HORRORS O? BATTLE.
The battle took place on the margin of the
Niagara river, an extensive plain, which had
once been covered with fine farms : but now,
forsaken by the inhabitants, and desolated by
war, it exhibited only a barren waste. The riv
er at that place begins to acquire some of that
terrific velocity, with which it rushes over the
awful precipice three miles below, creating one
of the grandest natural curiosities in existence ;
the noise of the cataract is heard, and the column
of foam distinctly seen, from the battle ground.
On the other side, the field is bounded by a
thick forest, but the plain itself presents a level,
smooth surface, unbroken by ravines, and with
out a tree or bush to intercept the view, or an
obstacle to impede the movements of the hostile
bodies, or to afford to either party an advantage.
From this plain the American camp wassepara r
ted by a small creek. In the full glare of the
summer sun on the morning of the sth of July,
the British troops were seen advancing to our
camp, across the destined field of strife; their
waving plumes, their scarlet uniforms, and gil
ded ornaments, exhibited a gay and gorgeous
appearance. Their martial music, their firm
and rapid step, indicating elastic hopes and high
courage. The Americans, inferior in number,
were easily put in motion to meet the advancing
foe; they crossed a small rude bridge, the only
outlet from the camp, under a heavy fire of the
enemy’s-artillery: and moved steadily to the
spot selected for the engagement. The scene at
this moment was beautiful and imposing. The
British line, glowing with crimson hues, was
streched across the plain, flanked by pieces of
brass ordnance, whose rapid discharge spread
death over the field, and filled *he air with
'thunder; while the clouds of smoke enveloped
each extremity of the line, left the centre only
exposed to the eye, and expending on to the riv
er on the one hand, and the forest on the other,
filled the whole back ground of the landscape.
The Americans were advancing in columns.
There were new recruits, now led for the first
time into action ; and except a few officers, none
-of that heroic band, had ever before seen the
banner of a foe. But they moved steadily to
their ground, unbroken by the galling fire; and
platoon after platoon wheeled into line with the
same graceful accuracy of movement which
marks the evolutions of the holiday parade, until
the whole column was deployed into one exten
ded front; the officers carefully dresssed the line
with technical skill., and the whole brigade evin
cing in its deep silence, and the faithful precision
of its movements, the subordination of strict dis
cipline, and the steady firmness of determined
courage. Now the musketry of the enemy be
gan to rattle, pouring bullets as thick as hail
upon our ranks. Still not a trigger was drawn,
not a voice was heard on our side, save the strict
peremptory tones of command. Gen. Scolt,
rode along the line, cheering and restraining
his troops; then passed from flank to flank, to
see if all was as he wished; he wheeled his steed
into the rear of the troops, and gave the com
mand “to fire.” A voice was immediately heard
in the British ranks—supposed to be that of their
commander—exclaiming, “charge the Yankees,
the Buffalo militia ! charge!” The American
General ordered his men, “support arms.”
The British rushed forward with bayonets
charged, but they were struck with amazement
when they beheld those whom their commander
tauntingly called militia, standing motionless as
statues ; their muskets erect, their arms folded
across their breasts, gazing calmly at their hos
tile ranks advancing furiously with levelled bay
onets. It was a refinement of discipline rarely
exhibited, and here altogether unexpected.
The Americans stood until the enemy approach
ed within a few paces ; until the foemen could
seethe fire flashing from each other’s eyes;
and each could read the expression of his ad
versary’s face; then deliberately as was the
word given, the Americans levelled their pieces
\ -and fired—and the whole of the enemy’s line
seemed annihilated ! —Many were killed, many
wounded, and some rushing forward with pow
erful momentum, fell over their prostrate com
panions ; or were thrown down by the weight
of succeeding combatants. In one instant the
ground occupied bv that gallant line was cover
ed by flying Britons ; in another, a second line
had advanced to sustain the contest; while the
broken fragments of the first, were rallied be
hind it. The “ Buffaloe militia” were now the
assailants, advancing with charged bayonets.
