‘DIED, at the residence Mr. John
on Wedefday last, Mr.
Ludwell Mount castle , formerly of
Richmond, Virgina, but for sever
al years a Merchant of this place.
DIED this day, at his residence,
Mr. John Golly, an old and respect
able citizen of this county.
European translations of
late, may be considered as the
pj-ay of grown children, and
Napolen who seems like to
come out as chief winner in
the hide-and-go-seek game
which has been performed,
has brought the amusement to
a close very litte anticipated,
probablv, by any one but him
self. When in his retirement,
she was striking a coin, with
the very significant emblem of
a sleeping Eagle and a bee
hive, it is pretty evident lie
was looking forward to a pe
riod, when he should awake
to renovated activity and glo
ry. By the last accounts from
France it would appear, that
every thing in that great na
tion, is again as tranquil as
heretofore; and it is by no
means improbable, that the
Emperor, having been taught
some salutary lessons in one
of the best of all schools, the
school of adversity, may now
become a more valuable ruler
for the nation than one, whose
chief qualifications for govern
ment, consisted in his heredi
tary claims to dominion. At
any rate, if the Freach people
choose to be governed by Na
poleon, it wold naturally seem,
that other nations had noting
to do with this choice—and
should he rule with a rod of
iron, the people who are fond
of that sort of discipline, ought
not to be derpived of the com
forts in which they delight.—
If the allied powers persist in
their determitation of again
dethroning Bonaparte, they
have before them a work of
blood shed and difficulty; but
should they yield to the appa
rent will of France, and treat
with tne emperor as with any
other independent sovereign,
it is not impossible that the
’ so much wished for tranquili
ty of the world, may yet be
restored. It is not however,
unraesonable to conclude, that
some great and astonishing
events are, by an over-ruling
power, to be brought about,
by the changps which the
world has recently witnessed.

INDIAN AFFAIRS.
The subjoined correspon
dence will be read with no
small degnee of interest.
The letter of Col. Nicolls
speaks lor itsell. It not only
complains of pretended inju
ries done the Indians—it
not only warns us of the con
sequences ot tailing to restore
the lands they have voluntari
ly ceded to us, and to-evacuate
m due time the Forts erected
in their nation during the late
war; but, menacingly tells us
orders have been-given the
Indians u to put to death with
out mercy any one molesting
them,” that they have been a
bundantly furnished with
provision, ammunition and
arms, are “impatient for re
venge,” wait only the signal
of attack, and have “ a strong
hold to retire upon” should a
superior force be sent against
them. In a wor it threatens
in strong terms a renewal of
the Indian war , and an indis
criminate pdlage and massa
cre of our defenceless and ex
tensive frontier. Particular
care is also taken to apprize as
of a treaty of alliance, ojfensve
and def usve as well as ot'com
merce and navigation , having
been concluded between Great
Britain and the Creek Indians.
This is a circumstance our
government cannot overlook,
and will doubtless claim its
immediate and serious atten
tion. If Col. Nicolls be au
thorized to do what he has
done, so flagrant an infraction
of our rights would warrant
an immediate appeal to arms.
We are disposed to acquit
Governor Kinderlan of all
participation in this nefarious
business. His decided oppo
sition last winter to British
troops passing through East
Florida for the purpose of in
vading that quarter of our
state, induces us to believe he
is ignorant of the game Col.
Nicolls has been playing with
the Indians under the controul
of the Spanish government. —
Os this however, we shall be
better able to j udge on seeing
the reply of Governor Kin
delan to the spirited, yet re
spectful letter of the Execu
tive of our state on this inter
esting subject.
