TUB AMEniCAN RSTOIUTIOS, I have often heard it said lhat thjnen of the Revolution; were a peculiar class. One thing is evident, they were eminently fitted for the work which. Providence had assigned them. They are now nearly exijnet, and many of the investing facts that occured in their eventful history have passed away. Could these facts, touching their nce bear ing and personal biavery be gathered up, and Thrown into a separate volume, sadceed ing generations; would read it with profitable delight. Every attempt to. rescue from obli vion interesting passages of those early times should be encouraged 'iJk The writer of this sketch was well acquain ted with Sergeant Everheart. I have ridden with him; and marked the superiority of his horsemanship. have conversed with him, and noticed the strong vein of common sense which fun through his remarks. He was a German 'Vat her abovje the ordinary size, and seemed formed for strength and activity. When lsknew him, he; was a truly-pious lo cal minister of the Methodist Episcopal church ; and such he lived and died. The substance bf what I am about to re late was communicated to a brother minister by FatfieT Everhart himself; and from him received it. iHhink from the impression made on my mind, that the facts may be safe ly relied upon as substantially correct. The Sergeant belonged to Col. Washing ton's troop of horse J and a braver man never backed a steed or drew a sword in the cause of liberty. In an enterprise that required despatch he wa's usually selected ; and rid ing a horse of noble powers, his common course was to dart into the thickest oi the fight, fearless alike of -limb and of life. He had received seventeen sabre wounds ; and these were the shining marks of his valorous deeds . Tlie incident which I am about to relate took place in a rencounter between Tarlton and Washington. On the evening of the day before the battle, Col. Washington and others oi his statr were seen examining with critical exactness'the circumjacent grounds. They were in council, and preparing for the worst ; for the British army was not far dis tant ; and a contest was anticipated After the officers had! dispersed, Col. W. rode up to his brave troops, and calling Ser geant Everheart by name, communicated to him the following facts and orders. 'Ser geant, we have learned! from pretty good au thority that the enemy intends making an attack upon us before day in the morniner. Now I wish you toselct seventeen men and take your station at the blacksmith shop on- ine main road,, and do your best to throw their van guard into confusion. Keep them back if vou can till the day dawns, and We shall be ready to meet them. The Sergeant bowed assent, and- wheeling off from his superior officer, soon began to adjust him-! i self to the task asisi?ned him. The men ! . C7 were presently selected. ;One smaljtjdifficulty, however, occurred in the selection.- Th number designed was seventeen, but eighteen nad volunteered. A trooper leaning down (from his horse, and snatching up a chip from ihe ground, cued out to his contending com rades, ' wet or dry.' The case being thus decided. offThev started with ' Everheart -at their head. tr ttipir nnsitinn n! (Iip Khml.-. smith's shop.. - The night was ratheridark : and thfitJittle band waited in silence and breathless anxie- y for the approach; of the enemy. At length before the day began to dawn, the noiseof klattering scabbards, and prancim? hoofs of the advancing cavaliv was hpanl ill they ilia- lance. On" they came, not sus I it would be necessary forihem. either to face or feel a broad s word until they had reached Uie plain. All ot a sudden the Sergeant ?ave the of word command in his half German and English style, 4 Sharge, Sharge !' and in an Jnstant the van guard was thrown into con cision, in the scuttle, a British trooper was kut off from his associates and supposing Kiimself surrounded by the Americans, cried post lustily for Quarter. Quarter.9 The ; . " sergeant's reply wasf Yes, quarter him, re- pember Monch's Kornef.' The fellow Jrtw- ver made his escape. It was thought1est nottd push the matter jo iar lest the smallness of their . number iiould be discovered. But as daylighlfiad not Fpearea, Everheart conclutled. that bv retir- "g to his position and awaiting their-rettirft couta give themother brush. He did and the J . ; ... ord in hand. The directions were, 'Now, prave WOVS. vn T iflnsh rlf Aa nmr-A HrgfCm den fiVPrv vnn nf xrcsw mnci lui!n r e pand howl jusfclike the Inshunsrand den will frighten de lihu n rlat , utl off raid de riders.'' : The sagacious calculation of the Sergeant was verified to the Very. letter.- The discor dant notes of so many voiced frightened the chargers worse than the roar of-aunon. The men werwilling toobey their ofiicers ; but the horses would not obey the men. .They snorted and bounded and ran; whilst the Sergeant and nis company pounced upon them withhnost the impetuosity o.a storm. Forgetting the smallnessf Jf theirfjuimber, they thought themselves for theifliomenU enough for a host oT red coats, apo.they were hurried On until they eqt into "difficul ties. A trooper of the Sergeant's bjnd was so severely wounded under the right arm that when he raised it, the blood spouted out like water from fountain ! 