I'oit Ivl ward w:is silnalo on the eas tern margin of llu liivrr, within a few aids of the water, and surrout.dcd I'Y a plain of eon?idetahle extent, which was cleared of wood and cultiva ted. On the road leading to the north, and near the foot of the hill about one third of a mile from the fort, stood a hou-e oft upied hy Mrs. MNoil, a widow lady and an acquaintance of Mis?
M'v.'n a Mith whom she was staying as a visitor at tho lime, the American army was in that ncighhorhood. The Mile of the lull was oocrcd with a iiTowth of hushes, and on its tcp, n (jiiarter of a, m'tie froat the house, flood a tarpe pine Dee, near t!ie leol of w hich c;'.:lied ut a perpetual -j ringe.f w nler. A piard ot'n.e. hundred men had !'een loll at the tot!, .vi.e. a p.clul urtder l.icnMtant Van V etcher, was stationed in the woods en the hii! a iiti!o :.- .nl
1'ie pice tie'-. I '. uly one momine; this picket guard was attacked hy a party of Indian'", rushing throuph the woods from dillerer.t point? at the same moment, and ici.ding the air with hideous yells. Licu;enant Van Vechlea and five others were killed and scalped, and four w re wounded, ivitmicl Standi.-'', one el the g aard, whose post was rear the pine lri-c, discharged his imiskrt at ihe lir-t Indian la; saw, and ran down the hill towards tho fort; and ho had no ooncr reachid ti.e plaits titan three Indians, who had pursued hint to cut otl his retreat, darted out ofthe hushes, tired aiul womuled him in the ll.ot. One of thctn sprang upon him, threw hint to the gtound, pinioned his-arms, and then pushed him violently fovwaid up Ihe hid. lie naturally made as notch ha.-lc as he could, and ia a shori tinieca'tte to the spring, where sciial Indians w to r.ssemlded. Ii ic Sutuh-h was e ft to him-eh.nt a utile iii-! an;e from the spring and the pine Ht e cpectirg eer moment lo -h.iie tlie !.t!o ,.(' ,is comrades whose -ea! s vvee e.tr.s-'lctioulv displayed. A f"W n:ii. ales ei ! had elapsed, when he saw ,a s;::aU pony el 'Indians ascending the I. ill, and w :th them airs. "d'Ncil and Miss MX'rt a on foot. He keew !lo-n ho'.li. having often hecn at ilrs. PNeii's house. The parly had already j'MTitd the other Indians, when lie p iceived much agitation among them, hijt, wordimHl toP tit gestures, til! at length they tig.acud in a faiious ijiiarrd, and heal one. another wi;!t heir muskets. In the mi. 1st t-f this fray, oi.o of th.e i hiefs apparently in a I'.aioxyMn f rage, shot Miss M('rea in j ;hc brea'l. 'tte instantly ft 11 and cx-j piled, licr hair was l,;tg ttnd flowing. Tlie same chief grasped it in his hand, sci.vd hi knife. ainJ took etVlhc scalp i : t-'u't a te.anncr as iavhtde neatly '.!.( whole ef le.o hait ; then 5pnngi;"g ficm the aro'.ii ,1. ho tosed it in the face of a yeung warrior, wha sh.od ueai vim w atching the operation, hrarvaidu d it ia the air and uttered a vi 11 of savage txulfaiion. When this was done the quarrel ceased; and as tho fort had already heen alarmed, the Indian hur ried awny as quickl as po.-sihle to (ei. oral Pra?icr's encampment en t!to toad to I t il Anne, taking with them Mr.-.. M'NYil and Samuel Staudi.-h. "i'ho ho-iies v( the slain wcie found y a pattv, that went in pursuit and wete carried at toss (no river. They had lu en stripped of theirclothing.atid the body of lis M'Oea was wounded in nine place?, either by a scalping knife or a tomahaw k. A messenger v- a dis patched to eonvev the Mihciing intelligence to In r brother, who ai rived soon. ;d':c wards, took thatgo of his siter remains, atnl had thin intt rred on lite ea-t side of the. river about thice miles below- tho foil. The body of Lieuten ant Van Velohen was buried at the same time and on tho same spot. Iliskiry has preserved no facts by which we can at this day ascertain the reason, why Mi-s ?P('roa should remain as she did in so exposed and un protected a situation. She had been reminded of her danger by tho people at the fort. Tradition relates, however, and with seeming truth, that through some medium of communication she hail promised her lover, probably by his advice, to remain in this place until the approach of the Prilih troops should afford her an opportunity to join him. in company with her hotcss and friend. It is said that, w hen they saw the Indians coining to tho hou-e, they were at first fiightettcd and attempted toeseape; but.n the Indians m.ttle signs of a pacific intention, and one of them held up n letter intimating that it w.n to be. opened, their fears woie calmed ami the letter was read. It was from Jones, and contained a request that they would put themselves under the charge, ofthe Indians, whom he had sent for the purpose, and who would ruard them in salt ty to I lie. Ilrilishcamp. Unfortunately two separate parties of Indian, or at least two
