The average result of the Railroads jow in operatiofn in the United Sinies i4, that the, give a yearly interest of five and a half per cent. on the cap.tul invested. This re suit must he regarded as very satisfactory because the greatest part of the lines have only been a few years in operation. From tkc Savannah Georgian. FROM FLORIDA. We insert the following letter from a Ylorida correspondent,. premising that while he has stated affairs pretty much as, we fear, they exist it that territory, lie ap pears to have'indulged a disposition t draw on his imagination for the proclamna tion inclosed, which, though never before gazetted, is, we apprehend, a Mdir exposi tion of the spirit of the Tallahassees. " Dear Sir,-This is the 27th of July. On the 16th, according to proclamation. all tne Indians were to have been -intra limites" south of Pease Creek, but, nlas, no such good news can he told. The Indianas have not gone south, nor do I believe they intend to do so. The Tallahassees say, that they were no parties to the so'called * treaty,' that they are very well supplied with every thing needful-arms, ammuni tion, provisions, &c.; that the country now in their possession suits thema won derfully well, and if the white folks want it, they must come and take it." From the Brunswick Advocate, July 27. LATh Faom FLoaInA.-Mre Indian Murders.-By the politeness of a friend, we havd been favored with the perusal of a letter received from a, gentleman resi ding in Tallahassee. dated Sunday morn ing, 14th inst. which states that great ex citement prevailed at that place im conse quence of the Indians having attacked and murdered several families in that vicinity the night previous, and fired their dwellings. The writer states that the conflagration was seen from Tal!ahassee. and that the city, although Sunday. was in arms. A draft, it was contidently expected, would take place in a few days -a large number of the troops having been removed frot the territoryi conse quence of the treaty recentl) entered into by Gen. Macomb. This is ceasing bos tilities with a vengeance. Indeed there have been quite as many bloody atroci ties committed by the Indians since the "talk" held with Gen. M. as was ever known to have taken place during the samelength oftime previously. From the Tallahassce Floridian, of July 20. A letter froni East Florida we learn states, that San Jones had come in at lhri Lauderdale with 30) warriors. and cone into the district of country assigned them in General Macomb's treaty. It is stated, however. that lie considers he has a lee. simple title to the conutry. and will not re move west. The express who broughi the letter, stated that Sam Jones says hi. is the onl tribe that will make peace and that there are yet many hostile war riors in the country.. If so, there is little prospect of the war being closed. In confiriation of the above, a gentle man who resides on the Ocilla frontier, and who is well acq.-ainted with the coun try, having acted for a long tine as guide to ihQ.troops.says that there are moreIndian signs west of the Ocilla, at present, than be has seen at any time during the war. From the St.. Augustine News of July 20. lndihns at Drayton Island.-T his island is situated in Lake George, and owied by Z. Kingsley. Esq,, who had reoccupied it on the arnutstice ell'eeted by. Gei:erai Macomb, in full confidence of the since rity of the Indians, on the completion of that treaty. Laist week, a rumor was afloat that the enemy had visited it, and told tile negroes thereon that they must leave, as next moon," as soon as they should have collected their corn, they in tended to renew the war- We are not ini cline-d to give credence to this statement. not because the story was told by negroes, for generally their relations respecting in dians have turned 'tut true, but becaiuste the island was sit uted in that part of the territory north of the " neutral ground ;" and we did not thitnk that they would coinmnenee their predatory excursions be fore -he fall. The negro~es, howeve-r, on Wednesday last, passed down the river and stated to Lieutenant Poole, the comt mianding officer at Picolata, that a large number of Indians had appeared on the is land,. and they had left in consequence of their visit. The circumstances, we con ceive, w arrant our drawiung t he attention of Gen, Taylor to the exposed situation of! the eastern bank of the St. John's river. From Picolata to the mouth of the S:. Jothu's, there are living at this titme up) wvards of one hundred families. wvhose resi detntes are detached from each othter, and not sutficiently contiguotus to allow concert amiona them, in the' event -of the invabion of the enemy. They have in the grotund, sugar-ca e, cotton, and ptrovibions, inesides upwards of a thousand slaves, horses, and stocks of cattle. This, to these residents, is a matter of somni tmment, involving all of their wealth, atnd thte prospects of a maintenance of their families. Many per suns had determined Ott making an eflhrt to reoccttpy their abatndon--d farms, and seek relief from the blighting sting~s of po verty,. which thtey have bteen subjected to. The rations, too, accorded under a resotln tion of Congress, to the wants and sutfer ings of the inhabitants of~ Florida, have been discontinued to a nuznmtr who have heretofore drawn ; and the necessity ofap plying to the earth for a relief of their wants, is still more urgent. Yet. there isatnd mttst be distrust, as long as Indlians are seen and knaown to be prowling about the country; no mtan can cultivate, no man can hope for the reward of bis labor,. Un der the ptresent arratuemuent, with its ii position of troops, bumt a smiall amount of security is civen to the inhabitants east of St. John's, north of Volusia It may and will be said, there is no danger. It is wisdom to provide against the worst; and of all errors, that of trusting too much to the integrity of the Indian is ite most fa tal. Fort liatnson, on Moccasin Brancht, con tains by far too small a force to meet exi gencies wvhen thtey occur. We (do not wish to create any sentiment of alarm on this subject ; bitt we hold that we shouldl prove unfaithful to our trust, not to raise our voice ait danger, cven if viewed froni sho distance.. From the Charlcslon Merc::ry. Tnt.: l;AxK OFy 1NGLAND-The Mloney King in danger of dethrunetent.-T he commercial condition of England as exhib ited in the extracts we make to-day is worthy (if gerious study- nay, involvinig as it does our own interest to so fearful an exteut, it d'emands the closest scrutiny. A London paperreviewing the commercial relation, of England and the last quarter ly returns of the Bank, concludes with the following observation: &-From this return,therefore,it would still apj)ear that the Bank.of England has not been able to control the foreign exchanges. which is a very important feature in the return, but in other reqpects there is but little to notice beyond the circumstance hat th-ir great burden, "the deposits," have again decreased." Withiti the year preceding the 25th June, the-bullion in the Bank had been diminish ed the enormous slim of X.5,378,000, and ihe process wits still going onl. Ai the date uf the sailing of the Great Western, the specie in the Bank was saict to be lesstbanl ftur millions sterling, (sote accounts say less than three) and.the exchanget on the Ith of July actually becoming more unfa vorable to Etigl-and. Has commerce lost her balance? Has the autocrat of the moiley market dropt the sceptre? Has the Bank slumbered while all Europe was [ingering her exchequer? The system by which the Bank of Eng land pretends to govern the exchanges is very simple and known to most persons who pay attention to such subjects, it is, la case of exchange auainst London, to uriail her circulation; if need be, to raise the rate of interest, and thus produce a pressure and panic among English buyers, -heck importaiion, produce a necessity for .cllin! and by depressing domestic prices. incourare ex portaition. This proess has heen so oftet successful, that it had com to lie considered an infallible specific and was so spkien oi by the President of the lank in his exitminatimi before the HIosie if Commonii in 1832.

