NE gasons The young lady was all the
Y ore interested in the success ofthis little
Ioperation, from the fact that it was not the
result Of calculation as were the most OF
her maneuvres, but of real admiration
and esteem, rendered more piquant by
chagrin at the uncommon difficulty she
experienced in bringing the game to bay.
Poor old Sisyphus rolling his stone up
the hill, or the labors Of those immoral
but unfortunate young ladies, the Danai-
des, were nothing to it, for even if Georgi-
ana succeeded for an evening, in thawing
out this icy-hearted Adonis, the next
morning was sure to fnd him frozen up
again as heard as ever, so that | verify
believe she would have relinquished the
undertaking in. despair, had not species
of professional pride forbidden her to quit
the lists.
This was during the winters campaign,
that of the summer having proved much
more successful. For wether ii was ths
fog, or the bathing, or the promenades,
or simply the more extended working ol

She always looked and dressed we'll, fol
the first she couldn't help the last was
with her study, so that as some one said
Of her, 'there was meaning, in the very
folds of her handkerchief, and diplomacy
even in the rosettes Of her little slippers;
but on this particular occasion, she fan
cied that she had surpassed herself and
that Warren, Kennedy was regarding hel
with no ordinary admiration, when she
suddenly became concious that his CLAN
Ices, instead of being directed sideways a
Iher as they should have been, were fas
tened full on some object in a very differ
