Hake," said I, laughing, "a full beauty battery, such as I once saw Betty Schuyler show to Walter Butler, having but then received it from New York. And all I know, Lois, is that it was full of boxes, jars, and flasks, and smelled like a garden in late June. And if Mr. Hake has not chosen with discretion I shall go South and scalp him!" "Euan, I adore you!"
But if you desire a conversation a lengthy and more private conversation I am at your disposition. Let me say here, however," and he glanced with fierce meaning at Daisy as he spoke "I am not a Schuyler; I do not encourage 'friends." Even Sir John saw that this was too much. "Come, come, Cross!" he said, going to his friend. "Your tongue runs away with you."
"Then," she said, "John mustn't know. He must never know. It will always be our secret. But then Schuyler knows." "When I tell him what we mean to do, he won't tell." And the first chance I had I told Schuyler. And finished with, "So don't tell John, will you?" "I'll see how happy Lucy manages to make him, first," said Schuyler. "But if you think he won't find out all by himself, you're mistaken.
His soldiers were angry and insubordinate, half his available force had been scattered at Hubbardton, his supplies were gone, his line of retreat in the enemy's hands. Finding himself thus cut off from the direct route to Fort Edward, he now marched to join Schuyler by way of Rutland, Manchester, and Bennington.
The good fairies of Nevis who had attended Hamilton's birth never did better for him than when they gave him Elizabeth Schuyler for wife and Philip Schuyler for father and friend.

It is not Mrs. Stowe, or Mrs. Howe, or Miss Stevenson, or Miss Dix, alone, who is to save the country, but the thousands upon thousands who are at this moment darning stockings, tending babies, sweeping floors. It is to them I speak.
Here a visit to the Schuyler copper mine may be profitably taken; and as I have written a full account of this locality in a previous portion of these articles, I will not reiterate it here, but refer to that paper. The mine, I might add, is only a mile north of the railroad station, and on Schuyler Avenue, a short distance north from its junction with the Jersey City and Paterson turnpike.
The Greatest Good of the Greatest Number Morton Blaine returned to New York from his brief vacation to find awaiting him a frantic note from John Schuyler, the man nearer to him than any save himself, imploring him to "come at once." The appeal was supplemented with the usual intimation that the service was to be rendered to God rather than to man. The note was twenty-four hours old.
The British general therefore must have included in his estimate of loss, only his European troops. This important success was soon followed by another of equal influence on the fate of the campaign. Fort Schuyler had been fortified with more skill, and was defended with more courage, than St. Leger had expected.
"When does the Crowell lady come into her own?" "Not for another week. She isn't quite ready to come, and Mrs. Schuyler is willing to keep me on a while longer." "I don't blame her," and I looked at my pretty, bright-faced sister with approval. "I say, old girl, s'pose I stroll over with you." "Come along. Though I'm not sure Mrs. Schuyler will see you. She usually sends me to receive callers."
