WILMINGTON, Del TUESDAY, FEBRUARY ", 1927

John Anderson-we supposed it was. He then
addressed a letter to Gen Washington, in which
he declared his name and rank-it was John Andre,
Of the rank of major, acting adjutant general to the
British army. The fate Of the poor fellow is ell
known--I saw him executed. have frequently
heard it said he agiated, hc.-t is not correct,
at least Tar as il could be seen. He met his death
like q man, and died like soldier, the death Of a
dog. You are at liberty to publish this, OF do sny
thing else with it you please. If there are any
Other facts in which was concerned generally. or
any thing more particularly relating to the melan-
choly fate Of poor Andre, sm willing and ready
at any time to attend to it, and will promptly an
swer any communication. Address to John B..
Spencer, my attorney at Livings,onville

DAVID WILLIAMS.

From ahe !" .,fnerpa" Of 1928.
When Hopes fairy fingers are straylng
O'er the chords of the youthful heart,
And fancy in prospects displaying
The bliss that years may imparf;
When sweet FEELINGS are ever unsprlnging,
And the pulses all joyously beat,
When each day q new treasure is brhgihgs
Oh. then indeed life is most sweet!
When the torch of affection just lighted,
burns bright or the altar Of truth,
Fre the cold. selfish world yet has blghtad
One innocent feeling Of youth.
when earth seems garden unfading,
When flowers cling around our GLAD feet'
When no cloud our bright heaven is shading,
Oh, then indeed life is most sweet.
when the cold breath Of sorrow is sweeping
O,er the chords of the youthful heart,
And the youthful eye dimmed with strange weeping.
Sees the vision Of fancy depart;
when the bloom of young feeling is dying, -
And the breast throbs With PASSIONS herce STRIFE,
When our sad days are wasted in signing,
Who then can find sweetness IN hfe
When unkindness coldEess has faded,
The pure undehled light OF love,
And the mists of the cold world have shaded
The dreams that around our hearts move;
When earth seems wide waste OF sorrow,
No longer with bright blessings rlie,
When we look but for clouds on each morrow,
