Mary Morrison, the heroine of thf preaent liltle sketch, was ahout .seventeen years of ago at the time tbe incident transpired.
Mary was really a pretty creature, and a picture of robust health. Still, we would not have the reader imagine that she waa either coarse or vulgar; on the contrary, she was naturally refined, even above her station,— But, strong of limb Wats the plump littie da,m- sel; aud, what waa more, she waa brave of he.irt, too, as the r-equel will show.
Mary lived upon a comfortable farm in Pennaylvauia, alouij with her father and mother aud two i>rotbBrs, b.'lh the latter older Ihau herself.
At tlie breaking out of the war, her father and brothers were among the very first to shoulder arms in defense oftbe couutry ; con¬ sequently, Mary and her mother were neces¬ sarily left alone to mauage things as best they could.
Early one moruing, Mary's mother had gone away to visit a friend, aome few milea diatant, and tho young girl was busy with her hoasehold duties, thu while humming a familiar ballad lo keep herself compauy.
All at ouce, ahe was startled by the donr being suddenly dashed open. A momeut after, au Americau soMier, red and heated from violent exercistt, and disorded appear ance generally, rushed into the apartment, gaspingly crying, J.
" The bloodhounds are on my track! I can go no further \ For God'a sake, hide me somewhere I"
The young girl was at first startled; but, perceiving at once how matters atood, ahe immediately rallied.
"From whom arn you flying?" she deman¬ ded.
"Hessians, my girl, Bessians !" responded the patriot, who was now standing, with the 'door but a few iuches open, looking intently down the road. " Thev have chased me far, thirsting for my blood," he added. " and now all my strength is spent. Will you find me a place to hide, and thereby, prob.tbly, save my life ?"
"Will I r'responded Mary Morrison, enthu¬ siastically. "God knows Iwill, sir, if it is in my power!"
" Thank you, my girl, thauk you !" "I,belong to a patriotic family, sir, and am only sorry that I'm not a mau to fight for my conntry.   As it is, I'll always do what I cau. But, Uow near are yoar pursaera ?" i
•' Hark! don't you hear the clatter of their , feet!' retnrned the soldier. "They are cern¬ ing on fast!" !
" We must be quiek, theu !'j rejoined Mary. "Let mo see!"—aud her bright eyes roved anxiously around the apartment. At length they lighted up with a glow of pleasure, and she addad, " in the oven you will be safe, I kuow ; and, thank Heaven ! the fire has not yet been kindled under it."
" Anywhere, so that I escape their fangs!" was the excited reply.
Let us pause a siugle momeut, to saya few words concerning tho oveu to which Mary Morrison made reference. It waa at the up¬ per end of the apartment, raised about a foot above the floor, and of the largest dimensions —too large, by far, ever to have been built for the uso of a private family. At the least calculation, it would conveniently have held three or four persona, and such oveus were not commou, eveu in that day, when ovens really were ovens.
"Get in here, sir!" cried Mary, aa ahe threw opeu the large iron doora. " Creep back as far as you can ; and should yoa feel the oven gettiug a little warm, don't ba frightened ; but try to bear it as patiently as possible."
"Liberty,if nollife, isat stake," respou ded the soldiur, as he eut himself and crawl¬ ed iuto the oven.
At that momeut the cry of lho purauiug Hessiaus burst distinctly upou their eara.
" Tbey are here 1" whispered tiio soldier, setting hi:S teeth. " Now, w re there but two or three of tham, iustead otcreepitig out of sight, I'd give them a lesson they wouldn't soon forget; but, as it ia, why, disciotion's the better part of valor, I auppose."
" Not a doubl of it, sir," rejoined Mary.—¦ " Back, now, as far as you can," she added, " for, though I hardly think it possible, still they may take a notion to look into the oveu."
" Dander and blitzin ! we no find de repel!" aud similar expressions fell from the lips of ooe and another.
" I lold you there  was no  rebel here," aaid the youug girl, aa she calmly rose to her   better for us in every way.    Wrath is a bad feet. . companion to nourish in our bosoma and

The fugitive crawled forth, looking a great deal the worse for hia confinement, brief as it had been.
" The heat was almoat too mnch for me,*' said he faintly.
