The year passed sinco that event, had only served to strongmen tlie bond lormcd tinder such cir cumstances, and the young man.had already ventured to declare his hopes and desiics, Toby had no reasons-for opposing the in clinations of the young people. Without being rich, Edward carried by means of his brush and palette, enough to honorably maintain a family. His father, JMr. Weres- niiiii.iiuii ii i.imiiy. ins lamer, ir, veres- ford, an old city merchant, had ! retired wW an tmmenso fortune ; a rare example of re pealed succcssess in speculation, so rapid even, that very few persons had been ablo to ioiiow tlicir progress. Mr. Wcrcsiord being of a quick, stern disposition, lived iilono in the West of London, without troubling himself about his son, and leaving him to Shift for himself. He was one of those obliging'egotists, who troubled no one, ill order dot to be themselves trdublcd one of (lie most perfectly complaisant, provided nothing is asked of them. Edward then, had nothing to hinder his courtship of the fair Quakeress, knowing well that her fath er u'oiild not dnptise her iiiarriacc.
