No &TUMLK l'OK CitAKt.KaroN.—We leurn from Abe Agent that thore will be uo stemnei (or Charleston this (Friday) morning, the Metauwra having to lay over to receive some ncctisnry repnirs. The steamer Gordon, which was to hove departed this morning, has been detained here in comtequcnce of not hav ing completed her repairs, fciho will bo reudy to take her piece in the line on Saturday next. jy We have too good un opinion of otli fair correspondent “ Becky" to doubt that she will pardon our delay in publishing her charm ing description of a Pic-Nic on old Kennesaw, which by an omission of the compositer ap pears without her nom de plume, in the Neus this morning. One so clever in the English sense, cannot but bo clever in the American sense too. If, however, she harbors any re sentment, she has only to send us another leaf from that journal of hers, to give us an oppor tunity to moke ample atonement lor past de linquencies. With our thanks for her past fa vors, wo send to her a petition, os well in be half of our reouers as for ourself, that she will continue to make the News tho medium of her sprightly contributions. Call and Ukt it.—Tho owner of tho lost Pass Book, containing an order for ten pounds eighteen shillings and sixpence, on the Hr Martin'a Havings Honk, London, and other papers valuable to him, and which was adver tised in tho "Newt" of Wednesday morning is requested to call at this office and receivo the same. Tiie Farewell.—The Harmonics make their last appearance for tho season, ut the Alheneum to-night. The wlrolo strength of the company, with the addition of both new members and now instruments will be brought out on the occasion. Their entertainments have afforded our citizens a pleasant relaxation during tho summer months, and have been well attended. We hope to see a further np precintion of their "efforts to please" manifest ed by a full house this evening. rsr i 'lie Mhcoij Telegraph tins made its apponrance in a new and liundsome dress. Wo nro pleased to notice this evidence of the well-deserved prosperity of that obly con ducted journal. title Itiftuiitiice* By inadvertence, wo omitted in our Inst to invite tiie attention of our renting to tho letter of Mr. Four to the agent of the Chatter Oak Insurance Company, acknowledging the re ceipt of $5,035, tho amount of insurance on the life of Mr. Edmund Wallen, deceased, late of this city. This incident, while it gives ovi- dcncoof the promptness of the company in tho redemption of its policies, uffords a striking illustration of benefits resulting from the sys tem of Life Insurance. Mr. Wallen was n worthy and enterprising, but unsuccessful merchant; and only a few months before his last illness, ho failed In business in this city. In his reduced circumstances, he had the pre caution to effect an insurance ou his life in the company above named. A few months after ho was attacked with a painful disorder, of which he died, leaving a helpless and interest ing family, with no other provision against want than that which ho had secured by tho iimurunco on his life. Comment is unneces sary. The facts speak for themselves; and every insn of family who has tho proper de gree of solicitudu for those who are dearer to him than life, will appreciate the beneficence of on Institution which thus gives security against want to tho iielpless, tlu> widowed and tho orphaned, lleturn of the Ml. Johns. Yesterday morning tho splendid new steamer Si. Johns, Capi. Freeborn, returned fiom her pleasure excursion to Jacksonville, Bulat- ka and St. Augustine. Wo understand from thoso who had the pleasure of enjoying the trip, that it was very ngreoublo in every respect, and that nothing wus wanting on the part of tho gentlemanly commander aud offi cers of the St. Johns to promote the comfoit and enjoyment of the excursionists. The St. Johns carried down about one hundred and fifty passengers, und at Jacksonville was join ed by a largo party of ladies and gentlemen ol that city, who embraced tho opportunity to visit the ancient city of St. Augustine. While at St. Augustine Capt. Freeborn gave thu citizens of that place a pleasure excursion iu tho harbor, which we leurn was a pleasant affair. We heard it stated by those on board during the excursion, thul the new Savannuh built titeamer proved herself an excellent sea-boat, Dad (hut she meets ihc full expectations of her owners. We have no doubt that the St.Johns will soon become u popular bout with the travelling public. She will leave thin city fur tho South on Thursday tho fifteenth inst., after which she will run regularly on the Florida route. The Steamer William Son brook. Upon tho polite invitation of Capt. l’cck, Bays tho Charleston Mercury of yesterday, we visited the steamer William Seahrook, which lias been for some timo in dock, undergoing repairs. We found these to bo extensive and thorough, embrucing every pailicular that can in any way