For Richard II. Wilde,
William C. Lyman,
We have no doubt that Mr. Wilde ha
succeeded throughout the State, by an o-
verwhclming majority. In this county
not one hall'of the usual number of votes
were given in, in consequence of tlic incle
ment state of the weather. Had it been a
fair day there would hnvo been a general
turn-out and notwithstanding the combi
nation formed by the friends of Jackson
and Adams, Mr Wilde would have beaten
his opponent three to one.
TI1E PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE.
Should there be no failure of the north
^rn mail, we shall, in all probability, re
ceive the Pi ^ aleuts Message to the second
session of the Eighteenth Congress, this
evening. Should it come to hand,no time
will be lost iu laying it before our readers,
State Legislature.—On Friday last, ar
ticles of impeachment were reported by
the committee, in the TTonsc of Represen
tatives agnihst John Loving, SamuelJnck-
son and' F. F. Adrian Commissioners for j
selling fractions in'the counties of Walton,
Gwinnett, Hall, ITuborshmn and Rabun.
The report of the Connnitta on this sub
ject dechups, that there wore placed in the
hands of the above named persons 090
blank grants—that the number of 230 on
ly have, been accounted for, and that the
remaining grants said commissioners re
fuse to return or account for, although
positively required so to do by the Govern
or—that there is still in the hands of the
said commissioners tlic sum of $8731 90
received be the'said commissioners arising
by tlie sale of the fractions which have
been accounted for, whie.li sum said com

armed vessels, and by indiscriminate
daughter to remove all chance of detec
tion! A Commerce liable to such risks
cannot lie prosecuted, merchants will be
unwilling to expose their property, and
seamen will not be willing to jeopardize
their lives. jjSP
We have thus briefly stated the evils
which threaten not only our direct trade
to Cuba, but also ouy commerce to cyory
part of the Gulf of Mexico; it is not too
much to say that- they are too grent to bo
endured; nnd confiding in the wisdotn fttid
justice of your Honorable Body, we pray
that suitable and effectual measures may
be speedily devised to remove them.
Wc would respectfully submit to the
consideration of Congress whether it
would not be expedient that a law should
bo passed authorising merchant vessels to
arm for their own protection, under such
regulations, ami with such rules for their
government as may appe.ar necessary,and
which may nvoid the danger of commit
ting tlic peace of the nation to the discre
tion of individuals—and that tho squadron
on the ( 'uba station should be reinforced,
that dccoy-vcssels should be employed,
and flint tlic ships of war bo furnished with
additional launches and boats calculated
to puT-sue the pirates, into their retreats and
fastnesses.
Wc would further suggest, that the
President of the U. States be requested to
make suitable remonstrances to tho gov
ernment of Spain, nnd to the authorities
of Cuba, relative to the piracies Committed
on American vessels, and tho murder of
their crews, by pbrsons issuing from tho
shores of that Island, and to state mostex-
plicitly that if the evils arc not removed,
they will be held liablo for tho consequen
ces.
Should sitoh rcmftnstrances be made,
and should they bo ineffectual, the citizens
of N. York pledge themselves to support
their government in any ulterior aiepsurcs
which maybe necessary,even if they Should

BIOGRAPHY OF EMINENT MftN.
RICHARD MONTGOMERY.
Richard Montgomery, a Major General
in the army of the U. States, in the Revo
lutionary war, was born in the north of
Ireland in the year 1727. He possessed
an excellent genius, which was matured
by a fine education. Entering the urmy
of Great Britain, lie successfully fought
her battles with Wolfe, at Quebec, 1759
and on the very spot, where he was doom
ed to fall, when fighting against her under
the banners of freedom.—After his return
to England’, lie quitted his regiment in
1772, though in a fair way to preferment.
He had imbibed am attachment to Ameri
ca, viewing it ns the rising seat of arts and
1 not fallen to pieces. It appears to
ivc been of a rough suucturc, With a sd-
r plate on its lid. There was no insorip^
ioil visible on (lit; plate: The anatomy
in a perfect state of preservation,
'lie skeleton of the bond with the excep
tion of the under jaw, which was shot
away, was perfect. Three teeth" ol the
Wilder jaw Were together.
The remains were taken up with great
care by colonel Livingston, and secured
by-binding a turpiuding dose• round the
old coffin, and enclosing them in an iron
bound chest, i-i V • V-'
At Troy they took them fro'm tho box
and tnr cloth, nml enclosed them, together
with tho original coffin, in a most splendid
mahogany coffin with the following ins
cription elegantly en g raved-upon a silver
plate, placed on its lid :

THE SEASON.—The beautiful idea
of the poet, of “winter lingering in the lap
of .'Fay," is at this time completely trans-
Jioapid in pur climate, for May is smiling
arms of December. Our Ther-
?ters are more than 3U degrees above
ihe usual freezing'point of" the season.
The grass begins to dress itself in green—
"the sweet jessamine and woodbine in the
Sard ens of our city have expanded their
fragrant leaves, and present to our view
•full bloom flowers—the rose partially cov
ers its stems with luxuriant leaves, arid the
ijufunt bud of Flora’s favorite modesty,
begins to peep forth through the slieltcr-
.-ing foliage—the trees of every description
.■start their buds to join the jubilee—the
peach is in full bloom, and the mocking
bird the early messenger of spring, cliaunts
forth her praises for the continuance of
mild and congenial airs.

