bE FOrce-A Famous Retreat.
The presers agitation CONCERNING the re-
latlons between Canada and the United
States recalls the time when the annexa-
-Mon OF that country was proposed to be
brought about by fprceof arms. The prof.
ect was entrusted tot the brave GenerA
Montgomery, assisted by the famous patri-
OTIS, Colonels Ethan Allen and Seth Warner.
While engaged in this invasion Ethan "a lien
was taken prisoner by the British and sent
to England, where he experienced very
harsh treatment. #
1t was Colonel Warner who twice con.
Quoted his men safely home, though the
march was constantly surrounded by dam
gers. Once Montgomery sent them home.
because their time was out, and though
they were willing to continue In service.
they were without sufficient clothing, and
none could be had IN that country.
Colonel Warner had hardly arrived home
before he heard that Montgomery had been
killed, and the cause, as well as the lives OF
the men, were put in great jeopardy He
collected his men again and at once started
Tor Canada to assist his countrymen IN their
extremity. But his efforts were Of no avail,
and it was soon found necessary to take up
the line Of retreat.
It was the dead of winter, and only ne
cessity sanctioned moving the troops. The
terror Of pursuit and the rigOr of the sea-
son furnished sufficient cause for alarm and
haste. Colonel Warner remained with the
rear Of the army, and aided them in many
ways most efectually, asnhe was man
well posted in caring for the sick and this
knowledge now came into excellent use
He must keep the army in motion, not
day must be lost, and yet he was without
any chest of medicines. But he understood
the medicinal use Of roots and herbs and of
proper care at critical times, and with these
allies, he made an eRectual fight against
disease among his men,.
When Ilconderoga was reached and the
roll called, thanks to Seth Warner but few
vacancies in the ranks appeared.
= Col. Warner saved the lives of hundreds
OF men in this way, and he did noble
work, but it remained for his namesal1e, r.

Being wholly vegetable, they can be used