contributo to the strength and effi ciency of tho boat, and the security and com fort of the passengers. We uoliced particular ly the new boiler, the massive braces of both wood und iron in various parts of the boat, und vhe addition of uo less than 144 lile preser vers, distributed in the berths and cabin. Tiie boot has also been beautifully painted through out and large aud handsome additions have been inode to the furniture. The William Seabrook is, in every res pect, one ot the safest and most comfortable boats in our waters, and with her skilful and gentlemanly commander, she is in no danger of losing any part of that well established r- - putatiou which her long and pleasant associa tion with tho travelling public has secured to her. The Seabrook will resume her trips to Beaufort and Savannah, by the inluud /oute, to-morrow morning. er The Charleston Mercury of yesterday learns thuta lata letter has been received from Col. Gadsden our Minister to Mexico, announ cing bis arrival at the Capitol an the 10th ull. On thol7th he was publicly received by Presi dent Santa Anna, at Tacubaya, the ceremo nies being conducted with great pomp. We aro glad to learn that Col. Gadsden's health has been very greatly improved by his journey to, Alexico. He speaks iu worm terms of the beauty of the scenery, and tb healthful and pleasant character of the cli- ihate, in tho interior of Mexico.

If yon take sufficient interest in my letters, you will recollect, (and if you do not, you will not,) that I alluded in my last to a conversation which I had had the pleasure of holdiug with an elderly maiden lady oi^thc subject of the "im morality" of looking at nude statues. The morning alter tho day on which I mailed that communication, I read with horror, in one of the city newspapers, that the Directors of the Crys tal Palace hod, in their wisdom, ordered some hundreds of tin fig-leaves, with which to veil from the public view certain portions of every statue on exhibition. This announcement, if true, will no doubt have surprised you, much as it has aatouisbed me. and I now bse to forward you my indignant protest ngaiiml this indecent and grotesque barbarity. Indeed, until 1 sliull myielflinve seen this diabolical threat carried into practical execu tion, I shall decline lo believe that even the Directors of the Crystal Palace con have the indelicate audacity so fur to outrage public decorum aud good taste in this the nineteenth century. Can I, without ocular proof, credit the report that Messrs. Smith, Brown & Jones, of the "New York Association for the Exhi bition of the Industry of all Nations," assumt to themselves a greater knowledge of tho de ceucies of society, and the uppliLution ol' that knowledge to the art of sculpture, that Michael Angelo und Cauova 7 Can you, iny intelligent sir, imagine that the great masters of Italian and German art, knew less of the laws of good breeding than either Mr.Smith, Mr. Brown, or Mr. Jones, of the "New York Association for the Exhibition of the Industry of ail Nations ?' Preposterous! Wlmt is there that is revolting to the pure mind in an undressed statue 7 You look nt a piece of irinrble, lashioned into a beautiful form, hi which art luanilesi* u successful effort to imitate nature, lri nature thoro is nothing gross that is not abused by ooliupt imagine lion. Once associated in the mind with an) thing that is coarse or indecent, and the sim plest thing in nature loses its purity, and he- comes prostituted lo vile purposes by corrupt fancy, end any effort to suggest such idea, must therefore be corrupt. Wliut is it but this wicked association of things pure with tiling impure, which induced the lady in Boston i< put draweis on the naked legs of her piano, and which mill causes hundreds of persons lo insist on calling a very inoffensive bird by tho offensive name of *• rooster"-—offensive be cause suggestive of evil in the souse in which it is employed 7 People wliu look at a statue ns a work of art should be regarded, and an the correct mind would regurd it, see nothing in its nudity hut tho charms ot urt. Nothing indecent is meant, und if the spectator do not think inde cently, nothing indecent will appear. Rut put a tin tig leaf on any particular pail of a statue, and the questions nuturully arise, "why is this extraneous addition supplied l what is it intnuded to hide 7 und lor what reason liould that bo bidden f (lunations more like ly to do evil to the young mind, than the sight of tho object, which otherwise would have bcun regarded without distrust or suspicion. Besides, what right huve Smith, llrowu A Jones to betin tho works of the great musters? 