been ascertained that a part of Aligator's
tribe is opposed to the treaty and making their
way to the Suwanee river, where Capt. Beill
of the Dragoons, who camps here to night, is
going with his company to scour the country
and meet them. Should the expectation of
Capt. B. prove true, I look forward to receive
orders on to-morrow to go up perhaps as far
as the mouth of the Ockiawaha with one my
companies, and one company of the Florida
Dragoons under Capt. Ross, "for tiie purpose
of scouring the country and capturing a band
that is said to be at the mouth of the Ockiawaha
or at RediLake 12, or 15 miles off. We
will start in a few days should we be ordered
out.
I have now orders from Col. Crane, however,
commanding at Ft. Heileman not tomake
any hostile incursions upon the enemy until
farther orders, as it was an understanding between
Gen. J. and the Chiefs that hostilities
should cease until after the council. 1
My own opinion is that even should the war ,
end, or a treaty be made we will not sooner
be discharged than when the time of our ser
vice expires. I am not of opinion however that
the Indians can yet be brought to consent to
go westward, and think that the council will
result in a refusal on the part of the Chiefs
to sign such a treaty. I
There is published in the Columbus (Ga.)
Enquirer a communication from Maj. Henry 1
W.Jarnigan of Lumpkin, Stewart county, 1
from which we gather the following facts. 1
Maj. J. upon receiving intelligence of Col. <
Welborn's battle with the Indians, called for ;
volunteers, who elected him to the command, ,
and set out in pursuit of the Indians on the 1st ,
?of Feb. crossing the Chatahoochee at Florence.
At Welburn's battle ground, they joined
the companies of Gen. W. and Capt. Morris .:
of Ga. Near this place they came upon the I
tresh tracks of Indians who, seeming to have
discovered the whites, turned back. Tke trail
was pursued and led iu the direction of the ,
Indians, camp on Swamp Creek, in charge of
Lieut. Sloan of the U. S. Array. Being sat- '
isfied that the Indians were of the number professing
to be friendly and in charge of Lieut.
Sloan, a message was sent to this officer requesting
him to meet the officers of the volunteers
in council. He did so, with three Indians
and had a negro interpreter. He stated that
he about 60 warriors in his camp, and that 42
had refused to give up their arms and go.
A proposal was made to remove his camp from
the neighborhood ot the Swamp, the more cer
tainly W cut oft all communication with the
Indians who had deserted the camp and were
now, no doubt, hostile. lie refused, whereupon
a council of officers determined organize
a battallion of volunteers at once, and proceed
to remove the Indians, which was accordingly
done. Some of them attempted to escape, but
were prevented. More than 40 guns were
found in their possession, with a good supply
of ammunition. These guns with 30 others
found in possession of Lieut Sloan, where taken
into possession by the volunteers & spiked.
The number of effective men found in the
camp was 92. They are in charge oftwo companies
of volunteers. To this course the people
were driven by a sense of danger from the
Indians wliile under the management of the
U.S. Officer. v
The Steamer Cincinnati, Capt. Curry, arrived
here last evening from Black Creek via
Savannah, bringing us the Jacksonville Courier,
of the 16th inst. from which we extract
the following: Charleston Cour.
To the Editor of the Jacksonville Couyier:
Buck Credk, Feb. 14.?Sir?The Steamboat
John Stoney arrived at this place this
fnoraujg, in which Lt. Col. Fannin and Capt.
Piercy, of the U. S. Navy came passengers.
They report that a battle took place on the
morning of the 8th at Encampment Monroe,
at the head of Lake Monroe. This post
was attacked at 5 o'clock in the morning and
a brisk firing kept up by botli parties until 8
o'clock, when the Indians retired Col. Fannin
was in command of 30 friendly Indians.
Capt. Mellon, U. S. Army was killed. Lt. J.
T. McLauchlin and 14 privates were wound- 1
ed. The hostilcs were estimated at 3 or four
hundred strong. When the Indians retired,
the friendly Indians yelled at and taunted them '
all they conld to make them renew the attack
?but not a syllable or gun was heard from j
them. This account, as far as it goes, you
may depend upon. I had it from Capt. Piercy.
In haste, yours, &.c.
FROM TEXAS.
A slip from the New Orleans Bulletin by the
'Express Mail brings the following from Tex.es.
From the Texas Telegraphy February 10.
We understand that General T. J. Rusk
has resigned the appointment, of Secretary of
State, to which he was appointed, after the
decease of Gen. S. F. Austin.
Late Appointments by the President.
General J. Pmckney Henderson, Secretary
, of State.
Colonel Peter W. Grayson, Attorney General.
We learn from a gentleman who has just
arrived from Bexar, that a Mr. Nevarro had i
reached that place a few days before he left.
Mr. Nevarro is represented as being decidedly 1
friendly to our cause, and one whose statements
are entitled to credit. He states that
the Mexican force destined for Texas, consisted
of one thousand troops at Monterey; two
thousand at Saltiilo; two thousand at Matamoras;
and about one hundred at Laredo ;?
that they are in a state of insubordination,
badly clothed, and worse for many of whom
are in irons, and the remainder say they will <
6tay there and fight the Texians if they in
vade Mexico; but that will not nor cannot
be forced into Texas. He further states, that
Bravo had reached Saltillo to take the command
; but finding the army in such a disorganized
condition, and no money provided for
their pay, he had returned to Mexico in disgust.
Mr. Nevarro thinks there is no danger
of an invasion this year.
The above statements correspond with
tiews received from New Orleans, via Vera '
Cruz and Mat amor as. <
Notwithstanding the above information ]
which argues well for Texas, it is necessary
tfhat we should well organize our militia, and
be ready at a moment's warning; after which
we would say " plant corn."

Coffee.?The Americans are saw 10 uu uiu

be seen from the annual tables of exports from

American Silk.?We have within this ^

porated establishment of Samuel Whitmarsh, j
Esq., of Northampton, Mass., on Connecticut ,

ced the manufacture of Sewing Silk, Silk Vestings,
and other Silk fabrics. Three hundred (
acres of ground are attached to the compa- <
ny's works, and about one hundred thousand
Chinese mulberry trees are now growing
there, aud another season they will be multi- 1
plied to half a million. They then will be able
to feed about four millions of worms. It is '
said to be already the most extensive and well J
regulated silk company in the Union, and in J
tlie course of two years will manufacture silk k
fabrics to the amount of 8100,000 annually <
from the raw material created from worms on *
the spot. The raw texture of the silk is equal
to iie Italian, and the ladies prononnce it not <
inferior in heaviness and smoothness, the
latter defect a great fault heretofore with

from Campeacity with a floating bridge for the
use of the army, but it is thought that the want
oftmonev and the disinclination of the troops
to venture in that quarter will ultimately end z
in their being disbanded, as many officers sin- i
cerely wish that Santa Ana may dispose of '<
Texas and save their military credit and reputation,
which is already low enough. We !
have a report here that Bustamente is on his '
way to supercede Bravo.
