Extract from an oration ly Edward Everett.
“Time would fail me to recount the horrors
of the ninth of July, 1705. Washington,
emaciated—reduced by fatigue and fever—had
joined the army. lie implored the ill-starred
genera! to send forward the Virginia Rangere
to scour the forest in advance; he besought him
to conciliate tha Indians. His counsels were
unheeded; the wretched commander moved
forward to his fate. Washington wns often
hoard to say, in the course of his lifetime, that
the most beautiful spectacle he had ever wit
nessed, was tiiat of the British troops on this
eventful morning. The whole detachment was
clad in uniform, and moved as in a review, in
regular columns, to the sound of martial music.
The sun gleamed upon their burnished arms,
the placid Monongaheia flowed upon their right,
and the deep native forest overshadowed them
with solemn grandeur, on their left. It was a
bright midsummer’s day, and every bosom

lie was every where in the hottest of tho fight.
“I expected every moment” said Dr. Cruik. his
friend, “to see him fall.” His voice was Ihe
only one which commanded obedience. Two
horses were killed under him, and four bullets
passed through bis garments. No common for
tune-preserved his life. Fifteen years after the
battle, Washington made a journey to the great
Kenhawa, accompanied by Dr. Craik. Whdo
exploring the tvilderness, a band of Indians
approached them, headed by a venerable chief.
He told them, by an interpreter, the errand on
which he came. “I come, said ho, to behold
my great father Washington. I have come a
long way to see him.- I was with the French
tn the battle of Monongaheia. I saw my great
father on horseback, in the hottest of the battle.
I fired my rifle at him many times, and bade
my young men also fire their rifles at him. But
the Great Spirit turned away the bullets; and I
saw that mv great father could not be killed in
battle.” This anecdote rests on the authority
of Dr. Craik, the comrade and f riend of Wash
ington, the physician who closed his eyes. Who
needs doubt it? Six balls took effect on his
horses and in bis garments. Who dot •
