Although both seemed persons of distinction, one appeared, from the defer- { ence and respect which her éoihpanion paid ’ her, to be of superior rank and importance. She seemed about twenty years of age, was exquisitely fair, tall, and finely formed, with features of almost p3riect regularity, , large blue eyes, long flowing auburn hair, i and a gait that seemed to unite the majesty ' of the swan with the lightness and graceful- i 11033 of an ierial being. ller companion I would, in the absence of her superior, have been culislllt'l‘eil exquisite-Iv beautiful. She i “as of shorter stature, and of a somewhat l rounder figure ; at least, as she stood by the i side of her friend, her form suffered in com- I parison with the perfect symmetry and ele~ ganee of the latter. Her complexion was dark, and her eyes and hair of a jet black hue. She appeared to be exerting her powâ€" g ers of raillery at the expense of her com- panion, and yet seemed at times to be agi- tated by r. deeper feeling, and to he person- ally iutereated in the subjoet of their con~ y‘ersatiun. "Nay, gentle Eleanor!" said the fair lady. “spare me, I beseech you. I said . but that the youth was handsome, and of manners and deportnnfint far superior to his l apparent condition; and that since I have been on this visit to the Duchess, he is con- tinually haunting the neighborhood of the palace. When I go out. he in at the gates â€"he crosses my path in my 'most retired and distant walks; and when I return, I find ‘ him at the gates again. Thinkest thou, Eleanor, that l, with the royal blood of Scotland in my veins. can be mad or \i'eak enough to cherish afi‘eetioH for a nameless, an unknown, perhaps ait infamous person, especially when l have by my side so n blc an example as thou, who. heinav the. daugh- ter of a Scottish Baron, Want too proud to , wed an English Knight, Sir Ilobert Clif- l ford 2" l " Nay, nay, Madam,” said Eleanor, “nnineless and unknown he is, but I will i not belieh- he is infamous.

'Iho real and fervor with which Eleanor dim-binned any intention of disparaging the intlrits of the youth ,were Mich, that had the Lady Katherine really entertained an afl'ee- tion for him, they might have awakened jealousy in her mind.

Would, we xld that the latter fluurished there in the high p'mces as heretofore.” Thus saying. the Lady Katherine began to descmnl thc‘ Steep bank at the river, fur the pmpmc r! gathering the roses which grew nhunt midway huLWeen the path on the top of the bank and the Med 0! the stremn. “ Stay, stay, gentle Mmhun," said luleanur. endem’ming to detain her.

Suddenly a young man sprang from a neio'hlioring thicket; rushed hastily past her, and plunged into the river. At that moment the Lady Katherine, who had sunk beneath the wave, emerged from it. The youth. who appeared to be a dexterous swimmer, immediately caught her in his: arms, and, summiting her head almve'fihe water, here her towards the bank. Terror eeemed alzmeet to haVe deprived her of life, but she clung as it Were instinctively to her deliverer, who soon reached the edge of the river, and leaped onshore with his lovely burden in his arms. Eleanor ran to embrace her mistress and to join her in expressions of gratitude to her preserver. The terror and alarm of the ladies, great as they Were, Were hoWeVer not sullicient to hide the deep blush, \rhich mantled over the checks of both, as they recognized in the young man the person who had so recently formed the subject of their Conversation. The graces of his person fully accounted for the inter- est which he appeared to have excited in the hearts of Katherine and Eleanor. lie was somewhat ahove the middle siza, slightly but elegantly formed, of a fair and ruddy cmnplexion, and 'his features were not only remarkably handsome; but wore such an 1 expression of dignity and majesty as struck i the beholder at once With admiration and y awe. He was plainly aal neatly, hut Int richly. dressed ; and to the romantic imagi- nation of the ladies, appeared to be an em: _ peror in the disguise of a peasant. ” Lady 3" said the youth, gazing passion- ‘ ately on the wan hut still beautiful features of Katherine (lurilun, “ I t; 11313 that you have snstninexl no injury 3’" “ My grt’atest hurt," replied the lady, " has been the terror that l hare snfl‘ereql ;" but her heart told her that her lips'spoke false ; fur her greatest hurt was thel‘e.

Henry the Seventh, who, to add fuel to her ang-r and hatred, was re- ported to behave with great neglect, unkind- . ness, and emu schrity, to her niece, Eliz- aheth of York, whom. as a matter of policy, he had espoused. The whole business of her life seemed to wusist in devising meas- ures for the annoyance of Henry, and run“ during his suit upon the throne uneasy, 1f not insecure. iihe had encouraged the Earl of Lincoln in his rebellion, and useistedhim with men and nloney. She had also ‘ cauns tenaneed the imposture of Lambert Simnel, who hal personated the Earl of \Vuru‘ick, son to the deceased Duke of Clarence. Both these schemes having failed of success, her restless brain was now teeming with Some new intrigue. Size caused it to be re. ported, that the Duke oi York, the Second son of Kin}, Edna-d the Fourth, who was commonly supposed to hare been murdered at the same time with his unfortunate brother, Edward the l’iith, had escaped fi om the assassins, “'03 still living, and would shortly appear at the court of his aunt, the Duchess of Burgundy, for the purpose of claiming her assistance and that of her friends in reeoVering his inheritance, the crown of England. She 'as only in want of some lib agent. to pet‘shndt'o this Duke, whose years, character, and capacity. Would correspond with the history which she in- tended to invent for him. She strovv anxiously to secure the friendship of the neighboring pl‘lllUC‘i, and especially that of the King of Scotland, whose annuity to Henry, and the contignity of whose domin- ions to those of the latter, rendered him a most important ally. She invited his kins. woman, the Lady Katherine Gordon, to her court, where she tin-Med her with the ut- niost respect and distinctiom This lady was accompanied by Eleanor Lyndsay, the daughter of the chcaHml Baron of Glenloch, who, having been left portionless by her father, had entered into a sort of honourable service on the Lady Katherine Her pm" erty did not make her forget her high birth, of which‘ she was! so tenacious, that when Sir Robert Clifford, a wealthy English knight, who stood hiovh in the favour of King Henry, tendered her his hand, she n-jected it with scorn. Love, hotteVer, could make her forget her birth, although power and riches eould not. “'hile Katherine and Eleanor were at the coart of the Lady Mar‘ gal-0t it Was impossible for them not to ob- serve the attentions of the young man who has been already introduced to tllz; reader,‘ and which attentions each lady imagined were directed to herself; The youth was evidently in a humble walk of life.
