A TALE OF. TWEEDMOVTn MOOR. _
When the tyranny ot the last James
drove his subjects to take up arms against
bim> one of the most'formidable enemies
of his usurpations was Sir John Coch
rane, ancestor to the present Earl Dun-
donald. He was one of the most prom
inent actors in Argyle’s rebellion, and
for ages a settled gloom hung over the
house of the Cambells, involving in com
mon ruin all who united thejr. fortunes
in the cause of its chieftains. The same
doom encompassed Sir John Cochrane.
He was surrounded by the king’s.troops
—long, deadly, and desperate wa3 his
resistance, but at length, overpowered
by . numbers, he, was taken prisoner,

live, and
bis death-warrant to lead him forth to
execution. His family and friends had
visited him in' person, and exchanged
with him the last, the long, the heart
rending farewell. But there was one
who was the pride of his eye and ofhis
house: even Grizel the daughter of his
love. Twilight was casting a deep
gloom over, the grating pf his prison
house j he was mourning for a look of
hi3 -favorite child, and his head was
pressed against the cold, ejamp wall of
his cell, to cool the leverisji pulsations
that shot through it like strings of fire,
when the door ofhis apartipent turned
slowly on its unwieldy hinges, and his
keeper entered j followed by a, young
and beautiful lady. Her person' was
tall and commanding, her eyes dark,
bright and tearless ; but their , very
brightness spoke'of sorrow—pf sorrow
too deep to be wiped avyay ; —and her ra
ven tresses were parted ’over an. open
brow, clear and pure as the. polished
marble. The unhappy captive raised
his head as they entered. i « „
“ My child ! my own Grizel !’ > 'he i ex
claimed, and she^fell upon his bosom.
‘‘ My father! my dear * father V* sob
bed the miserable maiden,. &S she dash
ed.away the tears, that accompanied
the words.
C ** Your interview must be short-—very
short” said the jailor as hp turned and
thoughts: left them for a few minutes together.
.- “God help and comfort thee, ray
daughter,” added the cnbappay father,
and he held£ier Id his breast, and. im
printed a kiss upon, her brow. I fear?
ed that l should die 'without bestowing
try last blessing upon the head of my
own child, and that stung me more than
death; hut thou art come—and tbaLthe
last blessingof thy wretched father - . - ”
“ Nay, forbear!” she exclaimed; ‘.‘not
thy last blessing! not thy last! My fa
ther shall not die.”
Be calm, be calm !.my child!” re-
“ Heaven help thee, if thou intendest
to go far in such a night as this,” said
the’-sentinel at the English gate, as the
traveller passed him and proceeded to
cross the bridge.
In a few" miuutes he was upon the
borders of the wide, desolate and
dreary'raoor of Tweedniouth, which for
miles presented a desert of whins, fern,
stunted heath, here and there covered
with thick brushwood. He slowly tot-
tled over the steep ' hill, braving the
storm, which now raged in its wildest
fury. The rain fell in torrents, and the
wind howled as a legion of- famishing
wolves, hurling flie doletul and angry
echoes over the heath. Still the stran
ger pushed onward, until he proceeded
two or three miles from Berwick, when
as if unable longer to brave the storm,
lie sought shelter amidst the crab and
touched his beaver, but remained cov
ered.

he, taking two papers from his bosom,
“ cast them into the fire !”
Sir John glanced on them, started
and became pale—they were his death
warrants.

