nurkable one, of the French make.

NUPTIALS OF A HIGHLAND Cnteoratx.---Whether
of a Highland chieftain the birth, the death, or the
marriage, is attended with most expenses, it is perhaps
not easy to determine. At the burial of a former Laird
lof Coll, " thirty cows, and about fifty sheep," were, as
Dr. Johnson records, killed. At the birth of an heir,
whole hecatombs are sacrificed, not unaccompanied by
liberal libations. And to shew that the nuptials of a
Chief are not uncelebrated, the subsequent extract
may suffice: " Coll, August 8, 1825.
" Yesterday, the nuptials of young Coll was celebrated here in
grand style. A vast bonfire invited the inhabitants, at an early
hour, to the summit of a high hill. The whole Island was
in agitation. In a short time the hill was all alive, and except
itself, a ticket might be put up for "an Island to let." The com-
pany were seated in the open air. The groaning tables began to i.e
gradually relieved; mountain-dew was dealt mod unparsimn.
niously ; the warlike tone of many bagpipe., added to the enthu-
siasm; and the great' cannon reported the whole to the pries-
'bouring Islands! The bonfire was supported till a late boor, at
the expense of an adjacent forest. It had a sublime effect at night !
The occasion gave birth to dances—to me most antic. It the
meeting was pleasant, the breaking up was merry."
