Mr. J—L a few ,mornings since having attended
an. invitation to breakfast with a dignified brother
Barrister, not less semiaerit for economy than tar his
lrigal knowledge, the repast was served in by a long
lean footman, a neat- relation to the lay-brother in
the Duenna ; two. veneers of hard dry toast were pre-
sented on a silver rack, accompanied by two prints
of butter, each not larger than a half-crown piece.--
The-entertainer hospitably pressed his guest to help
himself, when the witty advocate, mounting 'his.
spectacles, began to explore the plate which held
the butter with the point of his knife. His host
asked, with some surprise," What the d—l he
wps at with, his spectacles ?" .To which Mr. J. an-
swered, " That he was always obliged to use spec-
tacles in perusing small prints.
an Monday night a fire broke out in the Stable of
a Gentleman at Ripley, Surrey, whiCh destroyed the

ed, half of which was .insured.
