will not be treated as foreign enemies, but execu.

\ letter frosa the Post Master at Coum.
bus dated 9th inst. received in Augusta,
states, that a man by the name of Philando
r. Broad, has been arrested and confined
in the Jail in Chambers county. Ala. on the
charge of being concerned in the attack on
the Stages, and robbing Of the L. S. Mail,
on the 10Th ult. The persons who arrested
him found on him broken letters and cnve-
lopcs Of letters that furnish almost conclu-
size evidence ofhis guilt, although while in
the act of arresting him, he succeeded in
destroying, by throwing in the fire, part
Of the contents of his pocket book.
The Millcdgevie Recorder, of the 7th
inst. says: "Our private advices from Co
lumbus, Gin addition 10 the details which we
have taken from the papers, inform US that
an express arrived at Columbus on the Sd,
(last Friday,) from Fort M'Cray, bringing
tho intelligence that the Crawford Infantry,
Capt. CARE, but commanded by Maj.

had a tight with the Indians on the same
morning. This company being informed
fhat the Indians had canoes and intended
crossing the river at Boykm's Ferry, march.
cd to the place and laid in ambush, when
shortly about sixteen Indians, in four canoes,
started across. The whites fired and three
Indians were seen to tumble from the ca.
noes into the river. The Indians on the
opposite bank then presented themselves,
and returned the fire. The firing continued
across the rivcr, until the ammunition ofthc
whites was exhausted, when they retired.
The number of Indians was computed by
the men at five hundred but is supposed to
be exaggerated. One white man was kill

mountains dividing the waters Of Chattahoochc
and Tallapeosa. The citizens of Charlottesville

lage, against the Indians that VIC supposed done
the murder; there we discovered dead body OF
a white man. We did not reach the bodies Of
others that were left unburicd. We also discover
houses of settlers destroyed with much dcstruc-
ton of property. After being satisfied of the In
dians that done the mischief, we went in search
took four prisoners, all we could find except two
who made their escape. We found all the h0u-
ses of the Indians in that quarter evacuated,
gone below as VIC understood. to join some Of the
Lower towns we burnt some of the houses, and
destroyedthc property-the prisoners are now at
TalIassee, hand -caffcd and guarded. We wish
