The Rev. Dr. Jackson is said bv the author of the Memoir to have been the first man who opened negotiations with the Frenrh government, about the year 1793, for aid in the liberation of his oontry from oppressions snd exclusions rhich had then become intolerable. He did so with the zealous co onera non of all her patriot ami many of her most eminent sons. He was betrayed by the infamous Cockayne,' the British spy and assumed friend; and was ar rested, and finally convicted, of liigh ireasun. jr. cunroei uescrioeo ntm as man possessed of distinguished tal tnts and acquirements, and a ' high iiense of honour; and he illustrated his haracter by the following fact: While Dr. Jackson was preparing for his trial. and while his fate was more than prob ' able a friend was admitted to his room in prison, and remained there on boM ness till a late hour at night. I)r Jackson, conducted him to the outside door of the Jail expecting there to find the jailer, ready to torn the key. The key was in the door and the jailer in a profound sleep, probably tntoxtca ted. , ins escape was now in his own hands. He first looked at his friend, then at Jhe jailer, with an intense gaze tte became agitated and pale as he look ed. AfteiVa, pause of a moment, he aid Noj; 1 'Will not abuse the poor leliow'a coniidence in me!" he turned the key. opened the door, resisted the advice of his friend, closed the door sfter him, awoke the jailer, aod retired to his ceil. " I tatinof follow my inclination in closing 'this little notice, (says gen Haines) without committing to writing some anecdotes which Mr. Kmmet has related to me. 1 will mention two or three which reflect great 'credit on the fidelity of the Irish, people J The first has: a. relation to the .celebrated Mr Rowan, already spoken of. . It will be recollected that he was convicted in thut celebrsted trail where he was de fended by Mr. Curran.. He ,v4S past into prison, ana his sentence was rum and severe. While incarcerated w in the cells of one of the dungeons of Dublin, Mr. Emmet aod .two or three others contrived a plan.for hit escape It was successfully executed; small, vessel was to take him to France. It was an Irish echooner,' manned by Irish sailors, who knew nothing of the person whom they were to transport to the continent. II is name, character, and every thing were concealed. .
