The meeting of Generals Harrison and Van
Rensselaer, at Colunibus, Avas deeply affect
ing. "They had been captains under iVVayne ;
they fooght together at 'the memorable victory. of
the IVlaumee , aqd, tHroughout a long and event

claims to the gratitude (Jf their country. ' Gjen.
Van Rensselaer commanded a troop of drag
oons on the 20ih orAogust, 1794, and was bad
ly wounded. In the late war he led a gallant
body of troops to the assault upon the height of
Qneenstown ; he stormeil and carried (the ene

guished GeniBROCKjfell, and Van IIensse
laer received six severe wounds npon bis body.
It is scarcely necessary Ito remind our readers of
the disgraceful fact, thai all these services and
these wounds could not j protect the gallant sol
dier from the prescriptive system of Mr. Van
Boren. He was Postmaster at Albany,, and
was removed lasl yelV because he would not use

reason for dropping him now which was
