On the contrary, it appears that he ok the earliest measures to provide arms, unitions and provisions for his forces, who ere found almost wholly destitute; and as ion as arms could be put into the bands of c volunteers, they were, in succession, itached and placed in positions to prevent e enemy from retiring upon Florida, and I lienevcr they could move against the < uin body of the enemy as soon as equip- i d for offensive operations. 1 "From the testimony of the Governor of i xirgia, of Major General Sanford, com- ( under of the Georgia volunteers, and i my other witnesses of high rank and i Hiding, who were acquainted with the i lography of the country, and the posi. i 11 and strength of the enemv, the Court t of opinion that the plan of campaign, i opted by Major General Scott, was well t Iculatcd to lead to successful results, and i U ii was prosecuieu ov ihijj, us mr us | ; icticable, with zeal and ability, until re-! \ lied from the command." . Opinion of the Court in reference to c the failure of the campaign in Florida, z conducted by Major General Gaines, in c 1830. ' l [After a summary of the evidence.] "The Court, afcr carefully reviewing and t luting the testimony of Captains Mitch- t ,-k and M'Call, Col. Twiggs, General < iith, and others, in reference to the oper- i ms and peculiar situation of the army at c mp Izard, finds it difficult to come to a li tclusion as to the real causes of the fail- v. > of the campaign. It appears, although o armv was surrounded, and rcpcatedlv a sailed by the enemy, in its fortified posi- i: ii, from die 29th February to the oiii 'J ?i cli, and straitened in tlie means of sub. li icnee, that, however important <o the J valry and reputation of the troops, no p Iv was made to test the result of such a tl iveincnt, which it is possible might have n jed in the defeat and subjection of the /, ;my, and have brought the war to a s se. ihit the Court, however, judging 'J m subsequent events in prosecuting the a r under other commanders, and tiie in. <j iiitable spirit of hostility evinced by the e . my, is of opinion that had a sortie been a ide by Major General < r nines, thougli he u ght have been able to beat and drive the j, .'my into the surrounding hammocks J swamps, they would have eluded pur- t t, and retired to .heir more remote fast- e >ses. But if such had been tiie result ti a sortie, Major General Gaines had not ii means of subsistence to have enabled e 11 to remain long enough m or about the c ve of the Wythlacooehec to seek out i enemy, and press the war to a success- f conclusion. ?S:ill tiie Couri, without i! pugning the motives that influenced Ma- o General Gaines, is of opinion that a v tie, under all the circumstances of 'die se, should have been made. c 'The Court, therclore, in taking a lull { ! imnartial view of all the circumstances 1 4 per fining to ihe operations ot' Major mural Gaines at Camp laird, is of opsn- c i that tiic failure of the campaign should j her be attributed to the want of the t tans of subsistence to prosecute the j .r. tliLt; to the couiintreiit result of a sor- < O { "The attention of the Court was next ( lied to a consideration of the publication ( Major General Gaines's official report ( the 1th of July, 1S3G, to the Adjutant i incral. in the public prints. The fact of j publication in the New Orleans Hnlleiin i the 27th of September is admitted by < fijor General Gaines (as will appear on i : proceedings of the Court) as authorized .< him, and without any authority but iiis i ii action. The Court is not aware that < publication in the public journals as ; cas the 29th September is in violation < anv rule or regulation of the service; - t"V ^ u t is of opinion that all publications in the i bl c prints, tending to excite public opini, or to pro Juce recriminations between i beers, arc prejudicial io tl:c interests of , public service, and injurious to the dis- ; iline of the army. The publication of j 2 official report of Major General Gaines j tor the 4th July to tlie Adjutai t General, j considered by the Court as falling under < iblication of this description by its per- < nal allusions. ' The Court cannot close its proceedings ; ilhout adverting to the strain of invective 1 id vituperation used by Major General J aines, in the language, generally, of his 1 miliary of the evidence touching the opations of his Seminole campaign, partic- ' arly that par: of it couched in the follow, ' g terms : " The atrocious mechanications the second United States General ojfi. r, who has ever dared to aid and assist c open enemy of the Republic in their opal ions against United States forces emoped in the protection of the frontier 'op/c.

