twill be seen below by an extract from Mobile
paper that the reports about the resumption OF the
war on the part of the Indians are without truth
They that know the Indian character not surprl-
sed at the reluctance with which they leave the land
of their birth. The love of home exists stronger in
the savage breast than in that of the civilized erea
ture. Ii is one of the effects of civilization Tepress
and narrow down the finer feelings, as web those
of the fercer kind. In a few years more and not an
Indian will roam in his native woods west of the Mis-
sissippl.
The prospects for fine crops are highly gratifying
when we consider that the necessity of importing
bread stuffs the past year, had heavy influence in
bringing about, or rather aggravatng, our present
monetary difficulties. If fathers will only set their
to ploughing and leave of the present silly sys
tenn of education, the country would prosper much
more rapidly, and produce greater and better men.
Another steamboat explosion is recorded below
So 60. Life is at premium on the southern wa
tiers. Unless Congress, in its mighty wisdom, do
something, it will take twenty years for the moral
tone of the community in that quarter to the

Five Mississippi Pilots it will be seen, have been
arrested for burning ship. They lawless set
their pursuits and their dwelling places are enough
make them worse.
We were yesterday informed that five of the pilots
at the Baze have been arrested by the U. s. Mar
shall on charge of having been concerned in setting
fire to the brig Argus. They have been examined and
held to bail at $4,000 each.
This is the vessel, an account of the loss of which
the Grand Gozier appeared in our paper Of l3h Of
April last where mention is made of her being
set fire to. She was bound from New York to this
port with an assorted cargo. We have not learned
the circumstances which have ranspred to authorz.

Monday last the steamboat Crusader, which plies
between Pascagoula and New Orleans, was passing
Rabbit Island, she collapsed her lue, whereby eleven
persons were scalded badly. One was killed, three

NORFOLK, JUNE 25.-By the arrival on Saturday
night last about midnight, of the steam packet Geor
gia, Capt. Rollins, from Charleston which place she
left on Friday, we have papers of that day.
We learn, orally, from those whose position has
given them full opportunities of observing the charac
ter Of the Seminoles that the recent rumors of a
newal of hostlltes unfounded, and that the In
dams have Withdrawn from Tampa for fear of the
measles, which had begun to rage there, and which
they were apprehensive would prove fatal as the
small pOx.
The Indians regularly receive their raons at Fort
Mollon, and are friendly disposed. They all seem
inclined to postpone emigration till fall.
The officers who arrived in the Georgia, travelled
from Tampa Bay through the country, and were in
nowise molested by the Indians.
II is generally believed that many of the rumors
set aoa the results of pevcrsness passion and
that many Of the accounts purporng to be full and
authentic, either entirely false, or rest slight
premises
Among the passengers who arrived in the steam
packet Georgia Captain Rollins, from Charleston,
were Majors Whiting and McClntock u. s. Artille-
ry; Major FauntlerOy; and Captains Bean and An
derson of the Dragons and Lieut. Percy, u. s. Ma
vy.-Beacon.
The CRoFs.-The Columbia (Pa.) Spy of Saturday
MENTIONS an evidence of the fourishing state Of
the grain in that neghborhood, that stalk Of wheat
was brought int that Office the day before, which
measured five feet ten and half inches in length.
The stalk was taken from thirty acre field of C.
Haldeman, Esq, of which il was but a fair sample
The Spy adds that the grain generally in that vcini
ty is in ia way.
The accounts from all quarters, in reference to the
growing crops, continue TO be favorable; and the
harvest is now at hand, we may the more confident
ly expect a rich product. There may be, as there
doubtless are partial failures, but taking the whole
country together do not doubt, and indeed great
ly rejoice in the belief that there will be considerably
more than full average crop, the present season.
