The vigor of youth, which had enabled me (with others) to druggie amid the con flid for our independence, had fome what been impaired by inter vening years, yet l felt upon the fecgtnd call of my country, that its ardor had not been subdued. Al- j though allured that the generation which since that period had sprung up, were both determined and adequate to maintain the rights tor which their fathers had bled, still while a capacity for service remain ed with me, I felt that my country was entitled to demand the per- • formance. /The situation of my command h'as net been such as to prelent a field wherein laurels might be ■ reaped, or splendid service perform- j ed ; yet it has not been unincum- I bered with duties peculiar and la borious.
