When Edward had collected his scattered
faculties, he found himself surrounded with
the snffocating smoke, which strong wind
was bearing, in heavy volumes, from the
westward. The tones Of an alarm bell were
also swinging heavily by on the night wind,
and millions Of sparks and burning fragments
were rising and falling in the west. The d.
reclion of these fiery signs gave rise TO the
worst suspicious, and rushing up the inter-
vening height, which formed the eastern lin

THE D0VNER'S BANNER.

II al began with the GOODNESS and order of
veterans, was sharpened into double quick

to lligM. And reason was there for their
haste. From every copsc of bushes, every

every rol of ,hc ground tu"y had lraver>ri
was wet with the cxp,tiag blood of b ilon,,
They felt more than common fear OF their
fierce pursners. Conscience told them tine

wantonly shed. There existed no war. l he
fourth of July l770 had no, yet come, and
the gauntlet of def NICE WAS not We, thrown
down. They had entered The bosom of a
peaceful lane, like wolves; and like wolves,
they fled at the voice of the shepherd. There
had needed but this impollic step to sever
the colonies forever from their allrgiauce.-
/ That step was taken. The torch of war was
| lit, and 1t was for Britain to quench il as she
might.
Wounded as many were, and fiiaued as
were all ollhe Invading party, it was obvious
that they would follow each other, like the
Cnria,ii, al considerable intervals, and as their
strength permitted. Thus, while some COM
panics were entering Boston, aud ltlIcitatlng
/ themselves on their escape, others were still
ten miles back, dragging themselves on
through the fire of their mcrcilesS enemies.
/ Ii was only on occasion when attempts were
made to intcrccpt their progress that the
British veterans did anything like justice to
their high reputation. Then, charging with
the fury Of despair, they broke their way with
such Tremendous havoc, that the provincalS
would rarely venture again to dispute the
rnad. Whenever it happened, however the
glitter of the British muskrls as they made
the preliminary movements of ready and
'aim,' was generally sufficient to clear the
way without having recourse TO the lhrd
order
! Al length they reached spot where, from
appearances, there had been a fierce srrug

The Warehouse system.

Among The most important matters
brought 10 the notice OF. { ongress by The
Presidents message, and tavorabIy report
ed on by the Secretary of the Treasury,
is the proposed adoption of the warehouse
system al our ports of entry and delivery.
The Language OF the Secretary is clear,
and strongly in favor Of the system. He
says:
IF the cash duties are retained, as it
is believed they should be, the only sure
method of restoring this trade is the adop-
ton of The warehouSing SYSTEM. by which
the foreign imports may be kept in store
BY the government until they are requr-
ed for re-exnnrIation abroad, or consump-
ton at home in which latter contingent
cy, and at the time when for that purpose
they are taken out of these stores for con.
sumption, The duties are paid, and, if re-
exported, they pay no duty, but only the
expense of storage. Under the present
system, the merchant introduces foreign
imports of the value of 100000. He
must now, besides the advance for the
goods, make further advance IN cash,
in many cases OF $4,000, for the duties.
Under such a system, hat a small amount
of goods will he imported for drawbacks
and the higher the duty, the larger must
be the advance, and the smaller the i'm
ports for re expectation.
1.-The imports before payment of duties.
under the same regulations now applied 10
our imports in transit to Canada, may be
taken from warehouse to warehouse-from
the East to the lakes, and to Pittsburg,
Cincinnati, and LonisvilIe-from New
Orleans TO Natchez, Vicksburg, Memphis,
and St. Louis--and warehouSed in these
and other interior ports, the duties remain.
