So, putting the two articles of luxury and consumption together, it is rather ahead of Banbury with its cakes. On Monday, August 11th, I resumed my walk northward, and passed through a very highly cultivated and interesting section. About the middle of the afternoon, I reached Broughton Hill, and looked off upon the most beautiful and magnificent landscape I have yet seen in England.

He had determined not to talk about herself if the subject could be in any way avoided; but now he felt that he was driven up into a corner; now he was forced to speak to her of her own personality. "You have no experience yet as to that. How can you say what age will do?" "Age does not go by years," said Mrs Dobbs Broughton. "We all know that.

He was, therefore, prepared to stop Broughton on the stairs, and to use some force in arresting him on his way, should he find the man to be really intoxicated. But he had not descended above a stair or two before he was aware that the man below him, whose step had been heard in the hall, was not intoxicated, and that he was not Dobbs Broughton. It was Mr Musselboro.

"That is the friend, I suppose, of whom I have heard from Maria." It is to be feared that Conway Dalrymple had not been so guarded as he should have been in some of his conversations with Mrs Dobbs Broughton, and that a word or two had escaped from him as to the love of John Eames for Lily Dale.

"And how little you care about her, too," said Mrs Broughton.

I'll drink sherry." "Don't like it!" said Dobbs Broughton. "It's strange, isn't it? But I don't." "I thought you particularly told me to drink his claret?" said Johnny to his friend afterwards. "So I did," said Conway; "and wonderfully good wine it is. But I make it a rule never to eat or drink anything in a man's house when he praises himself and tells me the price of it."

If mamma does not want to be deceived, she ought not to treat me like a child. Of course she'll find it out sooner or later; but I don't care about that."

John Cam Hobhouse, afterwards Lord Broughton, Lord Byron's friend and fellow-traveller, now Sir Francis Burdett's colleague in the representation of Westminster as successor to Lord Cochrane.
