Dickens.

Several raw characters- .ire intseduced in the new
number of Bleak I-louse—many of them decided
originals." As intimate associates of our old trieed
Mr. Guppy, precedence must, of course, be given to
young Smallweed, sometimes called Chick Weed,
"as it were jocularly to express a fledgling," and
some t meg (metaphorically) Small, but on his own
hearth Bart, from his Christian name Bartholoisnea—
aud Mr. Jobling, owner of some very fashionable
whiskers, which latter gentleman, by the way, be-
comes the successor of pour Nerno in the occupancy of
the room at Krook's, the Lord Chancellor's. An en .
tertainment given by Mr. Guppy to these associates
is the source of much amusement. It takes place at
an eating-house where Small, or Chick as we may
call him at pleasure, reveals his " elfin power " in
" knowing all about it, whatever it is "—giving " an
unearthly cock of his venerable eye" when ordering
the repast from the " bouncing young female of
forty " who acts as waitress. The effect of the
banquet upon Mr. Jobliug is described with delight-
ful humour—that personage not consenting to con-
fess that he is " a man again " in consequence of the
nutriment administered to him in his apparent state
of inanition, until the dinner has very nearly reached
its conclusion. He acknowledges himself to be "just
born" after the first plateful, to be rapidly " growing
up" during the consumption of the second, to be " in
his teens" when the marrow puddings are about to
be introduced, to be " coning of age" on the ap-
proach of the three Cheshites, and to have arrived at
maturity while the glasses of rum are in preparation.
William Guppy with his blighted affections, Tony
Jobling with his manly vshisliers and his bat with a
rim peculiarly glistening, " as if it had been a favou-
rite snail-promenade," and Bartholomew Smallweed,
whose father is reported to have been John
Doe and his mother the only female
member of the family of Richard Roe
(venerable names recently erased from among the
number of our legal fictions by order of the Imperial
Legislature)—promise to aid very amusingly, though
in a subordinate capacity, in the development of the
plot of the narrative. The last chapter in the number
just issued, tends very materiallyiito aid in the unra-
velment of that same plot—already, it must be con-
fessed, sufficiently intricate and mysterious. But
before this chapter is reached we are introduced, by
another, to the family of the Smallweeds—Judy, the
sister of Bart, together with the grandfather and
grandmother of those interesting orphans—the grand-
mother in her dotage, and the grandfather (by reason
of his rascally tales of usury) decidedly in what Mr.
Rogers once:facetiously termed his " twee- dotage."
Employed as the busy char WOMtill of the Smallweed:,
we meet once more with dear little Charley. And
here again we are introduced to another new cha-
racter, in the person of Mr. George, a visitor, or
rather an apparent victim of the old money lending
Grandfather Smallweed. Mr. George, who promises
to improve upon acquaintance, turns out to, be the
proprietor of "George's Shooting Gallery," near
the Haymarket, where a queer little fellow named
Phil acts as his factotum. It may be objected, in
reference to the family of the Smallweeds, by the
more captious, that the manner in which the cushion
is hurled at the grandmother by the grandfather is,
to say the least of it, somewhat preposterous. But,
at any rate, if an extravagance, it is at least one in
the highest degree ludicrous, and therefore, we sub-
mit, pardonable—reducing the assailant, upon each
occasion, to the necessity of being shaken up regain,
like a great black draught. The twenty-second
chapter cf .Bleak House, already alluded to as likely
to prove one of some importance, by tending to clear
up the mysteries of the fiction, has reference
to Tom All-alone's and to the dwelling-
house of Mr. Tulkinghorn. A detective offi-
cer—Mr. Bucket—sketched to " the very life,"
by one who knows the organization of the
London Police Force, better, perhaps, than any other
Londoner—conducts Mr.:Snagsby to Tom All-alone's
to identify Jo, and thence conducts Jo to Mr. Tulk-
inghorn's to identify the female whom he had guided
to the home and the grave of Nemo. The manner in
which all of this is brought about is wonderfully
natural, and yet, at the same time, also, marvellously
romantic. The closing scene in the sitting-room in
Lincoln's Inn-fields, where the veiled female is dis-
ccvered in solitude, standing in the middle of the
apartment, surrounded by a bright light, to the won-
dering gaze of Jo and his companions, is in some
scarcely accountable way singularly striking and effec-
tive. Every thing appears to indicate that the lady who
hired Jo to point out Krook's and the city graveyard,
was, in truth, as must before now have been conjec-
tured by the reflective, no other than Lady bed-
lock, disguised in the clothes of her waiting-maid,
Mademoiselle fiortense. The said Mademoiselle—
now dismissed from further attendance at Chesney
Wold—is the spectral personage who personates her
former mistress in her own apparel to the bewilder-
ment of the poor crossing-sweeper. Tyro problems in
the story we want solved—firstly, Can Nemo have
been the Captain Rawdon, to whom Mr. George,
above-mentioned, acted formerly as a military at-
tendant ? And, secondly—and this is now more than
ever a matter of curiosity to 11E—What was Mademo-
seille Hortense about when she walked through the
wet grass in her stockings ? Best of all the descrip-
tions contained in the present number, which, in many
respects, is about the most admirable instalment of
Bleak House yet published, is that of the squalid po-
pulation of Tom All-alone's, among whom
we en-
counter

wife, and her companions. z Phi