'Fall pack, fall pack,' cried Everheart to iiis brave associate. This he declared moist soleymly he would never do while he had a drop in Kls veins. Day by this time had .dawned fully ; and the Sergeant haviur led -the way for his brethrenrtn !fmsf soon found himself hem med in on every side bf overwhelming num bers. ' .JJtterly unable to extract himself, he reluctantly sung out fori -' quarters.' Yes quartet him.' 'Finding that I vas to haf no quarter, I reined up old Baldface, gafe him de spur and while the proat sords came down upon my heat like trum-sticks, I cut a lane trough de whole Pritish line, and just ash 1 vas about to be free again, mine bait horse was stiokfrom under me and down I came.' At this juncture a British subaltern stepped up and saluted him with 4 how are you, Sergeant Everheart ?' The reply was; (quoting his own words,) You see how I am ajl blood and wounts: Where is your bald Jiorse ?' You shot him just now, or you 'would'nt see me here.' Well, hat bald horse gave me the greatest chase I ever had in my life.' The way of it was this. Tle Tjffieer some time before had climbed a pine tree that he might take an observation. TJie Sergeant happened to be on top of an other some distance off, for the same purpose! and having espied the red coat, he hastened down as quick as he could, and took after him. The other, however, haxl got the start. It was a hard chase ; the Sergeant could ea sily have shot him, but this he would not do, his only object was to maim him, that lie might bring him a prisoner of war. Now, the Sergeant was at his heels, and reaching over to strike his sword arm. Then again the Englishman would give his horse the spur and slip away from him. The chase continued until our hero run within gun-shot of the.British army. This was the man to whpnr'lhe Sergeant was committed in custo dy. In the mean while, Col. Tarlton step ped up to them. This said the officer is Col. Tarlton. The Sergeant strutted like a game fowl, and replied, ' This is Everheart '.be ing determined to introduce himself, as the j officer had failed to do so. Tailton seemed diverted at his spunk, and looking the Ser geant in the face, asked ' Do you.thiuk that Washington will fight me ?' This was al most too much to be borne ; he put his arms a-kimbo, and giving the Colonel a glance of his eye, now fired with indignation, he re plied with peculiar emphasis, Fight you, sir! fight you sir!' making a significant pause ahd tossing up his head. Would you fight me? ' was the next question. Quick as thought he answered mine Got, give me my sord, and I fight you now.' wSoon after this interview the battle com menced. The American horse with an en thusiasm that the love of liberty alone can inspire, presently turned the fate of ihe day. Clouds of dust were seen rising at an distance. TJje -Sergeant and his attendant were sitting on a large log, which had fallen across the road, when the question was asked. ' What doess all that mean V 'Mean,' said Everhart ' Why it means that Washington is gifhn it to him, and T am glad of it." Down they came like the rush of a tornado, and as they neared the spot where the two were sitting, the orhcer remarked, ' we must get up or thev will be over us.' ' You may, if you choose, but I shant.' Finally the Sergeant was left alone, his keeper having fled for safely. It was manifest that they would be over the log, but Everheart had formed his plan which was to lay himself lengthwise under its projecting side, so that they might pass over him, without observing, or doing him injury. It so happened that some one dropped a-pistol near the spotofthe Ser (ream's retreat, he extended his hand and - ' seized it ; but did not know whether it wa loaded or not. Just at that moment a Brit ish horseman rode up to the log. The Ser geant started up from his.horizontai position and pointing the pistoVat his breast, cried out tilliver or 'you area tead man.' No sooner said than done ; the horseman dis mounted, yielding his place, to the Sergeant, who rode in triumph, and joined, his fellows, and then fought the battle out. JThis soldier of the revolution, finally be come a soldier of the crossfffmd having set tled in Middletown Valley, Md. he there spent the balance of his days. The last time I saw him, was at a Camp Meeting, not far from his residence. He was thenvofd. and feeble, but happy in God his Redeemer. Once, and only once during our exercises, did lie attempt to officiate. When he rose in the stand every eye was upon hijii, and de livering his message with a feeble and trem ulous vpice he took his seat, leaving nearly the wf&le audience in tears. It is pleasant for Je to-tjiink bf former associations. It is pleasanter still to contemplate the period when they shall all be renewed, to be marred by circumstances, disturbed b distance, or broken- by death.

