    FLORIDA WAR.
Gen. A. MoC'omb, who it will be recol
lected, was ordered sometime since to ro
pair to Florida; and to ncgociato a peace
with the Indiana in that quatlcr, has written
a letter to the Secretary of War, giving a
detailed statement of his operations. Ho
represents the Indians as having been anx
ious for peace, but desirous of remaining in
that section of country for the present, hut
thinks tliero will he no difficulty in eventu
ally persuading them to emigrate west of
the Mississippi, as soon as they can be sat
isfied that their brethren who havo already
gone there, are favorably located. But for
the present ho has thought it advisable to
conclude a treaty with them allowing them
to remain within, that territory. The fol
lowing general order of Gen. McComb, cm
traces the substance of the treaty, the con
ditions of which ho represents as having
given general satisfaction to tho Indians,
aud which Jib has no doubt will bo faithful
ly kept on their part. Thus wo hope this
interminable war, which hts cost the nation
millions, has terminated.
GENERAL ORDER.
Headquarters of the Army of the U. S.
Fort King, Florida, May 18, 1839.
The Major-general-corn tnanding-in-chicf
has the satisfaction of announcing to the ar
my in Florida, to the authorities of the Ter
ritory, and to the citizens generally, that he
lias this day terminated the war with the
Seminole Indians, by an agreement entered
into with Chi'.to-Tustenuggc, principal
chief of the Scminolcs, and successor to
Ar-pi-cke, commonly called Sam Jones,
brought to this port by Lieut, Col. Harney,
of the 2d dragoons, from the southern part
of the peninsula. Tho terms of the agree
ment are that the hostilities immediately
cease between the parlies; that the troops
of the United States and the Seminole and
Rlickasukic chiefs and warriors, now at a
distance, bo made acquainted as soon as
possible with the fact that peaco exists, and
that all hostilities arc forthwith to cease on
both sides; the Scminolcs and Micassukies
agreeing to retire into a district of country
in Florida below Pease creek, the bounda
ries of which arc as follows viz: beginning
at the most southern point of land between
Charlotte harbor and the Colooshatchee
river, at Sauybel Island; thence into Char
lotte harbor by the southern pass between
Pino Island and said point, along the east
ern shore of said harbor to Talak-Chopko
or Pease creek ; thence up that river to
Hatchec Thloko or Big creek, thence up
said creek to its source; thence easterly to
the Northern point of lakelstnpoga; thence
along the eastern outlet of said lake, called
Istopoga creek, to tho . Kissimmc river;
thence southwardly down the Kissnnme to
lake Okc-Chobcc; thence south through
said lake to Ecahlahatch ee or Shark river;
thence down said river westwardly to its
mouth; thence along the sea shore north
wardly to the place of beginning; that six
ty day3 bo allowed the Indians north and
east of that boundary to remove their fami
lies and eflccls into said district, where they
are to remain until further arrangements are
made under the protection of the troops o(
the United Slates, who are to sec that they
be not molested by intruders, citizens, or
foreigners, and that the said Indians do not
pass the limits assigned them, except to
visit tho ports which will be hereafter indi
cated to them. All persons are therefore
forbidden to enter the district assigned to
said Indians, without written permission
from some commanding officer of a military
port.

After a trial of over four weeks, T. W.
Dyott, of shin-plaster memory, has been
convic cd of swindling, by a jury of his
country. The penalty for the offence is
fiora one to seven years imprisonment.
VIRGINIA ELECTION.
Tho returns from this stale indicate the
manner in which the battle has been fought,
as the result shows that it ha3 been closely
contested. The majority of tho Democrats
in the Senate is four. The memheis of the
House thus far elected are Democrats 01,
AVhigs and Conservatives 02. The re
maining counties to be heard from stood
Jast year 0 Democrats to 3 Federalists, The
Richmond Enquirer says: "Vfc have al
ready won the most brilliant victories ; and
we shall save the State from the Whigs
and Conservatives. Mr. Rives' chance is
gone. Ho carnot bo re-elected Senator
nor can a Whig. Ho is only half way in
iia difficulties."
So far as the Congressional returns have
been received, 11 Democrats, 7 Federal
wis and 2 Conservatives havo besn elected.
In the romaining district a Democrat will
undoubtedly be elected.
From a careful estimate, recently made,
it is found that Texas has at least 130,000,
000 acres of land unlocatcd, and among
them some of tho -finest in the world.