1 fool morally convinced iu my own mind, that had Mr. Powers thought it necessary to put a lig leaf on his Greek S/avt or on his Ere, he would huve done so. If 1 go to see the Greek Slave, 1 desire to seo ino work of Powers us Powers left it, uud not Powers corrected by oiiltei Smith, llrowu, or Jones. If the Greek Stare, according to Powers, be too indecout for exhibition, let tiio Greek Slave beexcludod ; and if the trio obovo named know more of tho deeencies of sculpture than Powers, let us Imvo, inatcud, the woiks of Smith, und Bruwn, ami Jones, aud we shall then be able to find out whether these suobs' abilities nro equalled by their pretensions. So long as Powers's works ore exhibited in tho Cryetul Palace, 1 want to see Powers. 1 do not want to have a dirty bit of tin thrust between Powers und me. If 1 take my daunti* ter, Mademoiselle Neasuno, to see the wonts o| groat artists whose productions are on exhi bition, 1 do not desire that the Directors shall call her attention specially to unv part of the woik exhibited. 1 take her to tho Crystal Palace with a view to relino her tuute end con firm her judgment. But Imw am 1 to effect this end it 1 find Air. Smith, with his indecent ideas, amending Powers, Mr. Brown correcting 'yunovu. and Mr. Junes improving Thorwuld- ion7 Tho thing is simply impossible. I do not know how the public will stand Ibis unbeurd-of impertinence. My impres sion is, that a storm ot iud gualion will bu cle an d, which will sweep tho present directory fiom the high places, it the ignorant arid high handed attempt above uliudud to bo perse- as it has commenced. The Russell Letter and the Official “ Oroan."—-'The Washington Union ofSatur day copies the letter from Lord John Russell in reply to that of Mr. Everett on the Tripartite Treaty proposition, but seems to throw doubt upon its authenticity, though its reasons lor so doubting are not given, it also expresses good deal of surprise, we see, that a document embodying such sentiments should have emanated from any member of ijie British Cabi net. The positions it assumes, (be Union says, ore "inadmissible;" but the editor "defers" sny comments until he lie satisfied (hot the letter iu question is genuine. The New York Express augurs from this that Lord John, by-and-by, will get a last re- joindog firotu Air. Morey. ver«»d in. Tho New York 'Times has lately come out, what is intended to bo a very caustic article, unnihilnlory of the London Times, in answer to curtail) remarks otrthe inauguration of the Crystal Pulaco. Air. Ruymond’s dununciu- tion is, of course, very profuse in tho use of ifm*usltal Whig thunder, namely : pointed reiteration of the size of the United Stales '"pared with that of England. To my mind nothing cun be a more silly example of the -rgumenium ad captnndum vu/gus. If great izo were a proof of merit, Air. Raymond, the editor of tho New York Times, would stand veiy poorly in comparison with bis brother Edi tors, he being rather little iliun otherwise. 1 do bv.t desire to defend the caustic character ami unnecessary rigor of tho criticism in the Loudon Times; hut i cannot say thul there was not abundant ruomnot only torlmrsli criticisms, but even lor ridicule, on tho occasion alluded to. In my letter to you on the subject, 1 recollect re porting the failure of (lie Milituiy procession and its accompaniment of floral projectiles with bad doggerel und worse prose nttuchcd. I said then, and 1 say now, that the President of tfiis Republic, and a General in our army, cut but a sorry figure on horseback ut the lioud of the troops with an umbrella over bis heud—because of the rain. 1 say also that it a very poor business to huvo the archi tects of the building entirely in tho back ground. as if the diiectora were ushumed ol their participation in the enterprise. 1 say, moreover, tlmt the President's borrowing a shirt and putting it on in asuloon, was a less dignified proceeding (ban wus looked lor by tho public, However, true as thoso things may be, it is very unpleusunt to have a foreign journul throwing them into our faces; and when such nmiaiks are made, it is well that they be re plied to simply, if they bo replied to nt all. But to what end do we boast of the largeness ol America, and the smallness of England 7 The repetition of a geographical truth duos not seriously affect a question of this kind, aud is moreover entirely irrelevant. We assert that England is small in size, but 1 suppose that even the New York 'Times does not at tempt lo deny her greatnoss nod power—and it is really to be hoped that wo have something mure to bo proud of than our vast teiritory, cultivated and waste. Tho whigs, however, uro notoriously droll in their ideas. The Directors of tho Crystal Palace have announced that the exhibition will bo opened to the public on Friday evening next, only, until further notice. 1 presume they wish to try the effect of the lighting up once, before they announce that tho exhibition will there after bo oponed every oveuiug—which is a very wise and proper course. 1 am pleased ut being oblo to report to you thut the pretended claims of the so called Earl pi Stirling meet hero tho contempt they so justly merit.

