TIIC HUMBLE REMONSTRANCE
or THU
BACHELOR'S CLUB, OF HAVERHILL.
To the High mil Mighty Legislators of New-
York anil of Maryland.
Father!' most noble, honor'd, (earn'd and sage!
Lights of our land, and wonders of our age I
Ye first, Mynheers! who boast your Dutch de
cent !
May every purse lie fill'd, each heart content;
Your Grand Canal InsaAnish'd, hank-stock rise;
And crowded commerce bless your longing
eves;
Each envious rival nt your feel be thrown ;
If ve in mercy hear our piteous moan.
But if your Legislature e’er enacts
'J’hat vile, malicious, foolish, dirty tax,
May, like your hogs, your Cashiers nil run free ;
Your bank stock low, and purses lower he;
Your auctions multiply, your rivals gain ;
And your dull Bclgiuu blood, through every
veini
How in n stream, ns Mark and slow ns Styx,
Ye next, (^generate sons of Catholics I
If Maryland (his hateful law decrees,
May all its sons be doom’d to walk on peas ;
Do penance at the whipping post, nnd fait
Long as thiltat on Bachelors shall last.
But why this malice to a harmless race.
Who can their line of predecessors trnce,
Through every age, till hy creation bounded,
Nnv farther back, till Masonry was founded ?
In ijuiet garrets we contented dwell,
And truly wish the whole creation well.
Within one room our furniture is laid—
Two chairs, one table, book case, and n bed ;
A wash-stand and a broom one corner grace ;
lints, boot* nnd shoes adorn another place ;
Old coats and towels, shirts and night caps lie,
Scatter’d around to gratify the eye ;
A narrow hearth supplies a moderate heat,
To warm our limbs, boil onions, or roast meat;
A half starved cat our meats and lodgings shares:
Fuss and ourselves have all the household
cares.
While thus we live, malicious boys will kill
Our cats, nnd make e'en us their sport at will,
Our windows breuk, whole peck of onions plun
der,
And should they steal our night-caps, twererto
wonder.
There is no mercy in the men nnd boys;
Hut women are still louder in their noise.
They mock our manners, though vve strive to
plense,
Laugh at us, shun us, jilt us, plague and teaze.
Then pity, pity our unhappy lot,
Be just and merciful, and tax us not!
Is it our fault no marrihge bond is tied ?
How oft, to win some rich and blooming bride,
Have we employed for hours the barber’s skill,
And swell'd the laundress’ nnd the tailors’bill?
Slept through whole weeks with lotions on out
face.
To cure some pimple, or improve some grace ?
With stays and corsets every member brac'd,
Vor graceful shoulders, or a slender waist ?
Willi stiff cravats, and fashionable shoes,
Freserv’d our heels creel, and pinch’d our toes?
.Then with a snuff hox gilt, and crooked cane,
Loung'd, self admired, through every street nud
lane ? ;
Far be it from us celibacy to boast;
We love the girls—perhaps their money most.
But should this plea no piteous feelings raise;
Think! what is'marriage, which you so much
praise ?
Think of a life of troubles, plagues and strife ;
Of-squalling children and a scolding wife;
Of all the ills, on maa which woman pours:
Then go! repeal your tax on Bachelors!
By order of the Society,
CCEl.EBS, Secretary.
MOM TUB a. V. DAILY ADVERTISER.
A short time since tve informed our
readers, that the family of the late Presi
dent Dwight, of Yale College, intended
in the ensuing summer to publish his tra
vels in the state ofNew-York> and the
Ix’ew-England states ; and stated, that we
should publish, occasionally, some ex
tracts from the manuscripts as specimens
of the manner in which the work is exe
cuted. The author took great pains in
the cdurie of his various excursions to
collect as much information of the enrly
bistory of our country, and as many facts
ami anecdotes of the inhabitants, particu
larly during the period of Indian war
fare, as was in his power, in this he
was more successful than could have
been expected ; and it will probably be
owing to his exertions, that many very
interesting events, which occurred in the
first century after the settlement of the
country by white inhabitants, are not in a
great measure lost, even to the present
generation. The following account of
the sufferings and heroism of one family
in Massachusetts will we have no doubt,
be read with interest. The events here
narrated took place a little more than
one hundred and twenty years ago.—
The mind can scarcely realize the fact,
that the oldest parts of our country were,
even at that period, liable to these sa
vage invasions. And yet, such was the
case many years subsequently to the
time here mentioned. One great object
of the author of these travels was, to
shew the progress of our country, in all
the interests and circumstances of civili
zation and improvement, from its first
tpttlement to the date of his observations.
STORY OF Mr. & Mrs. DUSTAN.
From President Dwight’s Travels,
jw [Fol. 1, Letter XL.]
