FLORIDA AFFAIRS.

The National Intelligencer says, that the information received from Florida is any l thing but satisfactory and thinks that the delay of the Indians in coming i'll is very suspicious. Not to speak of the anxiety which it must cause to the commanding Gen. eral, the detachments of the army and navy on duty in that country are in very trying situation; the latter especially, who are pla- ced on shore for garrison duty, for which they are not by nature at all adapted, to the utter exclusion of their performance of the service for which our vessels are so much wanted as cruizers. The sloop of war Van- dalia has been lying in Tampa Bay, her crew constantly either rowing about in open boats, or threading the sWamps, or standing as sen- tinels in camp or garrison, for how long we do not remember, but it must have been near ly twelve months. Meanwhile, the Indians hang back, and transports are waiting for them at an enormous expense to the Govern ment for demurrage, &c. The accounts from Tampa Bay are to the 18th, and the Indians were still holding back, though two months and a half had elapsed since the conclusion of the treaty for their immediate removal.
