INDIAN DIFFICULTIES. We find the follow
ing in the Van Buren, ARK Wing ofthc ! lth
instant:
We regret To learn tia! much excitement
still prevails in the Creek nation, arising out
1Tanother small skirmsh between some Greeks
and Pawnee Mahas. 1t appears that few
Creeks were out on the praries hunting, when
they were waylaid and one Of their number
dangerously wounded by the Pawnee Mahas
The Creeks returned their fire with success,
killing one of their enemies. They then cut
off his arm at the elbow, and again at the wrist;
eating the flesh off the arm, and sending the
hand TO their chief, General Mcintosh, These
facts have been communicated 10 General Ar
buckle; and we understand he has also been re-
quested to station some troops on the Creek ma
ton, in order to stop the visits of these hostile
Indians, who have threatened to attack the
Creeks when the grass is high enough to sub
sist their horses General Mcintosh has called
general council ofall the Indians ofthe prai-
ries, and Of the whole West and Southwest, to
be held in May next at the Creek council
ground.

TRIAL OF THE Rev. Mr. FARcHLD. The
trial of this gentleman at Boston, for alleged Sc
ducton, is still in progress and attracts consid-
cradle interest. The Mail of Wednesday thus
speaks oft,
The court house is thronged by crowds of
people, and not one in a hundred who desire to
witness the examination and see the fair wit
ness and her alleged seducer, can find admit
lance. We made out to elbow our way into
the court room yesterday morning. Miss Da-
wilson was soon called upon the stand She
is quite young looking, and the lineaments OF
her countenance indicate good share of intel
lectual acoumen and keen temper. We saw
the fire flash from her dark eyes at some ques-
tons asked her by ex-judge Warren, who is as
ISOLATED with MIR. Bolles in conducting the de-
fence, but the barred counsel was not affected
by these lightning glances, for he sat as calm
as summers morning, watching every move
ment of her face, and carefully noting every
word she uttered.
MIR. Fairchild, his wife and son sat confront
ing the witness, and listening with great inter-
est to every word which dropped from her lips.
We saw Miss Davidson occasionally cast a
sharp and piercing look at the accused--a look
which we cannot describe. There was some
thing in it which betokened great intensity OF
feeling, whether of love or of hate, or union
of both, we leave others to judge, bad, calm and
collected, he withstood these flashes from her
sparkling orbs as if his soul was absorbed with
deeper emotions than can be excited by wo-
mans eyes. The scene was indeed one of
great interest, and well calculated to wake
strange emotions in the heart He will have a
fair, impartial trial. No stone will be left I'M
turned in his defence, and the prosecuting Of
fcer for the Commonwealth will not be back
ward in the discharge of his duty.

One of the most extensive conhagrations ever
suffered by a village or small town, took place
in Crab Orchard, Lincoln county, on last Tues

not reached us, nothing more than the fact
twenty six houses, in the business part of the
town, were burnt to the ground. The loss to
property holders must have been very great.