“ rfcrerhiH was s^jflfrvip the vear
9cos;ponrteSn' s fiU TV During
tlerodfiWK sMeTErrhfiA my^Piitly by
ravage depredations. The story of these
depredations is, however, imperfectly
known at the present time, Even the
iaeti which are still known, are so dis
persed in the possession of different per-
fon«, e* to render it very difficult to ob
tain them correctly. This kind of
knowledge is daily becoming less, and
will Boon be lost. It is much to be
wished, that inquisitive men throughout
this country would glean and preserve
the little which is left. It is a serious
and unfortunate error of men in general
to suppose, that events familiarized to
tliemselFea by fireship repetition, will
die uninte|estmg to others : and that ef-
fiirts to preserve fltfn wifibe considered
of either -trifi^g Ju^rf-Vgant. In no
country, probably, are the inhabitants
tnorn. inquisitive than in ivew-F.ngland.
But their inquiries terminate, or have
until lately terminated, chiefly in things
remote in time or place ; and have been
very little occupied by subjects pertain
ing to their own country. It is perhaps
natural to tnan to feel, that his own con
cerns, or rii) concerns w liieh are familiar
to him, will he little regarded by those who
came after him. Few parents are solici
tous to have their own portraits taken,
yet, after their decease scarcely any le
gacy is thought more valuable hy their
children.
In the year IG97, on the 5th day of
March, a body of Indians attacked this
town ; burnt a small number of houses,
nnd killed and captured about 40 of the
inhabitants.—A parly of them arrayed in
all the terrors of the Indian war dress,
and carrying with them lire multiplied
horrors of a svage invasion, approached
near the house of a Mr. Dustnn. This
man was abroad at his usual labor. Up
on the first alarm, he flew to the house,
with a hope of hurrying ton place of
safety his family, consisting of his wife,
who had been confined a week only in
child-bed—her norse, a Mrs. Mary Tnff,
a widow from the neighborhood—nnd
eight children. Seven of his children,
he ordered to flee with the utmost ex
pedition in the course opposite to that
in which the danger was approaching—
and went himself to assist his wife.—
Before she could leave her bed, the sav
ages were upon them. Her husband
despairing of rendering her any service,
flew to the door, mounted his horse, and
determined to snatch up the child, with
which he was unable to part when he
should overtake the little flock. When
he came up to them, about 200 yards
from his house, he was unable to make
a choice, or to leave any one of the
number. He therefore determined to
take his lot with them, and to defend
them from their murderers, or die by
their side. A "body of the Indians pur
sued, and came up with him—and from
near distance fired upon him and his lit
tle company. He returned the fire, and
retreated, alternately. For more than a
mile he kept so resolute a face to his
enemy, retiring in the rear of his charge
—returning the fire eff the savages so of
ten, and w ith so good success—and shel
tered so effectually his terrified com
panions, that Ire finally lodged them all,
safe from the pursuing butchers in a dis
tant house. When it is remembered
how numehtus his assailants were—how
bold, when an overmatch for their ene
mies—how active—and what excellent
marksmen—a devout mind will consider
the hand of Providence as unusually visi
ble in the preservation of this family.
Another party of the Indiars entered
the house immediately after Mr. Dustan
had quitted it, and found Mrs. Dustan and
her nurse, who was attempting to fly With
the infant in her arms. Mrs. Dustan
they ordered to rise instantly ; and he-' 1
fore she could completely dress herself,
obliged her and her companion to quit
the house after they had plundered it
and set it on fire. In company with se
veral other captives, they began their
march into the wilderness, she feeble,
sick, terrified beyond measure, partially
clad, one of her feet bare, nnd the sea
son utterly unfit for comfortable travel
ling. The air was chilly and keen', and
theearth. covered alternately with snow
and deep mud. Her Conductors were
unfeeling, insolent, and revengeful.—
Murder was their glory and torture their
sport. Her infant wa9 in her nurse's
arms; nnd infants were the customary
victims of savage babarity.
The company had proceeded but a
short distance when an Indian, thinking
it an incumbrance, took the child out of
the nurse’s arms and dashed its head a
gainst a tree—What were then the feel
ings of the mother ?
Such of the other captives as began
to be weary, and to lag, the Indians to
mahawked. The slaughter was notan
act of revenge or cruelty. It was a
mere convenience ; an effort so famili
ar, as not even to excite an emotion
Feeble as Mr. Dustan was, both she
and her nurse sustained, without yield
ing, the fatigue of the journey. Their
intense distress for the death of the child,
and of their companions ; anxiety for
those whom they had left behind, the
unceasing terror for themselves, raised
these nnhappy women to such a degree
of vigor, that notwithstanding their f,
tigue, their exposure to cold, their suf
ferance of hunger, and their sleeping on
damp ground under an inclement sky,
they finished an expedition of ahont one
hutirded nnd fifty miles, without losing
their spirits or injuring their health.
