From tlie Petersburg Intelligencer. A REMINISCENCE OF TARLETON. During a late trip lo Carolina, we acciden tally became acquainted with tho following nnecdoto, which, as it serves further to illus trate tho indomitable character of ono who, blending the tenacity of tho leech with the fe rocity of the tiger, formed one of the bloodiest scourges of our young and growing indepen dence, may not prove altogether without in terest to some of our readers. Sometime during "the year of '81, Lord Cornwall is, being then iu want of recruits, had made the town of Hillsborough, N. C, his head quarters, for tho doublo purpose of keeping in subjection that turbulent little wasp's nest, and of extending, if possible, the influence of the Crown throughout the sur rounding country. Among others who had been sent out to encourage tho friendly and overawe the disaffected, was Col. Tarleton, his Lordship's right hand man, when aught of daring or deviltry was to bo perpetrated. Tarleton, in performance of the duty as signed to him, had crossed the Haw River, and encamped himself some miles to the westward of that stream, from which position he was daily sending proclamations in every direction, with proffers of the kindest consid eration to all who would pledge their allegiance and aid to the arms of the King, coupled with threats of the direst vengeanco against all those who refused to acknowledge his rightful supremacy. While these things were rrainrr o u on, tho American troops had not been altogether idle; and soon- after the departure of Tarleton, in formation was brought to Lord Comwallis, that Green, who had been driven across the Dan into Virginia, was making preparations to recross that stream, and thai Lee, with his fiery Legiou, was even then scouring the in termediate country and cutting off tho Tory detachments which were marching to join the main army. No time wa? to be lost in apprising Tarle ton of these facts. A trusty messenger was forthwith procured, to whom the forest path was as familiar as the beaten highway ; and so soon as night had spread her dusky pall o'er chambered case and. outlaying patroi, ho was despatched, with frequent urgings to un tiring haste, with orders for Tarlcton's im mediate return. The early morn had just begun to dapple with its struggling beams the Eastern sky when a solitary horsemen was seen to emerge from tho deep shadows of the forest, and to urge his drooping and draggled steed towards the nearest outposts of the British encamp ment. But showed evident sigus of a rugged road, through tangled thicket aud deep mor ass, while the spent look of the weary horse, and the patched lip and bloodshot eye of the , rider, told that they had not tarried by the way. That horseman was the messenger of Cornwallis, and the narrator in after days of 4he following incident : As soon (says tho old Tory) as I camo in view of tho British lines, I hastened to de liver myself up to the nearest patrol, inform ing him that I was bearer of important de spatches from Lord Cornwallis to Col. Tarle ton. The guard was immediately called out, the commander of which, taUiug me in charge, carried me at once to Tarleton's marque. A servaiu "informed him of my arrival, and re turned immediately with the answer that his master would see me after a while, and that iu the mean time 1 was to await his pleasure where I then was. The servant was a grave and sedate looking Englishman, between 30 and 60 years'of age, and informed mo that he haq), known Col. Tarleton from his earliest youth) having lived for many years in the family of his father, a worthy clergyman, at whose particular requost ho had followed the Colonel to this '-country, with the view that, if overtaken by disease, and suffering by his headlong career, he might have some one near him who knew him ere the pranksome mischief of the boy had hardened into the sterner vices of the man. " He was always a wild blade, friend," said the old man, " and many a heart-ache has he given us all, but he'll mend in time, I hope." Just then, my atten tion was attracted by tho violent pluugings of a horse which two stout grooms were endeav oring to lead towards the spot where we were standing. He was a large and powerful brute beautifully formed, and black as a crow ; with an eye that seemed actually? to blaze with rage at the restraint that was put upon him. His progress was oue continued bound, at times swinging the grooms clear from the earth, as lightly as though they were tassels hung to the huge Spanish bit, so that with difficulty they escaped being trampled under foot. I asked tho meaning of the scene, and was informed that the horse