such pppressinns the Antrim Government must use
not only all their influence, but, if necessary, all their
force, or their names will be handed down to poste-
rity as a nation more cruel and savage to the unfor-
tunate Aborigines of this country, than ever were the
Spaniards, in more dark ages, to the nations of
South America. .
".The-English Government, as the special prow
tors of the Indian Nations, and on whom they alone
rely for assistance, ought to seep forward and save
those unfortunate people from ruin ; and as you, Sir,
are appointed en watch over their interests, it is my
duty, as an Englishman, and the only one in this
part of the Indian Nation, to instruct you of the
talks the Chiefs bring me for your information ; and
I sincerely trust, Sir, you will use the powers you
are vested with, for the-service of those unfortunate
people, who look up to you as their saviour. I have
written General Mitchell, who I heard, is an excel.
lent man ; and as he acts as Indian Agent, I hope his
influence will stop, the torrent of innov,ations, and
give peace ancrquietnets to the Creek nation. I One
your Excellency will pardon this intrusion, which
nothing but the urgency of the case would have in-
duce,l me to make:—l have the honour to be, your
Excellency's most obedient servant. ". A. A."
(R.)—From Cappiehimico and B.rtvleck, to Governor Cameron.
"To His Excellency Governor Cameron—lt is
with pain we arc again obliged to obtrude ourselves
on your Excellency s notice, in consequence of the
cruel war we have been forced into by the irruptions
of the Americans into the heart of our lands. It v. ill
be first necessary to state to your Excellency, that
one head chief (Kinnijah) received a letter from
General Gaines, in August last, a .copy .of, which
,is
enclosed, with the answer returned thereto. This let-
ter only appears to have been a prelude to 1 tins de-
termined
on by the said General, and General Jack-
son, to bring on troops and settlers to drive us from
our lands, and take possession of them ; for, in thc
end of October, a patty of Americans surreandei
Fowl Town during the night, and in the morning
began setting fire to it; making the unfortunate in-
habitants fly to the swamp, and who, in their flight
had three persons killed by the fire of the Americaos.
Oar io:rans, rallying. drive the AmericAns•frotti the
town, hnt, in their erc:.tions, had two more of their
people killed. Tile American, retired some distance
and boat a fort or block ?louse to protect themseleJs,
until the assistance they had ,en: for to the fort up
the country, should arrive. A letter falling into the
hands of General Mitchell, the Indian agent, which
states the Indians to have been the aggressors, he
suspected its truth, and, on inquiry, found it was the
reverse; in consequence, he made satisfaction to 1..-
hantocklo, the chief of Fowl Town, and his people,
for the injaries they had sustained ; at the same time
desired a talk to be sent to our land chief, stating
his wish to see all the Indian friends, and that in tia)
days be would send and get the Americans to retire
from the lints. But this had no effect on the lawless
invaders of our soils; for, before the hearer of our
talks could return home he met hundreds of Amei i-
cans descending on us. They have also settlers alai
troops, whiCh come from Mobile, niulgo up the Ai,-
pahichicola liver. Thus, seeing no e.,d to those i,.-
toads, necessity compels us to have recourse to arms,
and our brethren are nt.w fighting t.'r the lands thee
inherit from their forefathers, for their tainilis and
frie:ids. But what will our nations do wi,lio.it as-
sistance? Our sinews of war are almost spent ; and
harassed, as we have been for years, we have out
been able to lay by the means for our extraordinary
wants, and to whom can we look up for protection
and support, but to those friends who have, a all
former times, held forth their bands to upli us,
and who have sworn, in their late treaty w th the
Americans, to see our just rights and privileges re-
spected and protected flout insult and aggressions?
—We now call upon your Excellency, as the repre-
sentative of our good father King George, to send us
such aid, in ammunition, as we are absolutely in
want of; and, as our brother chief Ilillisajor, was
informed, when in England, that when ammunition
was wanted, to enable us to protect our rights, your
Excellency would supply us with what was neces-
sary. We have applied to the Spaiish Officer at the
fort of St. Marks, but his small supply prevented
his being able to assist us, and we have only on your
Excellency to depend. We likewise pray your Ex-
cellency would be pleased to send an Officer or per-
son to lead us right, and to apportion the supplies
you may be pleased to send us, agreeable to our pro-
per wants. In praying your Excellency to lend an
ear to our demand, and dispatch it without delay,
we remain your Excellency's faithful and most obe-
dient friends and servants, " CAPPACHIStIeCO,