Then it was that the young American chiefs,
who led that gallant host, displayed the skill of
veterans; and the names of Scott, Jessup, Lea
venworth, McNeil, and Hinman, were given to
their country to adorn the proudest page of its
history. Five and thirty minutes decided the
•contest, and the retiring foe was pursued and
driven to its fortress. None who saw, will for
get the terrific beauty of this scene ; the noble
appearance of the troops—the dreadful preci
sion of every movement—the awful fury of the
i battle—its fatal severity—its brief continuance
—its triumphant close.
As the victors returned from the pursuit of
the retiring enemy, a scene of intense interest
was presented. They traversed the field which
• a few minutes before had sparkled with the
proud equipage of war. There had been gal
lant men and gay uniforms and waving banners,
and there had been drums and trumpets, and the
i wild notes of the bugle stirring the soul to ac
f tion. There had been nodding plumes and
r beating hearts, and eyes that gleamed with am
bition.
• There too had been tempesluous chiefs, emu
s lous of fame, dashing their fiery steeds along the
’ hostile ranks ; and there had been all the spirit
- stirring sights and sounds that fill the eye and
the ear, and the heart of the young warrior, giv
r ing more than the poet’s fire to the entranced
■ imagination. What a change had a few brief
minutes produced ! Now the field was strewed
with ghastly and disfigured forms, with the
wounded, with the mutilated and the dying. The
• ear was filled with strange and melancholy and
terrific sounds ; the shouts of victory had given
place to groans of anguish, the complaints of the
vanquished ,the prayers or the imprecations of the
dying. Here was one who called upon heaven
to protect his children ; another raved of a be
reaved wife ; a third tenderly aspired a beloved
name, consecrated only by that tie—while others
deprecated their own suffering or pleaded pite
ously for the pardon of their sins. Here were
those who prayed ardently for death, and some
who implored a few minutes more of life. Com
plaints of Jpodily pain ; and confession of un
repented crimes, burst forth from the souls of
many in heart rending accents ; while some as
they gazed upon the fast flowing crimson torrent,
wasted the brief remains of breath in moraliz
ing upon the shortness of life, and man’s careless j
prodigality of existence.
Many gallant spirits there were on that en
sanguined plain, who prayed ; and some
who daredgiot pray, and yet scorned to murmur.
Their compressed lips bespoke their firmness;
their eyes wandered wistfully over the bright
scene that was fading before them, and they
grasped fervently the hands of those who bade
them farewell.

ADDRESS
To Parents ansi Teachers.
A MONG the numerous cheap publications of the
xjIL day, none has been offered to that numerous class
of society who most need instruction and amusement ;
and, with your approval and assistance, the publisher of
“ The Youth’s Literary Gazette,” proposes to furnish
a year’s reading at the ordinary cost of two small vol
umes.
It is well known, that even among the wealthy, many
parents hesitate to lay out a dollar, seventy-five, or even
fifty cents, for a volume that is exhausted in an eve
ning; while a still more numerous class are entirely de
barred by the price from purchasing useful and agreea
ble books for their children.
S The Gazette will contain as much good, useful, and
interesting matter as would form twelve of the usual
sized volumes for children. The articles will be adapt
ed to all ages from sto 15 years. It will thus pass from
hand to hand in the family circle, and the mother will
find amusement in what she is called upon to explain to
her children.
To instruct and entertain, to create a desire for in
formation, and lead youthful mind to a fondness for stu
dy, will be the object of the work. Its pages will bo
devoted to—
1. Travels and Voyages.
2. Familiar Tales and Narratives.
3. Dialogues on Scientific subjects.
4. Biography and Natural History.
5. Notices of all new Works for Children.
6. Interesting Historical Anecdotes.
7 Charades, Conundrums, and Puzzles.
The assistance of most of the writers for children is
promised; each No. will contain one, two, or three
wood cuts, illustrative of different subjects ; and every
exertion will be made to make the work interesting.

