The catacombs OF Hythe Church in

we may safely deduce that

Thus does human carnivore In
the Saturday Review dispose Of the

columns of BREWER.
In a subsequent issue OF the same
journal Mr.. Eustace Miles, shining

as good to exercise the teeth on as

ators attempt to parry the brilliant
attack of this new adversary.
Tt is of no use, however; the truth
is out at last, and every British pa
