who falls gloriously defending His country's liberties, her territories, and her laws, falls not unhonourcd, sleeps not forgotten. The surviving comrades in nrms of those who fell here have after a lapse of nearly nineteen years once again returned to pay their sad tribute of respect. With what feelings of mingled sorrow and triumph must their bosoms this day be filled. They stand upon the spot rendered immortal by their deeds; beore them in one promiscuous heap lie the uncovered ashes of men who living Tere unto them as brothers; memory can go back and give to those scattered bones the living lineaments which lighted up the face of each possessor memory ever faithful to the past has perhaps been busy to day in directing their attention to each spot of eventful occurrence. There perhaps fell some loved comrade whose gay and happy spirit could infuse its own cheerfulness in all around. Here vas received the last sigh of some noble heart, whose dying look silently pleading to be remembered in after years, is even to this hour indelibly stamped on memory; there was entrusted the precious deposit for some far distant mother or wife, or sister, the inestimable token of fond remembrance even in death. Soldiers, survivors ot the battle, the dead whose bones lie before you could claim no higher token of remembrance than you have this day given. After years spent in the toils Sc vicissitudes of life, you have returned with a purpose nlike honorable to yourselves and sacred to their manes. Ke who was then your general, is prevented by sickness from being now amongst you; hi3 life from that period has been devoted alike to the civil and military service of his country, & with the same pure purpose as yoursel Vcs he would have come to day without a stain to tarnish the bright laurels won on this and subsequent fields; rank and station are no longer his, but the pure affections of those who fought under him, undiminished as I know it to be in many a bosom at this hour, are for him the proudest trophies that the warrior can boast. To him and to you and to the survi vors of this victory wherever they are, we this day tender the full homage of our gratitude, for your gallant exertions That gratitude is not diminished by the Spectacle we have witnessed to-day, of your affection for the memory of your less fortunate comrades. Nineteen years ago and the noble spirits of whom nothing now remains but this mouldering heap of bones, impelled by no motive but philanthropy and patriotism, were rushing forward through an inhospitable wilderness to this spot destined to become in the same short hour their field of glory and their grave. They came the manly in form, the high and generous in purpose, with the active step, with light and brave hearts, together they came; shoulder to shoulder, with flashing eye and firm hand, together they fought; side by side, together they fell; side by side, bosom to bosom, together they sleep. As their bones sleep, so lives their fame, one indivisible, the common property of their country and their 0e6cendants. The fearless Owen, the heroic Spen cer the intrepid Warrior, Randolph, McMahan, White, Berry, and Baen, lie mingled with their soldiers. There too is what was once the noble and the gallant Daviess, the spotless patriot, the unrivalled orator, and the disciplined soldier; he who, in the last moments of mortal agonyi could think only of his country. The damp of death was on him, its film was fast closing his eyesight, when gently putting aside the kind hand that would have assisted hirr, lie asked the result of the battle. Being told that we were victorious and that the Indians were driven off. the simple ex

clamation, "Thank GodI I am satisfied!" T?as all he uttered. A smile a gentle smile settled upon his pallid features, he died away and it was there still How beautiful is it to look back upon a death like his; but with what exultation must every American bosom thrill to know, that each 6oldier who fell here died as he did. Far off from home and kindred, in the irtidst of a tractless wi'derness, their re mains were left with many a tear shed by their surviving comrades over their hasty graves. From these graves their remains were torn and stripped, and vi olated by the ruthless hand of the Indian, maddened by defeat; for years after they vere left to bleach and whiten upon these plain9, undisturbed in their repose, save by the fierce yell of some passing savage, made frantic by looking upon the spot stained with his people's treachery and their punishment. But still the purpose for which they fought and fell was in a great measure accomplished, broken and dispirited, the most formidable of the savage tribes either returned home, or sent in thtir acceptance of our terms The defence less inhabitants ot the frontier were no longer intimidated by the midnight veil of the savage; in peace they could return to their h nes, in safety the mother could once more press her infant to her boso it without in apprehension that the knife was already raised for its sacrifice. To dav we have heard and seen how far that purpose was accomplished We hve stood in security and heard over 'hese 5-aves the musical voice of C5rd' Minister uplifted in all the harmony el ft rvent ruwi eloquent prayer. The and which a few short years ago was vast solitude, the abjde of savage

beasts or still more savage men, now presents the alternate prospect of farms and hamlets, the solitary echoes of the forest are lost amid the clinkings of the anvil, and the strokes of the axe. Above and below, and on all sides the wilder

