Whenever and as soon as th-J officer shall mature hi plan of operations, and accomplish the duties aigaed o him, the forces from Louisiana will return to New Orleans." The ma.iacr in which the war with the S2miiivdc In lians has been conducted, and the injury which the country has sustained in consequence of the jeal ju-y which Gen. Gaines has exhibited towards Gen. Scott, are subjects
cf general convrrsatioa; and althoili we have ever eiitertained a high respect fr General Gaines and jvistlr appreciiled liis services, ys should be wanting in our duty a? public journalists if wo did not pointedly condemn his roaduct while at the head of ibe troops which have been so disgracefully kept at bay on the banks of the Outhl acoociiee by an enemy inferior in number and without any pictension to discipline. We will nat st p to inqe.ire into the mo
tives which induced Gen. Gaines to proceed into t ie In aan country, afier he had received official information at Tensacola that Gen. Scott had been selected to conduct the waragainst the S?minoIes, and lliat his services were required on the. Mexican frontier. Any person w.io will read t!ie extract from bis gen-i orals orders, must at once perceive, that while patriotism may have been one of the causes i"r such conduct, yet the moving principle of nctioa with him was a desire to deprive Gen. Sco'.l of any laurels whioh a suecess-f jJ issue to the caiYsnaign p.iight secure to him. We do
not sav, nor do we believe, that he intended to
render the campaign unsuccessful; but we hwc not a doubt that he wa determined to make an irT.it to put an end to the struggle by a forced march of his own, even at the hajiird of thereby frustrating for a time the plans of his superior officer. In this it is nowcertain he might hive now succeeded if he had acted with vigor; and if so, he probably would have been held excused by the public, who always look mare to the results of military m vements than to the objects with which they are undertaken a id the foresight and talent displayed in their execution. That Gen. G iin".s proceeded into the hcrt of the Indian country with nearly five hundred volunteers, and upwardsat ix hundred i e-

its proceeding. We do n t doubt the cour-
iga of General Qj'iw, 'that i as unquesionable ns arc his former Services to the ounlry; but never has it fallen to our lot inrc the days of H dU to record such disrepiitableruvja' at the very moment when an
pportu.aty ottered to accomphch the great bj;-ct of the expedition the total destruction of thrs foe. There is not there cannot e a doubt, tiiat if Giincf had continued to operate on the cjf'tisiv: instead of ingloriously relMng into a breastwork, Oseoln and his warriors would now have been tlFectuall put down, if not exterminated ; and that too. without his troops suffering ns much from hunger ns they did in their entrenchments. lad he beaten the enemy, as he says he did, and as he mast assuredly could and should lave do:.e, he would have been able to sup pi.)
ii command from their stores for they had an abundance, of stolen lirves with them, two of which Osenla offered him when he treated with and diclalrd terms to this conqueror! But enough of this disgraceful alfiir. General Quints wa fortunately rescued from this perilous situation by tlie timely arrival of Gen. Clinch; and rven then, instead of forcing his enemy to yield, he fled from hint with precipitation and published the account of his glorious camp-iin which has caused his brother ol-
licers to bluh for the conduct ot the nurd in rank in tlie army, and at the same time greatly perplexed the people at large; who cannot exactly understand why an enemy which has been "heal en and compelled to sue for peace,' should still bid defiance to the army under
Gen. Scjll.
Hut extraordinary as has been the conduct of Gen. Gaines in the field, the detail of that conduct was given by himself, is equally open t c n ure. At l'enacola, Gen. Guincs wa-
etliei.dlv annrized that Gen. Siott had been
selected to condui t this war; he subsequent!.)
met thai offi- er and saw his arrangements to accomplish what he had failed in; and yet he
n blished to the world not only that the cue
my had been "beaten and forced to sue for
peace," but speaks of his commanding Gener
al as "the officer charged with the diplomatic
at ramrcments ol the W ar Department. iow
if this means any thing, it means that Genera Scott was only sent to Florida in a civil capa city as a negociator, a minister Cxiraoidin
ary or Plenipotentiary, for the purpose of treating with King Oseola, while he (vieneral Gaines) was selected to do the fighting, had accomplished the object of his visit, paved the way for a gracious deception of Mr. S'tt the Diplomatist, and bravely born away the honor-! of a gallant and chivalrous achievement!

though the Indian enemy did not in fact mu-i-ter so large a body of warriors, yet at no time did the General himself estimate them at more than fifteen hundred! Admitting for a moment that they were fifteen hundred stiong;
has it evr happened in the history of our Indian wars has it ever entered the mind of the m sl ignorant to believe it possible that with this force, eleven hundred regulars and volunteers should have been held in check, beaten day after diy, and finally compelLd to act upon the defensive and starve within a Tbroastwork which they had reared for d fen siz-. inteaJ of ojfwhc warfare? The very conception of such contingency being within the scope of p-issibititu, would, but a few
weeks sim e, have been considered evidence
of gross ignorance if not partial derangement ; and yet such an evnt has occurred, and the people in astonishment look at each other an I ask in vain for aa explanation! They look
I m too, in vain far an explanation in the lelteis from the seat of war or in the order of the commanding General unless indeed they are to find such explanation in his boast that his command had 'met, beaten, and forced the enemy to sue for peace!" We would respectfully ask -are such the farts of the ca-e? Do not the official reports of Generals Scott and Clinch corroborated by all the letters written from the theatre of events, distinctly proclaim that the enemy has not beii beaten or forced to 6ue f r peace, but that he is now in force on the OulhlncoO'
