The year 1781 was a dark and Aloomy one for our forefathers, who wore then struggling for lib erty. In South Carolina affairs \voro then in a critical situation. General Greene made an unsuc cessful attack on the Bristmh post of Ninety-Six, and withdrew his mon beyonI the Tiger and Broad Rivers. Lord Rawdon followed him, but could not draw the patriot general into an engagement. At that period there stood in South Carolina a plain and un-ts sliming house; it was a ono-story building, neatly whitewashed, and surrounded by a fence. The gar tien contained many choice flow trs, and the beautiful honeysucklo ahaded the doors and windows. It was the home of Mrs. Heath, who lived with her two daughters, while her son George was in Wash ington's army, fighting for free dom. Kate, the oldest of the daugh terts, was a beautiful girl of sixteen bummers ; her auburn hair hung 'in graceful curls down to her i3houlders, and her face boamed With kindness, while her eyes shone like the stars that light up the azure vault of heaven. One evening, as Kate was stand itig at the cottage door, she buheld two mounted officers approaching. They wore richly dressed, and eno of thom she recognized as Lord Rawdon, the commander of the British forces in that section of the country. They rodo up to her, and Rawdon leaned over in his saddle and said, in a kind voice: "vell, miss, can you lot mo have the use of a room for a fow miin utes ?" "Yes, sit', our house is open 'o yo0l." "Comn, colonel, lot us hurry up business," said Rawdon, dismount ing, while the colonel did the same, the latter loading the horses to the stable. Lord Rawdon advanced to where Kate wais standing, and said: "Whose house is this, miss ?" "M'rs. Ileath's, sir." "Ha I her son is in the rebel air my, under Washington, is lie not?" Kato trembled at the insult, and she looked at the Briton with a searching glance, "My brother is no rebol, Lord Rawdon ; he is fighting for his country." "I am sorry for that; lie is a brave boy, and would, no doubt, make a good British soldier," re turned Rawdon. "Lord Rawdon, you insult me, sir. I would sooner sea George dio a folon's deth than sea him in the king's army," was the heroic answer. "I so you are a robol, too, Miss Heath. But here comes the colo nel," said Rawdon, as h saw that worthy coming from the stable. They entored the house and went into a small room to hold a consultation. Kato thought they might have something important to eay, so she concluded to play .the part of eavesdropper. She tol her mother of her intetntion, who approved of it, and Kate placed her'self in a position to over ho ar the Br'iton's plans. It was a dangerous undertaking, andl she ktnow that if she was caught in the aict of listening she would be tr'eated as a spy, and pecr ap,executed, for Lord Rawvdon knew no mercy. Sihe cautiously approached the door andl looked thirough a crevice. IRawdon anid his colonel woere seated before a small table on which lay maps. They were examining than- close ly, while Riawdon was explaining t,hem to the colonel. "Here is Greene's camp," said .he, "and here is our's. Woe must make a bold strike, and if it be successful, Greene will be dlestr'oy ed." "I don't see why it should not, succeed ; do you, my Lord ?" "No ; if our troops fight as wvell as they hive hier'etofore we shall succeed," said Rawdon, his face assuming a triu mphant expression. "I shall feel h appy when the cursed rebels are drtivoni away from Carolina, and then their- rule will be over," said Colotnel Rob. erts. "We must crush Groeone, colo wul; I do not want to go back to England and let it be said that I was out-gene'aled by a rebel. No, p never I" exclaimed Rawdon, rising to his feet. "Then, we make the attack at <daybreak, (10 wo not ?" asked the colonel. "We do ; have your regiment ready and make your men fight like demons." -"Let, us go, now. But hold I what is the countersign for the piokets to-night, my Lord ?" "Egiand," answered Lord Raw <Ion, lowering his voice. Kate listened to the Briton's plan with a wildly throbbin g heart, and she resolved to save the pa triot iAirny. When she heard the aonnUetsigo she left the door and busied heneelf in her housohold dluties, and soon the two officers emerged from the room. "We must go, Miss Heath, bu fi'st let me thank you for you kindness," Said RaWdon. "Your thanks are roccived," an sworod Kato. The horses were saddled, an< the officers were soon oil thei way. Kate watched, them til they were out of sight, and thei she prepared for her perilous jour noy. She threw a shawl over he head and went to the stable. He fleet footed hor;se neighed as s1 entered, and she patted him 01 the head and said : "Well, nobe Selim, you inus carry me safely through to-night for if yOu (10 not Greene will b destroyed." The animal seemed to under stand her, fof he gave a low whir ny. Our heroine saddled Solim, lc him from the stable, and was soot riding towards Greene's cam which was cight miles distant She rode swiftly, for she wantei to reach her destination in tine t( let hor patriot general form li men to moet tile assault. Ti British pieots were four mile distant, and sho would be com pelled to pass through their lines but as sho was now in possessiol of the couintersign sho did not, fea "Phe result. Soon Kate saw the picket's bay onet gleam in the moonlight, an heard him cry out: "Who goes there ?" "A frienO, with the countei sign." She approached tile pilcut an whispered : "England I" "A II right; pass on. But stop I cried the picket, as he caught glimpse of her face. Kato stopped her horse, an laid her hand on a pistol. Thi picket approached and said "Is that you, Miss Heath ?" "It is, Guy," returned Kato, fo she recognized the soldier to b Guy Jackson, who had often vi, ited their house. "Where are you going to-nighi Nli8s Kate ?" he asked. "To seu Mi's. Blake , she is ver; sick." "Just like you, Miss Kate-a ways visiting the sick ; you are ministering an'gel,said tihe haug ty Briton. "Thank you for the compliment Guy. But I nust be going. Goo night." And Kato wis again o her journey, while the picket r< turned to his post. She had to pass four miles yc ore she would be safe, so she urge on her steed. Before sh1e had gon a 11111dCred yards from Guy Jac! son, a dozen mounted Britons rod furiously up to the picket, an their leader cried out: "Did any person pass this pos a short time since ?" "Yes, sir," was tile Picket's r< ply. "Do you know who it was?" "1 do; it was Miss Heath." "HId she the countersi"n sir? "Sh had." "I fear she is safe. Forwart. men I If she escapes, Greene saved. A hundred golden guinea and1 a commission to tIhe man whl catches her," cr'ied the leader c the band, as thley dashed after th brave girl, leaving tile picket in state of' bewildoerment. Kate soon heard the sound c her pursuers, and she pushed o faister. It was a race for life o death. The British horson wer fresh, while hler's was begin11nin to showv signs of fatigue. "Forwardl, Selemn ; you muhF take me to Greene's camp," sai Kate, to 1her horse. But her enemies gained up~o her, and1 one of themn seomod ben on catching her, for ho was som yards in advance of' his corladleI Kate heard thle ominous tramp c his hlorse andl drew~ her pistol. Noarer' ho came until 110 was at lhe sidle, and thlen cried1 out: "Halt, you curIsedh rebel !'" Those wero' his last words, fo Kato fired, and the bullet crashle throughl his brain. rThe othler did not stop to lookc at their dea corador, but pressed oin. Thio; neared her1 again, andl anothie trooper r'eceived his dlonth wvound Tho11 remaindler halted, and a mc mont after'ward Kate boeard( thl American picket cry out: "WVho goes thore ?" "K(ato Hleathl," cried our' herc ine, as she dashed throughl th~ lino. Thle so1ldier had r'aised hlis gun but when lhe boardl her name I was lowver'ed, and he answered: ''All righlt I" TIhe American camp was r'eacia ed ; Kate threw herself from th saddle, and placed her faithifu horse in charge of a soldier. "Wheore is Greene's tent?" "To the right there whore yol see that light," replied the mar pointing to the place. She entered the general's tent and found him engaged in writingj ho raised his eyes, then rose to hi foot and said!: "You come hero at a late honti Miss .Hoath." "do, General; you Ar9 in dari L " How is that ? " exclaim Groono. Tho bravo girl told her stor - and the patriot grasped her han while the teV-s trickled down h I war-worn Chooks. r "Thank Godf you have sav< I my army, Miss Heath. I can no I or repay you." - "I want no payment. TI r the thought that r havo dono I e duty, and the thanks of Nathai 3 Greene are worth more than go I and diamonds," was the heroic r ply t "Tako my thanks, my bra, , girl, and may the Great Jehova 3 watch over and guidn you throni the changing scones of life," r sponded Greene. - "And may Ile save my countr too," added Kate. I "You need rest. Here, sleep 1 11y tent to-night, While I seek resting placo 1 amoig my Imenl said tite kind-hearted Greene. "I do not wish to rob you > youtr couch, geleral." s "You wvill not. I shall be e 3 gaged inl forming my troops s mcot tihe attack ;" and Gener - Greeno loft the toit. Kato enjoyed a good rest th i night, and in the morning Gener r Greene Came to her and joyfull exclaimed : - "Good news ! Lord Rawdon I in full retreat. We took a priso er this morning who says y< friustratcl thoir p'plals andi sav< - the army.
