As mentioned in my former letters, the 'encampment. continued here near seven months,the movements and conditions of it, remained very near the same as nothing of _much conseqUence occurecl during the time, to disturb or change the daily monotony of it. There were, occasionally, during this season, some alarms of the approach of the enemy, which threw the officers and soldiers into active preparations, to be prepared to receive them, and in some few Instances, II i: .part of them went ou, to meet them, but they all turned out to without foundation. They also had the effect of producing touch fear stud consternation among the people.— Such was the state of both contending, pow ers, at this junction of time, that neither of them telt much disposition to engage in an attack upon alit% and they remained quiet in their respectide position. Atter passing through the winter, less fuel and Clothing were necessary, and through the efforts of Congress, and the persevering enterprise of many of the officers of the army, the commissary department was supplied with provisions and other military stores, so that the suffering of the soldiers was, in some measure mitigated.— The people, as already 'noticed, suffered severe losses, on account of their hay, grain, :fodder, horses, cattle, swine, poultry, and in fact everything they had, being taken for the_ use of the army. The property thus taken from them by officers, acting under the au thority of superior officers of the army, they were paid for, either by certificates upon the Continental Congress, or in the continental money of 'that day. The latter soon died in the hands of many of them, and ended in a total loss. During the time of this campaign, a per son, I think, from the city of Philadelphia, was found in the camp, acting in the capaci ty of a 'spy for the enemy, and he was very summarily tried and executed by the au thority of a military tribunaL The place were the gallows, onl which he hanged, stood, was shown to me about tweuty-five years ago, by an old map whom I overlook on the road near the place. He wasa stran ger to me. His residectce, be said, was at PittsgrOve, in the atate,of New Jersey; that he was ,a private, in Petter's brigade, and had been encamped there, and had witnessed the execution ; he also mentioned the flame of the individual who. had been . the Vie4lll. I had previously heard of a person of that name being executed as a spy during the time, and the place had been pointed out to me, which was the identical one mentioned by the old man I met with, and I could not but admire his retentive memory, that after a lapse of forty-seven years, he could so clearly point out the place of its location. This cirelmstance, together with other things that he related to me at the time, fully satisfied me that he had been one Of the number encamped here, and one that. had, suffered severely at the time, and was en titled to a penison, that he was thee endeav ouring to obtain. To satisfy my mind more fully on this head, I made an, inquiry of my aunt, now the only one of the family livinz that witnessed that time, and she f y confirmed the account giving me by t e old man. ;She informed me that she yell re members the day of the execu n, and of seeing the gallows with a port' of the rope upon it, which remained th e for a conside rable time after the dep ture of the army, and that site was ofte at the place while it stood there. It w erected on the land of of David Stepheps; a little north of the Gulf Road, near de corner of a piece of land known by e name of the fifty acres, being near th rner of the line between Chester and Yontgomery counties. The land on Di6h it stood now belongs to William Henry. ave purposely omitted giving the came of the individual who was effected, as there are many of the same name living in various parts of the country, within' the circle of my acquaintance, but I cannot say whether any I I of them are, connected with him or not. I have, therefore, avoided givin,g it to the public, but have furnished the printers with , it. While the army remained there, a duel took place between a Lieutenant Green, from New England, and an officer from the South, wriose name and rank, I have now forgotten. What it was that led to the rash , and foolish act, I have never understood.— I The place of meeting was about a quarter of a mile north-east of where thegallows stood, I on a land then belonging to John Moore.— In the engagement Green was wounded and died eooaafter, and was buried at theFriends' burial ground, at the Valley Meeting house, with the honors of war (so called.) My aunt, the venerable Elizabeth Reese, the per son just noticed, now in the 82d year of her age, says she well remembers seeing the procession pass through their orchard, a little north of the house, with muffled drums, and moving slowly to the tune of the dead march. A blanket had been procured in the neighborhood, in which his remains were arrapt, and thus consigned to the grave. • I have heard my grandmother say that after his death, request sans made for a._ sheet to bury him in, but such was their etript con dition, that she could not comply with their request. They then called upon a woman named Mary Pugh from whom they obtained the blanket. Twenty-eight years after, in digging a grade ache place his bones were disenterred. The blanket in which they had been interred, when discovered, appeared in a state of preservation, but in coming to the air it fell to ashes. I saw the bones soon after they were discovered, and well remem ber the soundness of his teeth; the blanket I aid not see, but I was informed of the Cilr- Poctro. 