Young
Lord
Varinas
was
smoking
an
immense
Meerschaum
pipe
,
while
Captain
Hugues
was
employed
with
a
cigar
:
that
violent
little
devil
Tandyman
,
with
his
little
bull-terrier
between
his
legs
,
was
tossing
for
shillings
with
all
his
might
(
that
fellow
was
always
at
some
game
or
other
)
against
Captain
Deuceace
;
and
Mac
and
Rawdon
walked
off
to
the
Club
,
neither
,
of
course
,
having
given
any
hint
of
the
business
which
was
occupying
their
minds
.
Both
,
on
the
other
hand
,
had
joined
pretty
gaily
in
the
conversation
,
for
why
should
they
interrupt
it
?
Feasting
,
drinking
,
ribaldry
,
laughter
,
go
on
alongside
of
all
sorts
of
other
occupations
in
Vanity
Fair
--
the
crowds
were
pouring
out
of
church
as
Rawdon
and
his
friend
passed
down
St.
James
's
Street
and
entered
into
their
Club
.
The
old
bucks
and
habitues
,
who
ordinarily
stand
gaping
and
grinning
out
of
the
great
front
window
of
the
Club
,
had
not
arrived
at
their
posts
as
yet
--
the
newspaper-room
was
almost
empty
.
One
man
was
present
whom
Rawdon
did
not
know
;
another
to
whom
he
owed
a
little
score
for
whist
,
and
whom
,
in
consequence
,
he
did
not
care
to
meet
;
a
third
was
reading
the
Royalist
(
a
periodical
famous
for
its
scandal
and
its
attachment
to
Church
and
King
)
Sunday
paper
at
the
table
,
and
looking
up
at
Crawley
with
some
interest
,
said
,
"
Crawley
,
I
congratulate
you
.
"
"
What
do
you
mean
?
"
said
the
Colonel
.
"
It
's
in
the
Observer
and
the
Royalist
too
,
"
said
Mr.
Smith
.
"
What
?
"
Rawdon
cried
,
turning
very
red
.
He
thought
that
the
affair
with
Lord
Steyne
was
already
in
the
public
prints
.
Smith
looked
up
wondering
and
smiling
at
the
agitation
which
the
Colonel
exhibited
as
he
took
up
the
paper
and
,
trembling
,
began
to
read
.
Mr.
Smith
and
Mr.
Brown
(
the
gentleman
with
.
whom
Rawdon
had
the
outstanding
whist
account
)
had
been
talking
about
the
Colonel
just
before
he
came
in
.
"
It
is
come
just
in
the
nick
of
time
,
"
said
Smith
.
"
I
suppose
Crawley
had
not
a
shilling
in
the
world
.
"
"
It
's
a
wind
that
blows
everybody
good
,
"
Mr.
Brown
said
.
"
He
ca
n't
go
away
without
paying
me
a
pony
he
owes
me
.
"
"
What
's
the
salary
?
"
asked
Smith
.
