AnecdOIe Of Gsa. BADGER.

While the American army, after the re
treat from Canada in rl76, lay at Grown
Point, the British forces being at St Johns
the American General was desirous Of ob.
taining Information relative to their aDtici
pated movements.
Lieut.. Badger llate Gen Badger Of Gil
'maRton, N. H., } volunteered for the pur
pose. lie selected three men, who had
been rangers 10 the French war, and who
knew the country well, for bis companions
They embarked in boat and landed neal
St. Johns at dark.
On that night ball was given by the
British officers, Of which they obtained in
formation from a Canadian, whom they
uiade prisoner. Leaving him at the boat
in charge Of two Of bis men, Badger pro
eeeded with the other into the town intend
ing TO make prisoner an officer.
His attendant was well acquainted witt
the locality, and while 10 the dark watching
near a house occupied for officers quarters,
they observed young officer come out in
full ball dress. They sprang upon him be-
fore he was aware Of their presence, and
with presented pistols, compelled him to go
with them in silence.
When they reached the boat, a new and
bolder idea was conceived by Badger
Being of the same size Of his prisoner, he
ordered the latterto change dresses with
him, determined, under the mask Of Brit
ish unform, to attend the ball, aad gather
what infOrmotion be could from the conyer-
sation Of those present,
The circumstances that many Of the Of
feers, who were present, had lately arrived,
and wero strangers to each other, favored
bis enterprise. ...-
lie obtained from their conversation
such Intelligence as he desired; the most
important item Of which was, that Sir Guy
Carleton did not intend to advance toward
Crown Point the present season, but intend
ed to retire to winter quarters in Canada
Lieut.. Badger danced as long as be
pleased, and, when tired Of that amuse-
ment, returned to his boat, released the
Canadian, aud, with his military prisoner,
returned to camp. This news, thus acquir-
ed, enabled the General of the northern
army to detach several regiments 10 rein
force General Washington at Newton, Pa,
and contribute their aid at Trenton and
Princeton.
The oiieer they captured would give no
but Badger had learned sulli
eienl for all purposes. When the captive
army Of Burgoyne marched for Cambridge,
Mass, Lieut.. Badger was attached to the
troops, who acted as their escort On the
second days march, Badger came accident
ally ID the vicinity Of his former prisoner;
the latter, having previously seen none but
hostile faces in the ranks Of the escort, em-

may be unfortunate enough TO he similarly afflicted,
where permanent relief Of their sufferings may be
obtained feels 1t his duty TO thus publicly express his
most sincere gratitude to Dr. 7. j. Czapkay for the
permanent recovery Of his health. Borne down by the
distressing symptoms incident to the vicious practices
Of uncomfortable passion in youth, depressed in body
and mind, unable to perform even the most trifnR
duty imposed by the daily ayocatons Of life sought
the advice Of many physicians who at first regarded
my disease Of triing Importance; but, alas after
few weeks and, in several instances, months, Of their
treatment, found to my unutterable horror, that,
instead of relief my symptoms became alarming
in their torture and being told by one that my dSer
being principally confined to the brain, medicine
would be Of little consequence, despairtd OF ever 10.
gaining my health, strength and energy; and, last
resort, and with but faint hope called upon Dr..
Czapkay, who after examining my case, prescribed
some medicine, which almost instantly relieved Of
the dull pain and dizziness in my head EncouIaged
by the result, resolved to place myself under bis
care, and by strict obedience to all his directions and
advice, my head became clear, my ideas collected, The
constant pain In my back and grOins the weakness of
my limbs the nervous reaction Of my whole body on
the slightest alarm or excitement the misanthropyand

months after having consulted the Doctor felt as II

With a view 10 guard the unfortunate from falling
into the snares Of incompetent quacks, deem u ny
