Mr. St. George to-Lmly Temple. ‘°' To bury it in silence will be the best plan in every way,” said Mr. St. George. “ There is no other alternative, but the one of pm- ceeJings against them, and that is not con- venient.

Two or three hours The room was in an uproar the whole of the time: laughing, ta‘king, drinking, gambling, stupi-l fying, and sleeping. Some went in, some went out; and Lord Temple slept through it! “ She is not alone,” returned the earl. “ I sent to ask, and they said she was stopping for the night where she went to dinner.” “No I” uttered Lord Temple. . “Fact,” simmered the Earl. “ She 510p- ped because she did not expect you back.” agreed to resort thither,Lord San-'Hin was one, and he had carried his friend with him. “ I must go home, Sandlin.” hiccuped Lord Tempkz. “My wife is alone. I told you she (I be home egrly.” Lord Temple had some veryvslight sense left in him. and told Earl Sandliu’s groom, who then had the reins, to drive to his house. The earl whispered a contrary order, and the man of course obeyed his master. Lord Temple subsided into sleen; and, when he woke, he was stumbling up some stairs.â€" He soon saw, though imperfectly, where he w s: at the gaming house in St. James’s Street. Some half-dozen of the diners had It was Sir Robert Payn. He was suffering from illness, and took scarcely anything.â€" The rest drank 'deeply, deeply even for them. After dinner (because they had not taken enough,) they began upon cigars and punch and brandy, in short, upon anything that their hot throats fancied, and when the): started for London they were gloriously up- roarious, and terrified quiet dwellings as they pas-sect, with their noisy shouting. An all-important dinner was this dinner at the Star and Garter at Richmond, its aeticipa- ’ion having kept the partakers of it in town, longer than they would have otherwise re- mained. It was the settlement of a bet, which Lord Sandlin had lost to Sir Robert Payn. Of the twelve to assemble, one had been kept away by a death, and Lord Tern- ple was invxted to supply his place. They were all of the species denominated “fast,” and not one, but was a tolerably hard drink- er. Had Lord Temple been solicited to join these men in a midnight revel, he might now possibly have declined, from fear of con- tagion, but to refuse, on that score, the dining with them in open daylight; never entered his mind. It was a splendid feast, both as to wines and viands, and they all ate and drank well, save one, and that one was-mot Lord Tent_ple._ . -‘ -- A. much was piaced back to back with the others f they would go out with the first glimmer of and they drove away, the lords once moregthe dawn, and fight it out," S'ir RBbert Payu re);c:nn ikn§p kn§a On I “pl-c mnmnl.‘ I _ raising their hats to Eddy Temple.

Itlwas in my mind, on the way down, to look out for agypoliceman, and have you all taken into custody, You were a fool to get into this for that beggar Anketel. 'But you had no right to say what you did.” When the party had discussed the place of meeting ,some proposed one place, some an- other. One suggested Scotland; another, France; another, Chal k Farm. Finallv, Batter-sea Fields was decided on, Georg) Eden indicating a spot there “snnrr and safe. ” To Battersea Fields, therefore. Lord Sandlin drove, and found the others there before him. They had brought another surgeon. No time was lost; the aground was chosen ard mea- sured; and while Lord Sandlm and Mr. Eden was conferring together, Viscoz, nt Temple looked round at the assembled faces. Hie: eye rested on Sir Robert Pay’n sâ€"-on it’s se- vere expression, betraying discontent at the whole pro eedings. He went up to him, and drew him aside}: - No more was said ; at least by Lord Tem- ple. The surgeon came out, took his seat by the side ofthe servant, and kept up a running fire of conversation with Lord Sandiin, as they sat back to back. The ear} appeared to feel no more the awful nature of the errand they were bent on, than he would the going to a wedding: he was not of the feriing sort. What Lord Temple’s reflections were, we cannot tell: but certainly not pieasantones. “‘I “Payn, if I fa“, will you undertake to bleak it to my wife? You will render me that service?” “I afn as cold as charity,” explained Lord Te_n_1ple. “ The dawn is keen.” “ Dress yourself in a brace of shakes,. and come down and see.

Halloa, Moore! put that window up.” Accordingly the window qu_put up, and Accordifugly the window was put up, and the gray whiskers and the nightcap looked out. A little further, the earl pulled up? It was the place he spoke of. A loud alarum was sounded on the night bell, which brought forth a face in a nightcap at the second floor wmdow. V “ I know} {man who will do,” returned the ear], “ and we shali pass hxs rooms. He used to be attached to the -â€"â€"â€"â€"-â€"- regxmem.” ‘i We shan’t find vane at the hour,” cried Lord Temple, who was now three parts 30' bered. “ Don’t wait; let’s get it over.” It is probable that he would be glad to escape it now, for his wife’s sake; but no parsibili- If at: escape presented Itself; no alternative. Earl Sandlin had first of all, proceeded to his home, Lord Temple with him. There the former got his pistols, and each drank a cup of coflee, black with strength. The French call it cafe noi-r. As they were starting off in the dugâ€"cart, Lord Sandlin exclaimed that they must take a_ sqrgeon. It was carried out. W ith the gray break of early morning, they started: Lord Sandlin driving his friend, and somebody else driving Colonel Groves. Others followed in the rear; not many. Eager, frantic, as they had all been in urging it on, they were too wary to expose themselves to consequences, even as spectators. _ K “in,” he said, they had been put downed-V public Opinion.

But it may have seemed to the readers of Opposition journals that the Act repealing the Statute of Wm.

To such we commend the following facts. “I have never been m bed aii night,” she returned; “I have passed it watching, in the agony of susponse. Let me know the worst.

A slight accident has happened to Lord Temple 3 but you need not fear ” He hardly knew how to tell her; yet to‘ad she must be, for her wounded husband was even then on his road home. He got through the task pretty well; making light of it. A mere flesh wound, he said.

She went up to him ; she clasped his arm in her agony of suspense; her eager eyes were strained implmingly upon him, her pale lips drawn back. Sir Robert was grieved to see herâ€"lo witness her emotion : and heal? so saw that it was especially necessary he should be cautious not to alarm her morethan was_p_qssible. and a sinking heart. She had nevervseen Sir Robert Payn, and Sir Robert Payn had never seen her; but ceremcny, in these sterner hours 'of life, is forgonen. Isabel glanced at the glass. To smooth her hair and her cap was the work of an instant; and she shook out the finances of her black sill: dress, and went down with quivering lips “I am deeply soxry to disturb Lady Tem- pIe at thls hour, but have brOUght a message’ to _hex: {rpm Lord_ Temp}e_.” “K gentleman is below, my lady, and wishesnparlicuiarly to see you.

Full of consternation, then of alarm, she had wait- ed, hour after hour, for her husband’s return. Now, pacing the room with uneven steps; now, leaning from the window, looking out for him in vain ; now, giving way to all the terrors of imaginative fear. With the gray, dawn, just as they were starting on their sino, ful expedition, she dropped into a sleep in her bed-room, kneeling on the floor, her head resting on the sofa. The entrance of her maid aroused her, and she started up, alive with painful recollection.
