l776 -When it was found necessary to call in
the detachment of American troops which
had been posted at Lampriere's ferry, opposite
tn Charleston, South Carolina, three men of
Gen. llogan's North Carolina brigade, were
by some accident left behind who being in
danger Of falling into the enemy's hands, took
shelter in the woods, and were travelling on
toward Georgetown. In hopes of facilitating
their march, and to profit by misfortune, one
of them, who was clad in scarlet, suggested a
stratagem of which his comrades approved,
and which he carried into effect He left his
arms and ammunition with the other two and
went into the plantation of potrcon tory,
The brave North Carolinian personated
messenger despatched by some Of that tribe,
and addressed the owner of the plantation in
the following terms :-"Sir, l understand you

was produced, with saddle, bride, holsters and

mate the loss OF his side-arms. The turn-coat
with equal haste, supplied him with his own
military sword.

remembered the weather looked gloomy and
threatened rain. Sir" said the apostate, 81

PRAYER FOR THE UNION.

Thou too sail on, o Ship of State!
Sail on, o Union, Strong and great
Humanity with all its fears,
With all the hope of future years.
Il hanging breathless on thy fate!
We know what master laid the keel,
What workman wrought thy ribs Of steel,
Who made each mast and sail and rope,
What anvils rang, what hammers beat,
In what forge and what heat
Were shaped the anchors of thy hope!
Fear not each sudden sound and shock,
'Tis of the wave and not the rock
'Tis but the fapping of the sail,
And not a rent made by the gale,
In spite of rock or tempests roar,
In spite of false lights on the shore,
Sail on, nor fear to breast the sea,
Our hearts, our hopes are all with thee.
Our hearts, our hopes, our prayers, Our tears
Our faith triumphant Ger our fears,
Are all with thee are all with thee.
