Revolutionary HcniIni,ccncc.

When the American army retrcated
from Canada, after the disastrous eXpedi-
ton to the Three rivers, it lay some time
at Crown Point, while the British army
occupied st. Johns. The American
General desired to obtain some informa-
ton in regard to their anticipated move
ment's. Mr.. Badger volunteered for the
purpose cmbarking with three others IN
boat, he landed near st. Johns about dark.
1t happened upon that night ball was
given by the British officers, of which
they obtained information from a country
man whom they made prisoner. Leaving
him in the boat in custody of two of his
party, Badger proceeded with the Others
into town, with the view of making priso-
ner of some of the officers. He was well
acquainted with the localities of the town.
and watching near house occupied toi
officers quarters, at last discovered an
officer coming out ready dressed for the
ball. They sprang upon him ere he was
aware of their presence, and with Loaded
pistols presented at his head, commanded
him in silence to follow them. Whcr
they reached the boat, a new and boldel
idea struck Badger, being of nearly cqua
size with the prisoner, he ordered the
latter to exchange clothes with him; ant
determined under the mask of British
uniform, to attend the ball and gather
what information he could from the con.
versation of those there present.
The circumstance that many Of the
officers under Sir Guy Cartoons com
mand had recently joined his army an(
were personally unknown to each other
favored his design. He collected from
their conversation what intelligence h,
desired; danced as he pleased, and whel
tired of that amusement, returned to hi
boat---discharged the countryman, ant
with his other prisoner returned in Fri
umph to Crown Point Had he beer
detected, the fate of Major Andre and o
Capt. Hale had been his. But he wa
moro fortunate. --.4merican Traveller.

DR.. JArNE-Dem Sr.--By the blessing of God
your INDIAN EXPECTORANT has effected
a cure in me of a most distressing complaint In
December last, | was seized with great severity
by Paroxysm of Asthma; disease with which
had been afflicted for many years past. Vt was
attended with hoarscness and soreness of the
lungs and throat, together with laborious cough
and complete prostration of strength, and when
almost worn out with suifocaton a bottle of your
Eypectorant was sent to my house. At first
thought it was nothing but quackery. but seeing
it so highly recommended by DR.. Going, with
whom was well acquainted, was induced to try
it, and in few days it completely cured me, nor
have / ever had any return of the disease since.
have now formed SO high an opinion of your
medicine, that if had but few bottles of it, and
could obtain no more, would not part with them
for len dollars each.
Yours, most respectfully,
