• under the wane of, The Beauty of tiittitrin:'re.,- To
beauty, however, in the 544 sense of the word,
She has small pretension, for she is rather gap-
toothed, and sornzwhat yock.fretten. Rut her lace
is very enpressive,•and the expression extremely in-
teresting, and her figure and movemmis are grace.
fol to a miracle. Site ought indeed to have been
called the Grace of Butterinere, rather than the
Beauty. She is the daughter of an old couple,
named Robinson, who keep a poor little pot.liouse
at the foot of the small lake of Buttermt4e, with
the sign of the Char, and has been all her life the
attendant and waiter, for they have no servaot.
She is now about thirty, and has long attratfled the
notice of every visitor by her exquisite elegance,
and the becoming manner in' which she is used to
fillet her beaulifol long hair; like-,:se by the un-
commonly fine Italian hand-writing in which the
little bill was drawn out. Added to this, she has
ever maintained an irreproachable character, is a
good daughter, and a modest, sensinle, and observant
woman. That such a woman should find a husband
in a man of rank and 'fortune, so very far above her
sphere of life, is tan very extraorditiary ; but there
ire other circumstances which add much to the in.
serest of the story. Above two months ago, Mr.
H. YE went to Buttermere upon a fishing exp:di-
tion, in his own carriage, but without any ser-
vants, and took up his abode at the house kept
by . the father of the Boau7y of Buttertriere, in
the neighbourhood of which he was called the
Honourable CHARLES HOPE, Member for Dim_
fries. Here he pod his addresses to a Lady of
youth, beauty, and good fortune, and obtained het
consent. The wedding clothes were bought, and
the day fixed for their marriage, when he feigned
a pretence for absenee, and married the Beauty of
Buttermere. The mistake in the name, the want of
an establishment suited to his rank, and the circum-
stance 4.)i his attaching hinhelf to a young Lady of
fortune, had excited much suspicion, and many began
toconsider hint an impostor. His marriage, however,
with a pour girl without money, family, or expec-
tations, has weakened the suspicions entertained to
his disA v amaze ; but• the interest which the good
i,eopie of Keswick take in the welfare of the Beauty
,f Butterinet-, has not yet suffered them to entirely
•übside, anti they await with anxiety the &I-tomcat
when
.they shall receive decisive proofs That the
Bridegroom is the real person whom he describes
himself to be, The circumstances of his marriage
are sufficient to s.itisly us that he is noimpostor;
ind, therefore, we may vervure to t%)..;,lratiliate the
Beauty of Butterm-re u.ion her g 'od fortune. The
