S " A UVII , Dear Sir?The news from Tampa, since ' my last, is, upon the whole, favorable.? 1 230 of the hosliles have been emigrated 1 within the past month, among them Cosa- f tus-te-nuggee, the scoundrel, whose tie* > predations during the past winter in the t neighborhood of Micanopy, cast a gloom ' over the whole country. This man's re* ? moval isjustly looked upon as an act of i great importance, and its influence upon ? the continuance of hostilities on the part s of the Indians, will be felt. Hitherto he e lias resisted every effort to bring him to t terms, and not until the Arkansas Dele- f gation had an interview with him, did he 1 feel inclined to hold any intercourse with t the whites; now he is on his winding way f " ' to Arkansas, whither most of his band t have preceded him. < Alluck-tns-tc-nuggcp, the gentleman so handsomely whipped by the gallant Albur* i lis last winter, has, in view of that drub- I bing, concluded to emigrate. A delega- 1 tion "from his Majesty, has reached the < General, and announced that he will soon 1 " be in at Tampa to treat. Coacoochee, I (Wild Cat) has been at Fort Pierce with i - twenty-four of his band. They obtained < provisions and promised to go in soon ai Tampa. Col Worth has left for the Carloosnhat- i - chie with one hundred picked men. His , object is to secure Hnspatakice and I trust i the gallant Col. will meet with the success so much wished for. You may peihaps, remember that the express rider between Fort Clinch and Tampa was killed a few j weeks ago. It has since been ascertained j that this murder was committed by three j of Cosa-tus-te-nuggee's band, who had re- i fused to go in with their chief. As soon ( as information of this outrage reached ( Tampa, Capt. Bcal, with a party of Dra- i ; goons, started in pursuit; guided by a ne- , gro. They overtook, killed, scalped and hung tip the headman of the party. Upon , Capt. Bealls' return to Tampa the friendly 'Indians congratulated him upon his sue- , cess. The delegation were pleased, as it proved to the Indians the truth of their "?assertion, viz: "that every Indian who < should refuse to accede to the General's , terms, would if caught, be hung." It is - said that the transaction had a very happy , <? effect, for as fortune would have it. the , Indian killed had been very active in his , efforts to break up the emigrating party. , I am sorry lo inform you lhat many of ( the troops in the Territory are now suffer- ( ing severely from illness. The 1st Infantry has been removed to Cedar Keys for their health 250 of their number are now sick with fever. 100 of the 7th at Micanopy are also sick with fever. 70 of the 2d are sick in Hospital at Fort King, also with fever. Forts Russell and Holmes continue very healthy. In haste. Correspondence of the Savannah Georgian. P1LATKA, MAY 19, 1841. Dear Sir?The report has reached here lhat the Indians are breaking far high * timber, and again are opening'on the Georgia line. On the 14th inst. a party of fifteen Indians killed two citizens on Brandy branch, a fork of the St. Marys river, about 12 milesfrom Fort Moniac; ' -,'v/ the report reached here via Black Creek. Another report, via Traders Hill, says, a party of Indians on the Sooth prong of the St. Marys, killed on the same date, (14th inst.) a man (citizen) and his child. Notwithstanding all this, there are folks about these parts, presist in saying the war is over. Yours truly. "We learn from Capt. M'Nulty, of the United Slates steamer Newbern, that the two men killed bv Indians on the I4tlt inst., 011 Brandy branch, about twenty miles from Clack Creek, are named William Barber and Daniel Greer.

