! A"u nave tedd, Ol course, she sad. yer early in the conversation. the article Oi moral SuaSion in the last number of ih Quarterly. Don't you think the writer ha made his case perfectly clear?'
 Now D:. Philips had not lOoked into any 'Qudrterly,' except $Ome medical Quarterly for the last five years, and hardly knew th' meaning of moral suaSiOn. lie was at honest, straight forward sort of man, an' could affect nothing. All that was Jeff him was to reply, wilh a slight blush, iha he had nOl read the article 10 which she al. luded.

 So much the more to be rcgrcttcd.- You q" not know what you have lost. Macau;ay is the most brilliant reviewer ot the day. His aiticlcs glitter in thoughts l'wcls with the hrilIiaDry m dinmnnis.

 AS Doctor Philips, who was peculiarly sensitive. K ,h,s matter good deal to heart, his friends enjoyed the thing much more thar they would have done, and an. moved him by constant nilu>ions 10 it, His usual answer was, that he would re- ,urn the favor one of these days with in te,c4i.'
 Only few weeks elapsed before hs was again thrown into company with Miss Gray. As eagerly as spider watches a fly did lte young lady watch her victim, and bounce upon him with almost as hearty . good will. Several who had ihemSelve, been ,ic,imized, gathered around, and o,h q memters of pretty large party swelie' 1 the circle and became eager listeners.
