The Huzzas of POsterity.

"a little boy; near Hagerstown, in Mary
land, was one day pointing out to me copse
OF trees as the place where Washington. at
the head of the Virginia Rangers, fought
battle, long, before the Revolution, with
some Indians headed by French from Fort
Duquesne, now Pittsburgh. The little fel-
low had some balls of lead which had been
fired in that battle, chopped from the CEN
tiers of the now massive ard aged oaks.
saw the sunbeam of some moral emotion was
in his eyes; and asked him further of
Washington, the brave youth who led the
Virginians into the thicket when the war
whoops shook its boush hs, and the rifle rung
through its gloom. His mind seemed 10
glance like lightning through the illus rous
deeds of arms in which Washington had ea-
gagged, and settled down at the scene o!
Yorktown. He told me of one circumstance
only, said he, when the British troops were
marched out of their entire nchments to lay
down their arms, Washington told the Ame-
rican army, MY boys, let there be no insults
over a conquered loe when they lay down
their arms, don't huzza; p0Sterfta ciE hue,a
for you!'
81 could have Rugged the little boy to my
bosom. Although he had been able to read
bu. short time, yet his mind had drunk
deep in the moral greatness of the act which
spared the feelings of fallen foe. | asked
him what it was that Washington said
posterity would do, he quickly answered,
"hu.za." "Huzza them" said il; and he
sent his clear, wild shouts into the battle
wood, and shouted with him, "Hu--a for
WashingtOn.'

The SEA SgRpESr.-The Norfolk Herald

The SEA SERpESr.-The Norfolk Herald
of Tuesday says that on the day before,
Capt. Berse, of the schooner Eliza Ann
Steele, while at Egg Harbor, on his way to
Norfolk, saw the great "sea sarpent."
"The watch being below, he sent boy,
the only other person on deck, to bring his
glass, and on examining the object through
it he perceived that it was a live monster
1t had then erected its head, which was oval
in form, some three feet above the water,
and he could plainly see one of its eyes,
which was very large and very sparkling,
and surmounted by a huge bunch. The
serpent had evidently become alarmed, and,
before he could adopt any measures to cap
ture it, disappeared, going down headfore-
most, and in doing so gave Capt. B. an op-
portnnity of seeing the whole of his body.
He says the head OF the animal was apPar-
emily very rough and knotted; but the rest
of his body was very smooth and black and
his tail was fiat like an cells. He supposed
it to be at least forty feet long and of the
diameter of hogshead. As soon as it dis
appeared the captain threw the lead and
ascertained that the depth oe the water was
only FIVE fathoms, and says that no whale
was ever in such shallow water, and that
moreover he is an old whaer, has perfect
knowledge of the habits of porpo;ses, black
fish, sharks. ETC., and could easily distin-
guished them"

MOB LAW IN ARKANsAs.-TheM Memphis
BuL tetin has an account of terrible tragedy
recently enacted near Marion, 10 Crittenden
county, Arkansas.
John T. Jenkins, citizen Of Crittendcn
was returning to his residence from visit
to neig ',bor. The distance was only half
a mile. Shortly after he had left two re-
ports of gun were heard, and subsequently
his body was found on the road side, he hav-
ing been shot. L. D. Hendricks and John
w. Garrilt were then arrested on suspicion
OF being the murderers. Much excitement
followed.
On Friday night the mob made an attack
upon the Jail with crowbars and pickaxes.
and, having forced an entrance, a man named
Jenkins, cousin of the murdered man, dis
charged the contents of two pistols and 4
shotgun into the cell (through the bars)
where Hendricks was confined; without
effect, however. The door of the prisoners
cell was then forced, and DR.. Blair, repre-
sented as leader of the mob, was knocked
Senseless by Hendricks, who. armed with a
piCCC vi SIdulilHS upOu
his head four or five inches in length. Hen
bricks was then taken from his cell and led
to the edge of the wood near the lake, where
he was told that he only had five minutes to
live, and to make his peace with his Maker.
HI ndricks's wife clung to him, and appealed
to those in the mob who appeared intent
upon depriving her husband of life to give
him a fair trial by jury of his countrymen.
1.-The court of Crittenden county," she said,
s:will meet on the second Monday of May,
when you can try my husband for the crime
OF murder, and if you can convict him upon
the evidence which will be adduced, hang
him. Mrs. HIS appeal had its effect upon
the group assembled, and her husband Was
taken back to Jail, where he remained at the
latest date. Fears were entertained, how
ever, that another attack would be made on
the Jail, and that both Hendricks and Garritt
would be summarily dealt with by the en-
ragged pupulace.

The CONGRESSIONAL KANSAS COMMITTEE
The Lawrence correspondent of the New
York Times, says:
Last Friday party from Ohio, numbering
nearly one hundred, all wei armed, under
charge Of S. N. Wood, of this place arrived
in town. The same day Governor Robin
son. Senator Reeder, and the Washington
Committee, with the exception OF Oliver, }
and their subordinates, arrived also. Besides,
were Col Perry, and small party from
Providence, Rhode Island. In the evening
a meeting was held in the Free State Hotel,
when Gov Robinson, Senator Reeder, Mr..
Sims, of New Haven, Col. Perry and others,
made very stirring speeches. and all hearts
seemed TO welcome anew our friends from
the States.
Messrs Howard and Sherman left soon
for Lecompton, 10 obtain the records OF
meetings, elections, etc, necessary for their
examination, and returned to this place last
night.
Gen. Whitfield passed yesterday and is
now at Lecompton, in council with Shan
non, Oliver, and other arch spirits of their
dye, preparatory to bringing the black rec.
ords of their unprecedented career before
this Committee. Gen. Whitfield, when iu
conversation with a pro-slavery friend a,
| LeavenwOrth, last week, said: ave stanr
id bad before the country now, especially
at Washington, and I would like to bring
about something, if possible, to prejudice
the Committee against this Free State move
ment."
