The late Joshua Reynolds ofthe
WASHINGTON Battalion.

In the midst of the rejoicings on the occa-
sion of orr recent great victory in Virginia,
we are called upon to mournsthe loss of many
dear ones fallen martyrs to our country S sacred
cause. Among these, none has been more con
spicions for manly bearing. devoted PATRIOTISM
and generous chilvarous courage, than he whose
name stands at the head of this, who has fallen
upon the field or honor, and thus set a seal, as
il were, on q life OF merit and virtue.
1t has been happily said: "l4he event OF our
designs, as it relates to others, is uncertain;
but as it relates to ourselves it must be pros
porous, while we are in the pursuit Of our duty
nnd within the terms upon which, Providence
has insured oar happiness, whether we die or
1--we. All that nature has prescribed must oe
good; and as Death is natural to us, 1t is, alb
snrdity to fear it. Fear loses itspurpose when
we are sure it caunot preserve us, aud we shoula
draw resolution to meet it from the imposs j.
bility to escape it, aud without q resignation
to the necessity of dying, there can be no ca
pacity in man to attempt any thing that Is
glorious"
TO a man like Joshua Reynolds such reelection
are the necessary consequence OF his actions;
and dying, as he did, in the performance OF q
high aud noble duty to his country, who can
doubt, that his end has been as glorious, US
his life has been pure and unselfish.
Descended from the old stock of the sons
of the ancient Commonwealth of Connecticut.
Joshua Reynolds had learned from the lips of
his parents those principles of liberty which
were the birth-right OF a race, now unhappi'y
given over ia 40 nnha lowed ambition, which
s~tultifies the actions and teachings Of its pro-
genitors; and in defence Of those principles he
as laid down his life beneath the bright skies
Of onr Southern cline.
Whilst, then, we may mourn his early death.
in the vigor ofhis youth, as an irreparab'e loss
to his afflicted parents, we still may say ofhim,
as of others of the slain in our holy cause.
Thrice happy they beneath our Southern skies,
Who that worst fear, the fear of death, despise!
Hence they no care for this frail being feel,
But rush undaunted on the pointed steel,
Provoke approaching fate, and bravely scorn
To spare that life which must SO soon return" q