ness has faded before the rapid march of i civilization, rendered secure in its advances, by that battle. The county in whose geographical limits this ground is included already contains a population of nearly eight thousand souls. Within sight of this spot runs the line of our contemplated canal. Surviving veterans of the victor)! No 'storied urn' with gorgeous display tells the last home of your brave associates, but these, all these are the living, the speaking, the deathless monuments of Ihc grorious dead. Their bodies may moulder here, but their fame is not confined, it at least has no locality, for it is every where and forever. This spot too is hallowed ground, it i3 consecrated to their repose, and in after ages patriotism shall make hr pilgramagc to the grav es on Tippecanoe, where rest the fallen soldiers of liberty. From the Philadelphia Daily Chronicle. A London correspondent of ti e NewYork Evening Post, characterized by the editors, as onc who has access to the best means of information on the sub ject, and who is of too sound and candid a mind to give it a false colouring," speaks thus of the obstacles surmounted by Mr. M'Lanc in the negotiation recently terminated: "He has indeed, had a laborious, doubtful, and anxious task, and at every step has had to contend not only with open opponents, but vvith secret and indefatigable adversaries, who were conjuring up all kinds ol doubts and difficulties. The subject was embarrassed with many corfltciini: interests, the true value and beating o!" which were not well understood, and li.it: to be patiently and minutely develops and placed in their proper light. Part ol the cabinet were brought gradually into our favour; but others, and those the most important members, remained hard to be convinced; and Mr. M'Lanc had, in a manner, to furnish one part with arguments with which to convince the other. The written part of the negoci ation furnishes but a faint idea of what was done in verbal conference; for the frank, manly, and gentlemanlike deport- .. C ft m a r . mem 01 iir.

It required the most unwearied pains & the clearest exposition, supported by statiscal statements carefully adduced and acutely applied, to oblige some ot the ministry to abandon the position they had taken behind these interests, and which for a time they seemed doggedly resolved to maintain. The course ol lessoning directed by Mr. M'Lane against these formidable interests, both in conference and correspondence, was ol the most perspicuous and conclusive kind; and the records of it which will appear among the papers of this mission, but which, alter all, are but sketches ot the verbal ai guings, will, if I mistake not, be considered among the ablest papers in the whole course of our diplomacy." wimiw !. mil. t t NEW STORE. f PMI E subscribers are now opening JL in the new Store on Market-street, next door to Messrs.

Price per annuir?,, Si 50 in advance. THB LilDY'S BOOK, CHARLES ALEXJADFE, Publisher of the Daily Chronicle, and well. known as having been onnected in the publication of the Saturday evening Pcit and Casket proposes in conjunction with Louis A. Godly, to commence, on ths first of July next, a monthly LITERARY MISCELLANY, under the above title. This work will be devoted especially to the service of the Ladies, and looking chiefly to them for patronage, no exertion will be spared to merit it. The plan contemplated varies materially from that ff any of the American periodicals now circulated ; and if executed in the style which the proprietors believe to be within their means, will be found, they trust, to be an improvement, in some respect at least, upon the best of its predecessors. In the choice cf materials, though contributions of decided merit will always be acceptab.c, they nevor will be introduced to the exclusion cf other articles of superior value. The numerous Magazines to be provided for the purpose of selection, will always afford a plentiful supply of matter suitable lor the Lady's Book, which, when republished, wdl possess, for all but a few, the attraction of novelty. Extensive arrangements have beco made at home and abroad that will give every facility to the ready attainment cf the choicest and earlist productions. The design includes every thing which may be expected to afford entertainment and instruction, in an inviting form, to those for whom the work is intended. It is presumed toe, that a Miscellany deserving the notice cf tho ladies, cannot but prove worthy cf the other sex. Among the subjects which may be cnumerated as likely to be prominent, will be found Music, including notices of new compositions, with occasional disquisitions on the science, and reprints cf such New Songs as may be thought worthy to be so dis tinguished ; Biographical anecdotes. Tales and interesting Narratives, frcm writers of real talent; the Fashions, with an illustrative engraving quarterly, fancifully coloured. This department will be under the superintendence of persons well versed in the art, and no pains will be spared to render il not the least attractive part of its contents. A word or two now and then will be introduced, touching those exercises & sports which are generally regarded as improving to both health and beauty, among which. Riding and Dancing may be specified, wit'a appropriate wood cuts by skilful artists. Poetry, of course will be one of the Departments to which great attention will be paid; and Embroidery, the poetry of Needle work, will fill its due space. On this latter subject it will be difficult to find contributors who can write clearly, but the eugTaver will be perfectly intelligible. CONDITIONS. The work will be issued in numbers, on the first of ever)' month, and comprise fifty hix large octavo pages ; to be printed on a fine super royal paper, with entirely r.cw type, and carefuilv stitched in coloured covers. Ever)- number will contain a piece cf Music, one Copperplate Engraving, and at least fi,ur Wood cuts, illustrative f the contents ; and every three months a crloured plate cf the latest London or Pari Fashions. The subscription price will be S3 per annum, payable in advance 25 er cent, semi-annually, will he added to all subscriptiensthat remain unpaid, and the wcrk discontinued to those who neglect to settle up their arrears. (Jreat attention will be paid to forwarding the work to country subscribers, that they may receive it uninjured by mail transportation. Agents, receiving subset iptions, and remitting the amount to the publishers, will be jillowed 15 per cent. discount, or a proportionate number ot copies of the work. Address LEWIS A. CODEY, c CO.
