WILMISQT05. if. C- SATCRtjAY6CTOBER14,185. KfiVOIiUTIOJfABV AJTEcbOTE 1 T 7 5. In a lonely house, that separated Lexing ton from Woburn, aat two females, each holding an infant in her arms. Mrs K-, the mistress of the mansion, had two little children beside her babe She had, within a few days, witnessed the departure of her husband, who had shoul dered bis gun, and gone forth in defence of his country. . The husband of Mrs. v. was m w u taht clime, and her only brother on the field of battle. She, with her infant son, had fled from Boston, then in possession of the British, to seek a quiet retreat with her , friend in Lexington. It was a dreary night, the roar of the cannon, which had been heard through the day, had ceased, and ail was hushed in si lence. The clock had struck eleven, and the two women were sitting over a few dy ing embers, talking of the perils of the town, and the much loved ones far away. il IT 1- ITl :,l C U 1 honr fWnf- lldlA I BW .... . 1 steps." -a It is only the rustling of the trees, and we will "not be needlessly alarmed," replied the other, turning deadly pale, and pressing her infant more closely to her breast, as if afraid it might be wrested from her, and trying to assume a composure which she could not feel. ,At that moment the latch was lifted, and a gentle rap was heard. Who is there asked Mr. K, in a tremulous tone. 444 A friend,' replied a low voice, speaking through the key-hole, 4 for Heaven's sake let us enter.' The door was immediately opened, and three men entered in profound silence, each muffled in a long cloak. Do not be alarmed, ladies,' said one in the same low tone of voice; 4 we are friendr to our country, and are pursued by the enemy ; we have hid in the woods through the day, and have come to seek your bounty, and shelter for the night. And those yoo- shall have, with all my heart, said Mrs. K, whose countenance brightened up, when she found, that instead of the dreaded enemy, her noble guests were none other than John Hancock, Sam ael Adams, and one whose name is not now exactly known ; but,' she continued, 4you would not be safe here a moment. Why, the red coats are prowling around us in ev ery direction, they were here onlv yester day, eating - up all my pie3, bread and cheese, and because tr.ey could not find enough at my neighbor's to satisfy their hunger, they must needs rip open their beds and leave their cider running out. Oh, sir, these are dreadful times.' 4 They are indeed madam,' said Mr. H, listening with painful interest to her sad tale. 4 But gentlemen, he continued, tur nin to; his companions, 'what shall we do, for if is certain we are not safe here V They looked at each othei, but spoke not. fHaveyouany neighbor,' asked Mr. H. 'at whose house we might find safety for the night ' None, except my father's, replied Mrs. K., 'and it would be dangerous for you to go the main road, and you would never find your way through the woods, and we have neither man nor boy to show you, but what have gone to fight the red coats.' Mrs. V. now turned to her friend and asked her 'if she would stay alone and nurse her babe, while she went with the gentlemen to show them the way.' 4 i will,' she answered, 'though it is sad to be alone in suca dangerous times. Uut you must not go ; you are not able, you who are lame, and never walked a mile at once in your life, will not think of going so far on this wet night.' Mrs. V. made no reply, for she knew that there was not a momenyo be lost ; so, laying her infant in the arms of her friend, she wrapped her riding-hood around her; a' garment much worn in those days, and desired the gentlemen to follow her. When they saw this little deformed woman, in the dead of night prepared to walk a distance of nearly four miles, they looked at each other in mute astonishment, but they had no time to waste in words, for the case was desperate and she, taking the offered arm of Mr. H. they went forward, the two gen tlemen bringing up the jear. The rains which had fallen for some days previous had so swelled the creek over which they had to pass, that they were often ankle deep in water, and one of the gentlemen was obliged, in many pla ces, to carry their guide in bis arms. What with walking and wading they reached the farm house about three in the morning; and no sooner had they aroused the family and made known their situation, than eve ry individual was in motion ; and even the dog tried to show them by his. gestures, -that they should find protection. j ? A blazing fire soon shone forth, and a 1 plentiful repast was provided, and, notwith standing the gloominess of the times, a de gree of cheerfulness and even humor per vaded the little company. " Early in the morning, a carriage was in readiness to convey Mrs. V. back to her own house. As she was about to depart, Mr. H. took her hand, and said, ' Madam, our first meeting has been in troublesome times. Heaven grant that we may live to see brighter days. But God only knows when these scenes will end ; should we arrive the struggle, and you ever need a friend, think of me. Saying this they paj ted and never again met Years rolled on, peace was restored, and prosperity budded forth. The three gentle men arose to honorable stations, and in the confidence and respect of their fellow citi zens, as virtue and talent should rise. But what became of the woman? Alas my story i soon told.' Little was after! wards known by the writer of Mrs. K Ma V.s father lost all his property d uring the revolution. Her only brother was mor tally wounded at the battle of Bunker HilL Here he, with many others who shared the same fate, was thrown into a cart, and con veyed to. th loathsome- prison in Boston; where, after lingering foe some lime, desti tute of care And attention, and almost the permitted to see one of his dearest friends, he passed with- aaany - others into that world isor whence no one returns, and was soon forgotten amid the calamities and horrors of war."!