HARRISON. Among the thousand eulogies of (Jen. Hareisos, we have seen none more beautiful than that i.ronounc ed by Mr. E. D. MAjiiijR4f Cincinnati. We anslor nothing but the enemy in view, towards nex the closing naraoranhs; " Yesterday the Young Harrisonl entered yonder fort amidst th'enhick shades oC 'un cultivated nature To-day lie is gone W his grave, the chief of a great nation ; and'that spot is alive Ith a panorame of arts, men. and busy life, sudhAas fancy .herself would not hav dreamed ? He entered it in the forest ; he. left it the city. He, entered it a subaltern, he left it a President. The country and the man run parallel together. He grew with its growth and he strengthened with its strength. " We turnjrom the vision of the Capitol, to the face of the dead. In that mortal bodv and in that qHjiet sleep, is' the end and the summary of all human power. Tjhe sounds of the trumpet have died away upon the anr ; the orb of glory has ceased to shine ; and the red flag of vietory'no more unfolds his crimson sheet! Why gaze the people on yon narrow house? Why is it clothed in dark array the akar and the chancel ? Why does the voire, so lately joyful, give, forth only tones of sadness ? He is gone 1 and from earth forever. Warrior ! thy battle is ended, Statesman thy duty is done. Fare well to thee, our pioneer chieflNo more wilt thou look upon the forest ! But green as its foliage, be thy memory to us. ' There is part of the life of the great and noble, which survives the body, even here on earth. There is a monument more durable than brass. This remainder in their lives is the memory of their deeds. Fame is the only plant of earth whose leaf never with ers. It belongs not so much to the dead as to us ; not so much to the present as to the future. It grows with advancing ages. i " Already has Fame seized her trumpet ! Already has the recording angel of history taken his pen. Already do the men of future ages come up to read the pictured page. Al ready do we hear theSvoices of advancing millions resound his praise, and re-echo his name from the shores of distant time ! " Tradition among the Indians of the North-west tells us, that when a great chief had -fallen, it was the tluty of each one of his tribe, as they passed his tomb, to place upon it a handful of earth ; and that thus they honored his memory from generation to generation, till, by their friendly tributes, that tomb becomes the mighty mound upon these western plains. So will posterity add its successive honors to the memory of our departed chief. So will that memory grow from age to age with increasing magnitude, till, like that mound rising from the bosom of tbe priarie, it stands out green and beauti ful from the horizon of time !" A SAILOR'S MILITARY TACTICS. The following amusing matter is from the Boston Mercantile Journal." The 'Editor Captain Sleeper, who is an " Old Salt," says that somewhere in the East Lndies, during an English expidition agaiiistthe ene my, a party of Seamen had been trained for a day or two in military tactics, for the pur pose of co-operating with the army on shore, and no small number of admonitory pre cepts were bestowed upon them by an officer as a guide for their conduct when no longer under the discipline of the ship. They were all instructed in the 'manual exercise,' and the Lieutenant who was to command the party, after receiving copious private instruc tions from the officer of the Marines, was wont to teach his men the manual exercise, after the followingifashion: My lads, the first you have to do, is to answer to your names ; when you hear the word ' Attention !' you bring both the star board and larboard heels to bear together, keeping your jibstaj-s tawt, bowse up and square your shoulders by the lifts and braces, clapping both your fists against your bends, one and all at the samevmoment, till th.e words ' Stand at ease !' when the Itollow of your starboard foot must be smartly backed astern of the heel of the larboard one ; you must also clap an overhand knot upon your fist, athwart your breadbag, after coining to attention. At the word Siioulder Arms !' seize your gun by the middle, and' bowse her up from the lower tier of the starboard side, to the larboard bow, keeping, a good look out that she don t make a lee lurch and capsize ; otherwise you will be apt to knock out your shipmate's toplights.' At the words 'Secure Arms?' the starboard arm which is now fast to the starboard bends, must go a thwart your bread bag. in order to receive your gun by the breach, clapping your lai board fists to her midships be sure to have her muzzle ahead, so that her breach will come right under your larboard wing so as to secure the fireworks from squalls, no tar pauling being allowed. After shouldering, at the word 'present arms, you slew your gun half round and seize her with the star board fists, and then fetch her up betwixt your toplights, so that when your flying jib boom will be two inches from her miIsnips, be sure to back the hollow of the starboard foot astern of the heel of the larboard one, t . . . . during tins motion. Alter bringing the gun from the larboard bow, the next is ' advance arms ' both of the two first motions of which are the same as present;' but at im third. you shove her along.sTde of the slarboan bends, seizing the guard with the starboard fist, so as to secure them alongside. Baron Steuljen would have been niuch astonished, as well as puzzled at listening to the above directions. However," the patty J . 4 u rt 1 a I 1 11 1 the cojanufndihg officer shouted, Incline to the left!' This was Greek to our tars,who nnshffil manfnllv fnrwahrd. annearinor to care whom thev were rushim? with their usual duufltlessness, when tiie Lieutenant who com manded them, seeing their error which might lead to serious consequences, set all fight by bawlingbut, 'Starboard my Bojs ! Hard a Starboard!' a command to which they hearti ly responded, ' Aye, aye. Sir '.' and forth with,moved in the required direction. At a-.late Court, a man and ffts wife brought cross actions, each charging the other with having committed assault and battery. On investigation it appeard that the husband had poshed theloor against his wife, and! the wife in turn pushed thd door against, and al most jamed the breath out of her ' husband.
