V , said yesterday, at a dinner party, where I was present, that Lord Dawton had promised him the Borough of . Now you know, my dear Henry, that was the very borough he promised to you: you must see further into this; Lord Dawton, is a good sort of man enough, but refused once to fight a duel; therefore, if he has disregarded his honour in one instance, he may do so in another: at all events, you have no time to lose.

"Yes; it is not yet publicly announced, but it is fully known amongst us, who comes in, and who stays out. I am to have the place of ." "I congratulate your lordship from my heart. What post do you design for me?" Lord Dawton changed countenance.

In this expectation I begin to believe I shall be deceived." "You will!" answered Lady Roseville. "Bend your head lower the walls have ears.
