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.
