The party of friendly Indians, despatched by the Governor a week or two since, to scout the country lying between the Oeklockonee and Apalachicola rivers, have returned without discovering any Indian signs. Their route extended along the Oeklockonee to the Sea shore, and across the country to Fort Gadsden, completing a circle of that part of the Territory; and could not have failed of falling upon the trail if any Indians frequented that section. We learn, however, that a few days since, the camp of a party ol hostile Creeks, supposed to number 60 or 70, was fallen, in with, near the Chipola swamp on the west stdo of the Apalachicola. The Indians lied, and the want of provisions and a sufficient force prevented a further pursuit. The Governor is organi-z ng a force sufficient to capture them it they can again be found, who will march in a day or two. —TaUahtis8ec Floridian, Oct, 28.
