CAPTAIN HoLLoMAN'S DEATH.
The Apalachicola Gazette, date d the
18th inst. contains the latest informa.
ton relative TO the exposed situation
OF the brave fellows under Captain
Holloman, at the Block house at the
Wyihlacoochee, and the death of that
Inflated officer.
Colonel Wood arrived on Wednes.
day last from Tallahassee. We learn
from hun that, before he left Tallahas-
see, three individuals had arrived there
from Capt. Holloman' command. ON
the Wythlacoochec. The accounts
they bring from the brave fellows, in
the very heart Of the enemy's country,
are well calculated TO arouse the feel.
ings Of every patriot.
IL seems they were ordered 10 this
block house on the 9th of April. and
they have subsisted ever since merely
upon corn and water The Indians
have gwen them very little respite:
pressing upon them in vast numbers.
On Ohc occasion they were attacked
on all sides by not less than one thou
sand Indians. Capt. lloIloman's men
returned their fire with effect. They
pressed upon the block-ho in such
dense masses, that every shot of the
brave defenders took effect. After
this contest, which terminated so ia
tally to the Indians, they failed To show
themselves for several days. IL was
during this respite, that Capt. IIolloman
undertook "a strengthen III, deicuccs
between the block house aud the river
but while engaged in his duty, he was
shot down by the Indians. The balance
Of the party secured their retreat 10 the
house. This fact showed the begciocd

AT the end Of thirty minutes. the
horses were again summoned by the
bugle 10 the starting post. Bascomb
made false start and ran nearly n
quarter OF a milo before he was stop
ped, and being again placed at the
usual signal both started I'm beautiful
style-Bascomb taking the inner track
and leading. Never on any occasion
was a moro beautiful race than this
seen. Throughout the whole ( miles
the horses were close on each other.
Occasionally Bascomb would increase
ms speed and leave his rival few
lengths behind, but By the free appn-
cation of the whip and spur, Post Bow
was urged to his former position. and
although repeated attempts were made
TO push him ahead Of Bascomb. they
were also defeated by the consummate

he rose rapidly To- distinction among
the congenial spirits by whom he was
surrounded. He was sent 10 Congress,
but IT does not appear that he attained
To any great influence or consideration
IN that body. His early education was
defective, and his mind was not cast in
4 proper mould TO fit him for a distin.
gulshed participation in the labors Of n
dcliberative assembly. He was short
y afterwards chosen Governor of Ten
neSsce, and il was at this period that
an event occurred, which drove him
from the society of his friends. and
destroyed all his brillian, prospects,
tie was married TO a very amiihlc and
beautiful woman, but in the course of
very few weeks, she claimed the
protection of her parents. and refused
10 live under his roof. Popular indig-
nation was reused against him, and.
abandoning the gubernatorial Office. he
assumed the dress and habits of an In
dian, and took up his abode with some
OF the southwestern tribes. Here he
became great favoritc Of an aged
chief, and acquired influence and dis
junction among his savage associates
Feeling aggrievcd at some mcau,ious
reflections upon his character which
fell from member Of Congress. he
came on 10 Washington, inflicted sum
mary punishment upon the offending
