Anecdotes of Scott.
No pleasanter ancedot.es . hive
been told of any man. These are-
:generally well known; but I will
trust that the following may be new
to my readers.' Mrs., John Ballan-
tyne was just married. She .was
young, the beauty of Edinburg, and,
half spoiled by flattery. She was to
meet Sir Walter at dinner; and re-
solved to )put on airs, and show Hai
.great IiGn of the time that she was
cot to be brought to fawn even at
his feet. He asked her to take a
glass of wiue, and she, affected not
tolhear him,; but` the great roan, in.-
stead
n-
:stead. of .noticiug this girlish folly,
proceeded to talk to her with such
politeness that she speedily felt
.ashamed of herself, This lady re-
lated that. once, at her own table, on
the occasion of a large and. cer-
cmonious dianer-party, there was a
scarcity of spoons, and .what added
to the awkwardness, at the..precise
:moment when . the servant - was
washing the spoons for farther use a
'most determined pause in the con-
.
dccurred The silence
was so profound that no ;sound was!
to be heard savel the whispers of the
servants just ; without; and the
washing of the spoons. • .At last the
blushing lady's husband -drank "Re-
lief to all in distress," which brake the
spell, and set all laughing, while Mr.
James allantyne Tailed out, with a
• line. of Shakspeare :
." My lord,' my lord, methinks you'd
spare your spoons !"
`r Not I,° indeed, my . lord," respond
.ed Mrs. B., "for I haye none t
spare." "Not : amiss," ' said -Si
Wafter, in genial recognition of th
lady's hit, Next day a parcel cam
to her, directed in- an unmistakabl
handwriting, containing a dozen o
the handsomest spoons that could
be obtained in Edinburgh. •
This same old lady related a story
iwhich el'eserves to be told as one of
the most singular among the curiosi
.ties of literature. She relates that
•once when her brother -in law James
was reading to her, Scott entered,
mad told him to go on reading, • As
the reader proceeded, Sc6tb at first
nodded approbation, then said,
" Good!" next, " Very good. I"
Charming I" " Powerful!" until
a,t last the upper lisp began to elon-
gate, and even to tremble, and the
'teats fell. SDatching his staff, he
strode across the room, and 'looked
-over Mr.. Ballantyne's shoulder to
.:see what "the volume was. It was
•the. "Lay of the Last. Minstrel."
Ile was quite in discomfiture, dash -
•ed the tears: indignantly from his
eyes; utterd an impatient, "Pshaw,1"
and said, "Cod help me, James ; lI
am loaing my memory. —Havel s
