REVOLUTIONARY "REMINISCENCES.


The nomination Of Gen. Washington TO
be commander-in-cAief Of The American
Army. The Troy Wing says that there
is very prevalent error existing 10 this
country, as to the individual member Of
the continental Congress who nominated
George Washington TO be commander-in-
chief of the American army--the honor
OF that nomination having been alros,
universally ascri5ed to John Adams of
Massachusetts while il in reality belongs
to Thomas johnson of Maryland, who
soon after signalized his patriotism by
Fastening from civil lie with body OF
Maryland troops, TO join the army during
its retreat through New Jersey, and who,
as a just tribute TO his virtues and talents,
was elected the first governor OF his ma
tive state.
The evidence on which this statement
rests is found in tho following extract
from a letter written by John Adams
himself to colonel Pickering, dated Au-
gust 9th, 1922. After giving an account
of his going to Philadelphia, in IT'S, in
company with Cushing, Somuel Adams
and Paine, -four poor pilgrims" MIR.
Adams says:
"They we're met at Frankfort, by
DR.. Rush, Mr.. Mifflin, Mr.. Bayard and
others, who desired conference, and par.
ticularly cautioned not to lisp the word
independence. They added, you must
not come forward with any bold measure;
you must not pretend 10 take the lead !,
you know Virginia is the most populous
state in the Union they are very proud
of their ancient dominion, as they call il !;
they think they have right TO take the
lead, and the southern states and middle
states are too much disposed TO yield il 10
them.
"This was. plain dealing, Mr.. Picker
Ing and must confess, that there ap.
peared so much wisdom and good sense
in il, that it made deep impression on
my mind, and it had an equal effect on all
my colleagues. This conversation, and
the principles, facts and motives suggest
ed in it, have given color, complexion,
and character TO the whole policy Of the
United States from that day 10 this.
Without it Mr.. Washington would never
have commanded our armies, nor Mr..
Jefferson have been the author Of the
Declaration Of Independence, nor Mr..
Richard Henry Lee the mover OF il, nor
Mr.. Chase the mover Of dissolving for
eign connexions.
If ever had cause to repent of any
part of this policy, that repentance ever
has been, and ever will be, unavailing. |
had forgot to say, nor had Mr.. Johnson
ever hare been the nominator Of Washing
Ton for general.

THE HOUR OF DEATH.

BY MRS, HEMAHs.
Leaves have their time to fall,
And flowers to wither at the north winds breath,
And stars set; but all,
Thou hast all seasons for thine own, oh Death.
Day is for mortal care,
Eve E,r glad meetings round the joyous hearth,
Night for the dreams of SLEEP, the voice Of prayer,
But I'LL for thee, thou Mghtiest OF the earth
The banquet hath its hour,
It's feverish hour of ninth, and song, and wine ;
There comes az day for gIiefs overwhelming power,
time for softer tears, but all are thine.
Youth and the opening
May look like things too glorious for decay,
And smile at thee but thou art not OF those
That wait the ripen'd bloom to seize their prey
Leaves have their time TO fall,
And flowers 10 wither at the north wind Oreaih,
And stars set; but all,
Thou hast all seasons for thine own, oh Death
We know when moons shall wane,
When summer-birds from far shall cross the sea.
| When nutumn's hue shah tinge the golden grain,
But who shall teach when to look for thee
Is it when Springs first gale
Comes forth to whisper where the vioets lie
Is it when roses in our paths grow pale
They have one season; all are ours TO die
Thou art where pillows foam,
Thou art where music melts upon the mir
Thou art around US in our peaceful home,
And the world calls US forth, md thou art there .
Thou where friend meets FRIEND
Beneath the shadow Of the elm TO rest;
Thou ART where foe meets Zoe, and trumpets rend
The skies, and swords beat down the Prncely crest
Leaves have their time to fall
And flowers 10 wither ut the north winds breath,
And stars TO set; but all,
Thou hast all seasons for thine own, oh! Death.

UNITED STATES SUGAR.

That our resders may learn the rapid
advance in the manufacture of sugar, in
that section OF the Union, of which New
Orleans is the shipping port, we ask their
attention to the following: In 1880 the
amount shipped from New Orleans was
next to nothing. In 1886 the quantity
amounted 10 6,46l 500 pounds. In 1910
it had Increased TO 47,005, 500 pounds.
The amount sent up the river to supply
the valley Of the Mississippi, we have no
means Of ascertaining the quantity, how
ever, must be very considerable. This is
more than one.fiith Of all the sugar made
of cane, which is consumed. in the United
States, as there was about l90,000,000
pounds imported in 1880. Should the
manufacture of sugar increase for the
next five years as il has for the last five,
we shall make all our own sugar.
We paid to foreigners, in 1889, for SUI
gar, the sum of SO. 924,622 which ex-
ceeds in value any one article Of our ex-
ports, except cotton.
The shipments Of molasses, too, from
New Orleans to our eastern cities, has in
creased in the same roportion---there be.
ing, in 1886, only 4l9,95s gallons, and
in 1910, $3.50, 400 gallons. In 1889 we
imported 23,094,677 gallons, valued al
81 1854, 234.
We have no means OF knowing the
amount Of sugar and molasses sent from
New Orleans up the Mississippi, nor the
amount of maple sugar made in the United
States, but were nstonshsd to see by the
returns OF the marshalls for taking the
census, that the maple sugar made in New
York alone amounted TO 10,093,99l
pounds--a quantity exceeding one-twenti.
eth OF all imported into the United States.
We cannot close this article without ad-
verting to the fact, that the United States
alone, among all the nations, possess all
that is necessary TO render a nation COM
pletely independent. The rich pastures
of New England, New York, and the
West, covered with immense herds OF
sheep and cattle; the fisheries, manufac.
lures and commerce of New England
the great wheat country of the western
and middle States; the coal and iron, and
water power Of Pennsylvania; the tobac-
CO OF Maryland and Virginia, and the cot
ton. rice and sugar Of the southern States,
viii enable US 10 be an independent
