DEAR Sin,—L-Your letter of ..the 17th inst.
was forwarded under cover, pi - Major Chem?
hers, at. Washington, Kentucky, and sent by
him to my residence after I left home, which
must be my apology for the delay of this an
swer.
• • I can state that you have been correctly
informed that: " I was in the battle of the
Thames, and neat' the person of Gen. flarri
s,ll, from the commencement to the termina
tion of the engAgement, and that I personally'
know what part (iatt Harrison took in it."
1 was. a captain in Ihearmy of the United
Stale, and had the honor to-act as a regular
Aid•de: Camp to Gen. I iarris?rn. during the
active operations Of the . canipaigri; after the
capture of the British fleet; and was by his
side in the battle of the Thames, with the bx-,
ception of the time when, after the capture
of the British troops, he directed me to pro
ceed to Gov Shelby, and order him to bring
up Simrall's regiment and reinforce that por•
tt••n of Johnson's 'egim-nt arid the tett nt
Trotter •••• hriOado, w ,

• 'A I • - •.. 1. ' If.
I . xkliS rtt ,j, ;Ill) • In the b.ll
- n o! ton two tolles of the ilattle ground,
that the entire plan ofoperat ions was project
ed by Col, R. M. John.on; thiit he led the
troops to conquest, and that G. n Harrison
had no part or lot in the matter."- From my
personal knowledge (lithe plan and events of
that battle, [hate no hesitation in stating,
that these declarations in relation to Gen
Harrison's position and conduct in that battle,
are destitute of any foundation in truth.
General Harrison has correctly stated, in his
report to the War Department, the posi
tion he occupied 'just before the com
mencement of the action; and he might have
added, that he • in. person crave the word of
command to the mounted r regiment to
" charge"— he having, with his aids-de-camp,
passed from the right of the front line of in
fantry, to the right of the front of the mount
ed column, arid 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. 1 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 surren- -
dered, and after I had been sent to Governor
Shelby with the order already ,adverted to,
General Harrison passed to a point whore the
Indians were annoying the left, and personal
ly directed the operations in that quarter, to
the close of theaction. '1 met Gov. Shelby,
bringing up Simrall's Regiment, he having
anticipated, the General's wishes as to that
movement. In this way, Gov. Shelby and
Gen. Harrison with his aids, met at the potnt
where the Indians had made their most des
pirate effort rind from which they soon after
retreated.
The first arrangement for the battle, as,
well. as the subsequent change, which was
predicated upon the information obtained by
the military eye of COl. Wood, was planned'
aldne. by Lien:, Harrison.—The execution of
this subsequent plan, was confided to the Reg.
merit commanded by Col. R. M. Johnson,
who led in person the 2d battalion, aided by.
Major Thompson; which, in ite extension to
the left, brought some portion of it in contact
with the Indian line. The first battalion
was led by Lt. Col. James Johnson, aided by
Major Paynej 'The battalion, to the right of
the front of which Gen. Harrison and his staff
advanced, and where he personally gave the
word "charge," captured the British line,.
and having thus turned the Indian left, deeid.
e 4 the fate , ot ihe day.

Soon after thie t _an Officer, (1 believe the late
Judge John McDowell, of Ohio,) , tiod report- .
ed thaethe left wing, at or near.the cretchet, i
was suffering severely, and in great diserder.
This communication was made in the Gar- -

emphaiic manner—but giving 'order to the
next in command to push forward, he dashpd
with the messerigeti to the indicated point of
conflict and confusion, and found the contest
pretty close and r- , ?..irere. A portion of John.
son's Regiment, owing to the impracticability
of the ground ler horse, had dismounted,and
-was fighting on loot and mingled with the in
fantry—which had been, to some extent the
cause nc, the confusion. Order was soon re

