DEATH OF A-nKVOLOTIONARV HEROINE'
Wt'hav read the following from H'he lionet
daU Democrat, published in Wyn County,
VenBylvania, with the most live; interest nd
yrt it to our readers entire t
. In Fcbraory Inst we chronicled the death
ot Mr. Michael Grennell of Clinton Township
at the advanced ago 'of one hundred and .six
years. To-day we bare to record the decease
of Mrs. Sarah Benjamin, in Mount Fleasaot
Township, on the 20th instant, at the still
greater longevity of one hundred and fourteen
years, five months, and three days.
Her maiden name was Sarah Mathews, and
she was born in Uoshen, Orange, County, N.
Y.,on the 17th of November 1743. She pas
thrice married. Her first husband was Mr.
William Reed. He served in the Revolution
ary struggle, and died of a wound received in
Virgiuia. Her second husband was Mr.
Aaron Osborne of Goshen, N. Y. He also
was in the army tT Vbe Revolution, but sur
vived the war. Her last husband wa's Mr.
John Beniamin with whom she settled in
Mount Pleosat in 1812. He died four-years
afterward. Khe had five children, the
youngest of whom is 70 years old. She has
left four generations of descendents. From
her youth until past' forty years of nfee she
Was in the midst of the rough and .stirring
scenes of border warfare or of tha llevolu
tionarv struggle. Her temperament was
such that she could not bo an idle spectator
of events. She entered deeply in all these
vicissitudes. Up to the latest period of her
life she distinctly recollected the family of M r.
.Uroadhead, whoso sons, in 1753, boldly resis
ted a party of two hundred Indiana making a
fort of their boubp. She was in the viciuity
of Minisik when Brant an Indian chief led a
tiarty of Indians and Tories through that set
tlement, scalping the inhabitants and burning
the houses. . After the second marriage, she
accompaning her husband in the army. Du
ring marches she made herself useful in pre
paring food, and when in quarters engnged
in sewing for the officers and men. .She was
however ready for any service which circum
stances seemed to require. When the army
was engaged in embarking some heavy ord
Dance at Kiogsbridgo on the Hudson, osten
sibly to attack New York, then in the hands
of the enemy it was necessary ti do it in the
night, and to place sentries around, lest they
should be observes or iaseu ny suipnao.
Her husband having been placed as a sentinel
eho took his station, with overcoat and gun,
that bo might help to load the heavy artillery.
Boon Washington came rouud to examiuo the
outposts, and detecting something unusual
iu her appearance, Dtked, "Who placed you
Acre?" She promptly repljt: J. iu her charac
teristic way, "Them who hud a right, to Sir."
He, apparently pleased with her independent
und patriotic spirit, passed. She accompan
ied the army with her buibaud to the boutb,
ami was present at tho siege of Yprktowo
and the surrender of Cornwullis. l'unngthe
buttle she was busy in carrying water to the
thirsty and relieving the wuiits or the suffer.
ua. When passing where the bullets of the
enemy were flying, she met Washington, who
said ' Young woman are you "uol ufruid of
tho bullets t" She pleasantly answered,
The bullets will never cheat the gallows."
She possessed extraordinary energy, even iu
her extreme ago aud would relate tho events
or her early days with all the vivacity of
youth. Up almost to the pcriod,.cf her death
she exercised herseir in cardinr; aud spinning.
The Oneness and uniformity of her yarn was
n wonder and admiration. She visited her
friends on foot, muking long walks, ami when
the used a carriage disdained to bo helped tb
enter it. Two or three years ago she remark
ed that she had nover been sick but once.
She tLuu sent for a physician, who lea her
some medicines. Alter ho had gone, she
(lot likilig the smell or it, "threw the dirty
stuff iuto the Tire and then bad to pay lor it."
The simplicity of her life was peculiar. Tor
some time past sho has been regarded as a
sort of curiosity on account or her :reHL ugo
and vivid recollectiou of events long past.
Many visitors called upon her, and were al
ways received with cheeifullness, and went
away surprised aud delighted with her (low of
geuiul humor combined with rare physical ac
tivity. She was iudeed a liuk connecting the
present with ages past and gone. 1'or a
jieriod she was ready and cheerfully waiting
to depart, and her end was calm and peaceful.
