General Keafle, with a part Os his brigade was in this latter S' ork, and some ol them narrowly escaped the'effects of the numerous balls thrown from this gi u. We are told the captain n the • -t liuvmg bec.rdeprived of hu- ves sci, hail been appointed to the chaigc and man agement of tins gun., with some of his crew- to work it ; and indeed it, seemed very like the bit ter and determined spirit of our former oppo nent, for any of the other guns seenhed alee children’s play to the unceasing and destructive fire of this heavy piece of ordnance. 1 could distinctly see that they were sailors thfit wor . ked it—-one of vvlicim, a large mulatto, wit 1 , a j red shirt, always sponging her out after firing. j In what I am going to relate, 1 know I .‘•hall I incur the risk of being deemed a traveller by i some of my readers, but thl.'L shall not dote me j from telling what I plainly and repeatedly -saw with mv own eyes, assisted by a glass .V me distance of three quarters of a mile, 1 could Hs tiuctly preceive the halt from this gun every time it was tired, n appearing like a srCaii •‘•tack : ■ i -sn e, and wiiidi gradually p '' larger in appearance | as it apprmciu-ii ns. In ■my instances p "a* providentially the cause of saving some of lb men who w > • in i it with us, be seeing which way the hull was coming, 1 told them when to lie down ; and on one occasion was the shave so close, that it actuary carried away one of the men’s packs, as he lay on the | ground. Another shot struck about iltrec ieet i above our heads, and carried away part oil a j piece of timber which supported a shed just be- ; hind us.” * “The poor fellows on the left, who had gi'ti ed the only work which fell into bur hand ;m this bank of the river, were still detained tlure, unable cither to advance or retreat, and not one durst show ids head above the parapet, or he was instantly shot dead. Such was their confined and critical situation | at tins period, that an officer of the 7th, vhosc I name 1 forget, being himself rather tali, and | wearing at this time the high narro’v-topped rap,: 'could not squeeze in suflTcieritlv close to ctver ; himself completely by the parapet, the toi of \hc high cap lie wore sticking above the tm ol ; Ttio work. 1 his part c£ ttio cap, v\ Inch was s- j ibie to the Americans within the line, hal no | less than four or five rifle-shots 'put th roust n : while ho lay there, but without touching his j head. AH this information respecting tfese ‘ three companies I h'au from Lieutenant itrfi e ; of the 43d, one of tiic officers who was in the | work. - They were obliged at last to adept a wry - singular but politic expedient, which was, o j make one of the American pris . iers embrai a , •‘man of the 43d, and tints stand up togethe* to j 'see what was going forward, for hitherto they were totally ignorant, trom the causes abuve j •assigned. The enemy durst not fire in s. m a case, for fear of killing their own man.-l'iic j ■news they now learned was most disheartemng. i indeed, which wgs that the whole ol ti.e Lit sh had retired, and that the Americans w *re coming out of iheir line*, anu were movii*. m the direction of that won;. from the Boston Daily Ada rhsc , Ornithology. —We have already sn|eu ~e . iu Opinion, that the labors ol the scientific ore. ,a bgis* arc of far more practical utility, t:.au casual observer might suppose; and mat, even the business o: legislation, a regard to ins m- Searches might prevent many errors, which n -y much affect the public welfare. There is no ;e --denying,thal there has been no lack of legisla • n dn the subject of irrational living things : I-' ' have received an undue share of attenl ion in consequence of their negative merit of being jjood to eat,%vhile the beasts have been made ne ebject of attentions of a different sort; the seve ral towns being duly.authorized to raise money to be expended as a bounty for destroying some •f the least popular of die race. Without inqnir- ITOISTINCT P * inu into the propriety of this policy here, we must affirm that the legislation on the subject of birds has been marked by some essential er rors, which have led to rea' evil. We have al ready alluded to the law of I s 17, by which ■ woodcocks, sniper, lurks and robins were pro tected at certain seasons of the year, whi-e war ■ to the knife was declared against crows, black r j bit*'.)?, owls, bluejays and hawks: these last were ' i treated as.a sort of pinte",subjec- to suspension 1 at the yard arm with the least possible ceremo- | ny. I f so happens, that the character of these very birds has been cingular!y . mistaken : for . while the ordnance of legislation ,as been thus systematically levelled at them, they, on a-prin. ciple which f an would do e.xtvernely wdl 1 to unite.' c, have ' cen returning goCd for evil ; ’hey i have been diligently engaged in extirpating all I sorts of vermin, whi’< never wt e the veriest 1 vermin half so ill-tree.ted by the I nman race. The crow, for example, who is generally re garded as a most suspicious character, has had great injustice done him ; in the spring, when the’ground is moist, he lives in a state of the most triumphant luxury on grubs : he eats 'the i youngcorn, it is true, but it is a necessary of j life to which he never resorts, except when his | . : "supply cf animal food is shortened.