The following lines were tvrilirciz u/ton tlze close of
the late ‘war with Englurzd. ,.
The scene was enchanting to soul and to eye,
And the smile spake the heart’s fond emotion ;
The angel of peace in her flight from the sky,
Forgetting her radiant elysium on high,
Attracted the»soul’s sweet devotion.
Descending on pinions of laurel she came,
VVith the wreath of bright honor and glory;
Rejoice, oh Columbia ! rejoice in thy name,
Wliile the olive of peace and the garland of
fame,
Proclaims thee forever in story.
The eye of benignity b'eam’d from afar,
And it seem’d every heart was repuslng;
Bellona gave way with her blootl-crimsr.-n’d cur,
‘While the song ofmiid peace husb’d the trutn-
pet of war-— _ ,4 A
How martial and grand in its ‘closing.
I silently gaz’d on the heart cheering sight,
Imprcss’d with the sweetest emotion ;
And welcom’.d the blessed return ofthe light,
'When it dawn’d from a‘ dark and a petitotts
night _.
Of carnage, of blood and commotion‘.

Tartan, a kilt, iphilebtg, purse, and highland bon-
net, adorned with the straight feather of the eagle
He had his rifle slung at his back, his disk by his
sicle, stockings chequered in imitation ofthe Ro-
man sandal, and tied up with red g--it-ters below.
the knee ; his fishing rod packed up in a case,
and his trident or l-aster, for speariug salmon. in
his hand. Although he was very bald on the
forehead, and of a swarthy complexion and sunk
eye, yet the latter was full of fire ; his jet black
ringlets curled in his neck; his figure was up-
right and elastic; his limbs well knit together ;
and, on the whole, he had quite a martial appear-
ance.
Throughout the day’s sport, we encountered
many dilliculties, which seemed greatly to height-
en the pleasure to him; or rather the fact was,
that he a little gratified his liighland pride in sur-
inounting so_,,tnanv dangers, and in showing me
the spirit and activity of his country. Twice I
should have been drowned, had he not waderl
tltrougli rapid lords with me_ on his back. In
carrying me through th: water, he assumetl a
very tl‘lumpll2tl1t air, and whistled as he 5l}l.tSlIt‘(l
through the impstubus flood. We had so
much ltill-clirnbiiig, and so many leaps to per-
form, that about mid day, he perceivetl that l was
a good deal fatigued. He accordingly pointed out
to me the red Scar Mar, where lived one of his
cousins, Alpine Mac Gregor. It was two miles
off; but that was a mere‘step to my intrepid
guide.
Arrived at the threshold of the door, be halted,
scraped his brogucs, and lifting his bonnet, ex-
claimed with a pious air,‘ Peace be to this house 1’
There was something so apostolic in this pt-act!)
tice, that I felt filled with respect and brotherly
love. Now appeared an aged -Colt, surrounded
by his numerous children, a smile on his high
boned cheeks, and a bottle of wine in his hand.-
‘ \Velcome be the stranger,’ exclaimed he in an
audible sooorous tone; and extending his right
hand to receive mine, he shook me heartily,
whilst one of his sons stood behind him as a bot-
tle bolder. He now swallowed‘ a bumper to my
health, and ‘long life to me.’ ‘An Englishman,
or polished Lowlander, would have offered me a
glass first; but l‘ll'gl‘t'lal}(.l hospitality commanded
to drink first. ’T_was anciently a proof that I
mizghtdrink of the same safely : besides, he then
welcomed me with a blessing and with a full cup.
‘ Bring the cup which the Prince gave your
grandiuncle,’ cried A-lpin ; and I had then to drink
half a pint out ofa silver gobblet, which the fam-
ily received from him whom we call the Preten-
der, but whom Alpin and his family callccl the
Prince--not but they are as loyal subjects as any
in the land, but they still look back ‘ to the days
o'lon-g sync.‘
Cold game, fine butter, old ewe‘ milk cheese,
resh eggs, and whiskey, were brought in abun-
dance. W'e refreshed ourselves; and the lairtl
of the small farm then gave me a convoy on the
road, and insisted on my allowing him to‘ carry
£22
my game bag aitd fowling piece, in order to ease
~me in my journey. He was very much flattered
at my having-(a sprig of hether in my hat, and
produced the bottle at parting, on the road. He
- then in Gaelic, bid the good spirit to go in our
company; and left us with that pious heartfelt
wish. _
When we were near old Gregor’s cabin, my
guide fired olfhis rifle. It was a signal, and the
whole of the family, with Gt-cgotufull dressed at
the ltead, came out to meet us, and a piper play-
ed as up to the door, the peasants cheering and
welcoming the stranger the whole way. I was
fool enough to shed tears I so little was I prepa-
red for such a distinction,so little did I merit such
awelsome, and so forcibly was I taken by the
heart. Being‘ wet up to the knees, and splashed
all over, they proposed my assuming, for the day,
the Higltland garb, which I accepted cheerfully,
seeing the forceof the compliment; and be it
well understood. that to refuse a highlander’s
kindness is the greatest a.fl'ront which you can
offer him. ‘ VVeel you set it,’ exclaimed Gre-
g‘’‘'‘ . .
