LEIPHIC, Ohio. - It was midnight in East Tennessee, not the night of nature, but the middle of that dark and detestable night during.which that persecuted re-= gion was crushed under the Davis despotism. It was political midnight in East Tennessee. It was nearly twilight, when a young man and a young girl sat at the open window of a fine man. sion dear a pleasant little village—a village now" almost swept out of existence by the Sirocco. breath of war. The girl was Mary, Basham, en orphan, who, with her brother RichiLtd, had inherited the splen did property of her parents, consisting mostly of land and slaves. The greater part of the slaves had been left to her brother; but the mansion be longed to them 'in common, and she also owned a sum in Louisville bank shares. Her brother had taken up arms to protect his property, as he said, and he probably thought, and was then a Captain of Confederate guerillas. Mary BaSham was considered a ."great 'catch," and it was cer tainly strange, if- not improper, in Mrs. Grundy's eyes, that she shOuld love that fair-haired young man who sat by ker side ut the open window, for Ernest Felder had no riches, except a fair share of talent, and a true, honest heart. I e was only a music teacher, and a German at that. Conse quently he was worse than a Yankee, and a mar raige with him would be as bad a mesalliance as Mary Basham could make.• "You are foolish, Ernest," said the girl, as she plucked a flower from the vine and pulled it to pieces. "What is the Union to you, that you are so anxious to make yourselfa martyr for its sake Besides, what can you do for the Union by hiding out in the woods and mountains, and being bunt ed down at last, and hung_ or shot, or imprisoned ? So for, although you have been subject to annoy ances, you have escaped harm; andrno*, if you will simply submit to the neworder of things, all till be well, and you will not be troubled." "The Union is everything to me, Mary Bash sahrthe young man, 'for it sheltered me and its flag protected me when I came to this country an exile; and under the Union I have en joyed the fruit of any labor, and have been happy arid contented. It would-be worse than ingrati tude to desert it now, because I happen to be among its enemies." "Then you will leave-me," said the girl, as she tore a flower - passionately. 1 "I must, Mary, unless you can be convinced `that it is politic as well as right to seek peace and safety on Union ground. But that is not to be expected, and I do not wonder at you, being a slave owner." "0, bother the slaves," broke in the impetuous girl. "They are more trouble than they are worth, and always were. Dick Basham is wel. come to all of them, if he wants them, except Hessy and little Jim. I always felt as if I belong to them more than' they belong to me, and the feeling is irksome. But as for those guerilla bands like that of Brother Dick's, they are a disgrace to the country!, and ought not to be permitted. Dick has said'he meant to Ming his gang of ruf fians here same night, and give them a supper— AS if I would stay in the house where these wreteh es are holding their drunken orgies! I dared him to do it. Humph ! he talks so much about the blood of the Bashams—let him try to commit such an outrage on common decency and he will find that there is as much blood of the Basham'h in my veins as in his. • I will let master officer knOw, that I am not to be frightened by him." The conversation was here interrupted by a rough looking man, dre,ssed in brown homespun, badly-tattered, and carrying a long rifle, upon his shoulder, who came hurriedly over the lawn to ward. the house. Hardly stopping to knock he entered the front door, and pushed into the,room where Mary Basham and Ernest Feldetwere talking. "Beg pardon, Miss," said he pulling a slouched hat from au unkempt head, and resting the but of his rifle upon the carpet;, "sorry to come is .so sudden like, but I havn't time for perliteness. Mr. Felder, the guerrillas has been huutia for you in the village, and they ken trot. So there ain't no time for tradia' horses, of you want to git off?' ' "It has come sooner than I expected, Mary," said Ernest, as he started up, "I must bid you farewell now, and perhaps forever:' If I can reach. the Federal lines safely I will try to get word to you." - "No use talkie' about the" Federallines now, Mr. Felder," said the rough looking man, " for here's the guerrillas." As he spoke, abonttwenty horsemen, dressed in homespun imitation of the Confederate tuai fdru, rode up the street, and halted in front of the mansion. They were a villainous,setlito look at, and were armed with all sorts of weapons, from a hunting rifle to a flint-lock pistol. At their head rode a young man in the guy uniform of a Confederate officer, whose Beat in the saddle was quite unsteady. " They are'part of Dick Basham's gang " said Mary, as she cooly surveyed them from the win dow, "and he is drunk, gait., Phi be bound. It is enough to destroy any man's respect for himself ; to associate with ouch wretches, and.l should think nothing could induce a gentleman as Dick Basham used to be, to do it." "Come, Ben Sterling," said Felder, who bad hastily seized his hat, " we can yet escape by the back way." ' - "No!" exclaimed the girl as her eye shot fire. " You CFI' do no such a thing, forthey have al ready. surrounded the house. Come now you two, you are men, and )ou have arms, and if it conies to the worst, you know how to sell your lives dearly. But let me do my part first, for I tell you that not a man of that gang shall cross this threshold while Mary Basham lives! Mr. Feldar, gave me one of your pistols." Quite overborne by . the intrepidity and energy of the high spirited girl, Ernest Felder almost mechanically. handed her a pistol. As quick as thought, she brought out from an adjoining - closet large tin can filled with powder, carried it into the hall, threw open the door, uud stood there, with pistol in hand, _proud and defiant, and beau tifulin her pride and defiance. Captain Basham, with four of his rough troop ers, dismounted, and walked toward the house. The path was 'hardly wide eumigh for the gallant ca ptain, whom a commission as a lieutenant geM eral could not have induced to walk in a straight line. But, ho staggered. on, until he was brought to a sudden pause by the ringing voice ui his sis ter. ' "Halt there, Dick Bnobaiiii" 'exclaimed the indignant girl. "'What do you want here . , with : that pack of dirty hounds at your hells? - 14Cd2C of your ragamuffin cut-throat's shall enter this house-; nor shall you until you areiober: , .. - "Don't befooliab, Mary," hiccoughed the offi cer.

