When Burgoync collected his forces at St. John's, at the foot ol Lake Champlain, Jonathan ivas made a Captain and David a Lieutenant in the Division under General Fraser, and at the time in question they were with the British army near Sandy Hill. Thus far all accounts nearly agree.

But the brother of Jenny was a Whig, and prepared to move to A a but Mrs, McNeil, who was a. cousin of General Fraser (killed at Stillwater) wae a staunch loyalist, and intended to remain at Fort Edward. When the British were near, Jenny was at Mrs. McNeil's, and lingered there even after repeated solicitations from her brother to return to his house, five miles further down the river, to be ready to ilee when necessity should compel. A faint hope that she might meet her lover doubtless was the secret of her tarrying.

At last her brother sent a peremptory order for her to join him, and she promised to go down in a bateau which was expected to leave with set-era! families on the following morning. Early the next morning a black servant one hundred men, women and children," says Gates, '-have perished by the hands of the ruflians, to whom, it is asserted, you have paid the price of blood." Unrgoyne Americans at once evacuated, and a did indeed go down the river in a batuau in which she had intended to embark, i not glowing wilh life and beauty, as ivas flatly denied this assertion, and declared expected by her fond brother. i i that the case of Jane McCrea was the on- deepest grief, he took charge of the mutila- ly act of Indian cruelty of which he svas I ted corpse, which was buried at the same! informed.

After the death of Campbell, (which occurred at sea,) Mrs. Campbell married McNeil. He, too, was lost at sea, and she removed wilh her family to an estate owned by him al Fort Edward.

Mr. McCrea, who was a widower, died, and Jane went to live with her brother near Fort Edward, where the intimacy of former years with Mrs. McNeil nnd her daughter was renewed, and Jane spent much of her time at Mrs. McNeil's house. Near her brother's lived a Jy named consisting of a widow and six sons, and between Jenny and David Jones, a gay young man, a feeling of friendship budded and ripened into reciprocal and garrulous, but after that terrible event he was melancholy and taciturn.

table at which many of the distinguished men of that Slate, ol all parties and descriptions of politics, are assembled and it is on that account that 1 regard this as a particular and striking memorial of respect and honor to myself. But, gentlemen, 1 am nothing. It is the cause that is every thing. You are pleased to honor me only because 1 support, so far as my ability will allow, that cause which is so dear to us all so dear to all good men in the country. It is the cause of the Union.

It is the cause of the preservation of the States. It is the enuse of the maintaining of all those political associations and principles which have made the Uni ted States what they are. It is not for me to argue the value of the i in this company. I came hero rather to be refreshed and edified by what I have heard of the proceedings of this Convention already. Its resolutions of the 10th of December are to me an expression so powerful, so authentic, nndsocoueluaive'upon the, judgment of Maryland, thaf 1 read them al first, and read them since, and read them now, with undiroinished delight.

Why, gentlemen, I should no more think ol arguing the question -of the importance, of the Union in this assembly, than I shouuld of going back to argue the propriety of the Declaration of Independence, nr to argue the expediency or the glory of having adopted the Constitution under which we live, or of arguing the utility, and honor, and renown, of Washington's Administration. Who doubts all these things here I am sure not one. 1 come, then, gentlemen, as a learner, not as a teacher 1 come to partake of the sentiments that fill all your hearts I come to be edified and instructed by those noble and patriotic expositions which have been made in this convention, formed, as I have said, of distill. gnished men ofall parties, coming togethi er with a unanimous sentiment of affirm-. ing their opinions in favor of the and whatsoever tends to strengthen that Union, by a unanimity which cannot fail to be regarded.

Allow me to say, genlle-. men, that your resolutions of the 10th of December will reach to the extreme the extreme South, and the extreme West; and body will say that amid all the vagaries which may prsvail elsewhere, this respectable, eminent and distinguished State, the central State of Maryland, is u-. nion to the back bone and thoroughly. There are considerations, there ace rec- collections, which naturally influence the, mind of man. have passed avoutul day among scenes which wece visited' in old limes by Washington.

I have been in the room where he performed thecrown-. ing act of his military life, the resignation ol hie commission. 1 remember that he said on that occasion, "Having performed the woMi assigned me, I now ask the i.ndul-. of my country to retire from public service." Gentlemen, Washington, with ail his sagacity, did not comprehend his own destiny. lie did not see the Ipng track of iniluenc.es i was to follow his revolutionary tiay, nor.

many years afterwards he retired from the civil administration of the- country, did he then cease to exercise an in- ilueiics on ihe public and. senli. ments of the country, and he never, will cease, lie said "having performed tha work assigned me, retire from, public service." He has never yut performeill ho work assigned i and he. never until the cud of time, because, geiuleweit that great and glorious work still remaining will ever uphold his precepts, his tations, and his' example the importance and the value of this Union of thuStatei. In that respect ho now, and will work ever, so long as hia, memory shall not be effaced from the records of a i 1 i 1, hear him any to-day, in language i he express-.

cd when he sent the present Constitution, of the United Stales to Congress k'Our great concern has boon FQ to manage our deliberations, and to come la Eurh sv result as shall strctisrthen that i i a us one people." I hear him say to-day in the words of his Farewell Allt dress "He cautious a those who, der any pretence whatever, adnionHi you a you can be htippy a llinsohi- tion of ihe Union." Every a i every a i i every i that proceeded Iron.) htm rings in thpso times constantly in iny ears. Nay, think hear him say now in the abode of the blessed, that if it were, permitted to him ho Would revisit the earth, and would he rer clothed with the hones and flesh which are mouldering at Vernon and ho would apper to his at tha head of or as he appeared 10 (ho in the course of his most glorious a i i a i of this Government, anil conjure anil them by every consideration that ought to have weight i on fast by that Constitution, whjch is the only security for the Liberty which cost me and my associates a seven yearn war of lire and blood." Gentlemen, forgive me. When I thin(c in these limes that there are many Mm aro apparently disposed to the maxims and the character of WAMHSOJ TON, I confess I find myself borno away, often beyond the of self-restraint-I fear beyond the of prdi' priety. Our country tn its liberty our country next consists- in its mirri. tulions of eoiistimtioKal und blessed be God, our rountry, America, next in the great example of trim have pone before us, ami have left thai oxjrmpV.
