In the midst Of the carnage and confu-
sion, Jonas FASTENED in search of his be-
trothed. If she had treated him with dis
dain as regenade, she now regarded him
with horror, as the traitor who had
brought this destruction upon his unhap-
Ply countrymen. All his entreaties for
her to forgive and be reconciled to him
were of no avail. She solemnlY vowed to
repair to Constantinople and end her days
in the convent.
Finding supplications fruitless, he seized
her after violent struggle, threw her on
the ground and made her prisoner. She
made no further resistance, but, submit
ting to captivity, seated herself quietly on
the grass. The lover hattered himself
that she relented, but, watching her OPP
portunity, she suddenly drew forth a poig
nard, plunged it in her breast, and fell
dead at his feet.

that the peach is destroyed by cold when

MARY REDsOND.-Mary Redmond was tho
daughter Of patriot somewhat distinguished
among his neighbors in Philadelphia. Many
of her relatives were loyalists; and she was
playfully called among them 4" the black eyed
rebel" She was accustomed to assist several
women whose husbands were in the American
army, TO procure intelligence. The dispatches
were usually sent from their friends by boy,
who carried them stitched in the back Of his
coat. he came into the city bringing provis-
ions to market. One morning, when there was
some reason TO fear he was suspected, and his
movements watched by the enemy, Mary un-
dertook to get the papers in safety from him.
She went, as usual, to the market, and in a
pretended game of romps, threw her shawl
over the boys head, and thus secured the
prize. She fastened with the papers 70 her
anxious friends, who read them by stealth,
after the windows had been carefully closed.
When the news came Of Burgoyne's g surrender,
and the whig women were secretly rejoicing,
the sprghtly girl, not daring TO give vent
openly to her exultation, put her head up the
chimney and gave a shout for Gates.
