Miser atteetinta. Lady Mary illeasieg and Csilseoima Lean. Ix* of her own selection. To Lachmehea seesselingly our hero is sent, with the Lards Lyndessy and Ruthven, when t he hapless Queen is forced to sign her abdication of the throne. The portraits of these Noblemen...id shine of Murray and Morton, are worthy of Vandyke; nor is the limner less happy in the Lady of Lochmaben, the mother of the Regent, whose hatred of Many is aggravated by her legitimate descent—a living re proach to ha amour with James V. ' But the highest effort is the character of Mary herself. After all that has been written upon that subject. it appears as fresh and original as if un touched by other hands—. powetful, natural, and exquisite perforiasuce. The traits. however. ate so blended with the greater portion of the book, that it must he read to give an idea of their captivating nature. We shall only select what raw be intelli gibly separated : " Her face, her form. have been so deeply its pressed upon the imagination, that, even at the die. tance of nearly three centuries, it is unnecessary so remind the most ignorant and uninformed reedit of the striking traits which characterise that re markable countenance, which orals at once to combine our ideas of the majestic, the pleasing, and the brilliant, leaving us to doubt whether they express more happily the Queen, the - beauty. or the accomplished woman. Who is there, at the very mention of Mary Stuart's name, that has not her countenance before him, familiar es that of the mistress of his youth, or the favourite daughter of his advanced age ? Even those who feel themselves com pelled to believe ill, or much of what her enemies I laid to her charge, cannot think without a sigh epee a countenance expressive of any thing rather than the foul crimes with which she was charged when living, and which still continue to shade, if not to hlacken her memory. That brow, so truly oleo and regal —thren eye-brows so regular and graceful, which yet were armed from the charge of regular insipidity by the beautiful effect of the hotel eye's which they over-arched, and which seem to otter a thousand histories—the nose, with all its Grecian precision of outline—the mouth so well proportioned, so sweetly formed, as if designed to speak no thing but what was delightful to hear—the dun. ple chin—the stately swan-like neck, form a coun tenance, the like of which we know not to have ex• fisted in any other character moving in that high class of life, where the actresses se well as the actors command general and undivided attention. It is in vain to ray. that the portraits which exist of this remarkable woman are not like each other ; for amidst their discrepancy. each possesses general features, which the eye at once acknowledges as pe culiar to the vision which our imagination has raised while we read her history for the first time. and which has been impressed upon it by the nu merous prints and pictures which we have seen. Indeed we cannot look on the worst of them, how ever deficient in point of execution, without saying that it is meant for Queen Mary ; and no .sonall instance it is of the power of beauty. that her chiming should have remained the subject tint merely of admiration, but of warm and chivalrous interest, after the lapse of such a length of time. We know that by far the moat acute of those who, in latter days, have adopted the unfavourable view of Mary's character, longed. like the executioner before his dreadful task was performed. to kiss the fair hand of her on whom he was about to perform so horrible a duty." Perhaps we cannot pourtray her better than by copying a passage of the audience given to the ad verse Lords. Lord Rutliven reads the deed of renunctation :-... " ' And is this all my loving subjects require of me, my Lord ?' said Mary, in a tone of bitter irony. • Do they really stint themselves to the rosy boon that I should yield up the crown, which is mine by birilt•right, to an infant, which is scarcely more than a year old—fling down my sceptre and take up a distaff? Oh. no lit is too little foe them to ask.... that other roll of parchment contains something harder to be complied with, and which may more highly tax my readiness to comply with the petition of my lieges.' .4 • This, parchment,' answered Ruthren. in the same tone of inflexible gravity, and unfolding the instrument as he spoke, 'is one by which your Grace constitutes your nearest in blood and the mast homierable and trustworthy of your subjects, I t Jams*, Earl of Murray, Regent of the Kingdom. dark/ the minority of the mum King.