was one that Tarleton had heard of as being a magnificent animal, but one altogether unmanageable ; and so delighted was he with the description, that he sent all tho way down into Moore county, where his d'.vner resided, and purchased him at the ex travagant price of one hundred guineas; and that moreover, he was about to ride him that morning. ' Uido him," said I, " why oue had as well try to back a streak of lightning! the mad brute will certainly be the death of him !" " Never fear for him," said my com panion, "his time has not come yet." By (his timo the horso had been brought up to where we weie; tho curtain of the marque, was pushed aside, and my attention was drawn from the savage stud to rivet itself upon his dauntless rider. And a picture of a man he was. Rather below the middle height, and with a face that was almost effeminately beau tiful, Tarleton possessed a form that was a perfect model of manly strength and vigor. Without a particle of superfluous flesh, his rouuded limbs aud full broad chest, seemed moulded from iron, yet at the same time dis playing'all tho elasticity which usually accom panies clegauce of proportion. His dress (strange as it may appear) was a jacket and breeches of white linen, fitted to his form with the utmost exactness. Boots of russet leather were half way up the leg, the broad tops of which were turned down, and the heels gar nished with spurs of an immense size and length of rowel. On his head was a low crowned hat curiously formed from the snow white feathers of the swan; and in his hand he carried a heavy scourge, with shot well twisted into its knotted lash. After looking around for a moment or two, as though to command (he attention of all, he advanced to the side of the horse, and disdaining the use of the stirrup, with ono bound threw himself into the saddle, at tho samo time calling on tho grooms to let him go. For an instant, the animal seemed paralyzed ; then, with a perfect yell of rage, bounded into the air like a stricken deer. The struggle for the mastery had commenc ed bound succeeded bound with the rapidi ty of thought; every device which its animal instinct could teach was resorted to by the maddened brute to shake off its unwelcome burthen but in vain. Its ruthless rider proved irresistible and, clinging like fate it self, plied the scourge and rowel like a fiend. The punishment was too severe to be long withstood, and at length, after a succession of frantic efforts, the tortured animal with a scream of agony, leaped upon the plain and flew across it with the speed on an arrow. The ground upon which Tarleton had pitched his camp was an almost perfectly level plaiu, something more than half a mile in circum ference. Around this, after getting him under way. he continued to urge his furious steed, amid the raptures and shouts of tho admiring sol diery, plying the whip and spur at every leap, until wearied and worn down with its prodi gious efforts, tho tired creature discontinued all exertion, save that to which it was urged by its merciless rider. At length, exhausted from tho conflict, Tarleton drew up before his tent and threw himself from his saddle. Tho horse com pletely subdued, and at tho word of command, followed him round like a dog. The victory was complete. His eye of fire was dim and lustreless drops of agony fell from his droop ing front, while from his laboring and man gled sides the mingled blood and foam pour ed in a thick and clotted stream. Tarleton himself was pale as death, and as soon as he was satisfied of his success, retired and threw himself on his couch. In a short time I was called into his presence and delivered my de spatches. Immediate orders were issued to make preparation for a return to Hillsborough, so soon as all the scouts come in ; aud the next morning early found us again beyond the Haw River and in good time too, for as the last files were emerging from tho stream, the advance of Lee's Legion appeared on the opposite bank, and, with a shout of disappoint ed rage, poured a volley into the ranks of the the retreating columns." I have witnessed many stirring scenes, said the old man, both during the Revolution and since, but never 6av I one half so excit ing as the strife between the savage man aud the savage horse. A beggar asked a bishop for a' penny the bishop refused. He then asked for his bless ing, which tho bishop very readily con sented to accord. The beggar reflected a moment, and concluded he would not take it, for,' said he, if it wero worth a penny, you would not give it me.' Newspapers. A cotemporary soys : The newspaper may be destroyed at niht : it may light a cigar, or it