As coanpla: us, and pr titions, and reironltrances wer nuitlefs, America, as a I.tfl re source, was nereffiiated to r< lore to arms, and to try, *’ in ne unprofitable conrefi of war, which could do the other thr nod harm.” ;t was during ’iwife troubles, during this na~ onal dilpute, and durmg the subsequent eight years war, that r hofc celebrated characlvrs, of whom America wjil ever justly ■oallj made themselves conspi cuous and ukful. Some there were, who served thnr country honorably in civil capacities , others, who led h'*r armie: Uiiough the toils and dar gers o’ war to victory and glory. A itiong the Ja ter, Gen. Cjatcs holds an eminent station. Although Gen. Gatls was born n England; had served as u Major it/ (everal expeditions un ier generals Monckton, Corn vallis, and Braddock ; and had a quired no inconfiJerable hon >r a:, a brave young officer; yet, oiwithftanding ihefe circum tanccs, America was the coun :ry cf his choice. Early in life lie removed to Virginia, and there enjoyed all the plealuret which accompany rr-tirenirnt, a independent f(/rtune and domef* tie einployrrerus. But the fair sunshine of his fnuation wasfoon k oveiJhadov/ed by the clouds of fWhole Number 390. I approaching danger. I'he fierce jafpetfTof the British lion threat jened dellrutffion to the trem !hi mg Americans, when Gates thatched the fltield of defence, land placed hi nf.-lf as .1 barrier i between them and danger. De voted, even from his boyilh days 0 the priac'plts of republican ism, hegli-jly embraced iftc L-Jo r ot.s gulden opportunity’ now piHtmed hint, and immediately enhiled under the banners of liber y. As lie was the firtt to unlhrath his f.vord in defence of American rights, lb he was the ! ‘(t to return ir to its Icabbnrd rimt'oned with the blood and 1 it.sfied with the (laughter of her ■enemies. As :or many years he •oughr her bittlcs, and Del he.’ ’Toops to victory, lo did his per- Icv.-rance remain uni ed, until he iaw her bu (t the lhackles of her :hraljam, and o > ain her inde . ntlcn. e. Fortunately for him t'h fortunately for his country, - tlcA ’ed death, althoucdi tie r irtrdly rdkt and his period a mdlt the bloody carnage of de u-tive war. Mo/c fortunate dun many odirr brave officers, ife names and whose exploits full lie held in dear icmem ■>run. eby their countrymen, he hv dt.) lee the independence of VTicrica eftablifiied u~on the firm basis of an indillbiuble uni. o i among the (Tates, and a con. lition cf initerefts, under a repre- Ifntaiive democracy. He lived to fee the fruits of his brave ex ploit ripen into the harvest of happmefs. He saw America enjoying every blelfing which nature could five, or Heaven could bellow, enlightened by the wifiiol nos Liccelfive Irgdlators m 1 smiling under the benign •fl tence ol the prtfent mild ad* t indttation. Had he call a. glance forward into the w imb f futurity, he might have ob served revolving centuries p.i.'f mtj awav, and America (1 ill hap py The memory of past times ■'Ould ihen have flatteringly iug-clled, that many of tho fo .-idlings aiofe from his courage • . t pa ruriim; and in the fpfi’jc / prophecy, lie wt.uld have pro ‘-'un eu, ‘ I oar the American *■’ ph would right.lv -’ppreciate ne r ; rest ut hapj in-1 ; } if they ■ old pr lttrve a ciuirackt,-un hlied by vice, unsullied by lux uty, uncorrnpted by venality, A'liilc surrounding nations, ;rown old in vice and folly] ould totter fiom their founda ions, arid fall into the vortex of oblivion.’ But to return to the thread of our narration. Sensible of the z-a! of Gen. Gates in the caufc of liberty, & convinced of his great military alents, Congress, loon after the commencement of tlie revelu ion, give him the cornmifilon >f a Major-General, accompan ied with the command ot the northern airry. Carnroandirv; this army, compofcd of raw and undisciplined militia, unfkilied in the art of war, unused to feat o’ arms, unexperienced in the bro Is cf battle, he obtained vie - ories, ar.d performed aft ons of which have proved highly bene ficial to his country, and have crowned iiis name with immor tality. I* would be a tedious, and indeed an unnecetfary talk, to deferibe minutely every par ti idar fkirmilh in wh ch he wa? engaged, or to m< ntion every trivial advantage which he gain ed over the enemy. This is not a talk incumbent to his euloL'fT • but is a duty more proper for the hiftoriatl.
