TO THE EDITOR OF TILE NORTHERN TIMES

Dear Sir,—l am willing to bet ten guineas that no Photographer
in town can produce a more correct "group" than the following
speaking likeness, dug from the pages of " Ingoidsby Legends"
-vide Dead Drummer)—only two or three words altered. I
think it would make a good companion piece to the Butterman's
present advertisement descriptive of " the" place. I'm certain
Kelly will give it a turn if his regulations permit, and. I remain,
dear sir, yours as usual, THOMAS INOOLOSBY.
Tapington, January 13, 1859.

PHOTOGRAPHY.
A couple of travellers *•a * * ***a a
Were making their way ;
Their profession, you'd say,
At a single glance, did not admit of a query ;
The smart cap, white apron, and smooth face, worn then—
With scarce an exception, by all Edward's men ;
Blue jacket, loose trousers " bows'd up together"—all
Guiltless of braces, as those of Charles Wetherall ;
The Pigeon-toed step, and the rollicking motion,
Caused them to resemble two sons of the ocean.
The cove in advance was sturdy and strong,
With arms unconunonly bony and long;
Then his Guernsey shirt
Showed not one speck of dirt;
That—these men would think inconvenient and wrong.
He was -very broad-breasted,
And very deep-chested;
And his muscular frame correspond with the rest did,
Except as to height, for he could not be more
At the most, you would say, than sbme five feet four,
And if measured, perhaps had been found a thought lower.
Dame Nature in fact, whom some person or other,
—A poet - has called a " capricious step-mother,"
You saw when beside him,
Had something denied him
In longitude what she had granted in lattitude,
A trifling defect,
You'd the sooner detect,
'Cause he never contracted a stoop in his attitude.
Square built and broad-shouldered, good-humoured and gay,
With his collar and countenance open as day,
The litter— ('twas marked with four eyes by the way)—
Had a sort of expression goodwill to bespeak;
He'd a smile in his eye, and a "quid"* in his cheek !
And, in short, notwithstanding his failui e in height,
He was just such a man as you'd say, a first sight,
You would much rather dine, or shake hands with, than flight.
I iThe other (his much-esteemed foreman) was taller,
By four or five inches at least, than the smaller.
From his air and his mien,
It was plain to be seen,
That he was, or had been,
A something between
The real " Jack Tar" and the " Jolly Marine."
For though he would give an occasional hitch,
' Sailor like, to his " breex," there was something the which,
On the whole,, savour'd more of lump butter than pitch.
You will probably now wish their two names to know,
The first is—" the" Kelly, the second is Joe.

THOMAS INMAN, M.D.,
Lecturer on Medicine, Liverpool Royal Infirmary School of
Medicine, &c.
" Dr. Inman argues with such force and clearness, that we should
be surprised, if he does not gain many adherents, and do more ,
undermine the stronghold of hysteria and spinal irritation than ant
previous writer
"Spinal Irritation is merely the call to excite the attention of the
passer by ; the whole tenour of the book is to show that such a
thing has no existence.

" We cannot, however, part from him without cordially acknoir
ledging the high merit of the work before us ; the lucid and scieft:
tific manner in which the various topics are handled, nor without
especially adverting to the evidence that pervades the whole, that
it is written by a sound practitioner and a thorough enlighielu—
