To-day, LOGAN and two Of his Indians
started towards the Rapids, and returned a.

his men wounded---,hc third man was left be-

the body, and the other through the. hip
the one mortal, the other but slightly. Ishayc
not learn, ali the particulars OF this unfortu-
nate aflair--From the very dangerous situa-
tion of LocAN, it is deemed improper thar
he should indulge in answering questions, ar
though his composure, presence Of mind and
chccrfupcss, would willingly have satisfied
tho curiosity Of all who might choose 10 mako
inquiries about the battle In which he had
been c6Sagcd. II seems in passing from our
camp, they were early in the day taken pris-

mack, Ga celebrated hostile chicD was one,
one other was considered British officer
from his dress. About sun set, the prison-
crs resolved TO libcrate themselves, or fall

same instant, Wynamack, tho British officer
and one other Indian Gas LOGAN expected it)
the five remaining, after discharging their
pieces, fed with prccipitancy, leaving those
that were killed and two. horses. I fear the
hss. cifcsss of our surgsons will be onavail-
Grmly-I shall deplorc his loss as | would
that of a great man, for he is really SUCH"
DAYTON, (ohjo) Dec :.
Gen. HAnRIsoN is still engaged in collect
ing supplies for his army an undertaking at
| this season Of the year, and in the present
| condition Of the roads, attended with difficult
tics almost nconcciva5Ic. We believe all l.
dea Of invading Canada from this anartcr
| sooner than spring, are already abandorcd.
General HARnIsos does no, intend to risk
his fame and the safety of his troops, upon
contingencies. We presume, he does not
| intend 10 march until his means Of supply arc
/ fixed upon sure basis. II
| JAMES LOGAN, the hall-blood Shawanoc
Indian who has been acting as spy Ia Gencral
HAnnIsoN's army FOR some time past, was
severely wounded last wess by somc OF has
countrymen, while on an excursion near Fort
Defiance, in company with Capt. JoSsy and
another Indian. HIS wound is said to be
mortal.
