322. WH Sat Nov 1, 1794: Albany, October 16. Last week arrived in this city from captivity in the Shawanese country, Jacob Waldron and his wife. They made their escape from the Indians in March last and came into Detroit; from thence, by Niagara and Genesee to this place, on
their way to the White Plains, where some of their relations and friends live. They were furnished with money by the Albany Humane Society to enable them to prosecute their journey. Mr. Waldron says, he was a soldier in Gen. Wayne’s army, and taken prisoner, near Fort Jefferson, last November. His wife who he married since they escaped from the Indians, was taken at Green Brier, in Pennsylvania, about 5 years ago, at which time her then husband was killed. They relate nothing of material importance; their story is however corroborative of what we have heretofore heard from others who have been in captivity. From what they learned and could observe at Detroit, there is a great inveteracy reigning there against the people of the United States. They say, Gov. Simcoe, with 200 of the Queen’s rangers, set off for the Miami. That it was the general belief, the troops would not return without Gen. Wayne’s scalp, as the Gov. was greatly exasperated at him. Two of the Captains of the Detroit militia were killed in the late engagement with our army, one of them was a refugee from Montgomery county in this state.

323. WH Sat Nov 1, 1794: Albany, October 16. By a gentleman of respectibility from Canandarqua, we learn, that Col. Pickering arrived
at that place on the 16th of September, for the purpose of holding a treaty with the Six Nations; that the indians had not yet come in, but
that they were within 30 miles of that place, when he came away. It was supposed the late defeat of the western indians would change materially the tone of these indians at the ensuing treaty.

324. WH Sat Nov 1, 1794: Windham. Col. Eleazer Fitch, formerly of this town, the custom officer at St. John’s, is said to have been too lenient to the illicit traders from the United States, and broken. Patrick Conroy now fills that office, and has adopted the most rigorous measures to prevent any illicit intercourse between the U. States and Canada. He is constantly attended by upwards of 50 dependants night and day, who guard all the avenues. Several persons have met with severe [losses?] since the new arrangements.

333. WH Sat Nov 8, 1794: From a Dublin paper of 3d Sept. Alarming Emigration. “The emigrations from every part of this country to the
United States of America are become general. The Factor Capt. Bowen, sailed for New-York on Thursday last, with eighty four passengers, and the Mohawk Capt. Allen, which sailed a short time since, carried forty-seven families from the county of Sussex. All the American vessels which have sailed from Liverpool and Bristol, for these twelve months past, have been crowded with families, who have sought an asylum in that hospitable clime. The Hope, Capt. Johnson, which left Liverpool last Sunday fe’nnight, took Ralph Eddowese, Esq. of Chester, with his wife and five children, accompanied with four other of the principal families of that city. Mr. Eddowese has taken with him a property of 26,000 pounds, and his friends possessed an independence little inferior to this respectable citizen. Mr. Cooper of Manchester, with a wife and four children, was accompanied by eighteen of his friends, and departed from Liverpool on Friday last, in the Atlantic, commanded by Capt. Swain. Mr. Cooper had been twelve months in America, had purchased an estate on the banks of the Susquehanna, in the State of Pennsylvania and returned for his family and friends who have now accompanied him. Mr. Russel of Bermingham, a magistrate for the counties of Warwick and Worcester, with his two brothers and their respective families; Mr. Humphries of Birmingham, who owned the beautiful romantic vila, at Camp Hill, near that town with eight of his relations; and above a hundred other families of Birmingham, have also taken their departure for America. There is scarce a town in the North of England, from which one or more families have not emigrated; among these may be mentioned Mr. Shipley and family from Uttoxeter, &c. Mr. Cooper of Manchester, has published his twelve months tour in America, describing the state of Society in that country, the quality and value of land in the respective states; the prices of every article of manufacture, and raw materials, labor, provisions, rent, &c. the constitution, laws, population, &c. of America; with a state of the exports and imports from that time. Of war to the year 1794.

334. WH Sat Nov 8, 1794: Whitestown, October 22. A gentleman of veracity from the westward informs, that Brandt, the celebrated Indian
chief and warrior has declared himself an enemy to the United States, and has actually put himself at the head of 200 chosen warriors of the
Six Nations, and marched to join the combined Indians opposed to the Federal army under General Wayne. When setting out, Brandt is said to
have declared that success had ever attended his enterprise, and that the moment he could give a general defeat to Gen. Wayne’s army; he
should be ready and willing to die. (We trust that this dear fellow will live to see many moons even at that.) Gen. Wayne’s successes have gained him the ill will of Upper Canada, as it renders the Indians more exorbitant in their demands for supplies, &c. to be furnished from the
British stores. Governor Simcoe is known to curse his good luck (as he terms it; And it is said by a gentleman lately from Niagara, that this
[fatelyte?] of the British court has actually bid up 100 guineas to the person that shall lay before him the head or scalp of General Wayne.

Downie) have been by the same court who tried Mess. Muir, Palmer, &c. just condemned to suffer death, in the next month; as follows: “To be
hanged by their necks, but not till they are dead; then to be taken down, and their entrails cut out, their hearts to be burnt in their sight, and their bowels thrown in their faces; their bodies to be quartered, and to be at the disposal of his Majesty. Does not horror seize your heart! Do not tears dart into your eyes? Does not indignation arrest your every sense, at reading this worse than devilish sentence, especially when youy are informed that their crime is, walking in the same path that Muir and Palmer walked, but perhaps a step further? Such is the punishment of, or for those who dare openly shew their disapprobation of corrupt Statecraft, and diabolical Priestcraft: you may view yourself happy (among all your inconveniences) that you have escaped from the house of bondage.

351. WH Sat Nov 29, 1794: Whitestown, Nov. 5. And Satan came also among them. A gentleman directly from Canandarquie, informs, that 1600 Indians had come in to the treaty on Monday fe’nnight; and also, that Wm. Johnson a British Indian agent, and a Mr. Sreet, the Indian interpreter, from Niagara, were also there; and had found means to collect 26 chiefs in a bye place, and were haranguing of them in the most eloquent and flattering manner, when discovered by the inhabitants; they were using the most persuasive arts together with offers of large presents, to induce the Indians to turn their arms against the United States. The meeting broke up in a disorderly manner. The inhabitants were greatly exasperated at this insolent conduct of British agents; and it is said they gave out, that if Col. Pickering did not cause their arrest, they would inflect upon them the Yankee punishment of tar & feathers.