It is, I tlmik, unfortu nate, that he lias not brought all his troupe with him; but there are, nevertheless, a suf ficient number of Stars in tho Company to make hik entertainments very popular. The renowned Koenig will no doubt, prove one of the pr-ucipnl alii actions; being as great a per- former on the cornet-a-piston as has ever ap pealed. Koenig wasoriginall v chief bugle in one of the British Household Regiments, and, m that capacity was called on to sound the Challenge at the Coronation of Queou Victoria, in accordance with an ancient custom, which prescribes that, on the crowning of a new inon- naif of the Sovereign against any one who may question hia or her right to the throne. The oerfect manner in which the Challenge was blown, excited the attention of all who heard if, and from that moment Koenig’s fortune was made. I he Colton market haa been very active since my last, and considering that we ore at the end of the season, wilh little Cotton to sell, comparatively large parcels have chang ed hands- Exchange on England is 8j to 9J percent, premium, and money is decidedly easier. Nessuno. Correspondence of Dolly Morning Ncvre. Key West. Aug. 28,1853. Editor of Savannah Morning News: Since our letter of the fOt\, per steamer Jas. E. Bay, no news of importance lias occurred. Tho salvage on the French brig Jeune France has been decroed and 30 per cent, awarded the libelants. Appraisers are engaged on tho cargo of the British brig Freeman.

A dispatch in the New York Herald gives further particulars of the arrest, riot, rescue, and ro-copture of the negro Watson at Ningora Falls, on Monday last. The dispatch says: Great excitement was occasioned at the Cateruct House yesterday, by iliq arrest by Deputy Alurshull Tyler, of Patrick Sneed alias Joseph Watson, a colored waiter at that house who is accused of being the murderer of James E. Jones, of Sutaunnh, on the till) July, 1849. Tho wuileri*, believing him to he urrested ns n fugitive slave, rescued him from tho officers, and barricaded the door of the dining room. One of the officers drew a revolver nod snap ped it at u man, but the cup missed fire. Tho dour was then fmcod—(lie man ugain mazed— and again rescued by tho negroes, who bur ned him down to tho ferry, where he juaipcd into a boot, and was rowed half way across the river hv the ferryman who left the boat in the middle of the stream, and returned ori mother boat to tlm shore, lo ascertain the par ticulars of the case from thu officers. Finding the crime to be murder, tho ferryman agreed to row down to tho landing nt tlm biidge, and there deliver tho criminal to tho officers. The latter Blurted for the lower landing, but were preceded by the negroes, who, to tho nuiiiberof about 200, reached tho lunding be fore l ho Officers. The officers then claimed assistance from a parly of some3U0 Irish laborers, employed on the railroud, and a regular pitched battle en sued, tho negroes being put to flight and pur sued by the laborers. Several of the former were knocked down witli stones and severely injured. Sneed, or Watson, was then token from the bout, placed in n catringo bv the offi cers, und brought safely to Buffalo. Fifteen hundred dollars ruwurd has been of fered for the mrest of Sneed, who will be con veyed to Baltimore, os soon as the necessary papers are recoivcd. The Went Point Military Academy. The Now-York Evening Post publishes an extract from Col. Benton’s forthcoming work, in which the distinguished writer gives his views on the subject of military education nt West Point. Tho editor of the Post says :— “ For nearly twenty years lie was at tho head of the Alilitary Committee in the United States Senate, und in, therefore, officially familiar ith the defective organization of the West Point Academy. Ilo shows that tho present system tend* to mako a governmental instead of a national army; that it prevents promo tion from the ranks, which is unjust as well ns undemocratic; that it annihilates tho influence hich the Senate, as a co-ordinate branch of the government, is entitled to exert in officer ing tho army ; that it degrades tho regular sol dier into a mercenary, and that it encourages desertion. Uo also shows very clearly, that in nil thoso pniticulars, the administration of the neademy has been changed since it re ceived tlm approbation of Washington. The mischief of which ho complains, ho says, dates from thu uct of 1812." &T T !i« Washington Slur Inaras at the Post-Office Department that on letters to Great Britain, when any sum less than tho full rafo (24 cents) is prepaid, it goes for noth • ing. For instance, on o single letter, if less than 21 cents (the regular rate) is prepaid, it is couutcd as no thing ; und where, say five rates, prepaid when six should be charged, it still coos for nothing. Purchase of Ammunition.