MoRE INDIAN MURDERs.-The New York pa
pers contain a letter from Tallahasse. under date
Of the 18th ult., detailing a horrid scene Of Indian
murders. IL says" on the night Of the Oath inst,
the Indians made an attack on he dwelling of Mr..
Green Chaires, a most respectable planter, about
10 miles from hance. They approached the house
unobserved-ptyed open one of the weatherboards,
and after introducing fac and combustibles, drew
themselves up in front of the parlor windows, and
discharged their arms into the rooms in which were
Mrs. Chaires and her two youngest children. Mr..
Chaires and his daughter Elizabeth and one son had
retired for the night The report Of fire arms Tou-
sed Mr.. c., from his slumber. and on opening the
parlor doors he beheld the hlelsss forms Of his wife
and two children; he then made his escape from a
back window and succeeded in eluding the vigil
ance of the Indians. His daughter and son were
equally fortunate. The house was burned to the
ground, and with il the remains Of the slain. So
soon az the news reached Tallahassee, the corps of
men called the mounted minute men proceeded in
search OF the murderers. They soon reached the
scene and there beheld poor old Chaires seated on
a stump, weeping over the still smoking remains Of
his wifo and children, and the ruins OF hs late hap
py dwelling. On the retreat Of the Indians from
Chaires', they attacked two other plantations, but
were repulsed. They did aot succeed in overta-
king them, though they followed the trail for a con-
siderable distance. So much for Gen. Macomb's
boosted peace, and the piti(ul policy pursued by
the government towards poor, suffering and bleed
ing Florida! Comment Is Unnecessary

FOh THE
South Western Journal,
MAGAZINE OF
SCIENCE, LITERATURE AND MIS-
CELLANY.
PUBLISHED sEMI-MoNTHLY
By The Jefferson College and Washington
Lycenm.

The extensive and growing interest of
the Southwest, its moral and social i'm
provement, and its increasing literary and
scientific demands, have awakened otten-
ton to the fact that in this highly impor-
tant portion ofour country there is no lour-
nal or paper so exclusively devoted to lit
erature and science, advocating the doc
trine of no party.
Feeling the necessity of such a paper,
the Jefferson College and Washington IY-
ceum have commenced the publication Of
a periodical eniitled"TIi SOUTH-WES-
TERN JOURNAL to be devoted to lit
erature and science, and all ublects inter
esting to the general reader.
1t is published semi-monthly, in the city
of Natchcz, and contains sixteen small
quarto pages, similar in form to the "Pen
ny Magazine" and is protected by a good
envelope, SO that it may be conveyed TO
any distance without injury.
1t will be remembered that we have no
work in the Southwest similar to this;
and every one who feels pride in any en-
terprise calculated to enhance the social
and moral character ofour country, should
come forward and assist in this worthy
enterprise.
Pecuniary emoluments constitutes no
part of the object of this publication. 1t
is not intended to benefit any individual
or the Lyceum in a pecunary point OF
view. The sole object is to advance
knowledge and diffuse taste for the
refined enjoyments of Literature and
Science.
Nothing is now wanting to the accom-.
plshment of the wishes of the Lyceum but
the patronage of the community, and it is
expected that thispatronage viii be prompt
ly and cheerfully extended.
All communications in reference to tho
periodical should be addressed, post paid,
to Professor J. A. VAN HonsEN, the See. of
the Lyceum, Natchez, Mi. The subscrip-
tion price IS, in all cases in advance.
The first number of this paper is dated
Dec. Is, 1897, and it will be continued Sc
mi-monthly from that date.