A Queer Cask. Mr George Krwin is a
man of litigious disposition, and never so hap
py as when getting up the preliminaries of a
suit at law. luthe Court of Quarter Sessions
'the other day, before Judge Ludlow, he ap
peared to prosecute a charge made by him
ugaiost a Mr. John. 11. 1'urdy of having sold
policies on a lottery drawn in Maryland.
The indictment also, charged the defendant,
"with divers other evil disposed psrsous, as
yet unknown, with unlawfully Biid wickedly
conspiring, combiuing, f onfederating and
agreeing together uuluwiully, und. wickedly
contriving and iuteuding to acquire unjust
lucre to themselves, to bi-1,1 anu expose ior saio
within the city and county of l'hiladelphia,
und to cause and procure to be sole, and ex
posed for sale therein certuin lottery tickets
r policies, to be drawn iu said State of Mary
land, to. tb.evil. and pernicious example of
ull other persona In like case ollending.
The trial or this case used up a whole day,
and two. lawyer's.. Krwin in his evidence,
ulleg'cj that he bad spent much money in lot
tery policies, and that the defendant had ad
mitted to bun. that ha (I'urdy) was the agent
in this city for certain parties in Baltimore
who were ioterusted in the sale of lottery po.
licies. The witness, upon being pressed, was
unable to give any evidence more positive
aud decided than this to sustain his charge.
The defence produced a number of witness,
who testified that the defendant was engaged
iu a regular and respectable business, .(tele
graphing ; that be bore an excellent charac
ter i and moreover, that they would not be
Have Krwin upon bia oath.
The counsel for the defendant made a strong
tneech, contending that the prosecution was
a black-mailing operation throughout, and
that the sola object of the prosecution was to
extort money.
The jury without leaving the box, rendered
a verdict of "Not guilty the prosecutor to
pay the costs." . ..
A few more such verdicts will probably
cure Mr. Krwin of bis ability, if not of his
taste for litigation. People of similar dis
positions will please notice.
Shad. According to the report of Mr.
Terley, of the New Brunswick fisheries, the
shad makes its appeurauce in Savauuah and
Charleston in January, New York in the
latter part of March, Boston at the latter
part of April, and in the bay of l'undy about
the middle of May. The first fish which ar
rive, ascend the river St. John to spawu, and
then proceed up the bay of Fondy to their fa
. vorite grounds, to fatten upon shrimp aud
khad worm." Of the sea shad, none are so
fine as those taken at the bead of the buy of
Fuody. The shad is but rarely seeu on the
A tlaulic coast of Nova Scotia. It is found
in the gulf of St. Lawrence, but not north of
the Miramichi. After tbesbad get very fat
in the bay of Fundy they leave in October or
November, aad they have been seen in large
schools southeast ol cape Sable, steering to
the southward, probably to enter again upon
or southern coast or Savannah, from whence
tboy teach the mouth of the Delaware about
the first of March reaching here from the 10th
to the 17th of the month.

A Ram Tihci of Gossir.--The Washing
ton correspondent of the New York Express
relates the particulars of a love affair, which
bat created no little excitement in tie diplo
matic and fashionable circles of the national
Capitol. It appears that an. attmch of tha
Spanish Embassy bag long been an ardent
aamirer oi the. only daughter of a retired ban
ker of Washington, bat the prudent father,
not relishing the idea, of such an alliance ior
bis daughter, forebade the . Spanish cavalier
his house. The cavalier wrote the banker a
Challenge, but could find no one to deliver it :
"On Tuesday night last the banker was di
ning with Mr. Slidell, who occupies the next
bouse ,tO bis own on Lafayette square
While partaking of Mr. Slidell's hospitality,
bis servant came in and informed him tbat two
persons were hanging about bis bouse in a sus
picions manuer. The banker, whom we Call
Mr. C, requested bis friend, Seuator, Bright,
who was of the parly, to accompany him, and
proceeded with tbat gentleman to his own
residence. As be entered the hall, he met
1) is daughter in the hall, and proceeded to
the picture gallery, which was lighted only by
the ball lamp which shone through the door
way, he found a man snugly ensconced under
the piunoforte. .Soizing bim bythecoHor, he
uraggcu iijtu lorm bis bluing place, And, dis
covered bim to be no less a personage than
the Spanish attache. He dircovered that tho
aforesaid Spaniard was aimed with a six-barreled
jovolver, which be took from bim, and
then kicked bim incontinently into the street
As be opened the door for this purpose, bo
discovered another person oflhe sumu "tribo"
lurking about the entrance."
