' boNCLIDEJ) FROM riBBTFAGE.,
overweening fastidiousness, one innocent
should tome to scathe and harm." ,
I took passage in the steamer Richmond
fot Albany, and waa 17 hours in porform
ina ihe trip, which was then considered a
short and quick passage; the fareSdol
There were then but 3 steamboats
in the United States ; in fact tho world, viz :
the Paragon, one of Fulton',s experiment
boats, which was lying in ordinary, resem
bling a fish coop painted yellow, with
perpendicular slab sides. The Richmond,
an improvement, butresembled nn ordinary
brig with rounded bows. The Chancellor
Livingston, the same in structure, and had
been but recently launched, not having
performed her first trip ; 9 milea an hour
waa a fair average of their speed, the sharp
cutwaters and long; hulls are more roccnt,
and better adapted to speed. There were
fcbout300 fellow passengers and it was
rto me altogether a novel and interesting
Previous to selecfing a berih, we had to
enter our names in a book spread open on
H table in the cabin. Just above mine I
perceived tho name of Anron Burr. I had
seen him many years before, as he passed
through Fayetteville, on a visit to his
daughter in South Carolina, and a dignifi
ed, respectable looking man ho then was,
dressed in black silk ; his eyes and hair jet
black ; keeping himself much aloof at Dc
ksyser's tavern, where he staid ; did not
mix with company nor eat at the public
table; he was the perfect contrast with
CoL Washington, who was passing through
Fayetteville at the same time ; with portly
form and long hair clubbed and dangling
down his back, his good natured counte
nance beamed upon all ; he greeted nnd
was greeted by every one, and when he
took his departure next morning, a crowd
gathered around him, he shaking them nil
cordially by tho hand, and bidding them
adieu. Not so wiih Burr, though many
eyes were fixed upon him when he depart
ed, no one approached him, and he wend
ed his way "solitary and alone" tohiscarri-
age. I desired a genueman io punu oui iu
me Col. Burr among the crowd. He point
ed to a little man on deck with his hands
full of newspapers, talking with much
assumed amenity to several gentlemen
who stood around him ; his onco dignified
and respectable appearance was gone ; his
hair was white as snow, and fell careless
ly about his face ; ho had lost his teeth
and his eyes their lustre and might have
been well mistaken by his grimaces for a
FrAnr.h hnrber. "Quantum mutatus nb
illo I" Since I saw him last, he had slain
Hamilton ; been an exile in foreign coun
tries ; a solitary wanderer on the earth ; de
spised by, and despising all men; brought
w; shame and ruin Blannerhasset's family ;
been arraigned for treason ; had felt the
pangs of remorse with all its concomitant
horrors; high minded and proud as he had
been, no wonder time with its scythe and
hour glass, had made such inroads on his
person.
"High minds of native, pride and force
"Most deeply feel thy pangs, remorse !
"Fear for the scourge mean villain have ;
"Thou art the torturer of the brave "
' Just above Hoboken Ferry, on the Jersey
shore, in fall view of the river, stood the
Ihe monument of Hamilton, which had
been erected on the spot where he had
been slain. As the steamboat passed the
monument, one of the passengers exclaim
cd, there is Hamilton s monument. I was
looking Rt the moment in the face of Col.
Burr, as he was talking to the gentlemen
around ; that moment a cloud seemed to
pass over his countenance ; he ceased
speaking and hastily retreated to the Cab
in. 1 went .to the door (which stood open)
to observe him ; he was silting alone in
deep nllping on oue of tho settees ; news
papers in disorder around him, one of which
he held firmly, clonched in his hand rum
pled and disordered
.There. thought I, sits a living and in-
struclive monument of fallen greatness, of
misapplied ambition, a miserable melan
choly wreck and derelict of gmiu3 !
The scenery of the Hudson has been so
often described by abler pens, that 1 would
be carrying Coals to Kow Castle to at
tempt it Suffice it to say, if there be more
beautiful and magnificent scenery m the
world, lam ignorant of the fact, that's all.
lie who can look with cold indifference on
the majestic highlands, the beautiful cities
and villages that dot the borders of the
lifer as he glides cheerfully along, and
not cry all bail ! I to the Catskill moun
tains, immortalized by the slumbers of
old Rip Van Winkle ; is like one having
no soul for music, "fit for treason, strata
gems and spoils."
When we arrived at Albany we found
all classes discussing the merits of the
errand canal, which had been projected by
Devil Clio ton, for connecting Lake Erie
with the Hudson ; the firrt ground of which
had been broken a few days before we ar
rived, just' above Albany and opposite the
city of Troy. This great Statesman and
benefactor of his.species was every where
then ridiculed for bis supposed wild pro
jects ; cannonaded with all the hard names
that those infamous projectiles of mud and
dirt, a prostituted press, could cast at him ,
Caricatured in the print shops; posted in
.. thi barber shops ; ridiculed in squibs and
pi grams ; a stranger to his merits would
bars thought him the most egregious fool
alive luch is tbo tax in our republic, n
man pays for hia eminence, levied and ex
acted without mercy ; such the ingratitudo
of men towards their friends and benefac
tors ; but why should wo . wonder at it,
since they nailed to the Crucifix the ba
viour of their kind? n .
