Brave Kate.
The year 1781 wits n dark, slooinv one
for tlie Americans, who were thai) strug
gling lor imiepetHieitce. in fcoutii Car
olina afiairs were in a critical condition.
General Green made an uiisuccesoftil
attack on the British iiost of Ninety
Six, ami withdrew his men beyond the
Tiger ami Uroad rivers. Lord Itawilon
followed him, but could lvot draw the
Patriotic general into an engagement.
At that period there stood, in South
Carolina, a plain and uiMgsuininghoue;
it was a one-story buildiiur. neatlv
whitewashed, atrilgurroumled by a fence.
Tlie garden contained many choice (low
ers, ami the beautiful 'honeysuckle
shaded tlie doors and windows. It
ws the house of Mrs. Heath, who lived
with her two daughters, while her son
George was in Washington's army
lighting for freedom.
Kate, the eldest of tlie daughter's, was
a beautiful girl of sixteen summers; her
auburn hair hung in graceful curls
down hershoulders, and her faee beamed
with kindness, while her eyes shown
like stars that lit up the azure vaults of
iiea ven.
One evening, as Kale was standing at
the cottage door, she beheld two mounted
.otllecrs approaching. They were richly
dressed, and one of them she recognized
as Lord Itawrion, the commander of the
I5ritirli forces in that jwrt of the coun
try. Tliey rode up to her, ami Itawdou
Iwnt over his saddle and said in a kind
voice, "Well, mi-, can you let me have
tire use of a room for a few minute-."
"Yes, sir, our house is ojen to you."
"Gome, Colonel, let us hasten to'buxi
nes," saidltawdon, dismounting, while
the Colonel did tlie same, the latter
lemlhte the horses to the stable.
Iortf Itawtion advanced to where Kate
was standing, and said, "Who? house
Jathie, Miss?"
"Mrs. Heath's, my lord."
"JIa! Her son is in tlie rebel army,
under Washington, is lie not?"
Kate trembled at the instil t, and she
looked at the llriton with n searching
glance.
"My brother is no rebel, Lortl I!aw
don: he is fighing ftr liis country."
"I am sorry for that. He is a brave
boy and ould, no doubt, make a good

Lord Kawdon, you insnlt me. 1
would sooner see George die a felon's
lentlt than see him in theKinc'sarinv,"
was the prompt answer.
I see you're a rebel, too, Miss Heath.
But liere conies the Colonel," said Haw
don, as he saw that worthy coming from
the stable.
Tliey entered tlie house and went into
a small room to hold a consultation.
Kate drought they might have some
thing important to say, so she resolved
to nlfij- tlie part of eavesdropper. She
told her mother of her intention, who
approved of it, ami Kate placed herself

Kate listened
to the Urilous' nlmis
with a wildly
beating lieart, and she
resolved to savo the patriotic army.
When she heard tlio countersign she
left the door, and busied herself in her
household duties; and soon the two offi
cers emerged from the room.
"We must ko. Miss Heath: hut first
let me thank you for vour kindness."
said Itawdou.

