Morbid Impulse.

But one of the most singular instances
in connection with material things. exists
in the case of young man who not long
ago visited large iron mandatory.
He stood opposite huge hammer. and
watched with great interest its perfectly
regular strokes. At first, it was beating
immense Jumps of crimson metal into
thin, black sheets; but the supply be-
coming exhausted, at last it only descend
ed on the polished anvil Still, the young
man gazed intently on its motion; then
he followed its stroke with correspond
ing motion OF his head then his left arm
moved to the same tune; and finally he
deliberately placed his fist upon the anvil,
and in a second it was smitten to Jelly.
The only explanation he could afford was,
that he ielt an impulse to do it, and that
be knew he should be disabled; that he
saw all the consequences in misty kind
of manner; but that he still felt a power
within, above sense and reason-a morbid
impulse, in fact, to which he succumbed,
and by which he lost good right hand.
This incident suggests many things, beside
proving the peculiar nature and power OF
morbid impulses such things, for instance
as law OF sympathy on scale hither-
to undreampt OF, as well as musical tune
pervading all this. Chambers journal.

SAGACIrY OF RATs.-Incredible as the
story may appear OF their removing hens
eggs by one fellow lying on his back and
grasping tightly his ovoid burden with his
tore paws. whilst his comrades drag him
by the tail, we have no reason to disbe.
lieve, knowing as we do, that they
will carry eggs from the bottom to the
top of the house, lifting them from stair
TO stair, the first pushing them up on its
hind. and the second lifting them with its
fore legs. They will extract the cotton
from flask OF Florence oil, dipping in
their long tails, and repeating the maneu-
vre until they have consumed every drop.
We have found Jumps of sugar in deep
drawers at distance of thirty feet from
the place where the petty larceny was
committed; and friend saw a rat mount
a table on which drum of figs was placed,
and straightway tip it over, scattering its
contents on the floor beneath, where
score of expectant brethren sat watching
for the windfall.-Quarterly RerieW.

HISTORICAL SKETCHES
OF THE
Early Settlement of South Carolina.
BY REV, ROBERT LATHAM

TAHLEION SENl IN IOuoOAA L w AAAA
KINGS MOUNTAIN MEN.
Lord CORVALLIS expected to have an easy
time of it so soon as he reached Charlotte.
Here he expected to rest his army, recruit his
forces, replenish his supplies and ultimately
march, with flying colors, through the State
of North Carolina. Apparently, bis plans
were wise, and he undertook, with energy, to
put them into execution. On all sides he
was beset with difficulties.
The region of country now embraced by
the counties of Mecklenburg, Rowan and
Union, together with portions of adjoining
counties, we're full of as true Wings as ever
drew the breath of life. Over the entire re-
gion, extending from the Haw river on the
east to the Broad river on the west, and from
Statesville, North Carolina, on the north, to
Winnsboro, South Carolina, on the south,
there were settlements made by Scotch-1rish
immigrants. Some of these had come into
the region from Bucks, Lancaster and Ches'
ter counties, Pennsylvania, and some Of them
had come directly from the Emerald Isle.
Like the Huguenots, the Scotch-Irish never
had a colony entirely under their control ;
but as early as 1880 they we're almost the ex-
elusive occupants of Cumberland valley.
Harrassed by the Indians, they wended their
way south, and as early as 1850 they were
the controllers of the region Of country en-
braced in Fairfield, Chester Lancaster and
York, South Carolina, and Of considerable
tract of country embraced in the State OF
North Carolina.
Charlotte was kind of nucleus around
which the various Scotch-Irish settlements
clustered. To this point the Wings of Fair.
field, Chester, Lancaster and York fled for
safety on the approach of the British, and
here they assembled that they might organize
for the purpose of resisting the invading foe.
When CORVALLIS entered Charlotte, he was
in the midst of the most Incorporating en-
emies the British government had in all
America. Here he met, at every turn, men
and women who had imbibed the spirit of
John Knox-men who not only dared to think
for themselves on all subjects, both political
and religious, but men and women who never
feared to act with an invincible energy.
Fathers had told their children about the
trials and difficulties of their progenitors on
the other side of the Atlantic. Mothers had
sung the songs of the martyrs to their babes
10 the cradle In their dreams at night, the
children had been waited to the land where
the martyrs had lain weltering in blood.
Young men and maidens had drunk in the
spirit of the martyrs, and tears of indignation
and sorrow alternately streamed down their
cheeks. When the British encamped at Char
lotte, the Wings thought of "Wellwood's
dark muirlands," and their blood boiled with
indignation.
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1876-08-03

true and what to regard as false. Ihe wings
were all around him, and he had scarcely
force enough to enable him to remain in
Charlotte in safety. His supplies were vast
ing away, and it was with great difficulty that
he received any thing from the surrounding
country. The country abounded with cows
mostly milch cows-but very few sheep. The
COWS were poor and the British army killed
on an average one hundred each day during
their stay at Charlotte. On one day they killed
tbirty-seven cows with calf
Surrounded by these difficulties, Cornwall
lis thought it was best to advance toward Vir-
ginia. General Jethro Sumner, with party
Of Wings, was encamped at Alexander's
mill on a branch of Rocky river. To dis
lodge Sumner, CORVALLIS was making prepa-
rations when he heard of the battle of Kings
Mountain. That memorable event took place
on the seventh of October, 1880; but 80
closely was CORVALLIS hemmed in, and go
strictly were the roads and woods watched for
messengers, that it was not until the noun
tain men were gone that he learned certainly
of the battle. ej@I 81 t~=-
So soon as it was rumored that Ferguson
had been defeated at Kings Mountain, Corn
wallis sent out Lieutenant Colonel Tarleton
to assist Ferguson, in the event the rnmor
was false and should it turnou that iFergu-
son was actually killed and his army annihi-
lated, to prevent the victorious Americans
from descending into South Carolina. The
Wbigs in the region of Charlotte we're fully
apprised of the fact, and dispatches we're sent
to Congress from Rocky river, beyond Char
lotte, on the tenth Of October; but Lord
CORVALLIS, up TO this time, was in doubt res
