MU.5 A VW AP "HORSE-SHOE ROBERTSON." teresting Sketch of the Old Hero Made Famous in Story. 'he Pendleton chapter, U. D. C., ted Prof. W. S. Morrison, of mson College, to deliver an ad. as On Memorial Day, May 9th, on the history of "Old Pendleton," d in complying with the invitation gave an instructive address upon e early history of Pendleton dis. ict., which originally included the resent counties of Greenville, Pick ens, Oconee and Anderson. Among the interesting sketches of this sec tion, Prof. Morrison alluded to the well-known historical novel, "Horse Shoe Robertson," written by J. P. Kennedy, Esq., of Maryland, the hero of which was a native of Pendle ton district and lived on Chaunga river for nearly a third of a century. is home is still standing. Prof. orrison read the following extract m an old newspaper, the Flag of Union, published at Tuscaloosa, and dated January 17, 1838: ho has not read Kennedy's do. ful novel of this name, and who as read it would not give an ay's ride to see the venerable hero of the tale of the "Tory doncy," the immortal Horse himself, the exteriminator of Curry" and "Hugh Haber " The venerable patriot bear he familiar sobriquet., and whose Mr. Kennedy has nade as liar in the mouths of American hs as household words, was visit y us, in coipaniky with several ds, one day last week. We found old gentleman on his plantation, ut twelve miflos from this city, as fortably situated with respect to is world's goods as any one could esire to have him. It was gratify ing to us to see him in his old age, :after having served through the whole war of Independence, thus -seated under his own vine and fig itree, with his children around him and with the partner of his early toils and trials still continued to him, enjoying in poace and safety the rich rewards of that ardnous struggle, in the most gloomy and desponding hour of which he was found as ready, as earnest, as zealous, for the cause of liberty, aS when victory perched upon her standard, and the star of the "Tory Ascendency" was for awhile dimmed by defeat, and in which he continued with unshaken faith and constancy until it sank be. low the horizon, never again to rise. The old gentleman gave na a partial history of his Revolutionary adven tures, containinrg muany interesting facts respecting t he dlomination of the Tory plarty in the south during the times of the R?evolut ion, which Mr. Kennedy has niot recorded in his boo0k. But it will chiiefly interest our readIers, or that portion of themn at least to whom the history of the old hero's achievement.s as recorded by Mr. Kennedy is famuiliar, to be assured that the principal inidients therein p)ort rayed are st rictly true. That his escape from Chiarlest on sfter t he capture of thait city, his being entrusted with ai baIter to But hler, the scenie at Wat Adair's, the capture of Butler at.

In the 01(d veteran's lan gnage, "Tiihere is a heap of truth in it, though the writer has mnightily furnished iti up." Th'.' at thie namrues of Butler, Milred, .I,insay, Mary Musgrove, J ohun llamusay, H-ugh HIabershaw, J imc Curry,- and in fact almost every othler used ini thle book, with the e'xceptioni of his owni, are' real suid riot lict itinms. lIis owvn nanie, he inuforumed us, is James; and that lie dlid niot go by the familiar appellat ion by wvhich he is 'now so wvidely kneown until after the wvar, when hte acqjuired it from the form of his pliant ationi in the Horseshoe Bend of the Changa crook, which was bestowed upon him by the legislature of South Carolina in consequence of the services he had rendered during the war. This estate, we understood him to say, he still owned. He was born, he says, in 1759, and entered the army in his seven teenth year. Before the close of the war, says he commanded a troop of horses, so that his military title is that of Capt. Horseshoe. Although in infirm health, lie bears evident marks of having been a man of great personal strength and activity. He is now afflicted with a troublesome cough, which, in the natural course of events, must in a few years, wear I out his aged frame. Yet, notwith- I standing his eye still sparkles with tho fire of youth, as he recounts the stirring and thrill,g incidents.of the war, and that sly, quiet humor, I so well described by Konnedy, may still be seen playing around his mouth as one calls to his recollec tions any of the pranks lie was wont I to play upon any of "Tory vag grants" as he very properly styles them. The old gentleman received us with warm cordiality an(d hos pitality, and after partaking of the I bounties of his board and spending F a night under his hospitable roof, we took leave of him, sincerely wishing him many years of the peaceful on joyment of that liberty which lie fought so long and so bravely to achieve. It will not be uninterest ing, we hope, to remark that the old hero still considers himself a soldier, though the nature of his warfare is changed. He is now as zealous a promoter of the Redeemer's cause as lie once was in securing the inde pendence. of his country. Since the above was in typo we have heard of the death of the aged partner of this venerable patriot. An obituary notice will be found in anothel column. Truly in friendship, Signed: Thomas P. Clinton. Within a few weeks after the visit thus described the old soldier met "the last enemy that shall bo, over come." His grave is near the Black Warrior river, a few miles from Ttscaloosa, Ala , and thn in scription on the marble marking his last resting place is: "Major James Robertson, a nati-ie of South Carolina, died April 26, 1838, aged 79 years, and was buried here. "ell known as Horseshoe Rob ertsoni he earned a just fame in the war for independence in which he was eminent in courage, patriotism and suffering. He lived fifty-six years with his worthy partner, use ful and respected, and died in hopes of a blissful immortality.

Clay knew his man and at onco pulled out his bowie knife. Here is his tiecount of the controversy that followed: "Before I could strike I was seized from behind and borne by force about fifteen feet from Brown, who, being now armed with a Colt's re volver, cried: 'Clear the way and lot me kill the damned rascal.' Tho way was speedily cleared, and I stood isolated from the crowd. Now, as Brown had his pistol bearing on me, I had either to run or advance. So, turning my left side toward him, with my loft arm covering it, so as to protect it to that extont, I ad vanced rapidly on him, knife in hand. Seeing I was coming, he know very well that nothing but a sudden and fatal shot could save him. So ho held his fire, and taking deliberato aim just as I Wias within arm's roach he fired at my heart. I camv down upon his head with a tremendous blow, which would have split opn an ordinary skull, but Brown's was as thick as that of an African. Tho blow laid his skull open about. three inches to the brain, indenting it., bit, not breaking tho textures; but, it so stunned him that ho was no more able to fire, and feebly attempted to soize me. Iis fellow conspirators now grasped me and hold both arms above my elbows, which only allowed me to strike with the foroarm as Brown advanced uipon me. I was also struck with hickory sticks and c-- 'rs. But fin,ling I was likely to ge. loose, they throw Brown over the stone fence, which, only two foot high on our side, was sovoni or eight on the lower side. So Brown had a terrible fall, which ended tho contest. Raising my bloody knife, I said: 'I repent that the statement made by the speaker before Brown's assmilt has been proven a falsehood, and I stand ready to defend the truth.' Bnt, neither the speakor of the day nor any of the conspiratorm taking up my challenge, some of my friends, recovering from their lethargy, took me by the arm to the dwelling house, and, on opening my vest aid shirt bosom, found only a red spot over my heart, but no wound. On ox amination it was found that the ball as I pulled up the scabbard of Iy bowie knife, in drawing the blade, had entered the leather near tho point, which was lined with silver, and was there lodged." Brown's skull was cut to the brain in several places, one ear was slit nearly off, one eye gouged1 out and he had other woands. It is a plens. nrc to remember that when (Gon. Clay was tried for mayhem, LIonry Clay defending him, Brown was the chief witness for tile defence and testilied that there was a conspiracy between himself and four others to b)ring on the aifray.

In 1869 a man who gave his name as Madion M. Tyler, and said he was front Brooklyn, N.
