gentleman handed him the decanter bui as
he was pouring from il somewhat literally The
gentleman who sat pext him, on the other

After this sally. which called forth very

and the celebrated companion of Richard p.
Robinson, was charged on three indictments

Gray is the individual whose cloak Rich.
ard P. Robinson had on on the night of the
murder. and whose cloak was found in the
yard in the rear Of Thomas street. While
Robinson was in prison at Bellevue, Gray
was also there, and they contrived during
that time to keep up a correspondence by
letter, with each other. After Gray's arrest,
o letter written by Robinson to him, whilst
both Of them were in prison, was found upon
him, in which Robinson states that he himself
would be tried on such day, acquitted on
such day, and that he, Gray, wanted to get
clear of his wife and to get married again,
that he would be able, when he got out, to get
divorce from his wife, as he, Robinson, utter
his acquittal, would go and ,seduce her, and

accomplished in those directions in this war.
No official report had been received up to
the time of my leaving Roanoke, from Col.
Beall and Capt. Jeriagar, who commanded
the two detachments of horse sent by me on
the 25th ultimo in pursuit of the party of In
dams who had crossed the Chattahoochee on
the 23d and Oath. know, however, through
respectable channels, that the two detach-
ments had overtaken the Indians about the
28th, in Baker county, and had surrounded
them in a large swamp. The fugitives pro-
baby do not exceed sixty warriors, although
represented by rumor to amount to more than
three hundred.
Col. Beall. again hope, will give good
account of them. He was collecting the for
ces of the neighborhood to make sure of his
game. By singular mistake into which
was led by letter supposed to be from this
officer, but which was written by another,
did hun great Injustice in my last report of
events in this quarter. hope soon to be a.
BILE officially to speak with him with all the
praise due to success.
Parties will be continually kept securing
the Indian country to force in the handfuls of
the enemy remaining out. Major Generals
Jessup and Sanford, as we'll as Brigadier
General Moore, have my instructions to that
effect. The former, after detention here of
ten or twelve days. proceeded last evening
to the head quarters of Major General Patter-
son, to the west. Yesterday party of Uni
ted States marines, a few mounted volunteers
and friendly Indians, secured the country be-
tween the Euchee and Hatchee Chubbee
thoroughly, and to the extent of about twelve
miles up those creeks.

many movements and arrangements on our
part. II was known that large forces were
gathering all around the country the river
was early pretty well guarded by the Geor-
g1ans, aided by two well-manned steamers
cruising up and down. One of these des-
troyed many canoes, RATS, &c. Maj. Gen.
SANFORD crossed the bridge at Columbus, and
TOOK up his camp four miles further, early in
June and although he had about 1000 un-
armed men, with but 400 armed, the enc
my. thought all Georgia was pouring into
their country. About the same time, Major
Gen. Jessup made his entry into the heart of
the nation, with large force of Alabamians
and friendly Indians. This latter movement
precipitated and favored a general surrender.
u shall necessarily be absent from this
place, after a few minutes, to complete ar.
engagements below, for two days. AS it is the
centre of correspondence and business, shall
return at the end of that time.
"Brigadier Gen. Moore of this State, whose
basis of operations has been Irwinton, is pla-
ced by my order below the south branch of Co
waggee, extending himself far to the right
and left. shall instruct him to send COM
pany of horse or two as far to the southwest
as Pea river. He appears, from his move
ments and correspondence, to be an officer of
much merit. His force, mostly mounted,
consists of about 1900 men,
"Ishall direct Major Gen. Sanford to keep
out small detachments on the branches of the
Cow-ag-gee, and on the Hatchee Chubbee, to
precipitate the surrender of the small parties
of the enemy yet out. General Jessup will
take measures of a similar character on the
upper parts of those streams which are nearer
to his depots at Tuskeegee, &c.
II have directed Major Gen. Jessup to post
two small battalions of artillery (here) impo-
sitions on the post road from Columbus to
Tuskeegee. This will be done in a few days,
and have caused the agent of the General
Post Office to be advised of the directions.
"On my return to this place, shall open
a correspondence with Brigadier General
Wool, and hope soon to be able to spare him

companies of Georgia and Alabama volun-
teers, should they be needed in the Cherokee
