He said +" that he was by no means a
man of superior talents, which the En-
glish supposed-that he was good ge-
neral of division, but not adapted for
the command of great army. Mo-
reau was brave, but indolent. and bon
piuant. He did nothing at his quar-
tier general but Toll on sofa, or walk
about with pipe in his mouth. He
scarcely ever read a book. His dispo.
sition was naturally good, but he was
influenced by his wife and mother-in
law, who were two intriguers. / re-
commended Moreau to marry her, at
the desire of Josephine, who loved her
because she was Creole. Moreau had
fallen greatly in public estimation on
account of his conduct towards Piche.

The University of Maryland.
ST. JOHNS
AND
WASHINGTON

COLLEGES.

THE reputation and welfare OF Mary
land have been deeply afflicted by
the fall of this university /; and although 1t
is the common duty Of every man in the
state TO endeayor 10 reconstruct 1t, there
seems to be something more than an ordi
nary obligation upon those who claim to
be the Alumni of the Institution, to COO
perate, and to make one vigorous, united
effort. TO resuscitate and TO restore 1t to its
ancient usefulness and fame, that they
NAV be the special means OF transmitting
10 their defendants, and 10 posterity gene
rally, the benefits of an Institution which
the wisdom of their .orefathers had created
for them.
II is therefore respectfully suggested 10
the Alumni of this University, where ever
residing to hold a meeting on the hr;t
Monday in August next, at ST. Johns Col
lege in Annapolis, (by permission OF the
Visitors and Governors, 10 take into con-
alteration the practicability OF reyiviDg
this University, the plan, and the ways q
means necessary to effect IT.
As the Chancellor of the state is upon
the spDt, and is always one OF the Visitors
end Governors OF the University, it is also
suggested that he be invited to attend as
President of the Convention.
Should this proposition meet with the
appreciation Of those to whom it is direct
ed. it may be useful to insert short para
graphs IN the several newspapers of the
State. and of the Distric: of Columbia, ia.
vorable to the plan, and urging a general
attendance at the Convention-as Il IS not
only desirable that our onoe distinguished
and venerable "Aima Mater,"' should be
re animated and restored by her Sons, but
particularly so that they should form a
Brotherhood of every surviving member
of The family to undertake the noble work
to which gratitude and duty equally invite.

out the state, and in the District OF Coium-
bia. are requested to give this publication
