From a gentleman just from Ohio, intelligence of considerable importance has been received: that the Potawatomie, Wyandot and other Indians, to the number of 600, have assembled at Greenville on Mud river Ohio. The colonel of that part went to them for the purpose of ascertaining their object and numbers. The Indians refused to give him any satisfaction on the subject. He then went to the prophet and told him if he did not, he should inform the government of his country. He replied, 'I care not a d--n for you or the government of your country; I can blow you off the earth like sand from my hand.' Six hundred of the Kentucky militia had crossed the Ohio at Limestone, commanded by Gen. Scott; and 1500 Ohio militia were required to march for the purpose of dispersing them. It was reported at Chillicothe, that 2000 Indians had crossed the lakes, and that a number of British agents were among them, and it was supposed the former were waiting until joined by these others, when it was expected they would attack the whites.
