As to the army I have it not in my. power to inform you of the intended move ments ; they are near a hundred miles from this, and it is probable to meCongreis, ofteu receive official accounts before we are poflefled of facts in this settlement. , I flatter my felf fomethiug will be done this campaign—you remember my story . of the bees, by looking at the map you may fee the line between our country and the Indianlands; fiomthe State of Pennsyl vania to the great Miami down the the Ohio, the lands have been fairly purchased from the Indian tribes, or in other words they have received such presents as inclin ed them to draw off from and relinquish all their right to the abo¥e described lands ; IromPennfylvaniato thegreat Miami is our couutry, the lands over the Miami being in pofieflion of the Indians, we call that the Indian country, therefore as scon as General Wayne crossed the great Miami he was in the Indian country and 1 am in hopes his army likothe bees will thisfpring begin to swarm ; the worst thing that per haps could havehappened was the pretenti ous of the Indians to vvifha peace; the whole of which I believe to be nothing but dpli.- fiou deceit and artifice, for nearly from thr.t time they have seemed to doubletheir vigi lance on the.efcoits and the infant settle ment ; they are generally in Columbiatwo or three times a week in the night, and fre quently steal our horses and scalp our valu able neighbors and citizens. About todays ago they killed one of my neighbors Mr. David Jennings, a man of excellent charc ter as a citizen and chriftian. lam afraid Congress will be deceived by the Indians and consequently not forward reinforce _ I hayg nftfii heen furprifetLjhat lome of our fellow citizens who are not opposed to war, in point of principle, should view the present war as being an unjust one, fay the war is about the In dian lands of which fay they, we are driv ing to deprive them. I dont think that to be the ground of the present war ; the fact is they have received a valuable consider ation for the above (lefcribed land, from Pennsylvania to the great Miami; and not withstanding, have to my khowledge been near five years plundering and scalping the citizens of the United States reliding on those very lands for which they have ac cepted a valuable consideration and this they have done long before our government exerted its powers tofubdue them. For my part I not only deem the war to be a just one ; but I believe it the duty of our go vernment to protest its citizens, and altho' the measures adopted have been unfortu nate yet I cannot but feel gratefull to go vernment for the exertions they have made, f although 1 know they have done no more than their duty. For the Gazette of the United States Some ftri&ures on sundry taxes report ed by the committee of ways and means, to the House of Representatives in Con gress, and lately difcufled in Committee of the whole House, may deserve notice —and are humbly ofFered to the conside ration of Congress and the Public. I ft. Land and labor ought never to he taxed. They are the feed, the embrio,- the original principles of all our supplies and all our wealth. The farmer who hf s purchased and cleared land, and f\Veats all day to raise bread, has done his part t< - wards the support of the country, and it is no hardlhip for men who eat his bread to pay him for it, and excuse him from Taxes too.—The firft tender germing and shoots of every fruit, should be carefully nursed and prote&ed; for the lealt op preflion and burthen, will lefTen & retard or perhaps wholly prevent their perfecti on • but these remarks, as far as they re late to a land tax, are now unnecef&ry,
