THOMAS HOOD'S GRAVE.—The publication
in Eliza's Cook's Journal of" Lines written at Kensall-green
Cu•mctry," has induced numerous readers to express an earnest de-
sire to assist le raising a fund for the purpose of piseimf a memorial
over the remants of "Poor Hood."

Many a burst of merriment has echoed above " Hood's Comic
Anneal." from the lips of ail classes. For mane a year he cheered
our Christmas firesides with racy humour, that never wearied by
its frivolity nor offended by its coarseness. Far and wide was he
known as the Post of Mirth: bat the higher development of his
genius and the nobler purpose of hit muse were shown in such
glorious hymns as " The Song of the Shirt"- and the " Bridge of
Sighs." Those who have read either of these poems will acknow-
ledge that such a man deserves to have a mark upon his sleeping-
place, so that it may be. f tend wit, out the help of a grave-yard
servant, and ail who hays laughed at his inimi•able wit, er sighed
over his human tenderness, are now earnestly solicited to spare
what they can in aid of a purpose which is alike praiseworthy in
tee 11% ing and due to•the dead. • • •• -
At the request of the• committee, Miss Eliza Cook has consented
to be Treasurer to the fund, and. Mr. John Watkins to be Honorary
Secretary.
Subscriptions will be rece'ved by Mr. William Strudwicke, at the
Whittington Chili, Arimdil-street;.strand ; at the office of Eliza
