HORSE-SHOE ROBINSON A TALE OF THE TORY ASCENDENCY BY JOHN P. KENNEDY) CHAPTER XLIX. Mildred Arrives at the Ter m of Her Journey.—The Reader Favor ed With a Glimpse 0 f a Des- tinguished Personage. Cornwallis, after the battle of Cam- dea. turned his thoughts to the dili- geat prosecution of his conquests. Tie Invasion of North Carolina and Vtargtol& was a purpose to which he had looked, from the commencement of this campaign, and he now, accord- iagly, made every preparation for the speedy advance of his army. The sickness of a portion of his troops aad the want of supplies rendered s«me delay inevitable, and this inter val was employed in more fully or ganizing tb r civil government of the conquered province, and in strengthen ing his frontier defences, by detach ing considerable parties of men towards the mountains. The largest •f these detachments was sent to re inforce Ferguson, to whom had been confided the operations upon the northwestern border. The chronicles of the time inform us that the British general lay at Camden until the 8th of September, at which date he set forward towards North Carolina. His movement was slow and cautious, and for some time, bis headquarters were established at the "Wlaxhaws, a position directly up on the border of the province about t<> be invaded. At this post our story now finds him, the periou being some where about the commencement of the last quarter of the month. A melancholy train of circum stances had followed the fight at Cam den, and had embittered the feelings of the contending parties against each other to an unusual degree of exas peration. The most prominent of these topics of anger was the unjust and severe construction which the British authorities had given to the obligations which were supposed to affect such of the inhabitants of South Carolina, as had. after the capi tulation of Charleston, surrendered themselves ns prisoners on parole, or received protections from the govern ment. A proclamation, issued by Sir Henry Clinton in June, annulled the paroles, and ordered all who had ob tained them to render military ser vice, as subjects of the king. This order, which the prisoners, as well as those who had obtained protect ion. held to be a di.- olotion of their contract with the new government, vi is disobeyed by a large number of th inhabit nts. many of whom had, immediately after the proclamation, joined the America’ Cornwallis permitted himself, on this occasion, to be swayed by senti ments unworthy of the inhabitants ments unworthy of the character generally imputed to him. Many of the liberal inhabitants were found in the ranks of Gates at Camden, and several were made piisoners on the field. These latter, by the orders of the British general, were hung almost without the form of an inquiry; and it may well be sup posed that in the heat of war and fer ment of passion, such acts of rigor, deh ided on such light grounds, were met on the opposite side by a severe retribution. Almost every day, during the Brit ish commander’s advance, some of the luckless citizens of the province whom this harsh construction of duty af fected, were brought into the camp of the invaders, and the soldiery had grow., horribly familiar with the fre quent military executions that en sued. It .was in the engrossment of the occupations and cares presented in this brief reference to the history of the time, that I have now to intro duce my readers to Cornwall!*. He had resolved to move forward or his campaign. Orders were issu 'd to prepare for the march, and the general had announced bis determina tion to review the troops before they broke ground. \ beautiful, bright, and cool autumnal morning shone up on the wide plain where an army of between two and three thousand men wag drawn out in line. The tents of the recent encampment had already been struck, and a long array of baggage-wagons were now upon the high-road, slowly moving to a point assigned them in the route of the march. Cornwallis, attended by s. ‘-core of ofliers, still occupied a small f r n bor. «■ which had lately been hk- qua if:-'. A numb'r of ‘sad- dle-horti in the charge of their grooms, and fully equipped for ser vice. were to be seen in the neigh borhood of the door; and the princi pal apartment of the house showed that some of the loiterers of the com pany were yet engaged in despatch ing the morning meal. The afdes-de- camp were seen speeding between the army and the general, with that important and neck-endangering haste which characterizes the tribe of these functionaries; and almost momen- taritly a courier arrived, bearing some message of interest to the com mander-in-chief. Cornwallis himself sat in an inner room, busily engaged with one of his principal officers in inspecting some documents regarding the detail of his force. Apart from them, stood, with hat in hand and in humble silence, a young ensign of infantry. “Your name, sir?’’ said Cornwallis, as he threw aside the paper which he had been perusing, and now address ed himself to the young officer. “Ensign Talbot, of the thiry-third Foot." replied the young man; “I have come by the order of the ad- i jutant-general to inform your lord- ship that I have just returned to my regiment, having lately been captured I by the enemy while marching with the third convey of the Camden prisoners to Charleston.” “Ha; you were of that party! What was the number of prisoners you bad in charge?” “One hundred nn ] fifty, so please your lordship ” , “They were captured”— “On Santee, by the rebels Marion and Horry.’* interrupted the ensign. “I have been in the custody of the rebels for a week, but contrived, a few days since, to make my escape.” “Where found the rebels men to master you?” “Even from the country through which we journeyed,” replied the en sign. “The beggarly runagates! Who can blame us. Major M’Arthur,” said the general, appealing to the officer by his side, with an interest that obvious ly spoke the contest in bis own mind in regard to the justice of the daily executions which be had sanctioned: “who can blame us for hanging up these recreants for their violated faith, with such thick perfidy before our eyes This Santee district, to a man, had given their paroles and taken my provocation; and. now. the first chance they have to play me a trick, they are up and at work, attacking our feeble escorts that should, in their sickly state, have rather looked to them for a’d. I ’vill carry out the work; by mv sword, it shall go on sternly. Enough, En sign. back to your companv.” he said, bowing to the young officer, who at ence left the room. “What is your lordship’s pleasure regarding this Adam Cusack?” in quired M’Arthur. “Oh, aye* I had well nigh forgot ten that man. He was taken.

Also one undivided half inter A number of statements from promi nent people located in various cities where the widespread discussion over L. T. Cooper’s new theory regarding the human stomach has receLtly waged, give an idea of the intense in terest the young man has aroused dur ing the past year. The statements are as follows: Mr. C. D. Mitchell, of 2412 Avenue C, LTInaingham, Ala., his this to say with regard to his belief in Cooper's medicine: “I have been troubled with, indigestion and stomach trouble for the jnrt year, i had heartburn, bloat ing after eating, gas on stomach and bowels, palpitation of the heart, pain in the lower part of my back, and various other symptoms, and was a victim of much distress. I tried many rc inedies, but received little or no benefit from them. I was advised to try the Cooper preparations, and did :o. In one week’s time I was im- :oved wonderfully—the first relief I ..aJ been able to obtain. Mr. Cooper’s medicine does all he claims for it.” Mr. J. O. Spradling, of 705 South Tejon Street, Colorado Springs, Colo., says: “I was troubled with indigestion for two years. It caused me a great d'-al of suffering and misery. I did rot dare to eat meat at all, and every thing I did eat soured on my stomach. I tried various remedies, but found no relief. Three months ago I started taking Cooper’s New Discovery, and after using the contents of three bot tles I was entirely cured. I can now eat and relish anything that my appe tite craves. The New Discovery is truly a great stomach medicine.” Mr. Wm. Codier, of 408 Graves Street, Syracuse, N.
