Indian AHHr.. From the Colombo* Sentinel. July 2. i An express came in to the Governor' last night; bringing intelligence of the escape of the hostile Indians, probably, under J ion'Henry* and that on their way, through, they hare murdered fourteen; whites. General Scott, it is said, started off a company of mounted men after them,' but the Indians were two days ahead; but i little prospect is entertained of orerta-j king tbem. The express states, that the i supposed number of the Indians were1 near 3>00, and they were well mounted, j die. The Indians crossed the Chattahoo-' chie only three miles below Roanoke, and thus with an army opposed to them of nearly 5,000 effective men, and in their very midst, have these desperadoes escaped, carrying death and destruction in their train. In jnstice to Governor Schley, j we are happy to state, that some time { since, anticipating that the Indians would I escape whenever they got hard pressed, he took the prcraulion to order Gen. Wil-1 cox, of Telfair county, to have a sufii- i cicnt armed force stationed in Baker coun. i ty, to intercept them, and that the men* "k" ihn?* ordered for this nuroosc. absolutely refused to be commanded by Gen. Wilcox, and bare thought proper to i disperse, in defianco of every effort ofj Gen. W. to the contrary. If necessary,] tre will publish the order of his Excellency to Gen. Wilcox, and the correspondence between the parties, which will entirely exculpate Gov. Schley from blame. Wc hare just had an interview with Maj. John J. Slattcr, direct from Fort Jones, who gave us intelligence that information had reached that place yesterday, previous to his leaving, that Col. Thomas Holmes, of Baker connly, with his command of 125 men, had overtaken the Indians near the Florida line, and was giving them faille. In consequence of the Indians having a superior force, he via fighting, retreating and advancing, intending thereby to hold them at bay until ho could be reinforced. The bearer of the information further slated, that he had met Col. Bell with two hundred and fifty * men, in twenty mites of him, pressing witii all speed to his assistance. The probability is, therefore, that tho scoundrels will yet be brought to justice.?Lord send it. The following extract will give oar renders some den of the pineal stole of the Indian war. It is latest intelligence wc Have received on the object.?Co. Jon. M We bare jost learned, says the Augusta Constitutionalist, that Gen. Scott has detached five companies of mounted men, among them the Bibb Cavalry, in pursuit of the Indians that committed the depredations in Baker county, on Saturday hsl. They are under the command of Maj. Alford, and hare received orders to fallow j wgk'ral'Msii.-fr arrwahi.<w: cbce. Our informant is of the opinion that ificse are not Jim Henry's Indians, 1 who, he thinks, are atiil in the swamps 1 on the Chattahoochee, entirety surroun- ' ded by the whites, and without the least * chance of escape. A smart cannonading j was beard in that direction on Sunday!' night, which continued for upwards of an I hour?the result was not known." 1 i AUGUSTA. July 2. ?

I A fair t at Tampieo.?The sublcvation of Texas; ihc badly conducted expedition t of Mrjia against Tampieo, with the t knowledge of this expedition having been 11 titled out direct front the port of New Or- r leans; tho tone of-the public papers un- t der the influence of tho Mexican govern- t mcnt, together with the thrcita of the i government party and eveo of ibe public ? authorities, produced such an excitement t against the citizens of the 1 J. 8. residing i in Tampieo, that they considered neither t their properties or persons safe trillion! t some protection front their government. ?! In consequence on the l-lll; of December ( they addressed a letter to the consul of i the United Stole#, requesting him to so- g licit the commander of the naval station at Pensacola to send down a small vessel r of war, of a draft of water so light ns to ?l allow of her coming into the river* This r solicitation they confidently believe would o have been complied with, but from some o unexplained cause, no vessel conic down t until ihc 3d of May, when the former Uc- j v venae Cutter Jefferson, anchored off the b bar, a period of four months and a half a after tho request was made. u Tho officer who lauded from the Jeffer- p son was at the bar transferred to the boat 'I /if I It n snitfiSn a f il. & * n?t a m ilitfirir <1 " ?mv cajriuiii U| KIO |M?ri9 HUU ? iniiitui J U officer was despatched with hid) for ihc n purpose of a rigid surveillance. On his li arrival in town accompanied bj the con- w sol of his nation, he waited on (he mili- ll lary eommaodant, and without any pre- 1] Jiminary enquiry or request they were ll informed by this functionary, that the ves- e sel would not be permitted to come into p the river. A correspondence between fr the consul and military commandant en- n encd in consequence. The next day ti whilst this correspondence was pending, d >- ''* '? another officer was despatched. from the.t tchr.; he was debarred from corrmunica- y ling with hia cod.mi1, and was conducted, i to' tho commandant, whilst his boat's crew were carried to the guard house and < put under arrest. The officer spoke no i Spanish, the commandant no English, i their communication was through the I government interpreter. Whilst scaled . j quietly in the audience chamber, thep great man in person entered the room, < but as he was in hie shirt slcercs without j any insignia of office, and not remarkably j military in his appearance', he was not re-. | cognized by the officer of the schooner, who retained his scat whilst the comman-j!