—The Now York Times mentions a rumor that a large purchase of Porter’s revolving rifles has been made iu that city, by parties interested in tlio “Hairs of Cuba. Tho number of implements set down nt a thousand. Six charges to each will make this stock equivalent to six thousand muskets. BP" 'Pile Washington Star says that in the courso of Inst week, ono hundred certificatna were allowed in pension cases of Revolution ary widows who married after 1800, and came under the pension system through the act of Fodruary 3d, 1853.—Under this act sirteen hundred claims Imvo already been allowed; five hundred ure suspended for want of proof, and three hundred more aro on file for examina tion. When the law passed, inutiy insisted that not more than three hundred such claims would be presented in nil. Dishonest Servant.—A colored servant from the Metropolitan Hotel, in New York, was uriested on Saturday, charged with steal- $2,950 from a boarder. He offered a $500 bill for exchange at the Empire City Bank, and was then urreeted. He had purchased a gold watch out of the money. On h : s person was fouud $100 more, and in hia room, secret ed in a patent leather shoe, two ono thousand dollar hills. Tho thief wus jugged, and the money all recovered. Election Riot at Buffalo.—The Dem ocratic ward meetings, held hore on Saturday fur the election of delegates to the Democratic State Conveutiou, occasioned grant excite ment between tho friends of tho Administra tion and those who oppose Gen. Pierce’s pol icy iu making appointments. The contest was very revere, and resulted in the entire rout of the Administration party. In some wards the ballot boxen were broken to pieces, and a general light ensued. New York Quarantine Regulations.— Mr. Richard L. Alums, health officer at Qua rantine, gives notice to steam tugs towing in ward bound vessels, that they must tow with a hawser two bundled feet in length, und in nocaso will they be ullowed to go alongside a vessel (unless in distress) until tho health officer clears her. Ho also cautions steam tugs against approaching within 300 feet of a vessel at tho Quarantine. C3? 1 * The idea lias been suggested of re quiring all railroad companies to insure the lives of their pnasengera nln rennonahla rate. On the London and Liverpool railway, passen* gets can insure their lives fur £1,500 sterling, at three pence, for £1,000 at twopence, and at £500 at one penny. This plun secures the greatest caution on the part ot tho directors and conductors of the road, by the necessity of guarding against pecuniary loss. It nlso affords some provision for distressed families iso of unavoidable accidents. IdP* There is to bu u grand yacht race in Boston harbor on tho 10th of September. It is proposed to invite ull yachts not exceeding two hundred tons in measurement, to partici pate in tho sport. The race is to he from Bos* ton Light around the Light Boat on the Mi- dots. Three or four valuable prizes will bo awarded to the successful yachts. Effect of Filth on Health.—No better illustration is required of the detrimental ef fects of filth and stagnant pools of water upon health than in the fact that in five wards of New \ ork, the filthiest iu the city , there were bo ims than 249 ucutlis last week, nearly ouo- half the mortality of the entire city. Awful Storm.—A terrific tornado occurred in the vicinity of YVinchendon, Mass., on Sa turday evening, by which houses were unroof ed, orchards blown down, barns prostrated, Scarcely a building escaped. far The Miilerites are to hold a camp meeting in Concoid, N II., commencing on Wednesday, the 14tb inst. Railroad Excursion. Upon the invitation of Messrs. Finn & Os mond, the enterprising contractors for tire con struction of some fifteen miles of the Augusta and Waynesboro Road, a party of about eigh ty of our citizens mode an excursion yester day afternoon, nine and a half mijea upon it, to a point on Mr. Robert A. Allen’s plantation. We took our departure at 4| o'clock, P. M., in Platform Care provided with temporary eeats, drawn by tho celebrated Locomotive Picayune, and progressed merrily to the end. We moved slowly in order to examine tho work as we passed over it, and the opinion was unanimous, that it would be difficult to pro duce a better constructed or a smoother run ning road. The trip was a pleasant one in all respects. After running about two miles on our return, the train was stopped nt a convenient spring, ond