ANSWER TO” ANONYMOUS."*
That Moon so lovely, pensive, mild,
Which kindly teams on ev’ry wild ;
Those dismal Winds that howl along,
And grieve you with their mournful song ;
That Power divine you justly prize,
Which makes the past seem present days;
That Pope which cheers your sadden’d hours,
And strews your path with fragant dowers,
One truth to prove do all combine,
Their cause or Author was divine.
Though friends far distant, parents sage,
And home,sweet home,your thoughts engage,
Though things mundane, which must decay,
Claim your affections for a day—
Know thou this truth, if only this,
Tour thinking Soul immortal is.

WASHINGTON'S TENT.
Mr. Custis, a legatee of Washington, has in his
possession the identical tent used by the Gen
eral during the Revolutionary War, packed in
the same case in which it was formerly convey
ed. Mr. C. has tendered the use of this tent
to Col. Howard anj the Cincinnati of Mary
land during the visit of La Fayette to that state.
This circumstance elicited the following beau
tiful lines, which originally appeared in the
Bal<iir. re Morning Chronicle.
La Fayette in the Tent of Washington.
I will rest in the war-houe that shelter’d the form
Os my hero, mv friend, and my country’s pre
server—
That guarded his care-stricken head from the
storm,
That caught the warm sigh’s of the patriot’s
fervor.
I will count, by the threads that 1 find in its woof,
The throbs in his head and his heart that were
beating,
What his thoughts were when midnight enshroud
ed its roof
Retrieving defeat, or a victory greeting.
1 will sleep in the home of the soldier—and view ■
In my dreams, his achievements, unequall’d in
. .'*>■ =
My visions the hopes of my youth shall renew,
Till 1 wake to the real fruition of glory. O. !
MISCELLANY.
DF.AF AND DUMB.
Specimens of original composition by a Student
of the Hartford Deaf and Dumb Asylum, aged 16.
fin account of General George Washington's
birth, family, education , and life.
Hi* grand father was John Washington
and was tired of abiding in England and
thought that this country was pleasant for
him to live in. He therefore wen! from hi
na.ee country to America and again wen:
to Westmoreland County in Virginia, where
he bad a strong resolution to live for all his
life. General Washington’* father was Au
gustine Washington aod h died when be
wa* ten years old. General Washington
was horn on the 22d of February 1732 iu
Westmoreland County in Virginia. His
mother was a very good woman and she
took care of him to au eminent degree
AVhen he tvas fifteen years old, he went lo
a captain of a ship and besought him to be
appointed a midshipman and obtained the
Captain’s consension. When the mother
heard if, she felt anxious about him; be
cause she thought that he would he killed J
at the battle; so that she went to the same
captain and implored him that be would not
permit him to go to sea and the captain said
to her, he would with pleasure. When a
certain general wished to have a lieut. co
lonel. be heard that Geu. W. was a brave
citizen. When Geo. Washington si
twenty years old, the general appointed hint
a lieut. colonel. Some years after, he was
again appointed a colonel, and courageous
ly beat the French anti Indians. Our Eng
lish ancestors were greatly displeased with
the United States. The king of England
sent the English soldiers who were super!-
onr to the American soldiers m abundance.
They came to get their capture of the cit
ies of America. George Washington imme
diately collected the American soldiers who
were all farmers; however they were very
courageous. George Washington fought
against the mother country very difficultly
during eight years and his endeavours were
great. Cut at leogth be successfully de
feated the English. The people of this
country were pleased with him ; so that
they appointed him President of the United
States, and he governed the United States
very well during eight years. After eight
years, he refused to take care of America
longer; and returned to Alotmt Vernon.
In every morning be was very attentive iD
attending to the abundance of the fruits on
an estate and beasts. He always took care
of them, these w ere very beautiful and fer
tile. When be was out of his house, a
light rain tnoisteoed his hair and neck.
Then he returned to his house in the eve
ning and became very sick aud his wind
pipe was caught with a pain and a difficult
deglutition which caused him a fever. At
eleven o’clock in the day, December the
14th, he died without fear. The sorrow of
bis death went through the United States,
and they all mourned a great deal; because
they loved him very much and thought
their father bad defended them against
Great Britain.
The Thanks of the Deaf and Dumb to the
publick.
In the United States there were a great
abundance _of schools for children ; but
there were none places of instruction for
tbp deaf and dumb. All the parents
thought, that their deaf and dumb sons and
daughters were impossible to learn how to
read and write an,) were grieved with them.
Fortunately the Kind Being brought Mr.
Gallaudet to France; on the purpose for
learning how to teach the Deaf and Dumb.
When Mr. Gallaudet applied to Mr. Clerc
to come to this country, and incited Mr.
Clerc to think those poor deaf and dnmb
had no idea of God and Christ and then his
consent made Mr. Gallaudet pleasant.
