.1 RETRO SPE CTIUN.
I thought of the hours when Fancy 'pl'.1y’tl light:
And Hope in her colours of rainbow was drest :
‘vVheii the vision of happiness gleam’d o'er my
sight,
And the sunshine ofBeauty illumin’d my breast.
I ask’cl of my heart where the charmer hatl fled,
W',ho so long o’er my bosom had heltl her con-
_ trol-—
"+Vho sported her chaplet of roses, and shed
The honey of pleasure, antl ravish’d my soul ?
My heart was in anguish, and could not reply—-
Long s" cc it had been the abode of Despair;
The bright dawn of morning pass’tl heavily by,
And the evening’s dark shade found the sor-
ceress there.
Full often, with leaden hand pl'eSSiil§.7j, she strove,
And forbatle me to taste of the full cup of joy ;
Che wither’d the blossoms of fi'ieudsl:ip and love,
And the gold of felicity cli;u‘.g’d to alloy.
I turr.’d. and beheld a fair being apprar;

The light of tranquility beam !_ lrom her eye, ,
ly broke on my
VVhile b-tar voice of sxvt-at mclot
car,
Like the harp of the c‘.iert:bi.'n, liymmng on
high.
‘Know, mortal, (she cried,) in this vall-.=.y of tears,
The pleasures of youth are the (lrt-tamzs of a day;
But RELiGio:,' will brighten futurity’s years,
And lead to those joys that will never decay.
’Mid the trials and pains wliich the faithful await,
There’s a sweet Star ty“ Con.;f'ort dispelling the

She ceas’d, and to Heaven directed her flight--—
A train of lov’tl Spirits attentletl her there ;