of the XJ. States lit Congress assembled.
The citizens of New York solicit the
attention of your honorable body ns a Sub
ject of the deepest interest, affecting c-
qually the commerce and revenue of the
nation, the lives of our citizens, nnd the
property of a most respectable class of
merchants.
The trade to the Island of Cuba has for
many years been increasing, nnd has now
becomfe one of the most ViJunble branches
of our foreign commerce hi its importance
to the Union. It is not inferior to our
trade with Franco and all her colonies,
It is a most advantageous imuket fot onr
produce and manufactures, furnishes us
itli many useful articles of consumption,
employs a vast amount of American ton
nage, is’ 'a nursery for onr, seamen, rind
ields a large revenue to our treasury.
The following resolution was introduced
the Seriate of South Carolina on tlic
4th nist. and passed:—
Resolved, That the legislature now in
epssion do renew the invitation already
tendered by the governor to Gen. La Fay-
et’c , that lie would honor this state with
his welcome presence', that ho be received
throughput our borders with the honors
that were paid to the immortal Washing
ton; and that the executive," in conjunction
with such municipal authorities as may be
disposed to co-operate with him, do pro
vide lor his reception and residence while
(among us, in a manner worthy oi'his great
merits, in accordance with the dignity
and in unison with the feelings ot this
state.
M hat ip our Legislature atlililledgeville
doing? Will they not pay some tribute of
respect to dtp vcacrublo and beloved Lu
try he purchased ati estate in Ncw-York,
about an hundred miles from the city, and
married a daughter of Judge Livingston.
He now considered himself os an Ameri
can.—When the struggle with Great Bri
tain commenced, fts he wns known to have
an ardent attachment to Liberty, and hud
expressed his readiness to draw his sword
on the side of the colonies, the command
of the continental forces in the .northern
department was entrusted to him nnd
General Schuyler, the chief cotnmnnd de
volved upon him in October.—He reduc
ed Fort Chuniblv, and on the third of No-
' 12th,
vernber, captured St. Johns.'On the IS
he took Montreal. Leaving a few troops
.This trade was prosecuted until within n
few years past with but little interruption:
but in consequence of wars between the
different Spahish provinces, which have
had the effect greatly to weaken the sense
of moral obligations, and from a partial
suppression of the Spanish Slave Trade,
many ferocious spirits have been put out
of eriiployment, and a class of men have
arisen, nnd located themselves indifferent
parts of that Island, who seem, by their
robberies and their cruelties, to emulate
the Buccaneers of former times.
The piracies of these men were confin
ed for, a time principally to plttnderingour
vessels, nnd maltreating our seamen. By
the exertions of tlie naval force under the
command of Com. Porter, tljpir atroci-
ics were rendered Tcss frequent, and a
hope was entertained that- they would be
entirely discontinued; but this hope lias
proved delusive. The necessary with
drawal of our ships of war during the sick
ly season, the supinencss or connivance of
the locnl authorities of Cuba, and the im
becility of thfeSppnish government, have
conspired to renew the piratical system
with increased activity and horror :■ whole
crews have been recently murdered, their
vessels burnt and their cargoes plundered,
and in some instances openly sold at the
Matanzasor the Havana.
Without some protection to this trade
more efficacious than any that has yet been
afforded, and better adapted to repel the
attacks of these abandoned men, we are
apprehensivetlmt this great branch of out
foreign commerce and the revenues aris
ing from it, will he materially diminished
It is a lawful commerce, apd cur citizens
in Montreal, lie despatched severnl detach
ments into the province, encouraging the
Canadians to forward on provisions, and
proceeded with the expedition to Quebec.
He formed a junction at Point-Aux-Trem-
hlcs, with Col. Arnold, who had been des
patched through the wilderness with ,a
body of troops from the.American army
at Cambridge. Tlie combined' forces
commenced ,the siege of tlic capitol,on the
1 st of December,prior to which General
Montgomery sent a summons to Governor
Carlton to surrender, in order to avoid the
Jiorrors of a storm. The flag was fired
upon nnd returned. Means, however,
were devised, by which the summons was
conveyed to the inhabitants, but Carlton
evinced astonishing inflexibility and ftrrii
ness of mind, on this trying occasion
The boriihrirdmcnt was soon after begun
from fivc small mortars, blit with very lit
tle effect. In a few days General Mont
gomery opened a six gun battery, about
700 yqrds distant from the walls, hut his
pieces were of too small a calibre to make
any impression. Convinced that the siege
mfist soon be raised, or the plnce he storm
ed, he concluded, on thri latter, nltho’ he
esteemed success but barely within the
grasp ; of possibility. lie was i
adopt this measure in order to meet the
expectations of the whole colonies, who
looked up to him for tlie speedy reduction
of that province, which would he complet
ed by the reduction of that' copital. .The
upper town was strongly fortified; the ac
cess to which from thri |ower town was.
very difficult on account of its almost per
pendicular steepness. His confidence in
the ardour of his troops, and a thirst-for
glory, induced him to make the assault or
perish in the 1 attempt. The garrison of
Quebec consisted of about 1.520 men, viz:
800 militia, arid 450 seamen, and the re-
without any kind of distinction whatever
at the corner of the powder house, near
Port Lewis. The. Lieut. Gov. of Quebec
Mr Cramcho. haVing served With httpSn
the British army, was induced by tho per
suasions ofalady.who wus afterwards Mrs
aniclic, to order him ri coffin, but made
iiitlie roughest manner. The other offi
cers were indiscriminately thrown with
their clothes on Into the same graves with
their men. ' As there wns a great quantity
of snow on the ground, and the earth was
frozen Very hard, it was impossible to dig
the graves very "deep, and of course the bo
dies were slightly covered.' On the thaw
ing of the snow hi the ensuing spring, they
were, however,ngaiu brined, on Gen.Carl
ton’s being made acquainted with |hc cir
cumstance.
He was thirty eight years of age
Ho was a man of great mditury talents,
whose measures were taken withjudgmcnt
and executed with vigor. With undisci-
plincd'troops, who were jealousof him in
extreme, he yet inspired them with liis
own enthusiasm. He sharcd.witli them in
all their hardships, and thus prevented
their complaints. Ilis industry could not
be wearied, his vigilance imposed upon
nor his courage inundated. Abovo the
pride of opinion, when a measure wa9 a-
dopted by the majority, though contrary
to his judgment, lie gave-it its full support.
The following churucter of Goncrnl
Montgomery, we copy from Ramsay
History of the American Revolution:—
“Few men linve ever fallen in battle, so
much regretted by both sides as Gen.
Montgomery. His many amiable qualities
had procured him nn uncommon share of
private offcction, and his great abilities
nil equal proportion of public esteem.
Being a sincere lover of liberty; lie lmd
engaged in the Amcri. cause from princi
ple, and quitted the enjoyment of an easy*
fortune, and the highest domestic felicity,
to trike nn active share in the fatigues and
dangers of war, instituted for tho defcuce
of the community of which he was .an n-
dopted member. His well known char
acter was almost equally esteemed-by the
friends arid foes of-the side which ho brio
espoused. In America, he was celebrated
as a martyr to tlie liberties of mankind :
in Grent Britian, as a misguided good
man, sacrificed to what lie supposed to he
the rights of his country. His name was
mentioned in parliament with singular re
spect. Some of tlic most powerful speak
ers in that assembly,- displayed their elo
quence in sounding his praise, and lamen
ting his fate. ■ Those iri particular who
had been his fellow soldiers in the previous
war, expatiated on his many virtues. The
minister himself acknowledged his worth,
while he reprobated the cause for . which
lio ’fellj lie concluded an involuntary
princgyric;hy saying, “Curse on liis vir
tues, they Iwvc undone liis eouutry.”
To express the high sense entertained
by his country, of liis services, Congress
directed a liionumcnt of white marble,
With tlie following inscription on it, and
which was placed in front of St. Paul’s
Cliurrili, Ncw-York.

