" OU must console '.ur•se1f,� my ,;yid

Of Mrs. Pocklington's last dinner- A

"Don't be a humbug, George. Go 4�
and see Mrs. Pocklington, and, for hea.- '

It was Mr. Bludwell's practice '
11
to inveigle people into long gos- :11`';
sips, andtht;u abuse them for ,s..
wasting leis time ; so George was i
not disquieted by the reproach, • '`,;
But he took the advice, and called in
Grosvenor Srtu;tre, He found Mrs. ?e
PocklinKcon in, but she, was not alone.
Her vt,Lor was a very famous person,
hitherto known to George only by re- ivu
pute,-the Marquis of Mapledurham.s
fbe, Marquis was well known on the
turf and alsoas patron of art, butitl$
is mwessary to add t h'at more was o+u
known of him than was known to his %
advantage. In fact, he gave many, •hl
people
the Opportunity i
ty of saying they �'
would not count him among their ac- I
quaintanees; and he gave very few ofI ,+
thein the chance of breaking their
word. He and Mrs, Po. klington am- '
used one another, and, whatever he
did, he never said anything that was
,"i
1�
open to complaint. ,�d1,
For some (ime George talked to
Laura. Laura, having once come over 11
Ali
to his side, was full of a convert's zeal. ,1p1
and poured abundant oil and wine in- y�•
to his wounds,
" How could I ever have looked at
I.tiabel Bourne when she was there?" z
he, 1)F,gan to think.
"Mr. Neston," said Mrs. Po:klington. 1. I
"Lord Mapledurham wants to know,
whetheryou are the Mr. Neston"
"Mrs Pocklington has betrayed me,
Mr. Neston," said the Marquis.
"I am one of the two Mr. Nasions, I
suppose," said Geoege, smiling " ', Ir
Mr. George Neston ?" ked th'a
Marquis.
Yes." ;
"And you let him come here, Mrs, 11
;�;
Pocklington ?"
11 Ah, you know my house is a cara-
vanserai. I heard you remark it your- 3
self the other day," ,»;
I shall go," said the Marquis, ris- t
iv " And, Mrs. Pocklington, I shall 1
-content if you say nothing worse _41
t
of my house. Good-bye, Miss Laura.
Mr. Neston, 1 shall have a small party; y
of b:tchelors to -morrow, It wi l be very, ., .;
kind if you will join us. Dinner at r
eight,".11
See what it is to be an abused man," ,
said Mrs. Pocklington, laughing.11
"In these days the wicked must 't
stand shoulder to shoulder," said the
Marquis. -
George accepted; in truth, he was
rather flattered. And Mrs. Pockling-
ton went away for quite a quarter of ra
an hour. So that, altogether, he re-
turned to t h opinion that life is worth
living, before he left the house.

NEVER SEES PARLIAMENT.
It is a curious circumstance that the .I
Queen has never seen her "faithful Com- `1'

mons" in session. She is denied a fi
spectacle that may be witnessed by the ;
humblest of her subjects. It can handll •�
be said with truth in these times that '
the presence of the sovereign in the Ta
house of Commoas would influence de -
irate. Neither does the 011ier old con-
stitutioual theory that the presence of
the sovereign would lie a violation of 4,'
