He knew very well he was hatod by the lower classes of the people iu the neighborhood, and by the Scrvilles, 011 account of the zeal with which he had distinguished himself iu the pursuit of robbers, contranhandisls, and people oi that description. He hesitated, then, a short lime, whether he should engage in a duel with such an enemy, or should cull in the arm of the law to his assistance; but the desire of adventure, natural to so young a man, roso within him, and lie was ashamed, whon opposed only to a single adversary, to have the appearance of calling for help.

Christoval,- with his knife, has nothing to fcarfrom the long sabre. The young officer may say his last ave, if he has not forgotten it?the impisus freemason!

The cloak .now seemed to slip from Christoval's left aim, and whilst lie endeavored to gather it up again, he exposed himself, in some degree; to his adversary, who, thinking the right moment had arrived, rushed forward, and aimed a powerful blow at his adversary's head, but sank at the same moment to the ground, with a faint cty. The apparent. olippling oft* of the cloak was only a feint of Christoval's, by which he might mislead hta mlvcroaiy into some impi udent movement. Receiving the blow on his cloak, he sprang forward at the same moment, with the quickness of Mghlning, on his adversary, like the tiger on his prey, and thrust the knife from below, under the ribs, into his left side; and such was the force of the blow, together with that of the spring, that he tore the unhappy man's body open, completely across, so that the trunk only hung to the under body by the bones of the spine, while the numerous layers of his thick woollen cloak had defended Christoval from every injury. ' God be merciful to his poor soul!" said he, wjth an agitation which he with difficulty suppressed, while the persons around, keeping silence for a moment, gnzeu on tno terrific wound.

Washington's lifeguard.? The passage of the Schuylkill.?Tho life-guard was a major's command, Qibbs, of Ithodo Island,' a gallant ofliccr, and celebrated martinet, major Collax, a fino young man from New Jersey, and much esteemed in the army, captains Grymos and Nicholas, of Virginia, brave and valued ofliccrs, lieutenant ami ensign, with one hundred and eighty picked men, rank and tile. The uniform blue, with white faciugs, white under-clothcs, and black gaiters. 'i he horse-guard was detailed from va-| rioutf corps during the contest. In the is earliest campaigns, from Bavlor's regiment, which was called lady Washington's dragoons?uniform white, with blue facings* &c. The life-guard always attached to the hcad-quurlers, was admired as well for its superior appearance as for its high state of discipline, it being considered, m the olden time,-as a matter of . distinction to serve in the guard of the commander-in-chief. The life-guard wab borrowed by favorite officers for several important expeditions. In the oflair of Barren Hill, May, ;'78, the life-guard formed a part of tliei t troops under tho marquis de Lafuyctic, ! * *- - ' 1 * .. nvr ivbuvurvu ui iiiu wounu fiu received I ill the preceding campaign, in *78, mode his debut in arms as u general officer.? I The position of Barren Hill becoming extremely hazardous, on account ot two ! heavy columns of the enemy thut were I marching to intercept the communication of the marquis with the main army at jVa'lcy Forge, the young general determined, by a gullunt dash between the ad[ vancing columns, to reach the ford 011 the ! Schuylkill, and thus secure his retreat to the main army. Here let our narration pause, while we pay a well-merited tribute to the niemoiy and services of Alien1 M'Lanc, to whose untiring vigilance in watching the stealthy approach of the enemy's columns towards Barren Hill, and promptness in attacking them on their , route, tho marquis was mainly indebted 1 for success in the celebrated retreat that shed such lustre on his first command. In Allen M'L'iue we have the recollection a partisan who, with genius to conceive, possessed a courage even to chivalry to execute, the most daring enterprise s; who ever ranked with the foremost in esteem of the chief, and was considered by the whole aiiny as one of the most intre I pit! anil distinguished uiliccrs of the war I of the revolution. When the retiring Americans reached the ford of the Schuylkill, they hesitated in attempting the passage. Lafayette sprang from his horse rushed into the water waist deep, calling on his comrades to follow. Animated by the example of their youthful general, the soldiers entered the river, the taller men sustaining the shorter, and after a severe strugO 3 gle gained the southern or friendly shore, having suffered but inconsiderable loss. Meanwhile, the enemy were in close pursuit, and the commander-in-chief, fearing for the detachment, which consisted of his choicest troops, including the lifeguard, drugged his artillery to the pocky heights thai commanded the road, and opened upon the enemy's ad vance, cheek ing them so far as to enable the marquis the better to secure bis retreat; and thenwas one feature in the martial spectacle of the passage of the Schuylkill of rare and imposing interest: it was the admired form of Washington; at times obscured, ?n,l then beheld amid the smoke of the cannonaui: ^ attended by his generals I and StalF, .uroua.

Morgan was in waiting, at the outpost, to receive the detachment on their return, having listened, with much anxiety, to the heavy fire of the pursuing enemy. Charmed with the success of the enterprise, in the return of the troops almost , unharmed, and in the prisoners taken, Morgun wrung the favorite captain by the hand, nairl hi? <>nmnli.nnni<j ?

Instruction.?Mr. Crundy presented to the S011ato, a preamble and resolutions adopted by tho Gene, ral Assembly of Tennessee; one of which resolutions instructed tho Senator, and requested the Representatives from that Stato, "to vote against any law which may propose to enforce the Sub Treasury System of Finance." The rifdit of snob inntmn tions Mr. Grundy did unhesitatingly acknowledge; and declared his intention to comply with the wish expressed by his constituents. Jamc%Trottor, of tho democratic party, has bcon elocted by tho Legislature of Mississippi, to fill the vacancy in tho Senate of the United States, occasioned by the resignation of Mr. Black. It is currently said that certain post notes of Mr. Biddlo's bank, issued "for tho reliefoftlie merchants," ire at this inomont undor protest, and that tho bank s accordingly subject to tho paymont of an interest >f twelve jicr cent, on them. An humiliating situition this, for tho Great Regulator of tho Curcncy! A resolution was introduced into tho Senate of Pennsylvania, which had for its object, tho instituion of prayers before tho commoncomcnt of busiicss every morning. It was rejectod by a voto of !2 to 11. "Each of tho gontlomon who spoke against the csolution, disclaimed the idea of opposition to roli. jion, but arguod against tho fitness of tho time and dace for prayors, and did not believe tho resolution :alculatod to promote tho causo of religion?that the ixamplo of prayers in public bodies was bad, when ho niombors neglected to attend and pay proper re. ipcct to tho ceromonioR, which Mr. l'oltz and Mr. ^oarson statod to be tho case in Congress and some >thor public bodies." It is related of tlio wondorful Crocket that his nomory was very romarkable. In proof of which, >?c who opposed him lor a scat in Congress, gives the ollowing anecdote. "When wo began our electioneering campaign," aid Col. A., "not being able to speak very well xtcmpore, or rather not at all, I wrote a spoech with [roat care and committed it to memory. I delivered his at three scvoral meetings, and was a good deal [ratified in believing that it was very well received, had always spoken first, but at tho fourth meeting vhich was a very numerous one, Crockett proposed hat ho tako the head.

He therefore sent tlv mo| ncy; but out of his own pocket, not choosing to risk that of tho Slate upon an uncertainty. Meantime, ( Parker had hern arrested for his swindling practices, " and tho tifly dollars is now 011 its way back. 1 _____ r Education'.?"Knowledge is power."
