LAVENDER WEDDING-DAY. [contixump. | Before long, our friend had become a con- stant visitor at the Flathers mansion” If not precisely the amz de la maison, he was, at all ite, the ams of a portion of it; but Miss Juliana remained steru and inflexible—as cold as the ice that had been spilt over her white poult de soie dress, and far less easily melted, as the wretched condition of that dress too plainly testified ! * What am I to do?” said the unfortunate man to himself, as he was walk home one night from the residence of the family. “She knows I love her, and she doesn’t seem to care about it. She won't even speak to me. How the deuce am I to propose to her?” However. Captain Flathers was a good-na- tured sort of a captain: and. seeing the posi- tion of affairs, resolved to smooth the way as much as possible for his young friend. Laven- der was by no means a despicable parti. He had a good many hundred pounds a year of his own, and was a person to whom the happiness of Jaltiana could be the more safely entrusted, from the fact that she would be sure to look very carefully after that desideratum herself. He had no vices; nor had he any very remark- able virtues—unles« the mere absence of vice ean be considered one. The accomplishments on which he prided himself were waltzing, and the art of making himself generally agreeable to young ladies; but it is to be hoped that he possessed some others, of which he was un- conscious. However. he was the sort of man that a woman could walk out with without being positively ashamed of him; and he was eapable of paying 4 tolerably heavy milliner’s bill every year. What more could Juliana re- quire? As for Captain Flathers, he had long been meditating an extensive foreign tour, and thought he might as well see his daughter safely disposed of and “settled” before com- mencing it. Mr. Lavender was not a very dis- tinguished. nor even a very sensible man, but he was as good asa great many others, and Captain Flathers almost from the first moment nae “marked bim for his own.” + Wha it, Lavender?’ said the captain, as the destined son-in-law entered his room the morning after the meditative walk already mentioned. ‘++ anything weighing upon your mind? What has happened to you?" Miss Fiathers!"’ gasped Mr. Lavender. ~* What of her, my hey 2” continued the eap- tain. encouragingly. + [ love ber!” ove her? Of course you do—every one does.” And that beast Cavallini among them!” thought Lavender, but he said nothing. Pinding that the conversation, in spite of the interesting uature of the subject. was likely to come to an untimely end. unless he did some- thing for its support, the military and saga- s Flathers went straight to the point. and asked Lavender whether he was an aspirant for his daughter's hand. Lavender said he was. “Well, Lavender,” observed the Captain. * you are not handsome."’ Lavender bowed. ~ You have not a distinguished position in the world.” Mr. Lavender bowed again. ~« Nor are you what I call clever.” Mr. Lavender bowed to the ground. ~ Bat Lat eae sufficient income to main- tsin yourself and wife in a befitting manner without coming upon me for a farthing; and you warrant yourself free from vice ?”” { do” exclaimed Mr. Lavender, as if he were already at the altar.
