AMERICAN CUTLERY.

1t may not be generally known that some of
the finest cutlery which can be found any
,chfre, is manufactured by Messls. HoLLEY &
MERwIN, at Lakcvillc, in this county. AT the
recent New York State Fair, several speci-
mems from their establishment were exhibited,
which we see very highly commended by Mr.
Greeley in a late number If the Tribune. We
are gratifed to notice, also, that silver medal
was awarded to these cnterprisng gentlemen
by the Hartford County Agricultural Society,
for the best specimens of pocket cutlery exhi-
bited at their Fair on the Sd inst
From the Hartford Courant Of Saturday last'
we cut the following paragraph:
Mr.. l, A. Rragaw presented US yesterday
with most beautiful Pocket KNIFE, with
three blades, from the manulactoty OF Messrs.
Holley & Merwin, Salisbury. Tie handle is of
rich she'll, and the finish is equal to any tfing
of the kind we have ever seen. These Knives
are said to be tnlly equal in quality TO the bls
of Rodgers make, and are sold much cheaper.
We take pride in noticing such specimens Of
Amer skill.

ETHAN ALLEN.

The writings of Gen. Allen were like him
$clf-bold, pointed, often ingenious, but
without polish, and sometimes with little re.
linemcnt or taste. In addition to several
between the Green Mountain Boys. he pub
lished Narrative of his captivity in vol
umc of nearly ECO pages, and a work enti
tied, "Allen's Theology, or the Oracles of
ReaSon,n the design of which was TO ridicule
the idea of revealed religion. AS may well
be supposed, this last work added nothing to
his popularity even in his own neighborhood.
Descended from the puritans, the people Of
New England had too much reverence for
the religion of their ancestors 10 see it as
sailed with IMMUNITY even by one who had
been a favorite. Preachers acclaimed a
sainst him, critics derded, and poets lam
pooned him.
An interesting fact is related of Gen.
Allen by the late President Dwight, which
would indicate that the veteran hero had in
system of divinity. He had a fayorite
and much beloved daughter, who had ear
sly been instructed in the principles of Chris
tianity by her piOus mother, and into whose
mind he had also labored to inst:l his own
peculiar sentiments. She died young, and
in her last sickness she called her father
to her bed side, and thus addressed him:
Father, l am about TO die shall be-
leve in the doctrines which you have taught
me, or in those which my mother has taught
me ?" Alien was overcome with emotion
his lip quivered, his voice for moment
faltered "My child, believe what your
mother has taught you," was his reply.
