British officer:

 's0u that subject could cite the case ol Washington. He was a Lieut.. Col. and A,,- juiant General of the State of Virginia. lis loyalty was not of the fanatieal kind which obiains here. He had rendered great scrvi- ees. Is was he who saved the army, ieopar- ded by the seif-sufhciency of the Regular General Bsaddock, yet 1t was 90 eonsrivr.l thas he should be made ,o give way 10 the Regular Of6eers, his interiors in every re- spect, and Captain Frye. . regular officer of tkaf day was placed iu conmansl over Wash ingS0n. Conscious of his value, washius- ton w0eid not submit to the dcgrzslstion,- and his ecmplainis were deemed 90 absurd as to be amusing. Hut the stone which the huiIders rejccted became the head of the earner,' and Washington was subsequently, offered . Dukedom with enormous spDoias- neats by the very power which had deemed hIzl unworthy of the rank of Adiusant Gen. sEal- His loss certainly was a reirogression, but t was she lrss ssep on his road to iu.- mortality. The name Of Washington fills the eaaivefse. He will neverdie Ba, whicl, cf the S00, ,000, 600 alive of sl,as day recol- iscis tiiaat of ihe stupid Governor Of virxinias There are ne Washingtoas now, otherwise well foaniied complaints would no, bc sys- semasieally saeefea a, as they arc.
