Judge Thomas Tells How the Army Wona B]ofid- Ress Vietory in 1829, i " All 'the Cavalry Horses Stampeded by a Steamboat. We present beldw another chapter of the . early history of Dlinois, written by Judge ‘Thomes, of Jacksonville, in which he givesa sketch of the causes which led to the Black- hawk Wer, and of the first campaign of that war. ‘Jndze Thomas tas a Quaricrmaster in that campaign, and his opportunities end ca- - pacity for observing were such as to render his recollections of the greatest value in a histori- -cal point of view: . = THE BLACENAWE WAR. JACKSONVILLE, 11, Det. 3, 1871~ the Edi- . tor of the Jacksonville Journal: Tu 1827, under tlie administration of Gov. Edwards, we bad wliat was called the “Winucbago (Var” A Toginent of mounted volunteers from the “‘Countics of Sangamon and Morgan, under com- mand ol Col. Thomas M. Neales, marched to the nelehborhood of Galena, for the defense and protection of the scitlers and miners in that region arainst a supposed threatened inva- slon of the Winnebago Indians. ~ In 152030 2 bumber of families sebtlcd on Rock River, a few miles below Rock Island, in the absence of the Indians, who had previously occupied that land, between Rock River and the , Mississippi. _ In the spring ot 1831 the Indians Teturned, and claimed their former possessious, ‘which our scttlers, having made srrangements for raising a crop, were reluctantly compelled to surreuder. Blackbawk and bis followcrs “claimed thiat this neck of land still belonged 1o the Indians, that thie treaty by which it had ‘beea ceded hiad never been assented to by the “legal owners. Out of this claim of Blackbawk grew the Blirst of the Blackhawk war,—having no conpection with the Winuncbago war. Gov. Reynolds ordercd out 2 brigade of mounted Tolunteers, to proceed to the disputed territory aud repel the Inginns. Gov. Duncan, being then a Major-General of anilitia, took the commund of the brigade, by order of the Governor. The ‘brigade was hastily organized, and in quick time was on the scenc of proposed action. The Indians, however, — beinx aware of the approsth of the army, abandoned their ~ wigwams and possessluns,‘ and crossed the river into ~ lowa. Whilst this brigade was marching across_the country, Gen. Gaines was moving upithe Mississippi on a steamboat with some companies of the regular army. The Genoral, intending % avoid any ‘personal conflict with the Indjaus, or the shed- aing of blood, anchored hie boat a short dis- tance below the mouth of Rock River, and sceut a messenger across the country to meet Gen. Duncan, with orders to_join him on the Missis- sippi, a movement which would give the Indians notice of the approach of the niilitia, and time to cscape, of which they readily availed them- selyes by crossing the river-and retinng to what they esteemed a place of safety. Gen. Duncap reached Gen.Gaines iu the afternoon,encamped, snd remained until next morning, when both commands started up the river,—Gen. Gains on the boat and Gen. Duncan at the'headof his ‘brigade,—intending to meet and co-operate to- gether at the Indian village. It commenced Taining early that morning, and continaed until theafternoon, Before Gen, Duncanreached the ‘place of crossing the Rock River Gen.Gaines had ascended the river as highup as the stage of the water would permit, and siznalized Gen. Dun- can by the firing of cannons, as had been pre- * »'viously agreed on. Being Quartermaster of the Brigade, and hay- ing been informed of the " intended movement, and also of Gen. Gaines’ expectations that the Indians wonld cscape, 1 Wwas not surprised at hearing the cannon, but the rank and tile of the militia thourht the firing was the beginning of = fight, and 3 book might be written represent- ing the ches and Eesnribing the actions of these uninitinted militia, as they passed up the river to the place of crossing. We first crossed # wide, shallow slongh, on to an island thickly set with undergrowth of saplings and bushes. ‘We then reached the main river at _a place sup- sed to be foraable: our advanced guard fol-, owing 2 pilot reputed to be well ‘acquainted with the road, crossed the river bat it was ddep, andthe bottom covered with larme rouk, or -bomlders, as they were called. In crossiom, some of the horses striking these bonlders, fc} and threw their riders into the river, to mak their way across a5 best they could; other horses | “ had oceasionally to swim. With the loss‘of a few guns and the ducking of a few riders, the reached the bank—no one drowned or ly hurt.. The main army went 2 short dist- Buce below, opposite. to the Indian village, where some craft were ‘found on which the men could cross, and the fiorses were made to swim. ‘Whilst crossing the river, the rain fell in tor- rents. Ifound alogecabln on the bank, into which, with my horse, 1 took shelter until most of tne army had crossed, aud the storm abated. Gov. Ford, in his history of Tilinois, criticises in severe terms the action of Gov. Reynolds and Gen. Duncan, in couducting the_army across this island and geross the. river. He cither nev- er knew, or had forgotten, several facts which, i1 considered, wonld at least have greatly modi- tied bis opinions. 