Jackson at the south; hut brave, watchful, cun-

oing. and malicious; and commanded by a chief

caroK inferior to Tccnmseh by nature, and

rnuchMiis -irjj.frior by education.

The greater number of all these Indian, not with-t-W.ing their peaceable deportment liith rto, entertain the most deadly and implacable hatred to the people of the United States. All the energy which a deep-felt regard for origin al rieht can in-pire, calls up their savage ven

eeance All the force which can atise from a

eens- f-f their indubitable rights as the free and ogirial lord of the soil, stimulates to slaughter.. And all the argument that can be derived from a supposed violation of the most solemn trea ties, absolutely existing be'ween the Southern fndnns and our government, "stiis the hel: within hem " Whilst the indefensible conduct of fome of our frontier citizens, their continue xetward retreat, and perhaps the impo-soned dvir.f British agents, fisteis a spirit resol

d on death, or the utter extermination of our

careful habitations. Add to all this. Black

Hak i ur and doi- g an enterprising strong

minded Indian. His invincible firmness, his

Thvsical and moral force, and his warlike a

chievments. will invigorate despondency, and if

sisted as Tecnmseh evidently was, by tfritish

advice-and treasure, and posses any thing like tae same activity, he will touch every hostitle

cord in 400.000 bosoms; and thousands ot sav

atre monsters will pervade our frontier, burn

nr hoiPJ. destrov our lives, and sacrifice our

Droicrty. That such as-istance will be given

v be British government, none '-an easily sup

pose. But that agents of British manufacturing

companies will come hither, to destroy Dy any and every means the invested manufacturing

capital f the coontiy, has been boldly assert d. and may be proven to a demonstration. Therf vhould be no sooh promoters of Indian

outers for the assemblage of 2.000 more, giv

en by the governor on the 14th inst. to assemble on the 10th of June, I shall probably be en.

abled by the 15th Juae. to organize a force .o j

march against the Indians. I was anxious to hear where the Potlawa'atnies are, and as regards their feelings with regard to the war between the Sacs and Fox Indians and the whites. Mr. Caldwell informs me that all those who

are now in the neighborhood of Chicago and the i.ation generally ate willing to join us a

gainst the Sacs and Foxes. I am much pleased! to hear tliat thev are disposed to adopt this

course, as under existing circumstances they could hardly do otherwise than take sides, and it is altogether importrnt that we should know

which.

With the regular tro,8 that I have on Rock

Kiver, the Illinois militia, and some three hun

dred Menominee Indians that I have seat for,

and will mot probably join rtie from the neigh

oorhood of Prairie du Chien, I shall, I think, le

ible to take the field by the 1 5th or 1 7th of

est month, and drive all the hostile indians

trom the country I am, however, disirou to

employ the P jttawatamies, who know the coun

try occupied by the enemy and would, there

fore, besides umg their arms in aiding us, be of very vast impoitance Will you ascertain what number I can depend upon to juio me, and

if they would come to this place and move nith u. The reason I propose for theii joining us here, is, that I could more readily furnish pro. visions such as corn, and some meat. Shut la they agree to join, I should want them heie a out the 16th Jane. Dr. Early will hand you this, and bring yoor answer. I understand that some militia from Michigan and Indiana atetx pected at Chicago. No opetation against the hostile Indians should take place till a forte sufficient to put down all opposition, at least such an one as would ensure success, isorgani zed and put in motion. No fttrthet murders have been committed in this quattei. On the road from Dixon's ferry to Galena, one man was killed and scalped about the 20th

inst. and a small party was attacked since on

ing street, and hajusl broken up.
