was supposed that not above twenty OF
the Indians went off unhurt, and only
nine of LovewelPs company escaped
without severe wounds. The remnant
of these brave men, after incredible
hardships and many romantic adventures,
succeeded in reaching Dunstable in the
course of a foresight. Lieut.. Governor
Wentworth, upon receiving news of the
battle, sent Capt. Chesley to Ossipee
and Pigwacket with ftty-two men, to
relieve the wounded and bury the dead.
Col. Tying marched from Massachusetts
with similar design; and having
opened an Indian grave near the field of
battle, discovered body, which was
recognized TO be that of Paugus, the
scourge and terror Of the English.
AT the time of the battle, Saco, which
was fifty miles distant, was the nearest
English settlement.

ESCAPE FROM THE INQUIsIT1oM.
The following highly interesting and romantic
story is from French work entitled & HIS
tortcdl Sketch ofhe principal Political and
MILITARY Eceants, produced blythe Revolution
IN Spain, by M. Louis Julsan''-- published
OF Paris IN 1921.
The Spanish Captain Vanhalen, ma
tive f Cadiz, and particularly known
for his zeal in propagating secret asso-
Citations, had begun in 1917 10 dissemi-
nate .heir liberal principles among the
inhabitants Of the city Marcia, where he
was in garrison. His devotion to this sub
ject could not long remain unpunished ::
he was soon denounced, and conducted
10 prison. His papers, which had been
seized, proved that he had been in cor
respondence with all the secret socie-
ties in the kingdom.--Being thus con-
victed of two crimes at once, the local
authorities considered the matter too i'm
portant to be submitted to their decis-
ion, and Vanhalen was transported, un-
der numerous escort, 10 the prisons of
Madrid, and committed to one Of the
most obscure dungeons in the inquisi-
ton. Preparations were made for his
trial; but as he had declared, from the
first moment of his arrest, that he would
give no answer to the charges against
him, unless in presence of the King,
and this resolution having been several
times reported to the King, Vanhalen
was at length brought before him.
Not at all affected by the tortures ne
had undergone in his captivity, nor by
the almost certain prospect of speedy
and cruel death. instead Of imploring
the favor of Ferdinand, he devoted the
brief interview to, presenting him with
picture of the ruinous situation to
which he had been reduced by his min
istry. He declared TO him that all Spain
was in fact filled with secret societies
that prosecutions, imprisonments, and
scalfolds were vainly employed for
their destruction; that no human power
could succeed in attempting to defeat
their OBJECT; that the persons of whom
the societies we're composed had never
proposed any project against the life o!
the king, nor even against the rank OF
his dignity; that in placing him on a
throne supported by the laws, and by
The love and confidence of the people,
his power would have been raised to
the highest degree of stability; in short,
that in order to secure a happy result,
it might perhaps be sufficient if the King
would, of his own free choice, adopt
the spirit Of those very socieaies, aud

The Wonderful Trauelier.*

Mr.. Holman, blind gentleman. about
thirty-five years of age, and possessed
of an agreeable countenance, arrived
in this city (Petetsburg) 10 July last,
and we understand that he intends to
visit great part of the world He in
quires into every thing, and examines
most bodies by the touch which aston
ishes us So much, that we would not
have believed it, had we not seen it
with our own eyes.t-When he visited
my cabinet, without my saying word,
| took him TO the bust of the Emperor
made by Orlovskii; after feeling which
a short time, he exclaimed, "this IS the
bust Of the Emperor alexander" 1t
ought to be observed, that he had pre-
viously examined bust of his Imperi-
al Majesty, executed by Gesheron, ia
which, as Mr.. Holman remarked, the
forehead was more covered with hair.
He also very justly observed, that the
right ear was more perfect than the left
in the bust by Orlovskii. Mr.. Holman
also recognized the bust Of Peter the
Great, Catherine II. Suvarof, &c. !; he
afterwards examined some Roman coins
and medals: then. at my request, he
wrote the following sentence in my all
bum, with pen and ink: 81 had the

Mr.. Holman has machine, by means
of which he can write readily, and
which is now made use of in most Of
the institutions for the blind.
A week after his visit, Mr., Holman,
on speaking 10 him in The English Mag
azine, Immediately knew my voice.
We believe Mr.. Holman has not left
unexamined a single place worth visit
ing at st. Petersburgh. In the month
of March he left this city for Moscow,
whence he means to proceed into the
interior Of the country, with the pten-
ton Of visiting the greater par; of Rus
STA. On bis return TO England he will,
no doubt, publish the Journal of his
Travels, since he furnished US with an
account of his Journey through France,
Italy, &C., which was read before our
Society, and afforded US all so much
pleasure, that we could not withhold
from the author the tribute Of our
praise. We do not doubt that his work
will prove more agreeable than that
produced by former travelIer.t Mr..
Holman has assembled Mount Vesuvius,
and approached SO near the crater as
TO burn his shoes.
*We are indebted for this account Of Mr..
| Holman, The Blind Tfareller, to Syinin's
Journal. one Of the st. Petersburg period
icais. We understand that Mr.. Holman's
Travels in Russia, particularly in Siberia, are
nearly ready for publication; and we antici-
i pate much pleasure from, their perusal, and
also some amusemeptifor our readers.

so sceptical as to demand such ocular proof.

spect for both the gentlemen, and

MEMORANDA OF LA FAYETTE..


No. X.
Hamilton, Jefferson, Harrison, La,sens.
"Po~ r Hamilton! What shock the news OF
his death must have been to you General
With us it seemed as if there had been ga
breach in nature" We appeared to have had
an evil dream, from which We hoped that we
might be able to awaken; but to you, whose
friendship was so ardent-whose intimacy had
been formed in times so momentous, his tall
must have occasioned more than ordinary
grief. Few greater men, indeed, have ever
''fallen in Israel"
ssHamilton was to to me, my dear Sir, more
than friend-he was brother. We were
both very young, when associated with our
common father; our friendship, formed in days
ofperil and of glory, suffered no diminuton
from time: with Tilghman and with Laurens,I
was upon terms the most affectonate; but
with Hamilton, my relations were brotherly.
Great was the confidence the commander
in chief reposedi in Hamilton. We were re-
turning from the interior with count Rocham-
beau, and the French officers at Hartford, and
during our ride, the General indulged in re-
parks upon the picturesque scenery about
West Point, and the fine effect which the sa-
lutte of the batteries would have upon the echos
of the mountains. We were surprised to OBJ
serve mind, occupied by such high and
mighty cares, unbend to the contemplation OF
the romantic beauties ofnature, andpecuharly
surpassed, as such an occurrence was so rare
1t might be termed calm, which preceded
the storm, whose effects Ne were soon to ex-
perience. Arrived at the Farms, We found
an excellent dinner prepared for our welcome.
Marshalled around the table, and hungry as
hyenas, We inhaled the savoury steams, and
awaited the signal to fall too, when courier
arrived, and handed the General letter: he
read it while standing-a cloud appeared to
pass over his brownie beckoned Hamilton to
him and gave some order, in firm but i'm
posing manner-Hamilton vanished in a
twinkIng. The Chief returned to table
the cloud had passed away-he apologised fol
detaining, and politely requested us to do no
nsr to the feast. Although good and plend
full dinner, twas rarity in those days. still the
meal went off uncomfortably; something O
great moment, we were certain, had occurred
but no one could imagine what it was, unit
We were at length relieved BY the disclosure
OF Arnolds treason. The General waited OF
Mrs. Arnold, and endeavored to assure her o
