[TO . BE CIONT:II7I7OD.] GEORGE VIiASHINtATON.-' The fellbwing burlesuge biography of Washington, by JOHN linotottx, one of the beat humorists of th e day, is a hit at the milt• taken made by do many writers. h would .be.didicult to . crowd more humor, into so small a space: George Washington *as,one Of the - most distingunthed movers in the American Rev°. ,He was born of poor but bobcat parents,. at Genoa, in the year' 1492. His inothar was,ealle:l the mother of Washington.' Ho married, early it, life, a single widow lady, Mrs. Martha Curtis, whom Prescott describes as the cussidest prettiest woman south of 'fifinMantii'Dix - oii`s line. Young Washing= ton nomonetteed business as a county survey or, and was present in-that character in a sham fight under General Padlock, wheie so many guns"were tired that - the - whele body - of militia were stunned by the explosion, and, sat down' to supper unable to hear a word that was said. This supper was afterward alluded to as Braddock's defeaf', and the 'simile, "dead , as Braddocic," and subsequent'. ly 'vulgarized "deaf as a haddock," -had its rise in that circumstance.. Washington com manded several troops during the Revolution ary i'Var, and distinguished himself by cross. ing the,Delaware river on ice of very inade quate thickness, to visit a family of Hessians of his acquaintance. Ho was passionately, (mid of green pens and string beans ; and his favorite motto was : "In time of peas prepare for war." • ' Washington!s most intimate was a French gentlemen,.named Marcus Dee, who from his constant habit of risibility, WWI •nickiiamed - "laugy yet." His greatest vic tory' was achieved- at Germantown, where coming upon the British• in the night, lie completely surrounded them with a wall of cotton bales, from which he opened a de structive amid terrific tire, which soon caused the enemy tci.capitulutc. The cotton bales being .performed with musket balls, were much increased in weight and consequently iu value, and the expression playfully used, "What is the price of cotton?' was lunch itv 'Vogue after the battle. During.the action Washington might have been seen driving up and down the lines,. exposeil in, a small COnedid wagon, drawn by a bobtail gray horse. .His celebrated dispatch, "Veal, Vidi, Veil," or I came and saw in a Concord Wagon, has reference to' this circumstance. • - IYashington has been called the "rather of his Country ," (an unapt title, more-prop• erly belonging to the Imo Mr. McCloskey,: parent of the celebrated i.ugilist the child has grown;. however, to that extent its own father niiinld not ;mow it..

Although, for the time in which he lived, a very distinguished man, the ignorance of Washington is something perfectly incredi• ble. Ile never travelled ona steamboat:l."' never saw at, railroad, or locomotive ev,ino ; was perfectlylignorant of the prinCipre of the magnetic ; novec had a daguerreo type, Colt's pistol, Sharp's rifle, or used a !nutlet' match. Ile ate his meals with an iron fork, never used postage stamps on his letters, and,. : know nothing of the application of chloroform to alleviate suffering, or the use of gas for illumination. Such a man as this could hardly be elected • President of the United • States in these times, although, it must be confessed,'we occasionally have a candidate who-proves not much, better informed about mutters in general. IVashington died from exposure on the aunt nit of Mount Vernon, in the year 1786; leaving behind him a name that will endure forever if posterity persist in calling their children,after him to the seine extent that has been fueltionable. • Ile is mentioned in history as having.been "first in peace, first in war, and first ih, the hearts of his countrymen;" in other words hu•was No. 1 in everything, and it was equal ly his interest and his pleasure to 'look out for that number, and he took precious care to do so. by.Gilhert Stuart., of-this .grfat.. soldier ,and statesman may be seen, very • badiy.engiaved; in the "Ilistori of the Uni• fed States," Inn as it 'was taken ,when the General was in the, act of chewing tobacco, the left cheek is distended out of proportion, and the likeness rendered very. unsatisatetory. Upon the whole, Gen. George Washington . was a very excellent man ; •though 'mathmil-, Mr with "Scott's Infantry Tactical he Nyasa tolerable °nicer, though he married a widow he_ was a_ fund husband. and_ though .ho•-did- - not know the 13eecher family, ho was a sin cere Christian, , A monument has been commenced in the city of Washington to his meinery,.which is • ,to he five hundred feet in height; and itahould be the wish of every true•ltearted American that his virtues and his service's may not be forgottedhethre it is'coMpleted; in which case their remetubranco.will bo endured forever.
