a beautiful new cottage, a young mail, ]
wealthy talented ami handsome. and though i
<iot a general favorite yet with Mm. \V. and ,

young man. Since Ilellfti Stevens hail (

qtieutlv met with Mr. Wallace, fmd though
the idea had never suggested itself to the j |
young man before, thern was of late, some- j
thing within, gently bidding him to pay a I
visit to the General, and hi* excellent faini
