SAVANN VH, Geo ) July 21. Notwithstanding tiie brilliant success of Gen. J-( kson, in the route of the Indian and the occupancy of St.. Marks Sc Pepsaeola our opinion remains unchanged, that so long as the provinces qfE. and W- Florida remain under the dominion ofthfe Spainards, our frontier will be exposed to Indian incursions. It appears by a letter from mai gen. Floyd to the executive ofGeCrgia, Under date the 24 h June, that about four weeks ago a party of settlers on the Spanish side of the St. Mary's river, joined by t few of the rcnegadoes from G ?orgia set out under the command of a rnrm of the name of 'anZunry a Spanish subject tor the purpose of plundering cattle. ! his nartv, con sis tuagof about 2U persons, had succeeded in collecting about 15 head of cattle c had driven tuem wit! an two daVs march ofSt. Mary's river, when, at night seat I ' e i round their camp Bre they were atacked by a number of Indians, who killed ti of the whites amongst the number
van !aut. Two or three of the party A li tie fiomthe lire looking for their hor-ssy-cw1 without joining in the acti Hi) an I L.e straglers came i i separateb".? few days afterwards. This affair, thus1 prpet'cated principally by Spanish f.u!);e; ts Will evil do n the vengeance of '..c Indians on our unprotected women
be infested by the savages. A large bodv of Indians since, we understand, have waited on gov. Coppingef and declared their intention to break up ail the settlements north of St. rohns The goernor.it seems understanding Gen. Jack -Ban's way of doing business has made some fine pacifi : speeches to the Indians and recommended them to refrain from hostilities against the Georgians so say the governor's friends for 'aim and has refused all aid ft all muni ions of war to the Indians. Whytrufy ;ov. Coppinger and m friends must suppose the people of Georgia and the officers of the U.S. very credulous to place reliance upon these deceitful appearances for while gov Ccppinger la publicly refusing aid to the Indians thepeOpMe of St. Augus t'me are fitrnisMng them with powder blankets and lead I This we are assured of by a Brentlcman of respcctabilitv and truth While gov.
