I was busily occupied one summer’s mor ning in my garden, when I was saluted by an old fashioned farmer, on his way to mill.— He rode a stout, well-limbed, active young horse, with the manner of one early accus- i tomed to the saddle, and managed him in his humors, with the art and address of a man fond of a pet animal. The old man’s hat was low-crowned and slouched, but looked as if it had once been looped, or cocked up—a style which some may recollect ns incidental to many a revolu tionary veteran. The weather invited to rest; we both seemed willing to enjoy shade and conversa tion ; end by observations casually made— in which probably the old man’s appearance assisted—we talked of the times of the Rev olution, he sitting on his horse, ( for, like ma ny good talkers, he Intd no time to alight!) and I standing on the other side of my fence, in the garden, both of us shaded by some fine oaks which refreshed the road by which he was passing. In this way I picked up the following nar rative of “ THE SURPRISE AT M’iNTIRe’s.” The inhabitants of a large plantation, on the road leading from the town of Charlotte toBeatie’s Ford, on the Catawba, were alarm ed one morning in early autumn, by fie report of a country Lid, that a d-tachment of British light horse with a line of empty baggage wag gons were on their march to procure forage for tbe English troops under the command of Lord Cornwallis, who had his head-quarters in the county town of Mecklenburg, North Carolina. As the boy passed the farm-house he gave the alarm and galloped on. The women were seen stu gling after him—some loaded with the riffles and accoutrements of tbo men who were at work in the fields—while others, as sisted by the negroes, led forth horses from the stables, and hastily saddled them for the ser vice. The men were promptly amiod, the women and children with sud necessaries as could be snatched up, were mounted by twos and threes upon »he horses, and accompanied by thf servants, directed their course through the wootls to such neighbors as were most retired from the main road. Although the boy who gave the alarm had used every exertion, nnd, mounted upon a ja ded colt just taken from the plough, had cash ed through the most direct by-paths, the men had scarcely time to conceal themselves in a deep thicket and swamp, which bordered one extremity of the plantation, before the British videtts were in sight. They halted upon the brow of a hill, abova the branch of a creek, for the approach of the main body, and then, in complete order, advanced to the plantnt on. After reconnoitering the premises, and find ing no one present, but all appearances o*'the hasty flight of the inhabitants, the dragoons dis mounted, the horses were tethered, and a guard detailed. Some sumpter horses were harnessed to the farm wagons and parties be gan to loud them with the various products of the field ; while the military baggage wagons under the charge of a rear guard, gradually ar rived, and were employed ini gathering the new corn, and carrying stacks of oats and of the freshly pulled corn fodder. It was the practice with our countrymen, led to precaution by their early contests with the aborigines, to form associations with their neighbors, fir mutual support in cuse of dan- ger, and in their visits of friendship, or busi ness, they always bore arms. There were twelve men now lying in close ambush on the edge of the plantation. They had all acted on scouting parties, were expert in ^he use of the rifle, and perfectly acquainted with all the pe culiarities of the counlry. They were divided, at regular distances, in couples, concealed ve ry near to each other, that they might readily communicate and have aid in their concerted action ;-forit had been agreed among them to await the retreat of the British, in the hope that they might recover some portion of their plundered crops, and avenge their injuries up on the invaders, with the greatest prospect of success. It was with much restraint, however, that they saw the fruits of their industry thus sud denly withdrawn ; while the soldiers, enjoying the prospect of free living, shouted joyously amidst their plunWer. Separate parlies, regu larly detailed, shot down and butchered the hogs and calves—hunted and caught the poul try of different descriptions, which, on a large plantation, form the luxury of a farmer, and the pride and favorites of the good wife and little ones. In full view of this active scene stood the commander of the British forces—a porily, flo rid, cheerful Englishman—one hand on each side of the doorway of the farm buttle, where the officers were enjoying the abundant pro visions prepared for tile owners of the planta tion and tlieir friends. The soldiery, assisted by dogs, in eager chase of the. poultry, had struck down some bee hives, firmed of hollow gum loes, ranged near the garden 1 fence. The irritable insects dashed after the men, and, at once, the scene became one of uproar, confusion, and lively excitement. The officer laughed heartily at the gestures and outcries of the routed sol diers—'he attention of the guard was drawn to this single point, while at a distance in the fields, the wagons were seen slowly approaching with their cumbrous loads. The owner of the plantation had cautiously approached, under cover, within gun-shot of his house; the rest of his puriv, hi neighbors, with equal care, advanced sufficiently near for the action of tlieir rifles. The distress and an- ger of these men