A meeting Of tho survivors Of the scenes which
occurred in tho Dartmoor Prison, during the war Of
eighteen hundred and twelve, was held on Thurs
day evening, at the house Of Mr.. A. jackson Allen,
No. 81 Bowcry. At half past o'clock, number
Of hale and hearty veterans assembled. The meet
ing was not SO numerous rs was anticipated,
owing to the varied walks in Life into which crcum-
stances have led forced many Of the companions.
Mr.. Lewis d. Glover, Mr.. Rueben Bum, and Mr..
William Wolfe, present; Is, also, some scions
Of the old stock, who came to learn, if possible tho
exact fate Of their respected progenitors.
The chair was taken by Mr.. Lewis B. Clover, by
whom the general object Of the meeting was stated.
He said, .Feow sufferers-I have taken upon me to
issue call for this meeting, ia order that we may
have an opportunity of consulting if il would not
be advisable to form an association for mutual
benefit and intercourse. 1t is now moro than quar-
ter Of century since we woro immured within the
walls Of Dartmo,r Prison. The sufferiags we
have endured never be eifaced-they must re-
MAN, but fear, my friends, that we are in good
measure forgotten Those OF our generation will
have passed away, and then no one can write our
history. The soldiers Of all our battles are invited
to participate in every ceremOay but the authorities
seem to forget the old sailors Of Dartnoor The men
who humbed the flag of the Wanted mistress of the
should not be forgotten. fothers do not remem
Der us, we gentlemen should not forget ourselves.
We should meet, at all events, for mutual benefit,
and renew the recollection of our hardships in order
that we may find pleasure in contrasting the great
of our country With her past pcrl and perhaps.
when our fellow citizens come to know us better,
they may be induced to accord suitable resting
place to the bones Of our martyred brothers-the
same it is contemplated to afford to the heroes OF
the Revolution, who died on board the Jersey
Prison Ship" At all events, gentlemen, We should
take some measures to ensure our meeting, and see
if our fellow citizens for the cmores Of their
sires, who perished by the perils Of the deep.
This speech met with universal appreciation.
Anecdotes of the "Pr;son" were told; and before
separating, the old men fought their battles ovor
again.
They told story Of one George Small, an Ameri-
can, who married an English woman; his wife was
permitted to be on board with him, and when she
was near to her confinement, the husband and some
comrades wrapped her up in our national banner,
Small asserting that his child should be born under
the American flag.

CoNJUGA AL AFFECTIoN.--Hon. Horace
Mann, in his eulogy on Hon. Robert
Rantoul, late q. S. Senator from
Massachusetts, related the following
touching instance of conjugal affec-
ton, in connection with the last ill.,
ness Of the deceased:
"Yet Mr.. Rantoul, even amid the
agonies Of his disease, had lucid in
teryals.- There were convictions in
his heart so strong, as to stand I'M
moved by any tempest of delirium-
On being telegraphed respecting the
illness Of her husband, his devoted
ana excellent lady, then in Massachu-
sets, FASTENED to his succor. She
arrived here at six o'clock on the
morning Ct the day he died. In
stantlv he r voice wooed back con-
seriousness and reason. He seized
her hand in his, and held it till he
breatlied his last. Even wien his
mind wandered, this grasp Of affection
was uncle nched Death only re-
Taxed it..
fThe swelling Of the disease had
closed his eyes, and it was beyond the
power Of m muscular contraction to open
them. He desired to have them
opened by mechanical means, that he
might once NOR behold the features
and the face whence, for over twenty
years the light of love had shone
down into his heart. Thank God,
sir, that amid all the alterations, and
strlfes, and hOstilities which seem
sometimes TO flow out Of the human
bosom as though it were the natural
fountain, there are also affections,
sympathies, tenderness, and loves
which are inseparable from it, and
which We always may find there,
close as green to the yerdant leaf, or
color to tie rose. ="
