We learn, fsrther, that Keobuck, the chief of the friendly Sacs, had given up his nephew, a young warrior, as beusj,' the mnrderer of a mnn by the name ol Wm. Martin, in Warren county, I'd. Gen. Scott, it is said, has determined lo chastise the Winnehagoes, for suffer ing their young men to engage in hostil ities against the whites, and affording protection and subsistence to the Sacs and Foxes. .Wo. Hep. CAUSE OF THE WAR. If w e are correctly informed, the hos tility of Black Hawk to the United State: had its origin in a treaty negotiated with him and his brother chiefs, for a cession of territory to the U. States in 1825.The commissioner en the part of jar go vernment, was anxious to have the line of purchase drawn from th head of lake Michigan dirtctly across to a given point on the Mississippi. To this Black Hank objected, alledging that the line proposed would include his own village. He at length consented to the sale and the newboundary, after many strong assurances that the line would leave his village thirty miles north of it. The line when run, passed two or three miles north o the favorite villaee of the Hawk. The chief and his tribe were dissatisfied, in sisting that in equity they ought not to lose their village, the Bite of which they had refused to sell. Meanwhile squat ters and border men began to locate on tha fertile tracts of land around the vil lage, and feuds soon sprang up between them and the wild men of the Indian lodges. Trespasses were committed retaliations followed difficulties incroae ed, until actual hostilities and murder led to the Indian war, which has cost the U States mnch treasure, with the lives 0 mac v vn'iiib!? citizens. CMto Atlas. Adams Pamic. Most of our citizens recollect the eccentric individual, who preached on the street some time ago, on a Sabbath Morning. He wore a long beard, and appeared zealous in the cause of religion. The old gentleman has finished his career. hen here, he was on his way to his family in Illinois. He was warned on approaching the Indian country, that he would probaLly be killed if he should attempt to pass through, but he presistcl. His body has been since found, the Indians having shot him, and then cut offhis head; the skin of which it is said they took off entire as a curiosity; his hair and heard being very long. He had sold his'property in Indiana, and had the money with him. The Indians took about $600 in silver, but left the notes in his pocket undisturbed. He had travelled much through the United States, and when here some 18 months ago, he excited great curiosity by prearhrr.g on horseback in the rain. He appeared offensive and was probably slightly deranged. His journcyings have al lutt brought him to the point, at which wc u.i u'.l ultimately arrive. Zantiiilk Gazelle, July IS.

We hope our brethren of the type, will join with us in guarding, the community against band of vagrants, who we learn, are go ing through every part ol the country. asking chanties upon lalse pretcuces as that their property has been utterly destroyed by earthquakes; by volcanic eruptions; oy ure, uy sworu, uy ormj . 1 1 1 1 ori land or sea; an n thmf thpv h:if .ai iv i 7 in large families, w hom they have left destitute and starvi'jg on another continent. The truth of such tale, is highly improbable; but, if true, they afford no just ground, lor a claim to charitable bestowment. - W hat should we think of the sanity or moral principles of an American, who would leave a starving family, and cross the Atlantic, to ask of the charitable of another hemisphere, the means of supporting such family? No inability to labor is alleged on the part of these pretcneed mendicants. 1 hey think it sulhcient, and but tooolten find it sufficient, to address American credulity and benevolence with the simple statement, that they have families to support and are destitute of property. If these vagrants are entitled to our kind regard, where should we find the means of supplying the wants of our industrious poor with -which the Euro pean continent is so thickly peopled.-. Uur attention has been called to this subject and its importance impressed upon us by a very intelligent gentleman, who has observed the extent and consequences of shewing favor to these Italian imposters, and knows the total ter want of merit. They are not even restrained by either national or person al pride of character, because they are o degraded as to be destitute entirely of cither. The law s against vagrants hould be strictly enforced against them wherever they are found. .Ycrywr.', Jlvgufi 20.

A considerable number of the outward hound vessels which have sailed lately took emitrrant who are returning to their home. We believe that many more would return, if they could find means. Generally speaking:, there but one opinion among the majority of emigrants, at least, while in Quebec and of which we here speak more partic larly: it is disappointment when they themselves ree the country. The disap pointmenl is greater than it would other wise be, because very exaggerated ideas have been fostered at home- With one accord, emigrants, of all trades, expect to find employment most abundant and wa get very high. In Qjiebec aixl Montreal, they often run a good chance of starving for want of employment, and find wheu they are employed that they earn less than they did at home. This is tbe real state of things, with respect to the towns of Lower Canada. Disguise it as you nay, that State of things must ultimately become kaewo. Que6 Caztite. Tbe number of emigrants that arrived at the port of Baltimore during the month ot June was 2129; and during the month f July 2171 ; making total of 4300 in two months. From the number of ves sels already arrived with emigrants do ring tbe present month, end those known to be on their way hither from different European ports, it is supposed that immi gration into this port in August will near ly eqoal that of the two preceding months. Baliimort Antncan. IfoRTBAMFTOv, Mass. August 15 Silk Worm. We had an opportunity lact week of seeing the curious operation of reeling thread from Cocoons of the silk worm. It is a delicate process, and seemt.to be the end and termination of al the labors of this industrious little magi cian. Th cocoons, when divested of the . . , . r ... which connects them together, are put in small quantities upon the surface of a kettle of hot water; this heated lieaid destroys the insect and loosens the thread upon the cocoaoa, to that it readily e epa rates and comes off 00 the reel. A smal bunch of sticks thrust dowa no the co coons, catches up a multitude of the little almost invisible threads, and passing vp through a little circular opening, they u nite in thus forming one thread, and are thus wound upon a revolving reel. A thread wheu caught op from tha cecoon is 10 condition and size as spun out by the insect, and after the reel Wegins to epe rate, the unravelling continues until the thread is wound off in one continued line down to the bidden insect, which is dives ted ofits covering aad is left naked and dead. We are surprised that the manu fact are of silk is not more general in the country ; it requires but little time, it is a neat and simple process and is well fitted for tbe profitable occupotioo of young fe males.- Courier, According to the returns submitted (0 Congrets at the last session of (hat body the number of citizen soldiers enrolled in the militia of the United States, is 1, 244,566. These returns are in many cases in complete. The real number i? probably not far from 1,350,000; or one to ten of the whole population. In ease of extreme necessity, a still greater number, by half a million, could be brought into the field. JVes) Orleans, August 7. A negro fel low on Sunday morning applied to a man on the levee in the upper fahouring, parish of Jefferson, to be carried in a boat some distance from the town, offering one hundred dollars for the service, nnd stating '.hat he was a runaway fiom up the coast and had plenty of money.

The width of the rirer al the place where the bridge is to cross is 1722 yards the shore on the eastern side rises gradually above the level of the river at high water; that on the western side is low and flat. The eastern chanuel is near the bank, and is 222 yard wide; the western channels is near the western bank, and is 450 yards wide; the distance between theee two channels is 105 yards, of which for a distance of 750 yards the depth of water at low water, does not exceed 31 2 feet, and for a distance of 300 yar-ds, the depth in what is called themiddle or blind channel, does not exceed 7 feet. The greatest depth of water in the eastern channel is about 9 feet, and in the western about 22 feet at low water. The greatest ri-e of tide may be about G feet. The shallow part of the river flows over a bottom ef mud and sand of various depths. The bottom of ihe western channel is gravel, and that of the eastern channel is mud and sand.
