The whole was ‘under the commend of Colonel Rector, to whom no little praise is due for th menaer in which he bas conducted his mission. You will remsmber that the Colonel went down into Florida, accompanied by « delegation of Wes- tera Seminoles and Creeks, in January last. The Seminoles’ with their chief, John Jumper, were under the charge of Colonel Ruiberford, ths agent; and the Creeks with the chief, Halleck-Tastonuggs, in charge of Colonel ‘They numbered forty-six warriors—two having they left Arkansas Billy Bowlegs’ party, or the hostile Indians, consisted of himself, as principa! chief; Assoonwah, second chief, Nokus Harjo, Ioepector General of th> Florida Indians; Nokose Emathleh and Foos Harjs, sub-ohiefs; Foos Hatch: er Ematbler, lieutenant; Ob-be-wab-lee and other warriors. Sokus Harjo w “what we read about” as to Indians—a fit subject for Cooper or Longfellow—tall, lithe, agile and straight. Standing 6 feet 7 inches in his moccasins, he is ndeed a neble specimen of the Indian race. He is a brother-in-law of Billy, but stands subservient, and in awe of him.
