FIGuT BETWEEN THE CREEK AND
PAwNtE INDIANS. The Arkansas In
teligencer OF the I'd ult, says:-
We learn through Mr. J. w. Taylor,
a respectable merchant of the Creek ma
ton, that the PaWaee Mahas attacked,
about ten days since, the Creeks who
live upon Lutte River near the store OF
Thomas Hazen.
'The Creeks were attacked by the
Puwnees, but repulsed them after killing
six oftheir warriors, and without any loss
on their side.
'The Pawnees have returned TO their
home upon the wild prairies, for a rein
lorcement, with which they have sworn
to return and take revenge. The scat
tering Creeks are removing from the cx-
posed quarter to the denscr settlements
The Creeks were dancing round the
scalps, and our informant says, were
greatly excited. An account Of the al
fair has been handed to the Commanding
Officer at Fort Gibson.
This ARRAY occurred in the country
which was apPoitioned to the Seminoles
by the late treaty, and whittier they are
daily removing. The Pawnees, when
they come back to fulfil their threat, will
find Troublesome customer in Halcck
Tuste-nug-gee, the Seminole chief, and
will be apt to lose plenty scalp

PROPER PUNISHMENT. One evening
last week young lady of Portland, re-
turning home, was accosted by young
man, who insisted on accompanying her.
Finding resistance useless she took his
arm and walked to her residence at the
extreme end Of the city, when she seized
his cap, beautiful and expensive one,
and would not let him have it again
She told him that if he wanted it he
might receive it the next day by calling
at certain shop in Exchange street
but he has not yet been after it. The
best Of the story is,that his name is in it .,
and he is of course known.
