are coming in, and tell the objects of the expedition. It was to capture the 3d Georgia regiment, and to blow up the locks on the Dismal Swamp. They did neither, but lost the Adjutant of the brigade, fifteen officers severely wounded, many men killed, and a number taken prisoners. We took 1,500 pounds of coarse cannon powder, with which they intended to blow up the locks on the canal. The enemy's artillery was very badly served, and if this is the best they can do, we have but little to fear from them. Their forces were led by Gen. Reno, who had with him, amongst others, Col. Hawkins, of the New York Fire Zonaves, and Col. Fairchild. Georgia may will be proud in sending such soldiers as compose the 3d Georgia regiment to the field. In this command they have been called the "Fighting 3d;" but I did not believe it was in the nerves of man to stand such a storm of shot and shell as was rained upon them for five hours. Let all our troops go and do likewise. "Swamp Fox,"

time we ever saw it was in one of Barke's speeches in the House of Commons, on a bill to settle the Government of Canada. This was delivered about the year 1790. Fox, in commenting upon the bill, had said that the Canadians were entitled to more liberty, in the article of self-government, than it gave them. That they were in fare and more unworthy to be entrusted with that power. He then launched into a tirade against the French revolution, which was then in full progress, and denounced Fox and his friends for their opinions on that subject. It was on this occasion that he and Fox came to an open rupture, and the speech is memorable on that account, aFox came to an open rupture, and the speech is memorable on that account, as well as for its extreme vehemence and acrimony. It is many years since we read it, and we do not know that we have stated the circumstances connected with it with accuracy. But it was somewhat in that way. We are confident, however, that he called the English, and their descendants, "Anglo-Saxons," and that we first saw the ter
