TUESDAY MORNING, JUNE 14, 183 G.

New York papers to the 20th May were received here
yesterday. The New York Advocate of the 19th May
contains the following iutelligence relative to the insur-
rection of the Seminole Indians, and the war. in the
Texas :

(From the Charleston Courier, May 15,)

INDIAN HOSTILITIES.—COI. White of Florida, arrived In
this city yesterday, and departed in the steam packet for Wash-
ington, having obtained an appropriation of a million of dol. to
carry on the war, he had set out for a flying visit to Florida.
Learning at Augusta, that the whole militia force was dis-
banded, and no new levies called for, the General in •1 summer
quarters" luxuriating in the refreshing sea breezes of St. Au-
gustine, and Florida about to be desolated, he has called on the
Governors of South Carolina and Georgia, to send mounted
men to the Florida line, and to 'rallahas,e, to prevent a union
of the Creeks and Seminoles, and to save that beautiful region
from rapine and conflagration. The government have an aw-
ful account of responsibility to the country, for this most dis-
graceful Indian and servile war.
Tallahassee is a healthy country for military operation in
summer. Abundant supplies can be had froui New Orleans.
We hope these states will not wait for the formality of a reqnisi-,
tion from a United States officer. The whole South must see
that this war is terminated speedily.
Col. White saw and conversed with the nassengers who ar-
rived at Augusta, the night before from C.olumbus. There iS
no longer a doubt of a general Creek war. Fifty families are
reported to have been murdered, and 2000 people tied to Colum-
bus for protection.
The state of the frontier is most disastrous. There are not
500 effective men between the Creek and Seminole lines, and
all Florida will bo devastated, if the Governors of South Caro-
lina and Georgia do not send mounted men to the Florida line
and to Tallahassee.

From a gentleman resident of, and who left Columbus on
Tuesday last, we gather the following information. The lower
Creeks are decidedly hostile. The number of persons known
to be killed at the time of his leaving, was 11—among vrbien-
Major Flourney, already reported. A family consisting of a
man, his wife, child and servant, on their way to Columbus,
were all killed, except the wife, who escaped with two shots
through her hand. This happened on the old federal road, al
the Ochee Bridge, 12 miles wes,t of Columbus. Ihe Indians
have entire possession of that road, within that distance, and OF
the settlements in the neighbourhood, below the road—the sett-
lers having all fled.
A train, consisting of 150 waggons, with about 150 fugitives,
on their way to Columbus, were fired upon on Monday, when
the first waggon descended a hill. It is supposed that the Indians
got possession on the abondoned settlements of from 15.000 to
20,000 bushels of corn. They destroyed every thing on them--
furniture, bedding, &c. then burning the buildings. A ne•
Richard, we believe to be the name, who lived below Major
Flourney, abandoned his place after the death of the latter,
leaving two negroes in charge of it. He subsequently sent
three back to bring away the others, when they were all de-
tained by the Indians, four of whom were released, pretending
that it was their desire to join them again after going fur and
b ringing their wives.
The Indians bad sent word to Columbus, that they would,
born that place on a certain night, which time, however, bac;
passed when onr informant left. He subsequently conversed
with Col. Crowell, formerly Indian agent, whom he met it;
Augusta, he believes on his way to the seat of government, and
who left Columbus on Wednesday last, nothing further bad
transpired at that time. From the perfect knowledge this gee
tleman had of the Indian character, he seems satisfied that theY
are for war, the scalping of Col. Flourney being almost a cer-
tain indication of it, A party of about forty armed men went
on the road with the accommodation stage coach to pick nil
stragglers. They fell in on one of the settlements with a chil"
three or four years old, who could give no information of lit;
parents, they had probably fled. A known friendly chief, whcl
had been sent for to Columbus, returned for word that he could
not come, that his young men were beyond his control. The
communication beyond 1.2 a 15 miles west of Columbus, on the
old Federal road, being cut off, many more murders ;ban tie
above stated might have been committed, but of course could
not be known. From 1500 to 2000 souls were left in Columbus,
and the suburbs, that had left their homes and tied before e
savage foe. We anxiously look for further accounts.
The Mobile Chronicle of the 7th instant gives the following
from the Louisiana Advertiser, without date; probably of the
sth:

*TEX A s.—By a gentleman who arrived yesterday, we are cre-
dibly informed that Santa Anna hRs not been taken prisoner;
much less sentenced and shot, as stated by a contemporari
Journal. Our informant stated that there had been a fight, or
more properly speaking,• a skirmish, between a body of tba
Mexican army and another of the Texians, which terminate t
in a. complete route of the former, with loss on both sides, 1:3130,
principally on part of the Mexicans; and that Santa Ant?? !1,
far from being in the engagement at the time, was, and is,
the city of Mexico.

We have in another article alluded to the virulent
threats used by ministers and their satellites in the de-
bate on Thursday evening last. On Friday evening the
debate was resumed by Mr. S. 'CRAWFORD in a speeel,
at once violent and unconstitutional. We have to than'
him, however, for throwing an additional light oile,z;
the close connexion which subsists between his MajestY,,
ministers and the disturber of the peace and trannolilltir
of these realms. Our readers will have it in their rec°
lection that the vulgar Irish bully, who holds the esti
tive of this country in thraldom, in a letter whiCh he n‘'f
the unblushing effrontery to address to the people I.
England, declared that the amendments of the House °J
Lords should be rejected. Mr. S. CRAWFORD inquire
of him whether " the proposition of Lord JOHN RUBS 51,.
concurred with the sentiments expressed in that letter •.,
To this question Mr. O'CONNELL answered " -"Sic
