For some weeks the engagement be tween the Earl of Beauvray and Miss MilHcent Moyle had been chronicled in the, fashionable intelligence of newspa pers, and the marriage was appointed to take place in July. . There were many who considered Miss Moyle a lucky girl, for Lord Beauvray was not only of an cient family, young, immensely wealthy and well; looking, but he was popular evetywhere, owing to hi" sunnytemper and uoriehtness oi character. ' Lord Beauvray had -been merry without being 'dissolute, fie was the most irreproach ableof gentlemen, just as his betrothed, Miss; Moyle, was the fairest flower among that bouquet of . pretty girls who had been presented at court in'; the same season as herself. Miillcent Moyle was a rich heiress as well as. a pretty girl; but' this was About all-that could be said of her. Her father, Josiah Moyle, a blU discounter ef Lombard street , was a' new man' ot thecity plutocracy. It was aaid that the peer's relatiVeaJiad been 'much scandalized on-hearing - of His Lordship's intention to marry the daughter of aman whose antecedents were just a little misty; a a AJ wc3 a saaa s w.vit himself, or become mad with conceit so foolish is he. .1 aay, Beauvray, if I throw this envelope into the fire, who will know anything about it?" ." I shall," answered Lord Beauvray, auietlv. and he held out his hand for the papers. The shifty glance of the money man quailed in the light of unquenchable honesty In that of one who happened to be a nobleman In something more than the name, i . , ' There was a pretty hubbub in society when it became known that the Earl ef Beauvray or George de Vray, aa be now simply called himself was going to abandon his titles and estates to a man who had been a city clerk. Of course George de Vray's marriage was postponed.. The turn la hla for tunes had thrown so much business on his hands that it was impossible he could devote a month to honeymooning until It was disposed of; besides whieh, he felt bound to make Mr. Moyle the oiler of releasing hla daughter from' the engagement. ,.At first this proposal was poohpoohed equally by tne Diii-ais-counter . and Miss Moyle '. herself.