chiefs acting independently of each ether, hail united in this enterprise, combining with it an attack of the picket guard. It is incredible thai Jones should have known this part of the arrangement, or ho would have foreseen tho. danger it threatened. Whoa the prire wa in their hands, the two chiefs quarrelled about the mode of dividing t! o reward they wort! to receive; and according to the Indian rule of settling disputes in the ra-e of captives, one of them in a wild lit of passion killed the victim and secured the se-tlp. Nor is it the least shocking feature of the tausaction, that the savage scemeel not aware ofthe nature of his mission. Uninformed as to the motive of his emplov; r for obtaining ".he person of the lady, or not comprehending il. he regarded her in the light of a pt isoner. and suppo.d the scalp vvon.ld be an acceptable tsophy. Let it be imagined what w to the fVoliiigs ofthe anxious lover, w a;'iiig with joyful anticipation tho. nriiv..' of his intended bride, w hen this a j paling proof of her death was presented to hint. The innocent had sutrered Im the hand of cruelty and h lonc.e, which he had unconcioudy armed : ies mo-i fondly cherished hopes wore blasted, and a sting was planted in his -onl, which time and Jorgelfulncss could ncv or eladieale. Ilis spirt I wv eath( t! and his heart broken, lie lived but. a :i-w years, a prey of his sad recollections, and sank into the grave under tho burden of his grief. Tho remenhrance cf this mclar.rhtdv tale is stil! chcri-hed with a lively :npathy hy tho people who dwell tu-ai Iho scene of its principal incidents. Tho inhabitants of tin village of Fort lidward have lately removed the remains of Miss M'Croa from their oscuro resting-place, and d posited them in the public burial-ground. The ccrcmonv was solemn and impressive. A pro
cession of young men and maidens fol lowed the relics, and wept in silence when tho earth w as pgai closed i them, thus exhibiting an ho;trdd. proof of sensibility and f respect for the. dead. Tin: little fountain si ill pours out its cleat waters near tho brow of tiie hill and the venerable pine is vet standing in its ancient majesty, broken at the lop and shorn ol it branches hy the winds and storms of half a ceuiuiy. hut levered as marking tho spot where youth and innocence were sacrificed in the tragical death of Jane ?d't 'n. r.r.Asriii-kMY su-xau.y rt io-:;n. Oa Iho fourth of August, 17'., between eleven and twelve o'clock in iho afternoon, ;i violent storm of thunder and lightning arose in the district f Montpelicr. In a held about a mile from the town, a body of nine hundred French soldiers lay encamped. At a small distance from the camp. live, ol the soldiers were assisting a husbandman in collecting the produce, of the earth far hire. When the. storm eaaio oil, the whole party took refuge under i tree, when the live soldiers began to blaspheme (iod, for interrupting them tit their labor; and one of them in the madness of his presumption, took up his firohxk, which he happened to have with him. atnl pointing it to the skies, said ho would lire a bullet at hint who h ol sent the storm! Seized with horror at the.hla-phomous declaration, ( lit husbandman made all haste, he could to quit the company; but scarcely had he got to the distance of ten paces from the tree, when a flash cf lightning struck four of the soldiers dead, and wounded the fifth in such a manner that his recovery was despaired of. "Remember Lot's wife," was the admonition of our Lord. If you would escape, dy from the company of the wicked and profane, for "verriiy there is a (.iod tliat jtitlgelh in the eanh."

Din ing my late tour through some of the m ighhoring States, facts haveconie to light, w hich give new strength to the opinion, that a mighly effort is w ot king against us. Within the last year, it is believed, more (lerman Catholics have entered this country, than have arrived in any twe years before.
