Battle betweea the indians and Poles.
1t appears from letter received this
week from respectable Polish emigrant,
at New Orleans, that about 20 of his
countrymen, not meeting with any means
of support, and totally without funds, de-
parted from New Orleans for Mexico, by
land, through the Texas country. Hay-
ing no guide, nor knowledge of the will
deraess route, they became utterly lost,
when they were fiercely attacked by a
numerous body of Indians. The Poles
had but few guns. but maintained along
and bloody conflict, until they had killed
large number Of their enemy. They,
however, suffered severely, having had
two of their number slain, and the re-
mainder wounded. Only one Pole was
able to reach New Orleans. -[Louisville

italists Of eminence, speak positively
as TO the determination of the Ameri.
can Government 20 obtain the whole
sum of 25,oOo,00of. To aggrayate
these approximations, Mr.. Livingston,
the United States Minister, has applied
for his passports. end am assured he
intends leaving Paris this night or to'
morrow. At half past three O'Clock
French Fives were at 1917. SC. and
Threes 76f. Csc. for the end Of the
month.
Most people understood from the
Monitenr, that the American llwould
be presented to-day 10 the Deputies
but there has been no House, and it
will only be introduced to morrow. 1t
is said that the Mouiteur's article was
deter mined upon by the arrival of the
news of the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS hav.
ing authorized the reprisals applied for
by General Jackson. 1 doubt it. A
French Secretary, i, is added, is to re-
main as Charge d'Aaaires at Wash
ington, and an American Secretary in
the same capacity here.
A correspondent, of the London Cou.
rier writes from Paris on the nth Of
January, as follows:
"The message Of General Jackson
to Congress, relative to France, has
provoked but one sentiment among all
parties-that Of indignant contempt |;
or, at least, something closely approx
mating to it. 1t certainly argues little,
but little, regard for the ancient ally to
whose aid America is in a great meas
ure indebted for her independence to-
day, and as little knowledge of the
respect due to a Representative Gov,
eminent. Had the Ministry been vio-
lentIy or unjust)y opposed to this claim,
the justice of which is not now the
question, the tone and tenor Of the
Presidents language could scarcely
have been more hostile. 1t is not,
however, by any means calculated TO
accelerate the grant Of the m oney, if
such were the objec. ofihe General, as
will be shown by the proceedings in
the Chambers when the law shall be
presented"
Another correspondent OF the same
Journal, wrote on the preceding day
as follows:
"The Government is much occupied
with the American question. ltissaid
that the King and the House OF Wells
were acquainted with the Presidents
Message four days before j, was in
upon Change. The King
is very DESTROYS of paying the 25,o0o,-
ooof. One proposal which has been
thought Of, was subscription among
the bankers and capitalists of the King
dom !; and, among other things, it is
reported that the principal banking
house of Paris, in order to avoid fall
in the funds, would willingly give two
of francs. But as it appears
that this plan could not be carried into
effect, the project will, no doubt, be a
gain submitted to the Chamber, and it
is possible tina. eventually it WILDE a.

place upon ii, M. Theirs, it is said,

Duke de Broglie, and now, should all
The partizans ofthe Ministry agree the
