The American Sharp Shooters.

Forsyth, so celebrated in the last war as
the commander of band of sharp shooters,
which harnssed the enemy SO much, hap
pened in a scouting party, to capture Brit
ish officer. He brought him to his camp
and treated him with every respect due to
his rank Happening to enter into con-
versation on the subject Of sharp shooters,
the British officer observed that COL For
syth's men were terror to the British camp
thatas far as they could see they could Sc
lect the officer from the pri vate who, of
course fell a sacrifice to their precise shoot
ing. He wished very much TO see spec
linen Of their shooting Col Forsyth in
formed the British officer that his wish
should be gratifed. The colonel ordered
one of his men 10 come forward. and inqui-
ed whether his rifle was in good order
Yes. sir replied the man. He then stuck
a table knife in tree about fifty PAGES dis
tant, and ordered him to split his ball. He
fired, and the ball was completely divided
by the knife, perfonting the tree on each
side. This astonished the British Officer.
Another soldier appeared. He was called
and ordered at the same distance, TO shoot
ace Of clubs out of card. This was ac-
tually done?
The British officer was confounded and
amazed; still more SO when the colonel in
formed him that four weeks before, those
men were at work in the capacity Of hus-
bandmen.
