FLORIDA.
The St. Augustine Heald 3tates that the whole party
of Co-a-coo-chee, (Wild Cat) 21 warriors, had only
three ounces of powder in their horns. Among the 16
tai en by Col. Childs, there was only one ounce.
The tbilowing items are extracted from the St. Augus-
tine News of the IBth inst.

There is thought to be every security now by some, in
this neighbourhood, because Wild Cat is out of the way.
This may lead to a neglect of proper caution. Sam
ras:,, the sub-chief of his party, is a bold and daring
fellow, and knows well the country ; and watchfulness on
the part of the citizen and traveller, is still requisite as
'heretofore.

A man named Harrison, was brought in yesterday

TOBISCO.—We. are indebted to the politeness of a com-
mercial house for several numbers of the Aurora pub-
lished at San Jean Baptista Tobasco, as late as the 27th
ult. It appears that the Maldonados faction, which
kept up an agitation in the State with a view to bring
about a military depotism, has been entirely broken
up and disorganized by the activity of the military
Commander, 1)on Francisco de Sentmanos. The Mal-
doaados has been for some time fomenting gplots, and
ha:; kept up a secret correspondence with Santa Ana.
The arrest of the leaders and the destruction of their
party secures the peace and prosperity of the free and
independent State of Yuctan.—N. 0. Courier.

MOST HORRID MDRDER.-OR Saturday evening last,
a little girl, about teu or eleven years old, the daugh-
ter of Mr. ;James Cochram, of Lincoln county, was
murdered in the most brutal maaner, by a negro man
belonging to Mr. Irving. It appears that the negro
had run away and gone to Harrodsburg celebration.
A few minutes before he committed the murder,
some angry words were passed between him and
the brother of the little girl. Meeting her soon after,
in the road, he inquired if she was sister of the young
man who had abused him ; she replied that she was.
Thereupon, seizing a rail, he struck her several times
upon the head, literally smashing her skull to pieces,
and causing her death to ensue in a few moments. He
immediately fled, but was pursued and taken the next
day. and committed to gaol in Stanford.—Kentuchy
RP, June 26.

TitE tAtors ON LONG ISLAND.—These, so far as we
can ascertain, are all flourishing. The corn looks e

THE Cp.c,pS.----The crops of this county have suffered
comparatively little from drought. We have frequently
had showers, and were last Saturday blessed with a
copious rain We are informed by the farmers from
and
m the
country that the crops, particularly of corn, grain,
grass, never looked more promising.—Portsmouth (N. H.)
Gazette, June 29.
The Skaneateles (Onondaga Co. N. Y.) paper of Fri-
day speaks of " the weather as fine, and the crops full of
promise." " The crops generally look extremely well."

The steamer Col. Harney has arrived at New Orleans
from Tampa Bay, for the purpose of conveying Wild
Cat back to Florida. The Chief and his band of fif-
teen, were shipped for that port in a schooner, which
has not yet arrived. It is stated that the other Indians
refia:e to come in to emigrate, unless Wild Cat, whom
they consider to have been unfairly nabbed, shall be
brought back and set at liberty.

Thera appears to be a rather better feeling among the
Cotton holders, consequent upon the foreign advices, al-
thon4h the saleS to-clay have been rather small, and with
no change in rates. The news from abroad has also tend-
ed to make the Flour market rather buoyant, although no
improvement in prices has been noticed to-day. We
quote Genesee 5 50 a 5,561, with some lots not strictly
fan,-!v at 55,64 ;Ohio 5,37 , a 5,50; Michigan !),31+ a 5,371 ;
