"There now, it Un'i iny intention to cay a
wor.l to-night, Mr. Caudle. .No; I want to go
to sleep, it I can; lor after v,liat Ire g,,,,,,
throuph to-day, and w ith tin) lieadaelie. I've
got and if I haven't left my MnellinK-salU on
the mantel-piece, on thn right-han.! corner
just a yon go into the room noho.ly could
miss it I nay. noho.lv could miss it in it
tattle green bottle, im.l well, tlero you lie
itiKe a stone, ana I niiht perish an 1 you
wouldn't move. Oh, my joor head t Hut it
may open nmi until, ami what do you care I
"Yes, that's like your feeling j list. I want
my salts, and you tell me there's nothing like
leing still for the headache. Indeed I Hut
I'm not going to 1x3 still; po don't you think it.
That's just how a woman's put upon. Hut
I know your aggravation I know your art.
You think to keep mu quiet ahout that minx
Kitty your favorite, pir ! Upon my life, I'm
not to discharge my own servant without hut
3he shall go. If 1 had to do all the work my
lelf, she shouldn't stop under my roof. I can
jsoe how she looks down upon me. I can see
a great deal, Mr. Caudle, that I never choose
to open my lips about hut I can't shut my
eyes. 1'erhaps it would have heen Letter for
my pea-u of mind if I always could. lon't
say that. I'm not a foolish woman, anil
know very well what I'm saying. I suppose
you think I forget rAaf Rebecca I know it's
ten years ago that she lived with us but
what's that to do with it '! Thin sis ar'n't the
Jless true for being obi, 1 suppose. IS'o; and
your conduct, Mr. Caudle, at that time if it
waa a hundred years ago I should never for
get. What 1 I shall ulways be the same silly
fvoman ? I hope I shall 1 trust I shall always
liave my eyes about mo in my own house.
Now, don't think of going to sleep, Caudle;
because, as you've brought this up about that
Rebecca, you shall hear mo out. Well, I do
I wonder that you can name her 1 Eh t You
didn't mine her? That's nothing at all to do
with it; for I know just as well what you
think, as if you did. I suppose you'll say
that you didn't drink a glass of wine to her
Never f So you said at the time, but I've
thought of it for teu long years, and the more
; I've thought, the surer 1 am of it. And at
nai very time it you please to recollect at
liat very time little .lack was a baliv. I
shouldn't have so much cared but. for that:
ut he was hardly running alone, when you
loaded and drank a glass ot wine to that crea
ture. No; I'm not mad, and I'm not dreaming.
I saw how you did it and the hypocrisy made
t worse j and worse. I saw you: when the
reaturi was just behind my chair, you took
up a glass of wine, and saying to me, 'Mar
garet,' and then lifting up your eyes at the
)old minx, and saying, 'My dear,'" as if you
wanted me to believe that you spoke only to
ne, when I could see yon laugh at her behind
ue. And at that time little Jack wasn't on
is feet. What do yon say t Heaven fonjive
Pier m I Mr. caudle, it's von that ousht to
isk for that: I'm safe enoutrh. I am: it's vou
vho should ask to he forgiven.
JNo, 1 wouldn't slander a saint and I didn't
ake away the girl's character for nothing. I
Know she brought an action for what I said;
md 1 Know you had to pay damages lor what
you call my tongue I well remember all that.
nd serve you right; if you hadn't laughed at
ler, it wouldn t have happened. Hut it you
Ivill make free with such people, of course
you're sure to sutler for it. 'Twould have
erved you right it the lawyer s bill had been
flouLle. Damages, indeed ! Not that any
lody's tongue could have damaged her 1
"And now, Mr. Caudle, you're the same
rnan you were ten years ago. wnatr iou
one so? I he more shame tor you. At your
ime of life, with all your children growing up
ibout you to What am I talking off I know
.'ery well; and so would you, it you had auy
onscience, which you haven't. When 1 say
shall discharge Kitty, you say she's a very
;ood servant, and I sha'n't get a better. Hut
know why you think her good; you think
ler pretty, and that's enough for you; as if
lirls who worked for their bread have any
fmsiness to be pretty which she isn't. Pretty
ervants, indeed 1 going about with their fat
al faces, as if even the Hies would spoil 'em.
