CAREY's FERRY, May Ia, 1889.
Dear Sir-Every thing is gong on well
and smoothly in the negotiation line; and
in very short time, 1 expect to be able tc
apprse you of the successful termination
of Gen Macombs mission. Col. Harvey
arrived from the south few days ago,
bringing with a very important chief OF
the Mickasukie tribe: he with fourteen 9th
ers, come into Col. H., while on the south
ern coast, and says the Indians are anxious
for peace, and will gladly accede to the
Generals terms.
Gen. Jones (Sam.) says if he comes in,
1t will be after peace is made ard every thing
settled. Coacoochee cntertains and exrres-
ses the same opinion. Several Indians have
also visited the General at Fort King, and
promised to bring in more. Murders com
mitted by struggling parties of Indians may
still be heard of but as soon as the news
of our wish to make peace is known at all,
no danger even of this kind is to be appre-
hended.

From FLoRIDA.-Our latest accounts
from Florida, we are sorry to say, are any
thing but consplng to the patriot or the
philanthropist. In the Pensacola Gazette
ofthe 18th inst, we find the following par
ngraph:
The SEMINOLE WAR.--No hopes seem
to be any longer entertained that the en-
blssy of General Macomb to the Seminoles
will end in any thing bcnelicial.--Lieuten,
ant Reynolds, who passed through this
place last week on his way from Tampa
Bay, brings intelligence that the chief on
whose good officers General Macomb chiefly
relied, has not only refused to treat, but has
betaken himself and all his people to the
woods. The truth is, they consider the
whites to have been badly whipped, and it is
nearly the time that we should take the
same view fthe matter. The language
they now uscis, Let us alono and we will
not modest you--remain at your posts or
your homes. and we will not attack you--
but fyou make war on us, we will fight as
long as our ammunition lasts, and when this
is gone we will take TO the bow and ar
row.
Maumee City express. [volume] (Maumee City, Ohio) 1838-184?, 1839-06-08

LOWER CANADA.-The Montreal Herald
of the 18th inst, intimates that another re-
bellion is on point of breaking out in the
country of L'Acadie. The Herald says:
On Thursday morning several loyal fam-
hes from La Tortu and the surrounding
country arrived in town, in consequence of
the threats to which they have lately been
subjected by the rebels, and the fears en-
tertained that their lives were in danger--
Among the number is Mr.. Witty, who was
severely wounded when Mr.. Walker was
killed at the breaking out of the rebellion
last year. The third act in the tragedy Of
Lower Canadian rebellion has now COM
mcnced, and we doubt not it will terminate
as the previous ones have. in the discomf-
ture of the rebels. butata much greater sac
rilice of life and property.
Maumee City express. [volume] (Maumee City, Ohio) 1838-184?, 1839-06-08

he quarreled and had an aflray with gam
bier named Allen. Afterward the gambler
stole upon him and shot him in his bed, and
then plunged Bowie knife through him SO
as to PIN him to his mattress.
Thus two promising young men prema-
turely and mserably ended their lives,
while Stanley, the cause, as these clrcum-
stances strongly go to prove, of their ruin,
pursued his way, to all appearances, as
calmly as if nothing had happened.
Stanley is at present in custody, having
been arrested on the charge of stealing $500
of Mr.. Grimes at Houston. He was taken
at the mouth of the Sabine, by Sheriff Will
son of this county. No prosecution can
take place for the thofs suspected, to have
taken place upon Goodrich, as the time has
past since upon the commission of the of
fence in which the love requires that an III
dictment should be found. We understand
that he restored Grimes his money, and we
fear that he will be prosecuted with less
vigor than his conduct demands, as Grimes
has been upon friendly terms with him, and
believed in his innocence when he was sus-
pected by others.
Stanley is the son of the ex-governor OF
Carolina of that name, and has had broth.
er in the American Congress for several
years. The family is of the best standing
but we learn that he has been renegade
iorsevcral years. We forbear any further
remarks until the present prosecution shall
have terminated.

