he walked, staying no further ques-

Dalgetty 'shrugged his shoulders
and proceeded, for Sir Duncan •Camp-
bed's tenth or twelfth 'cousin has al-
ready shown some signs of irnpati-
encs,
At the gate of the castle another
terrible spectacle of feudal power
awaited him. Within a stockade or
palisade, wbiph_ seemed lately to have
been added to the defences of the
gate, and which was protected'' by two
pieces of light artillery, was a small
enclosure, where stood a huige block,
on which lay an axe. Both were
smeared with recent ;blood, and . a
quantity of saw -dust strewed around,
partly retained and partly obliterated
the marks of a very late execution.
As Dalgetty looked on. •this object
of terror, his 'principal guide suddenly
hint by the skirt of•his jer-
.kin, and having thus attracted 'his at -
tention, winked and pointed with his
finger to a pole •fixe on the stockade,
supported a human head, being
that,
that, doubtless, of the late sufferer.
There 'was a leer on the Highlander's
face, as be pointed to this 'ghastly

spectacle,hention
traveler aminou•s of nothing 'good.
Dalgetty dismounted' from his horse
at the gateway, and Gustavus
taken from him without his being per-
a itted •to attend him to the stable,
. a000rding to 'his custom.
This gave the soldier a pangwhichSt.,Seaforth

Thus silencing his apprehensions with

ow d his guide into a sort of
guard -room filled with armed Higlil-]toughly
orders. It was intimated to him that
'he must remain 'here wail 'his arrival
was communicated to 'the: Marquis.
To make this communication the
more intelligible, She doughty Captain
gave to the D,unniewassel Sir Duncan
Cantlbell's packet, desiring as well as
he could, by signs, that it should be
'delivered into the Maarquis's own
hands. His guide nodded and with-
drew
The Captain was left about half an
hour in this place, to endure with
indifference, or 'return with scorn, the
inquisitive, and, at the saute time, the
inimical glances of the armed Gael, to
whom his exterior and equipage were
as much a subject of curiosity, as his
.lis—Person and country seemed matter :of
dislike. All this he !bore with military
nonchalance, until, at the expiration of
the above period, a person dressed in
black velvet, and wearing a gold chain
like a magistrate of Edinburgh, but
who was in ,fact steward, of the house-
hold to the Marquis of Angyle, enter-
ed the apartment, and invited, with
solemn gravity, the Captain to follow
hint to his master's presence.
The suite of apartments through
1
which he passed were filled with
attendants or .visitors of various .de-
soriptions, disposed, perhaps, with
some ostentation, in order to impress
the envoy of .1b1on'trase with an idea
of the superior ,power and rnagnifi-
cence 'belonging to the rival house of
Ar
Argyle. One anteroom was filled with
lackeys, arrayed in brown and yellow,

in double file, gazed in silence upas

Was `lighted 'by long ,lanceaiated Go-,

where the sunbeams 'glimmered dimly

The marquis himself was dressed in
the fashion of ,the period, which Van-'
dyke has so often 'painted; :bit his
habit was •sober and uniform in color,'
and rather rich than gay. His dark
complexion, 'furrowed forehead, and
,downcast look, gave 'hint the appear-
ince of one frequently engaged in
the 'consideration of important affairs,
and who has acquired, ,by long' habit,
an air of 'gravity and m ster •, .which

is nothing to be concealed. The cast
with his eyes, which had
y , procured
him on 'the Highlands the nick -name
of Gillespie Grumaoh_1('or the frim),
was less'perceptible when he looked
downward, which perhaps- was one
.cause of his''heving adopted that
:habit. In person, be was tall .and thin,
gni y of de-
but not without that dignity
ortment and 'manners, which became
Pyour
his high rank. Something there was
cold in his address, and sinister in his
-look, although he spoke and !behaved
with the 'usual grace Of a man 'of
quality. He was adored by his
own clan, whose advancement 'he had
,greatly studied, although be was in
proportion disliked by the Highland-
ers of other septi, some of wham he
,had already stripped of their 'posses-
cions, 'while others conceivedthem-
selves in 'danger from his 'future
schemes, and all dreaded the height to
which he was elevated.
We have already noticed, that in
displaying .h'imself amidst his ,coin-
his officers of the household,
and his train of 'vassals, allies, and de-
Pendants, the Marquis of Argyle pro-
bably wished to 'make an impression
on the nervous system of Captain Du-
gald ;Dalgetty: Bit that 'dought per-
son had fought his way, in .one de-
partment or another, through the
greater part of the Thirty Years' War
hi Germany, a period when a 'brave
and successful soldier was a oompan-
ion for princes. The king of Sweden,
and, after his example, even the
princes of the empire,'bad
found themselves fain, frequently, to
compound with their dignity, and sit-
ence, when they could not satisfy, the
pecuniary claims of their soldiers, by
admitting 'them to unusual privileges
and familiarity, Captain Dugald Dal-
getty had it to' boast, that 'he had sate
with princes at feasts made for mon-
archs, and therefore was nota person
to 'be browbeat even by thedignity
which surrounded WiCellum. More.
Pndeed he was naturally by no means
the most modest man in the world,
'hut. on the •contrary, had so good an
opinion of •himself, that into whatever
company he chanced ,eci be thrown,
he always proportionally elevated in
his own .conceit; so that he felt as
much at ease in the most exalted soc-
iety as among his own ordinary coo-
parsons. In this high opinion of his
own .rank, he was 'greatly 'fortified 'by
his ideas of :the military profession,
which, in his phrase, make a valiant
cavalier a camarado to an emperor,
When introduced, therefore, into
the Marquis's presence -chamber,

