The Augusta Courier says--"We
have nothing Of much interest from the
scene Of Creek warfare. The Coium.
bus papers are full OF the petty hostii
tiles carried on by both parties. Tue
only feature in the accounts worth mo-
,ticing, is the increased disposition
manifested by the Indians TO "cona

HosTIbE CREEKs.-The force of the
hostile foe in Alabama has been 80 vari-
ously estimated, that we have taken
soms pains to ascertain their true num-
bers.
There are in the Creek nation 5000
Glow estimate; warriors, including boys
capable of dong much mischief.
There are 100 friendly Indians in the
camps Of O-poth.le Yo-ho-lo and E-cha
Had-jo, 400 in Chambers county, 80 at
this place, and 90 at Fort Mitchell; ma
king in all l,i00 friendly warriors.
This Indians have all been repeatedly
invited TO come in; their hostility has
been put upon this issue, and every in.
ducement offered to bring them under
ourprotection. II
Ne.ah Mic-co has 700 warriors at
Wa-loo-ta- ha.ka, and is by soma,
though, to be friendlyi but such is not
The case. Gen. Woodw ward expressed
to Us no doubts of his hostility
we perused q letter a few days sincs
written at Ne-ah Mic-co's camp, whiell
detailed nothing but long series Of
the most wanton and blood-thirsty as-
tons.
There can be no doubt bat that the
murderous attack on the stages was
made by band from his camp, acme
of tho stage horses having been found
in their possession. ss
After the most thorough inquiry upon
the subject, we cannot believe that the
hostile party number less than 5000.
To prevent these ssvages ffom. as
Gaping into Florida, and to chastise
them in their own country, willrequire
large force the former object is OF
great moment. Shoald many reach
Florida, it is impossible to foresss the
termin alton Of the wars one warrior

ABoLlrroE ExeIrEMRNr.--The St.
Louis (Mo.) Republican contains letter
from a gentleman of that place, dated
Marion city, Oath May, giving an ac-
count of the murder of Dr.. Bosley by
MIR. WIN. Muldrow. 1t appears that a
young man from the East mad expressed
himself publicly in favour of abolition.
and had been engaged IN circulating abb
clifton papers. A mob Of from 90 to 100
persons took him with the intention OF
putting coat of tar and feathers over
him; but upon consultation, concluded
in consequence of bis youth, to let him
escape. Ga the Sunday following, at a
place called the Camp Ground, immedi-
ately after the sermon, ,Muldrow rose
with paper IN one hand and an open
knife in the other. He commenced reads
ing the paper. containing a request that
all persons in favor of the abolition Of
slavery should subscribe such amount az
they tho't proper for the accomplishment
Of that object, SO soon as the government
would take the matter in hand, when
DR.. Bossley rose and said, that no one
but scoundrel would at that time ACT
at he was doing. Muldrow answering
that he was not to be deferred, tho
Doctor struck at him with his sword
cane, when it was taken from him BY
some one present. He then drew a
pistol, and MuIdrow plunged his kuifs
Ialo his side, wounding him so seysrely
that little hopes were had Tor bis. re-
covery. Muldrow mounted his horse
and returned home. Soon after bis IS :
cape was known, the Sheriff with a
posse Of abou. 60 men went in pursuit
OF him. About IL O'clock, that night