"I expected as much, sir," responded Mary, pityingly; "bnt, indeed, I couldn't help it, under the circumatances. l^id what I thoaght best to save you from thelt hands* But for the fire beneath the oven.I knew they would have searched it, and likely, dis¬ covered you,"
"I don't blame you, my girl," responded the fugitive ; " on tbe contrary, I thank you, from the bottom of my heart. You have saved my life, aud what were a little acorch- iuglothat?"
The last words had barely passed his lips when he fell to the floor, iuaeusible. Mary at ouce applied herself to restoring him, and, in a little while, she had the pleasure of seeing him agaiu conscious. While she was so engaged, her mother retumed; and, being informed of the circumstances, she immedi¬ ately addressed herself to the taak of aiding her brave daughter.
It only remains for us to add that, after a day's careful nnraiug, the fugitive was fully enabled to proceed upon his way ; and that he never forgot Mary Morriaon, mnst be patent to every reader.
"A Soft Answer turneth away Wrath."
The principle of thia proverb, saya the Bos¬ ton Herald, has entered iuto all languages aud has been incorporated into the homely pro¬ verbs of all nations.    In our phrase we give it expressiou thua:—"You can catch more flies wiih molasses than with vinegar."   If we would imbibe the true spirit of the pro¬ verb and let it exert a governing inflnence upon our life and conversation,  the world would jog on far more pleasantly than it doea now; harmony would spring up where now the discordant voice of strife diaturba the air, and it would be surpriaing to .=ee how a mul¬ titude of our little difficulties and aunoyancea would disappear under its genial powar, like j clonda of vapor before the rays of the advan¬ cing sun. ' We do not understand that it ia here incul- ' cated that we should be submissive nuder injury, or craven aud cruchiiig under insult. Ware we to preach that doctrine we should well deserve to be called upon to exemplify it every day in submitting lo injuries aud poukeling insuUa. Mankind have not reached that point of perfection yet,where, if they are smitten ou oue cheek, they will turn the oth¬ er also.   Tlie test, as they understand it, ia, " It a mau hits vou on one cheek, hit him back agaiu, and if he steal your coat pitch iu¬ to him."   Thia may not be according to the Scriptures in its true iuterpretation, but it is the gospel according to human natnre, aud that is  the governing law with ns in our every day lifo.

'Self ]ffade DIen' Against Educated Hen.
The following from the Philadelphia School Journal, contains some just observations, and some that are mora aweeping than jaat, Onr readera will readily separate the true from the falae.
We kuow au old gentleman who haa fought , the battle oflife induatrioualy, and whoae de- : olining yeara ara now pasaing in the enjoy- ment of the apoila of a auccesaful campaign. While conversing with him, aome time ago,* he remarked, that he had "come to the con- olaaion that college education was a waste of time."
He assured ns that the best men he knew were "self-made" men, who atarted both poor and uneducated. He pointed out many of tbem, aud told as of their fortunes. He alao apoke of others, who began with money and education, and who had become idlera, drunkards, and even acoundrela. He re¬ marked, also, that many young men, after having gone through college, "got high no- lions into their heada," and uever did any¬ thing, because they thoaght themaelves too good to work. **
According to hia belief, the best way to make a useful mau of a boy was to aend him to school until he could read and write, and then put bim into a store, and let him work himself up to a partnership. He thought it naelesa and wrong to "waste time in learning things that would never come to no good 1" These be regarded as conclusive argnmenta against college educatiou. We took pains to see the meu whom he designated as tbe best meu he kuew, and found that money was thair only excellence. They ware all man of more tban ordinary nataral intelligence.— They all had been slaves to money-making, and had passed a selfish, stingy life, in amas¬ sing fortnuos which they were now too old to properly enjoy.
Thay are nearly all selfish, dogmatical, egotistical, and uureSned. They seem to have no love of the beautiful, no poetry and richness of feeling, uo cheerfulness, and above all, no idea that they were placed in this world to do good to their fallen fellow crea¬ tures. Self seema to have been their shrine, and DOW tbey appear, in their almost help¬ less age, like old, worn-out horses, liked for what they have been, by those to whom their labor.s have beeu serviceable, and pitied by all.