415torp. lyrout the lucks County. Late By Heitry R'oodssax cumstances, and whose bones they were, by Isaac Walker, a man of unblemished charac-- ter, and repntaticin; who had charge . o ,t h e graveyard at the time, and who resided near the place at the time of the interment, and who was always renowned for correct obser vations and retentive eajimory. I shall: now make sate addition to the for mer accounts, the information having' been recently obtained, and which would more properly belong to my .eighth , and eleventh letters. In my eightlf I mentioned never having met with any account of General Wheedon in the accounts of the Revolution ary war. or American Biography. A few days since I found in • the Pineville library a work entitled, '° Washington and the Gen erals of the Revolution,'na which there is a short notice of him—the Whole of which is contained in about twenty lines daedecimo pa: 1 - . . and taken from the notes of an Eng lis 4 4 , , veller, made about the commence- Joe, tof the Revolution; who speaks of hav ingiodged at his tavern. The account giv en concerning him there, I do not think fully correct. He calls him George Wheedon.— His name, I always understood, was Joseph Wheedon, and. the cause of his resigning his office and roaming home, is differently stated from what I have always heard, it from correct inforritation. In my eleventh letter, some mention was made of officers being quartered at the houses of Samuel Jones and Samuel Richard, but could give no positive information concern. , iug them. In :he library at Pineville, I also met with a history of the War of Indepen dence, in which is an engraved map of the encampment at Valley Forge. The outlines of the encampment, the - fortifications and breastworks, the courses of the river and stream, and many other things are correctly laid down ; but the plan of the arrangement of the different positrons, and the.quarters of the general offieyrs, are not at all as I have heard them represented by persons who had every means in their power to obtain!correct information at the time, and the most of them from actual knowledge. In that map, Generals- Woodford, Scott, Clever, Sernea and Patterson, are represented as stationed on the point line. I never heard of the three last being quartered, or the , brigades under their command stationed any where iu the neighborhood, bin Still they may have been. The two hitt I now remember, upon seeing their position laid down upon the map, to have heard that these were the officers that were quartered at the houses of Samuel Jones and Samuel Richards, Woodward at the latter, and ScOtt at the former place ; which is no* occupied as a hotel, known by the name of KengaUs tavern, on the State Road, leading from New Hope, through Doylestown, Norristown and West Chester to the Maryland lhae ; about six miles from Ndrristown, and between two and three miles from Valley Forge. I now have a perfect recollection of the two last mentioned officers being quartered at these places ; the relation haviug been given me by a daugh ter of the said Samuel Richards, the late Elizabeth Walker, - who died about sixteen months ago, in the S4th year of her age. 1~11azC~l(12t1). TOE SIOUX INDIAN'S AND HIAIIIAOE'S. M. N. Adams, writing from Lac-oue-varle. Mine r sota, on the 4th ult., gives the Central Watchman the following facts relative to the Dakota or-Sioux Indians.. The Sioux : nation is estimated at about 25 or 30,000 souls. The territory now occupied by these, heathen is vast, and much of it very fertile. It lies chiefly within 4.3 and 46 degrees of north latitude, and stretches from the Saint Peter's on the east, to, the Missouri on the, West. The great mass Of this nation, areas vet in a savage state. The, influence of civilization is 'the-disguise of film, whiskey, and tobac co. Their main dependence for a as yet, is by hunting. There are some bands on the. Mississippi and down near the mouth of tile Saint Peter's that re cieve annuities ; and, for whom the United State... Government provides farmers. These fare comparatively well; but the - great mass are , obliged to depend upon game for stalisis tance. To -hunt, is a part of their religion, Ind they have a god who presides over the hunting department. The native women plant small fields of corn. They sometimes trig up their fields with their hoes, plant th - Corn. hoe it, gather it and store it away, w' - outthe least assistance on the part of th en.