3. Gov. Reynolds bed no right to, command after the brigade was placed in service of the United States under command of Gen. Gaines. 2. Gov. Reynolds was taken sick the day that we joined Gen. Gaines, and went aboard of the _teamboat, where he remained until the. boat returued to the mouth of Rock River, and went up the Mississippi to. Rock Island. fe could nut, therefore, rightfully be held_respansible for suything that occurred after Gen. Gaines tuok command. 3. Gen. Duncan reached the island in person, and passed over it to the river before the bri- gade reached the wide slough of tie river; he had seen the Indiau village, and Jkuew that the Indians rad made their escape, and -therefore, there was no more use for discipline or order in crossing the ishod gud. the river than would ‘bave been In Grossing the Ilinois River at Peo- Tia or Beardstown. - b 4. Gen. Duncan knew that the officers of com- ‘panics could condict their men through the Lhick undergrowth vn the jsland (allowing cach man to work his way) as well, if not better, by simply requiring the companies to keep as near together as practicable, than to have required strict-discipline and order, as if the cnemy had been arrayad_before thim in Brder for battle, tlie dunizer, if any ever ‘existed, hiad passed, the Iudiunstiad inglorjously fled. -+ - 5.-Gov. Ford did not Tightly appreciate the character sud capacity of the volunteers, the ability of each to take care. of himself. Gen. Duucan remained on the east side of the river, piving dircctions when necessary until thewhole Tirizade had crossed, and then crossed with those Towing the boats. 1 - 'l'beg:um\' encamped that night in the Indian yillage, using afl the wigwams that could be made available, and using the bark which had Deen detached from wigwams to sleep on. The Tain, which had ceased 3 few hours before night, long’ enough for the making of fires, cooking and cating supper, commenced awamn during the night and continued to pour down in tor- rents until after day; my mess had a good tent, under which we slept; but 10 keep 38 dry as possible T procured a wide piece of bark, curved atthe sides like a trough with e round- bottom, to slecp on. It was warm westher, and the rain was warm; ivhen I awoke in the morning I found my bark filled with water, one or more inchics deep, and to that depth the Svater was uncer me, S0 that, but for having x chanpeof “clothes kept in a dry place, I shounld Tiave been compelled fo 20 on duty with nearly Dalf my clothing as wet as_water could make them. The nexg day we marched to Rock Islaud . aud encamped bn the east bavk ol the slough, opposite to the Tort, where we yemained until mustered out of service and - discharzed. Whilst encamped on the river, and before it was known wirat the Indians might be willingto do upon the question of remaining out of the State, and keeping the peace, our horses, 1,500 or 1,500, grazing below the - encamp- ment, were frightened Dby the approach of a stcamboat,” and forthiwith stampeded, making snoise almost cqual to distant, heavy | thunder., The army was called to srms aod formed in line in quick time, no one knowing Lut that the Indians were upon us. The first direction of the horses was toward the encamp- 1nent. but the sentinels were able to tura ‘them toward the blaff on the cast, and they were soon out of hearing, when the near approach of the boat told the story of “the alarm. ' Most of the horses were fonnd the next day, but many of them continued'the chase, and were found Gays afterwards, several miles up Rock River; others were ot tound. Returning home, my mess encamped onc night onabranch of Crooked Creck, near the residonce of o Mr. Peguington, swhere we found the emcampment of parts of several companies building fiyes and preparing supper. Here { was informed that a volunteer fiom Sangamon County, called by the name of Gen, Jacison, had in his possession four {ndian ponies, brought {rom the vidinity of Rock Tstrad. - T seut for him to ascertain liow e came by the ponies, fearing that they had been stolen. © my inquiries e said that he had pur- them - from - a strapger below ok- Jstand. - =1 proposed that e shonld 2 surrender them to e to b2 kept until. the question of ‘ownership could be investizated (expressing a fear tnai the stranger had stolen them), to which be readily ansented.