Inehnures in Letter marked C.
From A. Arbuthnot to the lion. Charles ilagot.
Sir—k is with pain I again obtrude myself
upon your Excellency s notice; but the pressing, soli-
citations of the Chiefs of the Creek Nation, and the
deplorable situation in which they are placed by the
wanton aggressions of the Americans, I trust, your
Excellency will take as a sufficient apology for the
present intrusion. In August last, the head Chief of
the Seminole Indians received a letter from General
Gaines, of which Ibave taken the liberty of annexing
your Excellency the contents, as delivered me by the
Chief's head English interpreter, with King Ilatchy's
reply thereto. This letter appears to have been in-
tended to sound the disposition of the Chief and as-
certain the force necessary to overrun the nation;
forjrmn then until the actual attack was made on.
Tow Town, the same General, with General Jack•
son, seem to have been collecting troops and settling
in various quarters. If your Eicdlency desires the
whole information respecting the situation of this
leountry and its inhabitants, 1 can, from time to time,
Worm your Excellency of such facts and circum-
•stances as are stated to me by Chiefs of known vera-
city, or which may come under my own observation ;
and your Excellency's order, addressed to me at New
Providence, will either tind me there or be forwarded
me to this eduntry.—With great respect, I have the
honour to be your Excellency's most obedient servant,
" A. A."

(U.)—" Sate of Indian talks."

" In August, Capp had a letter from General
Gaines, in substance as annexed, No. 1, and returned
the answer as by No. 2. Nothing further was said
on either side. The end of October, a party of Am&
ricans, from a fort on Flint River, surrounded Foal
Town dating the night, and begun burning it. The
Indians then in it fled to the swamps, and in their
flight had three persons killed by fire from the Ame-
ricans ; they rallied their people, and forced the
Americans to retire some distance, but not before
they had two more persons killed. The Americans
built a block-house, or fort, where they had fallen
back to, and immediately sent to the fort up the
country, for assistance, stating that the Indians were
the aggressors and also settled with Inhemocklo
'for the loss his people had suffered, at the same time
sending a talk to King Hatchy, by a head man
(Aping) that he would put things in such a train as
to prevent further encroachments, and get those
Americans to leave the fort. But no sooner was the
ood talk given, and before the bearer of it returned
home, than hundreds of Americans came pouring
down on the Indians ; mused them to a sense of their
own danger : they flew to arms, and have been com-
pelled to support them ever since. It is not alone
from the country, but by vessels entering the Appa-
laebicola river in vessels with troops, and settlers are
pouring in upon the Wilts territory, and if permit-
ted to continue. will soon overran the whole of
the Indian lands. From the talk sent King Hatchy,
by Governor Mitchell, I am in hopes those aggres-
sions of the Americans on the Indian territory are
not countenanced by the American Government,
but originated with men devoid of principle, who set
laws and instructioas at defiance, and stick at no
cruelty and oppressive to obtain their ends. Against

Nacsau, N. P. te6th August, 1817.
" Lieutenant-Colonel Edward Nicholl.—Sir, Espe-
cially authorized by the Chiefs of the Lower Creek
Nation, whose names 1 affix to the present, 1 am de-
sired to address you, that you may lay their com-
plaints before his Majesty's Government. They de-
sire it to be made known, that they have implicitly
followed your advice, in living friendly with the
' Americans, who are their neighbours, and nowise
attempt to molest them, though they have seen the
Americans encroach on their territory, burning their
towns, and making fields where their houses stood.
Rather than make resistance, they have retired lower
in the Peninsula. The town Eachallaway, where
Olis Micco was Chief, is one instance of the en.
croachments of the Americans. This town is situated
under the guns of Fort Gaines, and Micas was de-
sired to submit to the Americaus, or his town would
be blown to atoms; rather than do so he retired, and
is now living in the Lower Nation, and his fields,
and even where the town stood, is ploughed up by
the Americans. They complain of the English Go.
vernment neglecting them, after hiving drawn them
into a war with Ammica that you, Sir) have not