STEAMBOAT ARRANGBMENT.--We under
stand that an arrangement, which has been in
contemplation among owners of steamboats,
upon the Lakes, has been at length entered
into, to do away with the cutting under Of
fare and rates offreight. The plan, as we
understood, is something like this.-The
boats are each assessed at n certain number
of shares, varying according to their esti-
mated value for the season. An uniform
rule of prices has been adopted to which
each is bound to adhere, and to render its
accounts monthly to committee which has
been chosen. The profits of all are to be
divided to the shares, each boat, receiving,
of course, according to the number at which
it is rated. The number of shares, accord
ing to the original pan,was about 1900 The
management Of the boats remains with the
agent or owners as before.
Two boats only, the Illinois and North
America, do not come into the system.
There has been, no doubt, a kind of com
petition among the boats, which was more
injurious to the owners, that beneficial to the
travelling public. Whether this is the
best remedy, time will show.

A TRAGEDtAN TURNED PREACHER.--The
Louisville Theatre was lately crowded to
excess to witness Cearles B. Parsons cele.
brated performance of Othelo when the
manager came forward and announced that
there could be no performance that evening
in consequence of the surprlnsig convention
Of Mr.. Parsons under Mr.. Maffits preaching.
Thcaudience was very indignant and quite
a number OF young people ran into Mr..
Maffit's meeting house and commenced
crying "Othello!" "Othcllo!' so loud that
that Mr.. Mal1it stopped his sermon.
Immediately Mr.. Parsons walked in
to the broad aisle and pronounced in the
most emphatic manner "Othelo's occupa-
tion's gone!" and then proceeded to say that
ga change had come over the spirit of his
dream;" he had "fretted his brief hour upon
the stage of Thespis and henceiorth should
"perform" in the House of Prayer and
Temple of Zion; he had left the "sock and
buskin'' for the sword and helmet of right
eousness, and that, instead of fighting
Shakspeare's mimic battles he should here
after fight under the Cross of Jesus Christ
and, finally, he exhorted his old comrades
to remain with him and leave the Theatre
to become the abode of bats. The papers
say it was Charey's best performance and
that his thrilling eloquence will win him
twenty fold Iaurels in holy orders when
compared with the stage Chicago Am.

MAUMEE CITY EXPRESS.
SATURDAY, JUNE 8, 1889.

The EsTIMATB.-Itiswell known to the in
itiated, that there are certain very uncertain
and very indefinite periods in the progress
of the public works Of this state, when, an
estimate is taken Of the quantity Of work
done under each contact for the Carrying on
ofsuch work, and sum of money paid in
proportion to the amount of the estimate, to
each Of the contractors.
II is curious to observe the avidity and
greediness after money that pervades the
whole community on the arrival of estimate
day. The contractors gather around the
paymaster, like sharks following the carcase
Of dead whale; each contractor has his
group of satellites, that shine in his path,
like the pilot fish after the shark, while each
individual secondary planet too, has his fol-
overs who stick TO him, like barnacles
to the back of the pilot fish. Those who
have seen an eagle pursued by hawks, the
hawks by turkey buzzards, and the turkey
buzzards by the king birds, can form an
idea oftae picking, in all its ramifcations,
that goes on at all estimate.
This estimate business is far from being
an idle ceremony either. The body polite
feels its effects, to the ends of its fingers.
Business leaves its usual no-go motive rate,
and goes ahead like polished devil from
the foundry of Norris s. Co. Some pay
their debts and feel honest, and some buy
again and let their creditors go-wherc they
please.
Some idea may be formed of the effect
of this process, by the common answer
that is given to all sorts of questions.
Isay, Mr.. A. when are you going to New
York2
After estimate, sir!
See here B. when are you going to run
awayl
I'd be fool to 60 before the estimate?
Mr.. G. When are you going to be mar
riedl
After the estimate, sir!
And it has even been asserted that one
poor sinner who was urged by his clerical
adviser to lay up treasures in heaven as soon
as possible, gave grunt, rolled over with
his face to the wall, and told him plainly,
that he couldn't make the deposite until af-
ter the estimate.
