kading squadron. We make the following extract: A party of gentlemen, consisting of Dr. D., Mr. K., and Mr. G., of Issaquah county, Mississippi, and Dr. R., of Terrebonne, with a pilot and two negro servants, left for Caillon Island on the 13th inst., partly for pleasure, but principally in search of health.--After spending a few days at "Campment Mulatre," luxuriating on the choice fish abounding on the seacoast, and shooting duck, ship, plover, etc., we proceeded to the island on the 15th. Arriving there, we hastily unloaded our craft, and carried our baggage to the vacant houses, intending to select one for our use during our stay. When within fifty yards of Mr. Henry Collins's house we discovered on the beach, some hundred yards distant, a party of armed men, twenty-five in number, approaching us, in much confusion, with a white flag fastened to a bayonet. Seeing there was no possibility of escape, we concluded it best to put on a bold face and meet them fearlessly.
