BATTLE OF TIPPECANOE.

from the Hamilton ( O.J IntdVgrncrr. North Bend, 11th Nov. 1833. Sik My attention was cil!cd some weeks a. io, to an article in your paper upon the "Battle of Tippecanoe," re-printed from ihe Kentucky Intelligencer. It was in the shape of a communication to the editor of that paper, from some person w h ) had, as ho said, lately visited the scene of the battle. Within a few weeks since, I saw, in the Vincennes Gazette, a similar article extracted, like the other,

from the Kentucky Intel ngencer. As both of these articles contain a most infamous libel upon my character, I have de tennined to reply to them. But os equal injustice was done to the Re -ni Jar Troops and the Volunteers, ar.il the Militia of Indiana which served m the battle, I conti-

and personally kuown to all of them, mv chance of escape would of course be less

than any other. It is also a well known fact, that if the attack upon Fort Meigs, in lSIo, had been successful, the Indians had stipulated with Gen. Bpctor, that the rest of the garrison should iJO spared, if myself and any others whoTlhuftrticipaSed in the battle of Tippecanoe, was delivered up to be treated as they might think proper. What would have been my

fate, and that of my gallant aids-de-camp,

Croghan and OTallon, may be easily conjectured by those who understand the kind of treatment usually received by Indian prisoners, who ha'. e rendered themselves obnoxious to them. But it was not dangers resulting from service in the field to which I was alone exposed. Three times I escaped assassination by the interferr

ence of kind Providence, in two of which instances the plan was laid with the deep cunning characteristic, of the Indian, that their failure seems almost miraculous.

It may be supposed by some that I am too much excited by tlvj slanders of an anonymous writer. I answer, that ( should not have noticed them, if an importance which they would not otherwise have posssssed had not been given by their republication in other prpcrs. This circumstance will be considered as sufficient evidence that the editors of those papers believed them to be true, and their numerous readers will imbibe the same opinion, aud thus a vile slander upon the commander and nine tenths of the army will be received as true and faithful history. The communications in the Kentucky Intelli

gencer have the appearance of being made

attempt

numerically small, being only two; but great, a regards the merits of these who fell. Daviess himself, and Col. White, of Illinois, serving as a private volunteer. If the charge had been successful, I should have considered it no compensation for the lives of those brave men and devoted patriots. The statement of Capt. Snelling, will show the steps that were taken on the occurrence of this disaster. The claim advanced for Col. Daviess by the correspondent of the Kentucky Intelligencer, are entirely new. Shortly af ter the battle the friends of Col. Daviess made a violent attack upon me in the Ken tucky newspapers, upon the ground of my having sacrificed him by having ordered

him to make this very charge, which is now represented to have 'won the victory and saved the army.1 From the newspapers this accusation has been transferred into a work written by Humphrey 'Marshall, styled the 'History of Kentucky.' Iarn thus placed before the public in two attitudes, entirely inconsistent with each other. The readers of 'the history1 will think, (if they believe it,) that I deserve to bo shot for hating ordered a charge by dismounted Dragoons in opposition to correct military principles, and by which a distinguished man was lost to his conn try. Whilst the readers of the Intelligencer will think that I merit to be cashiered at least for not having ordered the charge which was undertaken by the Majo'r upon his own responsibility, and which, 'won the victory and saved the army.1 I am thus, Mr. Editor, placed in the situation of a boy, to whom some waggish comrade proposes the determination of a bet by tossing up a copper on the terms, heads I win tails you loose.'' But both ac

counts are equally false, as will be seen inthe sequel. Whilst upon the subject of the falsification of the Western wars,

it is not inapplicable to mention that that of Mr. Marshall is no, the only one in which it has been done to my prejudice. Soaie years ago, n small volume was pub

lished in Kentucky, professing to give an account uf ih 3 Indian faiv, compiled by a Mr. Metcalf. In the account which i gienof the groat battle fought by the army of Gen. Wayne, at the ilapids of the Miami of the lake, the olii ual communication of thy commanding Jeueral to the government, in which those who distinguished themselves are noticed, is so mutilated, that a reader of the account would suppose that none had done so but the Kentucky volunteers. The names of ail the regular olfiCGrs are omitted. Amongst these, I hud the honor to be mentioned by

dlC iL2CtCill EbUH pied in repelling the attacks, direct and in-! tioned. In the charge made by Major j respondent of the jvcntuckyjntelligcncer j

