MR.

SCARBOROUGH'S THOUGHTS OF HIMSELF.
When Mr.Scarborough was left alone he did not go to sleep, as he had pretended, but lay there for an hour, thinking of his position and indulging to the full the feelings of anger which he now entertained toward his second son.

He had never, in truth, loved Augustus.

Augustus was very like his father in his capacity for organizing deceit, for plotting, and so contriving that his own will should be in opposition to the wills of all those around him.

But they were thoroughly unlike in the object to be attained.
