Allow me to repeat that the salt

the roots of the plant greatly diluted

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. So

more than once, though he had noth

In a brief space she ceased to come

The boy grew on. He saw the
pains of slavery on every hand. In
telligent aud 'thoughtful, he began
to revolve the bitter question, ichy
am I a dm e? When ten years old,
he was sent to Baltimore to be a house
servant vith Mr. Sophia Auld. This
kind-hearted woman began to teach
him hid letters. He made rapid pro
gress, and she wa proud of her charge.
She was going to make him profi
cient, at least, in reading The Iiihle.
I he hUfbanu touuu It out and imme

tasted enough to create desires that
nothing could repres. With a spell
ing book in his bosom, he pursued
hisfltudjes. 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

says one, "mv bees go to the woods
without alighting." I don't di-pute
it in the least ; but during the thirty
five years that I have kept bees. I
have" never had a swarm come out
and go to the woods without alight
ing first ; and I am afe in spying I
have hived a thosand swarms. I33es
sometimes come out undiscovered,
and after a while start for the woods,
and are seeu on the second start.

Go straight on and don't mind ene

round them, regardless of their spite.
A celebrated character, who was sur
rounded by enemie, used to remark,
"Thev a-re sparks which, if you do
not biow. will go out by themselves,"
"Live down prejudice," was the Iron
Duke's motto. Let this be your feel
ing while endeavoring t live down
the scandal "of those who are bitter
against you " If you stop to dispute,
you do but as they desire, and open
the way for more abuse. Let the poor
fellow talk there will be a reaction
if you do but form your duty ; and
hundreds who wore once alienated
from you will 11 ck to you aud ac
knowledge their error.
