*fl^sliowe/S «in fell soon after Champe’* de- j
nature, which enabled the pursuing dragoon* to j
Lke he trail of his horse, bis shoes, to common |
J5J those of the horses of the army, being made
: peculiar form, and each having a private ,
mark. Which was to be seen u» the path. ,
Some miles above Bergen, a v.llage three miles
nurth of New York, on the opposite side of the |
Huj9o„ on ascending a bill, Champe was des
"rijl Sot more than half. m.l, disunl. F-rtu
in tel V he noticed his pursuers at the same mu
” nt*. and conjecturing their object, put spurs to
h.s horse. With the hope ot escape
taking a different road, Champe was for a
ti ,ie lost sight of; but upon approaching the river
l, was a-’a.n descried. Aware of his danger, he ,
,MIW lathed his valice containing hi* clothes and .
orderly book, to htsshoulders, ami prepared luin
s. !| to plunge into the river if necessary.
Swift was his flight, and swift the pursuit.—
The pursuing partv were within a hundred yards
when Champe threw himself fratn his horse, and
plunged into the river, calling aloud upon some
lir iiii.lt gallies at no great distance, tor help. A ;
boat was instantly despatched to the sergeants
assistance, and a‘ fire commenced upon the pur-.
-iers Champe was taken on board, and soon
:,flor orri-J 10 New York, .ill. a leiter fro-o j
;!ie captain, stating the past scene, all of which j
lie had witnessed.
•fhe pursuers having recovered flic . sergeant s
lurrse and cloak, returned to camp, where they t
arrived about eight o’clock the next day. Un
’ irir appearance with the well-known horse, the
soldiers made the air resound with acclamations,
that the scoundrel was killed. The agony ut (
Lee, for a moment, was past description, lest the
faithful, honorable, intrepid Champe had fallen.
But the truth soon relieved bis tears, ami he re
paired to Washington to impart to him ^thus far
i':e success of his plan. Alter Chatnpe s arrival
in New York, he enlisted under Arnold’s legion, ;
imposed principally of Ameiican deserters.— [
( huti>pc discovered it was Arnold s custom to j
ie"irn borne about twelve o’clock every night;
and that previously to going to tied, ne visiuu
the garden. During this visit, the conspirators
whom ('humpe had ;«ssocsated with him, were to
suze hnn. and, being prepared with a gag, they
eie to apply the same instantly.
Adjoining the house m which Arnold resided,
and m which it was designed to seize and gag
him, Champe had taken off several of the pail
iti.,3 and replaced them, so that with ease, and
without noive, he could readily open his way to
the adjoining alley. After he was secured,
Champe and Ins triend intended to place them
selves each under Arnold's shoulder, and thus
bear Inin through the most unfrequented streets
to ihe b >ul in waiting, representing him, in case
ot being questioned, as a drunken soldier, whom
thev were » onveving to the guard house.
The dav arrived, and Lee, with a party of ac
coutred horses, (one for Arnold, one lor the ser
geant, and one for his associate,) lelt the camp,
never doubting of success. Hut Champe did not
arrive. In a few days Lee received an anony
mous letter from Champe. informing him that on
the dav preceding the night ti\ed for the execu
tion ot the plot, Arnold had removed liis quar
ters to another part of the town.
Champe was not able to escape from the Bri
tish army, until after the junction of the army of
l.ord Cornwallis at Petersburg!', when he deser
ted and returned to the Americans. We shall
■o-ilf a<ht, r*-,pecring the after life of tins interest
ing adventurer, that when Gen. Washington
w as called by President Adams, in 1798, to the
command ot the army prepared to defend the 1
country from French hostility, he sent to Lieut.
Col. Lee. to inquire for Champe, being determin
ed to bring hnn into the held at the head of a
company of infantry. Lee inquired, but found
the gallant soldier, alter leaving-the army, had
•bed in Kentucky.

