marked an evidence of your approval is
a source of the purest gratification.
Here f am not unmindful of what is
due to those around me. Associated with
officers justly possessing your entire confidence:
ever ready so to discharge their
duties as to'promote the interest of the
service, and sustain the high character of
the corps; competent to, advise, and prompt
to act, I had at . all times the benefit of
their zealous, and most useful aid. But
to the mint of its individual members is
the company indebted for its character; to
your correct moral deportment and manly
bearing; to tlie influence of those honorable
and elevated principles, that so mark
the conduct of the Patriot Citizen Soldier.
During a toilsome march through the
swamps and wilds of the Indian country,
amidst the difficulties and trials inseparable
from such a warfare, the spirit of the
Citizen Soldier never flagged. It was then
that your enthusiastic devotion to duty
most excited- the admiration, and gave
new impulse to the energies, of the officer.
Yours was the 41 patriotism of prompt
action," that animated you under all circumstances,
and proved you worthy of
your country?the country of Washington;
worthy of Carolina, noble, magnanimous
CAROLINA ! The land of Sumter
and of Marion ! And could the exalted
spirits of those patriot Iieroes, from
the christians' happy resting place, haye
looked down upon the course of the Car-,
olinaTroops, it must have been with pride'
and exultation?that her sons had not degenerated?that
their virtues were emula-'
ted, and that the force of their example
was still powerful. Happy too, in the
assurance that the 44 Tree of Liberty,"
which they had left in all the beauty of its
nature : luxuriant in a soil enriched by
the pure blood of their compatribts?was
still flourishing, and destined long to extend
its branches, with their bright and
unfading foliage, over a brave and virtuous
people.
There, on that spot, over which now
proudly waves ihe (JLORIOUS BAN.NKR
of our country, was the Prison
House: in which wcic incarcerated Carolina's
Whig Sons, confined to its floor by
British chains, and often the subjects of
British cruelly.
Fellow Citizens ; Kershaw district never
has, and from its nature "and the force
of circumstances, never can send into service
any other than a gallant corps.
The ground we tread on is classic?consecratcd
to Liberty, and the very atmosphere
is impregnated with its purest prin- *
ciples?principles early and strongly impressed
upon the minds of our youth.

With the nourishment that sus- (
tains the Infant, is imbibed the virtuous
Mother's ardent love of country.
Tor tile kind and very flattering sentiments
you have expressed, Sir, and for j
the manner in which you have discharged
the duty assigned you, aceept my most
earnest acknowledgments, lie, who in
the face of an enemy, can deliberately
observe his movements, and with a soldier's
coolness promptly perform the duties
of his post, will never shrink from
"any situation in which his country or his
friends may place him.
To you, my generous and esteemed associates?endeared
to me by your magna-'
nimity, your worth, and your many acts
of disinterested friendship, I beg leave to i
offer every assurance of my lasting gratitude
and regard. The strong feelings of,
attachment that hind me to the " Kershaw i
Volunteers," will exist until the heart
cfcases to act. For your individual hap-'
pincss and prosperity, I will ever feel the'
most anxious solicitude. This bright memento
of your valued confidence and esteem
will ever be justly prized., My children
too with pride, regarding it as generous
friendship's offering, will ever proper
iy estimate and preserve it; and early
will they be taught to admire your virtues,
and to appreciate your worth.
After the loud, and for sonrie time continued
cheering had ceased, a procession
V/as formed, composed of the citizens and

Church, under the command of Col.
John Cjiesnut, Marshal of the day, assisted
by Adjutant Murray.

The procession was now re-formed and
marched to the ground where a sumptuous
Barbecue had been prepared by the Florida
Volunteers in honor to their late commanJer.
A large concourse of the citizens of
the Dist. had previously repaired to the spot
where they were anxiously waiting to unite
villi feeling and sentiment in celebrating the
lay. Gen. Jas. W. Cantey was called to
preside, assisted by Dr. A. DeLeon, as Vice
President. As soon as the cloth was removed,
the following toasts were drank?the
cannon at the same time reverberating a
national salute.

