DEFERRED APTICIJI.S.
Extract of a letterfrom Acijuiast Gen
eral Newtian to the Editors of the
Journal , dated Chataiioquuj r.,
3d December , 1813.
“ Ccntlemen —The army has re
turned to this place, after an ab
feuce of (even days, during which
it marched one hundred and twenty
miles fought a battle with the Indi
ans afifembled from five towns at the
Autoffte Village on the Tallupoofk,
and killed about two hundred.-
The Taltail'ee or fame King, and
the King of the Autoflees were
among the flainj the towns were
burnt and all their property f*which
was considerable J deflroyed—Be
ing apprised of our approach, their
women and children were conveyed
to a place of I’afety before the battle
fairly commenced, and confequcnt
ly none of them were taken. The
Indians fought with delpiration, and
retired fignting from the held of ac
tion. We had eleven k.IL.J and
.74 wounded, mod of them (Tightly.
Presuming a full and detailed ac
count from General Floyd [who
atted with the greeted: bravery 7
will soon be pubiifl.ed, 1 deem it
unnccefiary to uncr into a farther
detail.”
O’ In the late battle wirh th? In
dians Gen. Floyd received a dan
gerous wound in the kr.ee from a
musket ball, early in the action, and
continued on horseback til! the bat
tle was decided. He was brought
to Charahoochie on a litter. Should
the Surgeons be able to prevent
fpalins it is hoped he may recover.
The ball was not extracted when
captain B~rton left Camp. It i.
the opinion o* captain Barton that
from two to three hundred Indian
were killed, and the friendly Indi
ans judged the number of holtile
warriors at not less than 1.700.

Having learned on the 7th that the
enemy had aflembled in considera
ble strength about 30 miles below
me, tor the purpoio of destroying
Telladega (a tort of the friendly In
dians) and then of attacking toy
army, I set out immediately to the
relief of that place, with 1200 in
fantry and 800 cavaly. and on the
evening of the Bth amved within 1
miles of them—Having recommen
ced my march very early on the
ensuing morning, we came up to
the enemy (whom we found to be
encamped within a quarter us a mile
ot the fort) by hall an hour by fun.
The engagement commenced, and
in a fliui t time terminated in their
entire defeat.—299 of the enemy
were found dead on the ground, i !
it is since well al'certained that this
falls lhort of the number really kil
led. Our lol's was 1.5 killed, and
87 wounded, three cf whom have
