With this object in view he had summoned the Chins to meet at Glenorchy to hear the prup"sals and conditions of the Government. Among others present, although last to arrive, was M'Ian of the Valley, the Chieftain of the MacdonaIds. The elec- +lenalds were the near neighbors of Breadalbane, and -the ambitious E.0 1 of Breadalbane was imbues of the influence which M'Iau held over the Jacobite party. The smouldering rivalry of the heads of the two septs speedily blazed forth at the conference. Breadalbane had cautiously opened business by un- folding the Guverument phut of recoucil- iatlon and clemency towards Jl'Ian, whose courage, sagacity and age gave him a tacitly acknowledged right to priority of speech. Rising to his feet he .spoke with firm deliberation, and having the courage of his convictions, he fearlessly deprecated certain of the tens of the proposal, alleging that loy- alty to a fallen bauac was preferable .to chicanery in the matter of a successful one. A murmur cf approval passed around among the other leaders of the party, and it was apparent to Breadal. bane that M'lan's views had struck a chord which threatened to defeat his project. The wily Earl again depicted in glowing language the advantages •which would accrue to the Highland Chiefs by the acceptance of the terms, and laid strew on the social standing and .court privileges which they wesild enjoy.

The simple-minded old crofter he found sitting alone by the fire of peat— if the company of the two collie dogs be overlooked. Helen was "pont the vil- lage," Sandy informed him, but would be back presently. So Malcolm was wanly invited to "sit still" and wait the "lassie's coming."

I flash, from its scabbard, and the Earl This declaration by Breadalhane was fol- would have stood challenged within his owe castellated halls. On the way back, however, he had heard the incident repeated from Klan's own lips, and the quick red blush which mantled his brow at the recital of 'the iucident showed how deeply the pride of the heroic young Highlander was touch- ed. But whereas, up to a short time prior to this, 1tfalculin had fueled his highest sones of love in a devoted affection for his Chief, a new, strange, and infinitely tenderer passion had of late stirred and quickened the finer depths of his ardent and impetuous soul. Helen Cameron was a fair-harred,blue- eyed lassie of &oleo eighteen rummers. She was an .orphan lassie, and was neice to honest old Sandy klaedonald, "a sats' laird" on the Glencoe estate. At her uncle's request, she had re ently come south from her native Lochaber to act as dairymaid and assist in his farm work. Malcolm had first met her at the Bel- tane e'en merry snaking in the preview, May. Their appreciation of each other was instant and mutual. it was indeed a case of love at first sight, which is, per- haps a truer and much more common ex- perience than some cynics and grey -wigs would have us believe. From that lour in which his eyes had first alighted on Helen Cameron, and he had fondly touched her hand, the ardent yuuung Highlander felt that he loved the fair maiden, and could never probably love another. In tho freshness of her face and form, in the artlessness of her utacncr, in the whisper of her sweet voice, and e'pecially in the soft and touching beauty of her eyes, there was that indefinable charm which thrilled Malcolm M icdonald's soul with the beau- ty and intensity of a first love, which lowed by an indignant denial, of the claims by M'Ian, and a brawl which might have ended in bloodshed was for the moment imminent, but was averted by the calmer eouncil of cooler friends. Consideration of the proposals was delay- ed, and the Earl invited all present to partake of his hospitality at Kilchurn Castle. Most of those present accepted he invitation, but a conspicuous absen- tee was M'fan of the Valley, who, with bis two sons, Juhn and Allister, marched utf towards Glencoe, his piper playing a defiant pibroch at the head of the chief's bodyguard. L'readalbane utas not dis- pleased to see one so powerful removed for the time from the immediate presence of the majority of his guests, but the night was int to pass without the name of M'Ian hringiug fresh annoyance to him. The crafty Earl. had purposely omitted all reference to M'Ian from the toast list. This was perceived hy thou chivalrous Luchiel, who hastened to re- medy the omission by proposing a bum- per to "The Health and Prosperity of Glencoe," a tuast which Breadalbane had the mortiffeatiun too see responded nu with ent huaiasin by the assemblage. That night ere lie slept the Earl of Breadalbane had rr:apped nut a s.hme for the isolation of Glencoe from'the fu- ture counsels , f the Highland Chieftains.
