my youthful flames. 1t would be
considered as no compliment to the
dead or the living. This will say:
they were all modest and virtu-

Jefferson's first love occurred when
he, a youth of nineteen years, was go
ing to college at Williamsburg. His
lnamorata was Rebecca Burwell, and
his letters of this date are full of her
and his love. He devotes many pages
to his grief over losing watch-paper
which she had cut for him,
and on Christmas day. 1852,
he wrote letter about his sweetheart
to his friend John Page which
would have filled, says Parton, twelve
modern sheets of letter paper. He
was continually comparing her to the
loves of the poets, and copies of love
songs written by Jefferson at this
time are still in existence. Hesighed for
year before he broached the subject
OF marriage in stammering way at
ball. Miss Burwell did not give him
an explicit reply, and a short time af-
terwarls he found she was engaged to
another.
James Madison fell in love with the
daughter of General William Floyd
while he was delegate to the Cont
mental Congress. He was only twenty
eight years old then, was slckly, short,
and not good looking. Miss Floyd
rejected him and he wrote his grief TO
Jefferson.

A Daughter of Burns,
Srom the Pan Mall Gazette.

From the Pail Mall Gazette.
It will surprise many and may in
terest few of your readers to learn
there died at Moffat on the 18th oi
last month veritable though illegiti-
mate daughter of thepo Burns. The
old lady in question, Helen Armstrong
by name, who was 81 or SO years OF
age, resided for many years in Moffat
in the same little back street In which
she was born somewhere about the
year 1888. The fact of her relation
ship to Burns was we'll known in Moi
fat and the heneighborhood. Her moth
or, Nelly Hvsloy, was beauty in her
day, and Burns was for some time a
devoted admirer of hers. Helen is
said to have borne a strong resem-
blance to Burns in her earlier days,
and indeed the likeness to the portrait
of Burns was traceable to the last In
the contour of the face and in the
dark bright eyes, dimmed as they
were by age and sickness. Nor vas the
likeness confined TO physical points;
in her mental powers Helen showed q
strain Of the political blood. A few
years ago her conversational powers
and her quickness OF repartee were
most amusing and attractive. Even
few months since, when well enough
to talk. her conversation WAS highly
interesting. Helen's life, as far as !
can learn, was not q very eventful
one. She went to service at a very
early age-7, I think. She belonged to
that genus OF Scotch servants, still ex-
tant though rather rare, who remain
years III one 'place" and identify
their employers interests with their
own. She was thirty years in one sit
uation at Tie Buccieuch Arms Inn, at
Thornhill, with a family named Glen
dinning.
