The following is a list of the Kentucky Dona-
tions that have come on for this wing of the
Army

and a few other articles besides about as much
more to individuals and 18 waggon loads
more that by last advices were on the way
between. Cincinatti and St. Mary's -
no clothing designated particularly for the Regulars
have yet come on. Some Indian goods we have got
hold of however I hope will prevent any more of
them from dying so soon as we can get it
made up. Government has been palpably ne-
gligent of the US Troops in this quarter.
We have no news here. We are all anxious
to get on to Canada but supplies come on so
slow that some begin to despair. The river is
so high now that I hope provisions enough
will be got on before it freezes. I believe
it is Genl Harrison's determination to move
on if possible. If the boats get down it
will be possible.
