GEN.'CUfelll TO HIE TEOI'LE OF
H.ORIDA.
I Conrlui'ttJ )
Knoxville, Tcnn. Sepl. 0.1837.
Dear (itrteral Your loner of the Otli ult.
h«a but jutl leached me, ami I haste . to reply
by the first mail.
Vow «ak me to rtatc the length of time that
1 have known you, my opinion of ymir quali.
firations awl services an a commaiulcr, panic
ulaily in reference lo ilic pan you bore in the
commencement of Ilic present war w.tli lire
Beinin«lcs{ whether in the many conversa
tions between ll -, in Florida, you did not often
state the motives ami reasons which would
compel y.ni to resign at llie end of the cam
paign, in which wo were then engaged, and
whether those motives snd reasons were
not considered by me as amply sufficient.
You conclude by say.ng that you may find it
necessary to publish my reply in defence of
your character against the attacks of your
enemies.
After an intimate a> quaintince with you of
more than twenty eight years, and tlie per
suasion that you have never said or done
slight which could justly give offence to an
honorable man, I can hardly bring myself to
believe it necessary to reply to your enquiries,
not having seen cither of the attacks to which
you allude.
To the high character and value of your
services, generally, and particularly in Flori
da, i hose on innumerable private, and sever
al pnbhc and solemn occasions borne my hum
ble, but hearty testimony. Thus in my report
•o government. Hated “Tampa Bay, April I'd;
1836," I said «l you :— * He throughout the
•march comma tided hut column with judgment
snd ability and at the principal combat fin Ihe
acre.] bravely dismounted and followed his
troops above tho knees, (1 ought to have said,
teaisi) in mud. In the rep irl of Miy 11th, I
said “the resignation of Brigadier General.
Clinch, was forwarded a week ago. Tho ar- 1
my will lose in this officer one of its bo<-t
-commanders." Wo in >ny address In Ihe Court
of Enquiry at Frederick, Maryland, speaking
•of my being oidcred to supersede you in the
command in Florida, against sup private
wishes, I told the Court that, “< had moreo
ver, the highest confidence in the judg
ment and abilities of (Jen. Clinch,independent
of Ins belter knowledge of Florida ami
of tho enemy to be combatted." Aud again,
upon llte occasion of reading one of my let
ters to the same Court, I rose and said -*f am
stoic iharoughly persuaded that ihe decision of
•4 ien ,Clinch,(in respect to sending to'he block
house, o:l the WithlacnnciiCU, succor from
Fort Drane,) was correct, ami in fact Mr. /’re
sident, it is extremely difficult to dijj'ar in
ofiinionfrom that officer, in the field without .
■•afterwards finding reason to suspect one's self
in Ihe wrung, and so it happened lo meiin this
• case."
Fr« m llte lime lint wo mot nI Pori Prado
• vtp tnmir separation at Tampa Bay, your ro
'■iirciticni lo oiviHifo was a frequent subject of
■cou versa lion in our privaio mid confidential
intercourse. You not only fell yourself ag
grieved by the con tout of tho War Depart
inisnt towards you, hul you gavo mo personal
■ lid family reasons which, in your opinion,
would compel you to embrace tho eurlteal
occasion (or resigning your comndeeiwn.
I heard your determination with deep re.
grel, hut could not lind it in my heart In np-|
.poae tliat determination. It was every t.ay
founded on reasons solid mid sufficient. Ac
cordingly yon took the opportunity of the ter
mination of active duties tor the season (ear
Jy in M iy.) and sent your resignation through
me, lo the War Department. In my opinion
you wore then perfectly at liberty to lake Ibal
Step, both in respect to honor and patriotism,
and i have already said (hat your duties lo
yourself and family, independent of wound
ed pride, lo!t you no o her course to pursue.
Wishing you all honor and happiness,
My dear General, 1 remain truly your’s,
WINFIELD SCOTT.

