TEE CRIsIs.-The Savannah Geor-
glan of the 18Th inst. las an admira.
bic ari lie on the subject of lie Pres
ldent's Message. We make the fol-
loving extract.
81 his is fearful crisis now before
the country, and the greatest care
and caution are necessary to prevent
one OF the greatest difficulties which
has ever Eefore occurred. A most
unwise policy has been attempted by
The administration. The people Of
the United States cannot be coerced
INTO any abandonment of their Just
rights. The message of the Pres
dent itself admits that Texas has
ngl ts to the territory il d pute with
New Mexico. The very re con,men.
datlon of purchasing Ter title by a
large sum of money admits this fact.
And in the face of this, the threat of
calling on the army and navy to pre-
vent al organization of what Texas
believe to be her rightful territory, is
made, should the people of Texas,
an acknowledged sovereign State,
dare to press the peaceful organiza
zation of her territory Truly we
felr those at the head of the Gov
ernment do not realize the DANGER of
the present crisis, or they would not
thus attempt to force their peculiar
notions.'' e
TERMINATION OF THE FLoRIpA
WAR.-Thc U.SS. steamer Mon.
mouth, Cap. Freeboim, arrived here
on Saturday, and we learn VIII b,
laid up for the present, her services
not beng longer required. A cores
pondent informs us that there are %
companies of u. S. troops, sti in
Florida, some four or five on the
coast near Indian River, the remain-
der n the interior. Those on the
coast are remarkably healthy, but
those in the interior suffer from diar-
rhea; some of the troops with their
baggage Wagons, &C., have been
orderei to Texas, with the intention
to chastise the Cumanches, it is sup
posed. Since the little affair at Peas
Creek, the Indians have committed
no act of hostility, but have remain
ed quiet AMI peaceablc. The dele
CATION OF Seminoles sent to Florida
from Arkansas by the u. S. Govern.
ment, with the mt ,ntiep to induce
the Florida Indians to emigrate, have
entirely failed in their mission. Some
few old superanuated, and some few
degraded Indians, alone have left for
the West. The remainder have
steadily rejected all overtures to emf
CRATE, and probably will be allowed
foreman i'll Florida restricted 10 the
boundaries the government shall see
int TO make out for them. Thus ter-
inmates the last Florida War.
