bring temporary smiles to your fare, but
it will leave great shadows III your heart.
1 lon't think that I would advis you to

you imagine you love him. A rcliued,

never unite yourself to any one who is
not a man in the truest meaning of the

because everyone believed there would
lie extraordinary excitement.
1 wont to Mi. Waller, the American
Consul, and secured a letter to Mr.

to the 1 arhament lnuiM' to tind a great
crowd of prominent and distinguished
people endeavoring to gain abnission.
l'he difficulty, I soon discovered, was to
have the three or lour lines of policemen
give any attention to ihe loiters carried
bv per-ons who presented them. I no
ticed, however, that menseiigers and tele