5 1 set "but in a - stage coach for Uallston
Spring. The Sans Souci, and other hotels,
were filled to overflowing. y uv.,.
comniodations, at what was called a pn-
vale bouse, though thero were at the time
70 boarders in the establish mom ; uwumg
there a number of Englishmen from Cana
da with their families ; and a more disa
greeable, impudent set, I never fell among :
they occupied every day at meals, the head
r ,h tr.lft nnd keut entirely aloof from
tho Americans, making within our hearing,
ill natured remarks on the Country, and :
every thing appertaining to it. It will be
recollected it was not long after the last
war, in which they had been so dreadfully
beaten both by sea and land. A liltleFrench
man who was of our Company observed
"no wonder Jean Bool so sour, de stripe on
he back no heal yet." They appeared by
their conversation to have been acquainted
with noblemen only, and my lord such a
one,andsir such a one was continually on
their lips. One day at dinner, a stall-fed
florid looking fellow asked another, "And
how did you leaye Sir James Yeo when
you saw him last." '-In very good health,
most excellent health replied the other."
"Well," continued the first speaker, "its a
pity ho had not taken that old rascal, and
granny, Commodore Chauncey." Now it
will be recollected that during the war
Chauncey commanded tho American fleet
on Lake Ontario, and Sir James the Brit
ish fleet, and that the latter earned for him
self by his tact of running from Chauncey
the title and cognomen of "flying fish."
and could never be brought to action. An
elderly quaker gentleman from Philadel
phia, who was sitting with his family to
my right, seemed deeply agitated ; eleva
ting his head, throwing down his knifn and
fork, and looking the Englishman full in
the face ; "friend," says he, "I perccivo
thee and thy companions are foreigners,
partaking the hospitaiity of our land and
people ; if thee were gcntlemen,thce would
comport thyselves with decency and respect;
we have long borne with thy insolence, and
borne it in silence, because we did not wish
to disturb the crood fellowship of this house.
Thy nobility with which fliee seems so in
timate. 1 presume are iikc tnee, as a man
is known by tho company he keeps ; then
permit mo to say, sir, thy breeding seems
very defective, and as thee has failed to
learn good manners in the primary schools
cf thy nobility, we commend thee to our
free and charitable institutions which nre
accessible to every vajrrant, and where if
thee be teachable at all, thy manners may
be improved ; I tell the thy insolence shall
be borne no longer, and if thee repeat it, 1
shall not be answerable for ihe consequen
ces." I lie n.ngusnmaii ai nm looKeu nag
gers and ratsbane at the old man, but cast
ing a glance down the table and scanning
our firm set countenances, and calculating
tho odds against them ; looked at each oth
er, curled their lips, threw up Iheir noses,
and prudently withdrew their forces within
their lines.
There was every indication that the seed
sown by Obedia's essay and lecture on good
munners, had not fallen on stony places, as
the gentlemen took special tare not to con
tinue the mixture, nor give any more off
ence during their stay at Ballston Spa.
one of their ladies even graciously condes
cending to enter into conversation with Mr.
Robertson, a memberof congress from Lou
isiana: The conversation turned on the
late war ; Mr. R. taking occasion to
comment rather severely on the cruel policy
of England in employing the Indian scalp
in knife; " and pray, sir," says the lady,
" did not your President employ the Ken-
tuckians airaist our people ?" "I plead guil
iv maditm savs Mr. R would you like
to see a specimen of a Kentuckian l " " No
obiection in the world." "What do you
think thev are like?" "They are a kind of
- j "
s avasea, are they not?"
" Anthropophagi and men whose heads
do crow beneath their shoulders."
There sits one now, "pointing to judge
Johnston, " a fine specimen of humanity
" Why" "says she, you dont tell mchal's
a Kentuckian ; he iooks very mucn nice a
0-flnilftman : are the others such V bven
so madam, pretty much alike, though thero
are much finer looking men among them."
" Well, I confess, I had been much misin
formed; what o'clock is it? just 12 1 must
retire to make husband his glass of toddy,"
and she tripped away.
I remained in this locality about a fort
night and moved onward to Saratoga.
Here I found a number of my friends and
acquaintances from Wilmington; among
others Air. O and S. who had
coins on by land since my leaving home.
who gave mo some intelligence of my fami
ly, and maile mo feel quite at home again
We returned lo New York about the 1st
September ; spent 2 months in tho city,
sig'nt seeing ; visited the Theatre, there
then beiug but. one, which stood on Chat
ham street ; saw the tragedy of " Hamlet"
badly perlormea ; vjoopcr nau gone to Eng
land, no first rate actor left. Pritchard,
Hopkins, Robertson, Simpson, ana Mrs.
Barnes, being most prominent; Baw the first
representation in this country of the tragedy
of u The Apostate;" the cast of character
was most fortunate and appropriate
PUcara Pritchard ; Hyinea Simpson ;
M alec Robertson. It had a triumphant
run of many nights in succession ; it was
indeed an excellent and most popular
performance. Pritchard excelled himself
in I'iscara, and fought the Corioli battle
of his fame.
