 messenger received from him what was af- | forwards discovered to be schite PxciPiLGte of
 mercury, a most deadly poison. The case Is rendered still more aggravated, from the fact 1 that the patient refused to take the medicine, until it had been sent back to the apothecary with a request that he would examine the
 written prescription and the dose, which he did, and pronounced it correct. The medi- cine wds taken, We regret to say, with the most fatal conseque nccs. The patient died on Sunday, notwithstanding every effort to countervail the effects of the poisoa."
 IHe Seminoles-lt is too late in the day to contCmn an enemy who seconded by the pe- cuiiar physical characteristics of the country, has baii;C the military operations of success sive generals, and virtually defeated our troops in every skHnlish. The fact is, we are inclined to believe that the Scminoles are impregnable in their fustncSS, and are not to be subdued by military force. Soft words, and the persuasive force of gold, may induce them to migrate. Otherwise, we believe that they will maintain their footing. in spite of all the efforts we can make to dislodge them. The country to which they might be confin- cd is uninhabitable by the white man, and the question seriously presents itself wheth- CT the design of forcibly expeiling them had not better be reinquishcd. It is idle to sup pose that national honor requires their sub- jection. Nocredit will accrue from the most successful termination of the war. Peace
 would present an opportunity for negotiating, and the cost ofone months campaign would suffice to persuade every man, woman and AL force elsewhere, and are most anxious to see

From the Baltimore Sun, Jan, g,

FURTHER FROM THE MICHIGAN FRONTIER Through the politeness of Mir. Clark, of Bos- ton, who arrived in this city last evening. from Monroe, Michigan, which place he lett on the llth, We have been put in possession ot the following important additional intelli- gcnce from that quarter.
 A large number of troops from Cleveland and Detroit, under the command of Col. Dodge, left Monroe on the 7th in a schooner, and were joined at Gibraltar on the Sih by Col. Sutherland, together with several Loats, scows, &c. having 25O stand of arms, three field pieces, a large stock of provisions, &c. most of which was put on board of the schooner for Bois Blanc, a British island, op- posite Maiden, where they proposed making an attack on the British forces stationed there, and thence proceed to Maiden, Sand- wich aud London. While on their way to the Island, the schooner containing 30 men, separated from the rest of the fleet, and run along within gunshot of the Loyalists, whence they were hailed by the sentinel, but returning no answer, were threatened with an attack. They were told to fire and bcd-d. which threat was Immediately put in execution, and promptly returned by the Pat riots-the latter killing, as war reported, ,-a- bout sixty of the Loyalits, without receiving any injury themselves. On the evening of the 9th, the schooner made another attempt to feconnoilre, when squall coming up, she grounded, and the Loyalists commenced an other cannonading, which was returned by the Patriots, and resulted in the loss of IA of the latter killed. when the schooner surren- dered. Co.'s. Dodge and Sutherland both wounded.
 Our informant further states that Gov. Ma son, of Michigan, made demand on the re- mainder of the patriot forces, for the arms taken from that state, which demand was compiled with, and the patriot force disband- ed. Great excitement is said to prevail along the whole frontier, and disposition is manifested by the people to engage in m ex- petition against the Canadian government, notwithstanding the reverses the patriots have thus fur met with.