TEXAS LINGO. Some Peculiarities of Language in the Lone Star State, Which ‘Tt Will Be Well for “Chicago Travelers to Learn, Otherwise They Will Be Suspected of Yankeeism, and Bounced. To the Editor of The Tridune. Moxcrg, Ind., April 18.—The trade of Texas is lmmense and is yearly growing in importance. Formerly the Texas trade was controlled by New Orleans. Then Galveston and Houston sprang up and divided it with N. 0. Later St. Louis, upon the completion of the Missour], Kansas & Texas Railway, flogded Texas with her drummers and gained 4 vast trade. Chicago now proposes to contend for a part of that trade. No one can doubt but that with her in- domitable will sheWill succeed. y 1t will obviously be of advantage to the trav- cler, commercial or other, to have pointed out to Liim certaln peculiarities of language that he will meet with in Texas, To do thisis my ob- ject in writing this letter. If I succeed in s0 familigsizing one Chicago man with the Texan vergaciffar that he can, immedintely upon ar- riving in ‘l'esas, assume somewhat the tone and style of conversation peculiar to the *old Tex- an,” then will I be indeed happy. For con- venience sake 1 will address the supposed trav- .eler directly. ‘When, Mr. Traveler, you *land” (people “Jand," not ‘arrive) in Texas remember that you haveno baggage, but ““tricks.” And, if a drummer, after you have displaved your sam- ples to your custoniers, you are asked to go and TAKE A" SNIFTER,” you will reply, * Wait tit] Ipack my ‘tricks.”” You will speedily Jearn that “tricks” is the bandiest word in the “whole business.” It is applicable at all times, in all places, and to all things (almost). -It may be defined to mean any artidle (pronounced in Texas with the accent on thie sceond syllable) or articles that can be carried fn the hand.- If you are a theatre-goer when in Chicago you may have developed a fondness for peanuts. Beware of asking for them under that*name un- less you want to proclaim yourself a Yaokee. Caull Boldly for “goobers,” or “ground-peas.”. When you make payments of put prices on goods, recolleet that in Texas the dollar is di- vided into elght equal parts, cach part being calleda “Dit.” Thus a “quarter” is “two Dits,” half-a-dollar is **four bits,” etc. If you would not be laughed to scorn, take carc when cressing. a smatl stream not_to say, What creek (pronouncing & short, erik, as is common .in. the Noith), but what ereek (pro- ‘nouncing it long like creak)t When speaking of a drove of horses say * cav- vy-yard" of horses. .* Cav-vy-yard” se2ms to be corrupted from the Spanish cadallo, a horse. Youmay huve to travel on horseback, In this event be careful in choosing yoar beast. DO NOT SELECT A ““MUSTANG,” particularly if he happens to be also & “cow- pony,” unless you want to bo initiated into the mysteries of “bucking,” The mustang is the only animal in the world that exn “ buek,” and ‘it ousht to be a source of continual thanksgiv- ing.that such 1 the case. ‘The * buck ™ conslsts ‘of the'mustang’s springing forward with quick, short, plunging leaps, aud coming down stiff- Tegged, with his head between his fore legs and as near the ground as possible. He will also run * sky-godlin,” a peculiar oblique movement, and get up and ‘‘scally-hoot,” that is,. tear acrogs the country agif mad, and_then stap all of a *‘suddent” and vary his performances by “raring up” bebind. By this time the rider, unless he is a Mexican, Comanche, or Texas Cow-Boy,” is salely resting upon mother carth. One_experiment with a bucking mnus- tang generaily satisfies the most curious. By all meaas, then, for a saddlc-animal choose an & Ameriean® lorse; as all Lorses from the “States™ are called. Mules are proverbially unsafein all countries. In Texas.the small “XMexican ” or “Spanish 1nule is rightly considered many degrees more unsafe than his ** American > cousin. B When you come down.stairs too late for the ather catly breakfast of a Texas hotel, the sable attendant will inforni you ‘“‘dat dey’s ~done’ had breakfus 'nour ago.” A thme is never done in Texas, it is “done done.”” A person bas never gone anywhere, but “done ne.” Aod when the colored brother (or sister) seeks to im‘prcss upon your mind be- youd all doubt the fact. that belas really done