T’nere were hoys in the Revolution,

less spirit—boys who would not be
come traitors although the rack and
gibbet confronted them—boys who
toiled with an endurance and boldness
unequalled in the annals of a nation
for the independence of the ‘‘Old
Thirteen;” and had they now a just
desert, the brightest star in the Amer
ican constellation, and their widest
stripe in her broad canvas, would be
dedicated to the boys of ’76.
Let us relate an instance :
It tvas in the year 1777. Phila
delphia Avas in the hands of HoAve
and his inhuman soldiery, Avho in the
fields of Brandywine, gave the Amer
ican people an evidence of British hu
manity. The inhabitants of Dela
ware and Pennsylvania were at the

wi.h f.igb.. and b -fore he htdreco. what was the astonishment of the bovs
er-d from his stupor, found himself to find that in theefiTortstofreehmi-

there was no one there but our own
family and Major Bardston.”
graceful I have ever seen, the stride i
is long, but the foot seems scuicely!
to touch the ground, and the march
» apparently made without effort or
fatigue.
Tiie step of the foot rifles is short-
er and quicker, and not so easy and
graceful. The impression produced’
by tbeapp arance of these two corps j
is very different; the rifles look like
active energetic fellows, who would
find their best field as skirmishers;
but the Zouaves have combined >vith
all the activity and energy of the oth
ers, that solid ensemble and reckless,
dare-devil individuality, which would
render them alike formidable when
attacked en masse, or in defending a
position in the most desperate hand-
to-hand encounter. Of all the troops
that I have overseen, I should esteem
it the greatest honor to assist in de
feating the ZouaA'es. The grenadiers
of the guard are all large men, and a
fine-looking, soldiery set.

Everybody in that crowd, without huge rocks, each of half a .on in

• - * the edge of the giant precipice. The
creek at this point was not more than
twenty feet wide, and was directly
overhung by the mass of rocks c<n
which our heroes stood. If the Brit
ish band descended the creek, they
would certainly pass this spot; if
they passed it, then death was tlieir
certain fate. In about an hour, the
quick ear of Wilson detected the mea
sured stroke of tho muffled oars.
“They are coming,” he whispered;
“let no one drop his rock until I give
the word, and then all at once.”
It was a beaut'ful night to wreak
a work of death. The heavens were
spangled with innumerable stars, and
every.object upon which the moon
beams played, sparkled with silvery
radiance.

“Now, by the dead of Bunker Hill,

With a firm tread, and the utmost

march for old Squire Livingston’s.
Livingston had long been suspect
ed of harboring British spies, and
some of liis former laborers, had re
ported that he had kept up a regular
correspondence with the British com
mander. At all events, lie was gen

as a dangerous man, and was there

as promptly as he was expected to do;

prince sighed heavily, and turning
his eyes upon the bridegroom, ex
claimed, as he pressed the bridesmaid’s
band, locked at that moment within
his own, “Poor fellow, how I pity
him!’ “Why so?” said the lovely
bridesmaid, half offended. “Why,

such an ass ? I, for one, would never
marry, if Venus herself, with 50,000
ducats in each pocket, were offered
