I could not answer, but assured him that there were one hundred and 'fifty pounds of young Russia in grs.Wheefer's house, and under her charge, but Wile. ther it was for sale Leould not say. Off he otarted, with a view to make the purchase. He knoCked 'at the door,:Mrs. Wheeler asked him to walk in and be seat ed. She ;the elder made, her appear ance. "I want •to get your Russia," said•the hatter. . M Wheeler asked h'•*t ti __rs. teeter asket. tim to walkin'and be seated'. She, of course, supposed he had come after her daughter Roseia. l "What do you waut-of Rusia ?"'aSlied the old, lady. "To make hats," Vas:the reply. To trim bat's, I suppose you =stir 'responded Mrs. IWheeler. , "No; for the'outside hats," , replk the hatter. 1 , "Well, I-don't know much about hits, I will call my Idau,ghter," said -the :Old -lady. Passing intot.he other room, where Ras ilia the younger ,was at work, she inforrned her that a man wanted her to make hats. "Oh he means sister Mary,probaby. —I suppose he (wants some ladies, hats," was Rushia's reply, as she paesedin to the parlor. I suppose you wish to see my sister Mary; sheds our Milliner," said the young er Rushia. "I wish to see who ever owns the pie perty. Sister Mary was sent for, and soon made her appearance., As soon as be was itr troduced, the latter informed her that )Ie wished to buy Russia. "Bay Rushia I" exclaimed_ Mary, ip surprise. "Halt understand you." "You name is Miss Wheeler I believe ?i" said the latter, who was' annoyad at the dfficulty he' met with in Icing under stood. "It.,is sir." "Ah - ' eth th, . very well. is the Russia in the house?" "I believe there is," said ;%lary, surpried at the familiar manner in which he spoke of her mother and sister, both of wilder were ptesent.

"My name is Jerusha, and so is my daughter's," said Mrs. Wheeler, by that, I suppose, is .what he meant by tell ing you about old and young Issia."

Deacon :Joseph Jones, of Litchfield, Conn., was a fine ,specimen of the old style sturdy farmer, honest, conscientious and hospitable to a fault, and scrub one leading-vanity,. which 'was his ability to' raise the finmt.stock in the whole - of New England. In' his younger days '=the dea con had command of a company of State troops, ,which }:ad Zone service during the last war with. Great Britain, anittho' he, had , failed, in the teahhical applieition of the term, ",to smell gunrpOwder," 'yet hp had received the infusion - of a warlike ' spirit, and,earned the title of ""captain," wnich, on the principle of bonee a cap tame always a captain," stuck to him, nerd Dangled ,with the, more peaceful cogno men of the deacon. • . . . The warlike spirit The •deaeort Vohld never tonquer,.even tlmMin he had been frequently rebuked by the good dontinie for showing so much of the Aural nidli;. tante in, his daily bearing ;' and.'he could find no greater delight, .when he could obtain_an audieuee, than in recallint , the days of his captaincy and telling bloodless tales of "when L was out in 'l3 and '14." Among the deacon's fine stock was a bull,a Splendid anigial;which for strength, size, and beauty, excited the envy and admiration of the, whole country. So much was. the deacon's ball yrize'd, that very soon its owner began to think 'that he possessed the roost wonderful animal that-ever existed, and to, boast aecording. ly. F.rorri.morningto night nothing could. .be heard in the ,neighborhood ,9f Litoh field but praises of the ciee:don's bull, and estimations of - its value. At last ttrsuch a pitch did this estimation reach, tint t c he deacon, not content with bearing the palm from every tattle raiser in the country, sought, like Alexander, fresh worlds, to conquer, and offered his bull to the epm petition or the whole country. To do this properly, deacon Joseph issued a., handbill, setting forth in glowing,lines the qualities 'of his boll, its size, weight, and color, leading.cff withra.ohalleego,tp any one possessing an animal of _lilto_aize and age, to vanquish the deacon's in a • fair fight for one hundred dollars:. e it was that the old ,warlike spirit; peeped forth, arid the.deadon, instead. of offering to niatdh his ball'for any. ot.those quail tiei-that 'go toward making good beef, proffered the •challenge for its fighting quality. • = • These handbills were scattered far mad wideby.ihe aid of a peripatetic peddler, and;one .of them fonod its, tray to the hands of a' noted breeder of stock in, the western ) partof tha State,Who determined on'accepting the lihallenge ort . •behalf of iv fine young animal of his