? cannot forbear giving you .-m Instance of a
guilt-formed |iliantom which made considerable
noise about twenty years ago or more, lam,
I think, tolerably correct in the details, though]
I Jiavc lost the account of the trial. Jarvis
Matcham —such, if 1 am not mistaken, was the
name of my hero —was pay sergeant in a regi
ment, where lie was so highly esteemed as a
steady and accurate man, that ho was permitted!
opportunity to embezzle a considerable part of
Ibe money lodged in his hands for pay of sol
diers, bounty of recruits, then a large sum, and
other charges within his duty. lie was sum
moned to join his regiment from a town where
he had boon on a recruiting service, and this,
iKM'baps, under some shade of suspicion. Match
mu jmrccived that discovery was at hand, and
would have then deserted, had it not been lor the
presence of a little drummer lad, who was the
only one of his party appointed to attend him.
In the desperation of his crime, he resolved to
murder the poor boy, and make his escape, lie
meditated this wickedness the more readily, that
the drummer, as he thought, had been pul as a
«pv on him. lie perpetrated this crime, and
changing his dress after the deed was done,
made a long walk across the country loan inn
en the Portsmouth road, where he halted and
wont to bed, desiring to be called when the first
Portsmouth coach came. The waiter summon
ed him accordingly ; but long after remember
ed, that when he shook the guest by the shoul
der, his first words as he awoke were, “ .My Clod!
J did not kill him.”
Matcham went to the sen-port by the coach,
and instantly entered as an able bodied landsman
s>r marine, I know not which. His sobriety and
attention to duty, gained him the same good o.
pinion of the ollicers in his new service w liich he
had enjoyed in the army. He was afloat for
•several years, and behaved remarkably well in
some actions. At length the vessel came into
Plymouth, was paid oil, and some ol the crow,
amongst whom was Jarvis Matcham, was dis
diargcd as being too obi for service. He and
another seaman resolved to walk to town, and
took the road to Salisbury. It was then, within
two or three miles of this celebrated city, that
they were overtaken by a tempest so sudden,
and accompanied with such vivid lightning and
thunder so dreadful loud, that the obdurate con
science of the old sinner began to be awakened.
He expressed more terror than seemed natural
for one who was familiar with the war of ele
ments, and Itegan to look ami talk so wildly, that
his companion became aware that something
more than usual was the matter. At length
Matcham complained to his companion, that the
stones rose from the road and flew after him. He
desired the man to walk on the other side of tho
highway, to see if they would follow him when
he was alone. The sailor complied, and Malch
»nn complained that the stones still flow after
him, and did not pursue the other. “ Hut what
i* worse,” he added, coming up to his companion
and whispering, with a tone id* mystery and
fear, “ who is that little drummer boy, and what
business lias he hero to follow ns so closely.” “1
ran seenoone,” answered the seaman, infected
by the superstition of his companion. “ W hat!
not see that little boy with tho bloody panta
hs'tis ?” exclaimed the secret murderer, so much
to the teri-or of his comrade, that he conjured
him, that if he had any thing on his mind, to
make a clear conscience as far as his confes
sion could do it. The criminal let died a long
groan and declared that he was no longer able to
endure the life which he had led for years. He
Mini confessed the murder of the drummer, and
*nlded, that as a considerable reward had been
’•tiered, he wished his comrade to deliver him
’’l* to the magistrates of Salisbury, as ho would
‘it sire a shipmate to profit by his fate, which he
"ns now convinced was inevitable.
Having overcome his friend's objections to
this mode of proceeding, Jarvis Matcham was
•nrrondered to justice accordingly, and made a
full confession of gnilt. But lielbre the trial,
the love Os life returned. Tho prisoner denied
liis confession, and pleaded Not Guilty. By
fins lime. l»«»wcvor, full evidence had been pro
nired from other quarters, Mit nesses appear
'd Iroin his former regiment to prove his identi
ty with the murderer and deserter, and the wai
ter remembered the ominous words an liich he
•‘l'okc whoii he awoke him to join the Portsmouth
coach. Jarvis Matcham was found guilty and
• xecutcd. When his last chance ol lile was
over, he returned to his confession : and with
bis dying breath averred, and truly § as he tho t.
the vision on Salisbury Plains. 1
from caxfield‘s akocs.
