BURDENS LUTED.
Comfort one another.
For the way is often dreary,
And the feet are often weary,
And the heart is very sad.
There is a heavy burden bearing.
When it seems that none are earing.
And we half forget that ever we were glad.
Comfort one another
Wifh the hand-clasp close and tender.
With the sweetness love can render,
And the looks of fricndlT eves.
Ik) not wait with trace unspoken.

North Carolina Generals and the
Wars in Which They Participated.
The following list of Generals
whom ISorth Carolina has furnish
ed, and of the various wars through
which she has passed, may men
preservation: -
BEFORE THE REVOLUTION.!
Before the Revolution, North
Carolina, owing to the small num
ber of troops she could furnish,
had no Generals except those of
the militia. She had a severe In
dian war at home In 1711-13, and
some Indian troubles later of minor
importance. 1
In 1715 she sent her first expedi
tion beyond the State, being horse
and foot soldiers under Col. Mau
rice .Moore, to aid South Carolina
against the Yemassee Indians. In
1740 she sent four companies of
100 men each in the only expedi
tion soldiers from this country
have ever made beyond this Conti
nent, to Carthagena, South Amer
ica. James Innes, (afterwards
Colonel in the French wars,;
Robert llalton and Coltrane were
three of the captains. In the same
year, 1740, 6he sent troops in the
expedition under . Ugletnorpe
against St. Augustine, Florida,
then held by the Spanish. In the
atter expedition her troops, exclu
sive of the company of Highland
ers, probably from near Fayette-
ville, (then Cross .Creeks,) under
Capt. Mclntosh.Q were . combined
with the Virginia and South Car
olina troops into a regiment com
manded bv Van Derdussen. The
company of Highlanders were es
pecially exposed and were cut off
almost to a man at Fort Moosa.
in the rrench war, she sent in
1775, prior to Braddock's defeat, a
regiment to Winchester, Va., under
command of Col. James Innes, who
took the command, outranking Col
Ueorge Washington, who com
manded the Virginia forces. Her
troops, who fought the battle of
Alamance against the Regulators,
May 16tb, 1771, were detachments
of militia commanded by their Col
onels under Governor Tryon, who
was in chier command. Gen.
Hugh Wad dell, who had seen some
service against the French and In
dians in a lower rank, commanded
some 300 militia across the Yad
kin, but did not reach the battle
field, e
IN TIIE REVOLUTION, 1775-83.
North Carolina had. in the "Con
tinental line:" One Major Gen
eral, Robert Howe; four Brigadier
Generals: 1, James Moore, died in
service in Februrary, 1777; 2,
Francis Nash, killed at German
town, October, 1777; 3, Jetbro,
Sumner;' 4, James Hogan, died a
prisoner of war at Charleston, S.
C. January 4th, 1781.
Besides these, who were regular
or Continental officers, the follow
ing Generals of militia commanded
troops in action:
General John Ashe, Briar Creek,
Ga., March, 1779.
General Richard Caswell, at
Camden, S. C, August, 1780.
General Isaac Gregory, at Cam
den, S. C, August, 1780, where he
was wounded, and the conduct of
his men highly- praised by the
British. f
General Griffith Rutherford, at
Stono, June, 1779, and at Camden,
S. C, August, 1780,-where he was
wounded and captured, j
General William Lee Davidson,
killed at Cowan's Ford, October,
1780. He had been a Lieutenant
Colonel in the Continental line.)
General John Butler, at Stono,
June 20th, 1779, at Camden, Au
gust 16th, 1780, and at Guilford
Gourt House, March 15th, 1781.
General William Eaton, at Guil
ford Court House, March 15, 1781.
North Carolina furnished ten
regiments of 'regulars to the Con
tinental line, one battery of artil-
lerv fKinesbury's), andHhreecom-
nnnin of cavalrv. Besides thisJ
her militia were frequently ordered
out on "tours of duty. ' Alone and
unaided they won the brilliant vic
tories at Moore's Creek, Ramseur's
Mill and King's Mountain, ana
helned the regular loe the bat
tles of Camden and Guilford Court
House. They also shared in the
battles of Stono, Briar Creek, Cow-
pent, and the surrender at Charles
ton. ; The North; Carolina Con
tinentals rendered efficient service
at Brandywine, Germantown. Mon
mouth, Eutaw, at the sieges of
Charleston and Savannah, and at
other battles, and formed part of
the garrison of West Point, where
our Gen. Howe succeeded Arnold
in command, after the treason and
flight of the latter !