The faihre wasnot for want 4f a vicorous applicationl of the iedicine. its we our-.elves canl testify. Has it itie oist its healing virtua? In plain words has the Batnk (if England fallen from her sipreiacy over the money market? Thi is a moientons question. and oine which we ask in all soberness. Ifit he so. then is the coinnierce of the world on the eve of a mighty revailtion. .Mississirei BANKs.-The Vicksburg Senti.el, ol the 15th atlt., contains the fol latwing pleas ing ients of intelligence: Banks and Exchange.---The Commer rial Bank ofNatchez is now redeeming its ix months post notes. due about the 20th ,f August. with specie.

FROM No Tus-Eas-tEas TExAs.-By a tentlemtan, arrived yesterday from Nacog laches, Texas, via Natclhioches and Red ltiver, we learn that considlerabte excite n itt prevaiils in the mneightborhaood of St. lugustine and Nacogdloches,-ini relatiot to he huostile movenments aof Bow les, the CThe -okee chief,who, it is feared, contemplates Shostile invasion. General Rtusk had tent expresses in different directions for dl the tmilitia to turn out, and had already :ollected nearly .1000 men. His camp, when otur informant left, was within two Tilesu and a htulf of that of Bowles, anid an ingagemaent wams hourly antic-ipateud. Bowles, ini the mean time, w'as houttrly -ecei ving reinthrcementts from Arkansas, md the struggle was expected to be so vere. There is little doubt, ini the neighbor iood oif Nacogdoches, that Bow les has an a dersitanadinig wit h the Mexican ant hori ies, anal that he has been intirgtaed to this tastile miovemetnt lhv a piroiie of im ren-e grants in Texas in case lie succeeds, and that, moreover, thc Mexicants have agreted to ;attackl thea weasternt framtier itn thae vicinity of Sin Atonio or Gaoliial to inisti :ate thim still lfarthecr.

The Kickaptios, a warlike nad datnger tms tribie, whose skill n' itlh the rifle is said :o be as great as that of the l~Tennesseeanus, Ketuckians, or Texians, have joined B~owles, who is spoken of as a shtreuvd, de igning, and ambiitious chief, well educa :ed, anad perfectly conversant with the Englisht language. The Texianis desire to treaty with the Iidians-all they watt s a war ofexterminatiun, since they have eatrned the treachery of Bowles. The atter has alwvays pretended to act a per ecily friendly part; but the inter.:eptionm f several letters lately, to the authot-riies if Mexico, has shown him in his true soor-s...

