A REVOLUTIONARY NEW-YEAR'S
lIErH

On Thursday, the first day ofJanuary, Mr..
CUsTis, of Arlington, presented To General
JACKSON the Military Pocket Telescope used
by the COMMANDMENTS Chief of the Armies
of Liberty in the War of the Revolution
To this interesting memorial OF our olden
time, MIR. C.. had affixed silver plate, with
the following inscription:
Frat auctoris, est conservatoris, Libertatis.
l775-I733
Mr. CUsTIs, on presenting the gift, observ-
ed, that although il was in itself of but little
value. there was attached unto il recollrctions
oil the most interesting character. II had been
raised to the eye Of the departed Chief, in The
most awful aud 'mOmrntous periods of our
mighty conflict: il had been his companion
from rs 10 '85, amid the tolls, privations, the
hopes, the fears and the iinal success. of our
glorious struggle for Independence. and as
me memorial OF the Hero who triumphed tn
OBTAIN Liberty, It is now appropriately be-
slowed upon the Hero who Triumph 10 pre-
serveit. Mr.C. requested that as he, the
General, was chiIdless, he would be pleased,
AT his decease, TO leave the Telescope as Alex
ander left his kngdOm-"to the most worthy"
General JACKSON received the Revolution

winch showed that, however time, hard SER
vice, and infrmity, may have impaired frame
no longer young, the heart was still entire,
and alive to the heroic and generous feelings
OF the soldier, the patriot, and the friend
The General replied, that he received re-
nembrance of the great Father of his Coun-
Try with feelings not to be expressed by words.
That, To this Chieftain, under Heaven, we were
all indebted for the liberty and happiness
which we now enjoyed. That il was with
pride and pleasure he found bin ''If selected
AS the depository of any thing which had be-
longed To one, whose memory is fondly cher
lshed by the brave, the wise, and good, of all
nations, and continues to grow with the growth
and strengthen with the strength, of our hap
ply country. That the very fattering marks
OF appreciation and esteem which he recei, ed
from his fellow citizens very far exceeded his
merits. He could say that he had done his
duty, and in the affections of his countrymea
he experienced most grateful reward for
services which it was his fortune and happi-
ness to have rendered. That the relic of the
great and good, he should dearly prize: it
would be treasured among the comforts and
affections of his declining years, and, when he
should be no more, descend To the most

by members Of the auxiliary societies, which
by the return Of the delegates to their resprc-
tive counties, is widely disseminated. This
board has instructed one of its committees

the several counties. in order TO ascertain the
staple growth of each, the probable surplus,
and to what market carried, the number of
grain mills, of fulling mills, cotton or woollen
manufactures, oil mills, iron manufactures
and furnaces, and the probable quantity Of
iron and castings annually made. Whether
any beds of limestone, slate or marble have
been discovered" sc. Sc
committee of selection and publication
has been appointed toeelect from the archives
ut the board, or from such other sources as
they may think proper, materials for volume
on agricultural subjects, to be published and
distributed, under the direction of the beard,

of the county societies.
