Regiment from the service of the United St3tes.
The Brigadier-General commanding expresses
the, gratification which the good conduct and
steady obedience, to order and duty, evinced
both by the officers and men of the First, had
afforded him; and, while he applauds the
zeal with which they have endured the toil
and hardships of the fi*.ld, he feels a proud
Consolation in asserting that their pledges to
Government, as is- as an opportunity has off-r
ed. have been fulfilled. The General com-
■handing, in taking - leaving of this portian of
his compatriots in arms, congratulates them
on the return of peace* which enables them to
rr. to their domestic purh^ts and enjoy,
meats, fully persuaded thatwfey will, at all
times, flock to the standard ot their country
with alacrity, and rerst wi»h a soirit becoming

With h*art felt satisfaction, I accord with my

availed herself of our war. with-England. to in
sult our minister and make prisoners of our
countrymen, that-the day of peace with Eng

We repeat the declaration, Nrt one moment

countrymen, and relinquish his annual tribute,

FEATHERS IN OUR CAP.
France has'fr-quently been worsted in her
wars with England—yet France had twenty
to twenty five millions of people, large regular
armies, considerable fl-cts and a heavy purse.
We e young people, just in the grisle, with a
small nary, a ra.w army, and a straitened trea
surv, have encountered the same enemy and
concluded a peace with her, while “ the stripes
were yet ble-ding on her back.”
AG AIN— We have encountered an enemy,
who owned the largest fleet that has ever rode
the. sea, a purse without bound*, and troops
which she is prfud eooiigh to say, are tbe 6es>
in the world—and yet tae have comba’ted her,
single-handed as,we were, until •' the balance
of defeats is. heavily against her.”
Methinks.these things are. enough to make
us a little “vain,” and a little “ boastful”—ib-
