gormandizing powers of our fore-

piece Of turbot or slice of salmon,
with lobster sauce; and while the ven.
ison on Southdown Is getting ready We
toy with piece of sweetbread. and
mellow it with bumper of madeira.
No sooner is the mutton or venison dis.
posed of, with its never-failing accom-
paniments of jelly and vegetables,
than we set the whole of IL in a fer
inent with champagne, and drown 10
with hook and sauterne. These arc
quickly followed by the wing and
breast of partridge or bit of pleas
ant or wild duck, and when the stom.
ach is all on fire with excitement we
cool IL for an instant with a piece Of
iced pudding, and then immediately
lash il into fever with undiluted al
cohol in the form of cognac or strong
liqueur; after which there comes q
spoonful or so Of jelly as an emollient,
morsel of ripe Stilton as digestant,a
piquant salad to whet the appetite for
wine, and glass of old port To per-
suade the stomach, if it can, into quiet
ness. All these are more leisurely sue
ceeded by dessert with its baked meats,
its fruits and its strong drinks, TO be
afterward muddled with coffee, and
complicated into rare mixture with
tea, floating with the richest cream"
IL there are many whose daily diet is
too varied, too luxurious, there are
also many who, through unkind and
unpropitious circumstances, are scarce
ly able to supply the wherewithal TO
satisfy the Legitimate wants of nature.
There are not few who think them
selves lucky If at the dinner hour they
are able TO allay the cruel pangs OF
hunger with II philosophic pipe.
