LATER FROM FLoRIDA.-Bythe steamboat VIM.
Castor, Capt. Freedom, from Florida, the Savan-
nah Republican has received the Ocala Argus.
from which the impression is taken that the Indians
are preparing fora general war, having, during the
past year, provided themselves with considerable
quantities of powder and lead The principal In
dian villages are located on the CarIosahatchee
river, about three DAYS journey from Ocala. They
number, may be, 500 warriors, and are under the
chief Halatter Niece or Billy Bowlegs. The sub
chiefs are Assinwar and Sam Jones, the latter is
now nearly a hundred years old /; his counsel has
always been taken by the Indians, and he is very
vindictiye towards the whites.
By the VIM. Castor the accounts received here
by the Florida mail, reached Savannah that the In
dions- have murdered several negroes on plaHta-
ton near Tampa Bay, destroyed a bridge, and
other properly A detachment of IS United States
troops went out from the post at Tampa Bay, and
discovered party Of about 100 warriors, painted
in war style, and being the weaker party it was
deemed prudent to return TO Tampa Bay.
The steamer Ocmulgee has been chartered to
proceed to Jacksonville, 10 take the company of
mounted men, raised there by order of the Gov
ernor of Florida, to. Lake Monroe.

BIEDMONT.
The negotiations for the conclusion Of Peace
between Austria and Piedmont, says letter from
Turin Of the 18th, are suspended. i
The exgences of Austria are the recommends
tons of M. Galdna and the Envoy of Piedmont in
London, who always writes to proerastinate as
much as possible the definite arrangement of the
Austrio Sandman question, are the sole cause of
the delay.
On the LIST August, the chambers are convoked
and if they are animated by the extravagant spirit
Of the preceding Legislature they will at once divest
the king Of the power Of -- and probably drive
him toa renewakpf hostiities.
PRUSSIA AND DENMARK.
The armistice between Prussia and Denmark
has been ratified. suspension Of hostilites both
by sea and land for six months is agreed to- At
the close Of this period the aFmistce if not 10 be
renewed is to continue six months longer The
blockade is TO be raised as soon as the Prussian
troops have been moved TO the south of Flensburg
The captured vessels with their cargOes are to be
restored ON both sides. ~
During the continuance of the Armistiee, the
Duchy of Scheswig is 10 be governed by a Com
mission, of which one member is 10 be nominated
by the King Of Denmark and one by the King of
Prussia. The Queen of England is to be requested
TO nominate third member, who is TO decide in al

The North of Germany is again quiet, but in the
South, the insurgents still hold out within the for

Prussian troops. The lives of the captive Repub-

of this road 10 this town and surrounding coun'
try, if once completed, are easily enumerated.
Il would pass through Il rich and populOuS coun-
Ir\ aud rs produce always commands higher
price ON the line of the Canal than it does on The

moro than doubed--lhe business OF our mo.
chanics would bsgreaIly incrrased--it would in
fact have tendency 10 give life aud energy 10
every department of business. All that is wan
ted 10 secure the completion Of this road is, for
few of our citizens To take hold-have NEE.
,ings and select persons TO sell tho stock. Bu
few farmers along the road, when once informed
Of its great advanages--the facility that i
would afford them to get their grain 10 marke
the tendency that il would have to increase
the price of their land, would refuse to purchase
stock. They could pay the amount subscribed
in grading the road and by furnishing ,imbe
from their own land. The amount thus inves