— After the ! corn is tolerably grown, he has nothing more to I do with it ; and in al f stage, lie destroys, at least five hundred pernicious grubs and insects, for every blade of corn which he pillages from man. In the Southern States, he is regularly j I permitted to accompany the ploughman, and j collect the grubs from the m wlv opened furrow ; \ ins fife is thus secured by the -safest c fall tenures, i that of the Miter-At of man in permitting him to j , five. The ,j is scarcely.a farm in England with- { cU its r- do -y ; the qumid atmosphere multi- f pHes every species of insect, and these birds re- i ward man for Ins forbearance bv ridding him ofi ~J ° i • f legion's of I s foes. By a policy like that wiiidi ■ dictated the revocation of the edict of Nant;’ : they have occtisiond'dy been exposed to the mi» chievot'S of unruly boys, who, as! far as utility ;V. concerned, are nor. to. be com ,■ pared wi h crows ; butthe errorof this step, soon j became obvious, and they are now received with j a universal welcome. The hawk enjoys a doubt ful reputation in tiic hen-roost: he sometimes ! destroys the chickens, but with the consistency \ 1 of man, does not like to bee his infirmities copied by another; and bv way of compensation de- j molishes ,‘he fox, Which eats twenty chickens where he eats one; so that it is hardly'the part of wishom to set a price upon, his head, whih. the fox, a hardened knave, is not honored with a penal statute. Huvv tlie owl came to he includ- i ed in this black list, it is v ein to.conjecture ; iie : is a grave, reflecting bird, 'wfiojias v ■>'. hug to C>, with man, except to benef him by eating weas- j els, foxes, racoons, rats find mice, a sin for j which most housekeepers will readily forgive j him. In some parts of Europe, he is kept in Hum- j lies like the cat, whom ho equals in patience,! and surpasses in alertness ; hour after hour he i may be seen watching for his prey, with the air ! all the while of being completely absorbed in j come mathematical problem. Another of these ' I birds, tiic blackbird, is the avowed enemy ofj ' grubs, like the crow : in the middle states, the | i farmer knows use value of lbs company to pluck j j them from th< furrow ; while other less pains- j j taking birds collect the vermin from the surface, 1 j his invest; .- o -u are more profound, and he digs ' to tlie depth of several inches in order to disco- j Ver them. Wnen tlie insects aj’e no longer found, fie eats the corn, as well lie may, but even then he -sks hut a moderate compensation for his forme: services : five hundred blackbirds do less j ini i - ■:•• the '-urn, than a single squinei. 'i’he . is. upon ■ ~i. loguc o» perse -aled !/r . -s . ilcl s . set leset es itly foi brandies, pouncing every tina g-ou tiic grub, , his enemy and ours. Thekfe are facts which are j derived from the researches of the oni‘i v .hoiogisls; | i and they certainly shew, that a knowledge of i j the character and habits of birds may be of con- ! j sequence iu legislation, if it should d« no more. I Ilian to give protection to the innocent. 'A o have already seer that the act to which we have referred protects some birds at certain seasons of the year ; among others, trie robin, who lives on insects and worms, and has no taste for vegetable diet, and the lark who is ex tremely useful in bis way ; the only wonder is, that it should have been thought expedient to al low them to be shot in any season. —The quail, ■ another ofthe privileged c’.iss, has no title to be j named in company with the others ; in the plant- J ing lime, he makes more havoc than a regiment ■, of crows, without atoning for ins misdeeds, by i | demolishing a single grab. Nor :j the part- • ndge ui? ■ : -1 1 more •.ipulous respecter of tlie i j rigiitsof proper y : tk<» iglt; as he lives in com- I j parative retirement, he succeeds in preserving a i better name for honesty. There are some otiier cf our most familiar 1 | birds, ol which a word may lie re be said. Eve- | : ry body has observed the hit! goldfinch on the I i thistle bfi 1 lie wayside, and wondered nerbaps, j ; that ms taste should lead him to so 'thorny u I ; luxury ; but he is ail the while engaged in de- I ig the seeds, which, but tor him, would I I overrun the grounds ul every farmer. Even j the bob Tank, a most ccncei ed coxcomb, who ! steais with all imagihulde grac . though we arc \ | boufid to say that he is much moie at: . ntive to j ■ our southern neighbors in this particular, limn j to us, destroys m, iiuns of tne insects, which j annoy the farmer most. All the Ijifile birds, in 1 i fact, which are to be seen about the blossoms of 1 the. trees, are doing us the sar. e service, in j their own way. Pev'uips Imre is no bird which | is considered more •‘. ciuediy wantiagin prin i ciple, than the w »o.:pecker ; and certainly, so j far as man is concerned, there is none more j conscientious. t?o long as a dead tree cun be found for bis nsst, lie will not trouble himself to bore into u living one: whatever wounds he ■ makes upon tne living, are confideri.il by 1 reign ! gardeners ;>s an advantage to the. Tree. The : sound tree is not his object : he is in pursuit of insects and the a larvae la South Carolina and > Georgia, forests to a vast extent, have been '* destroyed by an insect, which would seem as i capable of lifting a tree, as of destroying it: the 1 ■ | people were alarmed by the visitation, and 1 sagaciously laid the mischief to the door of the ; woodpecker, until they found that *hey had! * confounded the bailiff with the thief: since -hey ; | ascertained this, the people of Georgia have a. ‘ I dented towards 'hit bird a lire of policy very >RINT I different frtfin that vvh ch they pursue towards I the Cherokee?. The injury arising from the loss of a single isJ-rtrdlv to be estimated. The experi ence which i? tangly us by ol:r own misfortune ic very dearly bought ; and we think that ;f we c a derive it from ethers—if, for example, we can Jefirn from the ornithologist, the means of preventing such injury, as in many instances we may, ffte dictates of economy combine with those of taste, and warn us net to neglect the result of his researches. . ■ wg-Bj.gagaaapaegMseggtt .
