The-eventful year or 1778 was drawing to a close when Colonel Campbell of the British army, landed near Savannah, and fell fuaipnsly on the Americans nndcr General HoweofNorflf Caroliua. Howe's troops were fti no condflion to face the enemy; an unsuccessful campaign iu the Fluridas had enfeebled Ins men by dis eftsc, and deeming "discretion the bet ter part ot v*lor," he returned up the river. Of course, the then capital of Geor«. gia fell into the hands of the enemy, who abused his triumph, and consigned his name to an unenviable fame. There strong Troy element In Savannah which had been kept in check by the presence ot the Continentals, but when tho Britisbjmarclied into the city, it rose and asserted iis strength. Houses were plundered, and a number of pa triots bayoneted in the streets. Neigh bors rose against neighbors, and Tories led a plundering soldiery to the homes of the patriots. The Holly family that dwelt in Savan nah at the time ot its capture and sack consisted of three persons—the mother and two childicn. The father, a man'of wealth and influence in Georgia, had died duryig the year that preceeded the outbreaking' of tbo war, and the home of his family was uneol the finest residences in the city. Minun Holly, tho oldest child, was a beautiful girlofuiueteen, while her bioth er was five veara her junior. If the fath er had lived, he might have proven a Tory, for he WHS devotedly attached to the mother country, and the kingV troopi .j"»k possession ot the capital, Colonel Campbell commanded that the Holly's home should not be ransacked. TiiU3 the. house esAiped pillage, and Miriun hastened to thank the soldier for his kinduess. ' Cotouel (Jambell was struck by tbc girl'a graeo, and remarkable loveliness, and detained her at his headquarters until he had learned her family hiutory by many adroit questions. 'There goes the handsomest girl in Go.rgiaJ' oried Campbell, as the girl left the house. iriis companion, who happened to be his chief' ot staff, looked after Miriam and remarked *1 quite agreer with (be Colonel. These American rebels are all beautiful.' Campbell was silent for a moment. 'We will not occupy this building after to-morrow,' he" said suddenly. 4 1 am go ing4o takenp my abode beneath the same root that shelters Mi ram Holly.' . 'Love at fist sight, Colonel,' said the cliiet of staff, with a merry twinkle in bis eyes. 'ls Lady Bonn so soou forgotten, my dear Colonel?' •Lady Bonn be hanged?' cried Camp bell. 'A soldier loves when and whom he pleases, and, besides Major, one is not obliged to marry these Americans girls because he lores them.' * The conversation was interrupted by the arrival ot an orderly, and was not resumed. On the following day Colonel Camp bed made lliriam Holly's home his head quarters. The girl grew deathly pale when she learned oi the sudden change, and said iu a whisper to her mother: 'This is a terrible event. He is not fit to depart yet, nor will ho bo for a week to come.' 'Miriam, I have been thinking that it might be policy for us to give him up to the si my.' replied Mrs. Holly. 'Give him tip now?' cried the girl. •Give him op and hear every Tory in Sas vaunah cry for bis blood?

'Forgive me, Miriam! she cried. 'We must keep our secret from Colonel Camp bell. He must not kuow who lies to-dav beneat our root.' ! ' So Miriam hastened from ber mother's presence, and by touching a concealed ' spring iu the wall of an unfinished room, revealed a narrow stairway, bhe at ouce mounted the steps and entered a very femail apartment Into which Jigbt stream ed from a sky window. The room was tenanted. Ou a low eot lay a man iu bis twenties. His dark h&ir contrasted vividly with the deathly pallor of his face, and the suit of taded ContN nental uniform, with a sword, that bung against the wall over the bed, told that he waa an American soldier. A boy of { 15 who sat on the edge of the bed was reading aloud, but in a cautious toue, when the door opened to admit Miriam.

'We are going to remain here till we get strong enough *o leave tho city,' an swered Miriutn, with a aipile, and even while she spoke a taint noise below told her that tho British Coloiitl was moving into bis new quai tors. The Continental was a captain iif Howe's little army. He had served the Colonies with a zeal surpassed by none wl\o ralliod round the cause of freodom; but disease had seized upon hiin in Flors Ida, and heTßturned tVhh the troops to* Georgia to find an asylum in Miriam Holly's home, and to be nursed by her through the long hours of his fever. Tli^~ attending physician was a man who knew how to keep a secret, and as his sympathies were will) the patriot canse, lie gave Miriam many valuable hints that looked to the hidden soldier's health aud future safety. Colonel Campbell, bent on the conquest of the fair girl's heart, tried to make nimseit agreeable to the inmates of the mansion. Miriam look good care not to show him that his absence would be .more desirable than his company,• and the widow treated him with a courtesy that kept him alooi from suspicion for several day 9. It was believed by the Tories of Sa vannah that a number of Continentals remained secreted in the city, indeed, several had been discovered since itscap ture, aud at the time ot the commandant's change of quarters an active search for such peraoiia wcagoiug on. 'ls this house Haunted, asked the Colonel one morning the breakfast table. The started at the abrupt questbu, atul wondered ,M she turned pale. 'Haunted?' she echoed with au eftort. 'The ghost must be rats. -Have you been Visited by sheeted beings?' 'No, but after I 'setired last night I heard a noise liKe the sound of distant voices. Jl seemed directly overhead, and 1 called my chief of stall. Who sleeps over my apartment, if you will permit so bold a question ?' ■* 'My brother answered Miriam quick ly. I wa3 with him until a late hour lust night.' 'And the uight before?' 'Yes.' j . y 'Thou I beard the souud of your voice, no doubt,' said Campbell, glancing at. the chief of stall, whoso eyes during the con versation had been fastened ou the girl's face. TV. Major Guilford had noticed eyeiy change of coniciiauce, aud when the twain had retired from the break-last ta» bio, ho grasped his superior's arm. 'Whatdo you say now 'Colonel?' be oried in triumph. •I don't know wlntl tfc qay. I—' 'I watched Tier like a hawk, anil I tell you the girl is disshvilating. There is a rebel soldier iu this home!' Colonel Campbell looked at his majof, but did not speak. 'I never did believe that she was a tory, continued Guilford. 'She is one ot the rankest rebels in Savaunah. Why Colo nel so long as the Continental remains beiieatb this roof, you cannot Bucceed ,with her. He stands betweeu you andi Miriam Holly, so you see the line of yonr policy is clearly before j ou.' The British colonel started. '1 did not tbiuk ot that!*be said. Ma jor we will solve the mystery of the sounds we heard last night.' 'With me it is solved already,' was the obiet ol the stall's reply. From that hour Miriam Holly was watched. Hei absence from the lower rooms was noted, and the colonel kuew wheu she was not iu her boudoir. * As the days waned the hidden Con tinental improved, and at last he rose and donned bis faded uniform. Tomorrow night, if it bo dark and stormy,' Miriam said to him, while she polished bis sworil in £be mellow light of the lamp. I have the doctors assist ance, and the horse will not -fall you.

