She read it, and her resolution was formed. After carefully resealing and delivering it to the servant, she went at once to Mr. Mandeville, and revealed Lady Emily's attachment to Falkland.
V. and VI. Hutcheson's relation to Politics and Theology requires no comment. MANDEVILLE was author of 'The Fable of the Bees; or, Private Vices, Public Benefits' . This work is a satire upon artificial society, having for its chief aim to expose the hollowness of the so-called dignity of human nature.
OUR NEXT DOOR. I always wondered where Mandeville got his historical facts. THE MISTRESS. Mandeville misrepresents himself in the woods. THE PARSON. Mandeville likes to show off well enough. I heard that he related to a woods' boy up there the whole of the Siege of Troy. The boy was very much interested, and said "there'd been a man up there that spring from Troy, looking up timber."
When Mr. Mandeville returned home in the evening, he found the maid in great trouble on account of Eveline's long continued absence, and he himself became alarmed on learning that she had not been seen since early in the forenoon. He knew that she often recreated in the grove, and, after finding her in no more likely place, he proceeded thither.
MANDEVILLE. You remember the great free-soil convention at Buffalo, in 1848, when Van Buren was nominated. All the world of hope and discontent went there, with its projects of reform. There seemed to be no doubt, among hundreds that attended it, that if they could get a resolution passed that bread should be buttered on both sides, it would be so buttered.
MANDEVILLE. He is a striking example of an author who is loved. Very likely the remembrance of his tribulations has still something to do with the tenderness felt for him. He supported no dignity and permitted a familiarity which indicated no self-appreciation of his real rank in the world of letters. I have heard that his acquaintances familiarly called him "Charley."
Black as his corrupt heart had become, he could not look unmoved upon that countenance, and behold the ravages made in a short hour by the pains of soul he had inflicted. "Are you sick, Mr. Mandeville?" was his first inquiry. "No, sir; but worse, much worse than sick." "Indeed! How is that?" "Eveline is gone!" "Gone?" "Yes, gone forever!"
I wish you could see how fast he can run, and how sensibly he can talk. "What a fine figure he has for his age!" said I to Mr. Mandeville the other day. I know that in writing to you, you will not be contented if I do not say a great deal about myself.
MANDEVILLE. Don't you think these novels fairly represent a social condition of unrest and upheaval? HERBERT. Very likely; and they help to create and spread abroad the discontent they describe. THE MISTRESS. Or men.
Returning to Badsworth Hall they found no further news awaiting them than they had themselves been able to obtain. Sir Morton's fussy enquiries had brought no result Miss Tabitha had scoured the neighbourhood in her high dogcart, calling on the Ittlethwaites and Mandeville Porehams, all in vain. Nobody knew anything. Nobody had heard anything.