own; and mak ing an attempt to fob the. deacon'a one hundred dollars: Accordingly he started with his bull for the deacon's, but by some delays the road be did net reach his destination until late on Saturday af ternoon: -' Upon his stating his errand he was warmly welcOmed by theAeacon and honest praise bestowed upon the splendid animal' he had brought with him.. It was too late that for_the . trial, and the bull was accordingly driven into the rich pastures to recruit after the journey, and his.owner made free to the deadon's home. The next day being the Sabbath, the family all set forth to church; the deacon surrendering his place in the family pew to the stranger, and "staying,..at home un per the plea of not feeling; well. After they were all gone, , the deacon, to aid in dismissing the thought of the two bulls, and of the coming fight Oil the morrow, got down the 'family bible nucl read a chapter; but still the bulls would mix themselves with the tests, and wander away with his thoughts.' .At last the deacon could stand it no longer, and put ting on his hat; out he went to take one look at the fierce monster that was on the morrow to carry the laurels from his bull, and the hundred dollars from him, °Heave him the happy victor. There he stood in the centre of the field, coal black, and shaking his fierce. Shaggy head in defiance. The deacon • gazed in 'admiration and. the thought crept into his brain that to-morrow Was a long time to'wait and that there was nobody to see and t;to one to tell tales, he might as well tiie the bulls just one little turn at each - other that he might be the better able to judge, •and if the contest waxed too ward he could.drive off his own animal without trouble. No sooner thought ~ thau done, and the deacon stealthily let down the bars that led into the field and proCceded to drive his bull, but the strange bull in an instant saw the euterance open, and without delay, rushed through and in less time than it takes to tell it, tackled the deacon's bull. The -fight was terrible,•and the deaCen delighted. For a while he forgot his Sabbath breakina ° in the keet'enjoyment of the fight, and the belief that his bull Would be the victor, but at length the , stranger began to have the beSt of it, and the deacon ' fearing the defeat of his fa. vorite, took a hand in the fight himself. He tore a rail from the fence and rushed at the black bull, 'punchine- him in the rear, and strivingto drivee b bim back, to his pasture. The attack instead of at taining its - object only. increased the ani mal's rage, until with one fierce lunge he laid his antagonist en the around, pierced bite through the chest with one thrust of his sharp horns, and laid him dead in 'an instant. • No:sooner had he , finished his work in front - than, like a good soldier, he made for the enemy in:the rear; and the .dea cen.inadci for the opening in the fence With the bellowing monster. close .at his ',heels,- J. • . _ Away.ilhey went,; deacon and bull, straight for the house, :the first •puffing and blowing ender• his fearful speed, the ' last pawing and bellowing in a tiianti2r to strike terror into firmer hearts _than that of the deacon. .It was a terrible _race;' but the, deacon won it . by a few . yards,- just slamming, the, door of the house in the face of the bull, and rushing to the kitchen ,for ; safety. In. a . moment he heard with terror the. blow of the mon ster's head upon the door; ~a second thump and down it_went, admitting him to the. hall: The:door - of the parlor stood open, and upon the wall apposite was.% large mirror, the pride of the deacon's wife and daugh ter, and the choice piece of their• ho . use - - hold goods.. The bnll did•not waste time, but seeing 'his image. in . "the glass, made eue rush, kattering the '-glass• in minite particles, and shaking the,house with the crash. : . 'By this time the deacon .began'to Cover Ms 'wind 'and his presence - of mind and think of a loaded gun. hanging over the mantlepiece in the• kitchen.' Ren dered desperate lie clutched the' weapon and rushed to,tho : door of the parlor.