But all that was not the question

But all that was not the question
now. Duplay sought the telegraph Of
fee and informed liver OF the uncom-
promising attitude of the enemy. He
added that Harry Tristram was in
the business, and that Harry suggest
ed an interview. 1t was perhaps the
most significant tribute that Harry
had received when, after few min
utes of surprise and a few more of
consideration, liver telegraphed that
he would come up to town, and wish
ed an appointment to be made for
him with Mr.. Tristram. 1t was some
thing to force Napoleon to come t,
the peninsula.

CHAPTER XIX.
In the Matter of Rlinkhannnton.

Pity for the commander, who, while
engaging the enemy on the front with
valor and success, breaking his line
and driving him from his position,
| finds himself assailcd in the rear by
an unexpected or despised foe, and
the prize of victory suddenly wrench
ed from him. His fate is more bitter
than if he had failed in his main en-
counter, his self-reproach more keen.
| Major Duplay was awakening to the
| fact that this was his situation. Tri-
umph was not his, although Harry
Tristram had fled from the battle.
JAMIE 1ver had begun to think fiirta-
tion wrong-and there was an alto
| gether new and remarkable self-as-
sertion about Bob Broadley. The last
thing annoyed Duplay most. 1t is in
| deed absurd that a young man, form
/ erly of commendable humility.
should think a change OF demeanor
| justified merely because one young
woman, herself insignificant chooses,
for reasons good or bad, to favor him.
! Duplay was driven back to the last
ditch of consolation-what we could
have done If the latest tried plaster
for the wound of what we cannot do;
it would be wise to try it sometimes
a little earlier.