Jacksonvili-h, Sept. 25., 1837
Dear Sir In answer lo your enquiry in
a letter of the Dili, in*t. I have ihe honor to
•talc, that on the 21. of Dec. 1833, you call
ed on mo to raise one hundred mounted vol
unteers, lo proceed lo Iho dofuiico of Ma
dina frontier : To this cull 1 proceeded lo
respond, but on the 3th Dee. received mi or
der from Brigadier General //ernandez, to
arm and put in motion my entire regiment,
and to proceed with two hundred mounted
.men and to report to you for sorviuo, leaving
.the others on posts to protect oar own mime
-diato .front «r.
At iVowii insvillo a Cow days after, on your
way lo Fort Prane, you called on the citi
zens of .Madina, Columbia and Hamili"ii
Counties, to raise one hundred aud filly
mounted volunteers, let the same purpose
which was promptly responded k*. 1 took
up thn hue of march on tlieOlh of December
w th the iroups u> join you at Wotumko, ti.c
(dace us reudi'Cvuus.uua on the 12ih, received
an ord'T by express from General Hernandez,
to t«kb Newnansvillo in my route and to call
on C'd. 8 inches, cominaim.ng '.he <> h Itegi.
ment F.’.M , for a hundred mine men, which
I did. This quo's was promptly furnished,
■nd more even than was ca led lor. On the
15th of December, I marched from Newnans
vnle, and some orgamza.ion, and arraiigcmcnl
being necessary, a halt was made at Fort
Crum. On Iho night of Iho 10.lt, 1 received
orders from you dated al Fort Dr me, to pro
ceed and scour out the Haium .cka in and
about Wscaliouia ; on the 17lii, hearing that
soiiio depredations had been committed in
(be Orange Lake settlement, a detachment
was sent in that di.action, on the 18th, I
proceeded w-th the main body lo execute
Jour order, and on arriving at Kanapuliaw
’rairie, finding Indian trails 1 pursued them
null a detachment, and ordered Lt. Col. Mi.la
to proceed to Wacahoola with the mam body.
Finding it necessary in consequence of Indi
an demonstration in our rear lo commence ■
new line of operation, Lt. Col. Mills was or
dered back to the origins', encampment at
Fort Crum. On tho 19. h December Gen
Call, came to my encampment with a regi
ment under ih* command ol Col. II C. I’arnsli
■nd published an order from G. K. Walker,
Secretary, then acting governor of Florida,
placing hini m command of all tho Florida
troops in tho fie d. For throe er lour days,
previous to this it had been reported that Gen.
Call was an In wsy east with troops : but
tbs troops of Gen. Hernandez brigade wore
raised, organ zed and led to the held, without
any aguicy of any person except their own
proper officers, baaed first on Gen. Hernandez
order of 19th N ov. 1835, n-qu rng the brigade
(o be organized aud held in readiness in ,uti
cipalion of hostilities (which entry permit m
East Florida had lung anticipated (and sec
ond, from your requisition tor troops, and Gen.
lie nandez order consequent thereon. On
Die2l SI Dec. we marched lo Hagnu’s where
ive had a skirmish with a few Indians, and
where you arrived t o same evening and had
*u interview with Gjm. Call.
On the 23d we lock up the I ne of march
to Fort Draue. From that post tlie troops
under your command, on the 28tli or 29th,
look up the line of march to the Ouithlacoo
chw, reaching that river about sunrise on
the munii ig ol ili«3lsl. We found an Indian
canoe eepable of carrying eight men. iu which
you ordered the regulars lo commence cross
ing the over. About 10 o'clock Gen. Call,
came to me and told me that some ot my men
wew deserting, and that 1 bad better go and
all£n<i w them 1 rode out and enquired of
the different Captain* and found that they
• not my nioli, but 'hr volunteers frorti
Middle Florida; about 23 or .Ml of whom had
i Lraly gone. I returned and to dil a get c •
■I that li.cy were not my men, but tlie volun
teers from M dd e F.otida, and unless atten
ded to, that a great many more would go.