M c see it is said that the enigma is nt last re
solved, of what becomes of the remains ol quad
rupeds, or birds that die a natural death; that as
fiieir remains are not to be found, scattered un
scpuhuretl over tho face of nature, the inquiry
"as one of interest what became of tlicm, 01
"here and how, or by what process concealed
that one person, the Count de Moutlozier
| who had folt more than usual inquisitiveness up
! on the subject, had at length prosecuted the in
quiry to something like a result. He had found,
say his Memoirs, that animals voluntarily drag
|i their expiring limbs to natural catacombs! In
;j the neighbourhood of his estate, it seems, he had
; explored all the recesses, caves, and caverns
. thal fterc known; when, one day, he accident
j ally alighted on a new one, with an entrance or
l] aperture, inconveniently small ; and on j>ene
[ bating into it, he found carcase on carcase of
hares and rabbits, all lying in the same position,
the skeletons, hair, and gristle perfect, that is to
, say, undrs'urbed; and the whole in different
stages of decay. The inference drawn by the
i writer, who is still living, is, that game and* ani
mals in a state of nature, seek ti catacomb for
their mortal remains.
Wc think, without wishing to cast the slight
est suspicion on the credibility of the relator, that
the whole story is to be received with caution.
' ; Nature never implants a useless principle in
any being of all her numerous orders; and why
the game of the moors and forests should cher
ish an instinctive desire for burial, must remain a
problem to human reason. Domestic animals
frequently secrete themselves before death, out
oftbe way of the insults and accidents from which
their filling strength can no longer protect them.
But that hares and rabbits should betake them
selves from their warrens to the mountains, to a ]
1 charnel-house of their race, mid stretch them, j
selves there, to avail the last agony, is so un
like all that we yet know of the habits of ani
mals, that it deserves lo bo scanned with mis
trust.
' The difficulty- may, however, be solved, with
' out detriment to the Count's veracity. He re
-1 marks, that he had long been occupied with the
manner in which wild animals met their death,
| and what became of their remains; and ha 6 pro
mised large rewards to gamekeepers and others,
who would bring him any animal that had diet! a
| natural death, the body of which hud been |
■ found. It is easy to suppose that the good
Count might have been hoaxed by a shrewd or
ja saucy gamekeeper, more especially, as he was
lin the habit, lie says, of exploring every cave
in the neighbourhood. He seems to be credul
ous; and it certainly must have been especial
sport for any crafty plotter to circumvent the
whim of a retired philosopher, by such an in
i venfion.
As for what becomes of tho remains of our
own game and wild animals that die a natural
death, the question seems best answered by
looking to the manner in which the operations of
nature are carried on in tho torrid zone, where
destruction and re-production exist on a scale
that is so much larger, and in a degree, so much
more rapid. Parasite plants & insects, together
with animals and birds which prey upon carrion,
are incessantly occupied in effacing the vestiges
of decay. Fungi, lichens, and mosses flourish
and embank with verdure, what else would be
a mass of corruption, unsightly and odious. The
white ant, and inuumcrahlo families of beetles
and grubs, devour what is left or forgotten hr
beasts and birds. The turkey-buzzard and
vulture in the air, tho jackal and hyena on tho
hind, and the rat under ground, live by this
1 most useful service.
