Of the ordinance, however, merely to
provide for the temporary regulation ms
Of the affairs Of the territory; but its
trainers looked to the future, consider
ing that they were laying the founda-
tons OF a mighty empire, and therefore
endeavored 10 adapt it to the changes
which they anticipated would take
place in the population and resources,
of the country. With this view, pro-
vision was made for the organization Of
different grades of government, to suc-
coed each other, as the situation and
increase Of population should render
the change proper. " aei
The first grade Of territorial govern,
ment was 10 continue, until the whole
country between the Ohio and Missis-
sippi, now comprising Ohio, Indiana, /,
Illinois. and Michigan, should contain
five thousand free male inhabitants.-e
Under this grade, the people Of the ter. e
ritory had no voice in their own gov
eminent. Congress was to appoints
governor, who was to reside in the ter a
ritory, and have a freehold estate with.
in it.in one thousand acres orland, and
hold his appointment three years,unless
Dor revoked by congress. Three
judges were also to be appointed, to
hold their Offices during good behavior,
who were also to possess the quali6ca..
ton Of a freehold estate in five hundred
acres Of land in the territory. Tha
governor and judges, or a majority Of
them, had the entire legislative power;
but their authority was limited TO the =
adoption and publication Of such laws,
civil or criminal, as were in force at
the time in some n of the original
states, and were,in their opinion, neces-
sary and suitable to the circumstances
of the territory. They could not frame
original laws. The governor had the
appointment Of all officers Of the militia -
under the rank of general, and Of all
magistrates and such other civil off,
GERS as he might deem necessary for the
preservation Of peace and good order. p,
The power of dividing the territory !
into counties and townships was also
given to them. The laws adopted by
the governor and judges were to re.
main in force until superseded by acts
Of the territorial legislature, under the
second grade Of government, unless
disapproved by congress. "a

A little after sunset the FIRE upon the
garrison slackened, and Simon Girty
approached near enough TO demand a
surrender, in which case he promised
the people good treatment. He told
them that the fort could not possibly
hold out, for that in addition 10 his large
force he was in the hourly expectation
Of a reinforcement with cannon, and
that If the station should be taken by
storm, it would be impossible to save
the lives Of the persons within it. He
declared who he was, asking If any of
the garrison knew him. The Kentuc.
kians were some what dismayed by his
threat with regard-to his cannon, know
ing that Riddles and Martins stations
had been captured by that means, two
years before; but they were soon res
tored to their usual courage and spirits
by a young man named Reynolds, dis
tinguished for his sprightliness and gai-
ETY., as well as for his courage. He re-
piled TO Gritty, and in answer to his
question, whether any of the garrison
knew him, told him that he was well
known, that he himself had a worthless
dog which he had named Simon Girty.
He told him to bring on his reinforce
ments, that they expected reinforce.
ments too; and would drive him and
his gang Of murderers out Of the count
ry; that if they remained before the sta
ton twenty four hours longer their
scalps would be found drying upon the
roofs of their cabins; that if any Of
them found their way into the fort, they
had switches prepared with which to
drive them out, for that they would dis.
dain TO use any other weapons. Girty
professed to be much offended with the
levity with which his demand of a sur.
render was treated, and to deplore very
much the inevitable destruction that a.
waited the garrison. and Withdrew
Before daylight, however, the Indians
raised the siege and departed. -ap.if
On the 18th Of August, two days af-

abandoned by all its inhabitants, leav-
ing their victuals cooking v E the fires
so that when the army entered the
place, not an enemy was to be seen.-
Alter refreshing themselves with the
provisions which they found at a time
when they were very acceptable, the
secresy with which the expedition was
conducted not having allowed them to
procure game in their advance, the
the army entirely destroyed the dwell
lings and crops-after which they pro.
ceeded TO Pickaway and several other
villages, all Of which they found de-
serted, where they destroyed the cabins
and corn as they did at Chillicothe.-
During the whole expedition they
never able to fall in with any Of the
enemy, except some single individuals
or small struggling parties who gener-
ally eluded them. In a small skirmish
they killed five Indians and took sew
en- prisoners, and one Of their own
party was wounded. On their return
they arrived where Cincinnati now
stands, on the 4th Of November, where
the wounded man died and was inferred.
1t was on that occasion that the agree.
ment was made, which was lately the
subject Of so much interest in this Sec
ton of the country-that those who
should survive fifty years from thattime,
should assemble upon the same spot
and give each other their last greetings.
When the time arrived, a large city
vas standing upon the place. but the
pestilence which was raging there pre-
vented the meeting.
From that time no events Of much
interest occurred, which can be con.
sidered as belonging to the history Of
Ohio, until the settlement was COM
menced at Marietta, on the 9TH Of April,
1880, which was the germ Of this now
populous State. Although the settlers
in the western country still continued
to suffer much annoyance from tho In.
dams, in the incursions which were
kept up by small parties, by whom
families and individuals were frequently
mastered, yet the enemy eve after
wards attempted an invasion with a
combined force.
