And, glory be to Science! they do; both come from Virginia. Virginia, then, is the Aryan Garden of Eden. Ah but, strangely enough, we do find one great branch of the race the Teutons unacquainted with the word potato.

"Luckily," observed the guard to me, "it was the hour of the general jail dinner, and we were alone; otherwise, I should infallibly have been discovered, as my tears fell faster than those of the Queen, for really hers seemed to be nearly exhausted: However," pursued he, "that D'ORLEANS did see the Queen, and that the Queen saw him, I am very sure.

He looked at his watch for the twentieth time in an hour and scowled at the drenched window-panes across the way. For some reason this exceedingly nice- looking young man was in a state of extreme nervousness, a condition which, luckily for him, he was able to keep within himself. And this was what Mrs.

"'Where will I find the time to make another apprenticeship? she would answer; 'and it is now too late. I feel that I am done for. It is not my fault, added the good creature, 'for I did not choose my employment. My father would have it so; luckily he can do without me. And then, you see, when one is dead, one cares for nothing, and has no fear of "slop wages."

On the hither side there had been no getting them to advance; on the farther there was no keeping them together, and they scattered everywhere.

True, this break in his life interfered with several cherished projects.

I must run and tell my aunt, and bless the fates and Lady Emily Greville, that Lady Cecilia did not come up in the middle of it. Luckily, she thinks I am gone, and knows nothing of my being with you; for my brother explained all this to me in his study, after we had left the saloon, and he desires me to say that his carriage shall be ready for you at your hour, at eight o'clock.

I offered him all I had in money to go on, but it was folly in me, because if I had had enough to tempt him and if he had yielded we should both have died. Luckily it was but a little sum.