If it ho that our wild animals drag themselves
into holes, or expire on tin* surface of the earth,
. there ara in either case, agents enough, in the
birds of the air, the vermin of the earth, and
, insects, to depredate immediately on tho re
mains, and remove every- (race of them from
sight. An uncommon casualty nifty sometimes
expose the vestiges of the lion’s or the tiger’s
repast; and sometimes the butcher-bird or the
raven may he scared from their feast, and the
relinks be seen : but the insects that lurk ever
ready, secretly operating to replace tho repul
sive deformity-of decay with m-w forms of ani
mation and life, work so rapidly- and surely-,
that they alone appear almost sufficient to that
end. And therefore, the morn we look at it,*
the less w ( > are inclined to subscribe to any such j
belief, as that the hares and rabbits in question,
.or anv othc vs > ever transported themselves to a
cavern for n catacomb or jntteofi, in anticipation
, of the want of a sexton.
‘ OBSERVATIONS OF AN AMERICAN SAILOH
1 IN 1 FOREIGN COUNTRY.
1 A stranger upon entering a Russian town is
, at once struck with the peculiar maimers, cus
• toms, dross and mode of doing business which
[ prevails with the inhabitants : whether you look
1 at the merchant, the mechanic or the laborer, all,
I | evorv thing, is done differently I romother people.
I The Russians arc of a middle size, rather
short than tall, robust, straight & well formed,
1 of square visage, with high cheekbones, fair
! skin, with tight, straight, often yellow hair and
. light eves, the countenances of the females ex
i pressive, generally pleasing though x'arely beau-.
I tifiil.
11 Beards are worn by all classes except by- the
. court, the military, A: a few of tho most wealthy
r and well informed merchants, who comply with
> the usages of other European nations in this re
. sped as also in dress generally. But all others
1 adhere to thoir beards with as much pertinacity
1 as if the parting with them were the deadly sin.
1 Indeed I heard an intelligent man, who spoke
I good English, a Lieutenant in thelmperial Navy,
. declare it to be his firm conviction that lie com
mitted a previous sin every time he submitted to
> the unholy operations of his barber. This he ts
» compelled often to do much against his consci
-1 cnee, bv an imperial edict requiring all the mili
tary lo shave close, there is however an exemp-
I tion in favor of tho cossacks who by esjtecial
favor are permitted to wear mustachios.
The common divssol the country consists of;
loose trowsers, a shirt of duck, or on holvdays of
calico, reaching to the knees, a waistcoat of
. coarse native cloth or of skin, and over this,
■ whether summer or winter,a lungsheepskin coat
,j dressed with the wool inside. This latter gar
-1 j mriit is cut exactly alter the fashion of those of
our N. American Indians, to wrap closely to the
P boilv, verv full in the skirt, without collar or
1 buttons, and secured around the waist by a sash
ior ffirdie. Add to this that tho countrymen like
jour Indians always wear in tho girdle an axe
similar in shape,and the resemblance is the more
striking. Such, so far as my observation ex
tends is the primitive “cut of the coat” of a!!
s barbarians in the cold climates. The country
' people in the place of boots wear a kind of shoe
v made of wood, splintered and worked into shape
v like an old Indian basket, or more frequently of
• tarred spunvarn braided, and when the snow is
r' deep they have away of protecting the legs in
. travelling, which I am sure never entered the
brain ot any but a Russian, which is to wind
, around the leg from flicthigh tothe undo a good
sized rope of hay which they twist up for the
occasion. I saw many of these “men of straw’
and the etlect produced by seeing a company of
I them travelling together in tills new uniform was
truly ludicrous—but every one to their notion,
iwe will not therefore quarrel with the Russians
for the w earing of beards or ofstraw-breeche*.
j The head dress is of velvet, red, blue, black,
or green, an immense cortCfcni, over a foot high,
i broad and square on the crown, which is stutfed
with feathers like a cushion. The hair is part
ed on the top of the head, combed back of the
cars, cut square from ear to ear, and all below
that on the head and neck shaved close.
The d res* of tho females in the country is but:
little distinguished from that of the males, except
in the head dress which is generally a srnal!
close cap or handkerchief. Those in tho towns
are fast complying with tho fashions of the neigh
boring nations, particularly tho Swedish and
Danish with whom they most frequently com
municate.