nas ati;mptcd to make them. As to myself, th calumnies of which I complain, must, in a short time, cease to give me pain. If there were no other monitor to warn me, that in a few years I will be placed beyond their reach, the reminiscences recorded above would have done so, by biinging before me the fact, that now upward of forty two years have passed away, since, in the capacity of a subaltern officer, I first encountered the diihculties aud hardships of & soldier, . in the then trackless wilderness ef Ohio and In liana. But, in common with every military man of correct principles, I cannot rest under the imputation of having betrayed the trust reposed in me by my country, or that the honor of that country has ever been tarnished by mv hands. In relation to this matter I ask of mv fellow citizens no

other favor but that of an examination of the responsible testimony I olfcr in opposition to the bare-faced, malignant, and unsupported assertions of those who have assailed inc. Of those who are the authors of the subjoined documents, Gen. Waller Taylor, after having served nine years in the .Senate of the U. S. died a few vears ago but the statement made ov him is corroborated by the signature of

Col. Piatt, who was the Quarter Master

General upon the Wabash Campaign, as he was afterwards to Gen. Jackson, and is the same gentleman wii ) lately bended the Jackson electoral tikct of this state. The Major Parke who signs I he Vincennes resolutions, is the present U. t. Judge tbr the district of Indiana, and it is no disparagement to ether, to say, that for the estimable qualities of the'head and heart

tor legal learning and iha confidence of

the people of Indiana, he is socoud to none in his state. Major Laribee, besides dis tinguishing himself in the battle of Tippecanoe, was jbtill more distinguished in the battle of Brownstov.n, where he lost an arm. He is now tho collector of Cincinnati. From the statements of these gf:itlcmcn', it will appear that the camp was not chosen by the Indians, but by statTofficers of the ar :iy, alter an examination of the surrounding country that it was a good one that the army was not sarpri-

sen, butinatnil the precautions were ta

ken that could betaken and that it was

in complete readiness to receive the enemy that the troops had been disciplined in the manner practised by Gen. Wayne, (by my personal exertions,) that the order -.i' battle was the one used by the General that all the charges made during the battle, (of which there were many,) were made by my order and under my own observation and finally (if it is worth

while to contradic so vile a fabrication)

rerting the mis-statements of fche correspondenl of the Kentucky Intelligencer. The event has proven that I was not mistaken, and I now fcond you the Indianapolis Journal, of the lOih u!t. containing the remarks of A Volunteer' upon those productions. The responsibility and resueetabi'itv of tin- writer is vouched for bv

ment of the facts and a full justification' of that measure. Respired, That we believe the present attempt making by the bank and its agents to excite alarm, i3( w ithout foundation cr just c;ause, and any distress or pressure in the money market which now exists, is caused by tho Bmk endeavoring to coerce the State' Binks into its measures and curtailing its discounts, and intended only to operate on the minds of the pe.pie so as to obtain a renewal of its charter, which pressure, if any, w ill subside as soon as their hopes aro defeated. RcsohcJ, That if the Bank has it in its pow er in the short period of seventeen years' existenco to produce the distress it has, a further continuance of such an institution for twenty years would produce a total destruction of our government and muke tho people the slaves of this mammoth moneyed monster. RcsohcJ, That the votrs of V -drew Beaumont, our representative in Congress on this subject, meets our entire approbation, and his opposing bv aj ,neay ;a power the restoration of the deposiic to the United States Bank and the renewal of its charter wiif truly represent tho wishes of the Jackson Democrats of Co

vice I afibrded him as his Aid-dc-camp in that iiaportant victory. But the most singular aud daring outrage upon the truth of history, aud to my injury, is yet to be mentioned. A history of the late war, in the shape of an Eoic Poem, in several

a volumes, was published some time ago, by a Doct. Emmons of Kentucky. The author, I believe, endeavors to follow the true history, as fir as it regards the events of the war, and in no instance has he mis

placed the officers who commanded the several district armies, but in mine. Hc constitutes Gov. Shelby the commander in chief of the northwestern army, and not only daces him in that station on the campaign of ISPd, (in part of which he served hs second in command.) but in the previous operations, (at the siege of Fort

Mv igs, for instance,) he transfers the venerable Governor from his own fire side at Frankfort, to that fortress, invests him with the command, surrounds him with my own Aids-de-camp, and puts into his mjuth the very orders wdiieh he finds re