may curl a lady's hair ; but the thoughts that are in its columns may influence teu thousaud for good, and produce effects which volumes of essays, ser mons and narratives-, could never produce, and especially where they never could reach." To this another journal, edited by a bachelor of course, adds the following ihapsody : " The very thought of one's lucubrations nest ling down at night among the ringlets of a sweet girl, keeping watch over her midnight slumbers, as well as curling her hair, is enough to iufuso poetry into the pen, aud make the iuk it traces along the sheet fragrant with sentiment-" The mysterious brass pirates origin ft . OF THE ABORIGINES OF AMERICA.. tUT readers, doubtless, remember seeing some time since a Moating- paragraph, stating tnat some brass plates, inscribed with hieroglyphic characters, bad been found in a mound, somewhere in Illinois. On the minds of tho many, no doubt, it made no serious im pression. It seems, however, that this dis covery may be the one link wanting to con nect the Aborigines of America with their Asiatic ancestors ! A geutlemau, recently from Illinois, a lew days siuce called upon us, bringing with him aac similie of these plates, with an authentic account of their dis covery. There were six brass plates, bell shaped, and some three inches long, with hieroglyphic writing upon them, found in a mound of Illinois iu this manner : The mound is near Kindeihook, Pike county, and was opened, we suppose, from curiosity. Some boues were found, and these so de composed, that they mouldered away. Below, were found these plates, hung in an iron ring. But this ring was so oxydized, that it too, fell to nieces, aud was reduced to rust. The brass plates remained, aud contained what seemed to be writing, descriptive of the i i- i r.i i persons wtio were eutomoeu, or oi me eveuis meant to be commemorated. Now, the first question undoubtedly Hi- are these facts authentic? Were the plates so found? In such a place, aud with these impressions? The paper which contains the fat, similies. contains also the certificate of the persou who found them, and of twelve other persons, who, we are told, are farmers- of tho neighborhood, and who describe the manneriiaFwhich the digging was made, and the manner in which the pl-ttes were discov ered. We suppose the facts are so, and at all events this very certificate affords the means - - : .t or ascertaining, uy exaunuing persons iu me neighborhood. The next question is, what arc these cha racters : Are they like any other .characters in the wofld? We are told (without pretend ing to know) that some of these, characters are the ancient Chinese! This is a fact capable of beiug perfectly ascertained. Sup pose it be so. That plates deposited in i mound of the West contained ancient (not modern) Chinese characters, used la Asja three thousand years since; and that these had been so long buried iu the earth that the iron ring which bound them had rusted awav what follows? It seems to us that it would carry with it the inevitable conclusion (a conclusion which all a priori reasoning ar rives at) that the aborigines of this couutry came over from the Chinese part of Asia, aud instead of progressing through the country, from north to south, erected these tnouud and fortifications finally settling in Mexico, where tho Spaniards fouud ihem semi-civil ized, with all the characteristics of the genera Asiatic family. If the facts stated above be authenticated, this conclusion is inevitable and tho lonr deficient link ot evidence is found. Cincinnati Chronicle. ship, which the inhabitants were obliged to shoot at, every feast day, under the penalty of one half-penny when they should omit this ex ercise. During the reign of Henry VIII several statutes were made for the promotion of Archery. An act of Parliament, in Eliza beth's reign, regulated the price of bows. Charles I. is said to have been an Archer ; and, in the eighth year of his reign, he issued a commission to prevent the fields near Lon don being so enclosed as "to interrupt the necessary and profitable exercise of shooting.' So lately as the year 1753, targets were erect ed in the Finsbury fields, during the Easter and Whitsuntide holidays, when the best shooter was styled "Captain" for the ensuing year, and the second, "Lieutenant." Edward V I, m his journal, says, that one hundred Ar chers of his guard, shot before him, two ar rows each, and afterward, altogether; aid that they shot at au inch board, which some pierced quite through with the heads of their arrows, the board beiug well seasoned timber. TALMUDIC ALLEGORY, The Child of Mercy. "Let us make man," said