LYDIAX talk.
At a Council of the Chief?, Head iMen a i l Warrior of the Creek Nation, con
veued by authority, the Talk of the Pre-
ei-lent was communicated oy me Agent. After a profound silence of many minutes duration, Speckled Snake, a Warrior
whose head was whitened by the frosts of
more than a hundred winter?, and who
supported himself on the shoulders of
the young men, arose, and epcke as fol-

gays he loves hia red children. Brothers! I haye listened to many Tdlki from our Great Father. When be tirst came over lhewide waters, he was but a little man, and wore a red coat. Oir chiefe met him on ibe bank of the river Savannah, and smoked with him the pipe of peace. He was then vry little. His legs were cramped by sitting long in bis big boat, and he begged for a little Tand to liht his fire on. Hi saif he had come over the wide waters to teach the Indians new thing?, and to make thcrn bappy. He said he loved his red brothers; he was very kind. The Muscogees gave the white man land, and kindled him a fire, that be
might warm himself; and when his ene
tniep, the pnle faces of the South, made
war on him, their youag men drew their
tomahawks and protected his head from the scalping knife. But when the white
man had warmed himself before the In
dian'a fire, and filled himself with their
hominv. he became very large. With
a step he bestrode the mountains, and
his feet covered the ulains and the val-
lies. His hands grasped the eastern and
trie western sea, ana Dis ntHu rested on
the moon. Then he became our Great Falhe. He loved, his red children, and he said "Get a little farther, lesl I (read
on thee." With one foot he pushed
the red man over the Oconee, and with the other he trampled down the graves
or-his faftr, and the forest9 where ht;
naa so long minted tne aeer. Due our
Great Father still loved his red children
and he soon made to them another
Talk. He said "Get a little further; jou.aj-e too near -me." But there were some bad men among the Muscogeee, then, a9 there are now. They lingered around the graves of fheir ancestors, till they were crushed beneath the heavy tread of our Grent Father. Their teeth pierced hia feef, and made him angry. Yo.t he continued to love his red chil dreii; and when he found them too slow in mgvinghe sent his great guns before him to sweep his pah. Brothers! I have listened to a great rnaoy Talks from our Great Father. But they always began and ended in this "Qet a little further you are
xoo near me." Brothers! Our Great Father says "where we now aioi our brothers have always claimed the land." He speaks with a straight tongue and cannot lie. But when he first came over the wide waters while he was yet small, and stood before the great chief Council on Yamacraw BluffVhe said "Give me a little

A part of the flat roof of Mr. Simp

At the bottom of Pearl-st. two boys
amused themselves by swimming in the dirty water, and a man rowed him3elf about on a plank. The top of the cess
pool floated off and a number ol persons
fell in.
A detachment of the fire department
was on duty, and fc.ngine6 were, tor a

We understand the meeting-house of
the Rev. Mr. Whitman, at Waltham, was set on fire and consumed. During the most violent part of the storm, between 2 and 4 o'clock, the barometer was remarkably agitated. Between 7 and 8 o'clock in the evening, the storm re-commenced, but was a little less violent. We fear we shall have bad news respecting the
Bridges and Dams in the country. A violent hail storm was experienced at Newton village. Mure than half the glass, on northern exposures, was broken. Some of the hail stones are supposed to have weighed a pound. One
measured 4 1-8 inches in length. Slate
n the roofs of buildings were broken.
After the storm more than 12 pounds of
ice were collected on a square of ten
feet which is at the rate of 4800 to the mm a
acre. Dluch damage must have been
done in the gardens and fields.

