BURS UNDER THE SADDLE.
A REVOLUTIONARY SKETCH.

During the month of March, 1778, the
British army being at Philadelphia, and the
American forces at Valley Forge, the Amer.
lean commander-in. chief was desirous of ha-
wing some information concerning the state
of affairs in the city, and desired Captain
Allen. .McLane to pick him out few trusty
men for the purpose. ,McLane selected five
of his own men, with sergeant John Marks
for leader, and sent the latter to head quar-.
ters to receive instructions. Marks was q
very young man to be entrusted with impor.
tant services, being only twenty-five years Of
age but McLane had frequently marked his
conduct in camp and field, and made him
self we'll acquainted with his character, and
knew that he could be thoroughly relied on.
Marks was a lank, bony fellow, with high
cheek bones, square jaw, and rather large
mouth; but he had a fine, expressive eye,
his features were exceedingly noble. and his
countenance entirely under his control
With this he possessed great power of rim
icry, which he used to show off frequently
for the amusement of his comrades, and had
a reputation for shrewdpess. His muscular
system had not yet received its full develop
ment; but his habits had made him almost
as active as a panther. He was fully in
structed by General Washington, as to the
information desired, and left at dark, arri-
wing in short time at Port Kennedy, on
the Scuylkill. At that point be struck
across the country, and by means Of by-ways
with which he was we'll acquainted, having
been raised in the neighborhood, evaded the
scouting parties of the enemy, and arrived
at Mantua, before dark. Here he posted his
little troop, in a cedar hollow, overlooking
the river; while he, in disguise of coun-
tryman, with sack of vegetables, which he
had stolen from a garden in the neighbor-
hood, rode into the city. He not only esca-
ped detection, but managed to sell his vege-
tables to number of Howe's staff, was ta-
ken to the Generals presence, and in return
for false information in regard to Washing
toms movements, managed to learn some
facts of Importance. Promising to return,
in few days with more vegetables, he was
enabled to leave the town leisurely, with a
passport in his pocket, and some sugar, cof-
fee and other articles of like nature in his
sack He joined his men without suspicion,
about night-fall, and after dark the little par
ty set out on its return.
Now had Marks kept in the course by
which he came, it is possible he could have
reached the American lines in good time,
and safely. Rut it happened that about
mile from the river, at point nearly oppo-
posite Spring Mill, lived farmer by the
name of McIlvane, who, although Quaker
and ombatant, was we'll disposed to.
wards the American cause McIlvane had
daughter. named Priscilla, q young and
handsome girl, to whom Marks was strongly
attached, but who had never betrayed any
symptoms of affection in return. The house
was half mile or more out of the former
route, but lover-like, the trooper took his
men in that direction. 1t was late in the
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1858-09-02

be adjudged to eternal life and Heaven; or
sentenced to despair, by therevealed will Of
God which they never knew?
II answer. This is neither the time, nor
place for this decision this is had at death !;
but it is the time and place for REGARDS to
be awarded, and for the manifestation of the
righteous judgment Of God. Here GAS many
as have sinned without { [written] law, shall
also perish without written] law; and as
many as have sinned in the law, shall be
judged by the written law" Rom ~,
16; 1:l9, 20; ..Psal. 1911, 2, 8; Rom.
1882, with 2:1; Nat. .25 ;:31, to end
To the same end, viz: To find rule Of
moral obligation on man, not written in the
Bible, "a Presbyterian" has quoted Eph.
6:1. This Scripture says, 'ttChildren obey
your parents in the Lord, for this is right"
He interprets this passage, that it is right,
right in itself, right inits essence, right be-
fore it was commanded, right independently
of any command from. God in the Bible,
eternally right, that children render this obe-
dience. 49,. .~~....,. - ar.-..-
= answer. q, The true Interpretation of this,
Scripture is. found in COL 8: 20, where tits
said, -"Children obey your parents in all
things, for this is we'll pleasing unto the
Lord" Here the reason for the rule ia set
tied, viz: because it is the aoiH Of God as
expressed here, and in, Exod. 20: :l2, and
not because It's right6eforeit it was command
ed, aoithoat a precept, or from eteraatys =!
Butsays CA Presbyterian. ;"scott"when'
commenting on this passage, (Eph. 6':l0
says Of this, "this is in itseifright, equitable;
and reasonable" .s.''' '"-'1s - 80 ,-''+s',
Fanswer. Very>:wel.s But the trick is:
here, IA Presbyterian" is teachine, ,us, that
Mr.. Scott here means that this duty cf' obe-
dience in children 'sis right in ITSELF, that it
is right before it was commanded right
s0ithous being commanded in the Bible, eter:'
nazy right, having NO other reason for the
rule."- Amazingly absurd. Mr.. Scott here,
in his commentary on BpE. 6:l, when read
with his context, says Of this commandment;
it ssis in itself right, equitable and reason:
able" and goes on to say, "the law of God
expressly commands children to ''honoT the
persons, and authority Of both father and
mother" And he afirms this his interpre-.
tatiou, by quoting in bis reference, Exod.
20: 12; Deut. 27:16, and many other
Scriptures. s@"A Presbyterian" here
has fshed for help from Mr.. Scott, in bis
own notions; but he missed it. Mr., Scott
had too much good sense, to under prop this
nonsense. And "a Presbyterian" ought to
be ashamed of his abuse of the opinion of
Mr.. Scott. ..

KING soLoMoN's BLACKSMITH.

KING soLoMoN'S BLACKSMITH.
And itoameto pass when Solomon, the son
of David, had finished the Temple Of Jeru.
salem, that he had called unto him the chief
architects, the head artifcers, and cunning
workers in silver and gold, and in wood, and
in ivory, and in stone-yea, all who had aid
ed in rearing the Temple of the Lord, and
he said unto them:
"Sitye down at my table; I have prepared
feast fer all my chief workers, and Gun.
ming artifcers. Stretch forth your hand
therefore, and eat and drink, and be merry.
Is not the laborer worthy of his hire? Is
not the skillful arti6cer deserving of honor ?
Muzzle not the OK that treadeth out the
corn"
And when Solomon and the chief work.
men were seated, and the fatness Of the
land and the oil thereof were set upon the
table, there came one who knocked loudly at
the door, and forced himself even into the
festal chamber. Then Solomon, the King,
was wroth, and said:
"What manner of man art tho" !"
The man answered and said:
"When men wish to honor me they call
me Son of the Forge; but when they de-
sire to mock me, they call me blacksmith; /;
and seeing that the toll of working in fire
covers me with sweat and smut, the latter
name O King, is not iDapt, and, in truth,
thy servant desires no better"
"But," said Solomon; "why came you
thus rudely and unbidden to the feast, where
none save the chief workmeD of the Temple
are invited"
"Please ye, my lord, I came rudely," re-
piled the man; "because thy servant obliged
me to force my way; but came not unbid
den. Was it not proclaimed that tho chief
workmen of the Temple were invited to dine
with the King of Israeli"
Then he who carved the cherubim said {:
This fellow is no SCULPTOR" and he who
inlaid the roof with pure gold said "Neith-
er is he workman in fine metals.
And he who raised the walls said: "He
is not a cutter of stone." ---., '. '..
