Morning Herald

Indians Wear Horn.—We have received the following letter from our obliging correspondent, the editor of the Brunswick Advocate:—

Brunswick, Tuesday Morning.

Dear Sir,—I have just learned, from an authentic source, of the murder of two families in Ware county, by the Indians. Mr. Wilde and family were murdered on the 17th instant, and Mr. John Davis and family on the 24th, not more than twenty or twenty-five miles from Waynesville.

Mr. Davis is, I believe, well known, having formerly been a member of the Legislature.

These murders were perpetrated by five Indians, whose trail was followed by the neighbors into the Okefenokee Swamp, where they found the trails so large, and indicating the vicinity of so many Indians, that they were obliged to return. They estimate that there are as many as four or five hundred in the swamp. Great excitement prevails in Ware and Camden on the subject of these murders, and from Waynesville an express has been despatched to obtain particular information; and a meeting of the citizens is to be held tomorrow, to take such measures as the urgency of the case may require.

I write this in the greatest haste, thinking it may possibly, in the absence of more particular and recent intelligence than has been received here, be of service to you. Yours, &c.

J. LYMAN.
