Who Is HE?--Ths Cincinnati Times says
revolutionary soldier, aged l04 years, was in
tina. city the 4th inst. from visit to his friends
out West and was on his return home in Rich
mond, Va. He is said to be remarkably active.
and never sick but once in his life. The Times
learns that during she revolution he fought in all
the principal battles in North and South Ca, oil
ma. He lost eye at the battle of Cowpens,
under General Morgan, and received two wounds
at the battle of Brandywine, under Washington
and Layette. He was at the battles of Trenton and
Princeton, where the brave Col. Mercer was
shot. He saw Gen. Warren fall at Bunker Hill
while cheering on his troops to victory; and to
sum up, he fought in sixteen battles in New
York and Vermont under Generals Gates and
Arnold.
Again we ask, who is this revolutionary vet
eran? If he be- resident of this city, and 104
years ofage, he is unquestionably the "oldest in
habitant" hereabous.

MIR. Haskins was opposed to both schemes
the York River Rail Road and that suggested by
Mr. McCance. He preferred a water communi-
cation the whole way, and had no doubt the
river could be made adequate to all the purposes
Of commerce if we carry out the improvements
now in contemplation. But if we are to have
railroad at all, he should prefer one to PicSetts
landing, which is fifteen miles nearer to the city
than WiIlcoxes'.
After some further discussion by several other
gentlemen, the resolution of MIR. McCance was
laid on the table.
The ordinance concerning negroes was taken
up and encountered with many amendments
that we are unavoidably compelled to defer its
publication to some future day.
The Cou neil then adjourned.
