INDIAN TREATIES.‘~Erfract off! It-U67‘
to the editor of the Missouri Iufelfigenccr,
ofafed St. Louis, June 4.
Dedr Sir :--—I have the pleastrre to irrforut
you thaf treaties have been cottcluded by gen-
eral Clark, wi!h the Kansas and Oasagc Indi-
ans, for the cesston ofall the lands which they
held within this state, and also for a COHSider~
able district ofcountry west of Missouri and
_A,~1;;m5a5_ Sever-a-l new and advantageous
stipulations have been introduced into these
trearies. The Kansas are to pay for all horses
or other property stolen or taken by tlrerrr fur
the white people since the year 1815, and the
Osages are in like manner to pay for all sim-
ilardepredations committed by them since the
year 1808. These stipulations, of course,
cannot take effect until after the treaties are
ratified by the President and Senate, when,
upon proof being made to the Superintendent
oflndian Affairs at St. Louis, I3‘-U'|"e”t will
be tirade. The suirr ofeiglrt thousand dollars
is appropriated by the treaties to these indem-
nities." Thes_e Indians are also to pay for all
ftrttrre irrjrrries ofthe same" kind, the atirount
of which isto be annually stopped outoftheir,
annuities, on nraking proof to the agents of
the value ofthe property taken. The corirrtry
west of Missotrri and Arkansas is appropriated
to the use ofthe Kansas and Osages, and of
the other Indians trow within the litrrits oftltis
state,none of whom are to settle tvitliin E20
leagues ofour botrndary. Thus these import-_
ant treaties have been concluded, by virtue of
which the beautiful tract of country on the
western bor_der of this state, will be laid open
‘to the settlerircnt ol the white people, and the
'who]e'_s'tate is to be freed from the nuisance
of an Indian population. Many ofoiir fron-
tier citizens and adverrtrirers to Mexico will
be itrtletntiified‘ for their losses, and the obli-
gation to payfor thefts and robbcrics, oirt
ofltheir jannuities, will operate as a secrrrity
against future depredations, and will make
the whole nation responsible for the good be-
haviour of each irrdivitlual. The stipulations
to prevent all Itrdians from settling within 60
miles of our boundary, is one ofthe wisest ev-
er put into a treaty. It will be advarrtageoirs
,0 both Indians and white people, for it will
leave a clear space between them, wide e-
nough to prevent encroac ‘on each oth-
ers territory,and allow t‘(
without getting upon In
the Indians a pretext fo
it. Upon the whole, I
most advarrtageous Trea gade for
Missouri, and must have the edt f giving
tranquility to her frontier, securing it against
future interr-option from Indians, bringing a
beautifulpart ofthe country into cultivation,
greatly increasing the stream of etrrigratioir
to our Western border, and giving it a dense
and ,,m,.e,-rul population wlriclr ‘will for ever
place it beyond the dread oflrrdtan wars.

Tire prospect of a Canal cotnmurrication
between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, a-
cross the isthmus ofNicartrgtia,becotites dzrily
Iess remote and unccrtairr. It is air addition-
al satisfaction to krrotv that in this itnportatrt
work the United States is likely to be a par-
ticipator. A company ofN.York merchants
_sent out Curtis Bolton, Esq. a respectable
mercltant o_f that city, to investigate the pro-
posed rotite by tvay ofthe San Juan River,
and the Lakes ofNicaragrra, with a view to
carry into execution a work by which the
commercial interests of both countries will be
so considerably benefitted. The San Juan
River is about 100 miles in length, and ofsafe
andheasy navigatiotr. Tire Lake is a fine
sheet of water for shipping of from 60 to 70
miles in length. The principal expenditures
will. be required itr the small river which lies
between the Lake and‘ the Pacific. This riv-
er is called’ the Rio Leago, but as the materi-
als for the construction oftlte canal are plerr-
tiful and convenient, the difficulties may be
easily overcotne. The result ofthe survey
‘ 'vih'i'clr is notv going on, will probably be soon
laid befiire the public in an official form, as
Mr. Bolton has returned in the Slrarlt ; and,
as every 'c'on'fideri‘c'e is rep_oscdinhis skill and
Experience, the appearance_ of his report: If“
should coincide in its purport with the °P[“‘
ions which seeih to prevail on the subject, W_lllr
in all likelilr'o‘od, be the signal for the active
commeticetirent of the utrtlertaking. The
English goveririnetrt is doubtless alive tojtlre
imitortance of possessing a key to the Puct_fl0a
by one of the netviy emancipated countries-
As yet, however, we lra_'ve heard of _n0 Slel’
which has been taken of siifficient vigour to
induce a fear that we may be anticipated. If,
therefore, the contetrrplated canal is to be
c‘ohstt'ucted, and American mercltants are to
share in the credit and advantage ofthe work:
the sooner a vigorotrs systern of operations
can be commenced, the better. The advant-
age trlilcli wotrld result to our commerce is too
obviorrs to admit ofa rnotrrent’s dotibt or lies-
itatioir ; and we ought, therefore, to be prompt
and energetic in seizing irporr the opportunity
which is now trffer”ed to us.

