From Florida.-We learn from the St. Au. gustine News that Col. HaTney has passed through the Everglades, coming out at Cape Sable. where no white man has ever before proceeded. He surprised a camp of 40 ln- dians, hung ten, and reserved one to take him to Sam Jones' camp. Chekika, who headed the party robbing Indian Key, was among the number. Lieut.. Ord, of the Sd Artillery. in attempting to dislodge Indians from an Island, lost man, had wounded, and though himself the only one uninjuredy succeeded in bringing his men of. Last evening, says the News, we learned the kill ling of Lieut.. Sherwood, 7th Infantry, the wife of an officer, and 2 privateS, near Mi- canopy also teaInster at Pilatka.

 The Danville, Va. Reporter, of the lst, contains an account of one of the most awful series of murders ever pefpetrated by hu- man being. It appeared m evidence before the Coroner's Jury, that on the 22d Decem- Der, a wretch by the name of James E. La- nier, accompanied by three negroes, pro- ceeded to the house of one Betsey Freeman, and deliberately murdered Mrs: Freeman. her daughter Eliza Freeman, and two small bows, the children of the said Eliza. He be- headed one or two of them, beat out the brains of the others with an axe, piled their bodies together, covered them with straw, and then set fire to them. The murderer was prompted to the deed because the boys were his children, and he wanted to get rid of the liability of supporting them. It ap- peared in evidence, that one of the boys, about four years of age. alarmed by the murder of his mother and grandmother, caught the monster around the legs, and im- plored him to save his life. He had scarce iy uttered his request when his head was severed with a single blow from his body The murderer had not been apprehended, though his accomplices were in jail.

 concluded that they had struck upon solid
 rock. but the superintendent bade them take heart. and believe it was gravel. They
 drew up the long drill, 260 feet long, un- screwing it piece by piece, at every l6 feet, and let down upon a rope an iron bucket, made at the top like wire mouse-traP, and with piston and valve above, for the pur- pose of pumping up the gravel or stone which they had lOosened. After working the pump for ten or fifteen minutes they drew up the bucket, and emptied from 1t, as the fruit of some hours labor, a pint of gravel. Thus the work is very slow, advancing by
 inches only. Pipes are sunk as fast as the we'll is bored, a foot or two in external di- ameter, and sometimes of iron :; those which | saw were of rock maple. The whole house, in which the spring is opened, say hfteen feet square by as many in height, rests upon m iron chain, of course ot large size, and that chain upon the top of the descending pipe. SO as to force it downward as fast as the earth is bored away. The boring was an interesting process. One man lifts the long drill by a lever like pump-handlc, and so great n length of pole is sufficient in weight to strike down again with requisite force.
 Two wells have been opened this last sea son. The state has tried the experiment ot
 sinking a we'll to the depth of six hundred feet, for the purpose of finding fossil sGn' which it is supposed must be found' as It IS found in localities in other countries, where salt springs abound, and where the strata of the soil and its composition are the same as at Salina. The experiment at Sallna has as yet been without success. Still 1t may prove successful; for in Europe borings have been made to the depth of 75O. and in one place to 900 feet, and at these depths the salt was found. ....-.-.- The Springs at Salina and Syracuse are inc property of the state. The state bores the wells, pumps the water up to elevated 1 reservoirs, and supplies it to any who may wish to make salt; receiving in return 5 or cents per bushel after the salt is made.- Thus is received an income to the state o1 more than $2O0OOO year. The salt is made by solar evaporation, and by boiling. Acres of ground are covered with vats. The water contains, besides muriate of soda, 1 (comrnon salt) little sulphate and carbo- nate of lime, and some magnesia, so that t IS possible that other products, by and by, may be made from these treasures from the bo- som of the earth. ..ls. 5 @