veral days bi-fore'the Message arrived there, con

THE CHOLERA*
In the Board of Health Commissioners, }
Boston, Aug. 31, 1832. 5
This Board announce to the public that a case
of Malignant Cholera occurred, and terminated
fatally, this day, at a house in the rear of No. |
143 Ann street! The name of the deceased is
Clarissa Newell; her age was 30 years, and the ;
time of her death 12 o’clock at noon. By order
i)f the Board, WM. HAYDEN, Jr.
■ Secretary.
Philadelphia, Sept. 1, 183-2.
The Board of Health in consequence of the
»ery great decrease of Cholera cases in the City
and Districts, have directed the Daily Reports to 1
he discontinued; a Register ot all cases reported,
to be kept at the Office for the inspection of the pub
lic, and the Weekly List of Interments be pub- j
lished as heretofore.
The Board pledge themselves, in case the (
Disease should revisit us in an extended form,
to renew the publication of the Daily Reports,;
fur the satisfaction of their fellow citizens.
WM. BINDER, President.
M. E. Israel, Sec’y.
Baltimork, Sept. 3.
The 1160111° by Cholera, for the last twenty-1
four hours ending on Sunday morning, were 35;
20 white, and 15 colored persons.
For the same period, ending this morning,
there were again 35 deaths: 21 white, and 14
colored persons.
It is a consolatory fact, and one that is ealeu- 1
luted to lessen the alarm which has prevailed in
regard to attacks of the prevailing Malignant ;
Cholera, that the physicians of every city ill the !
United States, in which it has made its appear
ance, concur in giving their assurance, that it is as
much within the control of medical skill, as any I
of the other diseases which all’ect the human sys
tem, if immediate application be made to a re
spectable Physician when the first premonitory j
symptoms of attack arc expetienced. Care ;
should be especially taken by all persons to !
whom this fad is known, to communicate it free- 1
ly to that description of our population in their ,
immediate neighborhood who are most likely to
be uninformed.
We learn with much satisfaction that the Cho
lera nas nearly discontinued its attacks on the
residents at the Alins House in Baltimore Coun
ty: noi more than two or three cases have occur
red for several days past. — Halt. Gaz.

Cholera in Washington City.—The fatality j
of this disease augments, it would appear, daily, j
The Report of the Board of Health is confessed
ly below the truth, from want of the means of as
certainin''it. The disease is, however, pretty
much confined to one or two spots. There were
yesterday two or three more deaths in the Square
we have already mentioned Southwest of the
G-neral Post-Office; making a mortality, vvi'hin
a week, of perhaps tifteen oi^^if a population of
not inure than two hundred.^WVith few excep
tions, the victims are such as might be expected
to be the subjects of epidemic disease.

Obituary.—The sudden and melancholy death
of M iss Mary Mkmkksi.y, occasioned by a fall
from a horse on the 26th ult. is a source of the
deepest sorrow to ail who knew her, (as none
could know her without loving her.)
This lovely, interesting young lady was on a
visit to a dear fiicnd in tins city at the time of
this heart rending accident. In the midst of Ide.
health, and every social enjoyment, thus lias she,
in a moment, been cut oft by a wise, inscrutable ,
providence, from an attached circle of relatives
and friends.
Though no parent lives to bend over her tomb,
there is one, a widowed •u,‘ter, to whom she was
united bv ties beyond a sister’s love! Alone and
retired; iliev had lived together in their orphan- :
age, the support and consolation of each other, j
Thus uniteu, who can estimate the overwhelming ;
bereavement of this widowed sister, by this most j
awful aud sudden separation? Who can realise!
the hopelessness of her qjiei? Alas! there is
now but one source of comfort for her. Religion 1
points the vav to that consolation and hope that
lives and flourishes beyond the tomb, where, for
ever united, they cannot again be separated.
Early and deeply imbued with the vital princi
ples of piety, Miss Hetnerslv will be remember- j
i d bv the kind Sisters of the Visitation of George- i
town, who educated and guided her early yeais; j
there she acquired not only her superior inteilec- j1
tual pow^i-Hj but those lessons of benevolence and
rhrisii.m charity which so strongly marked every
feeling and action of her life.
Weep not, therefore, for her as those without *
tope, for though so young, yet like the pious vir* i
jin, het lamp was already trimmed and burning, <
ind she was ready to meet the coming of her j
Lord. —( Cum.) ,

COMMERCIAL.
Liverpool, July 24.—Corn Exchange.—
This week's importations Rre alike small of every
irticleof the trade; 4,072 quarters ot Canadian
Wheat from the principal item. The neigh
boring millers, who for some time, have purchas
ed with extreme caution and are generally low
in stock, are now taking the finer descriptions of
Wheat with more freedom; our price* being also
below those of the surrounding markets, several
pu rchases have been made, during the week, for
the interior. Nearly the whole of the recent
imports of Canadian fled Wheat has found buy
ers at about the rates of Tuesday; several par
cels of fresh Irish have also been sold without any
further reduction in prices, but holders of the
iecondarv and inferior descriptions, though dis
posed to submit, have been unable to make muclw
if any progress.
Prime Irish Flour continues scarce, and lias
rully maintained late rates. The only sale report
id in the bonded market is that of 1000 barrels
)f Western Canal Flour, partially sour, at 20s
per barrel; holders are more disposed to press
sales.
At this morning’s market the sales in Wheat
were chiefly confined to the Canadian, in which
i fair amount of business was transacted, at about
the rates of Thursday last; other descriptions of
Wheat, sod inure particularly Irish, wore difficult
to quit, at a decline of Id to 2d per bushel. No
change in the value of Flour.