the Creator, and myriads of angelic beings listened to his voice create him," spoke the angel "Do not justice. "He will wrong his brethren, injure and op press the weak, and cruelly ill-treat the feeble "Do not create him, spoke the angel of peace "He will manure the earth with human blood The first-boru of his race will be an assas sin, and murder his own brother.'' "He will desecrate thv sanctuary with his lies," said the angel of truth, "and though thou stampest on his countenance thine own image, the seal of truth, yet will falsehood and deceit prevail in his voice." "Create him not, he will rebel against thee, and abuse the freedom which thou bestowest on him," exclaimed the chorus of assembled angels. Still they spoke, when Charity, the young est and best beloved of the Eternal's creation approached his throne, and kuelt before him "Create bin), Father," she prayed, "in thine own image, let him be the beloved ot thy good ness. When all thy servants forsake him, will seek and lovingly assist him. His very errors will I turn to his good. I will fill the breast of the weak with benevolence, and render him merciful towards those who are weaker than he. If he depart from peace and truth, if he offend justice and equity, I will still be with him, and the consequences of his own errors shall chasten his heart, and purify him in penitence and love. The universal Father listened to her voice, and created mau a weak and erring being. But even in his errors, a pupil of Divine goodness, a child of mercy, love and charity, which never forsakes him, and still strives to ameud him. Remember thy origin, O ! man, when thou a:t cruel and unjust. Of all the divine at tributes, charity alone stood forth to plead that existence bo granted to thee, mercy and love have fostered thee. Then remember, be just, be merciful. ARCHERY. In England, Archery was greatly encouraged in former times, and many statutes were made for its regulation. The Artillery Company of London, though they have long disused the weapon, are the re mains of the ancieut fraternity of Bowmen or Archers. As to the time when shooting with the long bow first began amongst tho English, there appears no certain account. Richard I. was killed by an arrow, in 1199 ; after this time, we read nothing of Archery, till that of Edward III. when an order was issued to the sheriffs of most of English coun ties, to provide five hundred white bows, aud five hundred bundles of atrows, for the then intended war against Franco. The famous battle of Cressy was fought four years after ward, in which, it is stated, that we had about two thousand archers, opposed to about the same number of French. In the fifth year of the reign of Edward IV. an act was passed, that every Englishman and Irishman dwell ing with Englishmen, should have an Eng lish bow of his own height, which is directed to be made of yew, wych, hazel, ash, or aw burne, or any other reasonable tree, according to their power. The next chapter also direct- I cd that butts should be made in every town- Tappinc. After a consultation, several physiciaus decided that a dropsical patient should be "tapped." Upon hearing of the decision of the doctors, a son of the sick man approached him aud exclaimed, "Father don't submit to the operation, for there uever was any thing tapped iu our house that lasted more than a week." IN DEFINITIONS OF TERMS, &c. THE ARTS AND SCIENCES. A Science is a svstcm of any branch of knowledge, comprehending its doctrine, rea son, and theory ; without any immediate ap plication of it to the uses of life. An art is a collection of rules and precepts for doing-a thing with certaiutv, ease, and accuracy. science is Knowledge in theory: Art is knowledge in practice. Botany is a scieuce; Gardening an art. The arts are divided into Liberal and Me chanical. rii m i a a l he liberal Arts are those that are inge nious, aud cultivated without any immediate regard to the profit arising from them ; as poetry, music, and painting; rhetoric, gram mar and sculpture. The Mechanic Arts are those wherein the hand and body are concerned more than the mind, aud which are cultivated for the sake o the profit arising from them : as cabinet mak ing, ship-building, turnery, weaving, mason ry, and the like ; popularly known by the name of T. rades. The principal Sciences are theology, phi losophy, aud jurisprudence , physic, Rhetoric, grammar, poetry, and mathematics. l neology is the science which instructs us in the knowlege of God, and Divine things, and teaches us the manner in which we should serve our Creator. Religion is that worship and homage which mau owes to God, as his