’ rgSp WHEREAS the Trustees
«'• - ffCj of the Academy of Richmond County, hav<
given notice that they will lease the South Common or
the first Tuesday in February inst. and whereas the saic
S. Common is of right the property of the city ot Augusta
& has not been leased for enclosure or cultivation but wirl
the consent of the citizens of Augusta, and by specia
Legislative enactment, neither of which has been obtain
ed to authorize the enclosure or cultivation of said com
mon.
And whereas the City Council believe that the en
closure and cultivation of the Said South common wil
prove injurious to the health of the citizens generally.
Sec. i st. Ee it therefore ordained by the City Council
of Augusta, that it shall not be lawful for any person or
persons to make any fence or enclosure by ditch or other
wise in any part of the common of Augusta,
Watkins Street.
Sec. 2. And be it further ordained, that any person
who shall make any enclosure or part of enclosure un
der any pretence or in any manner or form whatsoever,
shall be fined in a sum not exceeding one hundred dol
lars, for each and every day such enclosure, part of en
closure, fence or obstruction shall remain.
Sec. 3. And be it further ordained, that each & every
fence, ditch, enclosure, part of enclosure or obstruction,
shall he considered a nuisance and it shall be the duty ol
the city Marshall and all other officers of council, to
abate such nuisance, by removing any fence or other ob
structions made or found on any part of the said common
South of Watkins Street.
Done in Council the 2d day of Feb. 1833.

Geo. M. Walker. Clerk.
TO TIE PUBLIC.
controversy between the City, and the Trus-
JSL tees of the Academy, having become one of some
interest to the citizens, the City Council have deemed it
advisable to give this short notice to the public, of their
reasons for the above Ordinance, and the necessity which
called for it.
The City Council have been advised and believed,
that when Augusta was laid out and planned by the pro
prietory government, the common was defined and ap
pended to the town, for the common benefit of the lot
holders, and citizens, as the word “ town common,” itself
seems to import.
That being thus appropriated to the public, or com
mon use of the citizens, this right has never been taken
from them by the legislature, or abandoned by them
selves. Nor has any aot been passed interfering with
the right of common in the citizens, except at their own
request, or for their supposed benefit.
That the power to lease given to the trustees, was to
lease for seven years, and has long since expired, and,
being th°n given to promote the health of the city, at the
request of the citizens, should not now he exercised,
when experience has shewn, that the enclosure would
most probably be injurious to the health of the city, and
is therefore opposed to the wishes of the citizens.
That tire City Council, have not abandoned the rights
of the citizens by paying for a few years for their own
property, in ignorance or neglect of the rights of the
citizens, which they failed until recently to investigate.
That this neglect is less extraordinary than the un
warrantable assumption of a fee simple title in the trus
tees, when in fact they never were appointed any thing
more than the mere agents of the state to lease.
That the trustees are themselves conscious that they
have no legal title to the common, is sufficiently man
ifested by the desperate step recently taken by them, of
causmgthe common to be run out as vacant land , under
the law securing head rights.
The City Council acting only as the guardians ofthe
rights of the citizens, expect their reasonable co-opera
tion in the maintainance of their rights.

TO BE CONDUCTED RV HOWELL COBB.
tjT.N presenting to the people this prospectus, the Edi
tor deems it superfluous to say one word with re
gard to the utility of newspapers. There are, wever,
particularly at this time, other duties that m not be
avoided so easily. In entering the political arena, we
may not conceal our sentiments ; for wo conceive it our
duty, to our friends and opponents, friendly to avow
them. The State Rights’ Doctrines as contended for
by the best expounders of the Constitution are those
we avow ; wc hold that each state has reserved to her
self, all and every right, not surrendered up and enum
erated in the Constitution of the United States ; that
they may, nay should, and have reserved for the very
purpose, those rights, that whenever occasion requires,
they may be exercised ; but the states should be care
ful, in the exercise of what are called and supposed to
be reserved rights, those surrendered up are not viola
ted : for they are no more the rights of the states than if
they had never been exercised by them. The General
Government too, must move within its legitimate sphere,
carefully observing what powers it may exercise—what
are reserved to the respective sovereignties and what
have not been granted. While here, we remark that
we are uncompromising Union men, and feel and consider
ourselves identified with all those that now rally under
the standard of the twenty-four states, whatever minor
distinctions may, heretofore, have separated us.