Happily for;1 both parties the interpreter had a little' i more discretion than his employer, and ! executed his translation by simply intro- i ducing the officer to the General. ^ i < The consul in an official letter demns- i ded nf the military commandant salisfac- i tion (or the insult offered to lite (lag. He ' was told officially in reply, not to bother him with official letters of that kind as lie evidently only wanted to occasicn a national rupture, and that he had already been told by his aid-de-camp that the state of non-communication in-which the officer, was placed and the imprisonment 'of the boats crew, were only precaution. The whole correspondence of the military commandant was marked by the most evident intention to offend and insult the consul, and through him the government of the United States. No Kashaw of three tails, had he occasion to write to the most inferior o( his household, would hare made use of such contemptuous Ian-1i guage. i l? i, diffioiili In i/>rnnnl Cnr lit* conduct ! 1 ? ?

The effect upon the national canity was ; great, for all beliercd that Texas was, conquered, and great prepataliens was making to receive Santa Anna on his triumphal return from his glorious sauces*ful campaign. , , 1 r!ro?rmtnent party who always t seek to identify the Americans with the p Texiana were actively employed in cjc- 'c citing the populace to rise, to rtfb and murder the citizens of tbo United Sutes, 3 residing in this place, and to tho disgrace a )f the array be it said, a number of offi:er? bad actually prepared the soldiery and e leh! them ready for the nurnose.

For this ici onduct he assigned liio reason that the ! sc ort was closed, and that he had orders1 he om the gorernmont to prcrcnt any com - [ of Minicatmn with ships of war of any na-jpc on whatsoever. Miserable pretext! who J to ocs not Know that if a ship of wnr of irr w my other nation made her appearance lie} would immediately say thai the interdict was removed by (lie same order? The Jefferson had already sailed. The :ommander of the Grampus (hen opened ? correspondence with the Military Commandant direct, and several letter*-' passed between them; the Grampus and Warren *ot under way and went off, leaving their countrymen in Tampico in the same state! of uncertainly and risk in which they ' found them. The result of the corros-! pondcncc. is unknown, nor will it trans- J |>ire till it cotncs through the U. Slates. I f he feelings of the citizens of the United States in this place is of deep humiliation; the inattention shown to their pnrlirular case is certainly not flattering, and has tome weight in producing these feelings; but mortified national pride has by far the largest part. They arc aware that had the French flag nnd the French Consul been treated with the same indignity as the American, and had reparation been demanded by and refused to a French squadron, rccompanied by a positive refusal to allow any communication with the Consul, the fort and town would hare been immediately destroyed, without wailing further orders from the Government. The American citizens of this place arc far from censuring the ronimamier of the squadron, of taxing him with want of spirit in this transaction; they know and are proud of the gallantry of li e officers of their Navy, and they know that there was not a man in that little squadron that did not in his heart curse the pacific 11? f '*?- ? n?il tlm cirirl nr. |rwiu> ?P| llicir IIUUUlli um?? atav omivv w. dcrs to which that policy gives rise.