Creator, Preserver, and Redeemer. Religion is founded on the existence of s Sepreme Being, who requires (he love, ser vice, and adoration of his creatures. Philosophy, properly speaking, is tht Science of Wisdom ; or, it is .the employ ment of the human mind in examining aud explaining the nature, modifications and ef fects of matter, the principles of morality, thi operations ot reason, and the properties ol abstract or immaterial things. This last, called metaphysics. Physics, or Natural Philosophy, tieat o the nature or modification of matter, and ex plain the various phenomena of tho materia world. Mechauics is a science which considers motion and moving bodies, their nature and laws, with the effect of mechanic powers and their various combinations, in the construc tion of machines or engines. Hydrostatics is that science which trealsof the weight and action of fluids. Hydraulics teach us how to estimate the swiftness and force of fluids in motion. All water works, mills, pumps, &c. come under notice of hydraulics. Pneumatics treat of the mechanical proper ties of elastic or serial fluids : such as their weight, deusity, compressibility, and elasti city. Electricity, or the electric fluid, is an ex ceedingly subtile fire which pervades all na ture, and produces the most singular and ex traordinary phenomena. The Aurora Borealis is an extraordinary, luminous meteor, showing itself in the night after a dry season, chiefly in the northern parts of the atmosphere ; and, hence, they commonly give it the name of northern lights, or streamers. Agricultural. T is ORNITHOLOGY & ENTOMOLOGY. Extracts from Dr. Bachmni's Essay on Or nithology and Entomology. ) Nature has wisely provided that one race of animals should serve as a check upon the too rapid increase of others. This uniform ity is seen in every department of her works. The bird is a blessing to the husbandman by destroying the reptiles and insects, which would otherwise be an anuoyance to him, and by ridding the earth of a superabundance of the seeds of weeds aud grasses. The Stork iu Holland, the Turkey Vulture in Carolina, and the Rocks of England, are familiar in stances where mau has acknowledged the benefits derived from some of the species ; and the boxes provided for tho Purple Martin, and the calabashes for the house Wren, all go to testify that the farmer is not wholly un mindful of the benefits he derives from some of the feathered race. I would we could say this of many other species, that have been either neglected or misrepresented. So ig norant are our culturists of Ornithology, that they know not what birds should be destroyed as nuisances, or preserved as benefactors. Old Kalm tells us a story that will bear fre quent repetition ; that in Virginia, in his day, a bounty was given for the destruction of the lttle Crow, meaning, no doubt, some species of what are usually called Black birds, of wnicn mere is a considerable number of dif ferent Genera and habits, a few doing some injury to the corn, but the great majority, the Cow bird, (Leterus pecoris,) especially, be- ing decidedly neuencial to the farmer : but they were destroyed, (of how many species mere was no ornithologist to tell,) and the consequence was that such was the increase of destructive insects, that they, after a great expenditure of money would have brought f 11 m- DacK ine murdered duos at any price, in the days of our forefathers, a Governor of New England offered threepeuce a head for the Purple grackle, but it is said the iusects mul tiplied so rapidly, that the herbage was de stroyed and the inhabitants were obliged to import bay from Pennsylvania and Englaud. In fact a single bird of this species, by do- stroying the grubs that feed on tho young corn, saves more than would feed an hundred Grackles for a whole year. Even our Hawks, against which the woild has declared an exterminating war, do not deserve to be be indiscriminately denounced, inasmuch as a considerable number of the species are not only harmless, but beneficial to us. Four species that visit Carolina, feed on insects, one on fish, one on serpents, and one on frogs aud lizzards. " I have made a good day's work (said a planter to me,) for after watching and crawling nearly all day I have shot these two Hawks, which is as good as a dozen fowls saved." I thought he looked a little disconserted, when I informed him that he had killed a pair of his best friends, the Mississippi Kite, a species which feeds alone on insects, and is so little carniverous that it would uot even pounce on a sparrow. Some of our Owls feed exclusively on mice, others on small birds ; and, of all our Southern