NiiESE Springs are ready for the reception
L of 80 visitors. The cabins first are rate, fur

any thing to the numerous visitors who have been
at the table or IN the bar of tho hospitabIc and
trrprl>ng Manager, MI Charles l.. Dbrel We
dislike putting, but we believe we are fully borne
out IN saying, that better water, better table, or
better wines and liquors, cannot be found at any
similar establishment in the United States. The
roads are as good individual cxcrtion will allow.
by the next season we hope TO have turnpike
completed, that will cross the Natural Bridge and

WAeHlNGToN, Jan. II.

The accounts from Florida are truly dis
Pressing. The whole country is likely to be
overrun by the Ssminoies-whe burn every
house. lay waste every plantation. and MUIR
der every man, woman and child, as they ad.
vance. We had letters yesterday from Flor
ida, of the most melancholy nature. The
writers represent that they are unprotected,
incapable Of raising means to meet dozen
armed Indians, much less fifteen hundred,
and are falling INTERESTINGLY beneath the tom
ahswks and rifles oftheir savage and infuria-
ted foe. 1t is not in the power of this weak
government to afford any protection to the
people, before they are all killed. But after
the lapse Of some years there will be drawn
from the public Treasury, Ave million dollars,
more Or less, for the payment Of horses, sad
dies, and brides, lost in the war.

shirt with which the men fought, and charg-
ed into the swamp. put the Indians to h'ght'
aud siipnced their fighting.
The engagement lasted one hour and five
minutes.
AT the FIRST onset, the Indians on one flank
lsaped from their hiding places, and in front
Of the thicket formed boldly into line, with
Powell at their head. At this moment The
fire Of the whites did execution; the lnolans
broke, taking to their covert again II Is

llIc bushes literally cut up around us-how !
was that more were not shot cannot tell.
The Indian Agent, Wiley Thompson, Lieut.
Constantine Smith, Erastus Rogers, and TIVE
others murdered by the Indians. On Mon
day the gath nit. a party of ten men dining
the house Of Erastus Rogers, sutler at Cam
King, were fred upon while sitting at table
by party of Indians. The house was no
ESQ yards from the Block house. Roger
was sitting at the head Of his table, when tn
first intimation given Of the presence of tn
foe. was a voley of, it is thought, at least 10
shot, poured in upon them through the ope
door.
The Indians rushed upon the house. Thos
in, not killed, sprang out of it. at the VIE
dows on each side. Five fleeing from Cam
King, escaped. The others fleeing for ham
mock close by, were shot down.
A negro woman, the cook. ran bchlnd tn
counter, {this house was used by Rogers rs

The Eve of this party slain, were, Gen

and Hitzler. Through Gen. Thompson wer
shot fifteen bullets, and sixteen through Ro

scalp clear round the head as far as the hal
extended, and then beating in their sculls.-
The heads of Rogers and Suggs. were shock
ingly mangled. All this was done in ope