nY.THF. ENITED STATES.
This patriotic act of the state of Now
York, redounds much to Its honor.
The following juBt remarks were made
in the Albany Register on this occasion.
“The hallowed remains of our beloved
Mon goriiery are removed from a foreign
land, wliere for near 42 years, they have
reposed ‘ ttnlcnounng au l unknown.’ From
ali the busy would who have listened to a
relation ofhi9 patriotism, his devotion nnd
liis vnlor, frorp the host of thousands, who
saw with nmnzonient the might of his
Herculean nrm, when raised in the cause
of liberty, one, one only, could point to the
sod, under whose favored pall our hero
s|cpt. That country to which his manly
and generous soul wns so exclusively do-
vovoted, 1ms received hjs decayed frag
ments of-mortality to its bosom. In con
signing those sacred manes to the protec
tion of our common "mother, a grateful
people will cherish in their hearts a sweet
remembrance of his virtues, with un cm
bittcred regret ut liis uhtimely fate.
4 Wc have now, in relation to one of the
Fathers of onr country, redeemed onr
character from tlic imputation of ingrati'
tude. All this was due to the bereaved
disconsolate and venerable companion of
our fallen chieftain’s bosom, and infinitely
more wns due to the memory nnd remains
of the devoted martyr, on the 6acred and
imperishable altar of freedom.
4 Tho age stricken widow of our hero
yet lives to sec the loved remains of her’s
nnd her country’s Montgomery, removed
from thc’plnins of the crimsoned Abraham
and deposited in the bowels of a country
at the shrine of whose welfare he proffer
ed all the wnrmth of his soul, all the ener
gies of his miml and all the mightiness of
bis strength.’
