The Indiana had renewed their dep redations, by stsallng a lot of clothing, two horaea, and 150 head of cattle, from Los Vales. Capt Papeau, with 40 men, pursued the Indians 15 miles, without comlni up with them. He then divided his force, Serg't Miller taking command of half the men. Serg'i Miller continued the pursuit, and aix miles further on suddsnly came on the encampment of the Indi ans. A conflict of short duration ensued, in which the Indians were completely routed and put to flight, leaving five of their party dead upon the ground, among whom was Pctrillo, a noted Chief. Col. Washington, with a large force, was scouring the country round in search of marauding Apaches, but with little success.

This is to spprlse all persons in terested in the shipping , interest of this port, that the subscriber Is Harbor Master tnr the port of Wilmington. No. Ca., snd the fees pertaining to said office sre collectable only by himself. Anv de mand made by others should be regarded ss Illegal und assumptive i and against any, ao acting, the law shall be exerted to it fullest exiei t, JNu. S. JAMES, Harbor Master. The singularity of the above advertisement, In an old and well regulated seaport like Wilmington, necessarily requires some explanation ( and in jus tice to myself and the community, I give it. I was elected Harbor Master for the Port of Wilmington, in tho year 1813 1 the Commissioners of Naviga tion (to whom the appointing power belongs) ro elected every year by. tha preph t during the mee ting, of the Legislature, in the winter of '48-'49, the law was ao altered aa to make the day of election of said Commissioners come on the first Monday of May, instead of the first day, for the purpose ot a voiding the consequence of iti coming, at some time, on the Sabbath. From negligence or lrmd vcrtinty, the sew law had escaped rhe otserfjtfon of th people, and the old -day, the first of' .May, was the day on which the election was hoklen, instead of the first Monday, as the lew rtqnlrss. There was some excitement owdmUch industry displsyed on the said day ot slsetlon, which resulted in the suc cess of the ticket which follows, vis : B. Flammeb, D. McMiLtAN, ino. A. Tatlob, Edwabo Kiddes' and O. Q. Passlbt, who a I once assumed the con sequence and importance which should belong ten body so respectable y but, else; tor the glory of their new dignity, In an evil moment, (although they had) month-to consider the matter,) they took It into their wlso heads to turnout the incumbent andput another man In, whose circumstances and business were such that he did not require tbs salary, nor could he attend to the duiiea of the office I will here take occasion to say, that, although the anpoin ing power reats with the Commissions of Naviga tion for their officers, yet there nr time prescri bed, by law. for such appointments, tho natural in ference is, that the election Is good during goed be haviour or on Impeachment. For the establish ment of these facta, precedenta are numerous, and within the memory of many of our citizens. At this tlme.lt is notorious in our community, thai there are no legal Commissioners ol Navigation. JNO. S.JAMES. Wilmington, N. C, Nov. 9th. 1849. 101-3. CANAL FLOUR. A l BBLS.
