The proSwas entrusted to the brave GenlrlMontfiomery, assisted by the fnnpfMjjwtriots, Col onels Kthan Allen:fns8eth Warner. While engaged in tvgKRsion Kthan Allen was taken jirisonWTiy the Brit ish and sent lo England, where lie experienced very harsh treatment. It was Colonel Warner'who twice4 I ('(inducted lus men saiuiv nomc, thoZh ni?rdl was constantly sm rounded bv dangers. Oneo Mont- genl ht,m ome l)Ccause th(.ir pomcry sent tlicni nome nccauscineir time was out, and though they were willing to continue in service, tliev were without sufficient clothing, and none could be had in that country. Colonel Warner had hardly arrived homo before he hoard that Mont gomery had been killed, and the cause, as well as the lives of the men, were put in great jeopardy. He col lected his men again and at once started for Canada to assist his cotmtiymen in their extremity, tint his efibrts were of no avail, an.l it was soon found necessary to take up the line of rotrcat. It was the dead of winter, and only necessity sanctioned moving the troops. The terror of pursuit and the rigor of the season furnished sufficient cause foi alarm and haste. Colonel Warner remained with the rear of the army, and aided them in many ways most eiftctually as he was a man well posted in "caring for the sick ami this knowledge now came into excellent use. He must keep the army in motion, not a day must Iks lost,' and vet he was without any chest of medicines. But he understood the medicinal u.-e of roots and herbs, and of ptoper caro at critical times, and with these allies, he made an effectual fight against dis ease among his men. When Ticolideroga was reached and the roll called, thanks to Seth Warner hut few vacancies in the ranks appeared. Col. Warner saved the lives of hun dreds of men in ibis way, and he did a uohlo work, hut it remained for his namesake, II. II. Warner, head of Warner's Mile Cure establishment, to give the fame kind of remedies then used to the p "ople of today, in "Warners Log Cabin Iteinedies' These remedies have been adopted after thorough trinl and investigation, and they are remedies of established reputation. Being wholly vegetable, they can Ikj used without any fear as to tho results. Among the new remedies is a Sar saparilla for the blood, Hops and lh'chu for the stomach and digestion.

Among all the "matching" cranks who have yet appeared, who have contested walking- matches and eating-mutches and driiikiiir-matelies, who have proved the smallness of their heads by the size of their stom achs, or the weakness or their brains by the strength of their muscles, there has not been one. uutil'lSst.Aveek, who wits worth a seconds Tiiou: lionglit from any one! who had a tlumblenil ot Drains, conservative. His administni Jiut at hist there has come one tion lnenns J)eacc nnj stability possessed of a matching liTania j to coinmerciiil interests. The which is certainly of interest, 'opposition to him between now and winch may be or use to the j jmj june) when the eicct;0)l 0c. bewildered victims of modern , cm.5j wn not probably bring rush and hurry. He wants to j siny political crisis to excite any get tip a sleeping-match. He unusn;ll n0nlar feeling. The sends out a challenge to all the rest of the world and e linages to sleep against any one for the snace of 124 hours. And his : backers declare that their money talks. The readiness with which his challenge has been accepted by three other gentle- men, one of whom says he can go away beyond the challenger's limit and never know .that he has snored at all, shows that sleeping has become a profes sional matter, like living on water or eating quails or hard boiled eggs by 'the dozzed. It is not stated whether these rrentleinen belong to the seien tific or sporting world, whether they tire to be duel with D. Tanner or with the clam-outing enthusiasts. Jut the two pro fessions have lately b'om ? so closely linked -as to prove by by the welcome which Profess.)! John Sullivan receive in one and the ease with which he fra- ternizes with the othoi -that it dnns not matter much whether they wish to take their Hv. day's sleep for glory, for the good of humanity, or lor tnc benent ot tneir purses. fiss Laura Webster, whose sleeping performances have been told in the Examiner, in her three month's nap, went so far ahead of what any of these pro fessional sleepers say they can do, that in comparison their live day's sleep is a mere momentary snore. The doctors say she lost her will power, so was un able to wake up. Perhaps j Ir. Debois and Mr. Benson and the rest of these profes- sors of sleep shut t,ieir several will powers in the closet before they lie down to their I iff I. cirrv i -or i:m iiiiv . ii i ii manafe to remain blifhlly nn conscious of several mornings of milch-wagons, several evenings of next door pianos and several days of orange-peddlers- at the frontdoor by bracing P tl,e will power and setting it bolt upright by the bed Hut however it is done, if they really sleep a natural, rest ful sleep for five days, and will tell how it is done, champ'on 1 elts and gold medals ought to be poured down upon them like a Panama rain. rnwillingness to waste time in bed and inability to sleep af ter we get there, keep American : nerves wound up to a state of ,., . tension which is pretty sure to j cause something to break some time. If a prophet ard profes- sor of sleep-will arise who will prove the possibility of sleeping a? lo i as one wishes, and show how it can be done, his fortune is is trood as made. S. E. Ex aminer.
