And watches still, good night! One's .llulhrr. Around the idea of one's mother the mind of man clings with fond affection.— It is the fust dear thought stamped upon our infant hearts, when yet soft and capa ble ot receiving most profound impressions, and all the after feelings are more or less light in comparison. Our passions and our wilfulness may lead tis lar from the object of* our filial love ; we may become wild, headstrong and angrv at her counsels or opposition ; but when death lias stilled her monitory, uni nothing hut calm memory remains to recapitulate !,cr Urines and good deeds, affection, like a flower beaten to the ground by a rude storm, taises up her head and smiles amidst her tear*. — Around that idea, as we have said, the mind clings with f uid affection, and even when the earlier period of our loss, forces memory to be silent, takes the place of re membrance, and twines the image of our departed parent with a garland of graces, and beauties, at <1 virtues, which we doulu not that she possessed. JH iscf lUurous. The Night Attack oil Fort Erie, The brief obituary notices of the late Gen. Gaines, tint have appeared in the newspapers, all speak of his defence of Fort Erie as one of ihe most gallant acts in hi* long career. The following spirit ed desciiptton ot the achievement is taken from Mr. Billiman's clever iittle volume, 4 A gallop among American Scenery,' pub lished some five or six years ago: 4 llerr,' said the major, 'we had thrown up our line?, making the defence as strong a? practicable. The British had also erect ed formidable works about half a mile in front (:lie lores! intervening.) composed of a large stone battery on their left and two Strong redoubts, from which they kept op an incessant discharge of shot and shell? for several successive days, which was re turned by ns with equal vigor. At length a shell from their batteries blew up one of our small magazir.es. but with trilling in jury to the rest of our defences, tnev were elevated with their success, and Gen. Gaines received secret information that tliev intended to carry tlie work by storm on ttie f dlow'ing night. That night, said the major, I shall not soon forget. It set in intensely dark and cloudy, extremely favorable to the design of the enemy.— Every thing was put in the fullest state of preparations to receive thetn. The men enthusiastically awaiting the attack, were ordered to lie on their arms. Extended along the lines, and manning the f.>rl and bastion, m:r littfe armv, in perfect silence, awaited their coming. The forest had been cleared about three hundred yards in front of our works f-.e -vortd tlt at were, as you see, the woods.— As the night wore on, we listened with earnestness to every sound. A little af ter midnight we heard <>n the dry leaves the stealthy sound of footsteps. Wo lis tened—they came nearer. A short, sharp ! challenge : 'Who goes there ?' issued from the farther redoubt. Tin footsteps ceased I s if irresolute to advance or recede, nrd all whs still. Another quick challenge— a rattle of the musket, as it (ell into the hoi i low of the hand, followed the reply, 'Pic quet guard forced in by the enemy s ad vance.' 'Back guard ! back to your posts instantly, or we will fire upon you.' Bml lite stern voice of our commanding officer. The footsteps of the stragglers slowly re j ceded, and entire stillness again obtained. I it was a* profound as the darkness, not j even the bum of an insect roe upon the t ear. Wo laid our li -ads upon the lain I ' r\e*v hirries— Vol.—]\o. £2. pails, end listened with all our faculties.— Perhaps hall an hour elapsed, when we im agined we heard the. dead, heavy sound of a large body of men—tramp—tramp— —tramp—advancing through the pitrhv darkness. A few moments passed—a brisk scattering fire, and the picque(6 came in in beautiful order, under the brave subaltern in command. The measured ttead of dis ciplined troops became apparent, l.vorv sense was stretched to the utmost in expec tancy —every eye endeavored to fathom lite darkness m front, when, from I ow son\ battery, that toward the river, glared a volley of mtikrtry, and in an other in stant the whole line of works, bastion, re doubt and rampart, streamed forth one liv ing sheet of flame—-Two cighli ens. where we stand, were filled to the muzzle with grape, canister and bags of musket bullets —imagine their havoc. The on vvitti loud shouts and undaunted bravery. Bv the continued glare of our discharges we could see dense, dark masses of men moving in columns to three separate points of attack upon our wi rk?. Our artillery and musketry poured on them as they ad vanced a continual stream of fire, rolling and glancing from angles,bastions redoubts. Repulsed—they were re-formed by their officers, end brought again to the charge, to be again repulsed. At such times, hours fly like minutes. A life appears concen trated ton moment. We had been engaged ntrhnps three—when I I card ir- that bas tion of the fort, a hundred fret from rr.e above the uproar, a quick, furious struggle as if of men engaged in fierce, deadly fight, n clashing of bayonets, and sharp pistol shots, mixed with heavy blows, and short quick breathing, such as you may havo heard men make in violent exertions—in cutting wood with axe?, or other severe manual labor. The conflict, though fierce was short—the assailants w ere repelled.— Those that gained a footing were bayonet ted. or thrown back over the parapet. In a few momen'9 1 heard again the same fierce struggle, and again followed the like result and stillness—if stillness could be said to exist under continual roar of mus ketry and artillery. A third time it rose sudden and desperate ; it ceased, and pres ently a clear loud voice rose high above the battle from the bastion : 'Stop firing in front therrrvou are firi ig on your friends. An instant cessation followed. We were deceived. Iri another moment the voice of nn cfiicer, with startling energy, replied 'Aye, aye, we'll stop ; give it to them, men 'give it to them!' —and the firing re r.ewrd, v ns continued with redoubled fttrv. The head of the centre columns, compos ed of eight hundred picked men, led bv Lieut. Col.Drummond in person.after thrfe several assaults, had gained possession of the bastion, and by that ruse endeavored to cause a cessation of the fire—a r-sult that might have been fatal to us had not the de ception been kn scon discerned. But the prize was of hut little value, as the bastion was commanded hv the interior of the work? and the men, under caver of the walls of an adjoining bsrrack, poured into the gorge that led from i'. a continual storm of mus ketry. The firing continued with unaba ted fury. Ihe enemy, repulsed with great loss in ovary eftack, was unsuccessful on every point save that bastion, the pos sesion of which they still retained—when f heard a groaning roll and shake of tlie cart. 1 !, and instantly the bastion, bodies of won. timber, guns, earth and stones were blown up in the air like z volcano, ma king every thing in the glare as clear as at noonday. A descending timber dash ed one of my artillerymen to pieces with in a foot of my shoulder. Profound dark ness and silence followed. Naught but the groans of the Wounded and dying wero heard. As if by mutual consent the firing ceased, and the enemy withdrew, repulsed on every Side, save from the parapet which they purchased for their grave. A large quantity of fixed ammunition lincl been pla ced in the lower part, and a stray wad fall ing upon it, had blown them nil up togeth er. Mv duty required that 1 should im mediately repair the bastion, and most hor rible wes the sight bodies burnt and mu tilated, come of thctn still pulsating with life, among them Lieut. Col. Drummond, tlib leader of tlie attack. There he lay in the morning light, stark at d stiff, extended or, the rampart,a ball having passed ihtough hi.-, breast. History mourns that his cour age assumed the character of ferocity.— Ills war cry of'No quarter to the damn ed \ankees,' hi? own death warrant, was long remembered against his countrymen. The enemy did nt resume iho attack, hut retiring to their cr.PTticlied camp strength ened their work? and prepared to make their approach by regular advances. ii Nt.Tor.rrTV. — There is nothing like no. toiiety m this world.
