SCOTTISH ANECDOTE,
BY THE ETTRICK sHEPHER

I e EFT r lex SH p d.
In Appin, there is a public house, cal
led Tigh-phortna-croise. To this house
a "red-coat'' came one day, and while
taking his dram, entertained the land
lord and couple Of his friends, with sto-
ries of battles, Of imminent dangers, and
hair-breadth escapes. He was asked
the most revolving sight he had ever
seen. He answered he had seen many,
but the massacre Of Glencoe, beat them
all. He there saw sixteen men bound
hand and foot, placed side by side on a
bench, and sixteen musket balls fired
through their brave hearts. The land
lord Immediately beckoned out one of
his friends. "My father, (said he, y was
one of those sixteen-the red-coat was
one ofhis murderers. l am resolved to
run him through with my dirk this in
stant." "Agreed, my brave Donald"
said his neighbor, "but first let us hear
more ofhis stories" They went in to-
gether, and, the red-coat proceed ded.--
"About dawn, we were under orders to
quit Glencoe; we heard the eam of a
child, little way up the hill; the Cap
tain said to nae, "Go Duncan, run that
child through if it be a male, but if be
female, spare it," / climbed up and
saw decent looking woman, with a
blanket about her, and forcing a corner
oft into the child's mouth, to keep it from
crying, to prevent discovery. My heart
melted with pity; went back, and
though at the risk Of my life, | told the
Captain it was female child" W was
that child, exclaimed the landlord y that
woman was my mother--olten has she
told me the tale, with tears of gratitude,
but moment ago was resolved to slay
you; but now put off that red-coat, and
be my son forever"
