A dearth of interesting news prevails—no arrivals from Europe since our last; and as for the continental papers, even their localities impart lethargics, except those mentioned by our Constant Reader, upon electioneering; and a few Pennsylvanians, upon the "extraordinary conduct" of a certain body of statesmen, who do now, and it is hoped still will, honor this city with their august presence. These are sufficiently seasoned with the satirical, pergverical, sophistical, bombastical, &c.
His Honor the Governor of Georgia has issued another proclamation, commanding that all hostilities on the part of that state do cease against the Creek Indians, and forbidding all persons to interrupt or otherwise injure them on their way to, attending on, and returning from the treaty to be holden with them this September, &c.
