TONGUE Torture. .

x One enervating morning, Just after
the rise of the sum, youth bearing the
cognomen Of Calico glided into his gon-
dola over the Legendary waters OF the
lethean Thames. He was accompanied
by his allies and coadjutors, the polorous
Pepys and the erudite Cholmondeley.-
the most combative aristOcrat extant,
and an epicurean who for learned yagar
ries and revolving discrepancies of char
a.,ter would take precedence of the most
e,udite of all Areopagite literati.
These sacrilegious dramatis personae
were discussing in detail suggestive
and exhaustive address, delivered from
the proscenium-box of the Calisthenic
Lyceum by a notable financier on obliga-
tory hydrOpathy, as accessory to the ir-
revocable and irreparable doctrine OF ev-
olution, which had been vehemently pam
egyrized by splenetic Professor OF
acoustics, and simultaneously denounced
by a complaisant opponent as an un-
demonstrated romance of the last decade,
amenable to no reason, however, allO-
pathic, outside of its own lamentable en-
virons. r
These peremptory tripartite brethren
arrived at Greenwich. wishing to aggran-
die themselves by INDUCING in exem-
plary relaxation, indicatory of implacable
detestation of integral regeneration and
exoteric intrigue. They fratenized with
chronological harlequin who was con-
noisseur in mezzotint and falconry. This
piquant person was heaping contumely
and scathing railery on an amateur IN
jugular recitative, who held that the
Pharaohs of Asia were cOnversant with
his theory that morphine and quinine
were exorcists of bronchitis.
Meanwhile the leisurely Augustine, OF
Cockburn, drank from tortoise-shell
wassail cup to the health of an apotheo-
sized recusant, who was his supererOga-
tory patron, and an assistant recogni-
zance in the immobile nomenclature OF
interstitial molecular phonics. The con-
tents of the vase proving soporific, q
stolid plebeian took from its cerements
a heraldic violoncello, and, assisted by
a plethoric diocesan from Pail Mall, who
performed on a sonorous piano-forte,
proceeded to wake the dangerous echoes
of the Empyrean. They babe the prolyx
Caucasian gentleman not to misconstrue
their enexorable demands, while they
dined on acclimated anchovies and apri-
cot truffies, and had for dessert wise
acres pharmacopeia. Thus the trucu
lent Pythagoreans had novel repast tit
for the gods. On the subsistence OF tho
feast they alternated between soft Ian
guors and isolated scenes of squalor
which followed mechanist's reconnois'
sance of the imagery of Uranus. the le'
gend of whose incognito related to apon

for each night. "'rhe BOBBY" "Th,
