w. x. VanderbiIt's Home in Scotland.

The castle of Beaufort, in inverness
shire, which has been rented by Mr. and
Mrs w h. Vanderbilt from Lord Lovat
for the remainder of the year, is huge
picturesque building with dark red facade
and gray slated roofs with many turrets
and gables. pertaining 10 the Scotch 5a-
ronial style of architecture.
1t is, however. quite modern, having been
erected about forty years ago by the late
Lord Lovat to replace the unpretentlous
little house which had been the residence
of the Lords Of Lovat since the burning of
the old castle in the stormy days of the
1745 Iacobite rebellion. The entrance hall
of the castle is panelled with oak and on
the walls hangs a collection OF Old wea-
ponS and arlnor of great historic and fam
lily interest, among them the muskets car
ried by the Fraser Highlanders. who fought
in Canada and who distinguished them
selves at the Storming of Quebec. From
the hall one enters the great gallery. a no
BILE apartment. with lofty open roof and
immense bay windows, commanding
splendid view. Among the paintings are
Hogarth's striking preSentment of Simon,
Lord Lovat, known in Scottish history by
the surname Of The Traitor and other
family portraits, by Reynolds. by Law
renee and by Watts. Elsewhere in the
drawing rooms and library are many Stuart
relics, including a veil worn by Mary Queen
of Scots a feature OF the castle is the
beautiful private chapel, with delicately
tinted walls, altar and reredos of pure
white marble and stained glass windows.
the latter added by Lord Lovats mother
seven years ago as a thank offering for
the safe return of her three sons from the
Boer war. The Lords of LOvat. | need
scarcely add, are Roman Catholics
Lord Lovat's possessions in Scotland ex-
tend some two hundred thousand
acres in Inverness-shire and Ross-shire and
il was from the members of the Fraser
clan living on the estates clan of which
he is the chieftain, that he raised the regi-
ment of Lovat's Scouts, which did such ex-
cellent service in the South African war
ten years ago. He also owns a consider
able tract of land in the Orange River
Colony, on which a number of his High
landers have settled. Lord Lovat, who is
an inveterate bachelor, lives most of his
life a great Highland laird among his
own people, and when he lets Beaufort

chief secretary of that presidency, has
been a source of no end of trouble to the
British government since his retirement
from the Indian bench, owing to the en-
couragement which he has given to the
Nationalist movemen; in Englands S great
Oriental empire.
In fact, Sir Mancheriee Bhownageree,
who enjoys the distinction of having been
the only native of East India to occupy a
seat in the English House of Commons,
has charged Sir William in Parliament at
Westminster with being the one Individual
more responsible than any one else, dusky
skinned or white hued, for the disanection,
the Sedition and the animosity to British
rule, rampant for the last ten or hfteen
years throughout the length and breadth
of Hindustan. Sir Mancherjee added, from
his place in the House of Commons, that
the abuse and reproaches heaped by native
newspapers and native orators alike upon
the English in India are mere echoes and
repetitions of the articles contained in the
newspapers with which Sir William IS iden-
titled and in the innumerable pamphlets
which he Is forever writing.
Sir William Wedderburn's attitude is all
the more astonishing since his elder broth
er. the latter's wife and their little child
were put to death under circumstances o.
particular atrocity at Hissar, in upper In
iia by the rebels in the great Indian Mu-
tiny of 1857
The Wedderburns are a very old Scot
tish family, who are first heard of in his
tory in connection with the oath of fealty
sworn by Walter de Wedderburn to King
Edward / of England, at Berwick-on-
Tweed, August IS. 1896. The Wedderburns
were among the earliest Scotch Reformers
and produced the so-called Wedderburn
Psalms while Robert Wedderburn. rector
of Dundee was the author of that remark

of the family descended from John We'd

Bishop of Dunblane, friend and associate Of
Arch bishop Laud), settled in Moravia, where
his descendants still flourish under the
