edged successor of Arpluc.ll, or sam
Jones; (the latter, it is understood, has
never he'd or exercised any military COM
mand. but stands in the light of coun-
sellor amongh tribe) One of the stipu-
Iations of this agreement was the estab-
lishmcnt of trading post near the mouth
of the Svnabcl river. The mission of
Col. Harney, to carry into effect this stl-
pulation, the surprise of his party, the
massacre Of a portion and the escape OF
the rest, are familiar to all. Sam Jones
and his tribe were at the time in the VI
cinity of Fort Lauderdale, distant about
100 miles, and have not only denied all
participation in or knowledge Of the mas
sacre, but up to the latest advices continue
to manifest neutral disposition and an
intention to abide by the agreement made
with Gen. Macomb.
The approaching campaign then will
partake more of defensive than offensive
character, as it will be confined to driving
the Indians from the settled portions OF
Florida, where they have committed de-
predations almost without check. 1t hav-
inc been found impossible to force the In
dians from their Businesses, any further
attempt to effect that object would only
be attended with a needless sacrifice OF
life and money

| A week OF two ago We sisted that the Rev. Leon

non-accepsance. What the result eventually win

various kinds and breeds. lhave now fine pair of
twin calves, of perfect similarity am at loss al
most always to tell them apart, which is which |;
and in fact it makes difference whether or not
can designate them. Isha produce them at the Fair
next October, and am very sanguine that none ofmy
brother farmers can rival me single point, for
beauty, symmetry, &c. These calves are very good
scholars for their age they have commenced an ed
ucation, and already are capable of reading and pro-
nouncing very distinctly in their abs for instance,
bah and pronounce them as distinctly rs bassoon
player sounds church music. My crops are very
good this season. and shall produce specimens ofny

palned of upon the people for the benefit of himself
It is tree corn, It's true but not tree that bears
corn; therefore, "the tree that bringeth not forth
good fruit shall be hewn down and cast into the fire..
Mr.. Thorburn, cumberer ofthe ground, should
be dealt with accordingly.
My potatoes Of the Rohaa kind. are all talk and no
cider that is, all top and no bottom. There is about
as much real nourishment in them as J. NJ Niles ex-
pressed last spring for mechanics-he says of that
class Of men. they are led to the polls like cattle to
the market, and he undoubtedly thinks his saying
true, 70. these potatoes first introduced through
his instrumentalty and they suffice for food for
"the cattle" Of State. True to letter, they are
just good enough to feed CATTLE and that is all they
are good for shall produce root and branch at the
