E. Ana(Oilman' (Calt.. RALPH LEONARD, OP., Marion and his Men. During the dark hour of the 'American 11,1 , v - olution, few men spread more terror among the ranks of the English soldiery than Gen. Fran cis Marion. Unlike most of the officers of note belonging to the Continental ostablishment, who .came out, as a British colonel once express ed it, and fought like christians and gentlemen in the open field,' Marion preferred another course of action. Lying secreted among his men in the swamps and almost impervioill for ests of the South, he would sally forth by . niOit with his well tried band, scamper across the moonlit plains, and making a sudden and UIICN_ peeled rush•upon the enemy, spread confusion and dismay among his ranks. At the period at which we are writing there were two parties in the Carolinas, one loyal to King George and opposed to the war, and were known by the title of Tories, the other ready to stake their all upon the great game of indepen dence and known as Whigs. A feeling of bitter animosity bad had become engendered in the .hearts of those two parties against each other, and acts of cruelty were as common as the withered leaves upon the forest trees in Autumn. nail) Leonard, the hero'of our tale, was a fine young man of ;bout twenty-five, with an easy, dignified carriage, an interesting, intelligent countenance, and a smile as sweet as his frown was terrible when he had occasion for anger.— lle belonging to the Whig party, and hated the tories with a bitterness which increased with every act of atrocity on their part, and made him a most formidable enemy to their success. In the early part of this war he had joined the fiery Marion as a private, but his talents were quickly apprehended by the General, and he was taken as his aid with the naminal rank cf Captain. ~Willet Lounsbury was a man of about f, with_ coal black hair, slightly sprinkled with grey, an erect and martial figure, and bright keen eye that gave a bold expression to his swarthy features.—He was shunned by a large portion of the inhabitants and he often elltresc•- ed his Contempt for all around him with a bit ter sneer. Most people had sort of awe oflim and seemed rather to wish to cultivate this feel ing than to do away with it by any act of cour tesy on their part. He was crabbed and .surlish to a degree,and to used roam abciut the fields in'a sullen mood, muttering to himself and growling about something or other continually, as though ho was discontented with himself and all the world around him. He was unmarried, for his unsocial habits were not 'well Calculated to win the confidence or affections of any female, and so lived on the loneliness of a small farm left him by his deceased mother, rather shunned and avoided by his neighbors whom.he seemed to wish to keep at a distance. In the neighbor hood where young Leonard and Lounsbury re sided, there dwelt an opulent farmer by the name of Hewitt, who, had owned a large nuin of slaves, and had become noted to.all the coun try around ,by his hospitality and courteous bearing. Many were the visitors who frequented the Colonel's mansion, and at times it seemed more like a large hot(' than the dwelling of a country gentleman. "Whether the smiles of a planter's daughter had anything to do with the drawing thithei so many people, I leave it to my readers to determine. Mary Hewitt—thou west a sweet girl, Mary, with thy bright black eyes, thy finely rounded form, and dark brown %air, that hung in ring lets round thy oval bronette cheeks. Yes thou was pretty, else why did so many young men call to inquire after the health of the Colonel ? Surely they must have felt an uncommon deep interest in the old gentleman's welfare, did they not ? And why before the breaking out of the war, did young Ralph Leonard used to spend so many winter evenings at the mansion 1— Ah ! Mary I suspect that thou has much to answer for. Those bright black eyes I fear looked too deeply into the heart of my young hero, or he would not thus be hanging about thy home. • IY was the beginning of the year 1776 and, the war of the 4evolution was drenching the fields of .America in blood, and many of her bravest and noblest slept a sleep that knows no *eking. In a little lane leading from the mansion of Col. Hewitt to the highway, two young persons might have been seen walking arm in arm towards a noble steed that stood ready saddled and hitched to a huge poplar, which threw its shadow to the ground. It was nbout nine 'clockin the evening, and the moon was shininedown brightly through the crisp wintry air; and its rays fell like showers of 11. quid silver on the frozen waters of many a ea- . tering stream, and lighted' up the countenances of the two individeels as they strolled downthe a..

