very correctly illustrated by friend Of ours
in conversation the other duy;-"You have said
he, "a very fine pasture adjoining my possession;
and, knowing you to be pretty clever fellow,
and not apt TO create broil about small affairs,
occasionally turn my horse into it. Time
wears on, and finding that you possess an unu
sual degree of forbearance, take the liberty to
keep my horse in your pasture all the time, and
perhaps turn in my oxen to keep him company.
You began to renousrate, and begin to talk
to you about our pasture. few years pass, &

oxen, cows, sheep and all. Again you remon-
slrate, and in terms rather more emphatic; and
noO begin to talk to you of MY pusture but

THE FLORIDA WAR.

Congress at its late session appropriated eight
cen hundred thousand dollars for the further pros
ecution of the Florida war. This digraceful
contest seems TO be carried on,-so far as the In
dams are concerned, with greater zeal and sue
cess than ever. Having totally ruined the whole
Of East Florida, with the exception fist Angus
tine and two or three other villages held by the
United States troops, they have now transferred
the seat of war to Middle Florida, and we bear
of repeated acts of devastation and blood perpe-
trated IN the Immediate vicinity OF Tallahassee
the capital of the Territory. The attempts made
to overtake and destroy the parties employed
upon these maraudna expeditions, seem TO be
attended with very httle success, and according
to present appearances, Middle Florida is,
likely to be totally ruined as East Florida has
been.
Under the orders issued by the War Depart

those ofentire submission, and emigration, were
