IalaaaEN IN AaERIcA.--We clip the following
toast from among those, delivered on st. Patrick's
day in New York: 800
adopted Citizens-Whle carefully adhering
to the principles of the Constitution, they can
look with sullen contempt on the senseIess dri-
yellings Of that nondescript progeny, yclept the
Native American Party.
Iune-The Rogue's March.
We used, when boy, to sing song that run
somewhat in this wise -" Paddy got dhrunk on
whiskey and faters," which no doubt was the fact
in this place. or how dare set Of men whom we
have taken into our house, warmed, fed and cloth
ed, end toast with the Rogue's March," and
apply it to the Native born of the land But
how can we expect " blood from turnip-unless
it grows on slaughter house ground?" The "sul-
len contempt of these patriotic adopted citi-
zens, is just what we might expect from them in
time Of war. Should our honor as nation be
at stake, and the Isle Of Erin be in danger, the
"sullen contempt" ofthese generous citizens would
be brought to play, and it would take another
Marion to hunt the rebels and give them their
due. Their /" carefully adhering to the principles
of the Constitution is experienced in our coun-
try every day, by the lawless mobs and brutal
murders committed by them. We do not like to
be severe on any set of men; but when Native
American citizens are attacked in this way, our

by the throat. Countrymen awake

| DEAR SIR-Your letter, of the nth inst, was
forwarded, under cover, 10 Major Chambers, al
| Washington, Kentucky, and sent by him to my
residence after | left home, which must be my
apology for the delay of this answer.
| l can state that you have been correctly in
| formed that 81 was in the battle of the Thames
and near the person Of Gen. Harrison, from the
| commencement to the termination of the engage
ment, and thai personally know what part Gen
Harrison took in it," l was a Captain in the
army of the United States, and had the honor to
act as regular Aid-de-Camp to Gen. Harrison,
| during the active operation of the campaign, af-
ter the capture of The British fleet and was by
his side in the battle of the Thames, with the ex-
ception of the time when, after the capture of the
British troops, he directed me to proceed to Gov.
| Shelby, and order him to bring up SimralPS re-
giment and reinforce that portion Of Johnson's
regiment and the left Of Trotter's Brigade, which
was pressed by the Indian force.
You say sit has been openly avowed on the
| floor of the House of Representatives of Ohio,
now in session, by members in their places, that
Gen. Harrison was at no time in the battle, nor
within two miles of the battle ground, that the
entire plan of operations was projected by Col.
R. M. Johnson; that he led the troops to conquest,
and that Gen. Harrison had no part or lot in
the matter" From my personal knowledge of the
plan and events of that battle, have no hesita-
ton in stating that these declarations in relation
|
battle, are destitute of any foundation in truth
Gen. Harrison has correctly stated, in his report
to the War Department, the position he occupi-
ed Just before the commencement of the action;
and he might have added, that he in person gave
the word of command to the mounted Regiment
TO "chaIge"-h he having, with his Aids-de- Camp,
passed from the right of the front line of infan-
try, to the right of the front of the mounted CO.
lumn, and not only ordered the charge to be
made by pronouncing the word, but called upon
his Aids to repeat and pass the word along the
line. was close by his side, and he was so near
the enemy, that their fire cut down the leaves
and twigs of the trees just above our heads.
As soon as the British troops had surrendered,
and after had been sent to Gov. Shelby with the
order already adverted TO, Gen. Harrison passed
to the point where the Indians were annoying the
left, and personally directed the operations in
that quarter, to the close of the action. l met
Gov Shelby, bringing up Simralls Regiment, he
anticipated the Generals wishes as to that move
ment. In this way, Gov. Shelby and Gen. Hsr-
rison with his 80 "a,

Indians had made their most desperate effort, and
from which they soon after retreated.
The first arrangement Of the battle, as we'll as
the subsequent change, which was predicated
upon the important information obtained by the
military eye of Col. Wood, was planned alone by
Gen. Harrison. The execution of this subSe-
quent plan, was confded to the Regiment COM
rnandea by Col. r. M. Johnson, who led in per-
son the I'd battalion aided by Major Thompson;
which, in its extension to the left, brought some
portion of it in contact with the Indian line The
LIST battalion was led by Lieut.. Col. James John
son, aided by Major Payne. THIS battalion, to
the right of the front Of which Gen. Harrison
and his staff advanced, and when he personally
gave the word Charge" captured the British
line, and having thus turned the Indian left, de-
cided the fate of the day.
You are at liberty to make sach use of this let
ter as you may think proper.
Very respectfully,
Your ob't. serv't

Hon. Moses B. Corwin, Sir:-Your favor
Of the 10th inst. is just received, and lose no
time in giving it acknowledgements. You re-
quest me to communicate the information pos

Harrison at the battle of the Thames, the ar
engagements for the battle, the position Of the
Troops, as we'll as of the General, during the
engagement together with any other know

In reply, submit the following statement:
At the battle of the Thames, Col. Charles S.
Todd, afterwards Inspector General Of the
Northwestern Army, and myself, were the
regular Aids-de-camp Of General Harrison
Majors John Chambers and John Speed
Smith, were the volunteer Aids. The
battle, as is well known, took place on the right
bank of the river Thames, near the Moravian
village. A short distance from this place, and
whilst our troops were in rapid pursuit of the
enemy, General Harrison received information
from an advanced party, that the British and
Indian forces had halted, and seemed TO be a
waiting us for battle. When within half a
mile OF the enemy, after the American forces
were formed in the order of battle, General
Trotier's brigade in front; Col. PauPs regulars
with the artillery, near his right; Col Johnson's
mounted Regiment on the left of Trotter, as a
reserve, and the residue of the Kentucky Vo-
lunteers covering the left flank and the rear;
Col. Wood of the Engineer Corps who by or
der of General Harrison, had approached un-
observed by them, sufficiently near the front
line OF the enemy to ascertain their position
and the order in which they were drawn up,
reported that the British Troops, in order to
occupy the high ground between the river and
the swamp parallel to it, were drawn up in ex-
tended, or open order between these points;

out his entire interest in the Real Estate
Banking Company of this place, to the balance

certained that fifty thousand men and

and beaten into the earth, and the sur
face uodden down by the cavalry, and
furIowed deeply by the cannon-wheels

misery ofsuch battle.
Could the melancholy appearance OF
this scene of death be heightened, ii
would be by Witnessing the research
