* Our contributor has informed us that some of his French poems (including,
we believe, this one) have lately been declined, with thanks, by the Revue des
Deux Mondes and other French periodicals. This may perhaps account for the
slightly bitter tone of his muse towards our lively neighbours,
t Se borer is not French—s'ennuyer is the correct expression.—Ed.

“ A LEG UP.”

The success of Signor Donato causes us to make tke following
suggestion to tke Opera Company Limited. Tkere is many a poor
disabled soldier wko, having been in bis younger days considered as one
armed, can now, alas ! only be looked upon as one-legged, and wko,
being unable either to enter tke body of Commissionnaires or Chelsea
Hospital, is, for tke space of three years, kept alive by tke sixpence-
a-day generosity of a grateful country. Now, could not these honest
fellows be utilised in a ballet to support Donato, and, wkat is more to
tke purpose, support themselves ? Come, Limited Company, just turn
tke matter over in your Limited Company’s mind. We would suggest
a marine subject for tke ballet. Call it “ The Limpets; oi', Go it, yt
Cripples.” The management might make a large fortune out of this
notion, and would only have to go to a little legstra expense.

A Tight Fit.—Intoxication.