But we noticed another lamantable feature» viz: tbeir children, with few axeeplious, be¬ long to that class of youug persons called "fast," who idle away their time iu spending, foolishly, and even criminally, the wealth gathered liuring years of hard labor, by their sorrowing parents, who, despising education, bad given to their children no means of culti vating a love for the beautiful, the pure and the good.
One, only, of tho best man pointed out by our aged acquaintance, had really progressed. He had made a fortune, and was, aparently, vory happy But ha had been* in tbe habit of spending all his evenings in reaJin^', and h^d educated all his children.
There is uo doubt that energy aud inielU- geuce, without education, can accomplish much; but it also certain, that, with educa¬ tiou, they could liave doue much more, even in a worldly poiut of view, and infinitely more when we regard the life to come. Educatiou cultivates all the mental powars, aud there¬ by enables us more raadily to perceive truth, and to detect error. There is no posaible position in life in which a college educatiou will not be of inestimablo benefit. Our aged accquaintance proved that education alone^ without a groundwork of intelligence and induatry, could uot ensure success. It ia but a proof of hisnarrowuess,;aud an illustration of the evil of ignorance, that he infers that education ia useless, wheu ho perceives that it alone will not give success. Education opens to the soul the highest hopes, and gives sureat meaus of ;.fiuding truth.—PAi/ude/pAio School Journal,

A School Iscidest.^Iu my early years, I attended tbe public achoola in Roxbury,Mass. Dr. Nathaniel Prentice was our reapeoted teacher, but hia patieace at times, would get nearly exhausted by the infractions of the school rules by the scholars. On oue o«- caaion, iu rather a wrathy way, he threat¬ ened to puniah, with six blowa of a heavy ferule, the first boy detected iu whispering, aud appointed some as detectors. Shortly after, one of theaa detectors shouted— " Maater, Johu Zeigler is whispering." John waa called up, aud aaked if it was a fact. (Johu hy the way, was a favorite, both of his teacher and his schoolmates.)
"Yea," anawered John, " I waa not aware what I waa about. I was intent in working out a sum, aud requeated the ono who sat next to reach me tbe arthmetic that contained the rule wbich I wished to aee.
The Doctor regretted his haaty threat, but told John he could not suffer him lo eacape the puniahment, and continued—
"1 wish I could avoid it, but I cau not withont a forfeiture of my word, and conse¬ quent loas of my authority. I will," con- tinned he, " leave it to any three scholars you may choose, to say whether or not I omit the puniahment."
John said he was agreed to that, and im¬ mediately called out G. S., T. D., and D. P. D. The Doctor told them to returu a verdict, which they soon did, after consultation, as follows:

Depend upon Yourself.—The auccess ol individnals in life, is, under Providence, (jreally owing to their learning early to depend upon their own resoarcea. Money, or tba expectatiou of it by inheritacce, has ruined more men tban the want of it ever did.— Teaoh the young men to rely upon their own efforts, to be frugal and industrious, and you have furnished them with a productive capi¬ tal which others canuot wrest from' them,and which they themselves will not be disposed to alienate. This is peculiarly the caae in thia coantry where a man mast bo the arti¬ ficer of his own fortune, where tbe road to wealth and honor ia open to all, and where those who would win muat labor for the prize. Gov. Everett has well aaid, that "the timea, and univeraai axperience, abundantly admonish that however the children of wealth may indulge in indolence and dissipation while their meana last—the great mass of Americans must aad ought to depeud upon their usefalness. Fortune ia at best preca- rioaa—patrimonial dependence is uncertain, and reliance upon the friendship or charity of the world, or upon office, is frail and de¬ basing. Self-dependence is the only snre stay. Wa are ever willing to help those who help themselves. Productive labor is the legitimate source of wealth, individual or national—and labor is profitable to the indi¬ vidual aud to the nation, in proportion to tha meaaure of intelligence and acientific knowledge which guides aud directa ita oper¬ ationa. Hence it is of primary imporiance that our youth should be effectually taught to labor, and that their minds should be early endued with that kiud of knowledge, wbich will instruct them in the principles of their business, render it honorable, and make themaelves iudependent in their minds and in  fortune."
