Mrs. DMdDGENE (G. BATTM. Saw The Father of His Country Strange Things in His Sleep. (Honolulu Advertiser.) The sul'joiiiL'd most remarkable production was published in the Polynesian newspaper of this place on the i itb of January, i86j. The article came here from the United States. It was most likely printed in the fill or winter of 1S61, when the issue between the North and South in the United States was pretty close. Very few will fail to read closely aud think upon this matter: The following narrative was re lated by Anthony Sherman, an oct ogenarian, who heard the account from Washington's own lips: The darkest period of our Revo lution was the year 1777, when Washington, after experiencing many reverses, went into winter quarters at Valley Forge. Otten I observed tears course down the cheeks ot the beloved commander when he was considering the suf ferings ot his brave soldiers. Wash-1 ington was iu the habit oi praying in secret, and calling upon Cod for assistance, and it was only by the help of God we passed those days of adversity. One dav Washington spent the whole afternoon in his room alone. When he came out I observed he was much paler than usual, when he related to me the following: "Whilst I was sitting at my ta ble this alternoon engaged in writ ing, ami my mind was heavy with sorrow, I suddenly observed di redly opposite to me a most beau tiful female. I was so much sur prised, for I had given strict orders not to lie disturbed, that I could not find words at the moment to in quire the object of this unexpected visit. Two, three and even four tunes I repeated the question with out receiving an answer, the only effect being that she raised her eyes a little. "I now experienced a most curi ous sensation spread over my whole body. I wished to rise from my seat, but the steady gaze of my mysterious visitor kept me spell bound. I again tried to speak to her but my tongue was tied. An unknown mysterious, irresistahlc power hail taken me prisoner could do nothing else but ga.e at the apparition. Gradually the room lilleil witli light and the lace grew more clear and blight. My feel' ings were those ot a dying man I could neither think nor act. My steady gae at the figure was all I was aware of. "I now heard a voice, which said: 'Son of the Republic, behold and learn.' At the same time the ligtite stretched out its arms and pointed with the linger toward the ea-t. Ught cloud arose in the distance, which disjiersed, and re veiled, to my ev es a most astonish ing picture. IMoie me all the countries of the earth were spread out Kurope, Asia, Afiicaand Am erica, IVtwicn Kurope and Amcr ic.i I saw the waves of the Atlantic Ocean toss backward and forward, ami U'tween America and Asia the waves of the Pacific Ocean. Again I heard the voice, 'Son of the Re public, behold and learn.' ' 'Immediately a dark form like that of an angel appeared over the ocean 1 'tween Kurope and Amer- its right hand sprinkled it over America, and with its left hand over Kurope. Immediately dark clouds arose from both these coun tries, which met in the middle of the ocean; here they remained sta tionary for a short while, then mov' ed westward and wrapped America in darkness. Lightning flashed through the dark clouds and heard the groaning and shrieking of the American people. "Again the angel dipped water from the ocean and sprinkled it as before. The black clouds withdrew aud sunk in the sea. For the third time I heard the voice, 'Son of the Republic, behold and learn!' 'I looked toward America and saw populous villages and cities spread out from the Atlantic coast to the Pacific ocean. Again I heard the mysterious voice, 'Son of the Republic, behold and learn. "The dark form of the angel then turned toward the south, and, com ing from Africa, I observed a hor rible phantom make its way to our country. It floated slow and heavy over our towns and the couutry. The Inhabitants rose to make war on each other, and formed iu battle arrav. As I looked at this scene I observed an angel surrounded with light, on his head he wore a beau tiful crown, on which was inscribed the word 'Union,' in his hand he held the American Star Spangled Banner, this he planted between the contending armies, crying out, 'Remember, you are my brother ' "Immediately the nation threw away tueir arms, became mends again and gathered around the Star Spangled Banner. Again I heard the mysterious voice, "Son of the Republic, the second danger is past; behold and learn.' "And I saw villages and cities steadily increase in size and num ber until the whole country was covered with them, the whole ex tent, from the Atlantic to the Paci fic Ocean, and the nation had mul tiplied in as countless numbers as the stars in heaven or the sands on the seashore. Again I heard the voice, 'Son of the Republic, the end of the century is at hand; behold and learn.' "The dark angel then put a trumpet to his mouth, blew it three times, then dipped out some water from the sea and sprinkled it over Kurope, Asia and America. "My eyes now beheld a most ter rible scene. From each of these countries dark, heavy clouds arose and united in one mass; through this mass dark red lightning play ed. I saw troops of armed men marching and then sail across the sea to America, which was imme diately covered by the black cloud. And I saw these immense armies as they desolated the land, and laid towns and villages in ashes. I heard the roar of cannon, the clash ing of swords, the cry of the vie 1 torious and vanquished millions en-. gaged in deadly strife when again I heard the mysterious voice pro- j claim: 'Son of the Republic; be-i hold and learn.' j "The dark angel then again took j up the trumpet and gave one long and terrible blow. Suddenly a light broke forth and drove away the dark cloud hoverinf over A as- erica. At the same time I iw the angel with the beautiful crown, which was inscribed the word 'Un ion,' descend from Heaven, hold- aud accompanied by legions of hea venly spirits. These united with the American people, when the lat ter were almost overpowered, who then took fresh courage and form ed in battle array. Again, amid the horrible noise of war, I heard the mysterious voice, 'Son of the Republic, behold and learn.' "After this voice the dark angel dipped out water for the last time from the sea and sprinkled it over America, and immediately the dark cloud retreated with the armies which it had brought along, leav ing the victory to the Americans. I then again saw towns and villages rise in the same places where they had stood before, while the heaven ly angel planted the Star Spangled Banner among the people and cried out with a loud voice. 'As long as the dew descends from heaven to earth, so long shall this republic exist.' At the same time he took the beautiful crown from his head. on which was inscriled the word 'Union,' placed it 011 the Star Span gled llauuer, and the people, kneel ing down, cried out 'Amen.' ''The apparition theu gradually began to dissolve, and at last the mysterious female was all that re mained before me in my room, and acain I heard the voice: 'Son of the Republic, what you have seen is explained as follows: Three dangers will come over this Repub lic; the second is the most to be dreaded; when this one is passed, the whole world cannot conquer her. Let every child of the Repub lic learn to serve his God, his coun try, and the Union.' With these words the form vanished. "I arose from my chair with the firm conviction that the birth, pro gress and fate of the United States of America had been revealed to me." These words, says Mr. Sherman, I heard myself from General Wash ington's own lips. PROPOSALS WANTED. For Crushing and Hauling Rock.
