Corporal, now Sergeant Haywood, 2d Dragoon*, a New Englander from Serray, New Hampshire, furnishes us with the following not.mire of bites, cape from the maunere at Carloosabatchle, which wn give nearly in bla own words. Nearly all Is oor* roVrated by ut Vr information, and tbe whole la plainly told. Tbe Sergeant Is poaitire tV Indiana dhl follow him, and that their bovedng about with* oat molcatlat Irim, was a reality—note vision. "On (V night of tV 22d of July, five of our dra* goeni were camped at I'unte Haase, and iV re mainder 17 In number, In e large hospital lent, 10 mile# uplV river, neatly half e mile from iheautler’a store.

M had a father—tbe grave la his bed t 1 had a motVr—sho sleep* with tV dead: Freely 1 wept when they left mo alone— llut 1 shed all my tears un their grave and tVir stone;— I planted a willow—I planted a yew, And left them to sleep till tV last trumpet blew I 'Fortune was mine, and l mounted Vr car— Pleasure from virtue bad beckoned me far; Onward I went, like an avalancV down, And tV sunshine of fortune was changed to a frown. 'Fortune was gone, and I took to my slda A young, and lovely, and beautiful bridal Her I entreated with coldness and acorn, Tarrying back till 1V break of tha morn | Slighting Vr kindimsa and mocking Vr feara; Casting n blight on Vr tendereat years i Sad and ne*looted and weary l left her— Birrow and care of Vrmuua bereft her— Till like a atar, wVn it falls from its pride.

This drove me down to a beach, when tho sufferings of my foci bo- coming unbearable, I tore olf part of my shirt and wound It round thum, and then want through the night walking on ibis bench, the Indians still oou- tinning near me, until about 11 o'clock the next day, when I fell down on the sund completely ex hausted. Shortly ofter, the two Indians that I first saw camo up to sumo trees cleso by, and wore joined by otVrs. I expected they would shoot me, but said to them, "why do you wish to hurt me; whenever any of you oomo to our tumps wo treat you well, and when wa take you prisoners, wa never harm vou." By this tlrao I became diaxy, and full senso- »'•, w Vre I liy unconscious for a lung time, though the sun was broiling hot. " Wlum 1 came to myself again, thu Indians wore gone, and I saw no more of them. I attri* but* my delivery lo Sampson who liked me, and I Uilnk mutt have prevailed on tit* Indians not to mur* dtr me, for I know no other reason. I 1I1011 wont on till I came to a river, down which I walked some distance, 10 hide my trail, and then crossed over and wont upinto a tree, whore I passed ilia night fighting mosquitoes, which were so thick that if I did not fan ilium ufl* would light on my face and fill themwlvss whh blood fester than I could slap my oheoks with my hands. In ihe morning I continued on to the coast, and found myself, instead of hoing on a beach, among a number of mangrove islands, wVro finding the difficulty ol’getting on beyond my strength, I returned ngaiu (Mangrove Islands, 01 Keys, are small hanks of sand ovur the cuust cover* *d at high tide, on which maugrovo buOms grow; between ihem are wide channels.

Why did Mr. Biddle at llto time of tho last suspension issue tho hill# of tlto old Bank to the amount of some milliuns of dollars? It was said at the time, that no did it because ho knew that lie would not he ob liged to redoem thorn, although ho might ho forced tup resumption of spocie payment* on tho hilts of the now Bank. This may be partially true; if so, it was a deliberate fraud. My convictions are that ho was conscious nt that period that tlto Bank was rotten, and with the "suspicions of a guilty mind," foared the public itudsome inklings of its condition. Ho therefore resorted to tho issuing of the hills of thn old Bank that ho might havo tha udvuntngo of the credit which from long familiarity, they had ac quired in the public mind. In either case the Is suing of them wus dishunest, illegal, and virtually no better than a forgery, lohnsun definos forgery to bo •• thecrlme or falsification." For this crime, Biiqjrimin Rathbun is now confined In the States, prison at Auburn. Why is it that anoth -r indivi dual whose speculations have been eqti til) wild und reckless, and whose " falsification" has boon great er than Ralhlitui's, should now bo basking in tho aliiuancc of a princely fortune, "calm ns a sum mer's morning," raising mulberry trees and silk worms hy wny ofpastimo.

It is a melancholy refioction that tho conduct of single institution, (the Bank ofthe United States,) should involve the banks generally of the Union in llto misfortune nf a suspension uf specio pnymonts. It toom* that that institution has chosen its time for a HHpension, skilfully. Four or six weeks lienee tho suspension would havo been limited to tlte Phil adelphia und Baltimore Batiks, for within Unit peri od tho Soiuhorn crop reaching tho markets of ox* lortuUoo would have completely protected the southern Banks from a drain of their specie, if they hod not suspended. In tho sius of thu mammoth institution, therefore, those who havo not boon par ties participant in her profits of her monopoly are compelled to share both the burthen and the odium.

It wn* said that only Mr. C.iicott's distillery and dwelling, and about ailoxen of other houses, escaped. It was also reported, that un unsuccessful attempt wus mude to burn Port Hope tho same night. Wo give these reports ns wo heard them. Cohourg is about 300 mile* from Montreal, and intelligence cannot woll be conveyed from one place to the other iu less thnn two days. If Cohourg was destroyed, therefore, it must have been some time in tho night ofthe 12th, to be known at Montreal on the evening of tho 14th. But wa have tlie Roches ter papers of the 15th, in which no mentionis made of any such event, and Rochester is only about 50 miles from Cubourg. It is probable, therefore, that the reports nt Montreal are unfounded.
