BY CIIAIILEB DICK.V.NB
A Little Dinner in an Hour.
fell out on a day in this last autumn that
1 had to go down from London to a place of
eaeide resort, on n an hour's business, accom
panied by my esteemed friend Bullfinch. Lit
the 'place of seaside resort be, for the nonce,
called Narnelesston.
. ; shad been loitering about Paris in very hot
weather, pleasantly breakfasting in the open
air in the garden of the Palais Royal or the
Tuileries, pleasantly dining in the open air in
the Elysian Fields,pleasantly tatting my cigar
.an'd lemonade in the open air on the Italian
Bptilevard towards the small hours after mid
night Bullfinch—an excellent man of busi
ness—had summoned me back across the
Channel, to transact this said hour's business
at Namelesston, and thus it tell out that Bull
finch and I were in a railway carriage to
gether on our way to Namelesston, each with
his return ticket in his waistcoat pocket.
Bays Bullfinch: "I haven proposal to make.
Let us dine at the Temeraire."
I asked Bullfinch, Did he recommend the
Temeraire? Inasmuch as I had not been
rated on the books of the Temeraire for many
years.
Bullfinch declined to accept the respansi
hint) , of recommending the Temeraire, btu
On the whole was rather sanguine about it.
Be "beemcd to remember," Bullfinch said,
that he bad diced well there. A. plain did -
- ner, but good. C,,rtatuly not like a Parisian
dinner (here BuiitiLce obviously became th,i
prey of want of confidence), but of of its kiud
very fair.

What I had to say was, cer
tainly. Bullfinch (who is by na
ture of a hopeful constitution) then
began to babble of green geese. But I
checked him in that Falstufflan vein, urging
considerations of time.and cookery. •
In due sequence of events we drove up to
the Temeraire and alighted. A youth in
livery received us on the doorstep. "Looks
well," said Bullfinch, confidentially. And!
then, aloud, "0( ffee-room!"
The youth in livery (now perceived to be,
mouldy) conducted us to the desired' haven,
and , was enjoined by Bullfinch 'to send the
waiter at once, as we wished to order a little
dinner in an hour. Then Bullfinch and
waited for the waiter until, the waiter con
.tinging to waitin some unknown and invisible
sphere of action, we rang for the waiter,
which ring produced the waiter, who' an
nounced himself as not the waiter Who ought
to wait upon us, and who' didn't wait a
moment longer.
Bo Bullfinch approached the coffee-room
door, and melodiously pitching his voice into
a bar where two young ladies were keeping
the books of• the Temeraire, apologetically
explained that we wished to order a little
dinner in an hour, and that we were debarred
from the execution of our inoffensive p'urpose
by consignment to solitude.
Hereupon one of the young.ladies rang a
bell, Which reproduced—at the bar this time
—the waiter who was not the waiter who
.ought to wait upon us; that extraordinary
man, whose life seemed consumed in, waiting
upon people to say that be woulffn't wait
upon them, repented his former protest with
great indignation, and retired. -
Bullfinch, with a fallen countenance, was
about to say to me "This won't do," when
the waiter who ought to wait upon us left off
keeping us waiting at last. "Walter," said
Bullfinch, piteously, "we have been a long
time waiting." The waiter who ought to
wait upon us laid the blame upon the waiter
who ought'not to wait upon MI, and said it
was all that waiter's fault.
"We wish," said Bullfinch, much de
pressed, "to order a little dinner in an hour.
What can we have?"
"What would you like _to have, gentle
men ?"
Bullfinch, with extreme mournfulness of
speech and action, and with a forlorn old fly
blown bill of fare in his hand which the
waiter had given him, and which was a sort
of general manuscript Index to any
Cookery-Book you please, moved the pre
vious question.