were raised to the highest pitch by the reckless merriment of their ene mies, and, in the midst of the tumult, their feel ings overcame all the bounds of preconcerted prudence. *• Bovs !” cried one of the sturdy farmers, “ I can’t stand this—I take ihc captain. Eve ry one choose his man, and lock to yourselves.” The words were scarcely uitered in a sup pressed tone, but with an appropriate decision of action, when the sight of his rifle was thrown upon the fuil breas; of the laughing English man, who suddenly fell.prostrate from the door posts. As the smoke from the rifles rose; after their sharp and qu ckly repeated reports, the com mander. nine men. and two horses lay dead or wounded on the ground. The trumpets imrnedintely sbunded a recall But hy the nme ihc scattered dragoons had collected, mounted, and formed, a straggling fire, from a diff rent direction, into which the concealed scouts had extended, showed tho un erring aim of each Americm marksman, and increased the confusion of surprise. Perfectly acquainted with every foot of the ground, the Americans constantly changed their position, giving in their fire as they load, ed, so that it appeared to the British they were surrounded by a lurge force. Every preparation for defence, attack, and retreat was made with the discipline of soldiers, but the alternate hilly and sivamp land, and thickets, so completely sheltered the Ameri cans, they set on ilie hounds against a foe scarcely visible, except from tlieir deadly ef fects. The dogs, at first, seemed to fake the track; and were followed by the soidiers. Tbe fore most hound ran close upon the heels of one of the scouts, who had just discharged iiis rifle, and was in full retreat after his companions.— But ns the dog closed with open mouth, he was shot dead with a pistol drawn from the ri fleman’s breast. The next hound stopped at the dead dog, smelt at tho body, gave a whining howl, and the whole pack retreated from the contest. A large number of the dragoons were shot down. The leading horses in ihe wagons were killed before they could ascend the hill. The 'l'oad was blocked up. The soldiers in charge of the wagons cui loose some of the surviving animals and galloped after their retreating com rades. The country people, early advised of the ad vance of the foraging party, mounted their hor* ses, rifle in hand, from every direction ; and, occupying well protected positions along the main road precipitated the retreat of the Brit ish into Charlotte—the survivors swearing “ there was not a bush on the road that did not contain a rebel.” In the grave-yard nt Charlotte, a large mar ble monument is inscribed as “SACRED “ To the memory of Gen. George Graham, who di^d on the 23th of March, 162G, in the sixty-eighth year of his age. “ He lived more than half a century in the vicinity of this place, nnd was a zealous and active defender of his country’s lights in ‘.ho Revolutionary War, and one of the gallant twelve who dared to attack and actually drove four hundred British troops at JNIcIntire’s seven miles north of Charlotte; on the 3d of October; 1780. ‘•George Graham filled many high nnd re sponsible public trusts, the duties of which he discharged with fidelity. He was the people’s friend, not their flatterer; and uniformly en joyed the unlimited confidence and respect of his fallow-cilizens.” A short story with a moral.—A young yan- kee had formed an attachment for a daughier of a rich old fanner, and after agreeing with his “ bonnie lassie,” went to the old fellow to ask his consent, ar.d during the interview, which was an akward one for Jonathan, whittled away at a stick. The old man watch ed the movements of the k ife. at the same time continued to talk upon the prospects of his future son-in-law, as he Supposed, until the stick was dwindled dow n to naught; He then spoke as follows : ‘‘you have fine property, you have steady halms, good enough looking, but you can’t have mv daughter! Had you made something, no maiter uhat, of the slick you liuve whittled away, you could have had her—as it is you cannot. YoUr property will go as the stick did, little by little, until all is gone, and your family reduced to want. I have read your true character, you have my an swer.” Curious Advertisement.—Extract from an old New York Gazette : “ Rund avny or vns stolden or vas strayed mine large pluck horse, about 24 or 15 hands six inches hie—lie has been got four plack legs, two pehind and two pefore—he is plack all over his pody, lie has got some vite spots pon his - pack vere do skin was rub off, but I greesed em, aud de vite spots nre ail plack agen—he trods and kanters and sometimes he vulks and veil he vaiks all his legs and feet goes on von after a nodar—lie has two eyes, ven is put out aud toder is pon de side of his hed, and ven you go toder side lie vont see you—ven ho eats goud deal he has o pig belly—he has a long dnil dat hands down pehind, put I cut it short toder day a> <1 now tis not so long vat it was—he is shoed all round, put his pehont shoes earned ofe, ans now he has got on slieos only pefore—he holts up his head and looks gs- ly, and ven he has beer, frighten, he joonips apout like every ting in de vorld—he will ride mit a saddle or a chase or a kart, or lie vill go by himself without nopody hut a pag on his pack and a pny on it—he is not very olt, and ven he vaiks or runs his lied goes first and his dail stays pehind only ven he gets mad and turns round, and d< n sometimes his dail goes first.
