To his mother, however, he has sent no word of Mona, knowing only too well how the news of his approaching marriage with this "outer barbarian" (as she will certainly deem his darling) will be received. It is not cowardice that holds his pen, as, were all the world to kneel at his feet and implore him or bribe him to renounce his love, all such pleading and bribing would be in vain.

Do not dwell upon my sins; and say I died—happy. Let her too have a copy of the paper Dr. Bland has now." THE BULLS SOCIETY.
