THAT was the darkest hour Of the
Revolution. The American army was
rapidly dwindling away. poverty was
staring congress in the face, and the
forces of the king, supplied with all
necessary comforts, were flushed with
victory. In those circumstances Wash

CAPTURED A FLEET ON FOOT.
Remarkable Achievement of Five
Revolutionary Heroes.

When Savannah was invested by the
American army Captain French. with
a small body of British regulars and
five small vessels, was stationed TWEEN
ty miles up the river. and the proX-
unity of the American force made him
nervous. Colonel John White of the
Georgia line wanted to capture this de-
tachment, but no soldiers could be
spared by the American general for the
undertaking Now, the colonel was a
determined and mastcrful man and re-
solved to make the venture on his own
account. lie persuaded his three or
derlies and Captain Ethholm to aid
him.
At the fall of night they built great
many fires in the woods near the Brit
ish post, arranged so as to give the inn
preston of hostile camp of large
force Then the colonel and his four
friends. ''imitating the manner of the
staff. rode with haste in various direc-
tiOnS, giving orders in a loud voice.
French became satisfied that a large
body of the enemy were upon him, and,
being summoned by Colonel White, he
surrendered his detachment, the crews
of five vessels and 1870 stands of arms"
Colonel White pretended that he
must keep back his troops. as Tory out
RACES had infuriated them and indis-
criminate slaughter might take place.
He took the parole of the British cap
tain and soldiers not again to serve,
gave them three guides. his orderlies,
to escort them to safe quarters and
hurried them away before daybreak
lest the fury of his pretended soldiers
should fall upon them.-L. T. Sprague

Thomas Jefferson,s PoIiteness.

Thomas jefferson. author of the Dec

eldest grandson were one day riding in
a carriage together. They met slave,
who respectfully took off his hat and
bowed. The president, according to his
invariable custom, returned the salu-
tation by raising his hat. The young
man paid no attention to the negro's
act of civility. Mr.. jefferson. after a
moments pause, turned reproachful
eye to him and said, Thomas, do you
permit a slave to be more of gentle
man than yourself?"

Wyoming Valley Massacre.

The first Fourth of July that helped to
make history after the adoption of the
Declaration was that of 177S. On that
day Tory John Butler, with a party of
loyalists and Indians, raided the beau
tiful Wyoming valley, in Pennsylya-
mia, while most of the men were abb
sent on duty with the army. The wo-
men and children. along with the aged
and intirm, had taken refuge in Il
wooden fort, but under promise of pro-
lection they surrendered and were
butchered, as were also large number
who had remained at their homes in
the valley.
