From Gen. Harrison's report Of the battle
Of the Thames:
We have suffered greatly for the want Of pro-
Visions and the whole army has subsised, for the
last three days, on RAW BEEF WITHOUT SALT"

From Mr. Van Buren's message:
"The people look TO the Government for loo

served that the cutivators Of the soil are those who
are the least willing part with their rights, and sub
nit themselves TO the will of master"

The going forth 81 The people, and the man.
