TALK IN TOWN.

(FROM OUR PRIVATE CORRESPONDENT.)

Temple, Monday Morning.
THERE is nothing more amusing than the attempt to
imitate a great coup in which an original genius has suc-
ceeded. This is especially true when the act is one of a
quasi-dramatic nature, such as that which the two Jews,
Rothschild and Salomons, have been attempting in the
House of Commons. They foolishly fancy they can come
up to the perfection of Daniel O'Connell, the greatest
mountebank of modern times. We all remember the
story 'of Burke throwing down the dagger on the floor of
the House of Commons. It was a performance that pre-
te could hardly have approved outside Richard-

son's booth ; but the country member improved upon it
who proposed to make a pathetic speech on negro slavery,
and at the top of a climax to fling down a nigger on the
floor. Rothschild and Salomons have been imitating
Dan with equal grace to that of the county member and
Burke. Rothschild presented himself, and was bowed
out ; and the corrupt Government have since per-

mitted the City of London to remain unrepresented ; but
old Salomons determined to make a greater flourish still.
At his election he used the unfortunate but suggestive
simile that Rathschild had " allowed himself to be hung
door of the House of Commons as the scarecrow
of civil and religious liberty." This is as good as the
barrister's trope, that " the defendant stood

up at ti

ke a croco-

1 his hands in his breeches' pockets, shedding
' Such is the eloquence the House has lost by the
refusal of the Jew alderman ; but David was not to be
ousted without at least doing more than being " hung up
at the door." He was, like another respectable Hebrew
—" the choice of the people"—that is to say, the venal
and corrupt riff-raff of Greenwich and Woolwich, and he

was pl

He has done

, he pro-

he wishes to tell us so. Then he ought to " out with it"
candidly, like poor Robbie Burns when he sings—

Sae far, I've doitered up the bill,
I've dinner'd wi' a Lord.

That dinner of Burns's, by the way, should be immortal,
for Lord Daer's superciliousness to the poet produced that
charter song of freedom—

" A man's a man for a' that."

However, Thackeray thinks a man is not a man if he is
outside the ranks of the haute voile, and really the aris-
tocracy may be readily pardoned for keeping literary
snobs at arm's length. That sort of cattle is divisible into
two classes—one whose feelers are always extended in the
desire to be insulted ; fellows who say, " I am a literary
man, to be sure, but you need not lock up your spoons." I
would as soon associate with a Radical orator or a bum-
bai liff as one of these. The other class are very good fellows,
who always have " a good work on the stocks, for which
John Murray will give £1000," and wind up by borrowing
£5. The conceit of certain low-bred Cockneys, whom
one could name, and who have made a little name in
literature, is most amusing. That too is disagreeable to
those that are " to the manner born" of good society.
But the real secret of literary position is this—that the
profession has no safeguard. It is a common on which the
first donkey can graze who gets possession, and that being
so it cannot in England (at least yet awhile) be held to be
a qualification to enter the exclusive ranks of high society.
In fine ,Mr. Thackeray has done nothing by his lectures,
either for the position of literature or of himself. He
thinks literary men ought to " pay their debts"—no
doubt and all other men ; but as poor Gen. M'Mahon
graphically said, " Soloman was a wise man, and Samp-
son was strong, but neither of 'em could pay money when
they hadn't it."—the case of Mr. Thackeray's poorer
brethren.

COMMERCIAL AND MONETARY NEWS

Monday Night,

The following is an extract from the excellent bi-
monthly circular of Messrs. T. and H. Littledale and Co.,
published to-day, and we cannot do better than withhold
any remarks of our own in order to make room for the
observations of that experienced firm ;
We have still to regret our inability to report an improved
state of matters in our produce markets. Everything has con-
tinued as lifeless throughout the fortnight as for months pre-
vious. There appears scarcely an article of which there are
not more sellers than buyers, and consequently prices remain
depressed; and until importers will attend more to the extent
of shipments to this country and supplies fall off, we really can
see little hope of improvement. The stock of bullion in the

the very large imports of gold; and although this may partially
be accounted for at the present moment by the payment of
dividends and salaries in the publicoffices, it is a note of warn-

ken or un
