Arkansas true Democrat., 1861-08-29

We have had pleasant times. Maj. Rector, the superintendent has been with us since our arrival at the Seminole agency; also c. 5. Johnson, esq., of Fort Smith. These gentlemen can make bad times good times any where. MT. l. G. Wore has been of our party; and the most renowned inter- preter, leader and prairiema of the day, Jess Chisholm.
 For the sake of those who may be concerned about their friends with us, will state that each and every one eats entirely too much and ta'@S more about this pretty squaw and that pretty squaw' than he ought.
 There has been disposition on the part of many gentlemen at points our way, to further the wishes and success of the commissioner. Ihey have accepted his drafts cheerfully, cashed them when necessary, and in many ways manifested spirit of accommodation that was as unexpected as saluaJle Col Lanigan at Fort Gibson extended Inequalities of his home to all of our party that visited the town; Col. Garrett at the Creek Agen- cy threw open his doors and entertained us for weeks; Wm. H. Rogers, esq, was constant III his the Inequalities and accommodations at the North Fork; also Col. Armstead At the Seminole Agency, MT. White, the trader, advanced means and offered all the goods he had in possession; Mir Mcdonald extended many favors; and at this point we have been befriended by the reserve trader, MT. Shirley, to a great degree and in divers ways It IS easy for men to wish we'll to cause with the tongue but to plank out goods from ones shelves and money from his purse is something that re- quires acknowledgement as public as newspaper can make it.
 If had time to continue my note should at tempt description of the destruction of the public property in the valley of the False Washlta, at the time of the U. $. troops leaving the three posts, Washita, Cobb and Arbuckle. It was appalling and wanton beyond conception, to any one who has not witnessed the effects of it.
 Motey Kinnard, the Principal Chief of the Creeks, John Jumper the Principal Chief of the Somnoles Gen. Chilly Mcintosh and the other delegates of the two Nations returned yesterday to their homes. A day or two previously to leav- ing, Capt. Pike presented flags to the two Cheis, made an addrese to them, and went through the usual formaities of flag presentation. There never was a more interesting occasion ofthe kind; for no movement whatever was made for show, Capt. Pike being deeply in earnest, and the two Chiefs totally unacquainted with any ideas ot dis play formere appearance sake. Motey and Jum- per both responded, and at the raising of the flags the war whoop was given and quick volleys were fired by the warriors. Our escort will bear the flags on our march, and carry them into the Creek regiment on their return. 1 shall preserve the re- marks made on both sides and publish them at some time and whoever shall see them will dis cover something very different from the "hgh falutin'' to which they have been accustomed.
 The commission has carried Confederate flag since leaving the North Fork. It was made by Miss Jemima Islands, beautiful Creek girl and neice of the Principal Chief. The Creek and Seminole flags were made by Miss Alice Leeper daughter of the agent of the Confederate States for the Comanches, Wichtas and other bands of the reserves The devices were new and appropriate. A crescent and red star in green union and up- right bars of red and white for the Creeks, and the same for the Seminoes with the exception of di- agonal bars.
 We shall be among the buffaloes in two days.