And so Ralph, you have decided to enter the army, and join the valient Marion "?' said the lady, whom the reader will luau e no difficulty in conjecturing, was none other than Mary Hewitt. Well sorry as I ant to part with you, I cannct but commend your resolution. The country now requires the service of every arm that can wield a sword, and dearly . as I lore you, I can not lint let my feelings detain you from the right path and from your duty.' Alt, can I forget thee, Mary ! But as you say; I must go where my country needs men.— The tories are mustering their forces and com mitting, depredations throughout the State ; and last night I heard the villain Loinsbury had gone off and joined the loyalists. If I ever meet with that fellow I will---' I suppose that you did know that lie was rival of yours ?' Not 1, indeed, I supposed he was callous to female charms.' It seems you were mistaken then. No longer than the night before last he did me the boffir to come here and make me an offer of his hand. As for his heart I suppose that he has none to give.' If he had one it is of steel. But what answer did you make him ?' Oh, you know well enough Ralph ! But in my refusal I was as gentle and courteous as I well could be, I did not wish to wound his feelings too much.' And he appreciated your delicacy ?' Indeed he did not. He flew into a violent passion, turned almost black in the face with rage, swore he would marry me sometime or another, and left in a towering passion.' Mary, that Lounsburry is a dangerous fellow. He meditates mischief, and it would be well for you to be upon your guard. If he has as reported gone oil and joined the loyalists he may have it in his power to du you a lasting injury. You must be on your guard.' shall be watchful lore. But it is'getting chilly here, I must go back to the house, for Dither will be wonnering, what has become of me. Good night and may God bless you and return you in safety to my arms ?' The next moment the steed was galloping along the highway, bearing the erect and stately rider, while the fair young girl hastened back to her father's home. No sooner had the spot become silent than the person of a man was seen descending the large poplar tree, under which the lovers had been conversing. It was none other than Willet Lounsberry, and he had been concealed amongst the:branches of the tree, and he overheard every word that had been uttered. A rifle was hung over his shoulder, and in a. black leather girdle was stuck a brace of heavy horse pistols and as he came out from the shadow of the tree, and the moonbeams fell upon his face, there was some thing diabolical in the working of his features. ' So, so,'. muttered he with an oath. I have found out the reason for the aversion of Mary Hewitt - to myself, and he calls me a villain does he ? Hell find out that if I have the name I'll have the game as well. And as for th little brunette lynx-if she does not bee e Mrs. Lounsbury, it will be because there' • no chap ,in the loyalist corpse to ma her so ?' And with an imprecation he starte off over the fields towards the great forest, whose dim out lines could be just distinguished in the silver moonlight. •. In the depths of that forest the loyalists or tories, some six or seven hundred in number, had formed an encampment, from which they used to sally forth and cornmit,_4l-sorts of depredations upon the Whigs, nor Ate ( re they always scrupulous either as to whether a man espoused the British or American cause, if he chanced to have much Valuable property in his possession which was easy to be trans fered to their camp. The commander of this delectable corps was one Hugh Lindsay, a des perate fellow, who like the wandering Arabs had for years drawn sword against society and all and order, but being of determined bra very, and Herculean strength, he had commen ded himself to the tory party by several deeds, and been chosen their leader by acclamation. On the night to which •we have alluded, Lindsay had retired to his bed, when it was announced to him that a man had made his appearance at the out-posts, and had expressed a desire to see him without a moment's delay. The captain therefore rose and dressed himself and ordered that the stranger should be admit ted. A moment more, and Willet Lounsburry was ushered into his presence. ' Well,' said Lindsay, grutily, for he did not like being called up, ' what is the important business that has brought you to my camp at this unseasonable hour I' ' ' I am desircnis of joining your band.' • Surely yini need not have disturbed me after I had turned in about such a matter.

On that condition I will join you.' Enough sail—good night then ; I will turn in again.' Ralph Leonard, on leaving the premise: Col. Hewitt, repaired at once to the head-qt ters of Marion. Ile was encamped in the vi midst of a dark zwatnp,..upoaaltae i ,iiit surrounded by stagnant pools. Our pot hero could not but admire the spirit of patriot ism which prompted men to leave behind them comfortable homes, and take up their abode in such a lonely and pestilental spot, and proceed ing to the rude log hut of the general, he made knowit his wishes, and quickly enrolled as one of his band. It was not long ere Ralph had an opportunity of distinguishing himself in an engagement with a party of loyalists, detached from the main body encamped in the forest, to procure forage for their horses, and so impressed Was Marion with the prowess of our hero, that he at once made him his aid, with the rank of captain, as before stated. . The general was extremely anxious to make I an attack upon the tory camp, commanded by Lindsay, who was a bitter personal enemy of •his, and for some days prior to the arrival of Ralph Leonard he had been making arrange ments for effecting his object. Our hero, as aid to the general was of course cognizant of all his plans, and it was not long pre a circumstance occurred which induced .him to urge his com mander to delay his meditated assault uporithe tory camp. It Was a dark and rainy night in the latter. part of 1770, and the family of Col. Hewitt were sunk in slumbers, notwithstanding the' proxi mity of the loyalist camp, and the dangers to which they were hourly exposed. It was one of those tempests known as an equinoctial storm, and the wind