bly to orders the troops ofthe first Brigade of
Artillery doing duty with nrusitets, about 800
in number, formed in line in front of Gerreral

field pieces under the cotnirrand of Lt. Col.
Hopkins formed at the same hour in “fash-
irrgtotr street on the right of Hobokcn ferry,
from wlretrce the General was to depart. Be-
tween 6 and 7 o’clock the General presented
himselt at the door, when lie was saluted by
the troops. Tire line then tvheeled into open
columns and proceeded tip Bro:rdwa_v 8:. dotvn

or and the Recorder, with the committee of
arrangeinents and several ofthe trrettrhets of

and Benedict and their suites,follotved in car-
rrages. On the arrival of the troops at the
ferry they were halted and formed into line.
The General desceirded from his carriage, Ysz.
followed by the gentletnen who had attended
him, went dowti tlte line atrd was saluted. He
was, at his particular request, introduced to
each officer as he passed, and taking them af-
fectionately by the hand bade them farewell.
—--He then reviewed in the satne rnanuer the
battalion of field Artillery. The arch 8L gate-
way at the steam boat landing was tastefully
decorated with flags. Upon his entering the
landing place ofthe ferry, crowds of individ-
uals pressed forward to take once more by the
hand the man who had lortg been the object
ofthe-ir affectionate regard ; and the affection
displayed on the occasion tirade it a scene
soleinti and interesting, and one which will
long be renretrrbered by those who witnessed
it. The General, and the gentlemen who at-
tended hiin, entered the steam boat, and on
leaving the tvharfa salute was fired from the
battalion of Artillery. On his arrival at Ho-
bokerr, he was trret by the Aides dc Camp of

