HISTORY OF THE WAR.

VIE subscriber proposes l. .- ,n.'Iis1 sub.
scriptioD, History THE LATEWAR up
on the Illinois frontier. Having heen an actor
in many of ITS interesting scenes, and being well
acquainted with its principal events, which he
deems too important to be forgotten, be fiarters
himself that he will be rendering the public an
acceptable service in attempting to preserve them
In The execution of his plan, the writer will aim
at truth alone, and make it his chief object to
embody facts, and recount the most interesting
incidents as they really occurred, without regard
opnvate feelings or party prejudices
Ihe task he has undertaken he is well
aware, is an arduous one-he foresees that to
prepare and present to he-publlc such work as
be contempiates, in form and style worthy f
appreciation, will be attended with many perplex~
afies and difficulties. These, however, he be
ileves he is prepared to meet with the requisite
degree OF patience and perseverance, animated by
the hope of rendering the State some service"
at has fireside as well as in the field The sui
serlbef7s Intention to publish such work as is
here spoken Of has been previously made known
The plan, however, first contemplated, is deemed
quite too limited to give room to present the sub
lect fully and fairly. L. is hence thought advi-
sabie to extend 1t SO far as to embrace, not only
the incidents OF the recent war, but to include,
also, some account of the intercourse and rela-
tlonshiP OF our government with the principal
northwestern tribes. This will enable the wri~
ter to enter more fully into specification Of he
causes which led to the recent hostrties, and
give, what he presnmes will be- interesting to m st
readers, the substance of the treaties between the
United States and the north western Indians
from 1904, down to the present time.
The execution of the plan so enlarged, will be
attended with much more expense than the writer,
unassisted, is willing to bear. He, therefore,
appeals to the public, and to his feliow-volunteers
tor a'd--confident that his call upon generous
community, and upon those who shared with him
IN The tolls and adventures which he intends IL
recount, will not be in vain

TESTIMONY OF JOHN q. ADAMS.

The time was-and but 4 few years aGo--whcn
the declarations opinions Of John Quincy Adams
carried no weight with them, in the estimation Of
certain partisans in this country 1t their in
crest III create false impressions, and their efforts
were successfully directed TO the Accomplishment
oflhcr object; Tor they soon learned a great por.
| ton OF the people to think with them. All this
however, has passed away. - change has come
over the scene" Last winter, on the floor of Con
gress, the amende honorable made, and, party
purposes having boon answered. by common con.
sent, Mr. Adams has been placed alongside his
great prcdcccssors-his opinions quoted with re-
spect-hs declarations received AK authority, and
justice awarded to his motives. Thus situated,
think i: due To tho OF injured innocence to
adduce Mr.. Adams testimony in behalf of Mr.
Clay, and to claim for it the respectful attention of
both parties.
Soon after the close of Mr.. Adams's administra.
ton, he received an address from certain citizens
OF New Jersey, expressing their appreciation of his
conduct. In his reply to that address, Mr.. Adams
thus speaks of Mr.. Clay:
Upon MIR. Clay the foulest SANDERS have been
showcrcd. Long known and Appreciated, sue
cessIycly a member of both hoases of your nation
al legislature, the unriyallcd speaker, and, at
the same time, most efficient leader of debates in
one of thCm-as an able, successful negotiator for
your interests in and i'll peace, with foreign
powers, and powerful candidate for the high
est OF your trusts. The Department of State it.
self was station which. by it's bestowal, could
coulter neither profit nor honor upon him, but upon
which hc has shed unfading honor, by the manner
in which he has discharged its duties Pre-.
imdice and passion have charged HIM with
obtaining tina; office by bargain and corruption.
Before YOU my fellow citizens, IN the presence of
country and Of Heaven, l pronounce that
charge totally unfounded. This tribute OF justice
is due from pc to him, and seize with pleasure
the oppo ,tunity afforded INC by your letter OF dis
charging the obligation.
GAS TO my motives for rendering to him the de
partment of state when did. let that man who
questions them, come forward. Let him look
around among statesmen and legislators of this
nation, and of that day. let him then select
and name the man whom, by his prc-c,ni-
ncn talents by his splendid services, by his ardent
patriotism, by his ail.embracing public spirit, by
his fervld eloqrcnce, in behalf Of the rights and
liberties of mankind, by his long experience in the
affairs the union, foreign and domcstic;-a pre-.
sident Of tho United States, intent only upon
the honor and welfare Of his country, ought
to have preferred to Henry Clay. Let him name
the man, and then judge you, my fellow.ci.
