EMIGRATION.
Since nowadays there's every man
Attempting emigtation,
Why should not propose plan
To benefit the nation,
Long haze thought Il in my mind,
To fud fitting home,
Might seem by Nature's self designed,
For kindred souls to roam.
The brewers should to Malta go,
Tho loggorheads To Scilly,
The Quakcrs to the Friendly Isles,
The furriers all to Chill;
The little, bawling, squalling elves,
Who break ON nightly rest,
Awhile their nurses haste to Babylon,
Go TO Lspiand or to Brest.
From Spithead, cooks run over Greece,
Aud while tho mscr waits,
His passage to the Guinea Coast,
The spendthrift's in the Straits.
To Geneva quick while drunkatds HE,
1.-THE Needles spinstors DO;
While gourmands lunch at Sandwich Isles,
Twill suit them TO It.
Musicians hasten to the Sousd,
The surplice'd priests to Rome;
While still the race of hypoctnes
At Canton are nj home.
Send bachelors to the United States.
Maids TO the Isle of Man;
Let gardeners all to Botany 20,
And shoe-blucks to Japan.
While debtors flock to Ohio,
And hostlers to tho Mouse,
The firemen to the Indians 20,
And TO Greenland oil the blues;
While lovers with Good Hope rest pleas'd,
To some Cape Horn is pain;
And Cockneys pause Lyons too see,
Bold sailors cross the Main.
Stationers post enquire for Rheims;
Blacklcgs for Wight dosign;
While rogues will find longitude
That's Just below the line.
Run surgeons TO Connecticut,
Finland's the sharks abode,
While halle our idle vagabonds
Might mend their ways in Rhodes.

became deeply implicated, and it was said
repeatedly that, if 'Rathbun failed, all
Buffalo must fall
Mr. Rathbun's business was enormously
extended. In addition 10 large operations
in real estate, in which he was constantly
engaged, he was a contractor for erecting
the great hotel, and many other build
inss. In this line he had shops and es-
adjustments of his own for making bricks
and furnishing and working all sorts of
materials for building. lie had no less
than four stores kept in his own name.
three of which were one hundred and fifty
feet deep, filed with valuable merchan-
disc. He owned the line Of stages from
Buffalo 10 Batavia, and IN fact, almost all
the lines running out Of that city. and for
this aud other purposes owned six hun
| bred horses. he employed twenty eight
| clerks, a3d two thousand other persons
IN The various departments OF his opera
tons. His skill and enterprise, sustained
by a large number of well known fortu.
nate specnlatlons, gave bin a reputation
Tor talents and wealth, by which until now
he has been able to carry on these dIversi-
fed and almost limitless operations. But
he has failed at last. FROM statements
which are as good as can be had in such
a case, we are led TO hope that the conse
quences will not be RUN on SO broad a
scale as had been anticipated, if indeed
there is any ruin at all At any rate, il
does not appear that the citizens Of Buffa

THE INDIANS.

The Milledsevile Recorder of Cd inst
says: We learn by respectable gen
tleman who arrived this morning. from Co
lnmbus, that on Wednesday. (the 27th,)
Capt. Jernigan again engaged the Indians
about 20 miles below Lumpkln. He had
been reinforced. and followed the Indian
10 swamp Ii is reported they boldly
came out of the swamp, cursed Jernigan
and his troops, bantered them to show
themselves men, and come into the swamp
and take what they called a fair fight. No
sooner said than done Into the swamp
went Jeruigan and his men, and at it they
went. How long the fight lasted we are
not told but il may be judged of in some
degree by the result. Upon the Indians
giving ground, forty of their number were
found by JefDigan to have fallen. 1t is
reported that there were probably as many
more taken prisoners, The Indians were
at our last accounts, still in the swamp
and General Sandlord's forces had arrived
soon after the battle Captain Jernigan'.
loss is stated TO be five or six killed and
eleven wounded"
The MIlledgeville Journal of the and
inst. reports third engagement with the
Indians, by Capt. Jerpigan, on Thursday
the 2Sth as follows:
lie passengers who arrived here on
yesterday morning IN the Stage from Co
lumbus, stated that Information had been
received of Capt. Jernigan having had an
engagement with the Indians on Wednes-
day the 9th, and again on Thursday the
2Sth. The loss of the Indians was stated
In hppn Cd 4
some 10 or 90 on Thursday. The loss on
the part Oft whites notreported When
our paper went TO press, we had heard
nothing affirming or contradictng the re
port
The Mllledgevile papers mention late
order OF General Jesup, which must soon
bring matters to an issue with the Indians
one way or another. The order directs
all the Indians 10 be at the emgratins
camp by the LIST Of August, and declares
that all who are not there by that day,
VIII be no longer fed by the United States,
but be treated as hostlles. The Milledge
vllie editors very naturally suppose, that
The result OF this order will be either to
terminate the war at once, or TO precip
tate the whole tribe, friendly or not, (for
all are alike opposed 10 emigratiol,) into in
discriminate hostility. Events will soon
determine the matter.
TALLAHASSEE, July est is ascertain
ed thro' the squaws captured in Lowndes
county, that the Indians lost about sixty
warriors in their former engagement with
the volunteers under Col BealI, at the
Chnklsawhatchie swamp. Ii is not pro.