soucthing you have cmployed him to do, he will solemuly asseverate that he has *done gone and Qoue done” it. His power of ns- sertion can go no further, In the cattic country yon will have plenty of opportunity to LEARN TO -““ROPE” A YEARLING, to distinguish a ** Maverick”” froin other year- lings, and to manage @ “cow-pony.” These things and many others will be taught you by the “cow-boys.” The *‘cow-boy ”is the Texas cattle-herder and drover. A ‘“cow-pouy,” the mustang he trains and uses. A “ Maverick" is an_unbranded yearlivg. This word, which is universal in Texas, came Into cxistence in this wise: Mr. 8. A, Maverick, of San Antonio (pro- nounced San Aun-tone by the ‘‘old Tex-i-an?), one of the siguers of the Texan Declaration of Tudependence, who died a_few years ago,was the Jargest land-owner in Tex if not in the worid, and, though he Jived in the midst of a vast cattle-region, he had a contempt for that species of property. He wus, in fact, a lund- monomanine. Nevertheless, he was once com- pelled to take s “brand ” of cattle in payment ofa debt—a bad aebt he must have regarded it. These cattle were allowed to run on the rige unattended ond unlooked _ater. Now, when calves amive at the dignity of “yearlings” they must be branded “with their owner’s “brand,” otherwise some fellow will “slap his ‘braud’ onto ’em,” and the law says they belong to the party whose “brand they “are in.”” Maverick, caring nothing for roperty in cattie, neglected to brand his vear- ings. ‘This continuing year after year, all un- branded yearlings werd said to be Maverick’s,— but they did not long remain Maverick’s, or «Mavericks *’ either, as the first herder that got a chance branded them in his own brand, and thus they beeame bis. The word “ Maverick,"" however, stuck, being handy, and so a man of whom it might fairly be said, ‘he never owned cattlé,” has given Lis name to certain members of tli¢ vast herds that form the chief wealth of Western Texas. | = IN RIDING THE “COW-PONY " a “quirt” ts used. This is ashort and heavy riding-whip, made of plaited rawhide fastened to a short wooden handle or stock. It is o very effective instrument. . In driving cattle & *‘cow-whip ” is used. Itis made of a Jong lash attaclicd to a short wooden Bt It is lixe the whip used by butchers and drovers fn the North—only *‘more so.” The * ox-whip? is used in driving “steers.” It consists of * a*lonz lash and along handle, and 1s a fearful aflsir.

' Ox aopd oxen are almost unknown terms in Texas. These usefnl beasts are there called “steers.” The word oxen is indeed sumetimes used in a queer way. It isTtézarded as 2 noun m the singular, " and .i8 repluralized into ‘% oxens.” Bat . ¢steers” js the vernacular.

ON TIE PLANTATION you will hear of “secd-cottun ” (cotton before ginning), and “lint-cotton ” (after ginning). A *zaod stand ” of corn or cotton is' where the plants come up thick enough iu the rows to in- sure & good crop. One very strange peculiarity ot Texus farming, at least amoug the * old Tex- 208,” is that they never “make’” a full crop, but & “half-crop”” or other fractional crop. It % aliways “onscasopable * in some wayorother. he spring is too hackward, or too forward, too wet or too dry, and if none of these things be- fall themn the cotton-worm is certaiu to destroy the crop in the fall. “Bag? of cotton is plan- tation'for bale of cotton. A “cotton-picking is a-gathering of all the hands of aneighborhood to help out_some poor devil who can't “pick’? his crop. Hard work, follawed by whisky, plenty to_cat, and much rough and uncouth jollifying characterize them. Sometimes they are given vy alarge planter to hurry up his work. * Fodder” in’ Texas is re- stricted to the blades of corn stripped from the stalks while standing, tied into bundles snd cured. “Roughness * takes the place oBfodder 2s we understand the word, in_Texas and the South gencrally. ¢ Fodder-pullings » are simi- lar to the **cotton-pickings.” Traveling in Texas you will doubtless “mect up? with many odd characters and habits, but # you have plenty of “sexds” you will 20 through safe. {t would be better if you have “oodles of seads,” and if you are the fortunate possessor of ¢ dead oodles” of that commodity vou can be hapoy there as elsewhere.
