Among the American Ladies who have

more celebrated than Mrs. Jamb Motlr, of
Carolina. Tho action by which sho saeri
fined her own properly to tho demands of
patriotism, was en graceful, so generous
and free, thaTlt nan occasioned her praises
to bo celebrated in all the histories of the

1701. when General Greene and ihn active
partisan officers. Lee. Marion and Sump

usually consisted of about one hnndred and
fifiv men, out which was now increased by
the accidental arrival of a detarhincnt ol
dragoons.- This body, on its way to Cam

had entered the For t a few hours before the
appearance of the American forces, led by
Marion and Lee, to besiege it. On another
'hill, opposite-to the not 111 side of the new
Mansion stood an old frame house, in which
Mrs. Motte had formally resided, and to
which she had been dismissed by Capt.
MnPherson. Upon this height Lee was
stationed with Ills corps, whilst Marion
occupied a position on tlietsastcrn declivity

six pounder, despatched by Green to the
aid of Marion: was mounted on a battery
by that officer for the purpose of raking the

Lee was preparing to attack. By the 10th

On the 1 till, the British general reached

Tlie preparation, of bows and arrows with

Lieutenant Colonel Lee and every officer
of his corps daily experienced the most
cheering and gratifying proofs of the hos
pitality of the owner of the beautiful rnau
hioii doomed to be thus destroyed, whilst
her politeness, her tonderness and her ac
tive benevolence extended lo the lowest in
the ranks.
'he destruction of private proverty was
ttl all times peculiarly distressing to the two
gallant commanders, and these considera
lions gave a new edge to the bitterness ol
the scena. Hut ibey were ever ready to
aacrifiee their feelings to their duty, and
Lee forced himsell to make himself a re

A SHREWD YANKEE.
The New York Sun relates the follow
ing anecdote of a shrewd Yenkee: 'some
time ago, tho steamboats running between
this city and Hartford carried passepgers
for S2.50, and charged mulling extra for
berths, excepting on Saturday nizhls
when an additional half dollar was demand
ed for his accommodation. A live Yankee
look passage at Hartford one Saturday
afternoon, paying the usual sum of two and
i half dollars lor his ticket; and at an early
hour in tho evening ho was observed dining
in the rabin, with his back against a post,
lasi asleep. He continued in this position
until Iweluc o'clock, when he awoke.

his boots, and 'turned in' tu iho best berth

course, had no 'extras' lo pav; and as he
had been 'broken of his rest' in the early
pail of ihe night, he was, of course, justifi
ed in making up for lost time in tho morn
ing. So lie snoozed awoy until ten o'clock
much lo the dissaiisfication of the chamber
maid, and then touk his deparluio, lulling
ihe captain he had 'never made half a

lays."
THE LAWYER & THE IRISHMAN
While a number of lawyers were dining
at Viscaset, Maine, a few years since a jol
ly scul from the Emerald Isle appeared and
called for a dinner. The landlord told him
ho should dino when the gentlemen were
done. Lei him crowd in among us,' whis
perod a limb of tho law, (Albert Smith, wo
believe) 'and wo will have some fun with
him.' The Irishman took his seat al the
table.
'You wtro not born in this country, my
friend?'
'No, sir, I was born in Ireland.'
'Is your father living'
'No, sir, ho is dead.'
'What is your occupation?'
'A hoiae jockey, sir,'
'What was your father's .occupation?'
'Trading horses, sir.'
'Did your father cheat ny one while
here?'
'I snpposo he did cheat many, sir.'
'Where do you suppose be went to?'
'To Heaven, sir.'
!And what do you suppose lis is doing
"here?'
'Trading hoiscs, sir.
'Has ho cheated any one thprp?'
'He has cheated one 1 believe.'
Why did shey not prosecute him?'
'Because they searched tho whole king
do n of Heaven and could'nt find a law
