Not very long ?'S?? al?out two weeks sinee, I was standing at the " railroad depot, chatting with a fiioud, whom '' I had not seen in two years. It was a cor 'I dial meeting and we had a moat manv things to say to each other?old joke* were repeated and old times reverted to, 11 as they always are in these rare nu-et- l: i?gs. 1 Miring tin-. e.onveisation the man who had brought my hig'jfajje to the cars, stepped up to ine and handed me my ' chi'Ck, which I flipped into mv pocket with- 11 out as much as looking at it, and paying v him his tare, I turned hack to mv fiicttd l' again. The cms were underway before we shook hands, and I found it somewhat dif- ' flunk to ohl'tin a good seat. However, 1 '' did not ivgret thai much the first half hour, for memory was running hack over pleasant thus, and the warmth of mv !iieiid'> 1 manner clung to me. At the end of an hour I ft-11 ehillv, and " drew towaids the stove, where a voting ' man ut pel Imps (wont v-1 wo lie-towed a supercilious glance upon inv r<m<rh over- '' coat, an.1 another witli evident admiration upon his own, a tine broadcloth. Now I v don't protend to 1m; altogether free from 11 vanity; l>ut still I must confers that what I v have of that common ingredient certainly ' won't perini". itself to he packed away in a v trunk with a suit of clothes, it. ever so ' fine, ami like a great many otli'T people in this worhl of likes ami dislikes, I de- ! spise the vanity which (furs ail itself only in a line suit, just because it is not like my 1 own I suppose, an>l tlieic again 1 find my 11 .self like my neighbors. Now tiiis may sound egotistical, and it s is egotistical, too ; but it is nccessaay in this case. I had traveit.1 many miles on land and sea, and I had din-da <^real deai of linen, and had very little washed, for I was very anxious Vj lessen the di>i.anee ' tween myself and a well remembered lirehide, where I exported lo meet n?.? matter what [ anticipated ! that belongs to me 1 alone.

I ' ' How ditVii'iuL from my fci.stvr, Kate!' I , i said to myself. J nil then tl:c conductor, l whom I lia<l nailed my friend's attention to before the ears started as a ' real hand-1 ( some fellow,' came through tlie ears.

J YonngM'iimpwell glanced at the lady sig- ; nilicantly ; the lady glanced ba<dc again, I and a perceptible smile flitted u\ r the i'uce ; of each. > ' When we arrived at Iluddleburgh it was very cold. Upon going up to rcgi>ti r my J f name at the ollice ol the (irand 15u>h llo | 5 tel, I brushed against young Vrimpwell. : lie drew back as if he had just escaped touching a load, and gave me a look he . doubtless hoped would wither ine to th? spot i bull obstinately refused to bo with- j ercd, and so ho stepped back a second time ' and let me pass. 4 What name?* inquired the clerk, dipping his pen into the ink-bottle, and staling ino in the face deliberately ? 4 Sir ! * j Now thoro is not much in this little word j but if you had seen the effect it produced upon the dapper clerk, you would have 1 beon amused. ) 1 4 Just write it down, if you please; there, sir, you'll take the room in the Becond floor?in front, numbering twenty two, Bir.' I strode away like a lord, determined to make the whole house wait upon me. At , the breakfast table I found myself opposite to Mr. Prieopwell anJ the lady I had observed so particularly in the car.
