intelligence that the English merchant cap.

1t appears that the High Commissioner,
LIN, either out Of policy, or from pure gen.

all the curiositics Of the city Of Canton, and
then escorted him down the river 10 Macao,

dercd him TO the British.
As it was on Dir. GbbIe's account that
Capt. Elliot declared Canton IN a state Of
blockade, OF course the blockade was with.
drawn the instant he was surrendered.
Lin was still very strict in not allowing
British goods TO pass the Bogue in Amer.
lean bottoms. The trade with the Amer.
leans vas still unrestricted, aud enormous
prices were paid both for goods aud i'rcighis

Alphabetical, May More Murders
By the IndiGas.--By the steamer Hyperion,
Capt. Churchill, which arrived here last
evening, we have received the melancholy
intelligence of the murder of three more
families by the Indians, since that Of Mr..
McLane, noticed in yesterdays paper
The name, however, of but one has been
ascortained, that OF Mr.. Lamb, about eight
miles from Blountstowu, and within few
miles Of military post. They attacked
his house on Friday evening, shot him
while endeayoring to escape. There was
in the house. at the time Of the attack,
several other persons, two Of whom were
severely wounded. After they had killed
and driven from their homes, the family,
they plIlagcd the house, and set on fire the
dwelling together with several out houses,
The other families that were attacked,
lived in the ncil hborhood, several Of whom
were killed, bat we have not been able to
learn their names. The Indians which
committed these depredauous are said to
number fifty or sixty and conceal them
selves in the hammock between the Apa-
lachicola River and Tallahassee until ia
vorable opportunity offers for them to COM
NIT such like deeds. This forms the fourth
family which has been murdered in that
vicinity since the 23d ult. and is time some
steps were taken to prevent them in future.
