It hcthouglit matter of much real importance ai ti who or did not, erect the first T^re-ttaute, but as Tter^fHautelafid i&elrlya»iAtoiir- are no intimately associated with my own that I can never hear^ either ajluded to without tha fiveiUst Ihtewftt—and then, asf&riirolK'aP^ th^I^vilbge oft som^h^ dg^^g ^pns years since has developed into the propor tions df a large commercial ind manufacturing city—nothing connected with its origin can fail to interest its especially those few, like myself, have knoWiil it fo/haif icentury.

I know not who the "old residenter" may be who furnished the Journal?s information on the subject but he caiihot sfieak from his own personal experience. With your permission, I will state a few incidents connected with my own advent to Terre-Haute, having, as you will^bserte, some connection with the question. On the 6th day of June, 1&17, in company with John W. Osborn, the father-in-law of Judge Gookins, I arrived,af Y/^c$p\iea, after? a jbuniey ofln^ly" two monfhs, from St. Lawrence county, New York. Osborn, being a printer, readily obtained employment in Elihu Stout's printingoffice in Vincennes but, after spending three weeks vainly seekin^or something to do, determined to seek my fortune higher uiTifie Wabash Valley, and set out on foot for the *newly laid out town of Terre-Haute.

In Vincennes I met and formed a slight acquaintance with John Brittqn, who had

been at

temporary home at the house of David Barnes—a small log cabin situated on section 16, on the edge of the prairie, noi far from the present cemetery. Having to walk the whole distance from Vincennes and carry my bundle, I made slow progress, and was nearly three days upon the journey. I found my new friend Britton as I expected, and warf kindly .and hospitably recced byThim arid $he familyy but as 'the caibiri* was smkll and found the family were not in a condition to receive an additional boarder, I determined to make my stay as brief as possible, had introductory letters from Vincennes to Major Chunn and his officers at Fort Harrison, and to Major Markle at Otter Creek, which, I determined'to lose time in delivering. The second day after my arrival I visited the 'Fort and found the officers in their quarters. Nothing could exceed the kindness and hospitality with which they received me. The Major insisted upon my making my home at the Fort until I found some^ kind of employment."' Situated as I was, I most gratefully accepted his hospitality, and removed my scanty baggage to the Fort,

In a 'day or two'I set out in the early summer mining, to cross the prairie t# deliver my'letters to Major1 Markle. .1 missed the track and went to Otter Creek bridge. I was conscious of my error, but the beauty of the morning lead me on until I found myself standing on an eminence in the lnidst ofOfer Creek Prairie.'

home or civilization,* presentedr themselves to view, but all was one boundless, magnificent bed oljb^au^iifuljy variagated flowers.

I stood and gsuKjl-ju^l my reason-fail ed, and when about to retrace my steps, my eye caught lh,e glimpse of?a(slight column of smolce, winding up among tjic trees in a distant corner of the prairie. I made my way to it and found a family in a small log cabin, which they had as yet, occupied too short a time to have made any improvements j^popd ithei?.,' then obtained directions Which enabled me, without further ^difficulty, to finfl the Otter Creek 'mill^i. |i The l&jo| #as Jat home, ahd received ttie with that frank, graceful, cordial hospitality, fqr which he Was so widely celebrated.

Congregational Church will meet with Mrs. Dr. Thompson, corner of Sixth and Mulberry Streets, this evening.

Like Saul, among ,the children of Israel, he stood "a head and shoulders above them all." I, of course, dined with him, and that brief visit was the commencementof at warm friendship that continued during'the remainder of his life.

But the inquiry may fairly be made, what has all this to do with the question as to the "builder of the first tavern in Terre Haute." It has this to.do^with it. Had there been a tavern in Terre Haute on my arrival there in June, 1817, I should very naturally have availed myself of it on my first arrival, rather than accept—under the circumstances the hospitality of my .frifind BriUon, and thefamily of David Barnes.

RAKING POWDEB,

I S li

The truth is—and there is no incident connected wjj-h my first visit to Terre Haute—more distinctly remembered, than that on my Arrival, the latter part Of June, 1817, there was neither tavern or bording house there. Henry Bedford had just erected the building, partly of hewed logs and partly frame, on the oorner of Wabash and cither Front or Water street, the name not distinctly remembered the same afterwards kept by Mr. Robert Harrison, and still later, by Our old friend, Captain James Wasson, undefr the somewhat singular cognomon of "Eagle and Lion" which was illustrated upon his sign by a patriotic picture representing the American Eagle perched upon the back of the British Lion, evidently placing ih jeopardy the Royal animal's eye! Rut I .will venture the assertion that however grotesque the sign, or however difficult at that early period to obtain supplies, that there has been no public house in Terre Haute Irom that to the present day, where a wevy tnjv^ller could be placed njor® $£ his saso, where he could qtyalty fetter dinner or supper, better bed or ifre^kfiptj pf wjigre Je
