BATTLE OF TIPPECANOE.
The following account of toe battle of Tippe
canoe is copied from M‘Alley’s history of the
late war. This battle may be properly con
sidered the commencement of the late War, as
that of Bunker’s Hill has been considered the
commencement of the revolution.
“Oil the ev ning of the 5;h November, the
army encamped at the distance of nine or ten
miles from ibe prophet’s town. It wasascertain-
ed that the approach of the army had been dis
covered before it reached Pine creek. The
traces of reconnoitring parties were very of
ten seen, but no Indians were discovered until
the troops arrived within live or six miles of the
town on the 6th November.—The interpreters
were t'e.i placed with l ie advanced guard to
endeavor to open communication with them.—
The Indians would, however, return no answer
to the invitations that were made to them for
that purpose, but continued to insult our people
bv their gestures. Within about tiiree miles of
the town, the ground became broken by ravines
and covered with timber. The utmost pre
caution became necessary, and every difficult
pass was examined by the mounted riflemen
before the army was permitted to enter it.
The ground being unfit for the operation of the
squadron of dragoons they were thrown in the
rear. Through the whole march, the precaution
had been used of changing the disposition of the |
d'tferent crops phat each might have the'ground j
best suited to its operations Within about j
two miles of the town the path descended a |
steep hill, at the bottom of which was a small ;
creek running through a smali wet prairie and j
