off simpler, easier world, of a more quiet and faithful time.
-FOrty.SeUen ah me, since then, the world has changed from
an old respectable, staid, and proper world, to a radded old
harndan dancing the Cancan
There stood by the wears wife at the second c~ard-table,
pretending to look over her cards, but in reality drawing long
draughts oflove from the contemplation ofLucy CaIlum, young
and handsome fellow Ofsomc twenty years ofage. This was Tom
Bellamy, a distant relative and ward ofJohn Callum the brewer.
The entrance of the young men from the ballroom disturb
81 the whist-pIayers, and the game was suspended for a mo-
ment, as they passed through into the inner room.
Colonel POyser looked anxiously from under his bushy eye
brows, but none of his youngsters were of the party only Cap
tain Prodder and Major Bond, who could take care of them
selves. The Bays was a quiet, gentIemanly regiment, and old
Poyser was like a father to his youngsters, and kept them away
as far as he could from the temptations Of unlimited loo. Whist
the old man encouraged, and didn't nit what the points were,
but those gambling games be set his face against most steruIy.
Tom Benamy made a move as though to pass between the
red cur aims into the inner room. CaHum looked up over his
gold eyeglasses: No loo tonight, Tom
well, I'll just take a hand, uncle said Tom carelessly.
Old Calum was wonderfully fond of a little quiet gambling
himself and report said that at the private card-club at the
White Hart a thousand or two would sometimes change hands
on a single night report said also that the change had frequent
ly been unfavOurable to Mr.. Calum. His nephew therefore
, 1870-02-01

felt as though Satan were reproyins sin, when his uncle Qitular
he was only a distant cousin really admonished him for losing
twenty pounds or SO at loo.
But Lucy left her fathers side, and took Tom by the arms:
Dance this polka with me, Tom. I've refused haIfa-dozen TO
keep a dance for you, and then you've never asked me once
We'll, you know, said Tom, 1 amt much good at the polka
and as for asking you, there's been no getting near you all the
evening, for these soldier fellows
You see Tom, though tremendously in love, was but a
young cub. A l~onglegged young cornet here entered, and car
rled off Miss Canum. Tom had missed his chance, and was as
sulky as a bear. He walked into the next room. Some sweet
little cherub, however, sitting up aloft, had determined that
Tom should not drop his money that night. Young Winter,
a cool and cautious hand, who never continued playing when
the cards were against him, and who, having been twice looed
for five pounds, had resigned his seat, on the pretence Of going
to find a partner for tue Lancers-young Winter caught hold Of
Tom by tbs arm Come with me, Tom l have something to
say to you of importance
Archibald Winter was a few years older than his friend.
He was now a luoior partner in the firm of Winter, Boothby,
and Winter, Solicitors, of %goodPump Street. His female friends
called him ugly. He was Shorthand thick-set; his dark hair hung
down to the velvet collar of his coat a projecting forehead and
heavy brows Swallowed a pair Of keen and piercing eyes. He
was not progressing, but powerfulloobing Not popular
with the youth Of Barncote, be was reputed near, and a keen

from the general register Of the Island.
A slight peruSal of the contents of the