The Bank Question.?Tlio scire facias issued igainst the Banks has been argued for several days Ixjfore Judge Butler in Charleston, and the discus* J sion concluded on Monday last. Judge Butler will Lake time to decide tho question submitted to him.? In whatever way it may be decided by him, however, ,t is said that it will, in all likelihood, be carried up :o the Law Court of Appeals, or perhaps to the "ourt of Errors. THE BANK OF THE UNITED STATES. A second report from the Committee of Stockhol. lers appointed sometime since to investigate the af "airs of this institution has just made its appearance, ind contains matter sufficient to employ Mr. Biddle or a montli or two to come, in the concoction of mother series of letters to the Hon. John M. Clat on, in ordor to restore him to his wonted eminence, nd place his management of the great regulator in ,ny thing like an honest light. There is one fact disclosed in this report, which of tself alone, is sufficient to account, to some extont, or the loose, miserable and slovenly manner, to give t no worse an appellation, in which the business of lie institution has been conducted. The board of directors consists of twenty members, and among he whole number elected in January last, there were nvned but one hundred and fifty four shares of the tock of tho Bank?less than eight shares to each ndividual member. Now, it is well known that the lutles of a bank director, even in a small institution, ire of a responsible character, and requires consider, ible attention, besides trespassing occasionally, largcy upon his time. In such a concern as the Bank of he United States, with a capital of thirty five miU ions of dollars, how much more arduous and responsible must these duties be? And how much more of he time of a man of business must his attention to hese duties occupy? And can it be supposed, for i moment, in this money loving age, that men can be onnd, having so small a pecuniary interest in the nstitution as these mon had, who would be as watchul and attentivo to its affairs as if half a million or noro of its stock had been owned among them? As i genoral rule, a bank to be well and safely managed, Is directors should bo large stockholders; at all tvents, if not large stockholders, their avocations diould be such as to rendor it likely that they them icivos wouiu noi w mrgc uurruwuo. i* u uana ?;.m i >o safely managed for the community and its stockloldcrs, where all the interest which the Directors iave in the concern, is the facility which their situaion may afford them in procuring accommodations or themselves or their friends- and this seems to be lie position ofthoBankof the United States. Can )ur readers wonder at the result of its operations? And what adds tenfold to tho disgrace of Mr. Biodle, so far as this extraordinary organization of the joard of Directors is concerned, is that he was chief, y instrumental in their election, and at the moment ivas the owner of but one share himself. No doubt lie had his object in view, but what it was is best known to himself?it was not, unquestionably, the interest of the bank which ho consulted in the choice which he made. As the former report was published in the Journal, we will endeavor to find room for this also, but in ihis we may be disappointed, as we shall probably soon do occupied wun me proceedings 01 mc extra. session. LATER FROM EUROPE. Dales from Liverpool sixteen days later than thoso irevioualy received, have reached us since our last jublication. The Steam Ship Caledonia, which eft Liverpool on the 4th ultimo, arrived at Boston on he 19th. The news by this arrival is not of very great importance, so far as its political character is concerned. The great question which is agitated at this moment is the abolition of the corn laws. A most powerful effort will be made to effect this, and with perhaps a better prospect of success, than on my previous occasion. The cotton market, contrary to all expectation, was dull, and prices had declined from an l-8d to I-4d per pound, though the money market was easy. The Caledonia brings no news of the President Steamer, which left N. York on the 11th of March, and was out fifty-fivc days when the C. Iclt Liverpool. That she is lost, with all her crew and passengers, scarcely a doubt can be entertained; but the circumstances of her loss will be matter of anxious solicitude and curiosity for months to come, She had ?n board twenty eight passengers, and a crew of eighty one persons?in all, one hundred and nine souls. Trie Extra Session??ho correspondent of the Charleston Courier, under date of the 28th ult. says: ' It is now universally believed that the Presidrnt will abstain from recommending a National Bank in his message, but that he will propose some measure for tho immediato relief of the Treasury and of the n Tk. nni? ndda that the issue of ex. ? chequer bills by the government, to servo as a uni. form currency, has been favorably spoken of. In what will they differ materially from Treasury notes ?

Sh :preck and loss of Life.?The Quebec Mercu. ry, of the 22d uil. gives an accaunt of the loss of the brig Minstrel, Capt. Outerdbidoe, from Limerick, Ireland, bound for that port. She was lost on Red Island reef, and only eight persons, out of one hundred aud fifty-six souls on board were saved, to tell the melancholy fate of the remainder. Of the members of Congress from North Carolina, eight are whigs, and five democrats. Noither Mississippi or Illinois will be represented in the extra session of Congress.

The capital of the Bank was only one hundred and seventy five thousand dollars. [From the South Carolinian.] Columbia, May 21, 1841. We, to..whom tvas referred the correspondence between Messrs. James Canty and H. J. Pride, have examined the same, and aie of opinion that there is nothing to prevent an amicable adjustment, entirely honorable to both parfiesr The present position of the parties appears to us to have been occasioned by mutual misunderstandings, not only before but during the correspondence. fPL i*/r I. t .1 ^ JL? i ne (Jiuicuiiy netween incse geuuejurn peeins to be, that Mr. Pridp. has said that lie employed certain language to Mr. Canty, previously to ail explanation which .Mr. Canty made him; while Mr. Canty declares that such language was never used to him. and that he should have considered it offensive, and as not leaving him at liberty to make an explanation, until withdrawn. In consequence, however, of the lapse of time since the explanation referred to, and as Mr. Pride had disclaimed having ever intentionally used disparaging language towards Mr. Canty, it is reasonable to suppose that Mr. Pride would not precisely recollect words which he did not consider or intend as offensive to Mr. Canty, and that language which Mr. Canty did not construe as offensive, might have passed unnoticed or been forgotton by him. But as Mr. Pride has been requested by Mr. Canty to withdraw the language in question, if used, wc are of opinion that it would be in accordance with the candor and high feeling which characterize both gentlemen, that he should do so; and we accordingly so recommend; and that thereupon the parties be restored to their former amicable relations.
