"My door Mr. Newland, you must accept my apology; but it IS so long since we met, and I did not eXpect to see you again:" "I thought, my lord, that Mr. Mastorton had informed yob of what had taken place."

"I have, my lord, at last succeeded in finding out the object of may mad search, as you were t euly pleased to cell it, in the Honorable Oeneral Do Benyon, lately arrived from the East Indies." "Whore his services tirb well known," added his lordship. "Mr. Do Bonyon, I nongratulato you with all my heart. Wheh you refused my offers ofessistanco; and left us all in that mad way, I certainly despaired of ever seeing yoU again. I am glad that you reappear under such fortunate auspices. Has your father any family?" "None, my lord, but myself; and my mother died in the East Indies." , "Then I presume,from what I know at the board of control, that you may how safely be introduced as a young gentleman of largefortune;.allow me at least to assirt your father, in placing you in your proper sphere in society.

"Do not I prove that lam not ungrateful. Japhot, since to do credit to thy carriagd, I am content to depart from the rulesofour porstnislon?" said Susannah, smiling. "I feel the kindness and the sacrifice you are making to please me, Susannah," replied I; "but let us lose no time." I lisnded her down to the Carriage, and we drove to the Park. It was a beautiful day, and the Park was filled with pedestrians as well us carriages. Susannah was much astonished,us well as pleased "Now, Susannah," said I, "if you wore to call this Vanity Fair, you would not be far wrong; but still, recollect that even all this is productive of much good. Reflect how many industrious people find employment and proOsion for their families by the building of these Ray vehicles, their painting and ornamenting. How many are employed at the loom, and at the needle, in making those gay dresses. This vanity is the cause of wealth riot being hoarded,but finding its way through various channels, so as to produce comfort and happiness to thousands."

During the time that I lived at Reading, I will candidly state to you that I met With many who called themselves of the persua „aim), who worn wholly unworthy of it, hut they rnado imp in outward appearance and hypocrisy, What they wanted in their conduct towards their fellow creatures. Believe me, Susannah, there aro pious and good, charitable and humane, con scientious, and strictly honorable people among those who now pass before your view in such gay procession; but society requires that the rich should spend their money in superfluities, that the poor may ho supported. Be not deceived, therefore, in future, by the outward garments, which midi nothing.” "You have induced mo much to alter my opin ions already,laplint; so has that pleasant friend of thine, Mr. Masterton,who has twice called since ivo het've boon In Landon; but is it not time that we should retrum?"

Yon than corrected me, when I was wrong; I now point out to you where you are not rightly informed: but, Susannah,what you have learnt of mo is as nought compared with the valuable precepts which I gained from your lips—precepts which, I trust, no collision with the world will over rnako mo forget."

After this avowal, for a minute, which appeared but a few seconds, we were in each other's arms, when Susannah disengaged herself. "Dearest Japhot, thy father will be much dia. pleased." 'I cannot help it," replied I; "I shall submit to his displeasure." "Nay, hut Japhet, why risk thy father's wrath 7" "Well, then," replied I, attempting to reach her lips, "I will go." "Nay, nay—indeed, Japhet, you exact too much —it is not seemly." "Then I won't go." "Recoiled( about thy father." "It is yeti who detain roe, Susannah."