Buying of wives is com on among this people. When a wo men- s thus bought, she is at the mercy of t purchaser, and she is even liable at ny tune, to be thrown away, or put aside, that her husband may suit himself better in the choice of another. Hence you• see the marriage institution as it exists here, is but little else than a mere custom of convenience for those who control it. The power by which it regulated, is confined to the one party alone, while the other is forced to 'confess herself a widow, or her children orphans al though their fathers yet live. Such a thing as parental authority is scarcely known here. There seems to, be no restraint upon the chil dren and yOuth. They are left to grow, up rude, wild and unculiitraten, as the game they pursue,. THE REAL LSE OP GOVERNIEEST. Government is a great, good and a seritial to human happiness ; but it does its good chiefly by a negative influence, by repressing injustice and crime, by securing property from invasion, and thus removing obstruc tions to the free exercise of human power, It confers little positive benefit. Its office is, not.to confer happiness, but to give men opportunity to work . coill happiness for them- Selves.

All our great interests are left, to ourselves • and governments, when they have interfere with them, have obstructed, much more than ad vanced them. For example, they have taken religion into their keeping only to disfigure it. So, education, in their hands, has gen erally become a propagatbr of several maxims, and an upholder of antiquated errors. In like manner they ,have paralysed trade by their nursing care, and multiplied,overty by expedients for its relief. GoVernment has almost alWays been a barrier against which intellect has had to struggle ; and Society. has made its chief progress by the minds of private individuals. who have out , srripped their rulers, wild gradually sha cm med ' them into truth and dom.—[Ch in .n g• GC7'Modest Request.--The Albony Eve ning Journal asks "only the ptiviledge of working in the Whig tanks without being stoned.' r7An Uninterrupted telegraphic line one thousand one hundred! miles in' length, is now in successful operation between Louis. %rifle and New Orleans'. •• , /IXAME7I,2IILANCENt Oft at the hour when evening thicrana Its gathering shades o'er vele and hill.

NO: 34 1 , 4:11:.tiPIIK.1a0;1 . ;liy4: 1 : 4 :11 There is an old yew tree which stands by, the wall in a dark quiet corner of the churth; yard. • . And a child was et play beneath its wide-- spreading branches, one fine day in the .eatly sPrng. He had his lap full of flowers. wluch the field* and limes„had supplied hiat with, and he was humming s tune to himself as he wove them into garlands. And a little girl at play =tong the tomb. stones crept near to listen ; but the boy. WU so intent upon his garland, that he did not hear the gentle frotsteps, as they trod say over the fresh green grass. When his work was finished, and all the flowers that were in his lap were soon woven together in one long wreath, he started up to measure its length upon the ground, and then he saw the Little girl, as she stood with her.eyes fixed upon him. He did not move or speak, but thought to himself that she looked very ,beautiful as she stood there with her flafen ringlets hang-, ing down upon her neck. -The little girl was so startled by his sudden movement, that she let fall all the flowers she had collected in her apron, and ran away as fast as she contd. But the boy was older and taller than she, and' soon caught her, and coaxed her to come back and play with him, and help him to make more garlands; and from that time they saw each other nearly every day, and became great friends. Twenty rears passed away. Again, he was seated 'seneath the old yew tree in-tlie churchyard. It was summer now bright, beautiful summer, with the birds singing, and the flowers covering the ground, and scenting the air with their perfume. But he was not alone now, nor did the lit tle girl steal near on tipto . e, fearful of being heard. She was seated by his side, and his arm was toned her, and she looked up into his face, and smiled as she whispered : "The first evening of our lives we were ever together was passed here : we will spend the first evening of our wedded life in the same quiet, happy place." And he drew her closer to him as she ipoke. The summer is gone; and the autifita . n; and twenty more summers and autumns have passed away since that evening, in -the old churchyard. A young man, on a bright moonlight night, comes reeling through the little white gate, and stumbling over the graves. He .shouts and he sings, and is presently followed - by others like unto himself, or worse. So, they all laugh at the dark solemn head of the yew. tree, and throw stones up at the place where the MOOD has silvered the boughs. The same boughs are again silvered by the moon, and they, droop over his mother's . grave. There is a little stone which bears this inscription : But the silence of the churchyard is, now broken bv a voice—not of the youthnor a voice of hughter and ribaldry. • "Mv son l—doss thou see thissrave? ana• dost thou read the record in anguish, whereof may come repentance?" "Of ‘3,-hat should I repent ?" answers the son ; "and why should 'my! young ambition for fame relax in its strength "because my mother was old and weak ? ‘•10 this indeed our coal" anya tholirther... bending in agony over the gmve 'of his be loved. `•I can well believe I am not," exclaimed the youth. “It is well you have brought me here to say so. - courses must be here—mine yon. So the son left grave. Again a few r er, with a roar) covered with so cies in the churci carries a swathe the graves, as were at some rm., the icicles fall With a crash and jingle, like. a solemn m• ery of the echo of the un seemly •I, of one who is now coming to his fi. res.t.• T ere are two graves near the old yew tr ••, and the grass has overgrown them.

