The Maiden and the Hero.

On the night of the battle of Brandy
wine, | was sent with message from
General Green To Count Pulaski, no.
bic Polandcr, who took Il prominent
part in our freedom. He was quarter
cd in neat farm house near the upper
tortls. After our business was finished
the Count asked me to take some re-
ircshmcMts, and at the same time he
called out
"Alary, my lass, Mary =
In an instant a rosy checked girl en-
tered, her face bcaming with joy, it
would seem, ut the very sound o:' pu-
laski's voice.
did you call me, Count % said she
timidly.
GLOW often have told you my lit
tic love, not to call me Count; call
me your dear Pulaski. This is re-
public, my iavoritc. We have no
Counts you know"
''But you are Count, sir, when at
home, and they say you come IA long
way over the ocean to fight for us"
''lcs yes, Mary, very true, did
come a long way, but one reason why,
was, | had to come in Il mcasurc.-
Now can you get for this gentleman
and myself IL little rcfrcshmcnt! He
has Il long way to ride to night"
"Ccrtainly sir" and she went out of
the room like fairy.
"A fine pleasant girl" said Pulaski;
would that had the wealth that
once had, would give her a portion
that would send half the youths hcrc;.
bouts after her sweet face. X =
On the morning of the lth Of Sep.
tembcr, 1910, the British army ad-
vanccd in full force to Chadd's Ford.
for the purpose of crossing the Brandy.
wine creek, and bring on an action
with Washington. Sir William Howe
drove MaXwclls division across the
creek by ten O'Clock, at one of the
lower tords.
The llessian general knouphauscn,
with n large force advancing up the
side Of the creek and uniting with Lord
CORVALLIS who commanded the left
wing OF the army, crossed at the upper
tords Of the river and creek.
1t 50 happened that during the ra-
ging Of the conflict, in carrying orders
] passed Immediately in direction OF
Pulaski's quarters, that | had visited
the night before. Situated as the
isasztAc c.sdst .nssidst OF battle, curl
erdceu me TO fruo up. sudden
ly a sheet Of flame burst forth. The
house was on fire. Near the door step
lay the body of Mary, her head cut
open by a sabra, and her brains oozing

first, but gathering strength, issued
from them.
Must [ lie here like craven and
bide deaths coming? 10 die! TO
die /! What is it to die! A man
ceases to breathe and all is over
Yet It's terrible to stare ones cer-
tain doom thus in the face. But
why should l, who have faced death
hundred times, fear it now ? One
short struggle, and this pulse will
cease to beat. Then will [ lie a
senscless clod, like those around me.
And she! Oh, God ! Reflection,
bitter, damning reflection, comes to
steal my peace away, and make me
feel the stings OF conscience. Back,
coward fear 10 die in manhood $
prime, and leave this world so full of
beauty. TO die! To die Hell's
foulest demons dance before mine
eyes! The voices of ten thousand
furles are ringing in my ears. Oh
God If God there bc-send some
kind hand to stop this flow, and case
my pain. l will not die !" and. like
the Aickcring glare of the candle,
dying in its socket, was the flash Of
his sunkcn eye. 'Ho! my sword
and horses !! / will not die ! will
resist death and drive him hack from
the very threshold of my heart. TO
die I! Oh, God!!' One quick, con-
vulsivc struggle, one long-drawn sigh,
and his guilty soul, laden with crimes
of the deepest dye, winged its flight
away beyond the blue expanse, to
meet its incensed Maker.

That was the secret of his prodigous
knowledge. After an attack Of.

of bread and milk. Often he slept