The following is copied from the Ex,
press slip of the New Orleans Commercial
Bulletin,
p/ Extract of letter, dated
Shreveport, June 20, 183t.
"Information from a distant section of
country of which, but little is known, may
, be acreptaTdc. : .
"This place near the Great Raft of Red
n
iviver uecomes my nome lor a few days
while on an excursion, the object of which,
is to obtain actual knowledge of the correctness
of reports relating to the fertility
of the Red River soil. Upper lied River
is but little known, the Great raft has
kept back population until within a few
months; Natchitoches haretofore was the
upper point of steamboat navigation.
Shreveport, by water is about 22o miles
above Nachiloehcs, >10 miles from the'
Sabine River and 90 from Nacogdoches
in Texas. The treaty of cession from the
Caddo tribe of Indians to the United
States, was for Louisiana of much more
importance than is supposed ; indeed,
until I visited ihiS section of country, I
never kncw(I blush at tny ignorance) that
a tribe of Indians held in Louisiana some
millions of acres of land. This country
was the nation, and for the s.nall sum of
$S0,000 the Indians relinquished their
title to the most beautiful country, proba
bly in the United States. So long as the I
i?i*i*t prevented access to this land ii was!
of little value, now without doubt, it is
the most valuable body of cotton lund in
the world, uud from its appearance, I sup
pose generally healthy ; the population is
all new, having moved in since the treaty
with the Indians, which took place some
few mouths ago; the country within fornc
miles of this place .prcscn s u continued
succession of pluntatons; hut from ten to
50 miles distaut, the axe of the farmer Iiu3
made no encroachment.
This town, if so it can now be called,
has its name in honor of Cupt. SShreeve,
* I. _ _ /r . i. . i . i . i
me oincer who reporicu me praaucauuiiy
of tlic removal of the Raft, and under
whose direction the removal has thus far
proceeded. It is a snug little place, containing
some frame dwellings, warehouses
and twenty or thirty log houses and stores;
they are erecting a large steam siw mill,
and I understand, have contracted for the
building ??f a church and academy. The
mania of speculation has reached even up
in these woods, and the change of times
does not seem to effect the emigrants.
Within a few days, lots in the town have
been sold at prices which astonish mc, and
to persons too. who purch ist? 'immediately
to improve; the proprietors of the town
I think, draw a little on fancy in their
representations, they are intelligent getitlemeri,
and with one or two exceptions,
are large' planters and wealthy, I can
hardly agree with gjie of them, who is
well known, having in former days been
a conspicuous merchant, now planter. He
calculates the annual shipment of cotton
from Shrcvcpnrt, after live years will reach
fifty thousand bales. II is argument?
when cotton is low, planters from poor'
lands, Goorgia, South Carolina, &,c., will i
be tinder the necessity of emigrating, and
will till up the body of rich land, which
will ship its produce from this point.
1 shall visit the raft to-morrow and will
again write you. Yours, <Scc.
It gi ves us pleasure to inform persons
having friends in Texas, or those interested
in that new country, that the T? xian
Congress lias made appropriations for the
establishment of a Post Ofliee Department
and that 15. Barr, Esq., a gentleman of
well known abilities, is appointed PostMaster
General. Intercourse ran now be
had throughout the interior of Texas,
without the delay, which despatches were
lorU'Cily subjected to. Ti c friends of that
new Republic should view niih pleasure
! every improvement her patriots are ma'
king, to tegulate and improve a country
| possessing a climate so mild nnd'lieallh),
and a soil so rich as thai of Texas.
The day is not far distant when her iniproveineiiis
will be as great, and 1 hat government
will he as well organized as
others of more ancient date, who have 'ahoreil
ayes to gain that state of civiliza.
tion, which the new Republic will possess
in a lew years.

Nor winds which sighed around

in this dear spot his mother sleeps.

I Wild torests o'er it wave
Autumnal winds are heard to moan
Around the desert grave.

Of one so lone and desolate.
