The legacy he has left has been put to a useful purpose, and will, perhaps, still do us a good pair of glasses many of its familiar spots can be distingnished. One can look down upon Munson's and Hall's hills, and it can be seen at a glance that this protects them both, and that guns h the enemy in the positions now held by us. The view from this hill is very much finer than from Munson's, but on account of the distance, somewhat less distinct and the outline less sharply de
