Legends Of the BOrne

OF the history of the Castle Of Athlum-
ney aud its adjoining church, in Meath,
Ireland, there is little known with certain.
ty. But standing on the LETT bank Of the
river Boyne, opposite the ruins we clnnot
help recalling the story Of the heroism Of
its lost lord, Sir Launcelot Dowdall, who,
hearing Of the issue Of the Battle Of the
BOyne, and the tate of the monarch to
whom his family was so long attached, and
fearing the approach Of the victorious
English army, declared on the news reach.
ing him, that the Prince Of Orange should
never rest under bis ancestral roof. The
threat was carried into execution. Daw-
dali set fire to his castle at niphtfall, and
crossing the Boyne, sat down upon its Op-
pOsite bank, whence, aS tradition reports,
he beheld the last timber in his noble
mansion, blazing and ilickering In the calm
summers night, ,craShamidst the smOldering
ruins; and when its final eructatiOn otsmOke
and flame was given forth, and the pale
light Of morning was stealing over that
scene Of desoation, with on aching AMI a
dcspairirg heart he turned from the once
happy scene Of his youth and manhood,
and flying to the continent, shortly after
bis cowaIdly master, never returned. All
that remains of this castle and estate were
forfeited in 100.
Tradition gives us another but by no
means 80 probable a version Of the burning
of Athlumney Castle, which refers 1t to an
earlier date. Its said that two sisters Oc-
cupiel the Castles of Athlumney and
Blackcastle which latter was situated on
the opposite bank; that the heroine Of the
latter, Jealous Of her rival in Athlumney,
took the following means Of being reyenged.
She made her enter into an agreement that
to prevent their mansions falling into the
hands Of Cromwell and his soldiers, they
should set fire to them at the same mo-
ment, rs soon rs the news Of his ap-
proach reached them, and that a fire
being lighted upon one, was to be the
signal for the con0agration Of the other.
In the mean time, the willy mistress Of
Blackcastle, had a quantity Of dry brush
wood placed on One Of the towers Of her
castle, which, upon certain night, she
lighted; and the inhabitants Of Athlum-
nCy, percciving the appointed signal, set
fire to their mansion and burned II to
the ground. In the morning the dccep-
tion was manifest. Athlnmney was a
mass Of blackcned, smoking ruins, while
BlaCkCastle still reared its proud form
above the woods, and still afforded shell

SACEcLoTH AND AsHEs.-A Saratoga
correspondent of the Albany Times says
Among the recent arrivals Mt Saratoga is
young gentleman Of great fortune, who
is n regular summer visitor here, and
who has invariably made great display,
This season he proposes to do the place
on u quieter scale, on account of hi'
mothers recent death. This is how he
goes about il: He has n suit Of rooms
ut the Congress that, under his super
vision, have been so arranged ~ to pre-
sent a rOther sombre appearance, for, out
Of respect for his mothers memory, they
have been put in mourning. A deer
black border runs around the ceilings,
Will, the wall paper is Of n very gloomy
color, the furniture, which is from Egypt,
is exceedingly grotesqne in appearance
and mysterious in style; nothing like
it has ever before appeared in Sara
toga The gentleman announces that he
will not enter the ballroom this sum
mer, but will entertain his friends in hi
rooms-in an elegant and costly manner
Of course-no leyity. He is to drive I
fourth hand, his groom and coachmal
are 10 be attired in mourning; aud
mourning lap.robes, like funeral pals
are to be spread over the seats Of hi'
carriages, which will be painted In keep
ing with the labiliments Of woe. Fu
these emblems Of sackcloth and ashes he
PAYS $500 per week. Shoddy society
calls this "filial DEVOTION" and speak,
of him as such good son, "but so odd
and eccentric :" while cOmmon.senst
people are unkind enough TO call him {
snOb, and one of the Ouirs kind.
