Having recently visited this watering place,
and found the accommodations so much supe-
rlor to what they have been heretofore, few
observations relative thereto may not be unn-
teresting. The efficacy of that water in re-
moving many complaints; its pleasant taste, &C.
are SO generally known, that they need no
comment. That establishment is now owned
and occupied by JONI HANNA &. Co. late mer-
chants of Harrodsburgh. They, with their
usual degree Of enterprise, have made every
preparation necessary for the comfortable en-
tertanment of those who call on them. Their
table is furnished with every luxury that the
country can supply, elegantly prepared their
bar with the best Of liquors, both foreign and
domestic; their beds and bedding are Kept in
the neatest manner possible, and their stable
plenti y supplied with forage. A sufficient
numbel Of excellent servants, are always in at
tendance and ready to perform their duty. In
short, whoever visits that watering place, Ell
Their for the purpose of regaining lostheaIth, or
of enjoying the elegant and refined soccty that
is to be found constantly there during the sum-
MGR and fall months, will be much pleased with

A treaty was concluded in this town
on the 3lst ult. between Col. .Auguste
Chouteau and Col. Benjamin Stephenson,
commissioners on the part of the United
States, and the chiefs and warriors of the
Kiokapoo tribe of Indians. The Kicka-
poos have Ceded all their lands south
east of the Wabash river, and the fol-
lowing tract of land, viz :-Beginning on
the Wabash, at the upper corner of their
cession of 1909; thence north westward.
ly to the line that separates the states of
Illinois and Indiana; thence with said
line to the Kapkakee river; thence down
the same to the Illinois river, and with
the line of that river to its confluence
with the Mississippi; thence in direct
line to the Vincennes tract; thence on
the western and northern boundaries of
their former cession to the beginning.
This tract contains between thirteen and
fourteen millions of acres. They re-
celye in exchange tract of land on the
Usage river, west of the contemplated
boundary of the proposed state of Mis-
souri,, and will remove there immediate
ly. They are to receive, also, an annui-
ty of two thousand dollars for fifteen
years, which is to be paid to them at their
village on the Usage.
BY this treaty the disputed claim to
the Sangamo country is extinguished,
and very large additional tract acquired,
to which the title of the Kickapoos was
indisputable.

4 REPORT having been circulated injurious
IA to the character of Thomas ARMSTRONG, it
5 deemed proper to publish the following Aft
davit, which will fully explain the foundation
of that report.
ILLINOIS TrnnIroRY,
Madison Coasnty, IS.
At the request of Thomas Armstrong per-
sonally appeared before me, Joshua Armstrong,
an acting justice Of the peace for said county,
Margaret Bridges, and made oath, that some
time in the month Of June, 1877, Thomas Arm
strong applied to her for money when he lived
with them, and that she told him he might go
to the chest and take what money he wanted
to use. At that time it was unknown to her
husband. She told him that he must return
what money he made use of as soon as he posi-
bly, could, which he did not till her husband
missed the money; but in short time after
he returned all.
Given under my hand and seal, this 9th day
of May, 1918.

Gen. San Martin daily expected at the
capital, and his presence would add spirit
to the efforts making to accomplish this
important object.
A declaration of war was expected to
he declared against the Portuguese gov
ernment, and that Monteyideo would
fall.
From the Jamaica Courant Of May 10,
received at Norfolk.
We understand when Col. Rafter (who
had retired into the fort at Porto Bello,
and defended it most courageously) I'M
derstood that sir Gregor M'Gregor had
got on board the brig Hero, he imme-
diately dispatched an expert swimmer
to that vessel, to ascertain his determina-
ton on the subject, and to learn what he
deemed proper to be done. The soldier
returned after short absence with direc-
tons for him to hold out TO the last ex-
tremity, and that he would collect all the
force of the squadron for their assistance.
Col. Rafter, conceiving that he was JUS
tilted, after this answer, to perish in de-
fence of the place, defended himself as
long as he was able, but, to his NORTH
cation, he found that shortly after
M'Gregor's answer, he had directed the
Hero's cable to be cut and sought his
safety in flight, by putting to sea in that
vessel.

YeHow Fever in PhiladeIlhia.-A
letter from correct source, dated Phila-
delphia, 9th ult. to merchant in Balti-
more, contains the following unwelcome
intelligence -
"You will no doubt have alarms of
the fever being in Philadelphia. A few
cases, IL is true, have occurred at Mar
ket-street wharf, and, out of seven per-
sons attacked, four have died. the others
have been removed, and we are in hopes
it will spread no further. Should it un-
happily prove otherwise, we shall advise
you of it from time to time, if we are
permitted to escape ourselves.
