City, Ilis fame rests rather upon his ''' for coolJtlrfS cliaractcr s Slid hopeful- - in the darkest hours, his exalted patriotism mid his and courage- ous bearing in the Cold and in coun- cils. Nevertheless there were campaigns and battles that showed tho highest capacity, and suggest that with ample resources nnd a chance to force the fighting, Washington might have won nil mankind over to tho view expressed by Frederick the Great, who called him the greatest general in tho world. One such affair was the capture of Stony Point, on the Iludson, the night of July 15, 1779. Tho year was one of great trial for the patriots. Provost was ravaging South nrolina with his Indians nnd Tory allies; Mathews was raiding southeast irgmia, laying waste to whole counties, and Gov- cmorTryon, of New York and Connect!- cut, leisurely rocked in un easy chair while tho towns of toe revolutionists melted away before I uo British torch, hashing- ton s army lay at tho Highlands, weak in uien and resource' and hampered Ly the ct tho seat of government, and only ablo to keep up communications n ith dis- tant sections, without attempting grand campaigns. In order to divulo the patriots Sir Ilenry Clinton moved up the Iludson, and seized nnd fortified Stony Point ns a measure to cut Xcw England oil from the middle nnd Routliern colcuics. The posi- tion was n high hhtflf or promontory, sar- by water ct times, nud in dry connected with the mainland by a narrow causeway over a swamp. It wa well equipped by Clinton anil manned with CM men, enough on level ground to with- 3,000, but i:i such a fortress presum- ably r.hlo to keep ct bay ell that could bo brought against them. But Washington, ik as ho was in men, determined to make the attempt, counting on boldness rather than numbers, lie choc for leader Mad Anthony Wayne, whoso deeds at the Brandywine mul Monmouth were an cnrntst of the stuff that was in him. When told that l.e had been selected to storm the strongest fortress in America Lo (Iceland to his chief. I will storm hcil if you will only plan it. Great laution was necessary, for tho miles from Clinplace was Imt forty-tw- o tons base nt New York, nnd tbo Hudson was open to him to seal up iu case ho should suspect a movo-meagainst Sto.iy Point. Wayne had 1,200 men, and tho day before the attack, which was to be at night, he was nt Sandy Bench, fourteen miles from the fort. Tho Intervening distance was over rocks, through swamps and through foi t clogged with fallen trees. The column moved In Indian file, anil after a tedious march, ill fitting for tho eve of such an undertaking, it arrived before dark within a mile and a half of the scene. At this stage stratagem must comoin.fornn open attack on the fortress before them would Is foolhardy. Wayne anil his officers personally rcconnoitcrod, and they found a negro who ha-- the privilege of entering the fort at night with the password to sell fruit and other delicacies. It was decided to make use of him to silence tlfo outer sentinels, so that the garrison should not be got under arms before the nttack was under way. The storming column was divided into two parties, right and left, and each was preceded by a body of picked men with unloaded muskets and fixed bayonets. Lieut Col. De Fleury led one advance body and Maj. Stewart tho other. These were b7 forlorn hopes of twenty men each, under Lieuts. Gibbon and Knox. The latter were to remove nil abatis nnd obstructions, including guards and sentinels. The main divisions were headed by Wayne and Col. Butler. Wayne had two regi-ments, Febrigcrs and Meigs, and Butler his own regiment, vith two companies under Maj. Murfey. The tv idc morass and causeway behind the point were guarded by two sentinels, whom it was essential to silence before attempting the difficult passage. The negro, accompanied by two soldiers in farmers garb, approached these one after the other, gave the countersign and drew near. The farmer looking men seized the Britons and promptly gagged them to stifle any outcry. The whole command of YVayue now crossed the morass, aud at 11:30 begau the steep ascent. All the dogs of the neighix)! hood had been killed during the evening to prevent any outcry, but in some way the sentries on tho hill took alarm and opened fire. The Americans did not answer, but relied on the bayonet when the time came. "To arras! To arms! sounded iu the fort, and in a few seconils a volley of musket shots and grape swept down the incline.

It appears that last Sabbath Mr. Lund was performing some labor which in his estimation was not ong, but nt the instigation of Michael Barcliley lieu as arrested for the offense Sabbath breaking, which is a violation section 185 of the city ordinances. Some delay was made iu the case and finally the defendant changed his venue from Justice Noons court to that of Justice llomcr. Mr. Luml asked fora jury trial and pleaded Ids own case. During his pleading lie referred to some constitutional points in justification of himself, but failed to Influence the jury sutlloleiitly to acquit. They came In with verdict of guilty whereupon Justice Homer imposed a fine of one dollar. The question now arises, did he err In rendering judgment? The city ordinance says specifically that for the offense a fine of not less than five or more than fifty dollars shall be Imposed. As regards the change of venire, Justice Noon as heard to say that lie has strong scruples and would not become accessory to opening the gates and avenues of Sabbath breaking, nel'licr would he break dow n the barriers of good order and peace to permit ruin, riot, and the desecration of the Sabbath.
