THE SEMISOLES.

The Seminole indians retire with slug
gish pace from the recent contest with our
troops, but half satisfied with the lenient
chastisement they have received and I'M
less rigourous measures are used TO nAimi-
daIe them, il is feared they may yet do
much mischief. A letter from the Falls of

our troops, and were determined 10 renew

the commanders on our southern boruer,

this cunning and inveterate enemy.

GENERAL CAMERAS BROTHERS.

We have seen Proclamation Of NJ. Lu-
zuriga, the Governor of the Province OF
Cuyo, one of the United Provinces of La
Plata, dated at Mendoza, the 9th April.
1918, explaining the causes which produ-
ced the trial and execution Of these ushap-
py young gentlemen. This document COM
pletely exculpates Puerreydon from ny
concern or share in their execution.
II states, as a fact fully ascertained and
proven, that the Careers had planned =
conspiracy, the object Of which was to
seize upon the government OF Cuyo, and to
put to death the governor and several other
persons in authority. Upon these charges
they were brought to trial, and convicted
on the 9TH of April. II was the wish of the
governor Luzurisga to postpone their fate
unit! the sentence could be transmitted to
Buenos Ayres, for the purpose of obtaining
the determination of the Supreme Director,
Puerydon but, such was the state of the
public mind al Cuyo, just before the vic.o-
ry OF Alaipu was known there ,thatthe juig-
es before whom the trial took place, press
ed their immediate execution, as measure
of Precaution and necessity. They were
accordingly executed on the 9Th, the day
after their trial-a fact which, Of itself, is
sufficient to acqut M. Puerrydon of any
odium which may be attached to the trans
action /; inasmueh as, from the great dis
lance Of Mendoza $1,000 or 1900 miles) it
was impossible for him to hear Of those pro-
ceedings, or TO have made any interference
IN behalf OF the persons convicted. We
know moreover, from ina,sputatle autkort;-
~, that, although the Director could not in
terfere with the local authorities of Mendo-
"a. so as 10 prevent the trial, it was his in
tenticn, in case Of their conviction, TO exer-
else the power Of pardon with wh.sh he is
vested) in their favor. This act Of mercy
was, however, prevented by the summary
proceedings at Mendoza. Luzuraga, in
his address to his fellow citizens, pledges
his life for the truth OF his statement, and
processes TO hold himself responsible to
them for the justice OF his conduct. Before
we close this article, i, may not be useless
to remark, that the practice observable in
the government and leading characters Of
South America, cG appealing to the people
upon all grea. public occasions in a rational
aad dispassionate manner, is an excellent
symptom, which indicates al once repub-
lican spirit in the rulers, and all increasing
influence on the part OF the people.

FARMING TO SOME PURPOSE.

A gentleman OF Frederick county, Mary
land, few days since sold his crop Of
wheat for the present year, for the hand
some sum of 9, 100 dollars! The same gen

hogsheads OF prime tobacco, which is now

FIRES.

On Tuesday night, about 9 O'Clock, FIRE
broke out in the back part Of the dwelling
house occupied by Mrs. Earl, in King.st.
Owing to the timely interference OF the ei-
tizens, it was extinguished before any ma
terial damage was done. And yesterday.
at | P. NJ. fire originated in stable be-
longing to n. Kecne, Esq. in Columbus-st.
which was entirely consumed. Although
the building was surrounded BY numerous
frame and brick tenements, yet the activity
of the citizens, and in particular the alert.
ness of the fre,nen, happily prevented the
fire from communicating to them, or doing
them any injury. The general belief is,
that in both instances the fire was commu-
nicated by incendiaries.
