Advertiser.] REVOLUTIONARY REMINISCENCES, Messrs. Conner & Cook, of this city, are about to publish, as we learn, the fourth and fifth num bers of the Treasury of Knowledge, which are to be enlarged and enriched by copious Ameri can Biography, contributed by the research, and adorned by the genius of Samuel L.Knapp, Esq. the able and accomplished editor of that part of the work. To this gentleman we are indebted for the interesting memoir of Gen. Schuyler, of this State, [whose services have never been suf ficiently appreciated, either as a statesman, sol dier or patriot,] and also the copy of an au tograph letter from him to the Rhode Island re giment, which we take pleasure in transferring to our columns. Philip Schuyler, a Major General in the A merican Army, was born-at Albany in 1731, His family were respectable and opulent, and his education was liberal for the age in which he liv ed. In the war of 1755, he was an officer and served with the provincial troops until 175!) when Wolfe fell in taking Quebec. After the repose given to the colonies by the treaty of 1703, he returned to the quiet of private life, with the high respect of the Provincial and British officers. On the bioaking out of the war in 1775, only two days after the battle of Bunker Hill, he was appointedja Major General in the American Ar my, and was directed to take charge of the Nor thern forces raised from New-York and New- England, to secure the lakes and penetrate into Canada—but sickness prevented him from dis charging this great duty, and the command dc volved upon the gallant Gen. Montgomery.— His prowess, and his misfortunes sue detailed elsewhere. After he had recovered, and the ill fortunes of the campaign were known, General ■ Schuyler was assiduous on the frontier, and did; all that a wise and brave man could do to keep! : the Indians in order to prevent predatory incur sions. lie was not the first General of whom 'the country expected more than he, or any one 'could do. The New-England people had so of ten bled and fought on the frontiers, and parti cularly at Ticondoroga, that they clamored when they heard of St. Clair’s defeat. The blame was put on Schuyler, but without the slightest foundation, lie had dune all that mortal could havedoie, with his means, but these murmurs had their effects on Congress, and Schuyler was superseded by Gen. Gates. Schuyler met the crisis us a great man should, llis conduct on this occasion was above all praise—it was not tainted by any mark of resentment oi indigna tion. With the utmost complacency, but with deep feeling, he delivered ins papers and gave up tiie command to Gates, with these remarks— “ Sir, I have done all that could be done, us far as the means were in my power, to injure the ene my, and to inspire confidence in the soldiers of our army, and, I flatter myself, with some suc cess; but the palm of victory is denied me, and it is left to you, General, to reap the fruits of my labor. I will not fail, however, to second your views, and my devotion to my country, will cause me with alacrity to obey your orders.” He had performed his duty to the utmost extent, for he had been in the forest and felled the trees, broken up the roads, and thrown a thousand ob. stacles in the way of the enemy. But these facts were then unknown to New-England, who had not made particular enquiry, but who, like the mother country, placed all thing* on suc cess. After the conquest of (leu. Burgoyne, Gen. Schuyler took the British officers and their friends to his hospitable mansion, and treated them as his friends, and tried to make them for get their situation. Lady Harriet Ackland, the Baroness of Rcidesel, and the Lady Balcar rus, spoke of Gen. Schuyler, us one born to sup. port the dignity of an officer of distinction. Bur goyne himself, the proud minion of his monarch, apologised to Schuyler, for burning his splendid house a few days before his capture, and intima ted that he could not have any idea that it be longed to an officer of his rank and character. The reply was as piquant as gallant—“Makeno excuse, my dear General, for this trifling inci dent, the loss is more than compensated by the honor of meeting you at my table.” Burgoyne, always tasteful, said afterwards, that my Lord ■Chesterfield could not have surpassed this—and indeed, it had in it the essence of courtesy and keenness. History shows us but few instances of patri otism that will compare with Schuyler’s conduct. Epnminondas, deprived of the supreme com mand by the jealousy of the politicians of his city, marched to victory as a private soldier : he lived in an age of the greatest heroism ; & Scryznecki of the Boles, removed by the folly ot his countrymen, drew his sword in the ranks as a private soldier ; but Schuyler was bred in British pride of rank, when no such example had ever existed, but he had the magnanimity ta make a precedent for the good of his coun try. ll he had elamored and raved us a little man would have done, he hud so many friends that confusion would have been produced in the army, and Burgoyne might have come on tri umphantly to the city of Albany. At the close of the war, as well ns during the contest, General Schuyler was held in the high est reverence and admiration by all the officers and soldiers of the army, and by none more than by the New England troops. The Rhode Island Brigade, then under command of Major Allen, presented him a most affectionate address, which, if in existence as a document, is out of the reach of the writer of this short sketch, but the response of General Schuyler was found in his own hand writing, among the papers of Mnj. Allen, in the possession of his son, and directed “ to Captain Allen, and the other gentlemen of the Rhode Island corps, present.” The origi nal has this endorsement upon it; “ Received at Saratoga, 16th of