THE ROBBER’S SKAITft 
Wuli.ib Baiuk was a household name 
about a liundmi yearn ago, in the upper 
parts of Clydesdale. Men, woman and chil¬ 
dren had heard of Willie, and the greater 
proportion had seen him. Few, in his time, 
could excel Willie in dexterity in his profes¬ 
sion, which consisted often of abstracting 
money from people’s pooketa, and in oilier 
predatory feata. He frequented the fairs 
all round tho district and no man’s purse 
was safe if Willie happened to be in the 
market The beautiful village of Moffat, in 
Annandale, was one of his frequent places 
of resort when any of its fairs happened to 
be held, and here, among tho honest far¬ 
mers, he was invariably successful; and, to 
show his professional skill on such occasions, 
he has been known to rob a man and re¬ 
turn his purse to him two or throe times in 
the same day; but this he did only with his 
intimate friends, who were kind to him in 
providing lodgings, when plying lrn nomi¬ 
nal occupation of tinker from one farm-house 
to another; in the case of others, it was, 
of course different. His wife abetted him 
in all his thieving exploits, and generally 
sat in a place in the outskirts of the town, 
that had been previously fixed on, and there 
received in silence whatever spoil her 
husband might throw incidentally into 
her lap in the shape of her fairing. But 
Willie was a privileged freebooter, was gen¬ 
erous withal, and well liked by the people 
in the neighborhood, on whom he rarely 
committed any acts of plunder, and any 
one might hare, trusted what he called his 
“ lionor.” 
Willie’s character was well known, both 
to high and low, and he became renowned 
for a heroism which few who esteem re¬ 
spectability would now covet Tho high es¬ 
timation in which lie was held as an adept 
in his profession, induced a Scottish noble¬ 
man to lay a high bet with an Englishman 
of some rank, that Willie would actually rob 
and fairly despoil a certain noted riever on 
the southern side of the border, who was 
considered one of the most daring and dex¬ 
terous that frequented the highways in those 
dubious times, and one whose exploits the 
gentleman was in the habit ot extolling. The 
Scottish nobleman conferred with Willie, 
and informed him of the project—a circum¬ 
stance which mightily pleased our hero, and 
into which he entered with all enthusiasm. 
Tlve interest which Willie took in the mat¬ 
ter was to the nobleman a guarantee of ul¬ 
timate success; and, haring given all the 
marks of the robber, and directed him to 
the particular place on the road where he 
was sure to meet with him, ho left it to 
Willie himself to arrange tho subsequent 
mode of procedure. 
Willie’s ingenuity was instantly at work, 
and he concocted a scheme which fairly 
carried him through the enterprise, tie 
got an old, frail looking pony, partially lame, 
and with long, shaggy hair. He filled a 
bag of considerable dimensions with a great 
quantity of old buttons, and useless pieces 
of jingling metal He next arrayed him¬ 
self in beggarly habiliments, with clouted 
shoos, tattered under-garments, a cloak 
mended in a hundred places, and a soiled 
broad-brimmed bonnet on his head. The 
mew^y-bag he tied firmly behind the Raddle; 
he placed a pair of pistols under his coat, 
and a short dagger close by his side. Thus 
accoutered, he wended his way slowly to¬ 
ward the border, both he and the animal 
apparently in the last stage of helplessness 
and decrepitude. The bag behind was care¬ 
fully covered by the cloak, that spread its 
duddy folds over the hinder parts of the 
poor lean beast that carried him. Sitting 
in a crouching posture on the saddle, with 
a long beard and an assumed palsied sha¬ 
king of the hand, nobod} r would have con¬ 
ceived for a moment that W illie was a man 
in the prime of life, of a well built, athletic 
frame, with more power in his arm than 
three ordinary men, and of an intrepid and 
adventurous spirit, that feared nothing, but 
dared everything. In this plight, our wor¬ 
thy went dodging over the border, and en¬ 
tered the neighboring kingdom, where eve¬ 
ry person that met him regarded him as a 
poor, half-insane body, fit only to lie down 
at the side of a hedge, and die unheeded, 
beside the crazy steed. In this way, he 
escaped without suspicion, and advanced 
without any adventure to the skirts of the 
of the wood, where he expected to encoun¬ 
ter his professional brother. 
When Willie entered the road that led 
through the dark and suspicious forest, he 
was all on the alert for the highwayman.— 
Every rustling among the trees arrested his 
attention, not knowing but a whizzing ball 
might in a moment issue therefrom, or that 
the redoubted freebooter himself might 
spring upon him like a tiger. Neither of 
these, however, occurred; but a man on 
horseback was seen advancing slowly and 
cautiopsly on tho r> ad before him. This 
might bo he, or it might not, but Willie now 
recollected every particular mark given of 
the man with whom he expected to encoun¬ 
ter, and he was prepared for the most vig¬ 
ilant observation. As the horseman ad¬ 
vanced, Willie was fully convinced that he 
had met with bis man, and this was the 
critical moment, for hero was the identical 
highwayman. 