The wigwam to which they were con
ducted, arid which belonged td the sa
vage, tvho had claimed them as his pro
perty, was inhabited by twelve persons
In the month of April this family set out
with their captives for a settlement still
more remote ; and informed them, that
when they arrived at the settlement, they
must be stripped, scourged, and run the
gauntlet, naked, between two files of In
dians, containing the whole number
found in the settlement; fur such they
declared was the standing custom of their
nation. This information, you will be
lieve, made a deep impression on the
minds of the captive women ; nnd led
them, irresistibly, to devise all the pos
sihle means of escape. On the 31st of
the same month, very early in the morn
ing, Mrs. Dustan, while the Indians were
•asleep, having awaked her nurse, and a
fellow prisoner, (a youth taken some
time before from Worcester,) dispatch
ed, with the assistance of her compan
ions, ten of the twelve Indians. The o-
tlter two escaped. With the scalps of
those savages, they returned through the
wildetncy; ; a nd having arrived safely
at IJaverhHj < and afterwards at Boston,
received a ha^some reward for their
intrepid conduct tv-qn the legislature.
Whether all their suffering*, and all
the danger of suffering anew justified this
slaughter, may probably be questioned
hy you, or some other exact moralist,—
Precedents innumerable, and ot high*
authority, may, indeed, he urged in be
half of these captives, but the moralist
will equally question the rectitude ot
these. Few persons, however, agoniz
ing, a9 Mrs. Dustan did under the evils
she had already suffered, and in the full
apprehension of those which she was
destined to sutler, would have been able
to act the part of nice casuits : and lew-
er still, perhaps, would have exercised
her intrepidity. That she herself ap
proved of the conduct, which was ap
plauded by the magistrates and divines
of that day, in the cool hour of delibera
tion, cannot he doubled. 'J he truth is :
the season of Indian invasion, burning,
butchering, captivity, threatening, and
torture, is art unfortunate time for nice
investigation, nnd critical moralizing.—
A wife, tvho had just seen Iter house
burnt, her infant dashed against tr tree,
and her companions coldly murdered
one by one ; who supposed her hus
band and her remaining children to have
shared the same fate ; who was threat- <
ened with torture, anti indecency more,
painful than torture ; and who did not
entertain a doubt that the threatening
would he fulfiled ; would probably feel
no necessity, when she found it in her
power to dispatch the authors of her suf
ferings, of asking questions concerning
any thing, hut the success of the enter-
prize.
But, whatever may be thought of the
rectitude of her Conduct, that of her hus
band in every view is honorable. A finer
succession of scenes for the pencil was
hardly ever presented to the eve, than
Was furnished hy the efforts of this gal
lant man, with their interesting appen
dages. The artist must be destitute of
talents, who could tint engross every
heart, as Well ns every eye, hy exhibi
tions of this hush m3 and father, thing
to rescue his wile, her infant, nnd her
nurse, from the approaching horde of
savages ; attempting on his horse to se
lect from his flung family the child,
which he was the least aide to spare, &
unable to make the selection ; faring in
their rear the horde of hell hounds ; al
ternately and sternly retreating behind
his inestimable charge, and fronting the
enemy again ; receiving and returning
their fire, and presenting himself equal
ly as a barrier against murderers, ami a
(shelter to the flight of innocence and an
guish. In the hack ground of some or
other of these pictures, might he exhi
bited, with powerful impression, the
kindled dwelling, the sickly mother ; the
terrified nurse, with the new-horn infant
in her arms ; and the furious natives
surrounding them, driving them forward,
and displaying the trophies ofsavage vic
tory, and the insolence of a savage tri-

T HE recent acquisition of the Florida3,
has been hailed throughout tb#. Union,
as the attainment of an all important politi
cal desideratum. For although sume object
to the terms, none hesitate as th Hie neces
sity for the purchase. As yet, we know lit
tle or nothing of the bountry, and can make
hut very imperfect estimates—we have an
indistinct, undefined idea of its relative, Poli-
eafand Commercial importance.—but we are
almost wholly ignorant of its Soil and Cli
mate—we know that it connects and com
pletes our Atlantic Seaboard from Passu
maqooddy to the Sabine,—we know that it
affords several excellent Harbors—we know
that it effectually excludes foreign influence,
from the councils of various warlike and
mischievous tribes of Indians—but we wish
further to know, what ate its Agricultural
advantages—what the character of its soil—
what its produce—what the temperature and
influence of its climate—its Geography—its
Topography, its political ami natural Histo
