AMERICAN INDLEVS. --~- KIT T** *tom SIR ALEXANDER COCHRANE TO TILE GREAT. AND ILLUSTRIOUS CNIETS Or THE CREEK AND OTIII,II INDIAN NATIONS. Hear; 0 le brave Chiefs of the Creek and other Indian National The great King George, oy beloved father, has long wished to lineage the sorrows of his ,warlike Indian chiltlren, and to assist them in *aiming their rights and possessions from their bast and perfidious oppressors. The trouble nor Father has led In chigroring hit enemies beyond the great wattlis, he has hr r:gilt to a glorious conclusion • and peace is egaisi restated • amongst all the nations of Europe. The desire, therefore, which he has long felt of assisting you, and the assarance which be has given you of his powerful protection, he has now chosen as his chiefs by sea and land to carry into effectual waecution. Know then, 0 Chiefs and Warriors, that in obe. • dience to the Great Spirit which directs the soul of vol. Mighty Father, we come with a power which it were vain for all the People of the United States to oppose. Behold the great waters covered with our ships, from which will go forth an army of warriors, as minveroos es the whole Indian nations; inured to the toils and hardships of war—accustomed to Id-. umph over all opposition--the constant favourites of victory. . The same principle of justice which led our Father to wage a war of 20 years in favour of the oppressed nations of Europe, animates him now in support of his Indian children; and by the efforts of his war • riots, he hopes to obtain for them the restoration of those lands of which the People of the bad spirit Iwo lately robbed them. We promised you by our talk of last June, that great fleets and armies were coming to attack our foes; and you will have heard of our having triumph antly taken their capital City of Washington, as well as many other places—beaten their armies in battle, and spread terror over the heart-of their country. Come forth then, ye brave Chiefs and Warriors, as one family, and join the British standard--the signal of union between the powerful and oppressed— the symbol of justice, led on by victory. If you want covering to protect yourselves, your wives, and your children against the winter's cold, — come to us, and we will clothe you. If you want arms and ammunition to defend yourselves against your oppressors,—come to us, sod we will provide • you. Call around you the whole of your Indian brethren—and wo will show them the same tokens of oar brotherly love. And what think you we ask in return for this bounty of our Great Father, which we his chosen warriors have so much pleasure in offering to you ? Nothing more than that you should assist us MD. folly in regaining your lest lands—the lands of your forefathers—froin the common enemy, the People of the United States; and that you should hand down those lands to your children hereafter, as we hope we shall now be able to deliver them up to you, their lawful owners: and you may rest assured, that whenever we have forced our enemies to ask for a peace, our good Father will on no account forget the welfare of his mach.loved Indian children. Again then, brave Chiefs and Warriors of the In dian Nation, at the mandate of the Great Spirit, we call upon you to come forth arrayed in battle to fight the great fight of justice, and recover your loug-lost freedom. Animate your hearts in this sacred cause— unite with us as the sons of one common father, — and a great and glorious victory will shortly crown our exertions.

Mom fimMi• GREAT AND ILLUSTRIOUS WARRIOI4 We have received the letter you sent to us by Colonel Nicol's. You say well, great Chief, that our breasts are filled with the glorious love of liber ty, and, protected by our greet and good Father,we will live or die free, of which we have given hard proof, by choosing to abandon our country rather than live in it es slaves. We thank you for the sop. plies you have sent and promised to send ; we receive them with unbounded gratitude: hot for them we should all have perished. Be pleased to send our love and duty to our good end great father, King George. He hes shown that be has not forgot his once happy children, and we bless the Great Spirit for freeing him from his enemies in Europe. Our long absence from him we liken to the longings of a father for a lost son ; our happiness like a father who has found one. Your sons whom you have sent to our aid we bail as brothers on the shores of the sea, but we hope soon to embrace them in the laud of our forefathers. Our distress has been beyond the power of our tongues to tell you; we were driven from oar homes, and our clothes and household utensils taken from us. From that time until we took your sons by the hand, fa mine, nakedness, sad their aceompsoying miseries have been oar lot. Our tethers were true mu to .-. \ TIIE STATESMAN. your fathers: they told us to be so always. They are dead, but their truth remains with ss, and 6e implote our good.

