But when Borrow contrives to hear more of the old china collector and of Isopel also from the jockey, and shuffles about the postillion, Murtagh, the Man in Black, and Platitude, and introduces Sir John Bowring for punishment, he makes "The Romany Rye" much inferior to "Lavengro."

A man: Foreshortened; well, I should say so! But I say, you can't remember all these pictures. The other man: Let's get out of this! The guide, indicating a picture of the Grand Canal: This one has been restored. A girl's voice: Why, that's the house where we are staying! The guide: The next picture . . . The squad shuffles out of range.

On her twentieth day out she sailed due east. After the excitement of the wreck and the departure of the passengers, Shuffles and his confederates resumed their operations in the Chain League, assisted somewhat by a case of discipline which occurred at this time.

Shuffles consulted his discretion rather than his valor, now that the alarm had been given, and retreated towards the place where he had entered garden. "What's the matter, Harry?" asked Mr. Lowington, as he rushed over the bridge, followed by the gardener and his assistants, just as Harry was picking himself up and rubbing his head.

"Don't let us quarrel about it, my dear fellow," said Shuffles, in soft, insinuating tones. "By no means." "We will have a new election," suggested the chief.

"If you've got a good idea, it's worth your while," he said shortly.

Pitt was now again in power, and he endeavoured to make the public believe that he had assented to the wishes of the nation, by an union with Mr. Fox, whom he professed to have recommended to his Majesty to appoint one of the cabinet. This was one of Mr. Pitt's artful and hypocritical shuffles; he contrived that the King should object to the admission of Mr.

Shuffles had played with half a dozen boys the night before; Sanborn and Lynch had been engaged in the game since the first watch was set, and another party had been employed in the same manner in another room. All of the boys were supplied with money in considerable sums, generally in sovereigns and half sovereigns, for use when they reached Europe.

But we could only hope, rather than believe." "It was a heavy blow," said Shuffles. "It was fearful!" exclaimed the earl, with a shudder, as he thought of the anxiety and terror they had endured. "I owe you an everlasting debt of gratitude."
