From the N. c. University Magazine
BRITISH INVASION OF NORTH
CAROLINA. IN l7eO-'8l.

Hills Iron Works burned By the enemy
General Sampler as placed at the head Of
the North Carolina Mititia- Unsuccessful
attack on Rocky Mount.
On the 9TH of July, it was understood q
party Of British and Tories were marching
up the west of the Catawba river, and it was
ordered that the men in the West of Neck
lenburg should attend public worship at
Steel Greek Church with their arms on Sun
day the 9th. After sermon, parting with
their families, the men were organized. and
marched down the East side of the river
The enemy advanced the same day as far
as HIPS Iron Works, about 10 miles below
said church, on the West side. They set
the works on fire. In the evening when our
party approached within four miles of the
works on the hills above Bigger's Ferry
they saw the smoke ascending, and heard
the enemy was there. At night our men
were joined by other companies from the
North of Mecklenburg, and few South
Carolina refugees under the command of
General Sumter. He being the officer
highest in grade, was vested with the COM
mand of the whole party. Next morning
we had information by our patrol that after
the enemy had burned the Iron Works.
they marched towards where YOrkviIle now
stands.
General Sumter moved seven miles to
the east, where the road from Charlotte to
the Old Nation Ford crosses Hagler's
Branch, near Spratt's farm, in the course
of the day, and on the 18th had upwards of
500 men. The position being favorable for
collecting supplies Of provisions, he deter
mined TO occupy it few days; but doubt
fal of being visited by the encmy's Cavalry,
the ground being hilly and covered 18th
oak timber, the General ordered the timber
to be felled in different directions around
the camp, somewhat in the form of an abat-
tbs, and the body of the trees split and lean
ed over a strong pole supported by forks
or some high stump, the other end on the
ground at an angle of 30 degrees elevation,
and facing the avenues left through the
brush or abattis for passage, so that it would
answer the double purpose for the men to
lie under and for defence. If the enemy
had come, unless supported by large bo-
dy of infantry or artillery, they could not
have forced the camp.
Major Davie, at his station near Waxhaw
/ creek, by his scouts discovered a party Of
the British were advancing up the road from
Camden, and Immediately sent an express,
TO General Sumter, who, by this time, had
intelligence that the party on the west side
of the river had entered Rocky Mount. Or

THE CHILD OF EARTH.
/ AM CONTENT TO DIE. BUT OH. NOT NOW


Human nature is beautifully portrayed in TIE
following lines:
BY MRS. NORTON.
Fainter her slow step falls from day to day;
Deaths hand is heavy on her dark ming brow
Yet doth she fondly cling TO earth, and say,
q am content to debut oh, not now ~
Not while the blossoms Of joyous spring
Make the warm air such luxury to breathe
Not Will" the birds such lays of gladness sing
Not while bright flowers around my footsteps
wreathe.
Spare me, Great God lift up my dropping brow
/ am content to debut oh! not now"
The spring has ripencd into summer time;
The seasons vicwess boundary is past
The glorious sun has reached his burning prime,
oh must this glimpse Of beauty be the last!
'' L"t me- not perish, while DER land and SEA,
With silent steps the Lord Of Light moves on
Nor while the murnur of the mountain bee
CrrctS my dull ear with music in its tone!
Pale sickness dims my eye and clouds my brow
| am content to debut oh, not now.'
Summer is gonc-and autumn's soberer hues
Tint the ripe fruits and gid the waving com;
The kum,sman swift the flying game pursues,
Shouts the halo! and winds his eager horn.
"Sparc me aw hile, to wander forth and gaze
On the broad meadows and the quiet stream;
To watch in silence while th. evening rays
Slant through the fading trees with rUddy gleanl!
Cooler the. br,.cz, ; play around my brow;
ann content to debut oh, not now"
The bl,a,l, wind whistles, snow showers, far and
ncar,
Drift without echo to the whining ground;
Autumn hath passed away, and cold and drear,
Winter stalks on with frozen mantle bound;
Yet still that prayer ascrnds: ''Oh laughingly
Our little brothers round the warm hearth crowd;
Our home fire blazcs broad, and bright and high,
And the roofrings with voices light and loud.
Spare ne awhile rails" up my dropping brow;
I am content to debut oh, not now
The spring is come again-the joyful spring!
Again the banks with clustering flowers are
spread;
The wild bird dips upon its wanton wing;
The child of earth is numbered with the dead .
Thee never more the sunshine shall awake,
Bcaming, all rcdly, through the lattice pane;
The steps of friends thy slumbcrs may not break
Nor fond, familiar voice arouse, again.
Deaths silent shadow wells thy dml1cncd brow
Why ddst thou lingrr!-thou art happier now :"

Kenneth Raynor and John NJ. Bolts - 1t
thinks the South should do something with
such pestilent fellows, but the exact thing it
does not fix upon. But it seems to us that
Raynor and Bolts are quite competent to
take care of themselyes,--and of the editor
OF the Mercury, too, if he interferes with
them too impertinently.