The bearers come; with a heavy pace they move along; the' coffin- heaveth up and down, as they step over the intervening graves. Grief and old age had seized upon the. father, and worn out his life ; and premature" decay soon seized upon the son, and gnawed away his vain ambition and his useless strength, till he prayed to be borne, not the way yonder that was most opposite to his father and mother, but even the same way: they had gone—the way which leads to the Old Churchyard Tree.—Dickens' Household Words. Colonel Chesney in his work just publish ed, on the surveys of the rivers Euphrates and Tigris; gives the following interesting description of the city of Jerusalem and its environs : "When approached by the ordinary pil-. grim route, Jerusalemilhas something of a, desolate appearance, presenting at the:tcip of: a stone valley .a range Of turreted limestone walls, above which appear a few of the most =- elevated dwellings, arid some of 'the cupolaan. and minarets, whilstilike most other casters, cities, the interior isibut a succession of dull streets and.dead waits, sloping eastward, in• terspersed with gaudy churches, and heavy- , looking convents ; but when viewed from. the heights on the eastern side the effect is par ticularly striking, the whole city being seen from thence in complete detail. The Mount of Olives on Jebel-elLTur, commands to the southward a view towards Bethlehem and some of the hill country . bf Judea, dud east ward is seen part of the v i lle'y of Santa-Saba, with the Dead Sea glittering beyoad at the foot of the mountain ofArabia Petrea. But westward the scenery iS stilt more remarka ble. In this direction 15.1ount Olivet descends rapidly into the deep iavine of Kedron on the slope near the bottom of which is the garden of Gethsemane:', and a little lower the tomb of the Virgin Mazy, also those of Jehosaphat, Absalom; and Zachariah. Oa the' slope beyond this deep and narrow val ley stands the. city itself, which in addition to many public buildings, contains 3000 good' houses, distributed in` foursquare quarters, which cover as many hills, he whole, being enclosed Iv lofty walls flanked by square towers. The city has the shape of an irregu lar lozenge, whose western side skirts the• valley of Gihon, while ita southern side runs along that of Benhinnorn',3 the northern side is near the hill of Titus ; and .lastly the east._ ern side rutis almost north and south al - Ong the valley of Jehosaphat, having in the centre the gate of St. Stephen ; just south ward of the latter. rising above thc-,walls,, is Mount Motia,whose buildings are the fore ground and principal part of the panorama. The quadrangular terrace on which they stand occupies ibuut one-fifth of the area of the city, beirig about 500 -yards froin north to, south, with an average width of nearly 3CO, yards fram -east 'to west. iihnost in the centre are the graceful minarets of the Mosque Of St. Omar, which, with its arcades, courts, and innermost enclosure. ahriost, rivals the great and costly teinple ofSolornon - , which it has replaced. , a7 . 4 , N0 Woman is Edurated," says Bur• nap, who is iiot equal to the successful man" *gement of a &milt:" • pp)* poitri.
