La cure de Framley

I returned from Greytown and the waters of the San Juan to St. Thomas, spending a few days at Aspinwall and Panama on my journey, as I have before explained; and on this occasion, that of my fourth visit to St. Thomas, I was happy enough to escape without any long stay there. My course now lay to the Bermudas, to which islands a steamer runs once a month from that disagreeable little depot of steam navigation. But as this boat is fitted to certain arrivals and despatches, not at St. Thomas, but at Halifax, and as we reached St. Thomas late on the night of the day on which she should have sailed, and as my missing that vessel would have entailed on me another month's sojourn, and that a summer month, among those islands, it may be imagined that I was rather lively on entering the harbour; - keenly lively to ascertain whether the 'Delta, ' such is the name of the Bermuda boat, was or was not gone on her mission.

Un amour de jeunesse

Aussit�t que Clara fut inform�e de la visite de son cousin, elle alla l'annoncer � son amie qui l'approuva sans r�serve. Sans doute, dit-elle, il vient voir s'il ne peut pas arranger les affaires en vous �pousant, et c'est ce qui pourrait arriver de plus heureux; � votre place je ne le laisserais pas partir avant de l'avoir vu � mes pieds, si toutefois les hommes se mettent encore dans cette posture suppliante, ce dont je doute. Clara prit fort mal la plaisanterie et y coupa court en quittant le cottage.Au jour d�sign�, Belton arriva dans un cabriolet lou� � Taunton. M. Amadroz avait affect� tout le jour la plus compl�te indiff�rence; mais, en entendant le bruit des roues, il quitta pr�cipitamment son fauteuil et s'avan�a dans le vestibule. Clara le suivit et se trouva sans savoir comment, �changeant des poign�es de main avec un grand gar�on large d'�paules, ayant de grands yeux gris brillants, le nez droit, la bouche grande, les dents presque trop parfaites, d'�pais cheveux bruns coup�s courts et de petits favoris lui venant � moiti� des joues. Clara n'avait jamais vu physionomie plus ouverte.

Anthony Trollope (1815 -  1882) was   one of the most successful, prolific and respected English novelists of the   Victorian era. Some of his best-loved works, collectively known as the   Chronicles of Barsetshire, revolve around the imaginary county of   Barsetshire. He also wrote perceptive novels on political, social, and gender   issues, and on other topical matters.

Let the reader be introduced to Lady Carbury, upon whose character and doings much will depend of whatever interest these pages may have, as she sits at her writing-table in her own room in her own house in Welbeck Street. Lady Carbury spent many hours at her desk, and wrote many letters, -wrote also very much beside letters. She spoke of herself in these days as a woman devoted to Literature, always spelling the word with a big L. Something of the nature of her devotion may be learned by the perusal of three letters which on this morning she had written with a quickly running hand. Lady Carbury was rapid in everything, and in nothing more rapid than in the writing of letters.
