The following summary of a deeply interesting mu tation, relative to the expedition of Lewis and Clark to the Rocky Mountains, we copy from the last num ber of the Boston Traveller: ' "The expedition of Lewis and Clark to the Rocky I 'Mountains is a work well known throughout the UM. lied States. These two individuals were employed by UM.' the General Government to explore the North West Territory from the Mississippi across the Rooky Mountains, down the Columbia river to the Paeifie-- A correspondent of the North Arkansas, a paper pub lished in Batesville, Ark., gives an interesting narra tion of the fate of Captain George Merriweather Lew is, one of the persons employed in the expedition, whose fate has hitherto been shrouded in mystery.— The writer of the narration is at present a teacher in the Cherokee nation, and assures the editor of the Arkansas, that the facts set forth are substantially true; that he became acquainted with Mrs Grinder—a person who is referred to in the narration—while sta tioned for several months in her neighborhood. The writer goes on to say that Lewis and Clark, ac. companied by from severity to a hundred others. com menced their expedition about the year 1803 or 1804, and completed it in about three years. They were men of great enterprise, bravery, and usefulness. He then calls attention to Capt. Lewis, and the question is asked where is bel—and he replies, his mortal re mains and deposited in the South-west corner of liksury county, Tennessee, near Grinder's old Stand, on the Natchez trace, where Lawrence, Maury and Nickmatt counties corner together. When I visited the grave, says the writer, in 1838, I could scarcely distinguish it from the common ground, it tieing grown over with shrubbery : of oilier ent kinds, and no stone, no palings, no monument, to tell whose grave it was. Grinder's old Stand had long been consumed to ashes, and there was no house with in several miles. The old field was grown up, bushes and briars, and it was lately a dreary, solitary looking place. f here is something very mysterious connected with the death ofCapt. Lewis, which in all probability will never be developed until "the dead, small sad great, shall stand before God." He gives the following par ticulars, as he received them from Mrs Grinder, the lady at whose house he termimed his mortal career.— She said that Mr Lewis was on his way to the city of Washington. accompanied by Mr Pyrna and a servant belonging to a Major Noeley. One evening, a little before sun down, Mr Lewis called at her house and asked for lodgings. Mr Grin der not being at home, she hesitated to take him in. Mr Lewis informed her that two other men would .be along presently, who also wished to spend the night at her house. and as they were all civil men, be did i lnot think there would be any impropriety in her giv ing them accommodation for the night. Accordingly 'she consented to let them stay. Mr Lewis dismoun ted, fastened his horse, took a seat by the side of the house, and appeared quite sociable. In a few min. lutes, Mr Pyrna and the servant rode up, and seeing Mr Lewis, they also dismounted and put up their hor ses. About dark two or three other men rode up and 'called for lodging. Mr Lewis immediately drew a brace of pistols, stepped towards them and challeng ed them to fight a duel. They not liking this saluta tion, rode on to the next house, five miles. This a larmed Mrs Grinder. Supper, however, was ready in a few minutes. Mr Lewis ate but liule. lie would stop eating, and sit as if in a deep study, and several times exclaimed, "If they do prove any thing on me they will have to do it by letter." Supper being over, and Mrs Gtindet seeing that Mr Lewis was mentally deranged, requested Mr Pyr- Ina to get his pistol *front him. Mr I' replied that "he has no ammunition, and if he does any mischief it i will be to himself, and not to you or any body else."-- In a short timid all retired to bed; the travellers in one room, as Mrs G thought, and she and her children in another. Two or three hours before day, Mrs G was alarmed by the report of a pistol, and quickly after two other reports in the room where the travellers were. At the report of the third, she heard some one fill and exclaim "Oh Lord! Congress relieve me!" In a few minutes she heard some person at the door room where she lay. She inquired "Who is there?" Mr Lewis spoke, and said, "dear madam, be so good as to give me a little water." Being afraid to open the door, she did not give him any. Presently she heard him fall, and soon after, looking through a crack in the wall, she saw him scrambling across the road on his hand and knees. After daylight, Mr Pyraa and the servant made their appearance, and it appeared they had not slept in the house, but in the stable. Mr 1' had on the clothes Mr L wore when they came to Mrs Grinder's, the evening before, and Mr L.'s gold watch in his pocket. Mrs G asked him what he was doing with Mr L's clothes en; Mr P replied "he gave them to use." Mr P and the servant then searched for X- L found him and brought him to' the house, and though he barren a full suit of clothe*, they were old and tat tered; but not the sane he had or. the evening before; and though Mr 1' had said that Lewis had no !mum nition, Mrs G found several balls, and a considerable quantity of powder scattered over the floor of the room acquired by Lee is; also, a canister with several pounds it it. When Mr L. was brought to the house be opened his shirt bosom end said to Mrs G., "Dear Madam, look at my , wounds." She asked what made him do so? lid replied, "If I had not done it, somebody else would." He frequently asked for water, which Was given to him. He was asked if he would have a doc tor sent for; he answered no. A messenger, however, went for one, but did nut get hint. Ho attempted to cut his throat, but was prevented. Some of the neigh bors were called in. He frequently cried out, - 0 bow hard it is to die, I ate so strong." He however soon expired. Major Neely was sent for, and he and Mr P. buried him, and took possession of his efecta. Mrs G. beard that Pyina went to Lewis's mother, and that she accused him of murdering her son; that he finally cut his own throat, will thus put an end to his existence. I make, says the water, no comment on ,the a'sove: it is all wrapped up in mystery. I have heard that Capt (Jerk, the worthy colleague of Capt Lewis, and others who were with him in their tour, were higitly honored and handsomely rewarded by the Government, while Lewis was neglected, and that this bad an ef fect to produce alienation of mind. If this be true, are there not yet some living who are acquainted a ith the fact? The Ditiurbances growing out of the anti-rea excitement, in the vicinity of Albany N Y., still con tinues, and affrays of serious character are of frequent occurrence. The, Schoharrie Cabinet, states that on Friday, week. Gen Jacob Livingston, of Cherry Val ley, while on his way home from his mills in Middle burgh, and when near Gridley's gate, was intercepted by five or six men, disguised in Indian dresses, who seized his horses and ordered him to stop. He de. dined, and requested them to clear the road and al low him to pass. They refused, and he ordered his :driver to put whip to his horses and proceed, at the : same time drawing a pistol and firing at one of the men, the top of whose head was grazed by the ball. Mr L was so hotly pursued as to be obliged to take refuge in the house of Judge Mattlce, neat the gate, whence he despatched a messenger to the Sheriff of the county, who in due time made his appearance with a possee, and succeeded in apprehending two of the "Indians." one of whom is safely lodged in jai)„ and the other being badly injured, was left in keepi ng arbliddlitiburgh, The disguised persons are said to be residents of Bern, Albany county.
