IMPORTANT FROM TExAs-MDIAN WARrARE.-
The anticipated battle between the Texans and South
ern Cherokees and Caddos has taken place and the In
dians completely discemffted. The Cherokees, Sc.
under Bswles, numbered about six hundred and the
Texans about the same. They met near the Neches
and fought two battles-one onthe 10Th ult and tho
other the next day. In the la.t engagement Bowles
the Cherokee chief, was killed Of the Texans in
the two fights there four killed and thirtysne
wounded. Eighteen Indians were killed and great
many wounded. Major Augustine and General
Rusk's brother ware wounded in the last action. II
is supposed that the troubles with the Indians
will cease for they have lost their chief-ther prop
and their suPport-in the death of Bowes.
The United States Government lad better engage
500 Texans to settle the Florida war-they could
do it in a month by exterminating every red skin.
