JOHN ROGERS CHILDREN.-Those persons
who contend that John Rogers had ten children
can now quote the high authority OF Mr.
Eroude in support Of their opinion. In Vol.
ume VI of his "History of England from the
Fall of Wolsey to the Death OF Elizabeth"
tpp. 3lS-3l9,) just published, Mr.. Froude
says Rogers was committed to the sheriff
and led out to Smithfeld. The Catholics had
affected TO sheer at the faith of their rivals
There was general conviction among them,
which was shared probably by Pole and
Gardiner, that the Protestants would all finch
at the last that they had no doctrine that
would abide the fire. When Rogers appeared,
therefore, the exultation of the people in his
constancy overpowered the horror of his fate
and he was received with rounds of cheers
His family, whom he was forbidden to part
with IN private, were waiting on the way
to see him,-his wife, with nine little ones
at her side. and tenth upon her breast
and they, too, welcomed him with hyster-
ical cries of joy, as if he were on his way to
a festival. Sir Robert Rochester was in al
tendance at the stake to report his behavior.
AT the last moment he offered pardon
if he would give way, bnt in vain. The fire
was lighted. The suffering seemed to be
nothing. He bathed his hands in the fame
as if it was cold water; raised his eyes to
heaven, and died" Mr. Froude quotes a let
ter from the French ambassador, Nouilles, to
Montmorency, in which, after m antioning the
appreciation OF the people, he continues as
follows; CIT memes SEES enfans Y ont assistes
lie consolantes de telle facon quill sembloit
qu'on lie menast aux nopies." Mrs. Rogers
was German lady, and she had lived
with her husband for some time at Wit
tenberg. The reason that his wife and
children went out to see Mr. Rogers on
so sad an occasion was, that they were
not allowed to bid him farewell in his
prison. When he asked to see them, Gardi-
ner refused him with savage taunt, for
which vlIlany, let us trust he is now roasting
in a hotter fire than that to which he sent his
pious VICTIM and which has the advantage of
being eternal and unquenchable, If there
have been men who have earned that everlast-
ing fire which was prepared from the founda-
ton of the world Tor the devil and his angels,
they were those old prosecutors for conscience
sake, who used literally to "rule the roost" in
The name of Rome.

SURVIVORS OF THE REVOLUTION-The de-
parture of the future king of Great Britain
Tor our shores, called forth from all the leading
English journals an unusual number of allu-
sions to the United States. The Saturday
Review has the finest article on the subject.
Strictly speaking, this fresh and vigorous
weekly is incorrect when it says, in regard to
our separation from England, that "the utmost
period of human life has more than elapsed
since that fatal quarrel; and the last man wto
fought IN the War Of Independence, on either side,
has long been in his craze" How many soldiers
who fought on the English side still survive
we have no means Of knowing; but we may
approximately state the number of our relics
Of the men who fought in the greatest war $50
Z far as results are concerned) of the eighteenth
century, According to the last report OF the
secretary of the interior there were on the
30th of June, 1858, two hundred and fifty
three revolutionary pensioners. Between that
time and the end of the last fiscal year, June
80 1859, one revolutionary soldier was in
scrbed upon the rolls at $40 per annum.
Then we should have, if no deaths had occur
red, on the LIST of July, 1859, no less than 254
survivors who bore their part, either for
longer or for a shorter time, in our war of in
dependence; But death deals suddenly and
frequently with men SO aged, and therefore
we find that 80 of them, more than one third,
died in the twelve months eapsng between
July. 1858, and July, 1859 There were,
then, on July LIST, 1859, but 165 living,
and probably to day there are not 100,
all told. Men who are now in the period of
robust manhood can remember in their boy
hood days that revolutionary soldiers were
even then old men. If we consider the battle
ofLexington, April 10, 1875, the inauguration
of our war of independence, more than eighty
five years have elapsed since the "minute
men" of Lexington were ordered by Major
Pitcairn to "disperse," 1t is not probable that
one OF those minute men was then less than
twenty.one years of age There is, we be-
'3leve, no survivor of that battle or skirmish,
which proved so fatal to the expedition under
Pitcairn. Hon. Edward Everett, in his pol
ishcd, eloquent, and forcble Grafton at Boston
on the fourth of July this year, stated that not
a single American soldier who took part in the
memorable battle of Bunker Hill was still liv-
ing but it appears that two old men have
been found in New England, more than one
hundred years DID, who were upon the rolls OF
that gallant band, which, under Warren, Pres
colt, and Gold Put" gave the British such a
disastrous victory. On the 18th of April,
1888, just eight years after the bloodshed at
Lexington, the news of peace reached Wash
ington's headquarters at Newburgh. This
was more than seventy.seven years ago and
the rawest recruit or drummer boy, who
might have been fifteen years of age, would
now be more than ninety.two. Five years
more and there will not in all probability be
living single member of that patriot army
which was disbanded in November, 1888
