Young evolved some of his "Night Thoughts" while on a visit with Voltaire at Bubb Dodington's. A call on the Duchess of Marlborough led to a dinner at Lord Chesterfield's. Next he met Queen Caroline and assured her that she spoke French like a Parisian. King George the Second quite liked Voltaire, because Voltaire quite liked Lady Sandon, his mistress.

Since his uncle died, and that money came to him, he doesn't care a straw how things go. He was copyist to the cathedral, and he gave that up last week. I have asked Sandon, the lay-clerk, if he will take the copying, but he declines. He is another lazy one." The organist hurried off. Arthur strove to detain him for another word or two, but it was of no use. So he continued his way to Mr.

Sandon had fallen into the general and delusive mistake of those who err, in supposing himself unfortunate rather than criminal.

His slave Sandon, whom I know, told me that they were going to Naukratis, and would visit the Greek woman whom they call Rhodopis." "He spoke truly." "Then you must speed to the rescue. At the time that the market-place was full." "When the market-place begins to fill, when it is full, when it becomes empty."

STAFFORD TO CREWE. On leaving Stafford for Crewe we pass on the right Ingestrie Park, the seat of the Earl of Talbot; the ruins of Chartley Castle, the property of Earl Ferrers, the defendant in the action brought by Miss Smith for breach of promise of marriage; and Sandon Park, the seat of the Earl of Harrowby, who for many years, before succeeding his father, represented Liverpool in the House of Commons as Lord Sandon.

Kear down from the foretop, and Burke and Sandon proceeded to tie a rope round his waist, which they afterward fastened to the fore- stay; then, in a way which provoked shouts of laughter from their mates, they gave the unfortunate man a shove, and sent him rolling down like a bundle of dirty clothes on to the forecastle. I was quite mistaken as to his object. Mr.

He says that in August last a relation of Madame Sefton's was here, in Riversborough; and told him who he was, in his shop, where he bought one of Felicita's books. Why didn't Sandon come here at once and tell us then, so that you could have found him out, Phebe? You and Felix and Hilda were here. He was a poor man, and seemed badly off; and I guess he came to inquire after Madame.

At first the sailors took no notice of his request, but on his repeating it with the promise of paying them handsomely for their services, two of them, Burke and Sandon, swung themselves along the netting into the shrouds, and were soon at his side. A long discussion ensued. The men evidently were ask- ing more than Mr.

"Then take him, of God's name; and may your laws be more merciful to the wretch than he has been to himself, or to his kin." Mr. Sandon shrieked, and he threw himself abjectly on his knees between the two captains, grasping the legs of both. "Oh! hear me! hear me!" he exclaimed in a tone of anguish. "I have given up the money, I will give it all up! all to the last shilling, if you will let me go!

"In Birchester, Craven Street, Sandon terrace the corner house in Sandon Terrace." "Craven Street. Really!"