FROM Cv‘REECE.—Extract of a letter
dated Zante, May 2.——“I gave you in one of
my preceding letters all the details ofthe cu-
terprise of the Egyptians in the south of the
Morea, to the 19th April,inclusive. [inform-
ed you their, that Ibrahim Pacha, sou ofMe-
herriit All of Egypt, niar_ked his first proceed-
ings with tlesolation—-notwithstariding certain
persons still represent him as a philatrtlrropic
Visir. After having burned the villages of
Olives, wlriclt had been abandoned by the in-
lrabitatrts at his approach, he prepared to
march forward, thirrking as he had so far suc-
ceeded, he slrotrld ‘find before him iiothing
but Bedouins and Nubians. He tliotight lo
be able to ta|teNavarin,a weak fortress,tvlriclr
was then guarded only by 700 Gre_ek5, He
had scaling ladders tirade,to carry it by assault
and entrusted the expeditiotr to Col. Seive, a
renegado, who bears the name of Solim-,m__.
As to Ibrahim Pacba, he advanced with his
army, dragging his heavy artillery, comman-
tied by some European vagabonds, and fol-
certain engineers,who do not merit the natne,
&z, whom it is of no rise to make you acquain.
red with. It is said that two well known
Frenclrmen were among these adventurers,
but it is notv certain they received a difi'ereirr
appointment.
Ibrahim Pacha having arrived before Na-
varin, profited by the darkness of night to
make his _r.rreparatiorrs for an assault, on the
success of which he depended so trruclr that
in an intercepted letter addressed to his father
he announced to hitn without hesitation. that
the conquest of the Peloponesus was at hand
—on tvlriclr account rejoicirigs were tirade at
Smyrna and Cotrstatrtinople. The Greeks,
irifortired ofthe design oftheir etieuty, suffer-
ed him to atlvarrce, make his preparations,
place his scaling ladders, and did not begin to
fire upon the Barbariatrs until they reaclreil
the parapet. In at rrrotrieritflre terror liccaliie
general——the cartnoir were loaded with carr-
nistcr shot. '.[‘lre firing so completely crushed
the assailants, that very few oftlrent returned
to their Pacha to acquaint hint with their de-
feat. At the foot of the ramparts were trrore
than 400 Egyptians, negroes, and strangers,
struggling with death, ftrr the Turks were not
able to take away airy of their wounded.
“Tire Pacha lbralrirn, furiotrs atihis de-
feat, ortleretl a secoirtl assault for the next
morning, which was Easter, and which the
Greeks were preparing to celebrate with the
suitablesolctnnitics. During the rtiglrt, Air
agnostaros, who occtrpied the Island ofSphac-
tcria, with seven lrttndred troops, sent a good
reitrforcenrerrt nftroops to the garrison ofthe
place. Four Ilydriot vessels, cotnplctely c-
quippcd in a w'.rt‘lll(e nranner, landed a great
part of their routines and soldiers, and the
Trrrks having made a furious .'ttt:rck, were re-
ceived by a well kept up fire, and very few cs-
caped the carnage. Those who were made
prisoners were carried to Navariti, and be-
catrre the sport of the Greeks, who amrised
themselves in making them go throirgh the
martial exercises, carry bags filled with dirt,
labottr upon the fortifications, and have since
etnbarked them on board ships to serve under
the sailors as slaves.
Ibralrinr, convinced that it was impossible
to attempt a third assault, began the siege, by
causing three batteries to be fortrrcd, within
hzrlfgutr shot. These were fired so constant-
ly that a breach might ha vc been made in 3
days, and one ofthe fronts being broken, the
scaling inigirthave been successsftil. A de-
cisive attack was anticipated, but the Hellen-
tcn garrison, which was trow twelve hundred
trren strong, without stiffering themselves to
be discouraged, labored with so iiitich strccess
du_ritrg the night, that they filled tip with bags
ofearth the opening tnade by the Trirkisli ar-
tillery. \Vor'l1ing night and day, they built
cascmates, and the city assumed an aspect of
defence which seemed impossible, by the ac-
tivity of the Christians who were again to
conqrrer by themselves alotie, and to confound
the plans that an enemy had formed against
them. It was after taking these measures of
safety that they celebrated the funeral ofJolin
Mauro-Michalis. He wrote before his death
a touching letter to his father, his relations,
anti friends.
The 23d of April, eight thousand Greeks,
sent by the Senate, appeared oti the surroun-
ding mountaitrs; they were commanded by
Constantine Botzaris. The 24th, Peter Mau-
ro-Michalis,fatherofthe young hero who died
some days before,arrived with three thousand
warriors fr. Lacouia,and placed himselfunder
the orders of Botzaris, as did several captains
who joined the army afterwards.
Ibrahim Pacha seeing the Greek troops re-
inforced, raised the seige, brit it was already
too late to think of retiring. The defiles were
occripied by the Helleniens, all the‘ passages
were in their hands. Thus the Turkish army
forind thetnselvcs without Modorr and Come,
encircled by 17 or 18,000 Greeks. Miatrlis
keeps the sea with twenty four vessels. He
landed at Nrrvarin a reinforcement of500 Isl-
anders from Ipsara and Spezzia.
The Colonel commanding at Zante wish-
ing to reconnoitre the respective positions of
the Greek and Turkislr armies,sent a corvette
tvlricli returned to night. The captaiti oftltis
vessel witnessed a combat in which the Turks
had a thousand nren killed, and many woun-
ded. The affair was not general ; tlte Greeks
did not cease to harrass the enemy, who were
for the tnost part surrounded and reduced to
a desperate defence.
The Greek cruisers have made several'ini-
portant captures. The campaign is the last
for the Turks. Greece will be free and iride-
pendent; its future glory is immense.
Froin Valparaiso.-—A letter from an officer
on board the frigate U. States, dated Valpa-
raiso, March 7, says the market there is in a
most deplorable state, there being no money
in the country. Twenty American vessels
were then in port with 50.000 barrels of flour
all making inostruinous voyages, as the flour
would not sell for enough to pay the freight ;
and to this maybe added the loss of$l0 duty
on each barrel, which has been paid in sortie
instances. .The country is poor indeed, and
there is no prospect of its being better until. a
government ofsome energy is established.-

