The Florida indians.-Refusal OF the
Semiouoles 10 Move.

The Sernnoles have refused emigrate, and
the agent of the General Government who
has in charge the Indian affairs of Florida
has given up all hopes of ever inducing them
to change their determination.
BY information received from proper au-
thority, we are in formed that the indian DEL
egation now at Fort Myers will leave, on
their return to Arkansas, in the U. s.
steamer Fashion, which is expected here be.
fore the end of the month.
We regret to learn that very few Of the
Florida Indians have come in To accompany
the delegation. Two mel, of about 80 years
ofage, and two women, with four children,
are all that were in for emigration on the 22d,
and no more were expected, unless by chance
the family of one OF these warriors.
Our informant further states: 1.-The dele
gates have done their duty, by making known
to the Seminoles the terms offered By the Gov
eminent; nor was much more expected as
the Immediate result of their visit. Although
there is no hope of general emigration this
spring, the anxiety of the Indians for peace.
and their decreasing stock ofammUnit;on and
calicoes, together with the inducements
held out TO them, may yet, it is hoped, avert
the necessity of coercion or an Indian
War.
