The following extract of a letter from a friend in Columbus, of the 2Gth inst: leaves no doubt that there is yet much, and hard lighting to be done. " News has just reached us, that a small party of Indians came over to the Georgia side on yesterday, a tew miles above Koanoke, and attacked a small body of our men stationed there, and routed them. Five white men arc said to be killed, and several wouuued. "I have not had tiic particulars. I think you may rest assured, public opinion to the contrary notwithstanding, that the war has not yet closed/' * '1 \y C JC??riTy HIQk uauiui u iiuu token the most vigorous means to reinforce our troops in uic neighborhood of Roanoke, and Fort M'l'rtr , and for acting cfficetuly against the Indians, lit is going in person with a! 1 his disposable force iu pursuit of the enemy; Where is Gen. Jesup? and how" docs it happen that he has closed the war and disbanded the army, while the country is full of hostile savages! Augusta, July 29. We learn by a gentleman, arrived trura Columbus on Wednesday evening, '.hat a battle was fought in Stewart county, near fori 'Crary, about twcuty-cight miles below Columbus, between v party of about two hundred and lifiy hostile Creeks, and a part of two companies of .Georgia Troops, in all about uinety.roen, in which the latter were defeated, it is slated, with five killed?on the part of the Indians seven were found dead, and it is supposed about thirty were killed in all. As soon as the news reached Geu. Sanfurd, he irnmediately despatched six companies, himself at the head, with the determination Of clearing them cut of the country, before he returned. The gcntlcnjpn from whom we gain -this information, also stales that there is not the least danger to he apprehended by (hose travelling through the nation, by the stage route, as at every stand there is a strong military lorcc, auit goatd* accompany the stage from one post to the other.