“Ilow now, old fellow?” exclaimed the 
robber; “what seek you in these parts?— 
Where are you bound for, with this mag¬ 
nificent equipage of yours?” 
“ Why, to tell you tho truth, I am e’en a 
puir honest man frae Scotland, gaen a wee 
bit farther south on business of some conse¬ 
quence, and I am glad I have met with a 
gentleman like you, and I would fain put 
myself under your protection in this dreary 
wood, as I am a stranger, and wadna like 
ony mischance to fcefa’, considering the er¬ 
rand I am on.” 
The robber eyed Willie with a sort of 
leer, thinking he had fallen in with a drivel¬ 
ing ohl fool, at whose expense he might 
amuse himself with impunity, and play a 
little on his simplicity. 
“What makes yoa afraid of this wood,” 
said the robber. 
“ Why, I was told it wa3 infested with 
highwaymen; and, to tell you the truth, as 
I take you to be an honest man and a gen¬ 
tleman, I hae something in this bag that I 
wadua like to lose, for twa reasons—baith 
because of its value, and because it was en¬ 
trusted to my care.” 
“ What have you got, pray, that you seem 
so anxious to preserve? 1 can’t conceive 
that anything of great value can be entrust¬ 
ed to your care. Why, I would not give a 
crown-piece, nor the half of it, for the whole 
equipage.” 
“That’s just the very thing. You see, I 
am not what I appear to be. I have ta’en 
this dress, and ibis auld, slovenly pony, for 
the purpose of avoiding suspicion in these 
precarious places. I have behind me a bag 
full of gpld—you may hear by the jingling 
of the pieces when I strike here with my 
hand. Now, I am entrusted with all this 
treasure, to convey it to a certain nobleman’s 
residence in the south; and I say again, 
that I am glad that I have met you, to con¬ 
duct me safely through the forest.” 
At this the robber was highly amused, 
and could scarcely believe that a simplicity 
so extreme, and bordering on insanity could 
exist; and yet there was an archness in the 
old man’s look, and a willincss in his manner 
that hardly comported with his external ap¬ 
pearance. Ho said he had gold with him 
—he affirmed that he was not exactly what 
he appeared to be—not so poor as his tat¬ 
tered garments would indicate, and withal 
trustworthy, having so large a sum com¬ 
mitted to his care. It might be, there was 
not a word of truth in his story; he might 
be some cunning adventurer from the bor¬ 
der, plying a certain avocation on his own 
account, not altogether of a reputable cast; 
but, whatever the case might he, the silly 
old man was completely in his power, and, 
if he had gold in his possession, it must be 
seized on, and no time was to be lost. 
“ I tell you," said the highwayman, 
wheeling his horse suddenly round in front 
of Willie’s pony—“ I tell you, old man, that 
I am that same robber of whom you seem 
to be afraid, and I demand an instant sur¬ 
render of your gold.” 
“ Hoot, toot!” exclaimed Willie, “gac vva, 
gae wa! You a robber! You are an hon¬ 
est man, and you only want to joke me.” 
« I tell you distinctly, that I am the rob¬ 
ber, and l hold you in my power.” 
“And I say as distinctly,”persisted Wil¬ 
lie, “ that you arc a true man. That face 
of yours is not a robber’s face—there’s no 
a bit o’ a robber about ye, and sae ye maun 
e’en guard me through the wood, and gi’o 
me the word o’ a leel-hearted Englishman 
that ye’ll no 6oe ony ill come ower me.” 
“ No humbug!” vociferated the highway¬ 
man, in real earnest; “dismount, and de¬ 
liver me that bag immediately, else I will 
make a riddle of your brainless skull in a 
trice.” 
Willie saw that it was in vain to parley, 
for the highwayman had his hand on the 
pommel of his pistol, and an unscrupulous 
act would lay him dead at his feet Now 
was the time for the wary Scot to put his 
plan into execution. All thing* had hap¬ 
pened as he wished, mid lie hoped the rest 
would follow. 
“Weel, weel,” said Willie, “since it 
maun be, it maun be. I shall dismount, 
and deliver you the treasure, for life is sweet 
—sweeter far than even gold to the miser. 
I wanted to act an honest part, hut, as we 
say on the north side of the border, ‘might 
makes right,” and sae, as I said, it e’en 
maun be.” 
Willie then, with some apparent difficulty, 
as an old, stiff-limbed man, lifted himself 
from the pony, and stood staggering on the 
ground. 
“ Now,” said Jie, laying his hand heavily 
on the money bag, “ I have a request or 
two to make, and all is yours. *When I re¬ 
turn to Scotland, I must have some marks 
about my person to show that I have been 
really robbed, and that I have not purloin¬ 
ed the gold to my own purposes. I will 
place my bonnet here on the side of the 
road, and you will shoot a ball througli it; 
and then, here is this old cloak—you must 
send another ball exactly through here, so 
that 1 can show, when I return, what a fray 
J have been in, and how narrowly I have 
escaped.” 
