With this ol ject in view a large body of the Kind's troops marched secretly to the spot, while a guaboat, heavily armed aud manned a full crew of sailors, proceeded with like scercxy to blockade the mouth of the inlet and prevent her escape to sea George Bartlett, though not detailed to this dufy, volunteered to join the party, and the troops commenced their march across - the country to s'-a-vard at dusk in the evening, expecting to reach the inlet and accomplish their purpose before midnight. TLtir intention, however, became known to the patriot troops at Charleston. Warning was sen to Captain Liuan, and a large body of patriots marched at the same time to check the King's troop?, and by taking them by sur prisii. probably to succeed in routing them with gr at less Ileury Wilder, the brother Oi' Tit - KKTi)M"TIO.. i;V w'ai.te:: '..akt'.n' k. riiAi-Tca ii. nr.Tal'l 1jV::i"i:i svry of h:- a'vMiture becune iputi' n hiTO w!icn r-'cr of capture that entirely int-rruptrd. :;t so cr-- it w th." .: !i:nierc" w-xs ri!'"i "r-t T 1 t h ?

I was late in December, and the winter was unusually severe Snow had fallen abundantly, even in that southern lati tude, and lay deep on the rude, ill-constructed roads, filling up ditches, concealing land- marks, and rendering travel perilous even in daylight. But, nothing daunted, or, at least, maintaining an outward aspect of composure, and commending herself to the protection of Heaven, Mary Wilder went forth alone. The night was pitchy dark , the wind blew keenly from the north, and mingled mow and rain was falling fast, and freezing as it touched the ground. She had not, however, mere than two miles to walk to reach the tory camp ; and as she had set out as soon as it grew dark she felt sure of being in season for her purpose. At length she reached the outer picket of the camp. A sentry challenged her gruffly. She heard the ring of his musket as he bought the butt end to his shoulder, and a sudden thrill of terror darted through her. What if the man should fire and kill her on the spot ? It is strange but she frequently said afterwards, when refer ring to this desperate night journey, that even at that moment she felt more alarm at the thought of what would be said of her; of what construc tion would be put upon her motives when her corpse came to be recogniz-d than of anything else. Mustering up courage she assumed the tones of a negress and answered the challenge as loud as she was abL " A friend. I b'long to the camp ; let me pass I am half frozeu to death." " What ! is that you. Aunt Sally V sai l the soldier, fancying that he recognized the voice. ' Yes," she answered, though she dreaded lest the man should approach near enough to discern her features. What the d 1 are you doing out on such a night, eh V7 continued the sentry; " up to some to tho lieutenant, telling him that a young lady desired to see him. George Bartlett, who was 'conversing with a group of young officers, gave a start of surprise and immediately left the party, amidst the jests ; of las comrades. " A young lady V he said to the major, catch ing a glimpse of Mary's coarse attire. j " Yes, sir so she appears to be. I hope," ad : ded the major, somewhat sternly, " that she has no cause of complaint against you, poor young thin;. Ilowever, such things will be, I suppose. Be quick, sir. We march in a few minutes.' George Bartlett approached Mary with aston ishment depleted upon Ids countenance, for he could not conceive what had brought a young woman to the camp at that liour to see him ; but whe he saw her face and recognized her, his as tonishment was changed 'ntj utter amazement. " Miss Wilder, you here I" be exclaimed, "and in this guis!" "George' said Mary, I have but a few words to say, and but a short time to say them in. You wonder to see me here. You have rea son ; but we may never meet again, and I have dared what toay be con.-idcred an unmaidenly ac tion to prevent a deed that, if it should occur, would causome lifelong misery " " Mary-Mis Wilder," interrupted the young man, " you'know that you have but to command and I will obey you know " . "Listen, peorge I may call you George, now, for this Wilkin all probability be our last inter view. Do pot interrupt me. You are going to march to-night on a secret expedition.

A feeling of litier cis3rpoii,T.nuut to the realization of Lis most dearly cherished hopes, united with an eager desire to revenge bis brother's death, urged George Bartlett to take an active part against Lis countrymen ; and to this end he tcc-ptcd a commission in the British army. and became noted in his regiment for his ani mosity towards those whom he termed the rebel ccVitiri. Meanwhile poor Mary Wilder suffered tcr- j nh.e iz Ciind. Her only brother had joined t-e revjlutionary army, while her lover was gating for King George; and she daily ex pcied to hear that tbe two beings dearest to hsr npan earth had met each other in battle. Altl. jugh a native of New York, she had long resiled at the South, and had at this period joined a society of ladies iu Charleston, South Cc!iua, who bad formed themselves into a '!ub U furnish carmcnts and such other nc Varies as women were best fitted to supply to tie patriot soldiers. when she thought that by an act of daring courage she might be enabled to prevent thc collision she so much dreaded. She deter mined to go in disguise to the royalist camp and serk an interview with George Bartlett. She risked insult from the- rude soldiery perhaps worse , but such risks were constant ly rnr at that period must always bo antici pated in time of war; aud abovft all, in civil war, which, from its nature frequently op posing brother to brother, friend to friend especially calls forth the interference of wo man as aa intercessor and peace maker. Be sides, she was strong in the consciousness of innocence. " 'lis said that a lion will turn and flee From a maiden in the priele of her purity." The brutal, hireling soldiers of the KiDg might jest and taunt, but they would desist if she passed by without noticing them ; and. at the worst, George Bartlett would not see ner harmed. So 6he agreed within her own mind and attiring herself in the garb of a menial servant, with a basket on her arm, as if she was carrying some trifling articles for sale to the troop, she set forth alone, having resol ved to take no one into her confidenco, lest they might attempt to dissuade her. or per haps take measures to prevent her errand. She had beard that the soldiers wcro to inarch at eight o'clock.

Tereaps Mar3' might have been sti'd more rudely treated, but, by good fortune, at this mo ment the drum beat to quarters, aud an officer came forward to learn what was thc cause of the elisturbance.

The ofneer was an elderly man, of benignant visage He looked pityingly upon the blushing girl, aud a faint sigh escaped him as he replied " I am sorry to tec a young lady such as ycu appear to be in the camp.

The bugle sounded as he spoke, and it was im perative that he should -instantly j:n his com pany. " Now, tlear Mary, he added. farewell. You must go; but on such a night!" " Tear not for me, George," said tho young girl. ' I can rcturu as I came hither. I go, and we must not meet again. I will trust you, George. You will net harm my brother. Oh, do nct meet him if you can avoid it." She heid out her hand. The yovr'4 man pressed it tenderly and reluctantly turrrd away to join his comrades, leaving Mary alone in the tent. The young lieutenant sought bis Colonel and related the particulars of the interview with Mary, in so far as she had spoken of the purpose of the patriots to frustrate thc object of the night march. He anticipated a reprimand, but to Lis relief the Colonel treated the intelligence lightly. 1 " It is but the whim of a love sick girl," he said, smiling at the young officer. " Scouts have been sent out and Lave just returned. I do not believe there is any fear of a surprise. The young lady yoa speak of has perhaps heard some thing which has led her to fear for your safety. I should liked to have seen her, though. She must be a brave girl How will she reach home on such a night 1 Still, my plans are so well laid that I have no feais of the result. Let them come. They will be caught in their own traps." f To be continued.
