FROM FLORIDA.
We have already mentioned the recent murders by
the Indians in East Florida, but the following extract
from the ST. augustine Setrs, more particular state
ment than has before been published:
Asoru Err IspIAs OrrRiGE.-.Murder and destruction
of ProDeriu.-For some time past, citizens in this
section of the country, East of the ST. Johns have
been ued into apparent security, under the idle and
vague belief that there danger to be apprehend
ed since the notorious Wild Cat and his party, who
were believed to be the only Indians who have from
time TO time committed depredatIons on this side OF
the river, were shipped to the West. But we have
now to record the fact, that Monday last party
Of twenty Indians approached the settlements at
Mandarin, and after capturing old negro belonging
Mr. William Hartly, laid by until night when they at
tackled the house OF that gentleman, (Wm. HartleyD
who happened 10 be out hunting, killed his wife and
child, and Messrs. Domingo Acosto, and VIM. Molpus.
TIE Indians after committing the foul deed, plundered
the house and applied the torch II was consumed oye
Their with the out buildings. They then proceeded to
the plantations of Nathaniel and Georg Hartley, the in
mates having fled, and likewise burnt and destroyed
them. The Indians then proceeded short distance
in soutberly direction, where they cncamped until
morning, when they released the old negro and pro-
ceeded on their course.
Cant Curry, of Mandarin, with few other citizens,
followed the trail the next day for distance, until
il was finally lost

A HEAVY FAILURE Is NEW YoRK.-The N. York
Courier, says:-"A leading house at the Stock Board,
alessrs McAllster * S,ebbins declared their inability
10 comply with their engagements, TO which unforu
circumstance the heavy fall in the stocks Of the
Western States may be attributed. These gentle
men had psid the interest due here the Slate
debt of Illinois, which fell due last July, amount
ing 10 100000, upon receiving as security from the
Commissioner Of that State, Mr.. Whitesides Bonds
Of the State TO the amount of 81 100000, due in
1885, he agreeing 10 refund the money advanced upon
the l7.h inst. Failing 10 do this, Nessrs McAlister
& Stebbins became the sacrifice. MIR. Wbesdes
has exertcd himself 10 the utmost TO prevent this
result bu. unfortunately there some legal defect
in the powers under which he acted, and we need
scarcely say that with the experience of the last few
weeks before them, capitalists closely scrutinize the
lidity OF the powers under which State Commissioners
act This defect cannot be remedied in less than sixty
days. otherwise to our certain knowledge, one large
and influential banker stood ready to advance half the
amount required, and the other halt would have been
obtained without difficulty on the Securities held BY
Mr. Whi,csides Messrs MICA. and S. were prevented
by an injunction from selling the stock hypothecaed
with them, and they were thus prevented meeting the
