those politicians who denounce every man who DIFF
fer from them IN opinion, as no better than he ought
to be.
just before Mr.. Clay left the United States Hotel,
a considerable number oftIe Supporters Of the Ad-
ministration waited upon him, and the gentemen
whom they had chosen as their organ, informed
him that although they differed with him on politi-
cal questions, they would not allow this difference
to restrain them from expressing their respect for
his character, aud the conviction thar he wus actu-
ated, in his public course, by honest and patriotic
motives; and that they wished TO takethis occasion
10 exchange salutatons with him.
Nh. Clay replied that he felt as much pleasure
in seeing them, as if they agreed with him in polit-
zeal opinion. He declared his sincere conviction
that the great mass Of those with whom no differed
on questions of public policy were honest and pat
riotic and, concluded with expressing his feryent
hopes thar, whatever diversity Of judgement might
prevail among them, they would all pursue stsadily
what they honestly regarded as the best interests Of
the country.

ST. AUGUSTINE, I2ih August, 1859.
The capture of 10 Indians at Fort Mellon two or
three days ago by 1t. Hanson has ELECTED the war
NEST commemorate from all quarters, and certain
ly entities this gallant young officer to the gratitude
Of the people and the appreciation of his govern.
ment. A subscription IS now on foot to purchase
and present to him a splendid sword as a lestimo-
nv, from the citizens OF 81. Augustine, of the esti-
nation in which they hold his conduct.
The party consisted of sixteen warriors and thir-
~ women and children. The little garrison at
Fort Mellon consisted of about % men, only one
half of whom were fiji for duty. The Indians were
encamped in the neighborhood and were in the ha-
bit of coning into garrison every day to draw the
rations so literally bestowed on them by the GO
vernment After the news arrived at Fort Mellon
of the treachelous murder Of Col. Harney's party
on tho Caloosahooche, the conduct of the Indians
became very suspicious, although it was not suppo-
sed that they could have heard OF It. They disaP
peared altogether for two days. 1t. II. was daily
expecting a Steamboat from Black Greek to remove
his men to a more healthy position. He resolved,
If the Indians should make their appearance again,
to seize them aud put them on board the boat when
it arrived. They did return, and, as events s1bse-
quently proved, with the purpose Of accommodating
and then introducing " Wild Cat" who was only
ten miles off with a strong force, to surprise and
murder the little garrison. 1t. H., as soon as they
were all within his pickets closed the gate and Gfed
a pistol which was the signal agreed upon for
selling them. Two of them plunged into the lake
to make their escape by swimming, but were imme-
dia,ely fred upon and shot dead. The rest then
surrendered. At this time the expected steamer
had not arrived, nor until two days after; during
which time an attack from Wild Cat was hourly
expected. But the boat came at last and the pre-
cious cargo was shipped FOR Charleston. IL wasno-
ticed that there were two strange Indians Of the
