The Black chief for a long time after the peace was veiy silent as to the events of the war; nor did he boast of his share in them, until they had been disclosed by other warnors who had been eve witnesses of some of them. He at length became more communicative, and among others he told to this old chief on more than one occasion the particulars of TccumschV

WAIIIXG EXI'I.OIT. In June, 177ian expedition of the United States vessels was fitted out from Boston. It consisted of the Providence, thirty-two guns, Commodore Whipple, the Queen of France, tw entv-cight guns, Cant. J. P. Raihborn. and the sloop of war Ranger, Capt. Simpson. About the middle 1

J uly, near the hanks of Newfoundland, as the squadron lav in a fog, signal guns were heard, and at intervals the sound of

ships bells striking hours. From this they supposed themselves lobe near a fleet. A-

bout 1- o'clock, the fog began to clear oil".

when tne crew oi ihe Queen ot b ranee, 1 their great surprise, f. und themselves nearly alongside a merchant ship, and soon alter they perceived themselves in fleet of one hundred ami liliv sail, under the convoy of a seventv -four, and several frigates and sloops of war. The Queen of France immediately ho re down to ihe large ship, and hailed her. She answered that the fleet

was from Jamaica, bound to London. The blnglish ship then hailed the American, and was answered, 'his majesty's ship Mathusa, from Halifax, on a cruise.' The American then inquired if they had seen

any rebel privateers. The English replied ihat several had been driven out ofthe lieet.

The American Capt. Ratltburn (hen re

quested the Captain of the J:aigiisu vessel

to come on beard, winch he (no; when, to his great astonishment, he found himself a prisoner. Captain bin i hi urn then sent one of his own boats, and ihe English Captain's boat, both well manned to the ship, el which they took quiet possession, without exciting the least alarm in the fleet, notwithstanding many of the vesr-ob; were nearly within hail of the captured. Rnthhurn ihen went alongside of another large ship, and captured her in the same manner. S )on after ihe capture of the second ship, C mm d re Whipple came alongside, and ordered Cap.ain Rathburn to edge away out of ihe fleet, as soon as possible, as he was persuaded thev would be discovered and overpowered. Captain Rathburn pointed out the two large ships he had captured, and requested permission to remain.

The Commodore nt first disapproved of ibis project, but was at length prevailed upon by Caplain Rathburn to slay in the licet all dav, and capture as many vessels as they could, in ihe same cautious manner. As

soon as it was dark thev left tiie tleet, alter h iving captured eleven vessels, without giving alarm. The squadron arrived safe at B ston with eight of the prizes, three of

Indiana Internal Improvements. At a meeting of the citizens of Owens township, Clark county, Indiana, held on the 25th ultimo, the following resolutions were unanimously adopted. They breathe the right kind of spirit, and contain facts sufficient to startle every well-wisher to th 3 future prosperity of our State. Ilesoirttl, That there is great danger to the purity of our legislation, from the fact thai the internal improvement bill of Iti3r, and sustained by the last legislature, was the result of intrigue and management on the part of some of tr.e members, by bartering for votes, with roads and fuming

in roaos, canals and cross-cut canals, to accomplish their own private ends, without

regard to the necessities or capabilities of

the btate.

running to the same river or outlet, m tne

distance of 150 miles, is a ease ofthe most

impiovidcnt legislation of which we have

anv recoru.

Resolved, That it is the deliberate opin

ion of this meeting, that the present inter

valuation, so that a common farmer with

200 acres of land, will have to pay about

one hundred dohars taxes every year, as

much as his land would rent lor alter Iceej

Resolved, That the present system of

roads and canals, (a great many being

spread over a small surface,) will not pit

next twenty years, to keep itself in repair;

Chairman of the committee to whom this legacy was referred in Congress some time since, offered a resolution in relation to this bequest and the letler in question, results from ihe inquiry. The letter is dated Sept. 21th.