To this the robber consented, and, hav¬ 
ing alighted from his steed, made two de¬ 
cided perforations in tho way he was desired. 
This was with Willie a great point gained, 
for the robber’s pistols were now empty, 
and restored to their place. 
“I have yet another request,” said Wil¬ 
lie, “and then the matter will he completed. 
You must permit me to cut the straps 
that tie the b;»g to the saddle, and to throw 
it over this hedge, and then to go and Jilt it 
yourself, that I nrmy be able to swear that, 
in the struggle, I did what I could to con¬ 
ceal the money, and that you discovered 
the place where I had hid it, and then seiz¬ 
ed it, and thus I will stand acquitted in all 
points.” 
To this also the highwayman consented. 
Willie, accordingly, threw the heavy hag 
over the hedge,, and obsequiously offered 
to hold the robber’s high-spirited stood till 
he should return with the treasure. The 
bandit, suspecting nothing on the part of 
the drivelling old man, readily committed 
his horse to his care, while lie eagerly made 
his way through the hedge to secure the 
prize. In the meantime, however, Willie 
was no less agile; for, having thrown off his 
raggod and cumbersome cloak, he vaulted 
the steed of the highwayman with as much 
coolness :u? if he had been at his own door. 
When the robber had pushed his way back 
througli the hedge, dragging the bug with 
him, lie was confounded on seeing his sad¬ 
dle occupied by the simpleton whose gold 
he had so easily come by. Bnt he was no 
longer a simpleton—no longer a wayfaring 
man in beggar’s weeds—but a tall, buirdly 
man, arrayed in decent garb, and prepared 
to dispute his part with the best 
“ Wliat, ho! scoundrel! I)o you intend 
to run off with my horse? Dismount in¬ 
stantly, or I will blow out your brains!” 
“The better you may,” replied Willie, 
“ your pistols are empty, and your broad¬ 
sword is but a reed: advance a single step 
nearer, and I will send a whizzing ball thro’ 
your beating heart As to the bag, you 
can retain its contents, and sell the buttons 
for wlmt they will bring. In the meantime, 
farewell; and should you happen to visit my 
district across the border, 1 shall be happy 
to extend to you a true Scotch hospitality.” 
On this, Willie .applied spur and whip to 
the lleet steed, and in a few minutes was 
out of the wood, and entirely beyond the 
reach of the highwayman. When Willie 
had time to consider the matter, he found a 
valise behind he saddle, which, he had no 
doubt, was crammed with spoils of robbery: 
nor was he mistaken; for, on examination, 
it contained a great quantity of gold, and 
other precious articles. The highwayman, 
on opening Willie’s bag, found it filled with 
old buttons and other trash. Ilia indigna¬ 
tion knew no bounds; he swore, and voci¬ 
ferated, and stamped with his feet, but. all 
to no purpose; he had been outwitted by 
the wily Scot, and, artful as he himself was, 
he had met with one more artful still. 
The Scottish nobleman gained the bet, 
and the affair made a great noise for many 
a long year. Daring men of this descrip¬ 
tion were found in every part of the king¬ 
dom, frequenting the dark woods, the thick 
hedges, and the ruinous buildings by the 
wayside; and, what is remarkable, those 
desperadoes were conventionally hold in 
high repute, and were deemed heroes. In 
the time of Charles II., when the English 
thoroughfares were so infested with such 
adventurers, wc find that one Claude Du¬ 
val, a highwayman, while he was a terror 
to all men, wits at the same time a true gal¬ 
lant in the esteem of all tihe ladies. He 
was as popular and renowned as the great¬ 
est chieftains of his age; and, when he was 
at last apprehended, “ dames of high rank 
visited him in prison, and, with tears, inter¬ 
ceded for his life; and, after his execution, 
the corpse lay in state, with all the pomp 
of scutcheons, wax-lights, black hangings, 
and mutes.” The order of society in the 
times to which we refer, was vastly differ¬ 
ent from what it is now. Men’s habits and 
moral sentiments were then of the lowest 
grade, but, thanks to the clearer light and 
better teachings of Christianity, the condi¬ 
tion of all classes is vastly elevated. The 
Gospel has effected in the community infi¬ 
nitely more than all law and social regula¬ 
tions otherwise could have accomplished.

A War Anecdotic. — During the renown¬

you I am decidedly opposed to ‘organizing’ 
the army, as you eall it. Our fore-fathers

a drum and a fife, and come off fust-best

said tho lady. “So it is,” said the other. 
“ Certainly, then, you could not have given 
it my name.” “I know it” said the other, 
“but your name is Augusta, and I named 
my boy Augustus, which is so near it that 
I thought you would give me a new frock
