Leaving his carriage and entering the house j he in a few words apprized his wife and daugh- , er of the state ot affairs, and declared his reso- j lotion of fleeing to the States. ; 'I must be off instantly,' he said, with calm ' energy,.'or it will be too late.' 'Will you go in the carriage or on horseback?' j } asked Miss K., a young lady of eighteen, spring- j ing from the chair, while her father's spirit of ? J -I-! 1'?? 1.... ,r?..-I, ?ntk 'Oaring eruea jwsijiu^ innu net u?i n uj vo, On horseback?on the black marc in Uie alable. Bur what arc you going to do?' interrogated her father, seeing her throw on her ^ bowi, and seizing a lighted lantern. 'Saddle the black mare, to be sure,' she answered, and darted out at the hack door. There was less perturbation in the household thnn might have been expected, for the reason that this result of the Doctor's boldness of speech had been from the first anticipated. Indeed, each of the three felt less surprised that the royal officers were now on his track, than (hat they had suffered him to go thus long unmolested, Scarcely had tho Doctor, with the i .f ' ! assistance of his wile, transferred his money and 1 papers from his desk to his pockets, when the j daughter, pale and trembling, rushed in, cry I iu?~~'? i '"Haste, father, fly?I hear them coming i down the road !" "I am ready," said he. Then, looking in hi: ( daughters'* face he added, "hut I belieVo I may as well meet them ; they will readily frighten j you into telling them ail, and " "Never, father," returned the young lady resolutely ; "I am calm now Go?you will find the horse tied to the birch in the rear ol (he ham. Cross the field, and you may elude them." i Whispered 'God he with you,' were interchanged as the rebel left the house by the back passage and the door was softly closed behind him. The mother and the daughter were both pule with apprehension, and in spile ol her ut most efToits, the hitter's voice was slightly tremulous as she hastily resumed (lie reading which her father's entrance had interrupted. There was a sound of horses hoofs, and then a rap at the door The inmates pretended not to hear, until it was repeated, when the young lady rose and opened the door, while the mother continued sewing, with a manner as unconcerned as possible. Miss K., politely returned the salutations of the two gentlemen, whom she met, and being asked whether her fatliei t was at home, answered: "He is not, just now, but when he went out at dark, he mentioned that he would return early. Please walk in and sit down till becomes." The officers glanced at each other and then followed her into the house. ".Some persons who wish to see father," she observed to her mother, who looked up from her work, bowed and requested them to be seated. They complied, but were evidently disconcerted by not finding the object of their pursuit within his own doors; for tliev learned at the l.ou.se of his patient, three miles hack, that he luul left there lor home hut a few moments before. ^igiiilicunt looks were exchanged between them, and they appeared to doubt very seriously, whether their prey was not at that moment secret.'d about the premises. "Do yon think, madam, the Doctor will be at home soon inquired one of the officers of Mrs. K. "1 am unable to say with certainty," she re plied, carelessly raising her eyes to the clock on the mantle piece. "Half past nine," continued she; "he is usually at hone earlier, lie may have been called to see a new patient?1 think you will do well to wait a little longer, however." "We ate anxious to consult him professionally." rejoined theofiicer, half-foaiitig that their real business was suspected. . "if it he any little matter of mcdi.-iue you want, my daughter here can serve you as well as her father." The "iHcer was at n loss what reply to make, and the other, noticing his embarrassment, came to Ins aid by sa ving, with a sudden con tortion of his countenance, and at the same time pressing his hand to iiis check? "1 want an aching tooth extracted." "I ea:i extract it as w -!1 as any dentist in the township," said MissK., rising; and before the .vijfcrrr could contrive any plausible menus for escaping with the teeth, the instruments for extracting wore produced. His fellow, in turn, wishing to assist him out of his dilemma, said, rather confidently. "Hut 1 wish to be bled, Miss, and I presume you are not n sugcon." "I assure you I am perfectly competent to serve you in that capacity," replied the you ig lady, without the least hesitation, "and shall be I ? -- I- ?!... i . ? I .... li.lj'JM (U Iutr lauui'i, it* sunn 119 & lunv irlioved this gentleman," and she pretended to examine whether the instruments were in good order. The Queen's minions now made a virtue of necessity, and throw off the ?!t -mjited disguise, which had availed them so little, and appeared in their true characters. "We are here, madam," said the first officer, addressing Mrs. K., in a voieo of stern authority, "We aie here in her Majesty's name, to arrest your husband on a charge of High Treason. That he is now in the house we have no douht: and it will he wisdom in you to give him to justice at once, otherwise, a search'will he instituted immediately?he cannot escape us." "He has already escaped you," thought the lady, but she only replied by cooly giving her word of honor that he was not in the house; "yet if you desire it," she added, "I am ready to lead you through every apartment." The indifference with which the announcement of the object of their visit had been received, convinced Victoria's functionaries that their object had been previously understood ; vet they considered it hardly possible that their intended victim could have made his escape, and began a search, with perfect confidence in its success. Willi cacn minute s uciay, me iadies had gained assurance, and now, certain that husband and father was bey-nd the reach of his enemies, they cared little what passage the latter might choose. A portion of the guaid which had been placed about the house for the purpose of thwart, h)g an)' attempt at escape on the rebel, wa9 ordered to explore the outbuildings, while the two in command themselves searched the dwelling. The discovery of the Doctor's carriage, and : horse still panting with fast driving, under a shed, which, removed from the other out-houses was, as .Miss K. had anticipated when she placed them there, the last to be searched, inspired the men with fresh ardor; but they were finally obliged to confess their journey bootless, and return as empty as they came. .Meanwhile, ih.> old rebel, as he was called by the defenders of the Crown, was far on his way to the States, where he was soon joined by his family. A reward was offered for him, d?ad or alive, but in vain. He is still free to d *nl out the contents of his saddle-bags to tho relief of suffering humanity. wTOrwOMMAN"" ATTORNEY AT LAW, Camden, S.
