THE SEMINOLE WAR.

We copy the following intelligence from the
Pensacola Gazette OF Saturday last:
"Ihe want OF any thing like regular commune
cation with the seat OF war, keeps us IN the most |
painful state Of suspense IN regard to the opera
tons of the army. Ii must be admitted, that the |
numerous obstacles which are known to stand III |
the way ofu suooes >fhI aud speedy termination OF
the campaign, are calculated to inspire fearful |
nrbodngs oiItS suits; and accident besides has,
We leal, done much to Illustrate the well arranged
plans of Gov. Call for supplying the troops IN the
field with provisions. We have heard that consi-
derabe supplies were ordered early in the cam
pagn to be sent from 81. Marks to the Suwannee,
and they did not reach their destination until weeks
after. according to the most liberal calculation.
they should have arrived II is said too, that
great quantity of corn and other provisions lu-
tended for the army. was deposited IN store
house at 81. Marks; the house, which was built
over tie water fell down with the weight which II
contained, and the whole of its contents were
ruined Then aganthe large steamboat Convoy,
containing IA very full cargo OF provisions deahn-
ed Tor Iampa Bay, sprung leak near this port,
aud put in he re in sinking condition; nearly her
whole cargo was damaged and much oft was tn
tirely ruined; and last Of ALL is the loss Of the
Lieut.. lizard on the bar of the Wlthlacoochee.
II is believed that the character condition and
resources of the Florida Indians are little under
stood, except by those who have actually witness
ed their mode of warelare. The campaign made
by General Jackson against the Florida Indians
eighteen wears ago, when they we're stronger than
they are now, Is often quoted TO prove that the
subiugaton ofthe SemInoIes is no such difficult
matter as it is thought; but it should be remember
ed that their condition was then quite different
from what it is at present. They we're then banded
together in small tribes. Every petty chief had
his town; the guides had no difficulty IN conduct
| inc Gen. jackson directly to them, and he sub
dued them IN detail Besides, they were not all
unlrlendIy to the whites. But nav they all fight
as one man. History scarcely furnishes paraI-
lei for the iideilty winch these people have shown
to one anote,. We hear OF no 81 Gle instance d
treachery or detection among them. Since the
war began, not one OF the hosliles has come out
from among his brethren. They have no town 10
defend and their women and children protect
themselves by flight The CLIMATE is their friend
too Summer winch brings dlseas and death to
their pursuers, has no terrorS for them, ana they
are strangers to the ngOrs OF winter.

The Rubicoa is crossed--the question is settled
,4labdma is salM We hare tiamphed most
gloriouSly.
ARrHUR B. BAGBY, Of Monroe, a firm and
unniuchng Van Buren, man, has been elected
Speaker OF the House of Representatives without
opposition. Our Opponents, ~ counting noses,
found themselves IN such a lean and morhtyng
minority, tina, they were ashamed to discover 1t to
the people by supporting man OF Their party
They hung their heads in sllence--they surren-
dered at discreon-ihey gave us the victory
without struggle. In the Senate, HUGH Nc
Way, an original, uniform and thoroughgomg Van
Buren, man, from the democratic Jackson Van
Buren, county of Lauderdale was elected over
Judge Samuel Moore OF PIckens, another Van
Buren, man by one vote. We regret seeing two
of our party opposing each other, but we have lost
nothing. The election of either would have been
triumph for our party. The White party is
prostate--the Van Buren, party is in a certain
majority of fifteen or twenty on joint ballot Our
most sangune expectations have been exceeded
by these elections. The last hope OF the oppo-
sition is to divide our party; but in this they will
be disappointed We can. and will elect Van
Buren, Senator by large maIority-we doubt We
~ much whether the White party takes up man
Of their party
This election will be hailed by the adninisra-
ton party every where, as highly suspicious to the
cause Tor which We are struggling. Il must con-
firm the lukewarnl, and mcite the determined to
renewed exertions, while 1t blasts the last hopes
of our opponents. Let the people speak oli, and
their voice will be echoed back from the Legisla-
- Hi I
Monday next--let them instruct their Representa-
lives at the ballot box, aud they will express then
wishes in the choice of United States Senator,
as they have done in the elections of to-day.

FAsHToN-THE SLEEVE.

FASHION-THE SLEEVE.
The milliners of London and Paris
have at length brought the long vexeG
question of the sleeve TO decision.
Hence forward, The mutton sleeve is a
vuIgarity, not to be tolerated, Victo
rine and Palmyre, the refining queens
of the mode in the French capital,
have provided several PrIncesseS and
Dutchesses with long sleeves made to
fit exactly the shape Of the arm. The
decree is therefore final. Hence forth
stlffners are mere drug. Every arm
and shoulder must now be admired or
condemned, according to its own mer
its. There is to be no hiding a wen,
or long, skinny meagre limb, in the
ample folds Of The gigO sleeve. The
older ladies of the two Courts oppo.
ssd the innovation with all their in.
luence, but the Princess Victoria and
the daughters of Louis Philippe know
the advantages of their youth, and in
sisted upon the change.