",What shall 1 (1 with i my groundnuts'?" said old Dick; "Mrs. Dumpliig says she has too manuy ground-mtt cakes oni hand, and must pay less for the raw material un il she can sell ofTi'he cakes." "Do!" re plies Samho, "why hold them back. Von fool, hold them back until next crop, and force the old womani to come dlown hand sonely.'' "But then I speculated on these aroundnuts, and want money to pay for them." Well. '11 advance the tioney," ' Where will you get it." "Borow il front Mrs Dumpling, you fool! I owe Ihe old woman money now, and I always borrow more from her to pay it." "But she'll get her nuts from other dealers." "No she shall not; for I'll advance to them and get them to hold back, until she comes dlown in the end with an almighty price for all."- "I dout see how the old woman can live if you borrow all her money. and hold back that and groundnuts and ever thing." And suppose she holds back toe and refuses to buy the groundnuts. Sup pose she sends to North Carolina for her groundnuts-Suppose she turns to making cocoanut cakes. and dials more and more with old Remo Sambo, and Ali Pasha, and less with me, till she throws ine out of her list-And suppose she stops lnaning, what lhe Devil will you do? You sort of helongs to her. you know, for you sell yotrself)to her whenever you want to spec ulate. I tell you what Sambo. we better deal easy and natural with the old crittur. She's the richest and greatest ctistomer I have, and the natural price of eroundnits is the prioe she can in reason afford. If we were to he hard on her and break her, how would master manage? She lendi him all the money to make his roads and re-hu iki his brt't houses. and the capital to establish ;ill his grand banks. If she tireaks, it will smtash us all. Besides, hadn't we better sell to her reasonable. than send her to India and Egypt and South America for them. and tlen ha ve nobody to buy ours? What could we do then?" "Why, I dont know exiactly. if Mrs. Dumpling stops lending-we must borrow from somebody else; but it's a cur sed shalme that having paid somucl for thinus, site should now be so ill-natured as to otfer less. I'll see yot aain after I have issued my Groundnut Circular." New Stages.- We in v' recently noti'ed several splendid new Stage Coaches upon the line owned by ItPL:Y & DoUGLAS, from Anin,-a. Geo. to Asheville, N. C. Upon11i intlinry, we learn that they have nine new ones. They were mnanuflactured at 'roy, N. Y.. and tm point of elecance, strength, and comfort to passengers, we have never seen them surpased, ifequalled. Those that we have seen, have a patent reak at rached to each, by meants of which the driver can, by placit one foot upon a lever, entirely stop the turning of the hind wheels. This adds very Iuch to tine safe ty of stage-coach iravelling, especially in a hilly country, as it would prevent the hor ses from running, or fast and dangerous driving don n steep hills. The Aiken and Columbia lines are also supplied with fine conches aend teams-in fact, there is no section of the world where better and niore comfortable stage accom modations are to be found. than in the tap per part of South Carolina.-Greenville Mountaineer.

The British Naval and Militarv Gazette has given the following opinion of the Na val l-story of the United States, by Mr. Cooper: "We have pernsed this history with no little curiosity and with great interest. Considering the brief exislence or the A merican marine, its annals are more event ful, more romantic, and iore varions than any in existence. Nothing can sur pass the energy which enabled the United States to fori an effective navy, at a time when thev could hardly he said to have had a political existence, and when they were beset by greaterdiflculties tian any which an infant nation had ever yet to en counter. This consideration ha's aninia ted the present historian, whose enthusi asin seems to be kindled by his ofice of chronicler, even more than when he for merly songbt inspiration from the same source in constructing his famous stories of the sea. His national pride has, how. ever, not tempted him to be, afterthe man nter of his countrymen, vain-glorious as te gards his own nation, and abusive towards others. His work, accordingly, is more fair and candid than could have been ex pected on sueh a theme from an Ameri can pen. Altogether this history is a val nable one, and rannot fail to pass into uni versal circulation. The incidents which took place in the naval war with Tripoli are grander and more heroic than any thing in the circle of romance, and are detailed with all the vigor and animation of Mr. Cooper's ceniuis." A type-founder of Clermont. named Colson. has obtuined a pntent for a new material for prmting types, whieh j har der-, calpable of more resistance, and yet less expensive than the ordinary composi tion of' lead anil antimony. 'It is wvell known that types cast froti the bitter soon become worn, especially since the intro duction ofsieain printing.
