Early last winter, colonel Aa ron Furr, late vice president of the United States, signified to me. at this place, that, under the authority of the general govern ment, he was organizing a secret expedition against the Spanish provinces on our south western borders ; which expedition he was to lead, and in which he was authorised to invite me to take the command of a division, f had never before been made personally acquainted with Col. burr , and, having for manv years been employed in foreign service, I knew but little about the estimation mis gentleman now held in the opinion of his countrymen and his government: the rank and confidence by which he had so lately been distinguish ed, hft rre no ? 1 1, ;• t t<- ~, H patriotism. ! knrvv hhv, In case (i a w.r wiui r e NH nati’ n, whic h from T.e - r ‘ 1 the.
