As late as the year 1830, there lived In WesternVimniu a man, whose stiengtli was 40 remarkableas to win lolhitnthe title ol the "Virginia Samp-ion," He knew nothing of his liiilli o( parent¬age, but suppos d lie was born in I'oitugnl, fromwhence he was Stolen when a child and corricd toIselniut.

On l is ulllval his lime and seivioeswere sold loa Mr, Winston, of Virginia, in who*;service he teinnined until the breaking out of thedevolution, Being of an adventurous turn inmind, he sought and obtained permission of Idsmaster to Join ll eaimy, and was engaged in activeservice during me whole contest.

°8One day while reconnoitring, he slopped atthe hotife of a man by the name of W.., lo re¬fresh himself. While at the table lie was surpris¬ed by nine British troopers, who rode up to thehouse and told liiin lie was their prisoner. SeeingHint he was so greatly outnumbered, he p.etendedlo surrender, and the drayouns seeing he was appa¬rently veiy peacefully inclined, otter disarmingliiin, allowed Idm considerable freedom, whitethey sat down to pallake ol the food which hehad left when disturbed.

Mounting the only hoise he could get at,he presented the muzzlenlthe breast ol Franciscoand pulled the trigger. Fortunately it missed fire,and Fiancisco cloied in upon him. A shortstrug-gle ensued, which ended in his disarming andwounding the soldier. Tarlton'i lroo|i of lourhundred men were now In sigh', ami the otherdragoons » ere about lo attack him.

lustrative of his immense strength and ptrsuunlprowess. At Camden, where Ootes was defeated,he telrealed and after running along n toad somedistance, he sal down lo rest himself, lie wassuddenly accosted by a British dragoon, who pre¬sented a pistol, and demanded his immediate sur¬render.