They came to the western country by wa
ter and arrived in it. They prayed to the
.citizens aod countrymen to give them mon
'ey for the Asylum and the generous con
-1 tributed to the helps of the American Asy
lum. It was worthy that they were benev
olent; so that all the deaf and dumb are
thankful to them and think God will prompt
the properties of the citizens and send the
rain to pour out over the farms of the coun
trymen ; to provide them fruits and live in
happiness. We are sorry that they visit
the Asylum but little; before they came
frequently to attend schools, and if they
pass through Hartford and stay at the ho
tel, they should come to see it; that they
might wonder at seeing the deaf and dumb
writing on slates and talking each other by
making signs.
HORRORS OF WAR.
From Recollections of the Peninsula War—By
a young English Officer.
Speaking of one of the British brigades
which was engaged on this occasion, our
author observes—
“ 1 saw it at three in the afternoon—a captain
commanded the brigade ; the 57th and 4tith reg
iments were commanded hy lieutenants, and the
junior captain of the 29th regiment was the sen
ior effective officer of hi- corps. Not one of these
six regiments (which formed the Brigade) lost a
man by the sabre or the lance : they were never
driven, never thrown into confusion ; they fought
in line, sustaining and replying to a heavy fire,
and often charging j and when the enemy at
length fled, the standards of these heroick battal
lions flew in proud though mournful triumph in
the centre of their weakened but victorious lines.
“ 1 remember well, as we moved down in col
umn, shot and shell flew over and through it in
quick succession ; we sustained little injury from
either, but a captain of the 29th had been dread
fully lacerated by a ball, and lay directly in our
path. We passed close to him, and he knew us
all ; and the heart-rending tone in which he called
on us for water, or to kill him, 1 shall never for
get. He lay alone, and we were in motion, and
could give him no succour. When we arrived
near the discomfited and retiring Spaniards, a very
noble looking young Spanish offiaer rode up to me
aud begged me with a sort of proud and brave anx
iety, to explain to the English, that his country
men were ordered to retire, but were not flying.”
“ The coolest and bravest soldier, if lie be in
the heat of it, can make no calculation of time
during an engagement. Interested and animated,
he marks not the flight of hours.
Our author’s own regiment was now
brought forward to the scene of action :
li To describe my feelings throughout this wild
scene with fidelity would be impossible ; at inter
vals a shriek or a groan told that men were falling
around me ; bm it was not always that the tumult
ot the contest suffered me to catch these sounds.
A constant tailing to the centre, & the gradual di
minutioo oi our front, more truly bespoke the
havock of death. As we moved, though slowly,
yet ever a little in advance, our own killed and
wounded lay behind us ; but we arrived among
those of the enemy, and those of the Spaniards |
who had fallen in the first onset; w'e trod among i
the dead and dying, ail reckless of them. But j
haw shall 1 picture the British soldier going into \
action? He is neither heated by brandy, stimu
lated by the hope of plunder, nor inflamed by the !
deadly feelings of revenge ; lie does not even in
dulge in expressions of animosity against his foes ;
he moves forward confident of victory, never j
dreams of the possibility of defeat, and braves j
death with all the accompanying horrors of lace- j
ration and torture, with the most cheerful intre- |
pidity. Enough of joy and triumph. The roar
of the battle is bushed ; the hurry of action is over;
let us walk over the corpse-encumbered field.—
Behold thousands of slain, thousands of wounded
writhing with anguish and groaning with agony
and despair. .Move a little this way ; here lie
four officers of the French hundredth, all corpses.
Why, that boy cannot have numbered 18 years.
Here fought the third brigade—here the fusileers : I
how thick these heroes lie ! most of the bodies |
are already stripped ; rank is no longer distin
guished. Here charged the Polish lancers; not
loug ago, the trampling of horses, the cry, the’
prayer, the death-stroke, all mingled their wild !
sounds on this spot ; it is now, but for a few fitful
and stifled groans, as silent as the grave.—Who
are these that catch every moment at our coats,
and cling to our feet in such an humble attitude ?
The wounded soldier* of the enemy, who are im
ploring British protection from tht exasperated
and revengeful Spaniards. What a proud compli
ment to our country !
“ Some readers will call this scene romantick,
others disgusting; no matter ; it is faithful ; and
it would be well for kings, politicians and gene
rals, it while they talk of victories with exultation,
and of defeats with philosophical indifference,they
would allow their fancies to wander to the theatre
of war, and the field of carnage.
” I again went down to that part of the field
which was covered with the slain -they lay ghast
ly and unburied ; here and there, indeed, yon
might remark a loose made grave, where some of
ficers and soldiers had been to perform an act of
private friendship. 1 was much struck with one
affecting though simple proof of the attachment of
our peninsula allies ; the hands of vast numbers of
the British corpses had been elapsed together in
the attitude of prayer, and placed by the Span
iards ia the manner they superstitiously imagine
it important to lay out their dead.
“ A paymaster had two sons, lieutenants in the
corps in which he served. He was a widower,
and had no relations beside these youth ; they liv
ed in his tent, were IBs pride and delight. The
civil staff of a regiment usually remain with the
baggage when the troops engage, and join them
with it afterwards. In the eveniug, when this
paymaster came up, an officer met him. “My
boys,” said the old man, “ how are they ? Have
they done their duty ?” “ They have behaved
most nobly, hut you have lost “ Which of
them ?” Alas, both !—they are numbered with
the dead.”
