BURNS AND HIS "HIGHLASD MARY ~

by Mrs. JamesOB in her Loves Of the

and passionate admiration of poetic ge-

Whatever this young girl may have
been IN person or condition, she mast
have possessed some striking qualities
and charms TO have inspired u passion
so ardent aud regrets 30 lasting, in a

his first love, nor his second, nor his
third; for from the age Of sixteen, there
seems to have been no interreRnum in
his fancy. Ills heart, he says, "was
completely tinGer, aud eternally light

acquaintance with Mary Campbell be-
gan when he was about two or three
and tweniyj he was then residing at
MOssgeil, with bis brother, and she
was a servant on q neighbOriDg farm.
Their affection was reciprocal, aud
they were solemnIy Plghted to each
other. We met says Burns by
appointment, on the secend Sunday ia

banks Of the Ayr, where we spent a
day "a taking a farewell, before she
should embark Tor the West Highlands,

to meet her lover, rs l suppose to take
leave Of him; for il should seem that

Mary Campbell was a poor peasant
girl, whose life had been spent in SER
vile Offices. who could just spell a verse
in her Bible, and could not write at
all; who walked barefoot to that meet

her lover has recorded. But Mary
