1t is impossible to set bounds to the love
of distinction, or disputes concerning pre-
cedcnce; Of which we have memorable in
stance in the account given by Col. Munroe
of mutiny in the army in India under his
command. Having found it indispensably
necessary to punish some of the ringleaders,
four were ordered to be tied to the guns,
and the artillery officers directed to "blow
them away" Just as the dreadful sentence
was going to be executed, four grenadicrs
stepped forth, and insisted upon it that as
they had always held the post of honor they
were strictly entitled to be blosun Szoay
first, The others therefore were united, and
the grenadiers blown away according to theil
desire.
