Governor Claiborne was here all laff week,
and being called by exprefs, left Matches yef-
terday morning. The Spanifh party that had
been fent to flop our exploring party (under
freeman) had arrived at the Caddo towns on the
Red River 90 days after our party had paiTet
the fame place. and finding the American flag
flying there, cut it down and rehnked the In
dams for fuffering it to be fet up, or us to enter
the Spaniih territory. The Caddo chief replied
that the Caddos were an independent people, s.
the Americans their friends, and they would
protect .hcm.
Sc The Spaniards fet off in purfut of our par.
~ up the Red River, but they had got $50, or