, Gen. Cal, then went Io look after the men,
I and in a short time returned to the river.
I requested of you to permit me 'o cross
l my regiment, and yon told me to do an as
quick aa I pleased, and 1 gave an order for
them to make rails lo cross their baggage
’ and saddles over, which was immediately
' done. Between twelve and one o’clock, at
' ter the regulars under the command of
p I»t. Colonel Fanning, and twenty five or
thirty of my men, together with niyatlf L*.
Col. Mills, Maj. Cooper and Adjutant i’hill,pa,
with a part of the arms, accuutrcmeina and
horses us my regiment, had created the river,
Ihe Indians commenced their attack on tlie
regulars, or right wing. You, who were en
gaged in superintending the erection ot a
, bridge, mounted your horse and rode with
speed to live scene ol action. Soon after sc
. veral Indians made their appearance on the
left, and fired across the river. Aa quickly
aa possible I formed what few men I had
across the river, and charged upon them in
the swamp and drove them back. The
1 Indiana gave way and disappeared. The
firing on the tight was heavy, which
wing tho regulars occupied. I then for
med i, y men and marched up to the
left of the regulars and joined them in| a
charge which finally routed tho Indiana.
When I arrived on the left of the regu'ars. I
■aw you in the act us dismounting from your
wounded horse, and you continued to give
orders, leading your men to the charge on foot,
coiidaciing the charge and giv ng orders, in a
cool and ufficcr-hko manner. As soon as 1 had
an opportunity to speak to yon,/ observed that
some of my men were badly wounded, as well
as myself, and enquired what I should do with
them. You replied that I meat lake lliem back
lo tbe river, where (key would be examined by
a surgeon. When I had gone about half way
lo the river with the wounded men, I mol
General Call coming up who liwd just crossed
the river. As soon as 1 arrived at tho river I
proceeded (o cross myself and men. f en
quired of the remaining part of my regi
in- nt why iliey did not cross, and come to our
assistance, and they replied that they were
prevented from crossing by Col, Parish, who
staled it was by Ihe order or Gov. Call, aud
but for that order, they could ami would have
crossed.
I cannot say any thing further native tu
the recrossing of the troops, I being wounded
ami not able to attcuil to duty.
I am, D.rar General, with great respect,
your obedient servant,
*OIW WARREN.
VVxniifHa.ToN Citv, Oct. 1, 1837.
Dear General:—l have received yotif let
ter and shall endeavor to rs» j to ,i.
Our coitnnntid reached ihe Withlacoochec
river o:i the morning of the 3lsl Dec. 1835,
just after day break, ami upon finding that
Ihe guide had missed the ford, two men of
Oapt. Mellon’s conipimyjCd Artillery, private*
Duiinuitan 'and -- ——- swam across the
stream and brought hack to the north side u
cnanoc, In which the men wore'crossed 7 or
Bat a tune. After n groat portion-of the
battalion of Regulars hud crossed, Col. Fim
ning was directed to move up lo same dry
ground, from whence he cmtld protort the
landing. Upon arriving with my command
(il being tho 101 l Hank company,) I found the
battalion formed—tlie men at rest. After re
maining about two boors, 1 heard Hie words
"fall in. fall in,’’ repealed several limes in a
loud voice, by the officer of the day, Capt.
Mellon. The sentinels having been placed
some distance in the hammock, on discover
ing Indians called to the Corporal of the
guard and gave the information. The corpo
ral approached but disbelieved tho sentinel.
He was again called, and again repeated his
disbelief. The third time he was satisfied
that there were Indians and ran in and gave
the alarm to Capt. Mellon, the officer of the
day. The battalion being instantly an the
alert, by order ol Col. Fanning, Capt, Mellon
asked permission of the Colonel to lire at two
Indians, whom he discovered in the ham
mock. Permission was granted—Mellon
tired, which drew the fire from the whole In
dian line, wlnuh was returned by the battul-
Several minutes however having elaps
ed between (lie alarm au« Jko li's( discharge
of a gun. Col. Fanning then ordered a
charge of battalion, which was made to the
hammock, when the men fell back m conse
quence of the word retire having been given
by some one unknown ; at this time you arri
ved, and discovering some l.ttle confusion of
the men in double ranks gave orders to extend
the lino aud charge the enemy, which was
done.
