John Harris, in writing to President Wharton on the situation of public affairs, under date of Paxtang, 29th January, 1778, gives an opinion which is just as worthy consideration to-day as it was over a century ago,-that in dealing with the Indian question should never act upon the defensive, but attack the savages in their own country at all hazards. His letter runs thus:


"SIR: The bearer, Col. William McAlevey, is an honest man, and a true friend to the glorious cause of liberty, going down for aid to defend our f. ontiers against the encroachnieuts of the savages. I am of opinion that the Indians will take an active part next spring for or against us), as their young men don't understand acting as ventrals in time of war ; and nuless they, the Western Indiaus, delivers up hostages to the United States immediately, or sends a number of their warriors to our camp to join us, we may depend upon an Indian war taking place against us, and ought to prepare for it as well as our procent circumstances will" admit. A defensive war against -avages will never do the needful.


" However prudent and necessary it may be to grant assistance to several parts of the frontiers, etc , at particular times, and when we are assured that a general Indian war will take place, we must attack theni in their own country at all hazards. If a French war takes place. I hope we may be eased of an Indian war, which will be a greit merey. I make free to give your honor my sentiments of the times, and conclude."


As Harris supposed, in the early part of > pring the situation of the people of Northumberland County and the West Branch was imminently critical. A large party of Indians, Tories, and English deserters en- tered the county and commercel a war of extermin.a. tion upon the settlers, who were without the means of defense, the greater portion of the able-bodied men, with their tru-ty rifles, being in the service. On the $1 of June, John Harris writes to Vice-President Bryan, --


appears absolutely necessary that some peron should receive, st re, provide, and forward any stores the public may order up the Sa-que. haona, Juniata, etc., during the present Indian war. A quantity of tt mr is wanted ; not a cask or long to put it in. The inhabitants are leaving sail county in great unmber. I faty my bleeding country, and ani w .!. ling to assist the supdying the county of Northund erf und by any Dieses in my power, or forward any article up the diferent branches of this river from time to time. I adi as good a judge of the navization. I either boat of change, on our river as can be found. I expect to send up a quantity of stores to the bad mines, up Jumata, at Water Street is soon as I receive a letter frian Mir. Robordean, which I courts expert. The present flood to convey by water should not be lost, as ferhat- a other niny hajgen till next fall. The quartermaster can furnish p:o- visions for beattuen or any necessary escorts, etc. If the intri itant - in their fright are suffered to m'we off as they are doing, and assistance- 1 t Boou sent up, the crops will be lost in many frontier places, that may be saved by their getting timely and from the public. A quantity of art., some powder and lead, is hete for Northumberland County, which I . t. pect will be forwarded to-morrow. There's two good story homens at my dwelling plantation, ex hisive of a cellar fifty fret by forty, under my dwelling-house so that there's plenty of store room for the public use if wanted. There's a great concourse of public wagons, t. . with stor4 on the Reading road, too few flats at the ferry lere, and what there is will not be properly attended, that the public may aufter for want of a few men employed by the public ito assist in my opinion . I have rented my tavern, ferry, etc., and am at leisure to assist the transporting stores, etc., up the Susquehinna as offered, if proper instructions are seut me. You'll please write to me by bearer, Mr. Whithill, if you judge beres- sary."
