MADAM,--After her six years' residence at the Mall, I have the honour and happiness of presenting Miss Amelia Sedley to her parents, as a young lady not unworthy to occupy a fitting position in their polished and refined circle.
In the principles of religion and morality, Miss Sedley will be found worthy of an establishment which has been honoured by the presence of THE GREAT LEXICOGRAPHER, and the patronage of the admirable Mrs.
Now, a proud usher in a Yorkshire school was such a very extraordinary and unaccountable thing to hear of,--any usher at all being a novelty; but a proud one, a being of whose existence the wildest imagination could never have dreamed--that Miss Squeers, who seldom troubled herself with scholastic matters, inquired with much curiosity who this Knuckleboy was, that gave himself such airs.
'Never mind that, father,' said Miss Squeers, as the head of the family was about to reply.
"You are aware that you have broken the rules," said Miss Wilson quietly.
Miss Wylie unexpectedly treated this as a smart repartee instead of a rebuke.

When he was introduced he understood why, for Miss Honeychurch, disjoined from her music stool, was only a young lady with a quantity of dark hair and a very pretty, pale, undeveloped face.
Mr Swiveller's conduct in respect to Miss Sophy having been of that vague and dilitory kind which is usuaully looked upon as betokening no fixed matrimonial intentions, the young lady herself began in course of time to deem it highly desirable, that it should be brought to an issue one way or other.
"Well, you both look sort of kerflummexed," said Miss Cornelia, with a twinkle in her eyes.
THE Mouse watches Miss Moppet from the top of the cupboard.
Miss Jethro passed over the question, as if she had not heard it.
"You have no idea, Miss Pink, how fat people suffer in hot weather," said the old lady, using her fan vigorously.
'I am the law here, my man,' returned Miss Abbey, 'and I'll soon convince you of that, if you doubt it at all.'
