ANEcDoTE OF THE BATTLE OF TrppEcA-
NoE.--A gentleman who had this anecdote
from the lips Of the late General Upton
himself, has been SO kind as to commit it to
writing for our use.-Richmond (pd.)
YeomGn.
During the late Presidential canvass, the
military claims of General Harrison were
freely canvassed, and some of his opponents
did not scruple to charge him with wan,
of courage. The late General Upton, o.
the United States Senate, who had served
as an ensign at the battle of Tippecanoe,
was asked by friend, Hwhat think you,
General, of Harrisou's courage" He re-
piled, 81 think hun as brave man as ever
lived-no man could have behaved with
more true courage than he did while the
engagement was hottest, and when the bul
lets flew thckest, he was to be seen speak
ing In his ordinary tone, and giving COM
mands with the greatest precision.
"The company to which 1 belonged,
said General Upton, event into action
eighty strong and only twenty survived
the firing upon us was tremendous. Aftel
the General had made his arrangement
for repelllng the attack of the Indians a
other points, he rode to where was, ant
made the following inquiries: Where's
your Captainr He is dead, SIR tWhert
is the first or second Lieutenant I?
sThey are both dead was the reply
{ Well, where is the Ensignr He stand
before you, General sWell, my brav'
fellow said Harrison, hold your groun'
for FIVE minutes longer, and all vii
be safe" In fifteen minutes the enem!
was repulsed on all sides. Tlpton gallant
ly led on his few remaining comrades T.
the charge, and victory perched upon tn
American banner.
As an evidence of Haruson's coolness il
the midst of danger, Gen, Tipton stated
that at the moment the conversation ende
| between himself and General Harrison, an
as the horse on which was mounted his aid
the late Gen. Taylor, of Ind, was in ih
act of turning, a rifle ball pierced him thrc
| the body and brought him to the grount
catching his riders leg under him. II wa

he exclaimed, "Ah, is my gallant old blac
gonel Well, rise and mount again, for W

The enemy seemed to lie making prepara-
tions for some movement ever since the
grand battle. Mnjor Chambers came over
in the evening and informed thu General
that in the morning he should be fur.rished

sOners.

and several gun-boats: they were fred on

10"clock they were gone to all appearance
Major Chambers violated his word, and fail

AN INCIDENT AT THE BATTLE M
THE THAMES.
AS RELATED by AN OLD SOLDIER.

I
, At the battle of the Thames, lauehabl
incident occurred, which is thus related b
one who was in the engagement:
The British General had formed his me
in open order, with their cannon down tn
road, by which the Americans we've ad
Vanclng. Gen. Harrison Immediately tool
advantage of this, and ordered Col. John
sons mounted regiment to charge at speed
by heads of companies (so as to expose the
least possible front) pass through The oper
intervals, and form in the rear of the Brit.
ish forces. This movement was brilliantly
executed by the battalion under the COM
mand Of Col. James johnson; his brother.
Col. r. M. Johnson, at the same time
charging the Indians with the other battal-
lion.
lthappened that in one Of the companies
under James Johnson's command, there
was huge, long legged, brawny fellow,
named Lamb; he weighed about $40 lbs,
was brave men, and as good humored as
big,-brave men proverbially are. Lamb had
broken down his Kentucky horse by his
great weight, and was mounted, instead.
upon short, stout, Canadian Lony, from
whose sides his long limbs depended almost
TO the ground, while his bulky frame rose
high above the beast--looking not unlike an
oyergrown school boy astride of rough
sheep.
When the charge was make, Lambs po-
ny took fright, and broke into strain.
Lamb pulled, until the bit broke in the ami
mails mouth, and all command of him was
lost. The little pony stretched himself to
the work, dashed out of the ranks, soon out
stripped all his leaders, and pushed on in ad-
vance of the company. Lamb was no lon
ger master of his horse or himself, and was
in quandary. Ifhe rolled off he would be
trampled to death by his own friends--lf
the horses rushed upon the British lines
with him, SO far ahead of the rest; he must
be killed. Either way, death seemed lnev-
liable; and to use his own expression, he
thougot he'd jist say somthing they could
tell his friends in Kentucky, when they
went home.
Hestuck both heels into the pony's fanks,
and urged him into his utmost speed. On
they drove some fifty yards in front of the
leading file, Lambs gigantic person sway
ing from side to side, and his legs swinging
in most protentous .fashion-the little Ca
madam apulling FOOT all he knew how, his
tail straight, his nostrils distended, his
ears pinned back, and his shiny eyes flash
ing from under his shaggy foretop with all
the spite and spleen of born devil. Just
as he got'within stride or two of the Brit
sh, Lamb flouIished his rifle, and roared out
IN voice of thunder" Clear the way,
1--n you! for I'm comngr'
To his surprise the line opened right and |
eft, and he passed through unhurt. So
great was their astonshment at the strange
ipparltion OF such rider, with such horse,
moving upon them with such furious veloci-
" thatthey opened mechanically at his word
IF command, and let him pass. So soon as
ne gained the rear of their position, Lamb
rolled off on the grass, and suffered his po.
ny to go his own road. A few minute es
more, and he was with his comrades secur-
ng the prioners.