Their horses were smlillml. mid the
officers were soon on their way. Kate

to the stable. Her llect-footed horse
neighed as she entered, and she natted
him on the head and said, "Well, noble
Selim, you must etirrv me safely to
night; Tor nyoudo not, General Oreen
will be destroyed."
l ite animal seemed to undestand her.
for he gave a loud whinnv. Oiirheroine
saddled Selim. led him from the stable,
and was soon ridin" towards General
Green's camp, eight miles distant.
She road swiftly, forshe wanted to reach
ner destination in time to let the uatri-
otic general form his men to meet the
assault. The British pickets were four
miles distant, and she would be com
pelled to pans through their lines, but
as sue was in nossession of the counter
sign, she did not fear the result. Soon
Kate saw tlie picket's bayonet gleam
in me moonlight. aim licaniliimcrvoui.
"Who goes thertr."'
"A friend, witli the countersign."
"Advance, friend, and give tlieconn
terslKii." She approached the picket, and whis
pered "r.ugland!"
"HiKht; wss on. I5ut stop!" cried the
picket, as he caught a glimpse of her
faee.
Kate Mopped her horse and laid her
hand on a pistol. The jiicket ap
proached, ami said, "Is that you, .Mis
Heath?"
"It is, Guy," exclaimed Kate; forshe
recognized the soldier to lie Guy Jack
son, who had often visited the gardener
at their house.
"Where are you going to-night, Miss
Kate?" he asked.
"To see Mrs. lilako; she is very ill."
"Just like you, Miss Kate always
visiting the sick; you're a ministering
angel," said the ISritish soldier.
'Thankyou for the compliment, Guy.
I.ut I must be going. Good-night."
And Kate was again on her journey,
while the picket returned to his post.
She had to jiass four miles yet ere she
would be safe, so she urged on her steed.
Uefore she had gone a hundred yards
from Guy Jackson a dozen mounted
liritons rode furiously up to tiie nieket
and the lender cried out, "Iid any per
son liass this post a short time since'."'
it, Mr, was lilts iiiuiiuis repiv.
"Do you know who it was?"
"I do; it was Miss Heath."
"Had she the countersign?"
"She had?"
"I fear she is safe. Forward men: If
she escapes Gen. Green is saved! A
hundred golden guineas and a commis
sion to the man that catches her!" cried
the leader of the Imnd, as they dashed
utter tlie umve girl, leaving the picket
in a state of bewilderment.
Kate soon heard the sound of her pur
suers and she pushed on faster. It was
a race for life or death. Tlie ISritish
horses were fresh while hers was begin
ning to show signs of fatigue.
"Forward, Selim! You must take me I
to Gen. Green's camp!" said Kate to her
iiuirv.
15ut her enemies gained upon her, and
one of them seemed bent on catching
her, for he was some yards in advance
or ins comrades. Kate hoard the om
inous tramp of his horse, ami drew her
pistol. Kcarer he came, until lie was
at her side, and then cried out, "Halt,
you vile rebel ?"
These were his last words, for Kate
fired and the bullet crashed through his
brain. The others did not stop to look
at their dead comrade, but pressed on.
They neared her again, and another
trooper received his dentil wound. Tlie
remainded halted, and a moment after
wards Kate heard the American pickets
cry out, "Who goes there?"
"Kate Heath!" cried our herofnc, as
she dashed through the line.
The soldier hud raised his gun, but
when he heard her name it was lowered,
anil lie answered, "All right?"
The American camp was readied:
Kate threw herself from the saddle, anil
placed her faithful horse in charge of a
soldier.
"Where is general Green's tent ?" she
asked.
"To the right, there, where you see
that light," replied the man, pointing to
the place.
She entered the General's tent, and
found him engaged in writing. He
raised his eyes then rose to his feet, and
said : "You come here at a late hour,
Miss Heath."
"T do, General. You are in danger."
"How is that?" nxelaiined Green.
Tlie brave girl told her story, and the
general grasped her hand, while tlie
tears trickled down his war-worn cheeks.
"Thank heaven! yon have saved my
army. Miss Heath! I can never repay
yon!"

"In a few minutes, General."
"Good-bye, and may you have a safe
journey," responded Green, shaking her
by tho hand.
Her horse was. led forth, and she was
soon on the way to her home, which was
reached in safety.
Kate Heath lived to see the war cIom?,
and peace and plenty spread their wings
over the land, and not long afterwards
she was wedeu to AYaiter Gordon, who
had been a Colonel in the American
army.
A story is told of a father in a church
who, when the marriage service came
to the iint where tho clergyman asks,
"Who givetii this woman to be married
to this mail?" replied, "Well, sir, lam
called upon to do it, although it do go