Miriam Holly landed that she wan about to outwit the king's men, the Continental was ready for flight, add there were true friends who promised to help him beyond the city. It wu with delight that the girl bailed the great drops Of rain that pattered on the window when the darkness of tbe chosen night fell over their city like a pall.

On Sunday in the eacly par*" of September they fell iuto touversatiou at tho close of the service upon some theme of unusual interest. Atter conversing earnestly while adjusting their boauets, the theme .was still unexhausted, and Miss Mary said, 'Sit right down, Julia, dear, and tell me everything she said.' Accordingly the two Iriends sat down, and become so mtieh interested that they | forgot that the sextou was iu tho habit 22 1879 of locking up (he church immediately uftcr K'l vlr.e, and taking the key with him to his residence, three miles away. When tlioy Anally rose and got up to go, and descended to the door, they loaud it fastened, and were brought face _to face willi the alarming possibility that they might be compelled to spend the rest of the day And the uight in confinement. The lower windows wore about twelve feet from the ground, and the young ladies did not dnro to jump nut. 'They iheretoro stationed themselves at the window to wait for possible help, aud ink the course ot halt an hour were rewarded by tbo accidental apneurance of Mr. Stiles. That good young man was greatly astonished at beholding the fair prisoners, and immediately began to devise means for releasing thein. To procure the key, was out of tho question, for be himself had just Keen the sextou ride away with die intention of attending a dog fight at u camp fifteen miles from Los Angeles. He proposed to (bo young ladies that they should jump, relying upon his promise to catch them; but they declined, assert.tig (bat they would rather die. lie then suggested that they should let themselves down by their hands from the window ledges, so that their teet would just touch his shoulders, when he could easily help thenh to the ground. They refused to consider this proposition; and told hiin that if be could do uotbiug better than to stand there and insult them be might go aud leave ilium to their fate. Stimulated by thiß reproach, he suddenly hit upoij a happy thought. Running to a neighbor ing pile of lumber, lie pro*ured a long wide, unplained board, one end of whiuh he placed on the ground, while tbe other end reached to tho window sfll. Down this board, which was inclined at an auglo of torty-fivo degrees, he urged tho pris oners to slide, assuring them that they could uut tail to reach the ground iu safety. It was finally agreed, after many whispered consultations between the two yow«>g ladies, lliut they would accept Mr. advice, on condition, however, that lie should stand with his back to the window aud devote all his energies to the study ot the clouds. Prolonged •reparations were then made, Wflft !t' double'object of preserving ' silk skirls from contact with tbo board and shoe buttons trow exposure to tbe direct rays of the sun. Those preparations Were at last completed, aud Miss Mary, seating hei-seJt on the ii:uli*ied plane, shot swift-, ly to the grouud with a short, sharp sbrisk that filled Mr. Stiles with alarm. Miss Julia followed with equai'jujelei iiy and a stili sharper shriek, aud Ml Stiles turned around to congratulate the girls on their escape aud to receive tbeir grats itudo. r Why those two usually polite and amiable girls told him 10 "go away, you horrid a»d- aiantltaueoualy biwst Uito tears, Mr. Stiles uould not imagine. Had he not done all that he could for tbem? and had they not through his means safely reached the grouud? H* could not understand such ingratitude: but when he picked up the board and started to carry it to the lumber pile bo dropped it with a remark verging upon irreverence, wbile a flt»od of tight burst upon his roeutal vision. As he eileutly drew oat bis jack knife and began 16 diss inter the splinters of whicii bis hands were full, be .felt that he was little less than a monster in human form. With the best intentions, be had conducted himself in such a way as to oarn the ju6t indignation of two beautiiol and estima ble girls. The worst feature of tha case was bis inability to make any setistaotos ry apology. He did for jk moment, think ot presenting each of the girl* with an apologetic ease of needles, but a little res flection convinced him that ife*would not do. From that day to this Miss Mary and Miss Julia have refused to recognize bim. and the unhappy man, conscious of tbe impossibility ot saying anything to soot lie their lacerated feelings, sutlers day and night from more remorse than would be sufficient for three4oll grown' repentant murderers. — Y.