Another letter in the same paper says
that the young lady, afraid that her lover
would shoot her futher, took advantage of
her fathqrs absence at the dinner above men
tioned, and requested him by note to come
and see her, for the purpose of explanation. A
challenge has since been sent and refused by
the father. The Secretary now hesitates, it
is said, What to do whether to shoot or
what. The diplomatic corps are said to sym.

Two Cuu.bitEN Froze! to Death in an
Oi'E.v Boat on Lake in.nebaoo. A most
lamentable occurrence transpired here last
Thursday evening. Two children of Martin
Kalor, living in the r ourth Ward, near toe
lake shore, perished' from exposure to tho
weather in a small boat on Lake Winnebago.
The circumstances, as we are informed, are
asotlows. The children one a girl of thir
teen, and tho otter a boy or ten years appli
ed late in the afternoon of Thursday last to
Mr. Evans for the loan of bia boat, for the
purpose of fishing in the bay a short distance
from Mr. Evan's bouse. Upon beiug refused
t'ley procured a small scow boat that was
lying oa the beach near by, in which they
paddled out into the bay. There was a strong
breeze blowing at the time, which soon in
creased tea gale, and blew the scow far cut
iuto the lake. Mr. Evans says that when his
utteution was first called to the dam erous
position of the children, they had drifted a
mile or more from the shore, and belore he
could provide any means to rescue them, the
boat had disappeared from sight. The wind
blew furiously and the night was bitter cold.
Evan's bay ia a mile and a half from the inha
bited portion of the city, and nothing of this
dreadful affair was known to our citizens un
til noon. the. next day, when measures were
promptly tcken to recover the children if pos
sible. A large sail-boat was manned and
started off. It returned on Sunday without
any tidings of the boat or children. The gen
eral opinion was that the boat had swamped,
aud that tho children were drowned. Tho
search was however, continued, and on Sun
day afternoon the boat was discovered on the
Calumet shoro of the lake, nearly opposite
this place. It was half filled with water, aud
in it were the dead bodies of two children.
They had frozen to death. The boy had ta
ken off his coat and given it to 1) is sister to
shield her from the cold, for the garment was
found upon her body. This affecting incident
alone reveals without further detuil the hor
rible situation of the poor children before
death put an end to their sufferings, The
bodies were brought over to this city aud
buried on Mouday. It is stated that at the
time tho scow drifted out. of the bey, it was
seen by several persons, who watched it until
it disappeared ; and who, either from stupi
dity or indifference, neglected to give the
alurm, or to thko any steps towurd rescuing
tho children, until it was too late. We have
not been able to ascertain, positively, whether
this statement is true or not, and we there
fore refruin from giving publicity to ony of
the rumors which have been current in regard
to this port or the occurrence. Oshkoth Wis.
Courier, April. 28.
Til' .New M ii.itia Law .One of the acts
of the lust Legislature was to pass a milita
lull which we fiud put into the following con
densed form by . the Heading Democrat :
"Its provisions require every able bodied
man, between the ages or eighteen aud forty
five years, with some specified exceptions, to
bo subject to military duty. He is to pro
vide himself with the necessary .equipments
under the peoulty of a Gne of one dollar for
non-nerformauce, if a resident of tho rural
districts and ono dollar and fifty cents if
living in a city the fund thus raised to be
appropriated to the support of the "eulisted
and equipped" milita men. The milita en
rolments entirely dispensed with, and ull
volunteer companies parading, are allowed
for every persou on parade each day, uot ex
ceeding six times during the veer, one dollar
and fifty ceuta per diem out of the fund. In
addition to this, the cummauding officer of a
regiment may order put the companies com
posing it for an encampment parade, not ex
ceeqing six nays, once during eucu year.
1 Dose provisions are intended as an incuce
nieni 10 youeg men wno desire to gum a
knowledge of military duty, but cannot afford
to lose the time which gratuitous parades
neces8aiily require. 1 he new law will suit
tho citizen soldiers very well, and go far to
increase the military spirit throughout the
State."
All the lock lenders on the Canal be
tween Pittsburg und Johustowu have, been
discharged and watchman appointed in their
stead. It will be the duty of the latter to
pass over their respective divisions at least
once a day and. see that tbe locks are kept iu
good order, and that the "leveU" are uot al
lowed to ran "dry" or "run over." Each
watchman will have about four or five miles
under bis charge. This change virtually
makes the boatmen their own lock tenders.