The Chief you have sent to es we receive as we ought ; we would obey bins in all things. We have made him our kind warrior and Commander.in.Chief. We will get all the black men wean join to your warriors. - We thank you also for your promise of protecting our rights on a general peace taking place. We will de our best to unite ell our red brethren, and form a strong arm, that will be ready to crush the wicked and rebellious Americans, when they shall dare to insult our Father and his children. We hope you wilt always keep a Chief here with us, for as long as he stays among us, our ways will be shown to us, and we will walk in them.

LONDON: SATURDAY, A UGUS T 15, 1818. .........-- It would certainly be very unwise to place much faith in the inferences drawn from the gambling transactions of the Stock Exchange, though it is very common in certain quarters when the Finds are ris ing to deduce from thence proofs of increasing pro. verity and happy prospects ; but if the market of Stock is any criterion of political events and circum stances, it would appear from the depression that has taken place, and the rush that has been made into the sale market within these two days past, that some important changes are expected, and that these occurrences are not conceived to be of a nature to elevate the prices of the national commodity, which is so symptomatic, and now so mock regulates other affairs.—Large sales of Muck were again effected yesterday, through chin. eels sufficient to awaken suspicion that the political hemisphere is darkening, and that the eye of appre hension is again turned towards America. Some of our cotemporaries ascribe this motion in the Funds to numerous orders from Country Bankers for the sale of stock to enable them to supply the increasing demands of their commercial customers ; but to our knowledge several of these sales were made by houses concerned in the West India trade, and but little connected with Country Bankers. The same effect was still more perceptible to-day, Consols having been done at one o'clock so .low as 7b. The potties selling, and the quantities sold, certainly warrant a belief that a strong opinion prevails among those likely to be best acquainted with the secret, that discussions are on the Lapis between this coun try and America, not of a very pacific nature. We have never been impressed with the permanency of the peace with America. It appeared to be iiirddled up for the purpose of covering. the egregious oversights of the Ministry, and the disastrous consequences of the war. The arrangements were, therefore, loose and unspecified in the most material points, and the results to be naturally expected, have already - be come apparent. The Treaty of Ghent will be found, as we remarked on its first appearance, to contain no espress guarantee for the rights of our Indian Allies, who had been disturbed In the enjoyment of their natural possessions in consequence of their en tering the war with us. The only stipulation in the Treaty respecting the Indians whom we incited and led to hostilitysagainst the Americans, allows the re storation of their lands and the peaceable enjoyment of their possessions to depend upon the conception formed of their good behaviour by their rivals, though it is proved beyond all doubt, byincontestable documents, that at a pacification the British Govern. meet would provide a solemn guarantee for the rights and safety of its injured Allies. Ministers abstained, they tell at, in this 'Treaty, as well as in t he other Treaties which they had concluded in -En. rope, from giving or esacting gairsatites, upon principle, from implicating the (internment in fa: lure in' the consequences of kgearantees. They and their agents, boWevir, did not . 'abstain upon 'principle, from implicating the poor indiens in the horrid war they were then carrying on, as will appear from the estraordinary correspondence we publish this day between Sir A. COCHRANE and the Indians, bearing date in December, 1814, the very month in which -the Peace with America teas signed: end it remains to be seen whether their agents have not been con►inuing the incitements to hostility between the Indians and the Americans which are assigned as the causes for the vengeance that has fallen upon the victims on the Florida frontier—whether Great Britain can espouse the cause of these men, without becoming the patron and apologist of such offences, for the law of nations subjects persons found in arms among a foreign prople, to be classed with them, and to be sharers of their fate. City, Holflotst One o'Clock. The Fonds experienced a considerable depression this morning, in consequenie of an apprehended rapture hot vrotsn this country and America—Consois opened at 764, and fell as low as 75. They after wards advanced to 75, which is about their . present prier. , . The accounts published respecting the QUERN re present her IVlAJEsve's health as continuing to im prove. She is said to base rode out in her garden chair in the pleasure.g►ounds attached to the Palace at Kew, on Thursday last, for upwards of an hour, and to have appeared much refreshed and very cheer ful. We have heard very different reports of her MAJESTY'S situation from these flattering represents. tions, but the private rumours cannot be correct ; for it is not in the nature of things that the PRINCE RE GENT should be indulging in festive celebrations at Brighton, that any of the nearest relatives of the illustrious Patient should betake themselves to fo reign climes, or to piping and dancing anywhere, whilst their beloved and venerable parent was under• going operations on which her life depended. --f The French Ropers which hews reached no to the 12th inst., still afford no intelligence of any Interest. Though the publication of the Secret Memorial of the Royalists to the Foreign Powers, exposing the pretests and objects of the late Conspiracy, has oc casioned much speculation in the Journals, and turned public attention in a still stronger degree to• wards the machinations of the plotting faction; there is no mention of the legal proceedings.

