A ROMANTIC -STORY:
Ti is ..neealese to deieribe to the read
-er the famous Kitty Hyde, Duchess oi
4ueensberty, chertning, eg,sy, and
;Toting,' the friend of Gay, and the
sanie of whom he said :
'Yonder I see the cheerful duchess stawl,
For irendship, zeal, and blithsome hu-
mors known.'
This lady is well remembered by al;
who have read aught of song and story,
?Ind that class is happily a wide onS
now -a -days. • The majority of the aim
• dotes told of the duchess are of a hume
• rous character. ; as, for ex:Ample, that
„of her dragging a bevy of hiAhly dress-
ed country ladies who had come to
visit her/ through all the mire within
ia milE or two of Drumlanrig -Castle,
• herself being attired in stroeg thick
shoes; • and other. articles which both
protected her completely, and could not
be spoi!ed, by mud or weather. Noth-
ing in :the world could be more annoy-
ing than the positioh of these poor visi-
tdrs, 'who dare not contradict or resist
the malicious great lady, then the very
top and crown of fashior. But all the
atories told of her Grace are nOt of this
jocose order She was coneerned,'at
one period of her life, in a most melan-
choly tragedy, and this is the matter
which we wish at present to speak about.
Maekay 1 I will have DO Maeiays
said the duchess to her hUsbandin very
peremptory tones; a poor commoner's
daughter to sit in my shoes, and wed to
the heir of the house of Queensberry,
one al the first Matches in the land ! I
will have no Mackay& .
'Ay, my dear,' returned the duke,
'but Druinlanrig is no child, and you
may find it difficult to bring -him round
to . our opinions on this subject.'
ooh, pooh ! ray lord duke; I think
1 baJbe managed more difficult concerns
in my day,' retarned. the opinionative
duel ess, who had seldom known what
it was to be thwarted in anything she
took 'into her head, 'just let your
'Grace promise not to interfere with my
proceedings, and I promise you that
tnis silly heir of ours shall morry the
lady whom I have chosen for hire, and
of whom you opprove.'
' Well, my dear, I shall not meddle
in the matter,' replied the meek husb-
and, 'as I would certainly prefer - this
unien with Lady Elizabeth hope. But
not at the expense of his happiness.
Act fairly, mylady ; convince and con-
vert him, if you can ; but all by fair
means, and fair means only.'
4 •!air means l' muttered the duchess,
as lier husband walked away ; 'all
means are . fair where the end in view
is fo cure a foolisbboy ,of an unworthy
fancy. Mackay, truly 1' - -
The conversation here :.related took
place at Drumlanrig Castle„ the :magni-
ficent seat (I QueEnSburry family in
Dumfriesshii e. As may be understood,
the eldest son of the self --willed duchess
Henry Lord Druinlanrig, had fixed, his
affeetions on . a Miss Mackay, a lady of
respectable though not elevated station,
and of great beauty and aecemplish-
men s. She returned with equal,
•ardour, the passion of the young
nobleman, and correspondence was car-`
riedl on between them of a very affee-
tionitte nature. But when Lord Drum-
laaarig informed his parents of his at-
tachment, one of them, as we have seen,,
was anything but ,pleased to hear ( f the
circumstance. The duchess had already
settled decisively in her own mind that
Lady -Betty Hope, eldest daughter of

should wed her -son. hat steps she
took to bring this naatcl about must

'It is rather unmannerly, my Lord
Drumianrig, to contradict me thus, es-
