editor, giving further particulars of the late Indian
murders in Georgia, an account of which appeared
in our paper of Thursday last ;

' Sia s The Express has just arrived from Little
Creek, and it appears that the Indians are com

a letter from an officer of our regiment, who was
an eye-witness to this melancholy, jact. r
v.: ' ' . .T'sUCT.J ::' f;
Camp Wans, July 31, 1833.
Forty-five miles north 'st of Centreville, on
Sunday morning, a man came full speed into camp,
with the crv of Indians. I asked where. He said
about five miles off ; that he ha'd just removed a
femily who heard the report of guns, and the
screams of people. Ve were on our aaouies in a
few moments, aud under full speed to tne spot
where the. alarm originated; and oh Ood! ol ai
the scenes I ever saw, or wish to see, presented it
self to view. Ou reaching the ground, a man, wife
and" four of his own. and two of his sister's children,
had fallen bv the Indians. Three children of Ihe
six were,alive when we reached the spot. One a
bout three years old had been ahot through the ab
domen. and lay asleep on the dead mother; ano
ther, about ten rods trom the mother. But ohThor
nitotetl! Ifouiuf a Tne "young lady of eighteen
shot in two places, and dirked in another, with
bout twenty hogs around her, and she yet alive,
and had her senses perfectly. This was the most
Irving time I had ever seen. I gave ber cold wa
ter, which she wished much,' and remained with
her as long as I could, till obliged to go in search
of the Indiuns. We left a guard to protect them
and administer to them all that they could, but all
expired in less than twenty minutes after we left.
The Indians scattered in all directions, and it was
some time before we could find the trail; we fol
lowed them about 25 miles, ind anttl further pur
suit could not be had, having then gone into the
Okafanoka as far as white man could well go. We
left our horses and waded nearly to our hips in
mud lor two mil0S,whtcbwaB as-much -aa-w
could stand. We returned that night, found all
buried, 8 in number, in one grave. , We returned
to camp, then camp , but now Camp Wilds,
that being the name of the. murdered family. Two
children-escaped ; one of them says that a white
man was with the Indians, and caught him and
asked him why he did not run; the boy told him he
would if he would let hin, go, which the man did,
and said, 'Now , damn you, run,' and so he escaped.
On our return we found all the families had been
removed to our encampment.

The flames were blown by a fresh north-west

such fury as to render the efforts of the firemen un

Tba fire swept through in a south-easterly direc

the old Presbvterian Church, doing great damage.
Two extensive lumber yards, one belonging to
Mr. need, and the other to Mr. Hudson, were en

The flames were distinctly seen many miles up
and down the river. e were at Kingston at 7
P. M., where the illumination was alurminglyiub-

In passing Htidjron at 2 nVfock ihil morning, in
the Stesmb.Mii Kochester, we sre informed that six

estimated at 1200,000. This is a sad blow for
Hudson.

on Thursday called lo view the body of an infant
aged nine weeks, the child of Mrs. Caroline Ksj

a caution to mothers in future. Il appears ibat
Mrs. K., who is a mutt, and who has been married
sUhiI a year, went lo the Asylum for the Deaf end
Dumb, on Vt ethtesdsy, lo seesome of her old play

site got ol of the car at Walker street, and walked
home, with the child ro her arms. As she could
not of course hear, she was iu constant anxiety lest
something should run against her and injure the
infant, so she pressed il close to her bosom and
went on at a rapid pace, turning her head either

A part of the roof of the Philadelphia railroad
