OCTOBER.

The woods of October, how brightly they CLEAN,
When sunlight is streaming their branches between;
The crimson and orange the green and the gold,
All forming picture most fair to behold
love there to wander at twilight, alone,
And list to the wild winds low, musical moan,
As it singetha dirge for the summer departed,
requiem sweet for the desolatehearted.
The skies Of October how soft is their hue,
When sunlight and roselight ale blended With blue,
And fair, aeecy clouds float in quiet away,
Like islands of peace in some beautiful bay!
And when night draweth round her dark mantle gloon
And fair shining stars the deep darkness illume
And glimmer like lights in those mansions of love,
Which Christ hath prepared for his children above.
o, dear native month best beloved the year,
The children of summer may call thee severe,
And weep that thy rude winds should scatter the flowers
Which bossomed so brightly in summers gay bowers;
But to me with instruction thou ever art rife,
For thou bringest to mind the October of lite,
And youths summer, know, is not always to stay,
Not always We bask in the sunlight of May.

A SERIOUS OUTRAGE-It has been the proud boast
of this country that it has been almost entirely free
from the disgrace of either having deserters of its
own or of harboring those from other parts. They
have been seldom heard of about here. Butwe have
the particulars of a monstrons outrage by four de-
serters with muskets in their hands, by which John
A. Williams, Esq, one of the most prominent and
best citizens of this country, was near losing his
life. About o'clock on Friday night last Mr..
Williams, being at his plantation "A miles below
town, was informed by one of his servants that per-
sons were gathering his corn in field nearly mile
off. They must have been helping themselves very
literally. for when Mr. Williams came near he heard
them still engaged in pulling corn. When within
some 70 yards of them, and hearing them talking
in low tone, be fired off one Of the barrels OF his
gun, to frighten them. The four men thereupon
rushed on him, cooking their muskets they came.
He shot ono of them with the other barrel the man
falling and groaning very much. Mr.. Williams
seized another by the collar, and endeavored to
shield bi:uself from the blows ofthe others by inter-
nos,np him but they succeeded In striking him
with their muskets, the second blow knocking him
down. They beat him until he was powerless, when
they dessted be staggered off and managed to
reach home, bleeding very much. The men car
red off his gun. On The next day, Saturday, signs
were found Of the wounded man having been carried
off to the swamp, but neither he nor the others had
been found up to yesterday morning. We hope
that no exertions will be spared, by the CITIZENS
as we'll as the civil and military authorities to BRING
these deserters. robbers and almost murderers, to
the punishment so richly deserved by their base and
cowardly crimes The county should be made TOO
hot to hold the wretches. Mr.. Williams has given
h;s sons to the army, and he and his property
should if possible be protected from the eowaros
md thieves who desert their eoun1y's flag Let
this outrage be punished or the life and property
of every obr gaod citizen in the county WILL DC a.
the mercy of such vilians.-Fdy. Observer

LAunENs ON THE HABEAs CoRPUs.-Henry Lau-
rens was President Of the Continental Congress IN
l776. In17SO he was sent as minister to Holland.
On his way he was captuIed and imprisoned in
the Tower Of London for fourteen months. When
Lord Sheburne became Premier~ Laurens was
brought up on ho6eas corpus and released. After
his release, he was treated with great kindress and
respect by the British authorities He dined with
Lord Shelburne. After dinner, the conversation
turned on the separation Of the two countries
Lord Shelburne remarked:

"Why so?" asked Laurens.
'"They will lose the habeas corpus" was the re-

with centuries of wrangling many years Of fighting
and had 1t confirmed by at least fifty acts of Paria
merit All this taught the nation its value; and it
is ingrained in their creed, as the very foundation
of their liberty, that party will ever dare tram
pie on it. Your people will pick it up, and attempt
to use it; but having cost nothing they will not
know how to appreciate it. At the first great in
ternal feud that you have the majority will trample
upon it, and the people will permit it to be done,
and so will go your liberty. "-Published Journal

ANDERsoN's IRON FoUNDRr.-It is very gratifying
to see to what extent and perfection necessity, that
mother of invention is forcing the industrial enter

eason to visit the Foundry of Messrs. David Ander
son and Co. (and Immediately by its side stands
that Of Mr.. NJ. A. Baker, which has suddenly risen
from its ashes, and is again in full operation j.
Messrs Anderson & Co., under the skilful work
manship of their foreman Mr.. Smith, havejust sent
off the principal parts Of huge Rosin Oil Still, in
five pieces, the whole weighing about 10000 lbs,
one piece weighing 5000 lbs and another so much
more that no scales in town would weigh it. tits
for gentleman in Wilmington and one or two 9th
ers like it are wanted by others. We saw there
railroad car wheel, cast from iron made at the En-
dor Iron Works of Messrs. McRae & Co., on Deep
River, which it required forty vigorous blows of the
sledge hammer to crack, and even then the outer
circle was not affected. This severe test satisfies
the workmen that the Eqdor iron is the best ever
made in this State.
