Punch In England.

Punch had certainly no reason to
complain Of any lack Of homage paid
him by the leading spirits Of the eight
zenith century. Addison, as a young
man, wrote Latin verses about him,
Swift used him as one of the engines OF
his political satire, and Steele, in 1.-The
Taller" got up a mock quarrel be-
tween Mr.. Isaac Bickerstaff and George
Powell, Punch's most famous show
man. In the course Of this quarl .,
which is supposed TO have been a par
ody Of a controversy between Hoad y
and Blackall, bishop Of Exeter Nh
Bickerstaff declares that he knows the
Joiner who put Punch together, and
that the hero's head had actually once
been laid aside for a nutcracker. More
over, his scolding wife is but bit OF
crabtree. his courtiers were all taken
out Of a quickest hedge near lslington,
and DR.. Faustus himself is supposed to
have learned his whole part from an
old woman whom he long served in the
figure Of broomstatf.
Curran, as a young man, was an
amateur Of marionettes, and on one &C.
casion obtained permission from show
man to pull the strings that worked the
figures and to put words into their
mouths. So we'll did he acquit himself
of his task that the audience was in
raptures, and the money collected was
four times as much as usual 1t is said
that his success in finding retorts and
arguments for his little clients showed
Curran his true vocation and led him
to choose the bar for his profession. -

No More Slashing.

1t is q noteworthy fact that the rapid
" increasing number Of new books, not
Of poetry only. at the present hour is
accompanied by diminution. not an
increase, Of critical severity. One would
have supposed that at such period
when, to adapt the proverb Of the wood
and the trees, one can hardly see liter
atlre for the books-the critical stand
ard would rise; that the critic would
show himself more, not less, exacting
and would be more careful, in the in
terest Of the reader, to emphasize the
distinction between the excellent and
the mediocre.
Yet no one can read much of the cur
rent periodical criticism without noting
that it is rather the opposite that is
happening. While it is an obvious and
undeniable fact that the manufacture
of books, as distinguished from author
ship, exists on an enormous scale, yet
apparently the average critic becomes
more easy to please, not less, than of
old, as II he cried in sheer despair to
the makers of books, well, if you can t
rise to my standard, must come down
to yours. and hardly six months pass
without some prose romance appearing,
by some fresh writer. and being received
with such chorus Of welcome and such
hecatonbs of praise as Ito borrow Ma
caulay's phrase) would require some
modification if applied to the master
pieces Of Walter Scott-to "Old Nor
tality" or THE Heart of Midlothian. "
Now, as l have said, no one wishes
for return of the criticism called slash
ing. but what l do think the intelligent
reader often signs for is some criticism
that may be- called discriminating, and
il the value Of such in literature OF
whatever kind is great it is surely
greatest where the literature in question
is poetry, in which Horace has told us
and the cultivated sense Of mankind has
ratified his Yords-"mediocrity is not
