Equestrian Statue of George III.

Samuel F. Lambert, Esq. of Wilton,
left at our office on Saturday last. three
several pieces of this statue which were
purchased by him of the heirs of David
Sloan, who lived in the old house about
three. fourths of mile above the Episco,
pal Church, on the Danbury road. These
of mu,ilated royalty, Mr.. l..
informs US, were brought from New York
previous TO the British taking that city,
but whether thro' reverence, or as a me-
mentO of Yankee valor, we are left to con-
lecture. These portions are somewhat
massive, and comprise an arm in toler-
ably perfect state, the fingers having
been apparently hewn off good sized
piece ofthe body Of the horse or rider, it
is difficult to tell which and a third
piece which looks like a portion of the
garments or drapery. The material of
the statue is a metal, or admix,ure of
metals, resembling lead but somewhat
harder, which is now partially covered
with bronze. Any person wishing 10 ex-
anime these relics of a former day, when
the fires of true patriotism warmed every
American breast, and every nerve was put

MAJOR .KRkLW

The Journal of Commerce lately contain
ed an article relating to the late Major ia
cob Brown, who was killed by the bursting
of Shellduring the bombafdment Of Mat
amoros. The facts there stated are incor-
rect in some CT the particulars. We learn
from a gentleman Of this city, who has been
personally acquainted with Major Brown
aud his family for upwards of twenty years,
that ClarkSburg. in Berkshire County, in
this State, is believed to have been the Ia
tive place of this gallant officer for there
his father has Tesided for many years and
been aided and often visited by his son.
The Journal of Commerce says the Ma
ior left no family. This is an error. He
left wife and two daughters. The former
has been an inmate of the Mclean Asylum
for ten or twelve years, and is MT now con-
scious of the death of her husband. His
daughters were educated at Roxbury,. and
until about three years ago resided there in
family, between whom and the Major
there have long existed thekiadest f.elings.
But having been appointed to the command
of the garrison at Pensacola, he took his
daughters with him-they having compile
ted their education. The youngest has
since been married to a Surgeon in the U.
s. Army, who was attached to his regiment
at the time he received his mortal wound.
Major Brown was noble specimen of a
man. He was modest and unassuming in
his department and possessed a heart over
flowing with the milk of human kindness.
As an officer he was distinguished for his
courage, military skill, GOODNESS and decis-
ionin the hour of battle. General Taylor
in his official dispatches, pronoInces his
loss sirreparable.' He was an Orderly Ser
geant al the battle of Chrysteler's Field, on
the bank of the St. Lawrence during the
last war with Great Britain, and for his
gallant conduct in that action he received q
commission. ...a.. -.... ..s..-.... .,....--..a,
Since the peace of 1915, Major Brown
has teen employed on the Staff great por-
tionof the time. His sound judgement, his
integrity and business capacity, rendered
him a valuable officer in time of peace as
we'll as war. He served two or three years
in the memorable Florida campaign. He
passed some years at Little Rock, Arakan-
sas, engaged in matters connected with our
Indian relations. While there he was cho-
sen President of the Bank of Arkansas,
an Office which he thought proper to decline
as incompatible with his situation as an Of
ficer of the army.
This gallant officer received his fatal
wound while experimenting the labors OF
the soldiers in constructing the 'bOmb-proofs'
of the fertilization, opposite Matamoros--
His leg was shattered by the fragment Of a
she'll, and while Re was conveyed 10 the OPP
Grating station, he exhorted the soldiers
whom he passed, to do their duty faithfully
and never give I'D the fOrtl
Such was Major Jacob Brown. He
faithfully fulfilled his duties in all the re-.
lations of life, and was honored. respected
and esteemed by all who knew him.

A Bomb-proof Town.


