THE HERO WOMAN.
Bx GEORGE LIPPAHD. In the shadow of the Wissahicon woods, not more than half a mile from the Schuylkill, there stood, in the tima of the Revolution, a quaint old fabric, built of mingled h's and stone, and encircled by a palissade wall. It had been erected in the earlier days ot Villiam Penn' perhaps some years before the great apostle of peace first trod our shores, as a blodk-house, intended as a defence against the Indians' And now it stood with its many roofs, its numerous chimneys, its massive square windows, its vailed front of logs and stone, its encircling wall, through which admittance was gained by a large and stoutly built rr-itn it i'.il in tbrt mblct rf tl-.n . . , a . . l'.' it ll nrfn.irnrii rvnfic? niuii.-'cinf, l I'irni-n 11 mm ii.'. Ulli lino VIIVIVCIII 1 L J I t.Uiail outline on every side. From its western window you could obtain a glimpse of the Schuylkill waves, while a large easement in the southern front commanded a view of the winding road, as it sunk out of view, under the shade of thickly clustered boughs, into a deep hollow not more than one hundred vards from the mansion. Herc, from the southern casement, on one of those balmy summer days, which look upon the dreary autumn, toward the close of November, a farmers daughter was gazing with dilating'eyesand half clasped hands. Well might she gaze earnestly to the south, and listen with painful intensity for the slightest sound. Her brothers were aivay with the 'army of Washington, and her father, a grim old veteran ho stood six f;et and three inches in his stockings who had maifested his love for tht red-1 coat invaders in many a desperate encounter had that morniug left her alone in the old mansion, alone in this small chamber, in charge of some amunition intended for a band of brave farmers, about to join the hosts of freed jm.

There Avas somethig very beautiful in that picturo! The form of the young girl, framed by the square, massive window, that contrast between, the rough timbers that enclosed he. and that rounded face. the lip and t: hop' parting, the hazel eve dilating, .;eek warming and flushing with ; fear; there was something very ! beau il til in that picture a Voting gir , . e , . , .

He was pursuod by a party of ten or more lirittish soldiers, who came rushing on, their bayonets fixed, as if to strike their victim down ere he advanced ten paces nearer to the house. On and on the old man came, while his daughter quivering with suspense, hung leaning from tho window. He is surrounded their muskets ire leveled at his head he is down, down at their feet, grappeli , i.,- i i . i i i m.'' for his lite! but look airain! He dashes hi foe aside, with one bold movement he springs through the gate; an instant, and it is locked; the ISritlish soldiers mad with rage; gaze upon the high wall of wood and ston, and vent their anger in drutiken curses. Now look to yonder window! Where the i "t .

That was a fine picture of an old veteran, nerved for his last fight a sioiit warrior, preparing for his death struggle. Death struggle? Yes, for the old man, Isaac Wanipo! lnd dealt too man- hard blows among the Diittsh Soldiers, nicked, foiled, and cheated them too oben to Cheap now I A few moments longer, and they weul1' he reinforced by a. strong party of refugees, the powder, the arms, in the old black-house, perhaps that daughter herself, was t3 be their reward. There was scarcely a hope for the old man, and yet he had determined to make a desperate fight. "We must blulfoff those rascals!" he said, with a grim smile turning to his child. "Now, Hess, my girl, when 1 lire this rille, do you hand me another, and so on, until tho whole eight shots are fired. That will k"epthem on the othei side of the wall, for a few moments at least, and then we will have to trust to God for tho rest?'
Look down there, and see a hand steal-1 ingover the edge of the wall! The old man levels his piece that Brkish soldier falls back with a crushed hand upon hi com-;
panions heads. No longer quivering with suspense, but growing suddenly firm, the young girl passed a loaded rifle to the vetran's grasb, and silently awaits the result, For a moment all is silent below. The IJri.ish bravocs are somewhat loth to try that when a stout old "lledel," rifle in hand, is looking from vonder window! There is a pause low deep murmurs, they aro holding a council! A moment is gone, and nine heads ar thrust above the wall at once hark! One two three! The old veteran has tired three shots there are three dying men j Govelin" in the yard, beneath the shadow w w I . of the wall! "Quick, B:ss, the rifles!" And the brave girl passes the rifles to her father's grasp. Three or four shots, one after the other three more soldiers fall back, like weights of lead upon the ground, and a single redcoat is sen, slowly n o mting to the top of the wall, his eye fixed up on tho ha'1 door, which he wiil force ere a: moment is gone! Now the l ist ball is fired; the old man ; stands there in that second story window, , his hands vainly grasping for another load - ed rifle!

The door is burst open. Look there! Stout foru-s are in the doorway, with niuskets in their hands, grim faces stained w ith bloenl, glare into the chamber. Now, as if her very soul was coined in tho words, that young girl w ith her face pale as ashes, her hazel eye gloaming with a deathly light, utters this short but mean. ing speech. 'Advance one step into the room, ami 1 will lire this rille into the powder there' No oath quivers from the lips ofthat girl lo confirm her resolution, but theie she Ftands alone w ith her wounded father, and yet not a soldier dare cross tho threshold.