shrieked ' and howled around the mansion, as if warning the inmates that trouble was at hand. As the clock struck the hour of midnight, a loud rapping on the door awakened the colonel, and he put his head out of an upper window, and inquired what was wanted. What was his horror on beholding, by a flash of lightning that for a moment illumi• noted all around, his lane 'filled with - armed men: ' Open the door you rebel ! open the door !' shonted the - voice of the leader, but it was the fast Words ho ever uttered. The colonel had aimed his trusty rifle at him—and flasha sharp report, 'a loud groan, and Lindsay sank to the earth a corpse. • ' Rush on, my men ! rush on, and burst open, the door !' called out Lounsbury, who the day before, had been elected the lieutenant of the 'band, and whb now by the fall of Lindsay had become the chief, rush on !,..there's plenty of money and plate in ,the house—plenty of good liquor, rush on, my boys !' Again the deadly rifle sent its sharp report upon the stormy night, but this time it missed its mark. A.hugo tory by the side Of Louns bury was struck down pierced through the . heart, but the leader escaped ! Crow t apere now rushing against the dbor with . .otheir might, but still it did tot give way. The old rifle from the upper window was sending death andslestructioti among the ranks of - the tories, whose powderhail becOme wet by the storm so that they could not return the :Olie-after the other' they had fallen to thlt earth, while efforts were being made to stave le door, but still, however it did not give way. The rifle continued to do its work with 'ost unerring . certainty. Every discharge brought down a loyalist, and at length fear spread among them. Lounsbury now bethought him of a plan to open the door, and immediately acted upon it. Taking a heavy rail from the fence he ordered ten men to seize it and used it as a sort of battering ram . to burst open the door from its hinges. In this he at last suc ceeded, and the miscreants came pouring into the house, not sorry to escape the terrible rifle of the colonel. An indiscriminate slaughter no ensued.— On first entoring..Lounsbury had placed a sen tinel over the door of Mary's chamber. which - ••-,er in those stormy days. And by the light of that burning mansion did those armed miscreants take their depart ure, bearing with them upon a sort of rude litter the pale form of Mary Hewitt, who was now re stored to consciousness, but who prayed that she might be permitted to share the fate of her murderer father. But to this Lounsbury would not consent. Ito assured her that a brighter destiny was in store for her, that she was destined to become the bride of the loyalist leader, and that she ought to consider herself as highly honored in being thus selected from all the world beside. To these remarks the un fortunate girl made no reply, as it was not long ere the tories arrived at their encampment in the midst of the forest. Here Mary was confined in a strong log build ing, which Lounsbury had constructed for that purpose, and where he informed her she would remain until the ensuing Sunday evening, when she was either to wed him voluntarily, or else be married against her will. But innocence will usually find a friend even when in the most helpless state. It chanced the very negro which liounsbury appointed to attend upon Mary, had once belonged to her father. The negro expressed no little sympa thy for the misfortunes of his former mistress. and a desire to serve her. Mary accordingly wrote a long letter to Ralph Leonard, detailing the particulars of the outrage, and dispatched the faithful negro with it to the camp of Marion. • At last the fatal Sabbath eve arrived, on which Lounsbury declared she was to become his wife. A large party was assembled at the tent of the leader, the accommodating chaplain was in attendance, and Mary was led in as pale as a ghost, and more dead than alive, to perform her part of the ceremony. . But at the instant when she was about to be helped up to go through with the solemn mocke ry, a loud cry was heard at the outposts. ' Marion is upon us !' cried the officer, rush ing into the tent. It was indeed Marion's men, who came hewing down the loyalists as the western pioneer hews down the trees of the forest, and taken by surprise as they were, they made but feeble resistance. Almost all the force was slain.or captured, and Lounsbury fell by the hand of Ralph Leonard. But Marion would have his whims gratified ; so gathering his - Officers together beneath the tent of the tory chief, he compelled the renegade clergyman to perform the : marriage ceremony his young aid and• Mary Hewitt, in the pre- 4ience of the dying Lounsbury, who ,was con-'` scions of what was going on, and gnashed Id= teeth with rage, as his wild spirit departed fbrever. • • (13 11 Why do you set your cup of oottbo on the chair, Mr. Jones 7" said a,worthylandbidy one morning at breakfast.

It is not a bird of prey, but lives entirely upon grain, like the gal linacia. When full grown, it measures two . feet from the end of its tail to the tip of its beak.— The tail has four or five feathers tipped with white. Its feet are furnished with four toes, two in front and two behind; and all are guard ed with sharlt, needle-like claws. The color of the bird is a mottled, yellowish gray, milt rarely attains the weight of a pound. Its beak is two and a halfinches long, and very harden(' sharp. When this bird finds a rattle snake—and rat tlesnakes arc to be found in great numbers in., Southern California; wherever the ground is covered by the cactus plant—it immediately proceeds, with the greatest caution and des patch, to gather the fallen cactus fruit, antrdry lobes, and quietly enclose him in, to the height of a fool or more—l he spikes and spines of the . plant, strong and sharp as needles, serving as an insurmountable barrier, to the escape of the snake. > This being accomplished, the bird gath ers with its claws and feet the young cones of • the pine which arc midi - cad-and heavy as stones, and hovering over its enemy, lets them fall one by one, from a height of--five or six feet, upon. the infuriated viper, who, surrounded by prie, kles and points wher.ev-ra-tte tams r igsoon fully aroused to avarilanger of his position.
