The youth, after taking his leave of the ‘ two ladies at the gates of the palace of Duchess of Burgundy, directed his steps homewards. Arrived there, he threw him- self on his couch, and gave vent to the feel- ings which agitated his bosom. “ Alas ! alas !" he said, “ wherefore do I allow this fatal passion and these wild hopes to disturb my peace? How dare I, the son of an humble clothworker in the tOWn of Tourney, drawn to Ghent in the hope of obtaining a situation in the army of the Duchess of Bur: guiidy, lift my afl'ectioas so high as the princely heiress of the house of Huntley, in whose veins runs the blood ray! of .8002:- land? Yet an irresistible destiny seems to impel me towards her. Some‘ unseen being seems to whisper in my ear, that her for- tunes and mine are indissoluhly linked to- gether. Are they the oracles of fate, or the juggling counsels of some lying fiend that 1 am listening to? Surely the hopes that swell my bosom, the visions of power and glory that rise before my imagination like things of celestial birth dropt suddenly from heaven, the crown that appears to en- circle my brows, the sceptre that I so often seem to graspâ€"surely these are glimpses at the volume of futurity, which some super- ior and beneVelent being has opened to my gifted eye.” His mind continued to breed over such ideas as these; wealth and do- minion and pomp seemed to surround him ; but, amidst all these dreams of splendour, the lovely form of Katherine Gordon ap- peared to mingle as the presiding deity of the whole, and he felt that. to he possessed of her, he could resign all the other glitter- ing phantoms that presented themselves to his imagination. At an early hour of the next day he pro- ceeded, in pursuance of the permission granted him by the Lady Katherine, to in- quire after the health of the platen whom he had been so fortunate as to tescue from a. watery grave. He was immeaately ush- ered into a stately chamber, whose costly decorations Were in perfect accordance with the magnificence and opulence of the princely owner of the palace. Here he found at the upper end of the chamber, seated on an ele- vated platform beneath a can’py, a lady who, although evidently coniiderably ad- vanced in years, still retained much of per. sonal grace and beauty. Her long flowing locks Were whitems silver ; her face, al- though time had planted his wrinkles there. were an extraordinary expression of min gled majesty and sweetness ; and her large black eyes seemed yet to sparkle with the fires of youth, and bent a glance on the youth, as he approached. that appeared to penetrate his very soul, and seemed to denote a mind of dimensions correspondent 'with those of her tail and almost gigantic form. By her side set the Lady Katherine Gordon, whose slender and elegant figure was advantage- ously contrasted to the dignified and majes- tic, but somewhat masculine department of the Duchess of Burgundy. Behind the for- mer stood Eleanor Lyndsay; thile on the choir of the latter leaned on old man with pale and withered features. a lo. and sunk- en but sparkling gray eye, Ind diminutive form, and whose curled lip and lowering In hthc balmy April weather, ylovc. you know, W hen the com began to "row “X but; walks we took togctltel , \Vlmt siuhs we lneathedfl togcb her, “’lmt vows we pledged together, In the days ol long ago. 1!.

To this person the Duchess whispered, while a. mingled expression of surprise and pleasure luautled over her fea- tures, as the young man bent his knee bo- foro her. ” "l‘is the youth, may it please your Grace," said the Lady Katherine, “ to whom I was yesterday indebted for tho preserva- tion of my life." “And right welcome, fair cousin,” said the Duchess, “ is he into our presence, were it but for thy sake; yet his noble features and hie princely demeanour carry, lnebhinks WW‘IUJ‘d’ own recommendation. He i; wondrous him my brother, Firon,” she added, turning to the old man hehlud her chair, and speaking in the English language, whereas she had as yet expressed herself in French. “ He is the very person," replied Frion, speaking in the same language, “ of whom We have been so long in want. If his menâ€" bal powc-s equal his personal endowments, (and, methmks, if I have any skill in physâ€" iog'mrny, that they (10,) this is the bolt that, hurled by your vigorous hand, shall dash the tyrant from his throne.” “ By Heaven !” said the Duchess, who. durinrl this colloquy had narrowly watched the oxpressxon of the youth’ 8 font“ cs, “ he comprehcnds the nature of our conversation. Youngmun,’ ’she added, turning towards him‘, “ you understand English ‘3” “ Even so, Madam," said the youth ; " it is indeed my native tongue. My father’s bus‘ness drew him for awhile to reside in the famous city of London, in the days of your royal brother, King Edward the Fourth, of glorious memory. There his wife brought me into the world, and the King, out of a religious nobleness, because my father was a Jewish convert, stood god- father to his child.” “Ha !” said the Duchess, her eye flash- ing still more brightly at every syllable which the youth uttered. “ Tell me thy name and age.” “ Bfthe mother of God 2” said the Duch- ess, again turning to her aged counsellor, “My name," he said “is Perkin War- back; and at my next birthday I shall be twenty-three years of age." “ ’tis the very age which my nephew, the Duke. of York would have attained had he been now living. And what,” she added, once more addressing Warbeck, “is your business in Ghent 2” “My parents,” he replied, “by whose industry I