From speech delivered by Gen. Harrison, on
recent visit to Portage County, We make tie fol
lowing extract-Gen. Harrison said
lie had drawn down upon himself the panicu-
lar hostility of the Indians, because he refused to
WELD back to them a million more acres OLA nd
which he had fairly and honorahly purchased of

him several times,-and being firsd on bv Te-
cumseh, and his brother the prophet, their fierce
hostility was directed at him personally, as aev
supposed that he alone stood in the way of
ing their land. After the English had employed
the Indians IN the last Gen. Proctor told
them that he instructed BY his Government
to forbid their killing prisoners, and women and
children, a stipulation that would be strictly IN
sisted upon. Upon this the Indians had talk.
and announced to Proctor that they willing
to assent to the proposition with exception;
and that was. ii Gen Harrison should be taken
prisoner. he should be delivered over to them,
that they might punish him they pleased. To
this Proctor basely consented. He (Gen H
told his Indians IN consequence OF this, deeining
that Proctor had violated every principle of honor

need not kill him, but they mig ht take the petit

to some divinity, TO whom travellers required
to address long prayers. As this would occupy
too much time for those who IN haste. a ma
chine is used consisting of upright posts with an

this plate upon which the prayer is engraved, is
deemed equivalent to repeating the prayer.

AGRICULTURAL
From the New England Farmer.
AGRICULTURAL IMPROVEMENTS.
No w

In speaking of productive improve
ments, we mentioned first the retaining
or recovery of lands now laying waste.
saturated with water, unenclosed. or in
forest. Of land in this condition there is
very great amount in the State, as eve
ry considerable farmer may easily satisfy
himself, if he will take the trouble of look
ing over his own premises. The facts in
the case, the actual amount of land on al
most every place, even of moderate extent,
susceptible of being brought under cultiva-
ton and improvement, and rendered pro-
ductive, would surprise almost any one,
who would be at the pains to examine the
subject; to go over every field and pasture
every wet meadow and woodland, and see
how many pieces now make no return !:
and IN how many instances the returns
made are nothing compared with what
they might be. We should in most cases
do wrong to speak of them as returns: a
return implies something first given /; that
is, labor done or expense incurred in order
to obtain it. Much of the land of which
we are speaking, has never felt the hand
OF Improvement nor even so much as the
lifing Of finger upon it. Men are fond
OF extending their territories; and of look.
ing around upon wide enclosure. wheth-
ercullivated or improved or not. and feel.

mon, which was ascribed to one man who
was determined, if possible, to possess all
the land which joined his. 1t is often said
that it is better to cultivate a little land g,
cultivate it well, than TO cultivate a GOOD
deal poorly. We certainly agree to this.
but we have another axiom, which we
think quite as sound. In situations where
farming is made profession, where agri-
cnllure yields fair compensation to labor
and labor and capital can be procured, Il
y better to cultivate a good deal of land.
