The other was a great big Ipaseuline-looking female, with an awful eye, a hooked nose, and a blue gingham umbrella. Her general make-up would have con vinced the most careless student of human nature that she wastin' law ful rule* <jf the unhappy being who sat boeide her. This good lad\ had pricked up her ears wdien the word ’BUT first fell upon them, and by the time she lmd heard it repeated two or three times she had worked herself up to a very excited state of mind, which speedily found vent in the following trade : •] ay, Jo-iuh, do you hear that?
