INDIAN WAR.

Great alarm was lately produced in Colum-
bus, Georgia, from rumors that the Creek In
dams were about to attack that town; which
however, seems to have been groundlcss.
The whites had killed cn Indian, in de-
fence, it is alledged, of their stock. This
cnraged the Indians, and company of fit
ty or sixty of them coming across the
Chatahoochee, into the State of Gcorgla'
rumor maeniied the number to 500, and re.
presented them as coming to seek revenge.
A company Of 2l persons, only some o.
them armed, were despatched down to the
ferry, Is miles below Columbus, when it
was said, the Indians had crossed the river,
to inquire into the truth Of the report
This company fell in with the Indians and
a skirmish cnsued,in which two Of the whites
were killed, and one Indian was supposed to
be killed.
Late accounts represent the body of the
Creek nation as being friendly. But two
tribes, ofthcn, the Uchecz and the Hiches'
tees are said to be hostile.
Besides the above information communl-
Gated by our friend from Columbus, says
the Aug. Constitutionalist, tive have learned
from travellers who had just passed through
the Creek nation,t that the Indians were gencr.

hostile attitude assumed by the whites, and
that it was rumored those friendly Indians

Sunday School and Tract Depositories
A NUMBER of individuals in this towr

these Depositories which arc intended to be
perpetual.
These books and tracts arc sold at cost
and charges, ,citho,a any profit, to all who
will buy, and the money reiuvested in books
of the same kind, and thus the supply is 4.
ways kept up. The books are sold at the
same prices that they are sold at the Deposi.
tories by retail in New York and Philadel-
phia.
These books and tracts incucate that
form Of truth and doctrine in which chris
tians arc agreed generally; and have moth
ing sectarian in them and thus are calcula-
t,l to supply the wants of christians ofevery
evangelical denomination.
The Depositories are at the Book Store
and are kept and attended to free of charge
or expense.

Charleston and Cincinnati Rail Road.

Tho Kcn.uckians seem little jealous of Gin.
cinnati and unwilling to let this road terminate
in that city. They wish to contne tho wealth
which must accumulate at the point Of its tcrmi-
nation to their own State. A bill to charter a
company for constructing the road was before
the Legislature of that State at the date Of our
last accounts 4 letter from the seat Of govern
ment to the Louisville Journal, dated January ls,
says:
An amendment, adopted to-day, provides,
that no branch shall be constructed within
the limits of the State, except with the con.
sent of our Legislature. Another amend
mcnt, passed to-day, prohibits the company
from constructing bridge over the Ohio
river. OF course the road, even if it goes
in the direction of Cincinnati, cannot reach
that city. but must stop at Covington or
Newport. A third amendment, passed by
the House, prescribes, that branch Of the
read shall be extended to Louisville, from
some point south Of the Kentucky river.
Mr.. R. Wickliffe, ir. member Of the
House of Representatives from Lexington,
moved, to-day, to strike out Ciccinnati from
the rail road charter and to authorize the
extension Of the work to Louisville. The
discussion of this question on account OF
the magnitude Of the interests involved, has
been deferred till tomorrow.
A letter to the Cincinnati Wing, dated January
90, says that Louisville, with the assent of Col.
Blanding, has been made poinst Of termination
for branch of the road, commencing North West
of the Cumberland mountain, but still she is dis
satisfied.
The same letter adds:
Whether the Bill will finally pass, may be
considered somewhat doubtful, although |
think there is now very fair prospect OF
such an issue. We thc friends Of the
measure) are gathering strength every day,
and if another week be suffered to elapse
before the final disposition is made, there
will be no doubt of the passage Of the
charter, by handsome majority. If car
ricd in the House, the Senate will assuredly
approve it by 4 large majority.

Il at all times supply orders for Devon Cattle
this breed is SO distinguished for thcir easy keep

that they would be admirably suited to the pur-

The happy adaptation of the Deronshire Ozen,

Late Pu5lcason.-Thc Man Of Faith
or the Harmony Of Christian Faith ane
Christian Character, by John Abercrnmbic
NJ. D., author Of Gan Enquiry concerning
the intellectual Powers" and "The Philos-
ophy Of the Moral Feelings" Van Nos
tfand and Dwight, N. Y. 1885. PIP. III.
We are indebted to the publishers for a
coy Of this work, which we were prevent
cd from noticing sooner, first by want OF
time to read it, and afterwards by indisposi-
ton. The Biblical Rcpertory, in highly
commenda,ory review Of it, says: "This is
q delightful little volume. 1t is short and
sweet" And VIC think most, if not all rca-
ders will concur in the remark. we are
persuaded that no Christian, and no one else
who wishes to regulate his affections and
form his character upon Christian principles,
can read it without being profted, or with.
out being the better qualified to discharge
the social duties of society. 1t is an essay
upon 2 Pet. i. So; "And besides, giving
all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and
to virtue knowledge, &C." and was written
by the author, who is practising physician,
for circulation among the families whom he
used to visit in the discharge Of his profes.
sional duties. The readers of his former
publications must have formed from them a
very favorable estimate Of his private char.
acter; but the estimate must be heightened
by reading the present volume. We cor
daily recommend it. The ncatness of the
mechanical execution does the respectable
publishers credit. If, instead Of prcfixing
the present introduction, they had procured
DR.. Spring, whose church is near their store,
or seme one else Of his spirit and talents, to
write one on the dependence of the sinner
upon his Maker for all gracious affections,
it would have enhanced the value Of the
work for circulation in this country.