wai; supported, are dead. I can- not bend myself to the trade which they followed. I burn to distinguish myself in arms; and hearing that your Grace was raising an army against the English tyrant, Henry Tudor, who has usurped the throne of my royal godfather, I bout my step: to Ghent in the hope that you will permit me to enlist myself in your service.” “ Gallant spirit !” said the Duchess : “ it is indeed the very being whom I have been so long seeking. Fair cousin,” she added, addressing the Lady Katherine Gordon, and putting a chain of gold of exquisite work. manship around Warbeck’s neck, “permit me to present this testimony of regard to your brave prescrver, and to hope that a more substantial reward is yet awaiting him. Young men, we will talk to you more anon. My secretary, Frion, shall call on you at your residence, and acquaint you more at large with my intentions towards you. It is in your own power,” she added, in a low- or tone, which was audible only to Warheck "if you follow implicitly my counsels and instructions, to become the foremost man in Europe. Away! and remember that wealth, and power. and dignity, attend on those who are honoured with the friendship of Margaret of York; but that ignominy and destruction are their lot who slight her fa~ vors and reject her benefits.” Warbeck bent his knee, made it lowly obeissnce, and then retired from the apert- ment and the palace. The wild dreams which he had enteitsined seemed to be con- verting themselves into realities; the dubi- ons and uncertain hopes that agitated his bosom, to be expanding into substantial cer- tainties : the cloud that had stood (Inkling between his present obscure state and his nmbitioue visions of futurity, to be melting away, and revealing in all its brightness the glorious destiny which was reserved for him.

I hiwe matter uf serionsiinport to communicate to you; Endunvo; to elevate your mind to the height of the glorious destiny which the Duchess is prglnnring for you.” “Say on, say on,” said Warbeok, " my mind is already prepared ! I burn with de- sire to know the bencficont intentions of the Duchess." “ In your interview with the Lady Mar- garet,” said lr‘rion, “you expressed your s. hostiiity to Humy Tudor, and your desire to sea the injuries of the House of York avenged.” “ I would shed the dearest blood in my veins," said “'arbcck; “I would endure captivity and famine. ignomiuy and death, to attain such a cans-rumination.” "Yoia are not asked.” said Frion, “to undergo all or any of these sufl‘ei-ings to at- iniu that end. On the contrary, you are asked to accept of wealth and honour,â€"-to encircle with a. diarlcm your brows,â€"-to place the regal purple on your shoulders." “ What mean you 2" said “'arbeck, in a. tone of mysterious wonder. “ She whom I adore may boaat indeed that the blood of kings runs “in her veins. But she is far dis- tant from any prospect of wearing the din- dem on her brow, or the regal purple on her shoulders." ' It was now the secretary's turn to wear a. look of wonder. “Young man," he said, “ you seem nut to understand my meaning. I must be more explicit. You have' hemd of the adventures and fate of Lambert Sim- nel.” “The young protege of the priest Simon,” said Warheck, “Who was mad enough to assume successively the characters of tha Earl of \Varwick and the Duke of York 3 one of whom is now a prisoner in the Tow- er, and ten long years have rolled oVer the grave of the other.” “Ten long years have rolled over the grave of the Duke of York, says't thou 2" said Frion. “Who ever saw his grave. or knows that he ever descended into it 2 That madness of Simnel’s, as thou callest it, would have shaken King Henry from his throne had the youth possessed thy genius, thy aspiring mind, and thy wonderful re- semblance in form and feature to the de- ceased King, Edward the Fourth.” Wax-heck started,” a sudden light seemed to flash upon his mind, the precursor of the storm by which in an instant afterwards his whole frame was agitated. He sunk into his chair, and hid his face for several min- utes in his hands, while his breast heaved tnmultnously, and the cold drape poured down his brow. Frion fixed his keen, soul- searching gaze upon him, and was silent until he saw that his pupil’s emotion was somewhat moderated. “ These, Master Secretary,” said War- beck, starting from hil seat, and pacing hurriedly up and down the apartment, "are dark and mysterious words. I comprehend them not. I expected a message of a differ- ent import from you. I pray you, speak no longer in riddles; show me your meaning undisgnised.” I “Then know, young man,” answered Frion, “that the people of England are weary of their tyrant and his Lanceurian myrmidone. They believe that the Duke of York is yet alive, and in some place of concealment, under the maternal care of the Indy Margaret. Lot any person memo ing his name come forward, acknowledged by the Duchess of Burgundy, and assisted by the Kings of Frmce and Scotland, and his road to the royal throne of England in easy and euro." “ And where,” said Wat-beck, “ em you find an impostor bold enough to attempt An enterprise so wild and perilous 2" "1 can find him, I think,” said Man, “in one whose aspiring Ion] even 110* spurns his inglorious station ; in one whose lofty and ardent mind is Well typified in his princely and majestic per-on ; in one who” first presence opened to him a place in the heart and affection: of Margaret of Bar- gundy 3â€"in Perkin Wan-beck l” ‘Vete for Camera}: end. better rem- Ratepayers, do {on want to have m monav sauna and?