Friends and Brotlrers,--Your talk to your
great father, the prcsiderrt ofthe U. States, of
the 7th tnorrth,lias been rec’d, EL read by him.
Btotlrers-—Your great father takes his Wy-
andot children by the hand. He thanks tlretrr
for their greeting of health and peace, and of-
fers yoti in return his best wishes for your
prosperity and happiness.
Brothers-—Your great father is very tnttch
pleased to hear of yotrr improvement, and es-
pecially that you are learning to reverence
the Great Spirit, and to read his word, and
obey its directions. Follow what that word
directs, and you will be a happy people.
Brothers-——Your great father takes a deep
interest, as you do yoirrselves,in the prosperity
of your cliiltlren. They will be certain to
grow. up in wisdom, ifyou continue to teach
them hotv to serve the Great Spirit, and con-
duct themselves well in this world. In all this
the word of the Great Spirit should be your
guide. You must teach them to love peace;
to_love one another ; to be sober ; you must
irrstrtrct tlrenr how to plough the ground, sotv
the seed, and reap the harvest: you tnust
teach them how to make irtrpleirrents oflir_rs-
bandry, and for all the mechanic arts : your
youngwoinen you must teach to spin, and
make yoirrclotlres,and to manage your house-
hold ; your yottng men to labor in the shops,
and iii the fields; and to bring lronre all that
youmay need for the support ofyour families.
Add to all this the fear and love ofthe Great
Spirit, and obedience’ to his word, and you
will be a happy people.
Br'others—Yo,ur great father is glad that
you ltave so good a man as the Rev, Mr. Fin-
ley among you. Listen to his words. Fol-
low his advice. He will instruct you in all
these things.
Brothers——Your great father will never use
force to drive you from your lands. What
Gov. Cass told yotr, your great father will see
shall be ttiade good. Tire strong fence which
he promised you at the treaty of Fort Meigs
should be put around your lands and never be
broken down, never shall be, by force or vio
letice. But your great father will not compel
you to remain where you are, if youthirrk it
better, at any time, to settle elsewhere.
Bro'.hers——On this part ofyour talk, your
Great Father directs me to send to you a
small book which Mr. Finley will read and
explain to you. You will see from it what
his views are on the subject of making the In-
dians a great and happy people. Brit he will
never force you into the measure, but will
leave it to your own discretion. As reasona-
ble children, he tlriuks you will see a great
deal of reason in this small book, and that
your best interests are connected with a com-
pliance with what it recomrnends. But" be
happy, and fear nothing from your great fa-

'1'_r/zizpahufrr of the Capitol.--A few niontlifir
since an advertisenietit ofthe government ap-
peared in the papers ‘offering a reward of 500
dollars for the best device or design for a bas-
so relicvo ornament ofthe Capitol, but at the
appointed time although there were a considi
erable ntttnber of hatrtlsonrc designs presented
by difi“et'crrt artists, none were t_h_o’t exactly
suitable,and consequently none were accept-
ed. The last Nat. Intelligericerhotvever in;
forms us that a design, projected by the Pres?
ident rfllrc United States, has been adopted;
and that a model ofit is in preparation, and
artists selected for the execution of the work,
“ The Tympanttm ofthe great Portico ofthe
Capitol being (say the editors) so conspicuous
a part ofthe edifice, and, witlrul, ofstich size
as to surpassin rtragniiude almost every other.

some solicitu_de that it should be ornarrrented
in a style worthy ofthe noble field it afforded
for the exertion oftasre and skill.”

Good nctcs.—-Tltc following paragraph is
extracted from the Trenton Federalist.
“ In giving our opinion last week upon the
affairs of the State Bank, we started ‘ that the
holders ofits notes scented to be left with but
very slight grounds oflropc that they would
ever be redcetried.’ One ofthe dircctors,wlto
is engaged itr irrvcstigatirrg the affairs of the
Bank, has called upon ussince, anti states tlra't
it is his opinion, that the Bank will ultiurutely
be able to redeem its notes.”

ed 8 days earlier than usual, will, according to
general expectation, be one ofthe most abho-
d.rirt we have had for a long period: and there

Iiiferestiitg E:rper2'men t.—Hydroplrobia ‘ has
lately appeared among the catriire race in va- ,
rious parts of England, anti several persons»
have_been bitten and died, as it is believed, in
consequence ofthe bite. Brit among the in-
dividuals bitten is a surgeon of Brighton, na-
rrred Brotvn, who has always contended that
the bite of a rabid urrirnal will not com-
municate hydrophobia in the way generally_
sttpposed, and he has refused to ‘adopt any of .
the precautions recommended in such cases. l
His wound, which was in the arm, has been5
permitted to heal, and the dog was corrfiiretf
until it died. During the dog’s confirit=me.n6
it drank no water, and ate but a little food.-~
After its death, Dr. Brown, together with 3
other surgeons, opened the dog,artd ex'amined-
it fully. The liver appeared healthy, but the‘
heart, lungs, stomach, intestities, and windpipe
were muclt itrflained, and sortie oftlie vessels-
were gorged with blood. There was‘ a tri-
fling increase of saliva in the mouth, and the’
lower orifice ofthe stomach had becotire so’
-tlrickened that air would not pass. Ur. Brown
concluded from the dissection, that strong ex“-
citentent from some cause had existed, and
that this excitement might have produced dis‘-
irrclinatiorr to taste, and inability 10 3“"‘”°“"