server of my life f Mjri father, my chil

The old Earl grasped the hands of

ed by the bridle—-the rider raised his
head, and the traveller stooc] before him,
holding a pistol to his breast.
u DistnoiihiV* cried the stranger,
sternly. "
The horseman, benumbed, and strick
en with fear, made an effort to roach his
arms ; but in a moment the hand of the
robber quilted the bridle, grasped the
breast of the rider, and dragged him to
the ground. He fell heavily on his face,
and for several minutes remained sense
less. The stranger seized the leathern
bag which contained the mail from the
north, and flingii^g-it on his shoulder,
rushed across the heath*.
Early on the following morning the
inhabitants of Berwick were seen hur
rying in groups to the spot wliere the
robbery had been committed! but iio
trace of the robber could be obtained.
Three days had passed, and Sir John
Cochrane was yet alive. The' mail
which contained his'death-warrant had
been robbed, anil before another order
for the execution could be given, the inter
cession ofliis father,the Earl Dundonald,
with the king’s confessor might be suc
cessful. Grizel now became almost his
constant companion in prison, and spok<
to him words of Comfort. Nearly Jour-
teen days had passed since the pro
tracted hope in the bosom of the priso
ner became more bitter than his first
despair. But even that hope, bitter ,as
it waff, perished. The intercession had
been unsuccessful—and a second time
the bigoted, and would.biLilcspptic mon
arch, signed the warrant for his death,
and in a little, more than another day
that warrant would reach the prison.
“ Thcl will of Heaven be done
■groaned the captive, s- ... -
“ Amen!” returned Grizel, with wild
vehemence, *- but my father shall uot
die !f
Again the rider with the mail reach
ed Tweed mouth, and a second lime he
bore with him the doom pf Cochrane.
He spurred bis horse to bis almost speed;
he looked cautiously before, behind, and
aropriil him, and in his right hand he
carried a pistol ready To defend himself.
The moon shed a ghastly light across
the heath, rendering desolation visible
and giving a spiritual embodiment lo
sent a haughty summons in the name of
ofFri
the King of France to the English com
mander to surrender. Provost, inevita
bly lost without some little delay, pro
tracted the"correspondence as long as he
could, and ,then demanded liventy-fbur
hours to consider die proposition, which
D’Estaing madly , granted. Had he im
mediately advanced on the place if would
have been an easy couquest, for the for
tifications were in bail repair—but -a
few of the cannon being mounted and,
the garrison small.' During this inter
val, Provost worked on the defences
without interraission, and at the end of
the twenty-four hours, had nearly a
hundred cannon liniug the ramparts.—
Maitland had also arrived, with his choice
troops, thus swelling 'his army to three
thousand men. He now felt himself
strong—the arguments which had influ
enced his determination were of the most
forcible kind, and he sent to D’Estaing
a pob'te note, saying, he had resolved to
hold out to the.last.*
To,attempt to carry the works by
storm, strengthened as they now were,
would he madness ;. arid so the French
commander and Lincoln, with an army
ol six or'seven thousand men, sat before
them, in regular siege. The 'trenches
were opened, and amid the fire of artil
lery, the workmen toiled with such vig
or, that by the fourth, of September a
sap'had been pushed to within three
hundred yards ofthe abattis. At length
the batteries -were.Aiompleier), and;" the
night ofthe fourth of October the trn.
He and Lincoln, after a short consulta
tion, concluded lo make an attack on
the right side of the town, where there •
was a deep hollow, along which the as-.
sailants could march perfectly covered
till withfn a few. rods ofthe walls. The
ninth of October was fixed on for the
.attempt, and the Americans stood in or
der ol battle, though the. French did not'
lake their station till three hours after.
At length the flower of both.armies in.,
one long column, stretched forward till
they reached the open space in front of.
the works when they .broke off’into their..
several divisions, as arranged before
hand, and advanced on the respective
points to which they were destined.—
The French advanced in three columns
the Americans in one—D’Estaing and
Lincoln leading them cm. In the dark
ness they got confused in the swampy
hollows, but as the gray light began to
dawn in the east, they formed anew and I
pressed forward. D’Estaing wishing
to take the garrison by surprise •imme-.J
diately spurred up to tlie head ot iht?
coluinu, and without waiting, for the oth
ers to come up waved his sword over,
his.head, and shouted “ advance.”—
Straight on the abattis, and through it—*
up to the very walls, and up their sides,
streamed the excited troops, while those
hundred cannon were opened in twilight,
like a peal of thunder, and oue fierce
fire of musketry rolled down on their
heads. Stilly “Advance! advance!”
rung along the shattered column, and'I
still D’Estaing cheered them on, tilljj
struck to tlio eanh, he was borne wound"
ed from the field. But nothing could
mhstand that deluge of grapeshot and
bulls; and.The first column riddled into
fragments swerved from the horrible |
storm, and wheeled away into the cover
of* the woods. The second however,
coming up passed rapidly over their dead
companions, and with shouts tliat were
heard above the deafening uproar, gal- -
lautly mounted the walls! Around aYe-
doubt on the Ebonezer road the struggle
and the carnage were awful. Again
and again did this firm-set wull of living
men move on that wall of stone and
earth, and taking the loads of grap$ shot I
in their bosoms,rush shoulingontheguris.
Mowed down as they advanced, and
stretched in ghasty rows along the ditch,
they dissolved like mist in the path of I
the whirlwind.
In the midst of the gloom and tumult,’
two hundred horsemen were seen with a
fearless rider at their head galloping
straight for the entrance to the town in
order to gain the enemy’s rear. 'J That
