In order to a,lay public anxiety, WHICH
has been for some time on np-toe, relative
TO the Talk lately held with the Creek
Indians at Fort Jackson, we have taken
considerable pains to get the most anthem
tic information on the subject. BY gentle
men of undoubted veracity, lately thro'
the nation, and who arrived here last eve
ming, we learn that the conference has GER
tainy broken up, without efecting its OBJ
lect That the Big Warrior and his party
(who lately fought with the United States)
together with several tribes who had been
at war against US, have determined to OPP
pose, to the extent of their means the run
ming of the line. Tie Big Warrior stated,
that III either case, entire destruction to
their nation was Observation-Disclosures if they
suffered the line to be run, their country
would be too limited 20 subsist by hunting,
and that they had as well die by the sword
as with famine-het they had been de- eiv-
ed-that his party had been promised pay
as regular soldiers in the service of the u
nit d States-that their pay WAS now de-
MED them-aud that they felt it right, in
consequence, to hold possession of their
lands. The Indians were moving Of from
the road, and Showed evident signs of dis
satisfaction, though no hostilities or depre-
dations have been committed.