The language from its deep gutturral sounds,
is extremely harsh and unmusical, and is render
ed more unpleasant to a strange ear by their
hasty and loud utterance aided by violent and
j nnqeasing gesticulation which is much used even
j in common conversation: indeed a stranger judg
ing merely from tho sound, would mistake a
friendly greeting lor an angry dispute.
A foreigner, especially if English or Ameri
can, in passing their shops, will find himself
greatly annoyed by a dozen idle shopkeepers, j
who cap in hand, with many congees, salute hinij
in broken English something in the following!
•- O j
stylo. Hood day master —what you lutv it mas-j
ter—boots and shoes master —dials master —caps
master, very cheap master —walk in master —
look cm master —very good master, &c. iVc.
vVc. Their importunity is most provoking at all]
■times and quite insupportable if one be in haste.]
If their game be in the garb of a sailor they w ill
take greater liberties, even laying hold of his;
garments and lugging at him di lie rent ways to-;
wards their several stands.
Once enter a shop, and their anxiety- to sell
makes them wholly regardless of trouble on 1
their own part, they- shew vou every thing whe-j
theryon will or no; at thw same time recount.i
mg with astonishing volubility, considering the
little English they possess, the various virtues ofa
their various wares.
Not wishing to trouble the house for nothing, |
as the saying is, you s'leet some article which j
yen do not want, enquire the price, oiler one!
half, which to your surprise is readily accepted!!
with many thanks; you convey your “bargain”];
to your boarding house and ten lo one get laugh
ed at and justly for having paid treble its worth ]
for your toy. In short from the heads of the i
custom house down to the boy- who polishes your
boots they have the reputation, ami so far as the
writer’s experience goes, they- are honestly en
titled to it, of being the most consummate rogues ;
to be found in Christendom, destitute alike of j
honor o» honesty' in their dealings with stran- i
gers. if they- do not cheat you in auy other
way, they will be certain to do it in making
change while you remain ignorant of the cur
rency of the country. A knowledge of this is
however easily- acquired, being like our own
reckoned by decimals, viz. 100 kopecs (copper)
make one rouble equal to 20 cents, sos them
making a Spanish dollar.
Peter the (Ireat understood the character of
his people well, for when it was urged upon him |
to banish all Jews from his dominions, lest from
their well known propensity they should mono- !
polize all the wealth of tho nation ! —nonsense
—he exclaimed, let my long beards alone to
manage them, and Peter the Great was right.
There are yet Jews in Russia, hut I believe they
arc pretty generally- outjewed by the Russian j
long beards.
There arc doubtless many honorable nxeep. I
j tious to the above general characteristic. I i
should be sorry lo intimate tkcre wore not. In
deed I uni informed that there are ninny native
merchants at St. Petersburghof enlarged views,
liberal feelings, and enlightened understandings,
combined with the strictest honor and integri
ty, men in short who in their profession would
do honor to any age Or nation.
Croustadt, where the writer landed, is a mo
dem built, S*rougly walled, and fortified garri-;
son town, situated on a small low Island at the
month of the river Neva near the head of the
gulphof Finland; about 20 miles below St. P«-
tersburgh. It contains about twenty thousand
inhabitants and is usually garrisoned with about
the same number of troops. It is a principal
naval depot and one half the town consists of
public magazines and store houses situated
principally- upon the banks of a noble ship canal,
uniting by a circuit through the town of about
a mile and a half the two artificial harbors. —
These harbors are made by extended moles into
the sea of groat strength, which as well as the
canal are of hewn stone, of very superior mason
work, and are mounted at short intervals with
very long and heavy pieces of ordnance. One
of the harbors is occupied by-the men of war
and the other is devoted to the use of merchant
men. In the latter in the season of navigation
are found the flags of all nations. It is an ex
cellent karbor but too small, as with the utmost
economy of space, it seems incapable of accom
modating more shipping than at present resort
there. 1