" J". a , ') . From Ik Baltimore Clipper. Hew Popery Treats Repnbliieanlna, and how Papists like the American Constitution. ' ; Some of the Pope's hireling scribblers are occupying m"cb space in the Sun, Argus, and True American, to paint tne virtues or Romanism and the vices of it asntagonists, They claim that there is no danger to be apprehended from that papal supremacy in this country that is likely to arise trom tne emptying of Ireland upon us, from the fact that the Pope cannot control his' own Catholic subjects in Italy, and bad to call in French bayonets to keep them m sub jection. Oh what silly fellows I Don't they know that his nonness excommunica ted as "heretics, infidels, and children of the devil" all who rebelled against his tem porary authority, and that be recognizes nobody zs Catholics but those who took up arms to sustain him on his despotic throne? Ask Bishop Hughes if he calls the Ital.an patriots Catholics, and he will answer 1 Think my master would pursue them to the uttermost ends of the earth . if hey were Chathliss?" Catholics indredf No man is a Catholic (as the Pope understands it,) unless he fights for a proscription of Protestants in Italy, and intrigues unceas ingly for it however he may locale him self. . ;V s Again, the hireling scribblers alluded to, boast that we annexed Catholic Louisiana, Florida and California, and found their in habitants til loyal supporters of our Con stitution, and that we are now offering one or two hundred million dollars for Catho lic Cuba. What ignorant creatures, and how dumb and stupid they must consid er us Americans! Don't they know that the faithful papists of Cuba are dead against the sale of that island to the United States, and that the Creole patriots of that island favorable to coming under our Gov ernment are regarded as abominable here tics, to be imprisoned, shot, or garroted, as the nature and extent of their love for our republican system may warrant ? Do they not know that the true and steadfast pa tists of Louisina, Florida, and California pulled upstakes and returned to their old priest-ridden homes, rather than live under the free-toleration Constitution ot our coun try and have they not had warning that all the old Spaniards will pull up stakes and leave Cuba the moment a revolution may be successful there, or a purchase of that island made by our Government If the papists that remained in Louisiana and Florida proved true to the American Con stitution, is it not because their numbers were too few to justify a contrary-course on their part? Having thus Bwept away all the arguments of the papal apologists and defenders, let me now say to all true Americans win venerate those Know No thing founders, (Washington, Jefferson, Madison, and Tackson.) that your paper is denounced as the "BigoCs Organ" and as it is the oran of Americans, this is denoun cing all Americans and Protestants as big ots. But let them go on. They can hard ly call us harder names than the British and Tories of the Revolution called our pa triot fathers in their day, and as we are fighting anew the battle of independence let us bear this abuse of the foreign party patiently and meekly.

KATHElt SPICY. The editress of the Olive Hrnnch, pub lished at Boston, hnvinrr received a com munication from Nushville. Tennessee, in quiring whether some femule printers coulJ be hired to go to Nashville, replied as fol lows : Every girl in Boston who ia olJ enough to work in a printing office, or ony other office, has a lover, whom she would be just as likely to trade off for a Tennessee arti cle as she would be to swap him off for ft grizzly bear. The idea of a Boston girl, who goes to operas, patronizes Juelien's concerts, waltzes once a week, eats ice cream, rides in the omnibuses, wears satin slinners. sometimes kisses the editor, going to Tennesse, except she goes there as the wife of one of your first dm citizens, is truly ridiculous. Would'nl a girl in a silk dress, -ith lace edged pantlets and shiny gaiter boots, look well trudging through the mud and mire of Nashville to an old barn of a printing; office, while in one cor ner of the same room two old JarkUe are jerking uway olJ Ii.uu.ib'o j resa, and in the other the editor is squirting tobacco juice over the floor? Wouldn't she be in a nice fix when the editor an 1 some grat brute of a fellow, whom he offended, got playing at the game of shooting their re volvers across the office ut each other's heads ! Who would make tho fire when ihe had run off and the editor was drunk? Who'd go home with her dark nights? Who would take her out ta rido on Saturday afternoon, and go to church with heron Sunday? No, sir, ft Boston girl won't go to Tennessee for love nor mon ey. She can get enough of both nearer home. Getting A Bahy by "Hook or by C rook." A fellow nanW Drury stole little boy, two years old, from a gentleman of Natch ez recently. He was pursued by a band or armed men, who arrived at hi hoU": a distance of twelve miles, at midnight. 1 he stolen boy was found in bed, between Drury and bis wife. Drury pleaded that "hirn self and wife had been org married, were without offspring, and he had determined upon the possession of ft baby ky 'hook or byrook.f" SWEET AND SOUR APPLES. The Manchester Mirror says there is a rentleman in that vicinity who has two apple trees which bear fruit, of which one side ia tweet .nd the other sour. Such ap ples must be just the thin for an ill sorted married couple the sweet wife nilling away at one side, while the sour husband, cheek-by -jowl, crunches the other.
