CRITICAL STATE OF THE WESTERN FROM
Arkansas Intelligencer of the
Both ult, says From all the information
We have received concerning the late outra-
in the Cherokee Nation, we are convin-
Led that a regular rebellion was organised
tgainst the constituted authorities of the Ma

Ross, the Chief Justice, w. s. Condey, John
and Elijah Hicks, five of the most
opular and influential men in the country,
we're to have been assassinated on the 25th

heads of the party, and by looping them

t Mr.. Wore was to have taken place the
anne night as the others, but for some reason

associat es, and killed him on the 22d.

cessaries, will escape the punishment they j
