The man naid no attention to tlii sounds, and Dolan whistled for Bee Svfurmliig. to prevent A sure way going to the woods, when bees from they come out and light, is to get a pail, half full of coLd water from the well : take a hronm-briish and din in the water. i and throw it up over the bee, and it will come down on tnem iiKe nue ram : tuen nive mem me u-ui .j. - -. i - - - instlnet witn intelligence ami sensi-1 an(i spriukle'them wnue going iu,nu bihty, vigorous and brave.

There 13 no need of having anv bees go to the woods not at all. I had over forty swarms last summer, and saved all by sprinkling it by contending warriors nearly a century ago. That, however, which imparts the chief interest to thi3 ancieut resi dence, is the fact that it was once the abode of Mary Phlllip-j, the beaute ous damsel to whom the uuromantic Washington lost his heart. History records how the daughter of the great Napoleon'a landlady re jected the suit of tho unknown lieu tenant, and thus failed to become Em press of France ; how the French peasant girl refused Bernadotte. and thereby lost the crown of Sweden ; and how a ew Jerse' girl, by jilting tho penniless wanderer from France, failed to enjoy imperial honor as the wife of the Emperor Louis Xapoleon. Wo now propose to tell how Mary Phillips, b3 rejecting George Wash ington, lost tho exalted station which Martha Washington so houorablv filled. In February, 1756, Colonel George Washington, accompanied by two aides-de-camp, left his residence at Mount Vernon, on horseback, on a journey to Boston, to confer with Gensral Shirley, coucerning.military matters. On reaching New York, he called at tho house of Beverly Robinson, an old army friend, who had served with him under Braddock. Col. Robinson, wishing to make the visit pleasant to his guest, had invited a few friends to add to the social attractions of his home. Among those invited was Mary Phillips, a sifter of Mrs. Robin son. She was then about eighteen years of age, bewitchimrly beautiful, with a form of rare grace and perfec tion, brilliant accomplishments, and lively and vivacious in disposition. She Was likewise an heiress. The young Virginia Colonel, fresh from the rural society of Mount Ver non aud the toils of the back wood campaign, was immediately charmed uj tiua "Htuni;; visiuu ui iuveilllls and gaiety. Turning away from ev ery other attraction, he spent much of his time In her society, and the walks, talks, and rides in 'which they in dulged brought upon them the rail lory of their associates. In this way tho few days that Washington had Intended to remain passed, but still he lingered, charmed by the magic spell of tho fair charmer. It was the first time in the history of his mature life that the sly Cupid had hurledd his dart at the young Colonel, and the arrow had sunk deep into his heart. Days went by almost unnoticed, until a week had been wrsted in thee enjoyments, and tho Infatuated man was forced to tear himself away aud proceed to Boston. They parted with an engagement on his part to call again on his return, nnd It is hardly necessary t.i say that ho was true to his promise. Nearly another week was now pass, ed under the hospitable rofof his old friend, and in the society of hi charming relative. But the urgencv of military engagements forced his return to Virginia, and George Wash ington and Mary Phillips parted with mutual regrets to meet no more for nearly a quarter of a centur$ when one was the great leader of the patri ot armies and tho other the wife of a Colonol, fighting his own country men, In tho service of his King. Thero is nothing to prove that Washington ever made a formal ten der of his hand, or that Mi-s Philllp ever refused him. Letters and mem orandums found among Washington's private papers show that their Inti macy had not gone so far as to call from him a declaration of love, though they each understood that Buch an avowal was imminent. When Washington departed he made a confidant of his old army friend, Colonel Robinson, and he wa directed to convey to his brilliant sister-in-law a hintof the avowal, which his extreme delicacy more than anv thing else, held back when he war In her society. In the management of this business Washingteu exhibited less than bis usual sagacity. A young dam-el, in her first aftulr of the heart, does not like to have love made by proxy. So she listened with impatience and mor tification to tho protestations utteied by her brother-in-law, when, had they been made by her admirer in person, with the hesitancy and t-eere-cy whioh usually attends such com munications, she might haveiuclined a willing ear. Robinson made little progress, and wrote to Washington soon after, urging him to come on and press his suit in peron. A reply was sent pleading urgent business as a rea son for postponement: but he soon received another earnest letter from Robinson, fitating that Roger Morris, a rich and accomplished gentleman, had obtained the earof the fickle girl, and was filling It with tales of ro mance, poetry and love, slowly and effectually eflaciuir the memory of the plain Virginia Colonel. If anv ans wer was returned to this communica tion, Its tenor Is not known ; it is probable, however, that his own pas sion had began to cool. His pride may have been touched by the pref erence shown another, and ho resolv ed no longer to dispute tho prize.

At length he mnde mon ey enough topurchaea "Columbian Orator." In this volume he found "the fanaticim of liberty." Here was the Immortal language of the Declaration of our Independence; here was one of the masterly peeche of Sheridan. He could resist it no longer. He ran awm 1 The storv of hi escape has been recently and fre-hly told. He came to New Bed ford, on Buzzards' Bay, in old Mas sachusetts. The air was fnl. of liber ty, aud he exulted. He found work and kept his own wages. He "sawed wood, dug cellars, shoveled coal, rolled oil-casks on the wharve ;' he worked "m candle works and brass foundries." and was living in a new world. He began to hear of Garrison, and subscribed for the "Liberator." He read what books he could reach among them Scott's "Lady of the Lake." Charmed in the character of the noble maid, he cast away the name of hi- former bondage and henceforth called himself "Frederick Dougla-" a name whose renown will long linger among men. It was here that he married and be gan to plant a family of his own. He mingled with the colored people that had gathered under the northern stars. He ventured to speak in their meetings, and the fire of his eloquence kindled to a name. In lMl a great of this if vou use cold water. "But," says one, "mv bees go to the woods without alighting."
