George de Vray might remain a pet of
society, and by means of Miles mon

this was not the same as being an earl,
with an enormous rentroll and inf1u-
ence over whole county. Old Moyle
limited as much to his daughter. and to
make the lesson more forcible, threw
out gloomy suggestions that his own
fortune was not very secure, and that
Millic might some day find herself con-
strained to live on her husbands three
hundred pounds year, and to make
her own dresses with the sewing-ma-
chine. The lamentable prospect caused
Miles tears to burst out afresh,

remark in Georges praise. Mr.. Moyle
also scolded his niece, and very round

she began to suspect that her precious
uncle was forming plan for making
of this former clerk of his sutton for

Her intuition was not at fault. Old
Moyle had FASTENED to make peace
with his discharged clerk; and the lat
ter, whose vanity was tickled by seeing
his quondam tyrant cringe before him,
gradually became a regular guest at
the bill discounter's though he took
care never to come at times when lie
was likely to meet Gertie Brown, who
could feel no admiration for the vulgar

of Ralph de Vray. This young man
was handsome, however, and not de-

Mile that he had aspired to win her

Thornburgh. Assistant Acjutant Genei al

inforce order among the Indians; also, that
Thornburg himself regarded the three COM
panies of cavalry and the one of Infantry, in
all 30 men, which he took, amply sufficient
for the expedition. Thornburg was cautioned
by telegram sent after he was well ON the way
TO advance with prudence, aud II
ne had reason to believe his
force insufficient to communicate with head
quarters and call for more. which he would re-
ceive. He was advised that the matter was
left entirely TO his dis cretion. On September