As I was about leading my company with
the battalion in the hammock, 1 discovered
private Unlliii ofmy company passing in the
rear ol tho company, and proceeding towards
the left. Upon enquiring what ho meant, he
informed mo that a party ol Indians was post
ed in ;tho hammock, still further to the left,
who were shooting down out men. 1 imme
diately took a part of the company and ran
with it down the left into (ho hammock and
drove the Indians, which was their nghi flank,
■ I which pouit private Montgomery was killed
& I ruceivedmy second wouin'.when thu'ii.tng
ceased and the whole of tho Indians retired.
—ln going from the right of the company lo
the point where the Indians were, I passed
Col. NVarrenand his volunteer.-, advancing lo
the hammock.
During the action the enemy attempted to
turn out right, when the two companies com
manded by Capts. Gates and Mol.on, were
detached lo meet them, when they were pur
sued by those officers and driven oft'.
I was utterly surprised that your conduct
on that day mould be questioned. You ex
posed yourself from the momoi.t you arrived
(a few minutes after the action cummenced(
to a moat galling tiro from the enemy, in en
deavoring lo throw the men into single file
and extending the lino and in giving encour
agement and good heart to the men, through
out the day And I really believe that if it
had not been for your presence and exertions,
the wcoloof iho battalion would have been cut
up and destroyed, together with all the volun
ters who had cross' d—this would have em
boldened the Indians, who no doubt would
thcr have crossed the river aud sacrificed the
whole of Gen. Call's command. Just after
the close of the actio i, 1 heard Gen. Call ad
dress you in my rear; at that time you were
on horseback. He was not exposed dunng
the action. Col. Pansli inforn cd me that he
had ordered It s men to cross, and eight nr ten
of them had actually plunged into swim the
river, when Gen. Call gave a positive order to
the volunteers nut to cross, but lo form a line
to receive the enemy on the north side ot the
river. Capt. Sutnerlm of East Florida,sever
al tunes told me, that he had ordered and pre
pared lo cross his company lo your assis
tance, when his order was positively coun
termanded, and he directed to form li » com
pany with Col, Parish's command; Maxey
Dell, who was tho first man to swim the river
on horseback, told me that he recrossed the
river to get his gun and was about returning
to the south side of the river, when he was
prevented by Gen. Call. 1 behove that the
mourned volunteers could have been crossed
by (Jen. Call,by swimming their horses. As an
i evidence ufi he r practicability to do so, Lieut.
Uenjvmu , Maxey Doll, Col, John H. Mein
- lush and Maj. Juim S. Lytle swam iheir but*
ses over the river m the early part of Hie day.
| You had every attention pmi to ihe woun
ded that could have boon, and youreelf visited
Jeteh wounded wan, to see that he had such
4 n»Ul)i e° a* could be given Icni on ihcfichl.

year, would pay the annual interest of 5 per cent
on its cost. Wo (have since learned that after
doing this it will leave a surplus of #IO,OO0 —a
sum sufficient to pay the interest upon #200,000
in ore than its cost. Next year it is probable that
iho ,‘olls will exceed those of the last yeat one
half th’dr amount.

Besides the above, the following have been ap

Mr. McGuigan of Philadelphia, as Taxidermist; |

We ate much gratified to learn that the scion. I
tific corps had been organized as a strictly tem - ‘
perance body. The members have thus volunlt,
rily assumed a noble position, which will doubt
less lend to conliibute much to the success of this
groat national enterprise. It imparls a moral as
well as intellectual dignity lo that body and ,
presages the most happy results.
