The Constellation left the squadron at

Gen. Jackson is at Apalac lacoIa, and that
he has written TO Gen. Gaines to hasten
his expedition against the Semnoles, of
which expedition Gen. Jackson takes the
command, aud that he intends to chastise
these Indians in an exemplary manner. as

MILLEDG EyILLE, Dec. l3.-GeneralG lascock

preparatory to the march of the troops for
Fort Hawkins. This morning an express
reached here informing gen. Glascock of the
arrival at the Greek Agency gen. Gaines.
hts object in returning to the frontier at the
present juncture, is probably to hasten the
movement OF the militia, whose aid, from the
smailness OF The regular force, is believed to
be necessary TO the commencement of often
siye operations. General Glascock has return
ed to Fort Hawkins, and the troops under his
command will no doubt march forthwith a.