Tie King on Sunday had alievee of Ladle, and among thereat gives privet' audience to the Duchess of BRUNsWIEII Betrays, the relation of Mademoi selle DE ST. AULAIRE, the intended bride of the Count Ds CAZEs, the Minister of Police. The marriage of the Minister was to take place on Tues day morning, in the Chapel of the Palace of the Chamber of Peers. The King also received, at a private audience, on Monday, the Count nu CARA. MAN, the French Amhaaaador to the Court of Vienna, who had returned from thence on leave; end the Count nu LAQARDE, the French Minister to the Court of Munich. The Prussian Council of State, which has closed its deliberations, has formally declared. that the de finitive organization of the Grand Duchy of the Rhine should he postponed till neat winter. The principles established by the Decree of the High Court of Appeal of Hesse•Ciessel, relative to the non. payment of debts contracted by the Sovereign or the State during the reign of .IBROME BONAPARTE, has crested a lively sensation in Berlin. It is said that the King of PRUSSIA had ordered the same principles to be acted epos in all analogous matters throughout ' the Prussian Provinces which formerly made part of the late kingdom of Westphalia. The Elector of lizsse•Casstr. is said to be occupied with important affairs. Interesting communications have recently been made to his from the Prussian Goternment, re lative to Westphalia, perhaps on the subject above al luded to. It is said the result will he made known in a few days by certain measures about to be adopted. The French Five , per Cents. are 78f. 20c. •We are glad to hear that the Meeting of the Friends of Radice! Reform, adtertised to be held at the Horns Tavern, Kennington, on Tuesday nest, is likely to be very numerously attended, and many of the first political characters are espected to be present. Yesterday the Portage's@ Ambassador had an se. dience of the PRINCIL REGENT at Carlton-house ; as had also Sir JoHN BORLASE WARREN. The Archduchess HENRIETTA,CORSort of the Arch- duke CHARLES of Arndt', was happily delivered of an Archduke on the 29th ult. at ten at night. It is reported, that on the Meeting of Parliament, Sir JOHN Osnonts, Bart. will he called to the House of Peers as Lord Hamra', by which a Represent.- lion for the County of Bedford will become vacant. Lord STRANOPOUD, the British Envoy in Sweden, has succeeded in obtaining from that Court a Decree, authorising the exportation of deals and timber, in British shins, on the payment of she same export duties as in Swedish vessels. Several thou sand tops of shipping will consequently be sent from British ports during the present season, to receive cargoes in those of Sweden. This permission is to last until the end of this year; but it is almost cer tain that the advantages which Sweden will derive from the increased exportation of her produce, will induce his Swedish Majesty to prolong it. • .. , rNT tiis li nt.,l N We some time ago inserted that took place in St. Helena, O'Meara from attendance en I are assured that the following of the Protest madehy the Co. dismission of that Gentlemen " Gnomon& 6 6 MONSIEUR LE COUVERN- - - made known to me yesterday an order emanating from you, this Island.