Struggling Witli the World.
A young lady who has been teaching
school for a Jiving in the cat, full of
the quenchless veannug for a wide Hold
aud fair play, tells a story which it
would he well for those having voice
and authority in such matters to heed.
On tlie threshold of ncr career, iiuuing
that one obstacle to her success was the
dilfercnce in the amount paid to a man
and a woman for the same lauor, Mie
complained to a friend, who quoted
r.. ..!,.! rr,i.-tr,- in im "Tliow Is 'mnm
There is 'room
enough up-stairs.' If you would receive
better wages, lit yoursou ior a niguer
position. Jlo you not see inai you are
surrounded" bv an incompetent host.
Come up higher!" She had long la
mented the fact that so many of her sis
ter teachers worked on from year to year i
in a irroove. neither ImnrovinK their
own minds nor learning better methods
for the development of those intrusted
to them. She knew that many of them
were deserving pity more than blame,
because the time employed for gentle
man teachers for rest ami recreation
must be used by them in sewing ami
housework, on account of their small
salaries. She determined to find a place
"up-stairs," if untiring elforts would se
cure it. Her days were spout in school,
and much of tlie night over her books.
Time and money were spent in visiting
llrst-ciiiss schools, studying the best
methods of school government, and the
simplest anil clearest way of imparting
instruction. After long mouths of toil,
she felt and knew Unit she wa master
of her work, and looked for the reward
of her labors. After t'jaehing one or two I
terms, she applied for a position as first
assistant in a school, ami a lew nays ai
tenvard was waited upon by the presi
dent of the iKianl, who informed her
that uion strict inquiries tliey had dis
covered that she was competent to con
duct tho school herself. Ujkhi the recep
tion of this news her heart beat with
joy, as she felt that she had reached tlie
"nom up-stairs." Filled witli this
thought, and thankful that her efforts
were to be crowned with success, she did
not think of the remuneration until
asked what pay she expected, when she
inquired what tliey had usually paid,
when she was informed that sho was a
woman, and this was an experiment.
They had paid a man, tho last year,
seven hundred dollars for six months,
but proposed to try her for three months
at lil'ty-live dollars a mouth, telling her
that, if she succeeded, her pav would be
raised at the end of that time. This
time passed quickly, when the school
was pronounced a success, tiie board in- I
forming her that such entire satisfaction !
had never been given before. 1'ari'nts
noble corps of assistants who had worked
out nor plans so ablv: ami with cheerful
endeavor tho work of the venr went on.

iially closed, as did tiie first. Tlie large
boys and younsr men who lind Imi her
pupils, and had finished their school
days tinder her leaching, gathered about
her witli tearful eyes and thanked her
with trembling litis fur her untiring ef
forts in their behalf. The girls vied
with each other in ollering tokens of
love and respect, while all expressed the
hope Hint she might be with them tlie
wining year. With mingled feelings of
joy and sorrow she closed her school
room door, hair wishing the long vaca
tion over and herself ready for work
again. Tlie secretary of the board, in
giving her tlie onler for the Inst term's
iwy, waxed eloquent over her success;
hut when she glanced at the paper he
gave her, and found only fifty-live dol
lars allowed per mouth, he hmi nothing
more to say. and referred her to the
president, who informed her she had
done nobly, telling her the school had
never been so well conducted, and that
she had saved them lots of money. Upon
her asking if lie had not agreed that she
should have her salary raised tiie second
term, he said: "Wellyes: JJut we
talked it over and concluded that liftv
five dollars was rnou(i fur a irom'tn!"
This conversation took place in Mr.
I'' '3 bank, just at the hour of closing.
At the door, in a carriage, waited his el-egaiitly-dressed
daughter. Our "teach
er" felt almost wicked as she passed her
with her father's words In her ears
"enough for a woman!" There was no
written contract, ami she was helpless.
Hitter tears were shed in the solitude or
her room that night, mr she felt that
she must seek work elsewhere. They
would gladly have employed her anoth
er year, in onler that they might save
" otsof money;" but, finding her ser
vices could not be secured for less than
they gave a man, they let her go. Anil
this is too generally the ease j tH0
management or such matters. God
siicctl the day when ability, not sex,
slinll decide the question oration and
pay; when the key to the "room ui
staire" may r be held by tho. competent
to. judge of the merits of those who
would enter.
