SCOTLAND.

HER MAJESTY IN THE HIGHLANDS.
There is rather a remarkable incident still left un-
told, connected with her Majesty's journey to Balmoral,
which, though now a little eat of place, may perhaps be in-
teresting to that portion of our readers who love antiquities,
and gardenia:ly stories connected with the " Risiutp" in 'l6
and '46. All must be familiar with the fact that the Standard
of Rebellion in 1716 was raised at Braemar, but very
few are swan that when the royal carriage drew up at
the " languid Arlan" her Majesty was within lasi
Men twenty yards of the very spot—a small knoll, but a
tew lest to the northward ot the inn. George Charles,
While speaking of the greet Jacobite meeting which
lintnikter Brunt" says," The Batt of Mar
the Chevalier's steedud there on the 6th of
IlleSember, 1716, and proclaimed him King of Scotland,
lbglend, Franey, sad Inland. This standard, 'zippered to
be made by the earl's wife, was very elegant; the colour was
blue, having the Scottish arms wrought in gold on one side,
and on the esher the Scottish thistle, with these word. un-
derneath, ' No union,' and on the top the ancient motto,
' Nemo me lingua lscessit.' It had pendants of white'
ribbon, one of which had these words written upon For
our wronged king and oppressed country.' The other
ribbon had ' For our lives and liberties.' It is reported
that when the standard wee first erected, the ornamental
bell an the top fell off—a circumstance which greatly de-
pressed the spirit of the Hidhianders, whose superstitious
prejudices led them to regard it as ominous of
sidgetuos to the canes in which they embarked..
Set los Braemar of those days was very different from
Neordear as we know It. All its glens were then thickly
=dwith stout hardy Highlands" who had never
e defeat, and wha only spoke their own
native tongue ; it boasted of many a brave chief of
the name of Farquhsnen, whose race almost perished

almost primaeval " Forest of Mar," the royal hunting
ground of the Kings of Scotland for many hundred
years, which ruins of Malcolm Caen Mbor's Castle of Kin-
drochet," on the south bank of the Cluny, still moulder to
tell. But now in principal glens (Glenquoich, Glenbui,
Gleney, and Glenna) have been depopulated its native
chiefs, with the exaption of Inverrauld, have disappeared;
its earl's famous hunting-mat accidentally burned to the
ground some 70 years ago and lei great forest cut down to a