Well, shemuat have her way thii time, end we will have Chances enough to catchthelhatchman." "We are going now, Mary," he continued, "but you will be sorry for this, and if you have so far forgotten your position and, your duty its to fait in love withithat pianotmier, both he mid you shall pay dearly for it". - . "Never fear bat that I can take care of my po sition and my -duty, Dick BaShatn," said the girl, as the grierrillas mounted their horses - and rode away. Wher it Was fairly :MAI Felder bade Mary Bonham goodbye, and went to the hills with Ben Sterling. Mary sent her boy Jim with theca; to bring word if they got off safely; dad When the boy returned she sent him back &their tem porary, hiding place, with two horses and a sup ply of provisions. ' Erneit: Felder, after much- and and some; narrow escapes, reached the Federal liwi in safe ty. Finding a number Of his old friends hi the cavalry force, some of them in higlicrank; WOW ed that arm of the seriice; and as he hadathedengh military ,education, and ,was as brave as a man may well be, his promotion was quite rapid; io that in the course of time he was known aalifajoi Felder, mamas spoken of as a very promising officer. It was many long months after the midnight of East Tennessee, before the gleam of Union bay onets and the flash of Union sabres began to padre a very pleasant sort of sunrise in that region. In the advance - Of the grand array,'which at lastesr ried relief and protection to that petatecated peel ple was a fine squadron of cavalry, which .ocoa pied, after a slight resistance, the village -near which Mary Basham lived. This squadron was commanded by Major Ernest Felder.- , . Dick Basham had been killed while making a brave bat desperate: defence against the over whelmbx force of the Federal!. when th 4 enter ed the v lag.e; and bia sister, althotigkshe did not love him as she formerly had, was indignant at his death, and resolved to revengek if she weld' find a shadow of excuse far .so doing. So With. the "blood of the Basharas" boiling m her veins, she seated herself at the window Where: she and Ernest had sat so many months before. More 'troops came pouring into_ the- village, among them an infantry regiment, all tired "and .hungry.! An army on the march , seldom treats very . tenderly the country througliwifich it puma, nor is discipline always preserved as it should be. Some of these men were excited by liquor, and others were foraging about as they. chose. A number of. them - made, their appearanixt Mary *wham's fine mansion, and commenced a raid upon the pigs and _poultry Mary uattea them off, but they laughed at her i and Ordered beX to open the door, threatening to creak it open if she refesed. .She again warned them' off, and leveled her gun at the foremostman. The laugheitand advanced_ toward the door with rail to burst it open. Mary Baahiun coolly sihted her piece, but as she drewthe trigger a fine-look ing fair-haired , officer rode up ba,front of the orderly soldier just in time to receive the ballet iii his shoulder. He fell from his horse; andbad only strength enough to order the men to protect-that house, and carry him in. It was Ernest Felder. When Mary Basham saw who it was that she had shot, she quite forgot the death otherbrother in this new calamity, and her coolness and-firm ness forsook her entirely. She did her beat, how- - ever, to cure the wound She had inflicted, and the presende of the wounded officer in thelotiae was the best pretection she could have had. It was two months before Ernest fully recovered, and when he was able to return - to duty, Mary Bash= felt that she was not forgetting her position in marrying the brave and talented officer. THE] MARRIED LIFE OF JOHN :WESLEY.— When Wesley settled, he said,i•lt would be more useful to marry." He married a widow, who, through her jealousy, led him d life of wretched ness and misery. At last his spirit was up, and he wrbte to her , ---"Know sne_tind know yourielf. Suspect me no more; provoke me no more; do not any longer contend for mastery, for power, moneror praise; be contentio he a private in significant person, known and! loved by God and me." -It is not likely that a !woman would be pleased at being recommended to be an insignifi coat person. After twenty yi , iirs disquietude, she one day left him. He bore' it philosophically. He went even beyond it; he took his diary and put the most pithy entry into it I ever met with us a diary : "Non cam rdiirtti,' 75(71: 'demisi, non reemabo," which may be translated thus: "I did not leave her; I did - not sealer away;, I shan't send fOr her back." And so ended the married life of aohn Wesley. I • Mossi.—The Empress Josephine was very food of perfumes, and, aboie all, of musk.
