QUEEN OF FAIRIES.

QUEEN OF FAIRIES
The late duchess Of Gordon taking an
airing in her carriage in remote part of
the Scottish Highlands, observed, at some
distance from the road, a neat cottage,
surrounded by garden. Her grace pull
ed the check-string, and desired the SER
wants to go round with the carriage to a
place where she desired them to stop,
while she crossed the moor to pay the
cottage visit The duchess happened
to wear green pelisse trimmed with
gold lace, and her hat ornamented with
golden spangles. A girl about twelve
years old, the only person in the cottage,
was spinning at the wheel and singing
merry strain. AS soon as her eye caught
the figure of the duchess approaching,
the green dress, the shining appearance
of the hat, on which the sun shone, all SO
worked on the imagination of the little
girl, that she verify believed the Queen
of Fairies had come to reveal to her some
fearful mystery of fate. In great terror
she escaped to a back closet, where, thro'
a small aperture, she could see without
being seen. The suppo sed Fairy Queen
entered, surveyed the apartment with
curious eye, and then seeing the wheel,
bethought herself of trying to SPIN She
! gave the wheel several turns, but could
no: make tolerabIe thread, though
she twisted up all the carded wool she
could find. AS some compensation for
any injury her awkwardness might have
occasioned, her Grace tied crown piece
in handkerchief that lay upon the table,
fixed it to spoke Of the wheel, and de-
parted. The girl could not summon cou-
rage to venture from her hiding place be-
| fore her father and sister came in, nor
| till some time after could they extract
from her an explanation of the extraordl-
nary perturbation in which they found
her. Their surprise was scarcely less
than hers, when they we're informed that
somebody, who could be no other than
the Queen Of the Fairies, for she was all
| in green and gold, and shining bright as
the sun, had come into the house, and
seeing nobody there, had fallen to be-
witching the wheel, which as sure as fai-
| ries, would never go again! "And see,'
continued the young enthusiast, pointing
to the handkerchief tied on the spoke,
something which she has left The
father united the handkerchief, and the
sight Of the sterling piece Of coin which
it contained, soon dispelled from his