It is insinuated that Phrenology leads 0 materialism.?In its teaching it cannot; ccause Dr. Spurzhicm taught that the 1 brain was the receptical of soul and spirf." If men insist tiiat it docs, it is no fault if the science. That the soul after the I ugliest etfort of mental energy should op. rate less and Ises efficiently through the m O rgans, till finally, in the imbecility of old ge, her operations are scarcely perceptible, s a dispensation of the God of nature.? riio eye becomes dim, the ear deaf, the mbs palsied : that tins should extend :o lie more delicate functions of the brain, is erfectlv rational ; it has nothing to do with lie nature of the soul, its immortality and nodes of existence- It takes it as grantcJ hut the immortality of the soul is demontrated in the Bible, and that it is as it is.? 1 fhe immortality of the soul is a Bible truth, j ,nd demonatratcd on/yon the face of reveal-! d truth, its exis cnce, fact, known by its; lliciency ; its mode unknown to us.?But i . science that tenches that the ' soul oper-j tes through flic different organs f can never j ad to material.sin. 4. It is surmised that it destroys the uniy of conscientiousness ; that if the soul oprale through the different organs, then iierc is no unity.?We may as well insist .at because it operates through thediftcrnt members ol the body there is no unity it conscientiousness. 5. It is affirmed that Phrenologists difer.?What has their difference to do with lie truth of the science?do no: men differ in every thing, even the teachings of the rord ot God. 0. It is said it is not of universal appli. ation.?What.science is ? There must be ievvers of wood and drawers of water? sculls that cannot teach and will not learn. 7. Jtis objected that there is a constant mange of the organs. So there is of every jariicle of the body, the size or energy of he members, and yet anatomy and materia nedica obtain. But the change of these organs ; their convergcncy or divergency; heir activity or inactivity, is what Phrenol>gy teaches?an important part of the sci:nce?and why urge the teachings of a sci. mcc against the science itself ? Phrenology s true, because most of the important organs have been located with absolute cer. :ainty. Because anatomical examination! )f the brain confirms it. Because as a j :hcory it is the most perfect thing ever pre-1 scnted to the world, and too perfect not to i be true. Because it is confirmed by daily I ?xperimeiit and observation. Because it, ilono solves the phenomena cfmind which obtain. Because it has resisted for thirty years the most virulent attacks of learned men, and been sustained by its own merits. Because it flourishes in an age of science in the most scientific parts of the world. Because the skilllul demonstrator can, in five minutes, developo character as perfectly and - ? - ~c more perfectly inan one iguuruui ui no principles could in Jive years; and because it may be made to appear true by the application of the science t) anu man's physical constitution. Fully convinced of the truth and compar- j itive perfection ol the science, I confidently (but as to myself, modestly) challenge! my objection to be urged which cannot be ms weird to the fullness of a rational con- I fiction on the minds of more than two: birds af the most intelligent and intellectual of the community.

On the ringing of ur the bell for dinner, lie took bis saddlebags, P6 containing bank notes to the amount of SP 25.000 and placed them in ilie desk of the vo ' - - - tr>i Lai rjom, requesting that they might b I"" taken care of. The desk was not locked, f nor the key in if, hut in a drawer. On J? the return of Mr. Edwards from dinner, and inquiring for the saddlebags, they were gone. Immediate inquiry and search were ?' made in every direction for the missing property. The Western stages had, during the interval in which the saddlebags had been deposited, left the town, and on ^ I inquiry of the servants, one of them stated [j I that lie had seen a man come out of the bar-room with the saddlebags, and git into r>( one of the stages. The cashier, with the utmost proinpti:u Je, pursued the stages on ^ | hope of obtaining some clue to the discov. jc' ery of the money. In the mean time, the {j scarcli was continued at Talbott's Hotel I and in a short time after the departure of f0 ; the cashier the saddlebags were found, in g I the vault of the cellar of the house, cut ]) i ooen and covered over with shavings, and the money gone ! The cashier was sent I ja after, on the supposition that the money U! hud been found as well as the bags, and t| returned, The only access to the cellar Q was from a trapdoor, which opened in the a floor of the bur room, as the other door b was kept locked and found locked. The e, J mysterious circumstances attending such S I a robbery added greatly to the excitement i which it caused all Wednesday nigh% and Thursday and Friday, On Saturday ^ morning, between 8 and 9 o'clock, a part Q | of the money was found in one of the upper c, rooms ofTalbott's tavern, between two fj beds?amount u $11,475, supposed, also fl i paper cinders."
