the action took place we are unable to state, as

to find that Col. Ilnllowes who was recently
wounded by the Indians, is completely out of
danger, unit has arrived here, to the relief of his
numerous friends.

As the escort under Capt. Ashby, who had
been engaged in evacuating Fort Draue was
proceeding to Micnnopy, and hail arrived with
in m mile of the latter place, it was attacked by
a party of Indians, supposed to number from
130 to 200, who kept up a brisk and constant
fire upon the 50 men composing the escort for
upwnrds of an hour, w hen the Indians retired.
The firing was heard at micnnopy, and adetneh-

“ ll is often said by the Van Bureuitet, that the
friends nf Judge White, are desirous of carrying I lie
election of president In the Hnnso of Representa
tives. This is untrue, for it’ they had nu oilier inn*
tivofnr deprecating such nil e*’ent, policy would
certainly dictate In them that they should avoid,
if possible, an election by the House. What chance
would such n man as judge White have—open,
straight-forward nod independent as he is—Rgainst
the mantuvres and intrigues of Mr. Van Huron, who
is better at apolitical bargain than any man in the
United States I Nu.no, .lodge White depends up
on the people fur his election, convinced that their
decision will he produced by non* but honest and
patriotic motives."

Sir—On the 25th June, I received orders from
Gen. Scott, und left Ronnoke in pursuit of n body of
Indians, who bail crossed llie Chattahoochee, at
tempting, ns supposed, to make their escape to Flo
rida. My command consisted of the Monroe troop,
(’apt. Flowollen, a part of the Talbot troop, under
I.ient, Irby, a part of the Upson troop, under Lieut.
Stephens, and the Bibb cavalry, under Capt. Mc
Call. Some four or five miles below Ron noli

officer who might be there. On the 2d July, 1 ar

ing marched nearly all night. for the purpose of ren-
derifignll possible aid to Col. Beall, who I under-
stood designed going into the Cliicknsaliatcheo
Nwnmp on the 2d, to give battle to the enemy. Not
being able to ascertain the position of Col. Beall,
mul having understood that forces were placed to
cut off the retreat of the Indians at all tin* most im
portant points, except opposite Camp Beall, I ac
cordingly hastened to tiiat point, and proceeded
near the old Initio ground, whore I remained until
satisfied that the enemy would not attempt a retreat
in that dircctin i, I left the Hwnmp between 3 and 4
o’clock l*. IM.nnd was informed by two gentlemen

the remark to the Episcopal denomination,) felt, n

on Tuesday morning last, having been honora
bly discharged at Columbus, the Friday previ
ous.
They wero welcomed by many n glad face,
and hearty shake of the hand. They hear evi
dent marks of having seen service, and that not
not of the easiest kind ; hut we are glad to learn
gitives were killing the inhabitants of Baker county,
contented liiinself in sending thirty men to their
assistance, instead of marching with bis w Inde force,
about oik* hundred and fifty men.” This statement
is ud warranted by the fact*, unjust, ungenerous, mid
unwise. Gen. Scott was in too great a burry to cast
the blame of tin* escape of tbe runaway Indian* up
on some one. There is evidently a want of respon
sibility exhibited in tbe despatch of the 2d July, and
the blame could not liuve fallen upon nn officer
and commander more undeserving ol it Ilian Col.
J'eall and bis detachment.
We nre pleased, however, to find thntGen. Scott
himself ha* done justice to Col. Beall and tbe de
tachment under hi* command, by correcting the
above unjustifiable censure. In a letter of tho 4tli
July, txvo day* after the date of the other, lie says,
“ By a singular mistake I xvn* led. by a letter sup-
pnaed to be ftom this officer. (Col. Bea.l,) hut which
xvn* written hv another, to do him (Col. Beall) great
last report of events in this quarter

some other Swnmp in Georgia. Seven ponies and
horses were taken from the Indians on the day of
battle, 31) subsequently found in scouring tin* swamp;
several ol the horses were claimed and taken oft’by
their owners ; the balance, with tlm ponies taken,
were carried oft*by individual* who were not in the
battle (without my knowledge) nor under my com
mand. On the arrival of mv command near the
I Swnmp, it was joined by Mu* Early troop under Capt.
\ Holmes, ibo Thomas troop under Capt. Newman, j ^ f , 0||1
| and 24 of the Baker troop, who formed a portion of ; q-|,,. f’ (M
advance guard, all of which participated in the bnt-
[ tie, and well sustained their character as citizens
and soldiers.
I cannot, in justice, close this report, without
bringing to your especial notice the gallant depot t-
mentof Maj. Bush, Adjutant T. Holland, Surgeon
Mills, Hergt Maj. Gibson. Capts. Jernigan. McCall,
Flewellen, Holmes and Newman, Lieut*. Stephens
and Jrhv,during the engagement, wli'cli justly enti
tles them to tlm names of officers nml soldiers.
Maj. John II. Howard and James G. Salisberry at
tached themselves as volunteers to Capt. Jernigan’s
company far tlm occasion, and fought with tlm ut
most bravery nml determination during tlm battle.
In short, the character of’ patriots and soldiers was
never better sustained in tbe battle-field, than by
both the officer* and privates under my command
during the engagement.

The experiment appeared to Im successful,

if the power of the FTigine was increased to the