5ut I know what a bad man you are now, it's
io use your denying it; lor didn't l overhear
ou talking to Mr. i'rettyman, and man t you
ay that you couldn't bear to have ugly ser
vants about you 1 I ask you didn't you say
ihatf Perhaps you did ? You don't blush to
onfess it ? If youv principles, Mr. Caudle,
Ir'n't enough to make a woman's blood run
old!
"Oh yes ! you've talked that stuff again and
gain; and once I might have believed it; but
know a little more of you now. You like to
ee pretty servants, just as you like to see
retty statues, and pretty pictures, and pretty
lowers, and anything in Nature that's pretty,
ust, as you say, for the eye to feed upon.

THE THIRTY-THIRD LECTURE.
MRS. CAUDLE HAS DISCOVERED THAT CAUDLE IS A
RAILWAY DIRBCT0B.
"When I took up the paper to-day. Caudle,
you might have knocked me down with a
father! Now', don't be a hypocrite you
know what's the matter. Aud when you
jUvn't a Led to lie. upon, and are brought to
THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH. PHILADELPHIA, TUESDAY,
i sleep open eonl-sneks and then I can tell
' von, Mr. Can. lie, you may sleep by yourself
'then you'll know what's the matter. Now,
I've seen your name, and don't deny It. Yes
the Kel-l'ie-I-d.'in.l Railway and among the
I'ireitor, Job Caudle, Ks.p, of the Turtle
l'overy, and no, I won't be quiet. It isn't
oiten goodness knows I that I speak; but
peeing what I do, I won't be silent. What do
net W hy, there, Mr. Caudle, at the foot of
the bed, I see all the blessed children in tat
ters I see in in jail, and the carpets hung
out at the w indnw s.
"And now I know why you talk in your
sleep about a broad and narrow gauge ! I
couldn't think what was on your mind, but
now it's out. Ha! Mr. Caudle, there's some
thing about a broad and narrow way that I
wish you'd remember but you're turned
quite a heathen: yes, vou think of nothing but
money now. Ir'n't I I ilr mimiif To be sure
I do; but then 1 like it w hen I'm certain of it;
no lisks for me. Yes, it's all very well to talk
about fortunes made in no time: they're like
shirts made in mtime it's ten to one if they
hang long together.
"And now its plain enough why you can't
cat, or drink, or sleep, or do anything. All
your mind's allotted into railways; for you
sha'n't make me believe that K.d-l'io Island's
the only one. Oh. no ! I can see by the looks
of you. Why, in a little time, if you haven't
as many lines in your face as there are lines
laid dow n ! Kvery one of your features seems
cut up and all seem travelling from one
another, i-ix months ago, Caudle, you hadn't
a wrinkle; yes, you'd a cheek as smooth as
any china, and now your la -e is like the map
of Kngland.
"At your time of life, too! You. who were
for always going small and sure! You to
make heads-and-tails of your money in this
way! It's that stock-broker's dog at Plain
Cottage bo's bitten you, I'm sure of it.
You're not lit to manage your own property
now; and I should be only acting the part of a
good wife if I weie to call in the mad-doctors.
"Well, I shall never know rest any more
now. There won't bo a soul knock at the door
after this, that I sha'n't think it's the niau
coming to take possession. 'Twill be some
thing for the Chalkpits to laugh at when
we're sold up. I think I see 'em here, bid
ding for all our little articles of bigotry and
virtue, and what are you laughing at
'J ley's tint hi"lry and virtue; hut liijtu'i no and
reriu'f It's all the same: only you're never
so happy as w hen you're taking me up.
