TRIES!) V MONITOR. F RIDAY?*UNE9. ‘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. Augusta Herald. Milledgeville , June 7. 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. [Here follows the corres pondence between Col. Haw kins and Col. Nicolls upon the subject of the Indian bounda ries, which is too lenghty for ■ insertion.] Ed. Mon .

British account of the action between the United States’frigate Constitution, St Cyane and Levant sloops of war, bears honorable testimo ny to* the skill and adroitness with which capt. Stewart manoeuvred Ins ship, to frus trate the repeated attemps of of one or other of his oppo nents to gain a raking position on him. Lt. Ballard, says it was a brilliant affair,” and we have no dobt when the min utes of the action shall be re ceived by government they will exhibit, to every man ac quaited with naval tactics, a display of talent and galantry that will add another proud wreath to the already glitter ing escutcheon of our Naval Glory.— Bost.