As respects the parties in Georgia, too, we have a
word to say.—We have acted with perfect satisfaction
to ourselves, with the Republican party. The spirit
of that party will be carried into our labours ; but we
wish it understood that we have not, and cannot
now consent, to advance our party views and pros
pects by contending against those of our opponents ;
we offer to our opponents the free use of our columns,
if they are properly used.
It is useless to say any thing of the interesting coun
try in which the Intelligencer will be located—the
farmer is invited there by its fertile lands—the un
healthy, by its waters and air—the ciiymist by the
valuable treasure found in its bosom.
The earliest attention and notice will be given of all
new discoveries ot gold mines or other valuable curiosi
ties
The Editor will practice Law in the counties of Che
rokee, Gass, Forsyth, Lumpkin and Floyd, and will be
thankful for any business committed to his attention in
thtse counties.
All letters and communications to the Editor, relating
to the Office, or other business, must be postpaid to en
title them to notice : this rule will be firmly adhered to.
All communications intended for publication must be
accompanied by a responsible and respectable name.
Nothing of a personal character, either in the form of
a communication or advertisement, will, in any instance,
be permuted to appear in our columns.
Our subscription will he three dollars each year, when
paid in advance, or four dollars at the end of the year.
Advertising and Job Work solicited and executed
with neatness and despatch.
A synopsis of all the sheriffs’sales will be published
in Augusta, Milledgevilie and Macon, at the expense of
the proprietor.
The paper may be expected to appear by the 20th of
February.
Our correspondents will direct their communications
to Cherokee Court House.

PROPOSALS w73~~
FOR ENLARGING AND IMPROVING
SOUTHERN BAITHS3L
A Paper now published Weekly in Athens, Geo.
rglllE rapid increase of population, wealth and Inte
M. iigence of Western Georgia, have prompted the.
Editors ol the “ Southern Ban.ver,” in order to keep
pace with the improvement of the times—to lay befoi*|
1 'pl nC - 3 P atrons f the following proposals:
they intend about the first of February next, to publish
the “ Banner” on a large imperial sheet—not inferior in
size or style of execution, to any now published ia die
State torthe accomplishment of which purpose, they
have ordered from New. York an entire new set of mate
rials.
The Editors deem it unnecessary at this late day, to
enter into a minute detail of their political cfeed—they
would deem it but a work of supererogation. Suffice it
to say, their best efforts will always be directed (by dis
seminating correct principles, religious, moral and
political) to the advancement of the interest, honor and
happiness of the people—particularly that portion of
them comprising the Western and North Western sec
tion of the State; and to whom they mainly look for pat
ronage and support.
I he patronage of the Banner is now respectable, but
not sufficient to meet the increase of expenditure that
must necessarily occur, in effecting the improvements
contemplated. They are sanguine, however, in the
hope, that a liberal public will yield to their efforts, that
support and encouragement, upon which they alone
must rely, for the successful accomplishment of an un
dertaking so responsible.
TERMS.
The price of subscription will be the same as here
tofore—viz : .83,00 per annum in advance, or §4,ooif
payment is delayed until after the year expires.
As an inducement to our friends to exert themselves
for us, we effer to give a copy of the Banner for every
ten responsible names forwarded by any one individual.
Letters, post paid, addressed to the Editors, or to
Albon Chase, Publisher, tvill receive prompt attention.
