General Gaines on the 5th instant as fol-
lows -" 1t is ascertained that the Indians
below the line, in conjunction with the
War-party, which includes the Semiuoles

us battle at, or near, Chatahouchie River
There are various reports as to the
strength of these Indians-from 500 IN 9
GOO. All agree, that war is inevitable
The Peacs-party (as they are termed) are
determined to render us no assistance and
complain that the Government has done
them injustice in withholding part of the
Treaty. The fact is, they want some
grounds on which they may have room TO

Selling and Buying SPECIE.

me WesfeTn Herald, printed ct Steu-

the Steubenvil Bank having sold Shecie out
OF its vaults, for Premium. The c.rcur3-
stances being m~de known to the public,
nave led TO the establishment of another
bank IN the town, in opposition to the old
rank. What Will make these facts the
more remarkable to some of our readers, is
that there IS no evidence of the Specie thus
furnished, having been sent cut oft!e coun-
try, and 1t appears to have been don zuitk

1t is reported in the diplomatic circles
that Butcher protested against the sum
monlng of Chambray, in the name of the
king, and even offered to protect the pro-
yisional government in the settlement of an
nterna p lwer, without any consideration
for the house of Bourbon. 1t is 10 Fouche
that the king is indebted for the dissolution
OF the provisional government. The Duke
OF Wellington has uniformly declared for
the constitutional party. This being the
TACT, 1t is not likely that Fouche has ten
dered his resignation according to the as
sertion OF the Courier. unless he has done
so to shew that he is invited by the king
himself, to continue his office.