sundry baskets of substantiate, cham pagne, ice, Ac., were deposited on the wny- side, and the party were soon ranged around them, busily occupied themselves with discuss ing their contents. Anecdotes and conversation enlivened the scene and gave zest to ttte occasion. His Honor the Mayor, throe of the four can didates for the Legislature, Messrs. Miller, Alillege, ond Walton, Air. Gardiner, a Director of the road, and many other of our prominent citizens were of tho parly. Alter a toast complimentary to the st>le in which the road has been built, and the hospi tality of Afessrs. Finn & Osmond, the party returned in safety to the city a little before V o’clock. / This road will rank No. 1. among the easiest running roads in the Union. And we do not doubt it will be among the most profitable.— Augusta Constitutionalist. A Very Important Discovery.—The Washington Star suys :—The Government have recently beeu apprised of tho existence in largo qualities, on our southern const, of n most valuable article of commerce with China, not before known to be obtainable here. We refer to what is known in science os Biclto do nmr, corrupted in the language of commerce into Declte la tner. Tho Chinese call it Tre- pang. The Chinese use it as we do Iceland moss and isinglass. It is taken to them in im mense quantities from tho tropical shores of Asia and Australia, unnutilly. Its value va- ties front $3 to $110 per picul (of 133J lbs.) according to quality ; thero being some thirty different qualities of the article, which are only to bo distinguished by experts in the trade. Religious Revival.—A religious revival has been going on in tho Methudist Episcopal Church in this city during the past ten days. Wo learn tlintsonio sixty persons have attach- thetnselvcs to tho church. In the colored church of the samo denomination, a revival has taken place, and about fifty new members have been received into the church. The following are tho receipts of the Vir ginia Central Railroad for the mouth of July : From freight $12,521,99; pnBsengnrs and ex press $11,78G,33. Total $24,308.32. This is art enormous business for tho central. The Richmond Mail states that tho depot there is completely packed wilh wheat waiting for the millers to taka tt away—while a largo quanti ty is on the line uwaiting transportation. vzr T ho editor of tho Elmira Ilcpublican notifies his subscribers und others, that his " fighting houra ore between ten und twelve, A. AL, when be will be happy to see any one who wants anyLting. A New Enterprise.—We see it stated tlmt they are making houses of papier mache in England for exportation to Australia and India. These houses, (suys an English pa per,) which contain from four to ten rooms each, can be readily taken down and re-eroct- ed wifhiu a period of from four to six hours, so that, immediately on lunding in his new homo, tho cmigraut may find himself in a com fortable residence. These houses will be less than one-third the cost of ordinary brick houses, and it is probable that they will, ere long, be extensively adopted fur summer booses, park lodges, railway stations, and moveable burracks, to all of‘which purposes they uro admirably adupted. They uro made with hollow walls, thereby excluding damp; and in the East Indies and other places where the white ant dues so much mischief, timber can be altogether dispensed with, ami the bouses entirely composed of papier mache, which they will not touch in conscqueuco of its poisonous nature. 13^* Air. Dempster, the sweot vocalist, very generously gave a concert last week at Sara toga, foMlie benefit of the New Orleans suf ferers. Tho weather being very bad, only $82 50 was teceived, aud only $40 wus con tributed ill addition by the people in the town. A Wicked Wife. »terrible story, from Burke's Family Ro- Hero ... in mice, showing “how the Scott* of Thariestanc cumo to beggary." It is au Ainsworth’s uovol in hulf a column: 8ir llnliort's second wife was an unprincipled wo- mini, of vindictive tcmpHr, and fierce passions, and by her he had isovernl children. This woman had ull the qualities calculated to inuke an opprciHive und cruel Mnp-damu; and accordingly her jualou»y d by the fund affection which Sir Robert displayed towurd* Ids eldest mil. Hhu knew that Ids ricli inheritance would descend nance would descend to him. while would receivo u very slender provi sion ; besides, her husband's excessive attachment to Iiih (-Idvst son guvo her no hope of his being per suaded lo alienate trout him uny portion of tho lam- ily property. Her jealousy accordingly grew into a disease, and her miud was distracted with rngc aud