BATTLE.

letter front New-Orleans, dated March 2, .;ivcs a report there, that Gen. lackson had met the Seminole Indians, and r i sanguinary conflict entirely ieati yed them, wlthonl the loss Of 90 Bien killed On his part, and a number Grounded. The post ti ler from Nachei ttat i I at in the Chickasaw nation he he ird i simil ir re part from the Indians, who ;u eel the wounded at 200. Letters from the armv state the gen

eral tohafebeen at Horttbrd, Georgia, on the l4Ui of February, and about the same ti nethe principal Indian force was in the neighborhood of the bay of Appaiaehh ol u making a distance of about 800 miles, which renders the report of a battle in time to have been received here barely possible and hot very probable. At the date of the ebovc letters only a part i 1 I te Georgia drafts bad joined the HiSin army-and the road taken by the main p irt'of the Tennessee Volunteers make a junction improbably until tney all t aeh Fort Scott Mash. Clarion. A letter front Mew-Orleans, dated January 38th states that the 9eminolea and Creek Indians inhabiting the protaontovy of East Florida, against whom our forces are marching, are 4000 warriors strong ; that they have destroyed ah th( ir towns placedheir women, ciiii-dren-stock and pi visions in a fortified tamp, situated in th mfclst of an immense and d nost impassable masah " This account leads us to expect a proiracted war in that quarter. Xat. Intel. The POPE. The French Coronation, It must be a matter of surprise to the nations of Eurou . that the coronation of the King of France has not yet taken p ice The cause remains to be explained. The circumstanc e is accounted for in various ways Report, however, seems confirme 1, that the Pope tefused to crown Louis Will Kin-- of France, as Long as Bonap trta lives We know that the Pope did refuse and that t was talked if off rin$ the country of Atington to purchase lus compliance As it rests with frant e, and we heat no more of the Kings conation, We suppose that nothing can be done with the Popg to induce his holiness to perform the ceremony. Extract of a letter fi oi i I gentleman high in o Vice at Mew Orl ai to a gentleman in the city of Baltimore, dated Jan. 23 We have nothing new here, exrept thai we shad havi a very Intel and sanguinary war with the Seminole Sc Crci k Indians, inhibiting the promentory of Eas Florida. They ere 4000 warriors tretlg ; have destroyed 111 their towns, pLuvd thvir women ehtldten, stock and provisions in a fortified temp, situated ii th midst of an immense and almost i npassahle'm uV. T ev have had BOme success in late skirmishes, in cutting off Our foraging p irties , t ey are very sanguine of success, and determined not to yiold. Our army is in an alarming sku at ion for want of provisions, which is extremely difficult to convey to them. the Indians have command of the water courses, and obstruct the passage of Mqrsportby shooting the men oft the decks, without any exposure n their pvt from the banks being high and covered With brush. The naval force can be of no service ;thc soldiers must therefort it out. We are all wellj tho the wi ithef has been dreadful for a month past ; extremely cold; ice tno Inches thick, ard snow on the ground 1 dav. U has been colder this winter than was ever known here Before For Bala at this Office, Blank Indentures, &c 6-e. do. Administration letters, n a Variety of utlivr BLANKS.
