wholly untrue" We expected as

THE ANNIVERSARY OF KING'S
MOUNTAIN.

any other continent.
THE ANNIVERSARY OF KINGS
MOUNTAIN.
Prominent among the glorious ira
ditions of Tennessee is the part our
mountaineer forefathers-they who af-
forwards scattered to the westward,
settling the State-took in the battle
of Kings Mountain, in 1850. the ami
versary of which occurs tomorrow. In
bOldness of design, perfection of detail,
and triumphant success, this battle
stands without parallel in military
annals. 1t was not defence, ike the
famed Thermopylae, or jack
sons achievement at New Or
leans; but an assault by backwoodsmen,
in inferior numbers, upon British reg
ulars .entrenched upon a mountain top
under a brave and experienced COM
mander. The plan seemed rash in the
extreme, yet it was the one way to
compass the victory. The revolution
airy mOuntaineers, under Shelby,
CaApbell, Sewer, Winston, Hambright,
Chronicle, Cleveland, Williams and
Mcdowell, diverged on either side of
the mountain, ascending as they ad-
vanced, till the two TANKS met
at the further end, completely
enveloping the superior enemy, who
foundered from side to side, first
charging down the hill in one direc-
ton, only to find the Ameri-
cans on the crest in their rear, then
charging back to find the same process
repeated, the unerring rife of the hack
woodsmen decimating their ranks at
every step, while their fire overshot the
mark. The official report to Gen. Gates,
signed by VIM. Campbell, Isaac Shelby
and Benjamin Cleveland, shows
that the British lost Dds killed
to only 163 wounded. These figures
betray the craftsmanship of our pio-
neer forefathers. They wasted but
little ammunition. The loss of the at
lacking Americans was only twenty
eight killed and sixty wounded. The
total American force engaged was 9lO,
while the British numbered l, lbs. The
result was there were more prisoners
than captors, besides l,500 stand of
arms that fell into the hands of the
latter. What a eavalcade was that
through the primeval woods to Virginia
taking prisoners and arms to the
army Of Gates, Referring to this sig
nal victory, Thomas Jefferson said: at
was the joyful ennunciation of that
turn In the tide of success, that termi-
mated the revolutionary war with the
seal of our independence" Gen. Ber-
nard, an officer under Napoleon, after
examining the whole battle
field of Kings Mountain, wrote: "The
shape of the hill itself wouldbe an eter-
nal monument to the military geniusa and
skill of Col. Ferguson the British CON-
in selecting a position so well |
for defence; and no other plan |
Of assault but that pursued by the |
men could have succeeded |
against him."
Though the subject is tempting, We
must forbear, as an able lecturer dis
on the inspiring theme this
evening at the Exposition. We have
referred to the subject only to whetthe
appetites of our readers for
.he full feast that is before them. Ev-
Try incident of Kings Mountain should
Dc embalmed in the memories of Ten
lesseeans to the last generation.

REV. Mr.. PRETTYMAN. Postmaster
at Marietta, Ga, whose defaIcation has
recently been discovered, visited Phil
adelphia some enonths ago and de-
nounced the Southern people in the
harshest and most severe terms, repre-
senting them as cruel TO the negro,
and claiming that his mission was 10
reform the sinful whites and rescue the
blacks from oppression. The trouble
with Mr.. Prettyman was that he
neglected the weaker sex and devoted
too much attention to the mails. Sic.
In Tennessee, Gov. Brown has fol
lowed up the Gibson county lynchers
with vigor. Rewards have been set
upon their heads. Some of them have
been already arrested. One has been
induced to ten States evidence. There
is a good prospect Of the conviction Of
the whole gang. Such decisive action
by the State authorities has put sud-
den stop to the outbreak Of race hatred
which the Civil Rights bill threatened
to cause. Tennessee is again at peace.

m., Dec. 26. 1873. Thirteen Oranges
of the county were represented.
The question assigned to the several
Oranges at the last meeting for general
consideration, in regard to the law re-
straining cattle from running at large.
was taken up and discussed at some
length. Several Oranges had taken
action upon the question Of "fencins
in and the delegates were prepared to
make report. As this. is matter of
no little interest to the public at the
present time, brief statement Of the
points presented may not be out Of
place.
Mr.. Pearce stated that the Roches
ter Grange had held an open meeting
for the discussion Of this question, and
about twothirds Of those present at

peal OF the present law.

co Grange had passed resolution uu-
anlm"usly, asking for repeal Of the

was decided b. 4 large majority that it
was for the interest Of the farmers to
sustain the present law.
Mr.. j. L. Wright said that the oues-
tion had not been considered by the

not allowed to run at large in Dover, he
presumed the people there were gen

law.

thought ajority Of the people of Orion

now stands.

High Forest Grange, passed resolu-
ton unanimously, favoring the repeal
of the '' fencing in y law.

thought vote upon the question would

An old salt barrel is convenient. Set il

have any for chinking; cover with salt,
then hams and salt again, till .he barrel is
