THE ZOUAVES OF THE REVOLUTION,
T)i thf Kditurs of tlie Eceumy l^uat:
At this tiiiic it nuiy be interesting t\> jotir
numerous readers to know that there wen-
Zouaves in the War ol‘ Independence, 'i'he vx-
tr;iet of a letter, written by a youn; .soldier in tlie
Connecticut army to his parents, which follows,
.states the fact:
‘‘Dear l*arents: Our company urrivnl lure
last night very late, hungry ami tired, ’i’ruinijig
is a good deal harder than old Squire Fell tells
of. If he’d marched lourteeu mtlcs a day i»»r
three days and carried his piog, befeides lather’s
old French war fusee, I calculate he’d not been
so encouraging to us boys. 1 don t find tiiult,
mind: I only wish to let you know that we^lire
not on a May party. ,.
“At Milford tavern wo were joined ^ two
companic.s of soldiers from New Ilavan and-a
company of ‘queer fellows,’ as Jake c^ls tli^m,
from the Southern colonies. Tiiey are r:lIoill«o,
and are commanded by Colonel Cresap. Tlit'y
don’-t use any beds, as we do, but sleep right-'on
the ground, all in a row, like Indians do. tful
their antics in militar}' exercise are of the cu-
riousest kind. They load and lire their rifles
lyin; flat on their bellies. After that they tangh*
themselves all up in a knot, and look just like a
porcupine, with their guns sticking out all over
them. But, the wondermost part of their actions
is their hittiug a mark. Any one jof [them can
hit a small potato at forty rods di.stanee. You
never saw anything like it. When we get to
camp I will write more about these riflemen, who
woald amuse the girls if they could see them cut
their antics.”
The rest of the letter is of a private nature, ajid
uninteresting to the public.
The company described in this letter Ts also
alluded to in Moore’s Diary of the Revolution, a*
follows:
“August 7, 1775.—On Friday evening last
arrived at Lancaster, Pennsylvania, on their way
to the American camp, Captain Cresap’g company ot
riflemen consisting of one hundred and thirty ac
tive, brave young fellows, many of whom have been
^ the late expedition under Lord Dunmore against
the Indians. They bear in their bodies visibh-
marks of their prowess, and show scars and Wdunds
which would do honor to Homer's Iliad. 'I'hey
show you, to use the poet’s words—
“ ‘Where the gor'd battle t)led at every vein!’
“One of the warriors in ]»articular shows the
cicatrices of four bullet holes through his body,
'rhese men have been bretl in the woods to hard
ships and dangers irom their infancy. Th« v ap
pear as if they were entirely nnaequainted withanl
had never felt the ptassion of fear. Witli their
rifles in their hands, they assume a kind of om
nipotence over their enemies. One cannot much
wonder at this when we mention a tact which can
be fully aUested by several of the reput:4'le per
sons who were eye-witnesses of it. Two brothers
in the company took a piece of board five inches
broad and seven inches long, with a bit of white
paper about the size ot a dollar nailed in the ceri-
tre, and while one of them supported this board
perpendicularly between his knees, the other, at
a distance of upwards of sixty yards, and without
anyTiind ot rest, shot eight bullets through it succes
sively and spared a brother's thigh. Another ot
the company held a barrel .stave perpcfndicularly in
his hands, with one edge close to his side, while
one of his comrades, at the same distance,, and in
the manner before mentioned, shot several bullets
tl.rough it without any apprehension of danger
on either side. The spectators, appearing to be
amazed at these feats, were told that there were
upwards of fifty persons in the same company who
could do the same thing; that there was not one
who could not plug nineteen bullets outot twenty,
as they termed it, within an inch ot the head of
a tenpeany nail. In short, to evince the confi
dence they possessed in their dexterity with these
kinds of arms, some of them proposed to stand
with apples on their heads, while others, at the
same distance, undertook to shoot them oft; but
the people who saw the other experiments declined
to be witnes-ses of this.
“At night a great fire was kindled around a
pole planted in the Court-house square, where the
company, with the captain at their head, all
naked to the waist, and painted like savages, ex
cept the captain, who was in an Indian shirt, in
dulged a va.st concourse of people with a perfect
exhibition of awar-dance, and all the mwiuKuvres
ot Indians, holding council, going to war, circum
venting their enemies by defiles, ambuscades, at
tacking, scalping, and so-forth. It is said by those
who are judgt'S that no representation could pos
sibly come nearer the original.. The capt^iin's ex
pertness and agility, in particular, in tlieso ex
periments, astonished every beholder. This morn
ing they will set out on their march for Cambridge.”
hujUiU ^vLilUi/ jFivc liundrtd i'tars A^o.—
in loiil, ilugh 8pt;iiccr, head ofoncof tiie groat
laiuilies, for some politcal tuisbeiiavior was ex
pelled troul the realm, and his property conli.sca-
led. On taking the inventory oi the same, it
was found that he po.ssessed, in different parl.s ol
liiUgland, fifty-nine tuanors, twenty-eight thousand
sheep, one thousand oxen and steers, one thou-
sami two iiundred cows witii their oalves, iorty
mares with their coitj^, one hundrud and aix^y

bullocks, eighty carcases ui beef, six hundred
muttons iu larder, ten tuns of cider, ten tiu*u-
sand pounds ready money, tbirty-sit sacks of
wool, and a library of books.
iu 14-- the great estates were summoned to
London. Ihere came the Karl ot Salisbury,^with
five hunured of his men ou horsebackj llichard
Duke of \ork four fiundred men; Dukes Exeter
and Somerset, eight hundred men; the harl of
.^Northumberland aud Lord l’.igremont, with lifie^^n
liundred men; llieliard Neville, Earl of Warw.ck,
six hundreU men—all iu red jackets, and lodged in
Warwick lane, iu which house there Were of'ten-
times six oxen eaten at breakiast, and every ta\ ern
was full of the great Earl’s meat; aud he that had
any acquaintance there could go and “carry away
as mucn roast beef as he could pr;ck and hold on
his daggar.” So saith Stow, m his annals of
iiondon.
Two Legislators were recently conversing upion
the subject ot voting, when one ot tliein iiKjuired,
‘•Well, now, but what is a man to do wlicti he
don’t know anything about a matter.''’* ell,’
replied the oilier, “I have got two rules :ibout
that I When anythin..; comes up, I keei>s my eyes
open and votes os mebooy else does wnotii i Re
lieve to be honest, or else ivote against it. 1 t’c-•
