Removal of the Choctaws. - We learn, by a gentleman from Hempstead county, that the Choctaw Indians have commenced emigrating from the country which they have recently ceded east of the Mississippi, to their lands on our western frontier. Several hundred have already come over, and arrangements are making for immediately putting a missionary school into operation in their new country. A considerable portion of the nation may be expected over in the course of the ensuing spring, and the removal of the obstructions in the navigation of Red River, occasioned by the raft (which work is progressing very favorably) will facilitate their emigration, and greatly reduce the expense to the Government of removing them to their new homes. - Arkansas Gazette.