"It I can tell w hat's come to the world, I'm
a sinner! Pverybody 's for turning their
farthings into double sovereigns and cheating
their neighbors of the balance, And you, too
you're beside yourself. Caudle I'm sure of
it. I've watched you when you thought me
fast asleep. And then you've lain, and whis
pered and whispered, and then hugged your
self, and laughed at the bed-posts, as if you'd
seen 'em turned to sovereign gold. I do be
lieve that you sometimes think the patch-work
quilt is made of thousand-pound bank notes.
"Well, when we're brought to the Piiion,
then you'll iind out your mistake. Hut it
will be a poor satisfaction for me every night
to tell you of it. What, Mr. Caudle Tli.-y
won't lit me. till yon of it i And you call that
'some comfort '' And after the wile I've been
to you ! Hut now I recollect. I think I've
heard you praise the 1'nion before; though,
like a fond fool as I've always been, I never
once suspected the reason ot it.
"And now, of course, day and night, you'll
never be at home 1 No, you'll live and sleep
at Kol-Pio Island. I shall bo left alone with
nothing but my thoughts, thinking when
the broker will come, and you'll be with your
brother directors. I may toil to save six
pences, and you'll be throwing away hun
dreds. And then the expensive tastes you've
pot ! Nothing good enough for you, now.
I'm sure you sometimes think yourself King
Solomon. Hut that comes of making money
if, indeed, you have made any without earn
ing it. No, I don't talk nonsense; people ran
make money without earning it. And when
they do, why, it's like taking a lot of spirits
at one draught; it gets into their head, and
they don't know what they're about. And
you're in that state now, Mr. Caudle; I'm sure
of it, by the way of you. 1 here s a tipsmess
of the pocket as well of the stomach; and
you're in that condition at this very moment.
"JNot that 1 should so much mind that is.
if you hare, made money if youM stop at the
J'.el-1'ie line. Jiut 1 Know what these things
are: they're like treacle to Hies; when men are
well in 'em, they can't get out of 'em; or if
they do, it's often without a feather to lly
with. No; if you've really made money by
the Kel-l'ie lino, and will give it to mo to take
care of for the dear children, why perhaps.
love, I'll say no more of the matter. What !
Aonstim: f Yes, of course; 1 never ask you
for money, but that's the word.
"And now, catch you stopping at the Kel
Pie lino ! Oil ! no; I know your aggravating
spirit. In a day or two I shall see another
line llourish in the paper, with a proposal
for a branch from Kel-Pio Island to the Chel
sea Hun-house, (.iive you a mile of rail, and
I know you men you'll take a hundred.
"Well, if it didn't make me quiver to read
that stulf in the paper and you're name to
it ! Hut I suppose it was Mr. l'rettyman's
work, for his precious name's aui.ong 'em.
How you tell the people 'that eel-pies are
now become an essential element of civiliza
tion' I learnt all the words by heart, that I
might say 'cm to you; 'that the Kastorn popu
lation of London are cut oil' from the bless
ings of such a necessary; and that by means
of the projected line eel-pies will b. brought
home to the business and bosoms of Ratclilf
highway and the adjacent dependencies !'
Well, when you men lords of the creation,
as you call yourselves do get together to
make up a company, or any thing of the sort, is
there any story-hook can come up to you And
so you look solemnly in one another's faces,
and, never so much as moving the comers of
your mouths, pick one another's pockets.
No, I'm not using hard words, Mr. Caudle
but only the words that's proper.
"And this I hoist say whatever you've got,
I'm none the better for it. You never give
me any of your Pel-Pie shares. What do you
say f You'll ij'n-e me some 1 Not I I'll have
nothing to do with any wickedness of the
kind. If, like any other husband, you choose
to throw a heap of money into my lap what f
You'll think of ill Wht-n the Eel-1'iea io u 1
Then I know what they're worth they'll
never fetch a farthing."
"She was suddenly silent," writes Caudle,
"and I was sinking into sleep, when she
elbowed me, and cried, '(.'audio, do you think
they'll be up to-morrow V "