Ihave somewhere heard Of aregiment or
dered to march into small town, and take
it. 1t was thinkin Tyrol but wherever 1t
was, it CHANGED that the place was settled by
a colony who believed in the gospel Of Christ,
and proved their faith by works. A courier
from the neighbouring village informed
them that the troops we've advancing totake
the town. They quietly answered, off they
,oiN take it, they must" Soldiers soon
come riding in with colors flying, and pi-
ping their shrill defiance. They looked
round for an enemy, and saw the farmer at
his plough, the blacksmith at his anvil, and
the women at their churns and spinning
wheels. Babies crowded to hear the music,
and the boys ran out to see pretty trainers,
with feathers and bright button, the harle-
auins of. the 18th century" Ofcourse none
of these were in proper position TO be shot
at. @Where are your soldiers ?'' they ask
ed. "We have none," was the brief reply.
"But we have come TO take the town."
" Well, friends, it is before you" But is
there nobody to fight ?" ono, we are all
Christians"
Here was an emergency altogether unpro-
vided for a sort of resistance which no bull
let could hit a fortress perfectly bomb-proof.
The commander was perplexed. "lf there
is nobody to fight with, Of course we can
not fight" said he. ut is impossible TO
take such town as this " So he ordered
the horses heads to be turned about, and
they carried the human animals out OF the
village as guiltless as they entered, and per-
chance somewhat wiser.

the midst of any controversy to give its due
praise to any thing tolerable, thatwas either
said or written against him:n r

FOR THk ENQUIRER:
OUR LOVED LOST ONES.
Our loved Ones-they have persisted
From round our hearthe and shrines;
Those we 90 fondly cherished,
Have passed to fairer climes.
Our loved ones-lhe departed
How memory round them clings!-
The pure, the gentIe.heaTted,
That fed on angel.wings!
Alas, alas, how feeting
Are ell the joys we tell
Scarce breathe the happy greesinSs
Ere comes sad farewell.
Friend over friend is weeping,
And kindred ties are torn;
Grief, her sad vigils keeping,
Bends DER the sculp,used urn.

Where. all earth's trials past.
Loved hearts shall ne'er be riven,
And joy viii ever last.

SINGULAR SUICIDE.

Our exchanges from the interior of the
State, brought accounts Of suicides COM
mitted by two young men. One was a
strange freak enough, as told by the Oswego
Gazette: Edward Baldwin, of Nicolas, had
been out hunting and on his return met a
couple Of girls, and while engaged in con
versation with them, asked ii they would
like to see him shoot himself. They answer
ed yes. At this, he got the muzzle of the
gun into his mouth and placing his foot on
the trigger, blew out his brains! The other
is told of BY the New Orleans American;
"a young man about 81 years of age
named William Warner, step-son of MIR.
Giles Hard, of Gaines, residing about one
mile north of the long bridge, some four
miles west of this place on the canal, hung
himself on Saturday morning last. He
was found dead, Suspended by the lines of a
harness in a barn shed near the house.
He probably threw theiincs over beam in
the shed, got on to the hub of the wheel of
wagon there, formed a slipping. moose, with
the lines, in which he placed his neck, and
then swung off into eternity"

BY Barry Cornwall.
How many Summers. love,
Have I been thine?
How many day, my dove,
Hast thou been mine!
Time like winged bird,
When Z bends the flowers,
Hath left no mark behind
To count the houIs!- .r '
Some weight of thought, though 10th,
On thee he leaves;
Some lines Of care round both,
Perhaps he weaves;
Some fears, soft regret
For Joys scarce known;
Sweet looks we half forget
All else is flown!
All with what thankless heart
Imourn and sing;
Look where your children start,
Like sudden spring;
With tongues all sweet and low,
Like pleasant rhyme,
They tell how much ! owe
To thee and thine!

One day between the Lip and Heart
A wordless strife arose,
Which was expertest in the art
His purpose to disclose.
The Lip called forth his vassal Tongue,
And made him vouch--a lie!
The slave his servile anthem sung,
And braved the listening sky.
The Heart to speak, in vain essay'd,
Nor could his purpose reach
His will nor voice nor tongue obeyed;
His silence was his speech.
Mark thou their difference, child Of Earth
While each performs his part:
Not alt the Lip can speak is worth
