AFFAIRS ON THE FRONTIER.
From the PhiIadelphia Gazette.

mas Deen held In Detroit forsile purpose VI assah
ing and denouncng this veteran.
The Buffalo Commercial Advertiser justly re-
marks that the name of Hugh Brady is connected
with some of the most glorious events in our
country's history, and a whip should be pvt
"In every honest Land,
To lash the rascal naked through the word,'
who thus ventures to assaiI one who has the hon
orable sears of hundred well-fought fields.
The execution of VoM SHoULTz in Cunada
should carry with il solemn and admonitory
lesson. For his death, no blame is chargeable to
any but those who deceived him. Had Cana
dian headed band, and visited the States with
the same acts and object, the laws would have
hung him speedily. Won Shoultz, who died, it
is presumable as fearless spirit, bred to sol
dership and peril should, acknowledged the JUS
tice of his fate, and wished that ii might be re-
gardcd as the merted fruits of mad and most
deceptious enterprise. "My last acish to the
Americans" he wrote sis, that they may not
think of revenging my death Let no farther blood
be she'd and believe me, from achat hare seen,
that all the stories that arere told about the say
ferings of The Canadian People werc UNTRUE"
Thus perished the gacis of Fort Henry =
man who was made the dupe of potroons and
spectators, and thus assisted to deceive others in
his turn. His bitter feelings on the scaffold may
be well imagined; the awe of approaching death
mingling with unuttered execratons upon those
who pushed him to that ignominous exit; the
pride of manhood struggling with the softness of
repentant feeling; and so he went down to taint-
ed grave what denunciaons too deep or
heavy for the villanous plots which end IN scenes
like these.
We are not disposed to tarnish the fame or to
dsparage the character of the dead, nor to mani
fest any insensibility at the solemn scene now ex-
hbed by the deluded prisoners under the Cana
dian galows; but there is one sentiment expressed
by the Pole in the above, my last wish to the
Americans is that they may not think of revenging
my DEATH" at which we could not represss smile,
that he should suppose that under the circum-
stances, this country would consider him of sufli-
words, to wage war with Great Britain. If by
Americans he only meant those who are influenced
by the same dclusion that he was, we incline to
believe that they, instead Of avenging his death
will find enough to do to preserve their ow,a Ices