less than ten let of tb.: General; for the con
test here was sharp and att'ininted, and con.
Imlieti j io fur some tun. With the,exceplion
I
if tile cua-ge made by Co. Johnsottb Regi
ment, Gen. Harrison was in the most expos
ed and dangerous parts of the battle.
It is due the occasion to relate the follow
ing incident: The day before . the battle, the
army was impeded in its march by the de
struction of a bridge across the branch. of the
Thames, np which it was moving, at or near
the mouth of the branch. Col. Johnson had
been ordered to .cross this stream at some
mills two or three miles above the mouth .
The, road led him by the bridge. A portion
of his regiment had a brush with a party of
Indians, posted in cabins, on the opposite side
of the Thames and the branch, and also under
the thick covert along the banks, to dispute
the passage of the stream, and harrass all at.
tempt to repair the bridge. As soon as the
firing was heard, the General, hurried to the
scene of action, accompanied by a portion of
his family, of which Comrnsdore Perry was
one. When I arrived I found Gen. Harrison,
Commodore Peir!y, and other officers, (I
think Gen. Cass was one,) in an open piece
of around - near the bridge. Cu). Johnson
had passed, and a small portion of his regi
ment, previously dismounted. under the com
mand of Capt. Benjamin WArfield, and borne
infantry which had hurried-up, were carrying
on the skirmish. Maj. Wood had been.or
dered up with a small piece 'of artillery.
Commodore Perry urged Gen. Harrison to
withdraw, as he was too much exposed for
the commander in-chief. If 1 mistake not,
Gen: Cass united with the Commodore, and
offered to remain and see his orders executed.
The General: with Perry, and the rest of his
suit, started oti;: but Gen. Harrison went but
a few steps and returned, and retained his
position near the cannon, until the Indians
were dislodged and driven, the bridge repair
ed, and 'the army put in- motion to cross.
During the whole time he was as much
more exposed than the soldiers, being on
horseback all the while. The Commodore
afterwards remonstrated with him against
this unnecessary exposure, observing ,• that
in open Sea ho could stand tire tolerably well;
but there was no fun in being shot at by a
concealed enemy."
The General . . .justified his conduct by say.
ing the general who commands Republican
volunteers, in whoge ranks the best blood of
the country is to be found, must never think
of his own safety, at least mail his troops be
come familiar ivith his disregard of personal
danger.,"; Hardftiood itself has never denied
Perry's courage.—Chambers and Todd, of
Kentucky, and O'Fallen, of MiSsouri, the
other Aids of General - Harrison at the battle
of the Theme, are' still living, and can giie
you additional fade, if required..

In TROIKAS HATRES
Youth, thoughtless and 'inexpi4lenecd, sees in the
oddities of a s:t•enf r ,er nought bUtfood for ridicule ;
but some little bier/ledge of the'sforld and its vicis
situdes teaches a man'tiffeeling!td regard with mel
ancholly the eccentricities of ohtigo Sorrow often
leaves fanialltic l:accs of her fatal iisifs,'and the p'-
culiaritiesi which excit 9 mirth ore .!tc yuehtly the indi
cations of a bewildered mind, ar i l of a broken herl,
which hey done with miithiforeier.
Having business to tie asact in the city, I once re
mained for a few days at the much ;repented hotel
where the coach stopped which conveyed ma to Lon
don. The old- fashioned coffee-roam wee still fitted up
with those compartments or boxes; which, though ex
pelled from hotels of more recent construction, se
cure to the traveller some little, feeling of seclusion'
and independence ; and I in mine, to the right of a
fire-place, having finished my late dinner, sat endeav
oring to take an interest in a tiewspaper, which I
had already sifted to is last aditertisernent. On the
opposttion side of the fire, in the titivate box corre.s.
pending with mine, sat arkotherisolitary; persan.. He
was tall oud meagre, his countenance pole; his hair.
thin, and perfectly grey; liivr ago I should have gurss
,dto he between sixty and seventy. My attention
was attracte 1 towards him by this wild and painful
express'em of his law clear light-blue eyes.
His movements were so quiek : and eccentric, that
it was w ith difficulty that I cinAld conceal my risibili
ty ;to restrain it was beyond my power. I had not
then been taught the forbearannewhidh I would new
suggest to others.
I still held my newspaper before Me, pretending
to be occupied with it-, columns: bur ,all the time I
cast furtive glances at my neighbor, unable to
-ac
count for his extraord ; no , y gesture For some n'
he would clusir his forehead with both hands,
then he would start as if struck with! a sudden recol
lection, and look around anxiously from side to.aide,
until with a deep sigh-he relapSed ultd his fotmerspo
sition, or feint his brow disconsolately on the table
before him; again ho would look up, and with a
stare of vacancy tix his eyes on me I pretended to
he unconscious of his scrutiny. Indel , d, though his'
glances rested on my person, I doubt whether he was
aware of my presence. Thrn something like a glim
mering of intelligence passed over his wan counte
nance, and, half conscious' that his manner had at
tracted observation, he assumed ah attitude and de
mean or of composure. Thoughtless as I then was,
the effort of an insane person to Conceal hiS malady
was inexpressible strecting. I had laughed at his
eccentricities,—l could have wept at hie ineffectual
endeavor to conceal them.
Suddenly he exclaimed, “Lost,—lost" and com
menced an eagre search for something. He looked
anxiously round the boxl in which his table was'
placed, and then rose, and with hurried steps paced
the room, peeping into every cerner where it was at
all likelY , any thing could be concealed. At length
his attention was turned to me, and approaching me
in haste, he said,"Si', I' beg your I pardon—l have
lost—myself.—Have you seen me any wheresl I
am anxious—miserable--" and then he darted ab- •
ruptly iom me, looked tinder the seats and behind
the curtains, shook- his head despondingly after each •
disappointment, and finally le.c the room.
The wei'lr informedine that, 'trough occasionally! .
susiect to wanderings similar to that!' had witnessek.„ .
the gentlemen was generally perfectly tranquil and .
in his rif,,ht, mind., He knew little ; of him, except
that he had been a lieutenant , in the navy. I soon"
reared to my own room, and am inot ashamed to •
confess that the recollection of the 'strangor r hept me
long from slumber, and haunted mr pillow when at •
length I fell asl - :.:1p. •
