Divine WILLIAMS,
always on the spot for any remarkable event, foresaw the happy day
when, in _Henry the Eighth_, Act v., So. 3, he wrote, "The great TOOLE
come!" May we venture to surmise that it will not be long ere we see
the announcement of our favourite comedian's appearance in an entirely
new and original farce entitled _Ici on Parle Francais_?

WHAT'S IN A NAME? (_From a Correspondent_).--Sir, I send you a cutting
from a communication of J. MORTIMER GRANVILLE's, to _The Lancet_, No.
3,527, p. 798. Which when found make a note of:--"_Instead of thallin
I use a Periodohydromethyloxychinolin, because that is better borne,
and seems to be more effective than the Tetrahydroparaquinasol_."
These two words would be a good penn'orth in a telegram. Yours,
EPIGRAMMATIST.

PREMIERE AND DERNIERE, OR SHORTEST RUN ON RECORD.
_Dramatic Author_ (_to very friendly critic_). Seen my new piece? eh?
_Premiere_ last night.
_Very friendly Critic_. Dear me! "One night only!" Hope they've got
something ready for this evening. [_Exit, chuckling._
