From FLoRiDA.-The troops in the field, com
manded by Col. Worth in person after some efforts
succeeded on the 10Th in bringing the enemy under
FIalleck Tus,eauggee, to action in the hammocks
near the Sand Hills. After severe and well.con
tested fight, the enemy precipiately fled; their
rout was complete; all their baggage and food were
taken; the enemy's loss was one killed,two wound
ed, and prisoner; our loss, one private killed,
and three wounded. 1t is said that the Indians
fou ght with the most determined courage, and
only gave ground the point of the bayonet-
Lieut.. Arnold, I'd Dragons, charged the enemy's
line with only four men; one of them was killed
and two wounded. Col. Worth was within twenty
feet of the soldier killed. Savannah Georgian.

have on The next election | belong TO the demo-
cratic wing party, and am confident that the cleo
tors OF that party in the Southern Tier are almost
unanimous IN opposition 10 any further Legislative
aid to the New FORK and Erie Railroad Company.
Many intelligent men OF both parties consider this
work useless expenditure OF money, the Ere Ca
nal being fully ample with It's present dimensions to
do all the carrying that will offer, as In few years
the business of the Lakes must be divided between
the Pennsylvania and Maryland improvements and
If the citizens of New York fear the trade of the
West being diverted TO Boston, let them immediate
ly build the New York and Albany abroad and if
there is advantages in railroad transportation ever
canal, let them extend that road To Buffalo and
D,nklrk, which is only about the same distance by
Albany as by the New York and Erie Railroad, and
have the advantages of level or descending grade
from Lake Erie TO the Hudson, very important
consideration, as the descending is some six or se-
ven TO one, TO the ascending trade The New York
and Erie Railroad has very considerable distance
of heavy grades TO and from tide water. The
county through which it passes is uneven, and some
part infamous, and will cost double the money
that a road will cost by Albany and the valley of
the Mohawk.
One very important fact the citizens of the city
OF New York should bear in mind is, that Elmra,
which Is on the line OF this road is by the Elmira
and Williamsport Railroad and Pennsylvania i'm
provements, forty miles nearer Baltimore, and by
the Pennsylv ania Canal Commissioners report one
mile and halfnearer Philadelph la than New YORK,
having descending grade eastward, with an exccp-
ton of about twenty miles of quite light ascending
grade, and only requiring fortysix miles of railroad
to form the connexon (Elmira to Baston) If the
New York and Erie X railroad is made, II will soon
be more generally known, at least the Western part
OF il, as the Philadelphia, Baltimore and Erie Rail
road More anon.
