 1hackeray'e Satire.

Thackeray created quite erroneous impressions of himself by often indulg- ing in irony in the presence of people who were incapable of understanding it. One curious instance which he gave was this: Thackeray had been dining at the Garrick and was talking in the smoking room after dinner with vari- ous club acquaintances. One of them happening to have left his cigar case at home, Thackeray, though dislik1ng the man, who was a notorious tuft hunter, good naturedly offered him one of his cigars. The man accepted the cigar, but, not finding it to his liking
 had the bad taste to say to Thackeray. q say, Thackeray, you won't mind ny saving l don't think much of this cigar?" Thackeray, no doubt irritated at the mans ungraciousness and bear ing in mind his tuft hunting predilec- tions, quietly responded, You ought to. my good fellow, for it was given me by lord" Instead, however, of detecting the irony, the dolt 1mmedi- ately attributed the remark to snob- bishness on Thackeray's part and to the end of his days went about declar- ing that "Thackeray had boasted that he had been given cigar by a lord"

Edmund Kean was playing in Rich ard Ill.," and the part of Catesby had to be taken by low comedian. who sauntered on to the stage at the wrong moment and uttered the famous words, My lord, the Duke of Buck ingham is taken" in the wrong place.
 Edmund clinched his fists in rage. but otherwise took no notice of the re- mark.
 Later the comedian repeated the words in the right place. and when the king expressed surprise at the news Catesby folded his arms, walked boldly down the stage and remarked to the great actor in loud tones:
