Tho year 1778 was a dark and gloomy one for our forefathers, who were then struggling for liberty. In South Carolina amiirs were then In a critical condition. General Greene made an unsuccessful attack on the HritiMh Post of Ninety-six- , and withdrew his men beyond the Tiger and Broad Rivers. Lord Rawdon fol- lowed him, but could not draw the patriot gonernl Into an engagement. At that period there stood in Houth Carolina a plain and unassuming house, it was a one-stor- y building, neutly white-washe- d nnd surrounded by a fenco. The Harden contained kmany choice flowers, and the beauti ful noney suckle shaded tlie doors and windows. It was the home of Mrs. Heath, who lived with her two daughters, while her son George was in Washington's army, fighting for freedom. Kate, the eldest of the daughters, was a beautiful girl of sixteen sum- mers; her ahurnhair hung In graceful curls down her shoulders, and her face beamed with kindness, while her eyes shone like the stars that lit up the azure vault of Heaven. One evening, as Kate was standing at the cottage door, she beheld two mounted orncers approaching. They were richly dressed, and one of them she recognized as Lord Ruwdon, the commander of the British forces in that section of the country. They rode up to her. and Kawdou leaned over in his saddle and said, in a kind voice : "Well, Miss, can you let me have the use of a room for a few minutes?" Yes, sir, our house hi open to you." Come, Colonel, let us liuny up business," said Rawdon, dismount ing, while tlie Colonel tint tlie same, the latter leading the horses to the stable. Lord Rawdon advanced to where Kate was standing and snid ; "Whose house is this, Miss?" "Mrs. Heath's sir." "Hal her son is in the rebel army under Washington, is he not?" Kate tiembled at the insult, and she look at the Briton with a search- ing glance. "My brother is no rebel, Lord Raw don: he is fighting for his country." "I am sorry for that; he is a brave boy, and would, no doubt, make a good British soldier," returned Raw don. "Lord Rawdon, you Insult me, sir; I would sooner see GeorgB die a fel on's deatli than see him in the king's army was the heroic answer. "I see you are a rebel, to, Miss Heath. But here comes the Colonel," said Rawdon, ns he saw that worthy doming from the stable. They entered the house and went Into a small room to hold a consulta- tion. Kute thought they might have something important to say: so she concluded to play the part bf an eavesdropper. She told ner mother of her Intention Who approved of it, and Kate placed herself in a position to hoar Briton's plaits. It was a dangerous undertaking, and she knew that if she was caught In the act f listening she would bo treated as a spy, and jierhaps execu- ted, for Lord Rawdoti knew no mer- cy. She cautiously approached the disir and looked through a crevice. Rnwdon and bis Colonel Were seated at a small lltblo on which lay maps. Thev were examining them closely, While Rawdon was explaining them to his Colonel. "Here is tireene's camp," said hej "and here Is ours. We must mnkfJ a bold striko, und if it be successful, Greene Will bo destroyed." "I don't s'o why it should not suc- ceed, do you, iny'Lord?" "No; Ir our troops fight lis well as they have heretofore, we shall suc- ceed," said Rawdon, his thee assuni-inir- a triumphant exoresstoiu I shint im nappy wnon tueso cursed rebels are driven away from Carolina, and then their rule will bo over." sahl I olonel Robert. "Wo must, crush Green Colonels I do not wish to vr hack to Etnrhuui and let It he ;,nld that I was outgener aled Dy a JNo, never i" ex- claimed Rnwdon, rising to his feet. , "Then we make the attack at day- break, do we not ?" asked the Colonel. "W do; have voiir regiment ready nnd make your men light like de mons." "Iet Us go now. Rut hold 1 what is the countersign for the pickets to- - night, my Wd ?"

"All right: pass on. But stop," cried tho picket, as he caught a glimpse of her face. Kate stopped her horse, and laid her hand on n pistol. The picket ap- proached and said : "Is that you. Miss Heath ?" "It is, Guy," returned Kate, for she recognized the soldier to be Guy Jack- son, who had often visited their house. "Where are you going Miss Kate?" he asked. "To see Mrs. Blake; sho Is very-sick.- "Just like you, Miss Kate always vising the sick; you are a ministering angel," said the haughty Briton. "Thank you for fhe compliment, Guy. But I must bo going. Good nlirnt." And Kate was airuin on her Journey, while the picket returned to his post. She had to pass four miles yet ere she would lie safe, so she urged on her steed. Before she had gone a hun- dred yards from Guy Jackson, a dozen mounted Britons rode furiously up to thepicket, and their leader cried out: "Did any person pass this nost a short time since?" "Yes, sir," was the picket's reply. "Do you know who it was ?" "I do; it was Miss Heath." "Had she the countersign, sir?" "She had." "I fear she Is safe. Forward, men. If she escapes, Greene is safe. A hun- dred guineas and a commission to the man who catches her," cried the lead- er of the band, as they dashed after the brave girl, leaving the picket In a state of bewilderment. Kate soon heard the sound of her pursuers, and she pushed on faster. It was a race for life or death. The British horses were fresh, while her's was beginning to show signs of fa- tigue "Forward, Selim; you must take me to Greene's camp," said Kate to her horse. But her enemies gained upon her, and one of them seemed bent on catching her, for he waa some yards In advance of his comrades: Kate heard the omnious tramp of his horse, and drew her pistols. Nearer he came until he was at her side, and then criml out "Halt, you cursed rebel !" Those were his last words, for Kate fired, and tlie bullet crashed through his bruih. The others did not stop to look attheirdead comrade, but passed on. They neared her again, and an- other trooper received his death-woun- d. Tne remainder halted, nnd a moment afterwards Kate heard the American picket cry out : "Who goes there?" "Kate Heath," cried our heroine, as she dashed throhgh tho line. The soldier had raised his gun, but when he heard her name it was low- ered, and he answered : "All right?" .The American camp wits reached; Kate threw herself from the saddle and placed her faithful horsein charge of a soldier. "AVhere Is Greene's tent?" "To tho right there, where you sea that light," replied the man pointing to the place. Slid entered tho General's tent, and found him engaged In writing; he raised Ills eyes; then rose to his feet) and said: "You cotne here ttt alatehoiir, Miss Heath." .. "T do, General; you arp in 4 danger." "How Is that.?'1 exclaimed Greene, The brave girl told her story; and tlTe patriot grasped her band, while the tears trickled down his war-wor- n cheek. "Thank God ! you have saved my arniy, Miss Heath. I can never re- pay you." ''I want no payment. The thought that I have done my duty, nnd the thanks of Nathaniel Greene, are worth more than gold and diamonds," was the heroic reply. "Tuko my thanks, my brave girl, and may the Great Jehovah watch over nnd guide you through tho changing scenes of life," resimndod Greene. ''And may he savo our country, too," added Kate. " Vou need rot. Here, sleep lv my tent while I seek a resting-plac- e among my men," said the kiud-liearb- Greene. I do not wish to rob you of your Couch, Uenorai." , .

And yet the stato of the country Is really worse to-d- ay than It was at the close of the war, and has lieon made so ciir-- ' tirely by the determination of the rad- ical rulers to foment discord and pro- long strife In tho intercuts of their political ascendency. Restore the Houth to Its normal relations fh' the Union, let commerce and Intercourse resume their accustomed ways, revive credit and confidence between the two sections, and the radical party would at once ccrtso to exist, and le disolved by a natural law. It lives ny agitation alone, and hence all Its policy Is directed to keep up agitation. it is for this reason that all tlie va- rious schemes of reconstruction have been invented to oppress nnd degrade the Southern people; that a military despotism ruoro odious nnd outrago-ou- s than any devised by Austrian tyranny has been continued; that the Freedmen's Bureau has been extend- ed, and that bloody riot have lxon encouraged to influence puhllo opin- ion. All these diabolical Inventions were contrived for the single purpose of keeping up Irritation, and of ex- cluding the South from the Union. Had there leen the least sincere wish for peace, or any cnimoity in Congress to bring It about, nil those differences would have boen settled, and all the wounds closed at the very first session after the war had ceased. ' But there was no such Intention, and no such desire. The best proof of that fact Is to be found in the bitter- ness with which the concillntorv course of Mr. Lincoln was pursued, aim ine manner in w tiicn np was per- sonally persecuted by the Stimners, Stevensi!s and others, who since his death, have been seeking popularity out of the man whom they Jiad un- scrupulously assailed while living.- - They sought to stimulate nad passions in tho South, and to provoke resentment by the most cruel and das- tardly wrongs, hoping to. convert that resentment Into political capital, and to speculate upon It as an article of trade. This is the spirit iri which they have treated a proud and pros- trate people of their own bloixl, and after Imixising terms most disgraceful to our age and civilization they ex- pect them to kiss tlie rod, and to ac- cept their degratlon as a boon. Now that they have established negro supremacy by the power of the bavonet: that thev bnve auhlortml the white men, women, and children of the South to the brutal barbarlanlsm of tho former slaves; that they have elevated ignorance, vice, loatlisoni" sensuality, and crime into the high places of tnist and honor, above vir tue, inteirrltv. intellltrence. and edu- - oatiotai that tlic.v havo overrun the South with plundering ailveiiturers) canting hyjiocrites, and carpet-ba- g knaves; that they have, by force and iraiHi Hnn vutainy; secured possession of theStnte Governments, and placed the whole political power in the hands of hired negro etniriisarlesaniM anil tnieving agents or mo ireeil-men- 's Bureau; and that they have robbed a ruined people' of almost their last dollar by an infamous system of taxation, lmjxiseu oy, negroes desti- tute of property and debased in Ignor- ance, after commiting these Crimes, and others equally atrocious, .their leader, General Grant, under tlie in- structions of his keepers, has the as- surance to say, "Let, Us have peace!'' The men who have kept up the war during tho last three years, arid who design to keep it tip in the future as they bave done fri tho past, on the eve of tho election cry out "peace!" that Is to say, a peace which Is to bow down ih submission before negro sit- - and to uccept it as a condi-Ii- n of toleration., We ti'll thesri Vindictive rind des- perate destriict Ives that there can M no real peace so long as the white race bf tlie South is subjected to liie rule of tho black, nnd that the return of all material prosperity Is lmposlble while that domination oontlhties. They devised It with perverse Inge- nuity to shut out a possibllllty of re- conciliation, and as means of pro- longing strife. Ix't us n'it be deceived by tho hy- pocrisy of those who prate of "peace," and whose policy Is W ar. They seek to embroil tlio country in .anew civil war, In the hope of distributing another thousand millions of the people's money among shoddy con- tractors, radical de'magorrues, and manufacturing monopolists. But they seem to forget that If such a ca- lamity should again liefnl the country by their wicked and willful deslgtis, it wilt Involve no liK'iil passion or in- terest, but every man who lovts the Constitution, who respects its obliga- tions, w ho is determined to preserve tho liberties ami rights which it guar- antees, nnd who Is opposed to the sub- jection of the white race to tho 110-g- ,f. The soldiers who Went Into the war of the rclsdliou Volunteered to fight for tho Union, undor a solemn pledge made by both branches of Conr gress that it was not to Ih prosecuted foraiiy purpose of subluxation.

But opinion Is improving even Iri this respect, nnd tho more Intelligentdo not sec where- -' In it Is better to strip a fine young tree of a crop of delicious pear than to break Into a granary and carry olF a bushel of wheat, or into a poultry house nnd purloin a dor.en pullets. Infrced.lt usually happens that the fruit has cost more tiino and care, and perhaps; more money, than the grain and poultry. we nave already stated tnat iiuie Is now said on tlils subject, but wo know the evil still to be a formidable one. Many are deterred from plant- ing tho best fruit ttees fmr fear of those nfilmnls, which are to them more formidable than unruly street cattle, known by the nnieof vagrant boys. We have lieen apprehensive that the ireheral silence ort this sub ject has riot l)en favofablo to Im provement or public opinion, ami we cannot have! a thorough cure until opinion liccofrles enlightened, Jrublio only a few nlonths ago that wd had tho best near tree In otlr garden entirely st rlpjM"d f I cWp 111 a single night; Suspefltlrlgj front several cir- cumstances, including his tracks lit the son soil, the mart who did It, wu serit a servant Immediately to Inquire or mm ir ho nan any pears to seii aware that he) cultivated rtone of his own.

Ttie result wasf that aitnougn a near neighbor, he avoided us for the next sit wCeks. Possibly this hint may be of usd to Others who are similarly annoyed; But tlio best cure, in con- nection With an Impassable thorn hedge, Is a consciousness on the part of the thief, that the whole comwu nlty will be against him as jxlice de- tectives, judge and Jury.

BRAVE KATE HEATH.

Tho year 1778 was a dark andgloomy one for our forefathers, whowere then struggling for liberty. InSouth Carolina amiirs were then In acritical condition. General Greenemade an unsuccessful attack onthe HritiMh Post of Ninety-six-, andwithdrew his men beyond the Tigerand Broad Rivers. Lord Rawdon fol-lowed him, but could not draw thepatriot gonernl Into an engagement.

At that period there stood in HouthCarolina a plain and unassuminghouse, it was a one-stor- y building,neutly white-washe-d nnd surroundedby a fenco. The Harden contained

kmany choice flowers, and the beautiful noney suckle shaded tlie doors andwindows. It was the home of Mrs.Heath, who lived with her twodaughters, while her son George wasin Washington's army, fighting forfreedom.

Kate, the eldest of the daughters,was a beautiful girl of sixteen sum-mers; her ahurnhair hung In gracefulcurls down her shoulders, and her facebeamed with kindness, while her eyesshone like the stars that lit up theazure vault of Heaven.

One evening, as Kate was standingat the cottage door, she beheld twomounted orncers approaching. Theywere richly dressed, and one of themshe recognized as Lord Ruwdon, thecommander of the British forces inthat section of the country. Theyrode up to her. and Kawdou leanedover in his saddle and said, in a kindvoice :

"Well, Miss, can you let me havethe use of a room for a few minutes?"

Yes, sir, our house hi open to you."Come, Colonel, let us liuny up

business," said Rawdon, dismounting, while tlie Colonel tint tlie same,the latter leading the horses to thestable.

Lord Rawdon advanced to whereKate was standing and snid ;

"Whose house is this, Miss?""Mrs. Heath's sir.""Hal her son is in the rebel army

under Washington, is he not?"Kate tiembled at the insult, and

she look at the Briton with a search-ing glance.

"My brother is no rebel, Lord Rawdon: he is fighting for his country."

"I am sorry for that; he is a braveboy, and would, no doubt, make agood British soldier," returned Rawdon.

"Lord Rawdon, you Insult me, sir;I would sooner see GeorgB die a felon's deatli than see him in the king'sarmy was the heroic answer.

"I see you are a rebel, to, MissHeath. But here comes the Colonel,"said Rawdon, ns he saw that worthydoming from the stable.

They entered the house and wentInto a small room to hold a consulta-tion. Kute thought they might havesomething important to say: so sheconcluded to play the part bf aneavesdropper. She told ner motherof her Intention Who approved of it,and Kate placed herself in a positionto hoar Briton's plaits.

It was a dangerous undertaking,and she knew that if she was caughtIn the act f listening she would botreated as a spy, and jierhaps execu-ted, for Lord Rawdoti knew no mer-cy. She cautiously approached thedisir and looked through a crevice.Rnwdon and bis Colonel Were seatedat a small lltblo on which lay maps.Thev were examining them closely,While Rawdon was explaining themto his Colonel.

"Here is tireene's camp," said hej"and here Is ours. We must mnkfJ abold striko, und if it be successful,Greene Will bo destroyed."

"I don't s'o why it should not suc-ceed, do you, iny'Lord?"

"No; Ir our troops fight lis well asthey have heretofore, we shall suc-ceed," said Rawdon, his thee assuni-inir- a

"Wo must, crush Green ColonelsI do not wish to vr hack to Etnrhuuiand let It he ;,nld that I was outgeneraled Dy a JNo, never i" ex-

claimed Rnwdon, rising to his feet. ,

"Then we make the attack at day-break, do we not ?" asked the Colonel.

"W do; have voiir regiment readynnd make your men light like demons."

"Iet Us go now. Rut hold 1 whatis the countersign for the pickets to--

"We mus go, Miss Heath, hut firstlet me thank you for your kindness,"said Iord llnwdon.

'Your thanks are received,' answ br-

Hoon Kate saw the picket's bayo-net gleam In the moonlight, andheard him cry out :

"Who goes there?""A friend with tho countersign."She approached the picket and

whispered:"England!""All right: pass on. But stop,"

cried tho picket, as he caught aglimpse of her face.

Kate stopped her horse, and laid herhand on n pistol. The picket ap-proached and said :

"Is that you. Miss Heath ?""It is, Guy," returned Kate, for she

recognized the soldier to be Guy Jack-son, who had often visited theirhouse.

"Where are you goingMiss Kate?" he asked.

"To see Mrs. Blake; sho Is very-sick.-

"Just like you, Miss Kate alwaysvising the sick; you are a ministeringangel," said the haughty Briton.

"Thank you for fhe compliment,Guy. But I must bo going. Goodnlirnt." And Kate was airuin on herJourney, while the picket returned tohis post.

She had to pass four miles yet ereshe would lie safe, so she urged on hersteed. Before she had gone a hun-dred yards from Guy Jackson, a dozenmounted Britons rode furiously up tothepicket, and their leader cried out:

"Did any person pass this nost ashort time since?"

"Yes, sir," was the picket's reply."Do you know who it was ?""I do; it was Miss Heath.""Had she the countersign, sir?""She had.""I fear she Is safe. Forward, men.

If she escapes, Greene is safe. A hun-dred guineas and a commission to theman who catches her," cried the lead-er of the band, as they dashed afterthe brave girl, leaving the picket In astate of bewilderment.

Kate soon heard the sound of herpursuers, and she pushed on faster.It was a race for life or death. TheBritish horses were fresh, while her'swas beginning to show signs of fa-

tigue"Forward, Selim; you must take

me to Greene's camp," said Kate toher horse.

But her enemies gained upon her,and one of them seemed bent oncatching her, for he waa some yardsIn advance of his comrades: Kateheard the omnious tramp of his horse,and drew her pistols. Nearer hecame until he was at her side, andthen criml out

"Halt, you cursed rebel !"Those were his last words, for Kate

fired, and tlie bullet crashed throughhis bruih. The others did not stop tolook attheirdead comrade, but passedon. They neared her again, and an-other trooper received his death-woun- d.

Tne remainder halted, nnda moment afterwards Kate heard theAmerican picket cry out :

"Who goes there?""Kate Heath," cried our heroine,

as she dashed throhgh tho line.The soldier had raised his gun, but

when he heard her name it was low-ered, and he answered :

"All right?".The American camp wits reached;

Kate threw herself from the saddleand placed her faithful horsein chargeof a soldier.

"AVhere Is Greene's tent?""To tho right there, where you sea

that light," replied the man pointingto the place.

Slid entered tho General's tent, andfound him engaged In writing; heraised Ills eyes; then rose to his feet)and said:

"You cotne here ttt alatehoiir, MissHeath." ..

"T do, General; you arp in4 danger."

"How Is that.?'1 exclaimed Greene,The brave girl told her story; and

tlTe patriot grasped her band, whilethe tears trickled down his war-wor- n

cheek."Thank God ! you have saved my

arniy, Miss Heath. I can never re-

pay you."''I want no payment. The thought

that I have done my duty, nnd thethanks of Nathaniel Greene, areworth more than gold and diamonds,"was the heroic reply.

"Tuko my thanks, my brave girl,and may the Great Jehovah watchover nnd guide you through thochanging scenes of life," resimndodGreene.

''And may he savo our country,too," added Kate.

" Vou need rot. Here, sleep lv mytent while I seek a resting-plac- e

among my men," said the kiud-liearb-

Greene.I do not wish to rob you of your

Couch, Uenorai." , .

"You win nor; 1 snuu tie engagedIn forming my troops to meet the at-tack, ' and General Greene left thetent. .

Kate fnjoyod a good rest that nightand in the morning Greene came tohi r and Joyfully exclaimed :

"Good news! Lord Ruwdon Is Infull retreat. We took a prisoner thismornhttr who says you frustratedtheir plmls and saved the army, t rodbless you for that good act! But Imust leave you now, for I am goingto follow Ruwdon. and teach himthat we caa fight, When are yougiiing homoY"

"In a few minutes, General.""GimhI bye: and may you have a

safe journey." responded Green, shak-ing fit r by tlie hand. Her horse wasled forth, and she was sixui on.hcrway home, w hich was reached insafety.

Kate Hcnth lived to see the warover, closed, and peitec and plentyspread their wings over uie mini; urnnot long afterwards she win weddedto Waller Gordon, who had lajeii aColonel in the American army.

Andyet the stato of the country Is reallyworse to-d- ay than It was at the closeof the war, and has lieon made so ciir--'tirely by the determination of the rad-ical rulers to foment discord and pro-long strife In tho intercuts of theirpolitical ascendency. Restore theHouth to Its normal relations fh' theUnion, let commerce and Intercourseresume their accustomed ways, revivecredit and confidence between thetwo sections, and the radical partywould at once ccrtso to exist, and ledisolved by a natural law. It livesny agitation alone, and hence all Itspolicy Is directed to keep up agitation.

it is for this reason that all tlie va-rious schemes of reconstruction havebeen invented to oppress nnd degradethe Southern people; that a militarydespotism ruoro odious nnd outrago-ou- s

than any devised by Austriantyranny has been continued; that theFreedmen's Bureau has been extend-ed, and that bloody riot have lxonencouraged to influence puhllo opin-ion. All these diabolical Inventionswere contrived for the single purposeof keeping up Irritation, and of ex-cluding the South from the Union.Had there leen the least sincere wishfor peace, or any cnimoity in Congressto bring It about, nil those differenceswould have boen settled, and all thewounds closed at the very first sessionafter the war had ceased. '

But there was no such Intention,and no such desire. The best proof ofthat fact Is to be found in the bitter-ness with which the concillntorvcourse of Mr. Lincoln was pursued,aim ine manner in w tiicn np was per-sonally persecuted by the Stimners,Stevensi!s and others, who since hisdeath, have been seeking popularityout of the man whom they Jiad un-scrupulously assailed while living.- -

They sought to stimulate nadpassions in tho South, and to provokeresentment by the most cruel and das-tardly wrongs, hoping to. convert thatresentment Into political capital, andto speculate upon It as an article oftrade. This is the spirit iri whichthey have treated a proud and pros-trate people of their own bloixl, andafter Imixising terms most disgracefulto our age and civilization they ex-pect them to kiss tlie rod, and to ac-cept their degratlon as a boon.

Now that they have establishednegro supremacy by the power of thebavonet: that thev bnve auhlortml thewhite men, women, and children ofthe South to the brutal barbarlanlsmof tho former slaves; that they haveelevated ignorance, vice, loatlisoni"sensuality, and crime into the highplaces of tnist and honor, above virtue, inteirrltv. intellltrence. and edu- -oatiotai that tlic.v havo overrun theSouth with plundering ailveiiturers)canting hyjiocrites, and carpet-ba- g

knaves; that they have, by force andiraiHi Hnn vutainy; secured possessionof theStnte Governments, and placedthe whole political power in thehands of hired negro etniriisarlesaniManil tnieving agents or mo ireeil-men- 's

Bureau; and that they haverobbed a ruined people' of almost theirlast dollar by an infamous system oftaxation, lmjxiseu oy, negroes desti-tute of property and debased in Ignor-ance, after commiting these Crimes,and others equally atrocious, .theirleader, General Grant, under tlie in-structions of his keepers, has the as-surance to say, "Let, Us have peace!''The men who have kept up the warduring tho last three years, arid whodesign to keep it tip in the future asthey bave done fri tho past, on theeve of tho election cry out "peace!"that Is to say, a peace which Is to bowdown ih submission before negro sit- -

and to uccept it as a condi-Ii- n

of toleration.,We ti'll thesri Vindictive rind des-

perate destriict Ives that there can Mno real peace so long as the whiterace bf tlie South is subjected to liierule of tho black, nnd that the returnof all material prosperity Is lmposlblewhile that domination oontlhties.They devised It with perverse Inge-nuity to shut out a possibllllty of re-conciliation, and as means of pro-longing strife.

Ix't us n'it be deceived by tho hy-pocrisy of those who prate of "peace,"and whose policy Is W ar. They seekto embroil tlio country in .anew civilwar, In the hope of distributinganother thousand millions of thepeople's money among shoddy con-tractors, radical de'magorrues, andmanufacturing monopolists.
