The paternal eye nf our chief was quick todisebver the extent of our sufferings, and ac knowledged them with tears.- but suddenly checking nis emotions, he reminded us that pur country and all w hold dear was staked upon the coming battle.

Washington observed us well then did ht exhort us with- all the fervor of his soul, "On yonder field to conquer, or die the death of the brave."

But there was no doubt, added the editor, of the guilt of the prisoner. I bad scarcely finished the paragraph, and a boat of indistinct memories were ctowded on my brim, as if at some time or other, 1 had heard the names of the. parties, when a faint tap was heard at my door, and desiring the person to enter, a closely veiled female stole tim idly into the room, and asked with a tremulous voiCp if I was Mr.-, wondering wuat ner mission, at so early an hour could be with me, I an swered in the Affirmative, and desiring her to take a' chair, Waited for her to. speak. 1 A more exquisitely moulded lorm I had rarely seen.

Never shall I forget the Bad; ol grate ful smile, with which that angelic wo man, thanked me for my promptness. It seemed as if her wholo soul was wrap ped up in her husband, as if every mo ment of suspense or delay was to her worse than death.

As I pressed his hand a crowd oi former memories poured like a flood of sunset light across my soul. For a moment we forgot all but the past. Hut then come the terrible conscious ness of tha present, of the ignominy of Duval's situation, and the perils that threatened to break his poor wife's heart. One brief word, one hasty' as surance of my friendship, and of my confidence in his innocence, was all the time permitted us. He said noth ing, for the jailor entered to conduct him before tba committing magistrate but I could see that he turned his head aside to brush away a tear, and here, as ha pressed my nana, ine lervam ejaculation; "Thank God!".

She knew her father's will, and that she would be penniless if she married without the guardian's conset. But it was too late, The evening walks end daily meetings which the gurd an bad overlooked,, had proved too much for the lovers' young and susceptible hearts, auri already had loose vows, that Mary fell that only death could break, been exchanged between them.

The history ofthe heart s short, and soon told.

Bui ihe was happy, In the ptecence of him he loved she cnuld forget fortune, friends,(la''terrs, and all. She trusted too that her guardian would relent. Poor thing how she deceived .herself. Her letters were returned unopened. and she heraelf spurned from his pres ence. Their futnre history was that of hundreds before and eince. 1 overly began to lower around them.

Friendless and alone, almost without means of sympa thy, desertod by all who had formerly crowded around ner, she maintained themselves for four weary months on I the profits of her mother' long cherish ed jswelry, watching day aod night, '.through cold and sickness, over the fe vered bed of her husband.

At times, nowever wnen ga zing on the pale face of his wife, he would turn bis head away to nina a mo mentary tear.