—: The ball spied him instantly, and made a rusli-his l lait—for almost running the muzzle:of the gun into his head, the dea. Con fired, and a dead bull blocked up the hall, dChiginf, , ,:tbn wjth.blood'jitet as the hthily,:pressUeed thenlischipa . ,at the ac6r on lb* returilfican-churCh.' The consternation of 411 may"be Toed and the deacon had nothing fprit but to make a clean breast _and confess i , his, Sabbath breaking, pay the strabger for his, bull, band, over the hundretil,dol lars, an make good resolutions abonti uH fighttng for the future. Death ok Baron.De ." • Immediately, on receiving orders of de. parture,, we waited,,or the. good ; old Pe gqb to ,take Our leave,and .to. extir* our deep regret at , parting "Itis with- great regret,My dear sir, that L part . with yen," he said,. "becausit feel &presentiment, that we part to meet no more:" We told him we hoped bet ter things. • ,"Oh no." ho replied ; "it is impossithe. War is a kind of game that has its flied rules, whereby when we are well acquaint. ed with them, we can_ tell pretty Well how the trial will_ go. .To.inorioW4 it seems, that the die is to bo cast ;. and in my judgment, without the least clianee on our side. The militia I supposN Will as usual, play the.back-game; that is, et out of the battle as fast astheir legs, will carry them. But that, you know, wo'n't do for me. lam an old soldier and Gan not run; and I believe I have some brave fellows who will stand by me till the last. So when you hear of our battle you Will probably hear that your old friend pe Kalb is at rest." I never was more affected in niy'life; and I perceived tears in the eyes of ; Gen. Marion. De Kalb saw them, too ;..Lind taking us by the hand, he said, ;with a firm tone and animated look, "No', no, gentlemen, no emotions for Me,' but those of 'congratulation. I am I hiip py. To die is the irreversible decrea of Him who made us. Then what)o' y to be able to meet death without dismayl Thank Gad, this is my case. The hap piness of man is my wish; that happiness I deem inconsistent with slavery.: And to avert so great an evil from an .itinoenni people, I will gladly meet the Brliiih morrow at any odds whatever." As he Spoke this a fire flashed frurn his 'eyes, which seemed to me to demon strate the divinity of virtue, and the:im mortality of the told. We left him with feelings which I shall never forget, while memory retains her seat in my brain..': It vms on the morning of August 15th, 1780, that we, left the army in a g4od position, near' Rugeley's .Mills, tWelve miles from :Camden, 'where the 'enemy lay. At ten that night, orders were given to march and surprise the enemy,' Who, at the same time commenced 'a march 4 to surprise the Americans. To their Mutual astonishment the advance of the•two nr mies met at two o'clock, and began firing at each other. It was soon dis Continued by both parties, who appeared willing! to' leave the matter to be decided .by. `day light. A council - of war was Called,lin which Do Kalb advised that the army Should fall back to Rugeley's Mills alad wait to be attached. Gen. Gates not only rejected this excellent counsel, but threw out an insinuation that it originated iio fear. Upon this the brave old man ;gaped I from his horse, and paced himself at the I head of his command on foot, saying with considerable sir,'perhaPs a few hours will show who are the brave."' As day _light increased the frightened militia began,to discover :the woods red dened all, over 'with the'scarlet nniforths of the British army, 'which soon,''inih rattling drums and - thundering •Catindp. came rushing on to the charge; and they seareelivetiited to give them a distant Eye before they broke and fled in every dirdc tion. - gen. Gates clapped , spurs to his horse, as he said, - "to bring the rascals back." Hoivever ' he die. not bring - bi.- self back, nor did he - stop till ho reached' Charlotte, eighty miles from the field ef, battle. Two-thirds •of the army;havirgi thus shamefully taken themselVes off,-the brave old De Kalb and his handful Ofl continentals were left'to try the fortunes' of the day. More determined valor was, never displayed; for though otitnumbei4d more than tyro to one, they sustained thei attack of the whole British force fcir more than an hour.- Glorying in rthc bravery of his continentals, De , Kalb towered before them like a pillar.uf fire: But, alas! - what can valor do airing equal valor aided by such fearful odds While bending forward to , animate bis troops,the veteran- received eleven Wounds. Fainting from the loss of blood . , he fell ti? the ground, while Britons and Americans were killed over him as they strove' to' destroy' or defend. In the midst:• - o'f' Clashing bayonets, his only surviving aid, Col. De Bnrysson, stretched his arms over the fallen hero, and called : out,4 "Save the Baron Do Kalb." The-Brits ish officers then interposed, and prevented his - immediate destruction. Kalb died •he had l - De Kai as be .ived, tbn.urv: conquered friend of liberty.