lnow came to table; plain but plentiful cheer
and good liquor filled the hospitable board, whilst
the quality oftlte stranger obtained me the res-
pect which a Prince might have felt gratified to
accept. Next to me‘ was placed Highland Mary,
their eldest (laughter, a brunette of the first at-
traction, yet so modest--so blushing, though
friendly at fit'st'sight, that I felt a tmdre for her,
which wants a name. I would not have staid a
week in the cabin on any account, else must I
‘ have left my heart there, or have taken Mary for
the companion of my journey through life. VVe
had a festive night. My dogs and horses were
well attended and fed ; and my servant was made
drunk; for the‘; had followed us in order to be
A ready to proceed on my journey next day.-
At bt'eakl’-ost the next morning, I was regaled
with tea, coffee and honey, which reminded me
of what we read respecting the sweets of Hybla ;
marm‘L‘lade, cold gainc. eggs. broiled fish, and ii-
quid combustibles, of which I swallowed a glass,
in orrterto pay a compliment to mine host.
Our parting was the worst, for the old man,
_ recollecting his age, wept and said, ‘Perhaps I
may oe’.:r see ye again ;. but (recovering, as if
an-.hs med ofhis vie:tkncss.)' Oh .! man, come back
next year. and if Gregor be alive, ye’ all be one
o’ the family.’ ‘Heaven bless‘ you all,’ said I,
from my heart ; andl tore myself away from t-he
good family, ’midst the sh-iiuts of the peasants,
the sound of the bagpipe, and the wa'vi'ng of bon-
nets. I droveofl' furiously becausel felt a com-
motion in my bosom which depressed my spirits,
‘outpultizsg up at some distance, to take a farewell
view of the iiieudljr cabin, I perceived Gregor
-.md lns family, who had climbed the bill which
camtnands the serpentine road, in order, as the
Irishman calls it, to see me out of sight. _ ,
(j-regor had insisted on my keeping the High-
l:~.n'o dr ~-ss as a token of remembrance ; and bon-
i.-y E-.l:iry had given me a piece of Tartan, from a
tatnily web, as old as the hills (I was going to say)
'.l'- remind me of her. These prcsentsl guard
with affection and care ; and whenever I look at
them. resolve within myselt, that I would become
the Hermit in the Highlands.sltould any v-.:riation
of fortune ever interfere via my continuance in
the charaizter of The Hermit in Lozzrion.

./1 Fact‘.-—-Tliere is in Frederick county, Mary-
land, at new made Justice of the Peace, who had,
as he supposed, destroyed an old woman, whom
he charged with being a witch. The old woman
called one day at the Squire’s to purchase two
pigs. which the lady refused to sell in his ab-
sence, but soon after the old \vc»'t'n’ati"s departure,
the pigs became noisy for want of food ; the ma-
dame had some slop made at the still house,whtch
uasgiven the pigs to eat, when they became un-
tnattageuble, and began rolling, sqttulling, and
jumping to and fro. On the arrival of the squire
he Was informed of the old lady’s \l$lI; he im-
mediately pronounced the pigs be-witched, and
commenced his cure by burning one of the pigs.
He had a large fire made, a pig was caught and
h«.~ld in the fire. until it was burnt to death togeth-
cr with the \Vl'.Ci); alter the burning of the
and evil spirit, they ‘proceeded to the sty, when,
much to the-irjo), they found all quiet; there
was much l'<;‘jo'lCll‘.|g‘ in having succeeded in burn-
its-3; this ‘supposed ujtch. After the frolic was 0-
ver, the distiller found that the bucket in which
the slop was made, contained, instead of water.
.what they call low wine, which had actually made
the hogs drunk, instead of bewitching them.
