THE PHYSICAL-FORCE DOCTOR.—Dr.Busbv
was head master of Westminster School, and had he been
living now in these Chartist days when the schoolmaster
is abroad with a vengeance, this first class physical- force.
man probably would have been found with a leek in his
hat, and a rod under his arm, reading " great moral les-
sons" on the Welsh mountains to assembled thousands of
terrific Taffies. The supposition is hazarded. because the
flogging doctor showed through life a leaning to brute
force, and a preference of matter to mind. But setting
aside supposition, and speaking seriously of a fact, this
erudite pedant's penchant for punishment is well known,
and a hundred incidents illustrative of it will suggest them-
selves to every body. Amongst other facts, the following one
may be relied on as authentic. A gentleman, whose son had
been flogged four times in one week, sent by h:s footman a
rather angry letter to Dr. Busby, complaining of the se-
Veto correction to which his heir had been subjected, and
calling upon him in a tone of indignant authority to send
by the bearer a reply, as fully distinct and satisfactory as
the outraged feelings of a father and a gentleman might
demand. The footman delivered his letter, was desired
by the Doctor to wait fur an answer, was in a few minutes
shown into a small hack-room, seized by Busby's practised
people, and received as good a birching as ever boy was
blessed with. lie was then permitted to go away, the
Ductor saying to him, " make my compliments to your
master; tell him no other answer to his letter is necessary,
as you yourself have the original, of which he may, if he
choose, have a copy any day he likes—' a full, distinct, and
satisfactory one'—but personal applications only will be
attended to."—Sportsman of January.
PARIS Tit EATRICALS.—The name of Ellsler
has decidedly disappeared at the Opera. The management
has cancelled the engagements of those two danseuses.
Miss Fanny settles in America, and Miss Theresa has just
left for Germany. The place remains vacant for Taglioni,
who will re-appear this summer fur three months at the
Opera. The arrival at Paris of an eighth wonder of the
world is announced in the person of Madame Leave. This
young virtuoso will, it is said, effect such a revolution in
song, that no chanteuse will be able to appear with her,
and that Mesdames Damoreau, Persiani, Grisi, Viardot,
Stoltz, and Dorus, will scarcely venture to sing as core
phees. Madame Leave is decidedly the woman whom
Meyerbeer awaits for his prima donna in the Anabaptists.
An intrigue of Camaradicre is talked of, which would de-
prive the London Opera of Grisi in the approaching sea-
son. We do not think that M. Laporte can have mis-
taken his interest so far as to deprive himself of the co-
operation of talents such as those of Madame Grisi, who
enjoys so much favour with English high society. It me
year cost the manager of the Queen's Theatre 15,000
guineas for having wished to do without Madame ,‘laii.
bran, and yet, in the way of compensation, the public had
been given Mdlle. Sontag.—Quolidienne.
TAILORS AND COATS.—Of all the gifts with
which we frail mortals are endowed, there is not oae so
sadly abused and misused as that of " taste" (mind, we do
not use the term palatably); and of all tastes surely
none is so cruelly tortured as that of dress. Tho omni-
' potent arbitress, .‘ Fashion," has much to answer for, her
sway in nine cases out of ten being subversive of propriety
and judgment. What can be more preposterous than to
follow, in every minute particular, the style of dress
adopted by any distinguished individual? That which
may appear becoming upon the person of Lord A—,
tnigbt be ridiculous on a Mr. B—. It is the power of
nice discrimination alone that identifies the man of taste.
To a chosen few only does the enviable talent or gift be-
long of what we call dressing well.—Sportsman.
A fine male leopard was on Monday presented to
the Zoological Gardens by General Churchill. All the
animals at that establishment are in good health.
