Mr Harding has had another interview with his wife, but the reconciliation desired |by him has not taken place. He says he ; can plainly see death in her face, which is 1 pinched in appearance. Mrs Harding is ( now anxious that she should recover, and ! eavß if the Lord Bpareß her life she will j endeavour to procure a divorce from Har- ' ding, so that she can marry Johnson. The j unfortunate woman does not exprees regret | for the attempt Bhe made at self-destruc-I tion, and she strongly resents any uncomp limentary remarks made withitt her hear- | ing respecting Johnson. A visitor to the ! hospital said to an acquaintance in a whis- ! per, " Johnson is better from his wound ; I it waß only skin deep; he hadn't pluck to Ido more than scratch himself." The woman heard the remark, and , replied, " What'B that you say ? If you say that again I'll hate you."