mortillcution. These feelings were still further ag gravated, when Sir Robert built tho tower of Gain- escleugh, and adorned that property with all man ner of embollishmont* as the future rt sidnuce of his eldest sou, who was now about to become of age, und for whom he hud arranged a mutable alliance, with n beautiful young ludy of high birth. The slop-mother now lout all patience, and wus firmly resolved to coinpars tho destruction of her Imteil step-son. The mason-work of tho new custlo of Guim-sclcugh was completed on the young Laird's twentieth birth-day, which was held nn a high festi val ut Tharlestaue. The lady resolved that his horns should ho numbered ; uud slio accordingly pro- purer), on tho intended festival, to execute her hor rid purpose. She hud already secured iu her inter est the family piper whose name wus Joliu Lully. This niau procured three adders, from which ho selected tho purl* replete with the most deadly poison, and having ground thorn to a fine powder, Lady Tharlcstaiio mixed them iu a bottle of wine. Previous to the commencement of the fnnst at Tharlostnne, tho young Laird wont over the Ettrick river to Gumescleugb, to inspect the finished work, ami to regale the iii.ous aud other workpeople, who had exerted theinneives to have the castle walls completed by his birth-day. lie was attended by John Lally. In the midst of the entertainment of the workmen, thu young Laird culled fur wine to drink their houlths, and John filled his cup froip the poisoned howl, which the ill fated youth hustily drunk off. The piper immediately left tho castle, if to return home. Hut he «»s never more seen. The most diligent search fuiled »*> di.-sover him ; and it is supposed that he escaped over tho English border. Young Timrlestaoe was intautaiieouslytakeii ill* uud such was the force of the poisou that ho swell ed uud burst within au hour. The news whs imme diately curried toTharlestHtic, where a large party of tho kith und kin of Scott had assembled to do honor to tho festival. Hut It may easily be conceiv ed what u woeful gathering it turned out to be.— Wilh one accord, the guests felt and said that tho young Laird was poisoned, but wore unablo to con ceive who could huvo dono so foul a deed to ono so universally beloved. Tho old bnron immediately caused n bugle to b« blown, as a sigual to all tho family to assemble in the eastern castle. He then enquired “ are we all here ?" A voice from tha crowd answered, “ all but tho piper, John Lally I" This sounded like u knell iu tho ours of 8ir Robert. Hr knew the confidence his lady placed in this ser vant. His eyes wore ut once opcu to the full deed, uud the conviction that his most dear and beloved son had beeu slaiu by tho machiuaiions of his wife, shocked his fcaliugs so terribly that ho was almost deprived of reason,^-He stood very long tn a state of utter stupefaction, and then bognn to repeat the answer which lie hud received. And this ho con tinued to do for several days. "We are all hore but John Lally, the piper I" dir Robert lived in a lawless time; justice was not rightly administered, and it was difficult to punish the c imrs of the powerful aud tho noble,— Moreover, Sir Robert could not be induced to make a public example of his own wife. However, ho adopted n singular and complete, though most un just method of vengeanco. lie said that the estato belonged of right to his son, and thatsiuce he could uot hustow it upon him while living, he would at least spend it upon him when dead. And he more over expressed groat satisfaction at the idea of de priving his lady and her offspring of that which sho had played so foul a part to secure to them. The body of the young laird was accordingly embalmed witn tho most costly drug* and spice*, uud lay in slate nt Tharlestnnu for a year and a day; during the whole of which time Sir Robert kept open house, welcoming and royally feasting ull who chose to come. And la this way of reckless ami wanton profusion he actually spent or mortgaged hi* entire estate. While the whole country, high and low, were thus feasting at Thariestanc, the lady was kept shut up iu a vault of the castle, fed upon bread nud water. During the lust threo days of this extraordinary feast, tho crowds were immense. It was a* if the whole of the south of Scotland was assembled ut Tharlo- stane. Huns of the richest und rarest wines were carried into the fields; their end* were kuorked out with hatchet*, and the liquor was carried nbout in •loops. The huruof Tharlostaue literullv ran red with wine. The vuult where the young Laird was interred, in n leaden coffin, is under the roof of thu A CARD.