The Telegraph is also iuformed by a gentleman from Fort Mitchell, that it
was true the Creeks had held a secret council for the purpose it was believed of remonstrating with the General Government, and entering a protect against being forcibly removed; that owing to various unfounded rumours respecting the hostility of the Indians, a good deal of excitement had been fidt on tne frontier,and particularly at Columbus; hut that all apprehensions on the subject were fist subsiding. The prospects of an Indian War depends upon a. remote contingency, which he thinks can never happen. It was not probable that any alliance or concert would be formed by the Creeks with other Indian tribes, owing to their mutual animosity and hostility townris each other.
The Columbus Enquirer of the C5th
ult. received since the above was prepared for the pres-, also states that the
excitement created by the report of hostile intentions among the Indian?, had pretty much subsided; th;i many of the head men of the nation had visited Columbus for the purpose of inquiring into the cause of the alarm: all of whom con
curred in denouncing the report as false, and totally uufounded. But the Enquirer censures Col. Crowell, a:d insinuates that the "matter was oidy a hoax resorted to"' by him, from sinister motives. And further states, that, in consequence of the representations which he had made to the War-Department, the President had ordered a thousand stand of arms to be forwarded to Fort Mitchell for the us of the frontiers; that
a company of 30 or 40 regulars hud raP-
sed through Columbus ou their way to

SPECIE.- A Mr. Hand died a short time since at a great age, in Stephentown, in this county. He possessed a good farm, had always been known as a careful, saving man, and was supposed to have left at his death a snug little, estate. He left a Will, however, and upon opening that, it was discovered that hi-, farm was but a small item of his proper1 I V 1 I V V

for a great many years, there was one room which he had never permitted any body to enter, but himself; it was on the ground floor, and in his Will he gave directions to go into that room, open a trap door, and there under, in small tubs and kegs, and other vessels, would be found a treasure of specie. The investigation being made, the money was indeed, found, to the amount of about 40,000, in dollars, half dollars, quarters, crowns, &c. There was another clause in the Will which stated that in one of the vessels mentioned, was a phial containing a written scroll giving informal ioty where
another and still larger deposit of specie had been made; bat alas! the treacherous ink had disappeared, deserted its post, or rather abandoned its linesy and the paper told not a word of the precious secret with which it had been charged.

Yet where are the red children which he loves, once as numerous as the leaves of the forest? How many have been murdsred by his warriors? How many have been crushed beneath his own footsteps?

We have perused, with painful inter
est, and, certainly, without prejudice, the report of the trial of Wickhti'e, for
killing Denniner. We have risen from
that perusal with feelings which we cannot trust ourselves to'expres. We conscientiously consider the killing of Denni.ig as a most atrocious, malicious, and
cowardly ji a o Ji 1 1 UJ . Jtu t we bow, with reverence, to that law which protects not ojdy YVickliffs, but every other citizen. Wickliffr has been legally acquitted. But though we are bound
to respect the laws, whose agis has been thrown before him, yet we are at liberty to say there must be a gross defect in the law, or in the administration of the law of Kentucky, which hold thisbleody deed guiltless: and we are at liberty to say, that those editors who have declared the killing of Banning to be "a clear case of justifiable homicide" have whetted the knife for the throats of the innocent, and put it into the hand of the murderer, with an assurance of acquittal. More;
no man we presume, justifies the act of
Wicklilic, who is not himself prepared to act in the same manner. Such men are more fortunate, but not less guilty than he who shed the blood of Beuning. We thank God that, in our part o( the Union, murder is not countenanced, by the laws, by those who administer them, nor by popular opinion. The people do not, as in Kentucky, wear concealed arms, and in that manner, familiarize the idea of murder to their minds. If a man of this community, should enter the house of another man with hostile intent, armed with deadly weapons, and in a state of high excitement, abuse and insult that man; provoke him by menace and insult, to raise a email stick in his
defence; and, then, put him to death,

The British fleet had sailed for Navarino, and the Greek blockade was to be raised forthwith.

are assembling a large force near Aido3, and turn their chief attention te Sizeboli. The Turks have failed in a recent attempt to enter Little Wallachia, near Kaiafat; they were driven hack with much loss. The siege of Silistria had
