REvoLUTIoNAR ANECDoTE.-Aiicrth the bat
tie of Bunker Hill, when the Americans had retired
from the field, the British still kept up IL random
cannonadng. Three Americans weary and en-
hausted, sat down on the grass TO tell each other of
their ''lmir breadth escape and to discus wiihal
the contents ofiheir cantecns. While thus RECALLING
themselves, they were thrown into great constesra-
ton by cannon ball which struck the ground within
few yards of where they We're sitting two of
them sprang to their feet in I'm instant and attempted
to find some other place of security "a ctious char
acter, by the name ofSmi,h from CINNAMON, N. II.
seated himself upon the exact spot where the ball
struck, and looking up in the direction from whence
it come, with no apparent concern, said, "i'oo!
Shoot away, and be hanged, you can, hit twice in
the same place.

A day or two since, an honest intelligent democrat
accOsted us in the street, said he ''ihey tell that
"A. and h. have left us-s it truc:" No, was our
reply, there is not word Of truth in it. We made
this answer confidently from their own assertions
for they had heard the sanderous report and, had
taken pains to give the thing the lie. I he counte-
nance Of our friend frightened up at first into an
expression of pleasure, hut it gradually assumed
sterner character. His indignation was reused, and
in words, not loud but deep, he continued -''l he

GENER ALSIIIp.

A tabular statement of the results Of the battles
dnrlng the last war, given by Niles in the 10th vol.
of his Register, shows
]. That Harrison had more men killed and wound
ed at Tippecanoe (uhere, according 10 his orn
statement, he had superior force orer the didns)
than Gen. jackson lost in killed and wounded in
either of his great battles of the 23d of December
and 9Th Of January, at New Orleans.
2. That Harrison lost only thirteen less, killed
and wounded, at the battle of Tippecanoe, than
Gen Jackson lost in both of his battles at New
Orleans.
g. The loss Of the British in the last battle before
New Orleans, was about four times as great as in
all the battles fought under the orders of Harrison.
T. The Indians lost more men, killed and wound
ed, in the single battle of the Taaoosa, fought by

Gen Jackson, than in al! the actions in which IIar-

Gen. jackson, than in all the actions in which iIar-
risOn commanded.
5. Harrison lost within sXty-eght of as many in
the single battle of Tippecanoe, in which he gained
nothing for his country, as Gen. jackson did in all
his battles with the Indians, which made the con-
quest of the Southwest.
6. Gen. Harrison lost more men in the single bat
tie of the Rapids of Miami, than Gen. Jackson lost
in all his battles with the Indians and British.
7. Gen. Harrison lost more, in killed and wound
ed, in the battle Of Fort Mcigs, against force of
eight hundred British and Indians, than General
jackson lost in either of his battles before New
Orleans, against the whole force of British regulars,
exceeding ten thousand.
8. More men were lost IN the massacre OF the
river Raisin, (produced by the failure of Harrison
to send up reinforcement, as MesSrs. Madison and
Garrard testiiy,) than in all the battles fought by
Gen. Jackson against the British and Indians during
the last war.
In view of the state of the account ending will,
the second battle of French Town, on the river Raj
sin, Niles concludes his tabular statement of the
war, with the remark that
"Ihe first campaign, ending mih the second
bGHle Of French Iomn, was Mie else Maa A
SERIES OF DEFEATS AND DlSGRACE."
OF the second campaign, the Register says;
"Ln the second campaign our armies ~ere, in
considerable degree, successful. BUT [mark
the butt STILL THE FAILURE OF TIE
NORTHERN DIVISION mas disastrous"
This is history, (par,ial history to our country
and its Generals setting down the truth just after
the conclusion of the war and it marks Harrison
the hero ofdcicats and failures.
The Register speaks in more exulting tone,
when bring down the account of the battles fought
under The inimitadle commander, General JACK
SON." He speaks of him as "the conqucror q
the conquerors Of Europe," as presenting "an
impenirabie front TO The inradiag army; J" and
he concludes his remarks with saymg;-1hus The
close ofthe mar mas more glorious to our arms
than its commencement uas disastrous" Harrison
began it-JacksOn ended it.
