ton. TH AMERICAN.
Revisit to Snnliury.
Ma. EoiTon : The sentiments conveyed in the
following lines, arose in the mind of the sub
scriber upon revisiting Sunbury, after an ab
scene of nearly three year :
Three years hare past, three long, three weary
years
Of hope, love, joy, of pleasure and of pain,
Of aonl-enobling hopes, of blighting fears,
And now I stand on thy green banks again,
My beautiful Sunbury. Once again,
I tee thy hilly barriers round thee crowd ;
1 hear thy Sabbath bell boom o'er the plain,
In solemn cadence, mournful, sweet, and loud,
Like saintly warnings from some passing cloud.
'Oh, I hare stood and looked with solemn awe,
Upon the Thunderers massy Alter, when
The trembling earth received the overthrow
Of blackening water ; and confess, that then
I felt a holy joy, as I surveyed
The stringlcss bow of promise overhead ;
And turiied with purer heart to Him who made
Niagara's dread voice, whose tones sublime
Shall ne'er be hushed, or stayed, throughout all
time.
And I have stood upon the verge
Of the Trairie Ocean. I have climbed
The gloomy heights, whereon the funeral dirge
Of valiant Wolf (that dirge the rolling dram)
Was heard when foemen met in deadly strife;
When fiery hearts from rival nations come,
And brave men fell beneath the murderous knife ;
When breathless Quebpc listened to the hum
Of distant battle, while her lip with fear was
dumb.
Aye, I have trod the fairest walks of earth :
The quiet glade, the grotto, dell, and stream
The flowery meadow, and the mountain's dearth ;
Have seen the city spire, like torch-light gleam
"Beneath the burning sunlight. I have seen
The moonbeams dancing in old Ocean's breast;
Have watched the Day-Rod, gloriously serene,
Sinking in burning, in the yellow west,
With gorgeous tinted clouds wrapped round
him like a vest.
But now, I feel a deeper, holier thrill
Of joy steal o'er my heart string, as I stand
Upon thy banks, sweet Sunbury, and view
The bridal of the Waters. Calmly grand,
Two streams unite like the glad gushing heart,
And mingle their low vows beneath my feet,
While in my heart the new waked echo starts,
While nameless voices joyous sounds repeat,
And fill this earthly Paradise with music sweet.

"Having seen in the newspapers some pieces
respecting the Declaration of independence by
the people of Mecklenburg county, in the State
f North Carolina, in May, 1775, and being so
licited to state what 1 know of that transaction,
I would observe, that for some time previous to,
and at the time those resolutions were agreed
upon, I resided in the town of Charlotte, Meek
Jenberg coirly; was privy lo a number of
meetings of some of the nioet influential and
leading characters of that county on the sub
ject, before the final adoption of the resolution?,
and at the time they were adopted. Among
those who appeared to take the lead, may be
mentioned llezekiali Alexander who generally
acted as chairman, John McKnilt Alexnnder,
a j secretary, Abraham Alexander, Major John
Davidson, Major (afterwards General) William
Davidson, Colonel Thomas I'olk, llztkid I'olk,
Doctor Ephruiin Brevard, Samuel Martain, Dun
can Ocheltree, William Wilson, Robert Irvin.
"When the resolutions were finally agreed on,
they were publicly proclaimed from the court
house door, in the town of Charlotte, and recei
ved with every demonstration of joy by the in
hubitauU. "I was then solicited to he the bearer of the
proceedings to Congress. 1 set out the follow
ing month, (say June) and in pussing through
Salisbury, the general court was sitting ; at
the request of the Court 1 handed a copy ol the
resolutions to Colonel Kennon.an attorney, and
they were read aloud in o;ieu court. Major
William Davidson, and Mr. Avery, an attorney,
called on me at my longings the evening after,
and observed, they had heard of but one person
(a Mr. Heard,) who did not approve of them.
"I then proceeded on to Philadelphia, and de
livered the Mecklenberg declaration of inde
pendence of May, 1773, to Richard Caswell and
V illiain Hooper, the delegates to Congress from
the State of North Carolina.
"I am now in the eighty-eigth year of my
ge residing in the county of Elbert, in the
state of Georgia. I was in the revolutionary
war, from the commencement to its close.
"I would further observe, that the Reverend
Francis Cummins, a Presbyterian clergyman,
of Greene county, in this State, was a student
in the town of Charlotte at the time of the a
doption of the resolutions, and is as well or per
haps better acquainted with the proceedings at
that time than any man now living.
"Colonel William Polk, of Raleigh, in North
Carolina, was living with his futher, Thomas,
in Charlotte, at the time 1 have been speaking
of, although too young to be forward in the bu
siness, yet the leading circumstances 1 have re
lated cannot have escaped his recollection.
"JAMES JACK.
"Signed this 7th of December, 1319, in pre
sence of
"JOB WESTON, C. C. O.
JAMES OLIVER, Attorney at law."
Thus u this monstrous fabrication crushed to
the earth. No one will believe that Kzektel
Polk, who "took the lead" in a Declaration of
independence more than year prior lo the De
claration by Congress, could ever have been it
lory in the Revolution.

FcAitrti. AtriiiKNT. On Tuesday last our
fellow townsman, E, Q. Henderson, E.-q , met
with an accident which had well nigh cost him
not only his own life, hut those of his wife and
child. They were riding down the turnpike,
and had just passed the Five Itocks, when a
team of Horses, attached to a heavy waggon,
having been left by their driver, ran away and
soon came up with Mr. II. who, hearing the
noise behind him, had turned out to the edge of
the precipice, but not sufficiently far to escape
collision, and his Horse, carriage and inmates
were precipitated down the bank, which was at
least forty feet high apparently to their utter
destruction. Yet as if by a miracle, after fall
ing some 5 or (5 feet, the top of the carriage
caught in a tree, and held them suspended up
wards of 30 feet above Mic Canal, until a gen
tleman came and extricated them the Horse
detached from tfie carriHoe, fell about 12 feet.
The carriage was broken toutoms.and the Horse
seriously bruised and injured, while Mr. II., his
lady and child, extraordinary as it may seem,
escaped with no other injury than the fright na
turally induced by their perilous situation.
Patlxville Emporium,
A Fkeak or LnjiirNiir,. The. barn ol" Mr.
Benedict Babcock, one mile from Clinton, on
the road to Utica. was struck by lightning, and
burnt, about 0 o'clock on Friday evening last.
The building was full of hay, oats, and other
grain, belonging to Mr. I. P. Cook, tenant of
Mr. liubcock. Mr. Cook had just finished his
summer's harvest, and drove in the team with
the last kxitl nf grain, closed the doors and went
to the house to get his supper, leaving the horses
attached to the wagon, when in a moment the
whole was enveloped in flames, and so rapid was
its progress that he did not save the horses.