And chas’tl from my heart the tlarl; fientl of

other times rlexterously veering from the roclz.s,
and shooting through the only narrow passage ;
until, at last, they viewed the boat safety glltliiig
on the smooth surface ofthe stream below. l‘/la-
jor Putnam, after a most gallant defence, was tak-
en prisoner by the Indians. The savage '.'-/ho
claimed him as his prisoner, (liSal‘I‘Ilt’,(l him and
bound him to a tree, and then re‘.uriicd to the
ban],-;, our brave commanders, having Ct)llc:Clr.'(l
together a few men, gave their pursucrs so warm
at reception, as obliged them to retreat ii»;-yoiltl the
spot where the action originally comrncnced;
Change of ground brouglit the tree, to which‘ our
gallant. Putnam was bound, in the centre of the
two fires. It is impossible to imagine a more
desperate situation. The balls flew in every di-
rection from both sides, many of wliicli struck the
-‘tree, and some passed through the sleeves and
skirts of his coat. in this situation, he was obli-
ged to remain for more than an _hour, without
being able to move any part of his body. The
Indians were defeated with the loss of about 90
:men, and in their i‘etreat, did not fail to take their
illustrious prisoner with them. Our hero was
stript to his shirt, his wrists were tied close to-
gether, and he was loaded with as many packs of
the wounded as could be piled on him. The In-
dian who captured him, had been absent on busi-
ness, but now coming up, presented him with a
pairof mockasons, and expressed great indigna-
tinn at the unworthy trqment his prisoner had
suffered. They took Major Putnam _\_vith them,
...._...__...
diet a deep wound with a tomahawk. It was de-
termlned to roast him alive ; and for this purpose
they let] him into a dark forest, stripped him na-
ked, bound him to a tree, and piled dry brush with
other fuel, at a small distance in a circle round
him. Their object being thus prepared, fire was
put to the piles, but, as if the Divine Power inter-
posed, a sudden shower of rain damped the kind-
ling flame. Still they exerted themselves, and
finally succeeded ; the fierce element: ran with
amazing swifmess round the circle, antl Major
Putnam soon began "to feel the scorching hcat.-—-
He thought his final hour had come. At this
juncture, a French officer rushed through the
crowd, dispersed the burning brands, and unbound
the almost lifeless victim. That brave command-
er instantly put a stop to their nocturnal power
and infernal orgies. Major Putnam was exam-
ined by the Marqnis tle Montcalm, and conduct-
ed by a Frencli oflicer to Montreal, where he was
treated with great kindness and llUI‘nalli'tf, at
which place he remained till he was exchanged.
Shortly after his release from captivity, he was
raised to the rank of l.iec'.enant Colonel, and in
1774, he was promo'.t-:d to a Colonelcy and the
coinmantl of 2. regiment.
Colonel I’utnam, at the expiration often years
from his first rtceiviiig a commission, aflcr hav-
ing seen as much service, endured as much hard-
ship, emzotzntci-etl as much clauger, and acquired
as many laiircls as any ofiicer of his rank, with
{great satisfaction laid aside his uniform, and re-
turn:-tl to his ploiigh. He was frequently electetl
a incnil:ei' ofthe General Assembly of Connecti-
cut.
General Putnam was ploughing in his field,
when the news arrivetl of the comimcncement of
hostilities at Concord. I-fc instantly unj.‘ol;ed his
team, and not waitirzg to cliunge his clothes, re-
paired to the theatre of action. He was now pro-
rnoted to be Il’i£l_j:’1‘-‘ General by Congress. on the
continental e:-tublisbmeiit. At the battle of Ban-
KTT’-? 1155/, the presciice and aniniating example
of General Putnam, who arrived at a most critical
juncture, were not less conspicuous than import-
ant. Upon the loss of Fort l\‘lonigoiriery, the
coniman-:;lcr and chief was determined to have
anothci' fortification built to defend the river; and
accoi'diiit;ly, his excellency requested Gen. Put-
iiani to fix upon a proper spot. I-lo considered
Vt.-zit I’-wiut as the most suitable and advanta-
ori wiioin they had the inhuman barbarity 3 -1- ”
Old Maitfs.--A sprightly’ writer sapresses his
opinion of Old Maids, in the following manner:
6 I am inclined to believe that many of the sa-
tirical aspersions cast upon old maids, tell more
to their credit than is generally imagined. Is a
woman remarkably neat in her person? ‘ she will
certainly be an old maid!’ is she particularly rc-
scrved towards the other sex? ‘she has all the
squeamishness of an old maid.’ Is she frugal in
her expenses, and exact in her domestic con-
cerns? ‘ she is cut out for an old maid !’ And if
she is kindly humane to the humble animals a-
bout her, nothing can save her from the appella-
tion of ‘an old maid 1’ In short, I have always
found, that neatness, modesty, economy, antl hu-
manity, are the iiever-l'ailiii,'; characteristics of
that terrible creature-—‘ an old Zllaid.”
Old J3aclzclors.—'I‘lie bill lately introduced by
Mr. Coit into the Legislature of l\lziryland, for
laying a tax upon this article o/‘luxury, is cnlillcd
‘an act to promote the happiness ofthe people I’
In New-Hampsliire, on the other hand, it is pro-
posed to give old bachelors, as old coiitinentals, zt
/icnsion to cheer their gloomy lives.
In the present day, when old bachelors have
become so serious an evil, as to need legislative
interference, we think that the following expedi-
ent adopted by a lady in Connecticut, of rather a
(Zeus-/1E7‘u!c’ age, will afford an excellent hint to some
of our statesmen towards an effectual remedy.—
The circumstances are these :—-A lady became
extraragantly fond ofa younglawyer in the neigh-
borhood, who treated her partiality with great
levity. Finding her suit rather hopeless, and be-
lug fully determined to enter the estate of matri-
mony at some rate or other. she adopted the fol-
lowing plan :——'All at once she was taken violent-
ly ill, and her malady seemed to threaten death ;
at this crisis she sent for the young lawyer todraw
her will. and to his utter astonishment, she dis-
posed of an enormous estate, in legacies, and in
entlowirig public institutions. She shortly after,
however, recovered to enjoy her own wealth, anti
the young lawyer liegaii to feel something like
love for her; his addresses becaiiie constant, and
his attentions marked; in fact, in a short time
they were married—-but alas I he had to take the
will for the dew’.
Robbery.—Thc lotlgiugs ofa Philadelphia dandy
goons, and it has been said with propriety, that
tilt’. glory of ii‘-.ivin:.,r chosen this rock of our mili- l
tary Sal‘-aziun, depended entirely on his choice.
C-cu. l’utna:n ab-oiit the middle of winter, was on
‘d visit to his om-posts oii Horse-neck; he found
t.-ovcrnor 'l‘i_von advancing upon that town with
a corps of 1500 men ; he ordered the piquet to
provide for their safety, by retiring to a swamp
iiiziccessible in the horse. ; and secured his own by
pltingiiig clown a precipice on full trot. The
dragtrons that were but a s\vord’s length from
him, on pc-i'ct:ivin;;; tl;-ta d-.1zige.i‘,sioppetl short.