Dec. 1783.” Saratoga, Dec. 10th, 1783. Gentlemen : The goodness of your hearts, has induced you to overrate the small services 1 have been able to render you ; most sincerely do I wish, they had been in any degree proper tionafo to your merits, or to my inclinations. The polite and sentimental manner in which you have been pleased to convey youracknow. lodgments, is another instance of that urbanity which you have so constantly and invariably evinced to be happily possessed of, and which has afforded me a satisfaction, too sensibly felt by the heart, to be adequately conveyed by words. To those sentiments of gratitude and esteem, which pervade me with regard to you, as a part of that gallant, persevering, and suffering band of Americans, to whom, under heaven, we are so immediately indebted for the inestimable blessings of peace, liberty, and independence— others of a private nature are superadded, aris ing from the contemplation of the attentions I have received, from the pleasures which have resulted from the social virtues which you cher ish, and which have justly acquired you the es teem, and rendered you dear to all the vicinity. Those wishes which you so warmly express for my prosperity, honor and happiness, I im plore the divine being to realize on each of you : may heaven impress the hearts of your fellow citizens with a proper and a generous sense of your sufferings and your services.—May they never suffer a thorn to spring in your future path of life ; and permit me to assure you, that I shall most readily and most cheerfully, seek for, and improve, every occasion to serve you, and to evince the friendship, the esteem, and regard, with which my heart is penetrated. I am, gentlemen, affectionately, And very sincerely, your obliged and obedient Servant, BIT. SCHUYLER. To Captain Allen, and the gentlemen of the Rhode Island regiment. Thu war had closed, the army was breaking up, the memory ol the past wascrowding on the souls of the brave, who had fought their coun try’s battles, and the visions of die future were then so gloomy, that there was a solemnity and honesty in every thing that was said.—The Rhode Island brigade was a highly respectable corps of men, and were in the command of as gallant an officer as could be found in the ser vice. This respect for the character of General Schuyler had pervaded the whole army from Washington to the humblest soldier. Never was there a man w ho had so entirely laid dow n all pro judice; and all were anxious to make amends for the early jealousies of a few. Brooks com mended him as a soldier, and Wigglcsworth con sidered him as a scholarand all knew him to be a patriot. This was enough for New-England. The beauties of social intercourse, in the Ame rican army, and the effort of mind upon mind du ring the awful struggle lor freedom, will never be known ; theday has gone for recording them. The great points of the drama of the revolution arc and will be preserved; but the interesting under plots and by.play, if we may use such an expression, have passed away with the actors and the audience. After the war had closed, General Schuyler was an active patriot, and labored in the Halls of Congress, and every where for the good of the country, without any narrow or selfish views. I le was a member of Congress under the old con federation, and was one ol'lhose who early saw that that form of government was not sufficient ly energetic for the exigencies of a great people. And he was a firm supporter of the Constitution of the United States, and acted in concert with all the great spirits of the time, in obtaining something as a rule and guide for the nation, that would develope the character of the people, and the resources of the country. Ile was twice elected a Senator of the United Slates, and serv ed his country faithfully in that office. Into that august body lie carried the principles of a patriot, the wisdom ofa statesman, and the manners of a gentleman. lie acted as a legislator in his own commonwealth, as well us in the United States government, and was a prominent man in making many good and wholesome laws. He died Nov. 18, 1804, near Albany, and in the 73d year of his age—much lamented by all who knew him. The time must come, when wo shall not complain of the scanty annuls of one so deserving of his country’s gratitude—for we understand that the papers of Gen. Schuyler are now in the hands of one who is capable of doing justice to the subject, as he has done to the Con slitution and laws ofbis country. Modern Dictionary.— Distant Relations.

There are,however, particularly at this time, oilier duties that may not he avoided so easily. In entering the political arena, we may not conceal our sentiments ; for we conceive it our duty, to our friends and opponents, friendly to avow them. The State Rights’ Doctrines as contended for hy the best expounders of the Constitution are those we avow; we hold that each stale has reserved to her self, all and every right, not surrendered up and enum i crated in the Constitution of the United States ; that they may, nay should, and have reserved for the very . purpose, those rights, that whenever occasion requires, they may be exercised ; but the slates should be care- I fnl, in the exercise of what are called and supposed to • he reserved rights, those surrendered up are not viola ’ tod : lor llt.'i/ are no more the rights of the slates than if I they hud never been exercised hy them.

While here, we remark that we are uncompromising I inion men, and feel and consider ourselves identified with all those that now rally under the standard of the twenty.four stales, whatever minor distinctions may, heretofore, have separated us. As respects the parties in (ieorgia, too, we have a word to say.—We have acted with perfect satisfaction to ourselves, with the Republican party.
