| THE WAft NpJ i NDED YET.
| On Sunday morning lest a wcrerc engage;

and ifcc Indians, in the neighborhood

; We bare not received the particulars of the
! figlh, but learn that information was given to
i the forces stationed at Fort Mct'rary, that
| fresh signs of the Indians had bW?u discoverjed
in a swamp in Mr. Quail's plantation ;
. upoh which Capt. Cnlhtun, of Dekalb -coun;
t j, with a command of ninety men, were despatched
in pursuit of the enemy -In scour|
ing the place a fresh trail was found, leading
j out of the swamp in the direction of Lump'
kin. it urns followed. In a slum time the
j party came up with a small.gang ol Indians,
of thirty or more, and commcnctd the fight.
The Indians soon fled, leaving seven of their
number killed. The u lutes, after the first
skirmish, supposed the Indians whipped and
. the fight over; but they found that ibis advance
party was a mere decoy, to draw them
i ito ti . midst of their eucraics, by whom
thev soon found themselves comnletclv fiauk
. cd on both sides. The bau!e was renewed,
bur the ammunition of the whites being exhausted,
ihrjr wero compelled to retreat Ii
