from whose outward personal apear-
ance, demeanor, and tone of voice, one
would expect following deliveries and
a magnificence of belongings. But Mr..
Glascock had by no means been such Q
man. It had suited his taste to keep
these things in allegiance, and to place
his pride in the oaks and elms of his
Park rather than in any of those ap-
panages of grandeur which a man may
carry about with him. He could talk
of his breed of sheep on an occasion but
he never talked of his horses; and
though he knew his position and all its
glories as we'll as any nobleman In Eng.
land, he ives ever inclined to hang bsck
q little in going out of room, and to
himself as though he were q small per-
sonage in the world. Some perception
of all this came across Nora's mind as
she saw the equipage, and tried to re.
tect, at moments notice, whether the
case might have been different with her,
had Mr.. Glascock worn q little OF MS
tinsel outside when she first met nim.
Of course she told herself that, haa no
worn it all on the outside, and carried ~
ever so gracefully, it could have maue
no difference. -.
1t was very plain, however, that,
though Mr.. Glascock did not ike orignt
feathers for himself, he chose that his
wife should wear them. Nothing could
be prettier than the way in which Caro-
line Spaldipg, whom we first saw as she
was about to be stuck into the interior OF
the diligence at st. Michel, now filled
her carriage as Lady Peterborough. The
greeting between them was very affec-
tienate, and there was kiss in the car
risge, even though the two pretty hats,
perhaps, suffered something. I'VE are
80 glad to have you at last" said Lady
Peterborough. "Of course we are very
quiet; but you won't mind that" Nora
declared that no house could be too
quiet for her, and then said something
of the melancholy scene which she had
Just left. "Aud no time is fixed for your
own marriagef But of course it has not
been possible. And why shonld you be
in hurryf We quite understand that
this is to be your home till everything
has arranged ITSELF" There was drive
Of four or five miles before they reached
the park gates, and nothing could b.
Kinder or more friendly than was the
new peeress; bpt Nora told herself thai
there was 10 forgetting that her friend
was peeress. She would not be 80 i'll
conditioned as to suggest to herself that
her friend patronized her,-and, indeed,
had she done so, the suggestion woula
have been false, but she could not rid
herself of a certain sensation Of exter,
nal iuferiOrity, aud of feeling that the
superiority ought TO be on her side, as
ali this might have been hers,-oply
that she had not thought it worth her
while accept it. AS these ideas came
into her mind, she hated herself for en-
pertaining them; and yet come they
would. While she was talking about
Ter mbleuatic heefsteak with Hugh,
tai r,I nn"asH's-, 40 c"nre"'i'
.tnaI arN ,ta,r OF lite uOutd DO he q IT,
ner Juau that state in which an rmbl' =
matte beefsteak was of vital impert-
ance; but she could not brIng her MUD
To the same condition of unalloyed pur-
ity while sitting with Lady Peterbor
ough in Lord Peterborough's carriage.
Aud for her default in this respect she
hated herself.
This is the beginning of the Park" "
said her friend.
Aud where Is the house"
You can't sne tho house for ever so
far Yet; it is two miles off. There Is
about mile before you come to the
gates, and over a mile aftsrward. One
has sort of feeling when one is in that
one can't get QUIT is so big" In so
speaking, it was Lady Peterborough
special endeavor to state without
boast facts which were Indifferent, but
which must be stated.
