This mani was recently ap prehended by two loyalists, who found hitm skulking in the woods, where lie had been wandering since the 8th of D~ec. When brought before the mnagista ates, he did not -attetmplt to justitfy his conduct in the rebel lion, but pleaded for a favorable considera tion of his case, on the ground that elie had saved the house of Mr. Sheriff' Jarvis fro the destruction to wh Iich it had1 been dlevotedl by AleKenzie. le gave a~s he reasoni lor this humane ititerference.that Mrs. Jarvis was reported to be in ill health, and that thle Sherill'had formerly rendered him personal fatvors.

Geo. g AN ANECDoTE OF WAn.-Thefollo-ving i thrilling account of the execution of Col. d llayne. of South Carolina, during the war of the American revolution,was related by - the Rev. Mr. 1Beckwith, in a discourse on ,c the evils of war. delivered a few weeks ago iv Among the distinguished men who fell vic Ol tims in the war of the American revolution 1. were Col. Isaac Ilayne, of South Carolina; a man who by his amiability of character 1C and high sentiments of honor and upright S ness, had secured the good will and all'ec id tion of all who knew him. lie had a wife ,. and six children, the eldest a boy thirteen years of age. His wife, to whom he was tenderly attached, fell a victim to disease; an event hastened not improbably by the . inconveniences and snil'erings incident to a rs state of war in which the whole army had - largely participated. Col Hayne himself in was taken prisoner by the English forces, a. n in a short time was executed on the tc gallows, under circustances calculated to to excite the deepest commisserattion. A i. great number of persone, both English and I- Americans, interceded for his life; and the le ladies of Charleston signed a petition in his behalf; his motherless children were on is their bending knees humble suitors for their a beloved fa tler, but all in vain. -r "During the imprisonment of the father, o his eldest son was permitted to stay with K. hint in the prison. Beholding his only sur of viving parent, for whom he felt the deepest is alTetion, loaded with irons, and condemn v- ed to die, he was overwhelmned with con at sternation and sorrow. The wretched fath .y er endeavoured to console him. by remind ing him that the un'ltvailing grief of his son tended only so increase his own misery ; that he cane in this world merely to pre pare for a better; that lie himself was pre. =pared to die, and could even rejoice that his troubles were so near ended. "To-mor ,t. row." Nal he "I Cpt nor Gr immn"-tr. - y- von will accompany me to the place of any bh execution, and when I am dead, take my I- body and bury it by the side of your poor ta mother." The youth fell upon his father's u, neck crping, "Oi ! my fither, may father, "h I die with you!" Col. Ilayne as he was is loaded with irons, could not return the em Ie brace of hIis son ; and merely said in reply, of "Live, nmy son ; live to honor God lay t ill good life, live to take care of your brothera es and little sisters." se "The tnexi morninig," proceeeds the nar ... rater of these distressing events, Colone s. Havne was conducted to the place of exe as ction.t H is son acompanyed him.