advanced to the upper end with' an
air of more confidence than grace,
and would have cane close a to Ar-
g p

not the latter waved this 'hand, as a
signal to him to stop short. Captain
Dalgetty did so accordingly,and',hav-Campbell

Marquis: "Give you 'good -morrow,
my lord—or rather 7 should say,

as the Spaniard says."
"Who are you, sir, and what is your
'business?" demanded the Marquis, in
a tone which was intended to inter-
rupt the offensive familiarity of the
soldier,
"That is a fair interrogative, my
lord," answered Dalgetty, "which •I

and touching the noble Earl of Mont-
rose, I pray your lordship to peruse
these 'my Mull powers for treating with,
you in the name of that right honor-
able Commander."
The .Marquis looked slightingily at
the signed and :sealed paper which
Captain Dalgetty handed to him, and
throwing it with contempt
g p upon a
table, asked those around him what
,he deserved who came as the avowed
envoy and agent of malignant traitors
in arms against the state?

"A high gallows and a short
shrift,” was the readyanswer of one
sof the bystanders.

conclusions, and also of lordship

sort. 'And albeit •I shave not with me
a trumpet, or a white (flag, in respectP
our armyis not yet •e u' ed with its

yet the honorable
cavaliers and your lordship must con -
cede unto me, that the anctity of an
envoy .who corneal on matter of truce
or parley, consisteth not in the fan-
fare of a •trumpet, whilk is 'but a
sound, or in the 'flap of a white flay,
whilk is but an old rag in itself, but
in the confidence reposed by the
•party 'sending, and the party sent, in
the honor of 'those to whom the res-
sage is to be carried, and their full re-
!lance that they well respect the jus
gentium, as well as the law of arms,•
in the person of the com'missionate,"
"You are not come hither to !entire
es •upon the law of arms, sir,"said the
Marquis, "'`wdhich neither does nor can
apply to rebels and .insurgents; but to
suffer the penalty of your insolence
and folly for bringing a traitorous
message to 'the Lord Justice -General
of Scotland, whose duty calls upon
him to punish suoh an offence with
'death."
"Gentlemen," said the Captain, who
'began much to dislike the turn which
his mission seemed about .to take, "I
Pray you to remember, that the .Eate
of Montrose will hold you and your
possessions liable 'for whatever in -
jury my Person, or my Horse, shall
sustain by these unseemly proceed-
Ings, and that he will be justified in
executing retributive vengeance on
your persons and possessions."
This menace was received with a
scornfullaugh, while one of the
Campbells replied, "I't•is afar cry to
Lochow;" a proverbial expression of
the tribe, meaning that their ancient
Hereditary domains lay beyond the
reach of an invading enemy. "But,
gentlemen," 'further urged 'the 'unfelt-
urate Captain, who was unwilling to
he .condemned without at least the
benefit of a furl hearing, "although it
is not for me to say how far it may be

honorable 'gentleman of your awn
name, Sir. Duncan of And-
envahr, for 'my safety an this mission;
and I pray you to observe; that in
breaking the truce toward me you
will highly prejudica'te his honor and
fair name."
This seemed to be new information
to many of the gentlemen, for they
spoke aside with each other, and the
Marquis's face, notwithstanding his
power of suppressin g all •external
signs of his passions, sh°wed impati-
once and vexation.

company, addressing the ,Marquis.

Marquis; ".but I have not yet had
