from The papers and letters from that quarter that the
Indians uvc disappeared III small bodies, and scattered
over the country, perhaps most OF them have gone to the

possible to route them during the present summer The
Georgia troops will be dismissed and are expected TO re-

Capt llebbard arrived yesterday afternoon from coa-
ia, Jacksonville, does not bring the least intelligence
of Gen Scott or any portion Of his army. We must
now wait with patience for information ria Tampa OF his
movements. We received from the editor the Jackson
vile Courier, but the following extract is ell IN relation
| 10 Gen. Scott wliich it contains. Gcorgian
| From the Courier Of The 2ist ut)
Nothing has yet been heard of Gen. Scott and his

at Tampa Bay, in exchange papers from the North
and West. Tie Indians seem ayerse 10 committing
more murders. Their trails in the vicinity of
Fort Drane und other parts Of that country, where. in
the unprotected Of that section, they might do great
mischief Apparently they content themselves with
plundeTng sufficient Tor their subsistence This indis
position to murder may be designed to put the nhabit-
ants of their guard. in the present uncertainty they
should lie wachlu lest they be made 10 the consc-
qurnces.
CuAELEsroS April 25.-Thc schooner Motion, Capt.
Wiley, arrived here yesterday from Jacksonville a.
/ FJ whence she sailed on Wednesday last. We learn
that up to the time OF leaving, information whatever
had been received from the Foridan army, and it was
the general belief that they had proceeded 10 Tampa
! Bay, without meeting the ndians-C Courier.