spe cies, the great horned, or Virginia owl, is the only oue which is injurious to our poultry, and this is exceedingly rare. Wc have two spe cies of Crow, on our seaboard, one of which, aud the rarest, is principally injurious to corn, the other, feeding on worms, berries and fish, is comparatively harmless, yet they are sel dom known as distinct, by the farmer, who denounces vengeance indiscriminately a gainst friend and foe. We have, in Carolina, about 250 of tho 500 species of American birds,' found North of Mexico, the majority of which are migratory ; but a large minority either remain with us some time during the spring and summer, or arc permanent residents; of all this number, we have only about a dozen xpecies, that can, by any possibility, be regarded as decidedly injurious to the planter. All our Thrushes and Orioles, our Fly Catchers and Warblers, arc useful aids in destroying worms and in sects. The tyrant Fly catcher, or Bee bird, is destroyed by our American youths, (who ap pear to have the organ of destructiveness largely developed) because he is said to kill bees. It is true he may kill the bee that falls in his way, but he makes amends by destroying thousands of noxious insects; and is, moreover, a great protection to the poultry yard, for he never suffers a Hawk to come within a quarter of a mile of his nest makes war against the Crow aud Vulture, aud even pounces on the back of the Eagle, ihe emblem of our pride aud glory. The whole tribe of Warblers., feed on ratterpillars nud worms, each individual consuming several hundreds in a day. During the lust spring, 1 had a large bed of cabbages and cauliflowers, which were so infested by the small green cabbage worm, that their leaves were perforated like a honey comb, aud 1 was obliged to have the w.rms picked every morning, amounting ofleu to a tea-cup full. About ihi time I ob served a nest of (he Orchard Oriole, iu a gar den adjacent to mine; (he old biids found their way into my cabbage yard, and so thoroughly kept down the. worms for three weeks, thai they proved better scavengers than my servants, aud saved us further labor during that time. But the nest was discover ed by the little lads of the neighborhood, who seized on the young, and caught the old in a trap cage, and now the cabbage worm ienp peaied, aud remained' a pes-t during the whole summer. The countless millions of sparrows that visit us in winter, merit our protection and gratitude, on account of their devouring ihe seeds and grasses that would otherwise overrun our fields ; and I eveu doubt whether our rice biid, whose deli.-.ious flesh should disarm our hatred against it, ou account of the depredations it commits on our large crops of rice, does uot, in another particular, make amends for its hasty autumnal meal by re turning to the same fields ou the following spring in its harlequin dress, to pick up the scattered grains of rice left on the ground, aud thus saves in part at least the labor of picking out the stems of volunteer or red rice. ln the State of New York, the following plan has been successfully adopted for thiity years, in preventing the crows from pulling up lh newly planted Indian corn. Boiling water is first poured on the corn, in sufficient quantities to fill the vessel in which it is placed. When the water has stood on a few hours, to become perfectly cool, it is poured off and a half pint of boiling coal, tar to every bushel of com is poured ou the seed, which is carefully stirred until every grain is covered with a thin coating of tar. It is theu rolled iu Gypsum, which is used as a valuable manure, but is of no particular use in keeping off the crows. The hot water does not ef fect the vitality of the grain, on the contrary it hastens its germinative powers. When th is plan was first adopted in the Northern States, ou a few of the farms it did not im mediately answer the expectations of the farmer,! inasmuch, as the fields were visited by a succession of crows, aud the new com ers were all obliged to submit to a tarred mouth, before they could be induced to de sist, and their thievish propensities were en couraged by other fields of untarred corn. But since the practice has become universal, the crow-minder has been found to be super fluous. A few of our Carolina planters, have within the last few years, adopted this plan, adding saltpetre to the hot water, omitting, I regret to say, the Gypsum, aud they speak favorably ot it. I have no doubt were it to become general, it would be equally efficacious. TO t AMIlIES & INVALIDS; The fallowiae dies may be foand at ta viOace oreB and sooa at ererr country store itt the state.
