fellow citizens in Florida, and of devsing some method
OF affordug timely relief having assurances thar bodv
OF volunteers tsaytwo hundred and fifty could be mme
dlaey obtained in this city for that service have deem
ed 1t their duty TO ascertain from this department. first
whether their services would be accepted by the gene
raj government, if so, for what term they would proba
bly, be required, and also whether the general govern
ment would provide them with arms and the reousite
munitions of war and would also transport them 10 ST
Augustine or other place in Florida where their ser
vices may be required
The inquiry is thus submitted from the circumstance
that an appropriation is made by the government
announced by the papers, for the suppression of Indian

the patriotic feelings which have dictated the measures
you propose, under existing circumstances however it
Will not be necessary Tor the government to avail itself
of the offer you have made. Major General Scott has
proceeded TO the theatre of operations with full power
TO bring into the field such force regular and militia
as trust will enable him promptly subdue those
misguided lpdians His regular troops when concen-
raied win probably exceed twelve hundred men and
he is authorizekte call upon the Executives of South
Carolina Georgia, Alabama and Florida, for such mill
tia force as he may find necessary. II is some days
since he left here and his preliminary arrangements
have doubt been made making for conducting
the campaign with such and MATERIAL as the state
of affairs in Florida may seem TO him to require
To dispatch forces therefore the present time from
this quarter, would be unnecessary interference with
the discretion entrustedto him. and would not facilitate
the operations against the Indians, it appears by
formation from the Southern States that arrangements
