“But tin; moitt hrilliiint artion of Wayne's
life and tlie most illiuttrutive ol'lim t-lmracter
wastin’ Storming of Stony Point. Washing
ton at Wayne’s request had u r,or|->,
ot'lisjht inl'.uitry, and put him over it with di
recsiaas to take tliis slronghohl. Thislortress
was apparently tinpreo ‘able to nnv storming
party; t'or. situated on a hill it v.is wished
t*y tlie Hudson on two sides while on tlie oth- I
er lay a marsh which every tide overflowed. 1
Beside these natural dtdeucts a double row
o(attaUis surrounded the entire lull and on
tlie top were hi_jli ramparts bri duigwith (Mil
lion. Six hundred veteran truopt garrisoaed .
tais rock ; sullieieiit one would think, to de
fend it against live limes the number. But it
was no common obstacle that could Jeter
Wayne when his mind was once inn le up and
he determined I'oimida'oie as it \v: 1■- to execute i
the task assigned linn or perish m the attempt, j
It is said that while conversing with Wash
ington on tiie proposed expedition he remark
ed : ‘ General, ii'you will only plan it 1 will i
storm //—/.”
” lie “areluily reconnoitered the ground ‘
and having asrertnined the exact posiiion ol’
things ibnned his plan of attack. On the 15th j
o:'July. 17"’J lie started from Sandy Beach,
fourteen milts distant, and at eight in the
evenimr arrived witliin a nuie un i a half of
. tin fortress, it was now twilight : and the
nul l summer -'Veiling witii its cooling breeze
stole over the water —tile stars came out one
by oae on the sky. a id the tranquil river flow
ed hy m m ijestie silence and all was sweet
and peaceful. While nature was thus repos
ing m beauty around him Wayne with ins
, strong soul wrought up to the task before him
stood ill tlie gathering shades of tlie evening,
and gazed long and anxiously in the direction
of the fort.
*■ Over hills, across morasses and along the
broken shores of the Hudson lie had led liis
little army noiselessly in Indian file, and now
waited for the deepening night to lock his en- ‘•
: emies in slumber. Htill undiscovered by the
garrison lie began to reconnoitre the works
more closely and nt Imlf-pnst < leven put ins
columns in motion. He divided his army into
two portions one of which was to enter the |
fortress on the right, and tlie other on the left,
ill advance ol each went a forlorn-hope of
twenty men. to remove the pile of rubbish
ill it were stretched in double rows around the
rocs and placed just win re tiie hatterii s
1 could mow down the assailants fastest. Be
! hind these iinlorn-liopi s marched two compa
nies ol a hundred and li It y men each. Wayne
knew that everything must rest on the liayo
| net and so he ordered the load of every mus
ket of those two companies lo be drawn while
tlie first in.m who should take his trout lus
j shoulder or utter a word without orders o. at
tempt to retreat was to be put lo death by the
officer nearest him. Silently these devoted
i hands submitted to the desjicrate measures
and fixing a pace of white paper in their caps
to distinguish them from the enemy gillantiy
moved lurward at the low word of command.
At midnight the two columns h- nd-'d by their
I forlorn-hopes, came in sight of the lo tress, n
iong whose dark ramparts tiie sentinel was ln
; zily treading his accustomed round while tin
deep • Ali's! well’ fell faintly on the listening
< ear. Gi nil and still the huge black rock l-join
i ed up against the sky soon to shake with its
own thunder and stand a blazing vol ano in
tlie inid-uight Heavens. N nsle. sand swift
the fearless patriots kept on their way. when
j lo! as they came to the marsh they saw only
a smooth sheet of water —the tide was up lluisi
ing the whole ground ; the brave fellows paus
ed a moment as tins new arid unexpected ob
i stiude crossed their path, but nt the stern
forward’ ol their leaders they boldly plunged
jin, und without a drum or bugle note to cheer
i their steady courage, moved in dead silence i
i straight im the palisades. Tlie noise had now
■ alarmed the sentinels and the rapid discharge ;
lof their muskets through the gloom, ivas fol
lowed by lights, moving swiftly along tlie i
| ramparts and hurried shouts of 7% urnut !to
‘ arm* e and the fierce roll of drums, muring
up the garrison from its dream of security. —
i'he next moment that -lark rock was one mass

with them, they pretend to he of'l urkisli de

are tall, strong of slender mak and of fair
, complexion even those who have their ramps
in the neighborhood of Timbe-ton with the

and their teeth are. genet.illy speaking, of
great beauty. They wear long mustaches,
in Turkish iashion and upon the summit of
their shaven heads a tuft of hair, which they
never crop, and fashion into a braid when it
becomes too long: the use of ear-rings is uni
versal. In case ol net and, they tin be extreme

trade as those of the north. Their country
however, affords them corn and grain ; ll.eir

In a material sense, more fortunate than

Singular Anecdote.
Several years ago a charity sermon was
; preached in a dissenting chapel in the west
of England. When the preacher ascended
ill ■ pulpit, h thus addressed the hearers—“My
brethren lie ore proceeding to the dutesofthis
evening allow lue to relate a short anecdote.
Many years have elpscd since I was last with
in the wallsof this house. Upon that evening,
among the hearers came three men with the
internum of not only scoffing at the minister,
Inn with tlieir pockets filled with stones for the
purpose of assaulting him. Alterhe had spok
en a few sentences, one said, ‘D—n him, let us
be ut himnowf but the second replied. No stop
till we hear what lie makes of this point.’—
The minister went on. when the second said.
■ We’ve heard enough now, throw 1” but the
tlin'd inti fi red, saying. Tie’s not so foolish as
I exjii cteil — let ns hear himout.’ The preach
er concluded without being interrupted. Now,
mark me, my bretiiern—-of these three men,
one was executed three months ago at New
gate. lor forgery, the second, this moment, lies
under the sentence of death, in the goal of
this city, lbr murder—the other (continued the
minister with great emotion) —me third, thro’
the infinite goodness of god. is even now about
to address you—listen to him!”
