Indian War in Florida a. Rumored
Death of Billy Bowlegs.

The Tampa Ella, Pe''insular, gives the
result of two scouting parties from hich
it has just heard-one under Captain
johnson and the other under Captain
Sparkman. The formers killed three In
dians and captured five, and the latter's
captured one squaw and her child, The
Indians are supposed to be in starving
condition. The guns which have been
taken away from them in their late fights
are IN a worthless condition, stocked by
themselves, with the barrels tied into the
stocks, the locks tied on to the barrels,
and the flint tied into the hammer; and it
is said they will miss fire nine times out of
ten. The volunteers destroyed all of their
provisions, corn, &C., the past summer,
and they can get nothing to subsist on
but what they kill with those poor guns,
which is but little 1t is rumored that
Gen. Billy Bowlegs is dead.

MOBOCRACY AGAINI
May %, 1851.

LOUISVILLE, May l4.-The four slaves
charged with numbering the Joyce family
near the mouth of Salt River, some time
since, were acquitted in the Jefferson Cir
cult Court this evening. A nolle prose
9ui was entered in the case of the boy
Bill, who was made witness for the Com
moEweath against the Others. A mob,
headed by son of the Joyce family, made
several attempts to force an entrance into
the Jail, but failed, owing to the timely
interference of the police. Gen. Pitcher,
the Mayor, Immediately planted force
of ten or twelve armed men, inside of the
Jail. On the approach of the mob after
ten several volleys were fired in the air,
by the Mayors force, for the purpose of
intimidating the mob, who in the meantime
were yelling like madmen, and apparently
bent on taking the lives of the negroes.
Speeches were made by prominent citi-
zens and all efforts used to quell the ex-
citement. The mob then procured can
non, which was loaded to the muzzle, and
pointed against the door of the prison,
Will d liS utcu luutCu IcduJ ~ tOuCu III Oil,
when the jailors capitulated. One negro
cut his throat inside of the Jail, and three
others were hanged on the trees. It is
feared the mob will pursue and do vio-
lence to Messrs. Rosseau, Wolfe and Mix,
the attorneys who defended the negroes.
Mayor Pitcher was struck fair in the
face with brick, and conveyed to his
residence. One watchman had finger
shot off, and lad was severely Injured by
falling out of tree: The negro who cut
his throat is the same who turned States
evidence. One was kicked and beaten
nearly to death. Another was stabbed
twice before he was hung. His pockets
were filed with powder, and clothes set
on FIRE. The mob finally dispersed, with
ont committing further violence. The
ringleaders were principally from Salt
River. Joyce was frantic. and an ineffec-
tual effort was made to secure him.

THE WASHINGTON COUNTY MURDER =
The Washington Eramiaeer, received last
night, says that the District Attorney of
that county is cognizant of facts which
point out the perpetrators of this terrible
tragedy with almost unerring certainty.
The confession of Jones, which was
published in the PittsDurg Dispatch, and
afterwards copied into other papers, is
pronounced fabrication. There is no
such person in Washington county Jail as
Hutchinson, and Jones positively denies
making confession to any one Kheel-

The RAGE FOR LAND SPECULATION

The RAGE FOR LAND SPECULATION
A letter in the last Dubuque Herald,
written from the Usage land Office, Iowa,
says that there are about two thousand
persons IN attendance on the land sales,
and that great competition exists between
spectators and the settlers. This COM
petition had been carried to bidding $40
per acre for the wild land. The settlers
had held meeting, and organized them
selves into a club numbering seven hun
dred, and determined that every settler
should have the privilege of bidding off a
quarter section of land, in addition to one
quarter covered by pre-emption, at gov
ernment price. Attempts were made to
settle all difficulties on this basis, by the
settlers furnishing names of persons who
were bidders; but this had not been done
up to the time our informant left. As q
consequence, very few tracts of land were
sold.

Illness of Judge Butler.

The South Carolsnian learns by pri-
vate letter from Edgefeld, that Judge
Butler, Senator in Congress from South
Carolina, is seriously ill. Since his re-
turn from Washington, he has been an in.
valid, exhausted, constantly sick, and daily
growing worse, and from present accounts
it is much feared that his life is drawing
to close. The excessive duties of the
past session, which he felt most oppres-
sively, induced him to ask relief from being
Chairman of the Judiciary Committee;
but his request was not acceded to, in view
of the great value of his personal services.
Since the death of Mr. Brooks, the Judge
has never rallied, and the shaft which laid
low the former, has, no doubt, grievously
wounded the latter also.

g- Before the Cincinnati Conver

H- Before the Cincinnati Conven-
tion, when we, with sundry other editors,
were advocating the nomination of James
Buchanan, certain class of papers in this
State professed to be strongly opposed to
our course. They said sneeringly that
1T was soon enough to announce the name
when the nomination was made.
Although their object was apparent
enough, we cannot forbear reminding
them of it, when three-fourths of the same
editors are, week after week, eulogising
some favorite candidate for Governor If
we were as uncharitable as some of them.
we might say something not very pleasant
and still say no more than the truth
