ST. AUGUSTINE, March b.

 FROM THE SoUTH-The steamer Cincin- natl, Smith master, arrived this morning from Key Biscayne. She brings no intel ligence other than that signs of Indians are frequently seen around the posts. When the steamer was northward of Fort Lau- derdale, a qchite flag was discovered ashore waved by a small party of Indians The surf prevented all communication The annual humbug of this Indian war, in shape of flags and treaties" we do hope will not be revived; but that some active measures for operations throughout the country be promptly entered upon to bring the grace less outlaws to sense of duty. The posts south are isolated and feebly garrisoned, and utterly inadequate to the purposes of examination &c.-the enemy, therefore, can. with perfect impunity, approach the beach and rove where they please.
