Westward, Ho-From Fort Mitchell, on Saturday last, the contractors for the removal of the Creeks, had the pleasure of starting 1600 Indians, men, women and children, for Arkansas. The hostile warriors, hand cuffed, marching in double file. A long train of wagons conveying the children, and such of the old women as were unable to walk, followed in their wake. Their departure for the west presented a scene on one side, pleasing and gratifying, on the other solemn and sad, Necessity, the dictates of humanity and the preservation of their future national existence, have all conspired to force from them a long and last farewell to the homes of their youth Surrounded by a white population, broken up in their nationality-wretched and every way undone, this miserable remnant of a once powerful people, have at last yielded to the force of circumstances, and with a bitter curse upon the heads of their enemy, they have left us for what we hope, a better country and a happier condition.

On the march, the contractors will gather a considerable reinforcement from Echo Harjo's camp, near Tuskegee. At that place, they will find Neha Micco, Charnalce. and Jim Henry. The latter has been refused to be given up to the executive of Georgia, on the score of his being a citizen of Alabama, and consequently, that he must be tried first by the laws of that State.-Columbus Sentinel.