An ALARM AT sEA.-The captain of one
of our down east schooners found himself
one day becalmed in a fog off the Isle
of Shoals, near Portsmouth, N. II. The
vessel lay with slight motion, when the
captain, with the quick ear of a seaman,
discovered by the creaking sound of cord
age, that there was another vessel close up
on him, which might run a-foul in short or
der. He had neither gun nor trumpet, to
give his neghbor warning of their close ap-
proach; and the best thing he could think
of was 10 set his men drumming on some
empty casks, but to no purpose as the sound
increased and the vessel was nearing him.
AS last effort of ingenuity, he seized a
handspike, and applying it to tho cur Of un
old grunter that happened to be on board,
gave it several turns, none of the easiest,
which brought forth squeal almost as loud
as the pig-whstle Of our locomotive engines.
This signal was effectual; and Just. before
coming in sight of his neighbor craft, bows
on, he heard her captain exclaim to the man
at the helm, in voice of thunder, "Star-
board your hslm, d--n your eyes--star-
board your helm, we're close ashore on a
hog-yardm s..e

THE WINE VEssEL.--An Enperor's
daughter once said to sage, What great
abilities are possessed by thee, and yethow
ngly thou art! How great the wisdom in
so mean vesselr'
Tell me" answered the cage, 81 in what
vessels do you preserve your wine" "In
earthern," said she. "And you are so rich!
Beg of your father that he put his VINE in
silver vessels" She did so, and the wine
became vinegar. -,t.s5s-
"Wherefore hast thou persuaded my
daughter to such folly?" inquired the En-
perOr. The sage explained to him the oc-
casion, and maintained that in one and the
same Man, Beauty and Wisdom seldom
dwell together.
"Ah," said the Emperor, "still there are
beautiful men, who are at the same time
learned and- wisen' g If they were not
beautiful, continued the sage. they would
probably be more learned and more wise.

We lately heard of q minister who had
been chaplain in Harrison's army in the
late war; who short time since, in hold
ing forth to congregation somewhere in
Indiana, and feeling it his duty to minister
to their temporal as well as their spiritual
welfare, and knowing some of his hearers
were supporters of Mr.. Van Buren,, he hit
upon the following expediency: He earnest
y prayed for the whole human race, and
That God would in mercy direct the Ame-
rican people to select for the chief magis-
tracy of these United States, one who
was
H onest and well qualified,
A merican in principle,
X epublcan in heart,
r eform his aim,
Independent of political quacks,
S trong in support of our Constitution,
o pen to the voice of the people, and
N ever depressing them, in order to graf
ity his malice against Individuals
To which there was fervid and unanim-
GUS response of AMEN .'-Harrisonian.
