lILLZ OF 4WIEDMOUTR ton: •
When the tyranny end bigotry of the iyt domes
drove his subjects to take up arms against him,
ono of-tho most formidable enemies to.hie danger
'ens usurpations was Sir John Coehrane,'ancestor
to the present earl of Dundonald. He was one of
the most pnireihent rictors in - Argyles •Mbelliod.
and for ages a settled gloom seemed to'have hung
Over the honsoof Campbell, er.'yelepiem'lrt a corn
mon ruin all who united their fortunes in the cause
of its chieftains. The' same doom encompassed
Sir John Cochran. He was surrounded by the
king's troops—long, deadly, and desperate was his
resistance, but at length, overpowered by numbers,
he was taken prisoner, tried, and condemned to
die upon the scaffold. He had but a few days to
live, and his jailor waited but the arMal of his
death-warrant to lead him forth to execution. His
family and his friends had visited him in prison,
and exchanged with him the last, the long:the
heart-yearning farewell. But there was one who
came:not with the rest to receive his blessing:—
one who was the pride of hiseye, and , ofhis house,
—even Grizel, the daughter of his love. Twilight
was casting, a deeper gloom over the grating,s of
his prison house, he was mourning for the last
look of his favorite child, and his head wee: pres
sed against the cold damp walls of his cell to cool
the feverish pulsations 'that shot through it like
stings of fire, when the doer of thrapartmerit
turned slowly on its unwieldy, hinges,'and his
keeper entered followed by a young spa , beautiful
lady. Her person was tall and commanding, her
eyis dark, and tearless; but their very brightness
spoke of sorrow too deep, to be kept away ; and: .
her raven tresses were parted - over an open
clear and pure as the polished marble. The Am-
I
happy captive raised his head, as they entered—
'My child! my own Cried!! he exclaimekand
she fell upon his bosom.
My father! my father!' sobbed the miserable
maiden, and she dashed away the tear, that accom
panied the words: ' I •
Your interview must hi short; very shad,'
said the jailor, as ho turned and.let t them for a
few minutes together. ,
• God help and comfort thee, my daughter r ad
ded the unhappy father, as he held hi r to his
.breast, and printed a kiss upon her hrpnt. I had
feared that I, should dip withoutbcrOiwing, niy
blessing on the head of my own child, )Ind tha t
stung me more than death but thoti art come
my love—thou - ait come! and the last blessing of
thy wretched father.' •
Nay !lorbear.!' she exclaimed, not thy last
blessing !- - --not thy la t !—lViy father shall not
die ! '
Be calm! be calm, my child!' returned he
.vvoald to heaven that I could eomfort thee—my
own! my own ,!• But there is : tio hope—within
three days, and thou and all my little ones will be
-Fatherless—be would have said, but the words
• died on his tongue, •
14 Thtee days ! ' repeated she., raising het 'heat)
from his breast, .but 'eagerly pressing his hand;
my, father shall lice I—ls not my grandfather the
friend of father ietre, the imfessor and th - e master
of the kings :--tom him he shall beg the life of
bi!,iion, and father shall not die.
Nay nay, my Grizel,' returned he, 'be not
deceived ;there is no hope; already my doom Is
sealed ; already the king has signed the order far
illy execution, and the messenger of death is an
the way.'
• Yet my father shall not ! shaft not`, die ' she
repeated, emphatically, and :clasping her hands
together,
.1-leliveti speed a daughter's purpose she ex
claimed and, turning to her father, said calmly—
'we part now, but we shall meet againt ! , •
What would my child 1' itiquired he eagerly
gazing anziously.on her face. ,
Ask not now; • shereplied, ! my father—ask
not now; • but pray for me; and bless the; but not
-
with thy blessing!
He again n pressell.her td his heait, , and wept
upon her neck. In a few moments the jailor
entered and they were torn from the arms of each
other,
On the evening or the second day in
terview we have mentioned, a wayfaring man cross
ed the the drawbridge at Ilerwick,.froin the north;
and, proceeding down Marygate, sat down to rest
uporia bench by the door of an hosilery on the
South side of the street, nearly frontingwhere what
was called the Mainguaid ' then stood. He did
not enter the inn; for it was abo4d his apparent
condition; being that whichPiiver Crerowell . had
made his head quarters a few days florae, and
where at some earlier period, James the Sixth bad
taken up his residence when on his Wily to enter

of equally plain materials. He wr
