Tyrrell. Lascelles, who had been thoroughly educated, could also when he chose, converse well on literary topics ; while an intimate familiarity with classic authors, sometimes supplied timely information in learning, which the clergy- man had forgotten. Mr. Tyrrell heard also frequently, anecdotes of his lib- erality and kindness to the poor, all of which were strictly true ; for the young man, fond as he was of company and high living, had many redeeming traits ; and no one could ever suspect... him of a mean action. Nor was he dissolute in his habits ; his reputation among women was good ; he was even rather a favorite with them, although the repoi-t of his wealth may have had much to do with this kind opinion. Having gained access to the house, Mr. Lascelles was not long in making up his mind, that Lucy Tyrrell, of all the women he had ever seen, was the one, the only one worthy to preside over the destinies of his drawing-rooms, and drive in his carriage. Lascelles fell in love. He did not make himself miserable, because he thought he had only to offer his hand and fortune to any woman, and she would rejoice at the chance of securing him.
