ESCAPE OF GREATHoUsE. The escape
Of Ridgely Greathouse from Fort Lafay-
ette is thus described by himself in let.
ter TO friend:
"On the night Of the 18th of July,
having provided myself with bottle of
brandy under pretense of using it for
medical purposes, had sawed the bars
Of my cell window, and under cover of
unusual darkness got out, crawled past
the sentry, and let myself down from the
parapet into the water. The noise made
by falling into the water attracted atten-
ton, and Immediately that side of the
fort was illuminated by rockets, and guns
were fred into the water, and boats were
sent out. swan around to the opposite
side in the dark until the boats had pass
ed toward the shore, when I silently
struck out with the tide, it being food,
for New York. / had summer coat and
pants which tied round my waist, had
on w0olen shirt, my bottle Of brandy in
my bosom, and my shoes slung over my
neck. l seemed to have five times my
usual strength. and in short time l was
far away from the fort and could see the
lights and the guards. By this time
began to get tired and much chilled.
turned on my back and taking out my
brandy took good drink to the health Of
Burk, the commander of the fort, knowing
he would catch -, the next dav, for
my escape. The brandy and the great
stake for which I was playing gave me
renewed strength, and again struck out
and swan, making fast time. After being
in the water about an hour and a-half,
landed and walked ten miles to Brooklyn,
went from there to Williamsburg, and
knowing there was telegraph to all the
ferries, | hired boy to cross me into
New York with boat. | Immediately
went up town and sought this portion Of
the city, the lowest and most degraded,
where / suppose o respectable person
never came before, and where am now
writing this letter, having no apprehen-
sion Of being taken. Before you receive
this you will doubtless hear by telegraph
Of my safe arrival in Canada. They took
all my money away at the fort, but
have enough to carry me across the line.
No one but myself escaped. A few days
before, several attempted to escape, but
they were detected and heavily ironed." "

So your meeting hands shall clasp,
Cradle her from earth to heaven,
Till the angel's, bending, grasp
At her shining garments trailing
On the path among the stars,
And before the soul triumphant
Lowered lie the crystal bars.
There is no wire electric yonder,
Where the peaceful spirits rest,
For coming i'll, nor wailing message
To the soul supremely blest;
But ever still when stars are watching
Thrilling through the space between,
A mother seems to send her greeting

A traveller called very late for bis break

This sulky demeanor rather vexed the

The weary, hungry one laid down his
