toward it. The most
feasible and practicable plan for the construc
tion of a railroad was reported from a select
committee of the House of Representatives, at
the last session of Congress, of whom the pre
sent Commissioner of Indian Affairs, Mr. Den
ver, was chairman. That plan is, to construct,
by grants of public lands, three main routes—
adopting the ground of compromise recom
mended by the St. Louis Convention in 1849
—one of the Western boundary line of Texas,
at or near El Passo, on the most direct and
eligible route, to the eastern boundary of Cal
ifornia, which will pass through the territory
of Arizonia; another, from the head of Lake
Superior to the Red River of the North, and
from thence, on the most direct and eligible
route, to Puget’s Sound, or to the Pacific Ocean
at or near the mouth of the Columbia River,
as may be found most practicable; and the
third, from the western boundary of the State
of Missouri or Iowa, on the most eligible route
over the Rocky Mountains, to California and
Oregon.
The details of the bill give to the United
States, at all times, the use of the roads for
postal, military or other purposes, at such
rates of compensation as Congress - may pre
scribe. They also make provision against an
injurious monopoly of the lands that may be
granted to the companies. There are other
wholesome provisions in the bill.
This proposition will be presented- to the
Congress soon to meet, and it will be called up
on to say whether these roads shall be con
structed at all or not. The time is propitious,
as do Presidential contest is on hand, and the
proper consideration can he given to this high
ly important matter. And it is necessary that
immediate action he had if Congress intends
that these grand communications shall be made
in the way proposed; for the public lands are
being frittered away so rapidly that, in a short
time, there will not be enough to build the
xoads, without an addition of a large cash cap
ital, which Congress will hardly appropriate.
If then, we repeat, these roads arc desirable,
and are to be built by means of grants of land
by Congress—and we see no other way that
they can be built—the approaching session of
Congress should not be allowed to pass with
out making provision for their construction.
St. Louis, Dec. 30.—Kansas dates to the
25th inst., have been received. The St. Louis
Democrat, (black republican) has advices
which say that civil war is raging in Burbon
county; that several conflicts have occurred,
and a number of prisoners were taken on both
sides. The United States Marshal, with 80
men, demanded the surrender of the free soil-
ers, and the demand was answered by a volley
of musket halls.
The fire was returned, and a fight ensued,
lasting an hour. The pro-slavery men finally
retreated, with a loss of one killed and two
mortally wounded. The marshal was danger
ously wounded.
Lane is entrenched at Sugar Mount, deter- •
mined to fight Gen. Harney's dragoons if at

Exciting debates have oecurrred in the Law
rence convention. The committee on resolu
tions presented three reports. The majority
report disapproves of voting for State officers ;
the first minority report recommends the nom
ination of a full State ticket, and tlie second
recommends a participation in the election for
the purpose of destroying the Lecompton con
stitution. During the debate on these reports,
mostradicalrcvoluticnary speeches were made.

The Plunder or Delhi.—A letter from
Delhi, dated September 27th, says ; “ For a
description of the riches of Delhi, my pen is
inadequate. Cashmere shawls inlaid with
gold, bodies covered with gold lace, skirts of
dresses, watches, bars of gold, beds of silks and
down, such as no noble man’s house in England
could produce, you would sec sikhs carrying
out of Delhi the first day, as if they were al
most nothing. A shawl which, in England
would fetch £100, they were selling for four
rupees; and you may depend our fellows
were not behind them. • •
Itis supposed the Rifles will go to England with
upwards of £1,000 each, though Gen. Wilson
has issued an order that the prizes shall be all
put together and divided. Most of our men
are worth upwards of 100 rupees.”

Croker pretended on one occasion toset the
Duke of Wellington right as to some details
relating to the battle Waterloo, when the
Duke shifted the conversation to the subject
of percussion caps used in the army, upon
which Croker again ventured to be learned
and contradictory. This upset the Duke’s
P atience, and he exclaimed, “ Come, Croker,
may not know much about Waterloo, but

liable. And it is not only a remedy for these mala
dies, but, in ail cases in which they are produced by
drinking bad water, which is almost universally the
cause of them, it operates as a sure preventive.
The distressing effect upon the stomach, bowels
and bladder, of travelers, or new residents, and al
persons unaccustomed to them, produced by the wa
tors of nearly all our great inland rivers, like tho
Ohio, Mississippi, and Alabama, and from the large
quantity of decayed vegetable matter contained in
them, in a state of solution, is well known as also
that of the waters of limestone regions, in producing
Gravel, Calculi, and Stone in the Bladder. The Ar
omatic Schiedam Schkafts is an absolute correc
tive of these injurious properties of bad water, and
consequently prevents the diseases which they oc
casion. It is also found to be a cure and preventive
of Fever and Ague, a complaint caused by the con
joint effect of vegetable muiaria in the atmosphere
and vegetable putrescences in the waters of those
districts in which it principally prevails. The Aro
matic Schiedam Schnapps is consequently in great
demand by persons travelling, or a bout to settle in
those parts of the country, especially, as well as by
many in every commnnity where it has become
kuown, on account of its various other remedial,
properties.
In all cases of a Dropsical tendency, it is general
ly the only remedy required, when adopted injhe
early stages of the disease. In Dyspepsia maladies,
when taken in proper quantities, as a diet drink, and
especially at dinner, it is found, by uniform experi
ence, to be eminently efficacious in the most obsti
nate cases, when even the best of the usual reme
dies have failed to afford more than temporary ro-
lief. In cases of Flatulency, itis an immediate aud
invariable specific; and it may be administered in
diluted and proportionate quantities, even to young
nfants, in all those paroxysms of griping pain in the
stomach and bowels to which they are especially
subject, as well as in the colic of grown persons.
Its judicious adoption in connection with the prin
cipal meals, or when a sense of exhaustion dictates
its use, never fails to relieve the debility attendant
upon protracted chronic maladies, low temperament,
and exhausted vital energy, by whatever cause in
duced. These are facts to which many of the most
eminent medical men, both in Enropo and the Uni.
ted States, have bom testimony, and which are co
roborated by their highest written anthorities.

Tonic*
From Col. Albert Pike, M. C., from Arkansas.
Washington, D. C., June 11,1856.
“I have used two bottles of your Bterhave’s Hol
land Bitters, and have found it very useful in case
of Indigestion and Headache, and recommend it to
all who need a pleasant and efficacious remedy and
valuable tonic.”
Dyspeptic Women, Notice!—Bcerhave’s Holland
Bitters has cured me of Dyspepsia by using it only
one week. I recommend it confidently to all suffer
ing from this disease. Clara E. Schuchman.
Pittsburgh, Oct. 24, 1856.
(Mrs. S. is the wife of the noted Lithographer.)
The late High Sheriff of Alleghany has given ns
tho following:
* I was afflicted with debility of tho digestive or
gans, amounting to a severe attack of Dyspepsia,
which bad reduced my flesh considerably. My wife
was also afflicted under the same circumstances and
with the same disease. Having used your medicine
called Bcerhave’s Holland Bitters, we both obtained
relief, and are happy to afford you this public evi
dence of its value. John Forstth.
