MILLEDeEvILLE, Sept. 16.

LIN fNOM a.
One of the Volunteers from this place
arrived here yesterday directly from .thc
camp in East Florida, having been dischar-
ged in consequence of ill health. The fol-
lowing letter was received by one of the E.
ditors from an officer of the Detachment.
East Florida, .We.u Switzerland,
Sc. Johns, Sept. Cd 1912.
We are on the east side of the St. Johns
40 miles from Augustine and 90 miles up
the river. There hasnothing yet been done
and of course not much can be said. How
ever we are now under orders to march in
to the Indian Nation, which is. about three
days march, and the only thing which de-
lays our expedition is the want of a few tack
horses and guides. We apprehend consi-
derabe difficulty in obtaining them, for we
have never received any assistance from
the inhabitants of this country, and if the
whole world were drained to the last dregs,
there could never be found such another col
lection as the constituted authority of this
province, l mean the Patriots-AltEough
we protect their lives and property, they
would willingly receive every soldiers KNAPP
sack in the detachment for a quart of milk
Unless we take by force both men ard hors-
es, we shall have to hock ourselves.
I'VE have to lament the increase of sick
ness in our camp, which augments daily
savage cruelty, and are encouraged no
doubt by the unfeeling Dons. Col. Smith
still remains in camp before Augustine un-
molested, but an attack has been expected;
the sickness Of his troops it is thought will
compel him to retire shortly. am anxi-
Gus to see this province in the possession of
the United States, but hope they will have
nothing to do with the Patriots.'
4 letter from another officer of the De-
tachment states, that from 80 to 40 of their
number were sick of inflammatory COM
plants, and Capt. Coleman Of Morgan was
quite ill--That the Patriots had hired two
Yankee Privateers to blockade the port of
Augustine, and that the garrison sup
posed to have very short supply of provi-
sions.
The Greeks, we understand, have sent a
deputation to the Lotchway or Seminole In
dams demanding repair alton for their late
outrages on our frontier contiguous to Flo
rida, and have sworn their determination in
case of refusal. a Council composed of
the Chiefs of both parties is to be held at St.
Marks the 18th of this month to discuss the
subject. Journa7