We could have mock-turtle soup, a sole,
curry and roast duA. Agreed. At this
table by this windiw. Punctually in an
bout. _ _
I had been feigning to look out of this win.
dow but I had been taking note of the crumbs
on all the tables, the dirty table-clothes, the
stuffy, soupy, airless atmosphere, the stale
leavings everywhere about, the deep gloom of
the waiter who ought to wait upon us, and
the stomach-ache with which a lonely trav
eler at• a distant table in a corner was too evi
dently afflicted. I now pointed out to Bull
finch the alarming circumstance that this
traveler had dined. We hurriedly debated
whether, without infringement of good breed
ing,we could ask him to diselose if tie had par
taken of mock-turtle, sole, curry, or roast
duck? We decided that the thing could not
be politely done, and that we had set our
own stomachs on a cast, and they must stand
the hazard ot the die.
I hold phrenology, within certain limits,
to be.true; I ~am much of the same mind as
to the subtler expressions of the hand; I hold
plissiognomy to be infallible; though all these
sciences demand rare qualities irrthe student.
But I also hold that there is no more certain
index to personal character than the condi
lon of a set of castors is to the character of
any hotel. Knowing, and having tested this
theory of mint, Bullfinch resigned himself to
the worst, when, laying aside any remain
ing veil ot disguise, I held up before him in
succession the cloudy oil and furry vinegar,
the clogged cayenne, the dirty salt, the oh
scene dregs of soy, and the anchovy sauce iu
a flannel waistcoat ot decomposidan.
We went out to transact our business. S
inspiriting was the relief of passing into the
clean and windy streets of Namelesstnn from
the heavy and vapid closeness of the coffee
room ot the Temeraire, that hope began to
revive within us. We began to consider that
perhaps the lonely traveler had taken
pb3 die, or done something. injudicious to bring
his complaint on. Builnuen remarked that
he thought the waiter who ought to wait upon
us had brightened a little when suggesting
curry; and although I knew him tp have been
at that moment the express image of despair,
I allowed myself to become elevated in
spirits. As we walked by the softly lapping
sea, all the notabilities of Namelesston,
are forever going up and down with the
changelessness ot the tides, passed to and fro
in procession. Pretty girls on horseback,
and with detested riding-masters; pretty girls
on foot; mature ladies in hats,—spectacled,
strong-minded and glaring at the opposite or
wtaker sex. The Stock Exchange w as
strongly represented, Jerusalem was strongly
represented, the bores or the prestos
Loudon clubs were strongly repro
seated. Fortune-hunters of all denomi
nations were there, from hirsute insolvency
in a curricle to closely buttoned-up windiery
fin doubtful boots, on the sharp lookout for
any likely young gentleman disposed to play
a game at billiards round the corner. Pilasters
of languages, their lessons finished for the
day, were going to their homes out of sight of
the sea; mistresses of accomplishments,carry
ing small portfolios, likewise tripped home
waid; pairs of scholastic pupils,two and two,
went languidly along the beach,surveying the
face of the waters as if waiting for some Ark
to come and take them oft: Spectres of the
George the Fourth days flitted udsteadily
among the crowd, bearing the outward sem
blance of ancient- dandies, of every one of
whom it might be said, not that he had one
leg in the grave, or both legs, but that he was
steeped in grave to the autumit of his high
shirt collar, and bad nothing real about
him but his bones. Alone stationary
in the midst of all the movements, tl -
Namelesston boatmen leaned against the ra
ings and )awned, and looked out to sea, or
looked at the moored fishiug-bsats and at
nothing. Such is the unchanging manner ot
fife with this nursery of our hardy seamen,
and very dry nurses they are, and always
wanting something to drink. The only tw, - )
nautical personages detached from the railing
were the two fortunate possessors of the eel
close ed monstrous unknown barking fish,
just caught (frequently just caught off N one
leaston), who carried tibia about in a tramper,
and pressed the F clop !ilk- to look in at the lii.

Bullfineb; with distracted eyes,' Was
follow
ing this unaccountable figure "out at the por
tal," like the Ghost in Hamlet, when the ,
waiter who 'ought to `wait upon us' Jostled'
against it, carrying a tureen.
"Waiter!" said a severe diner, lately fin
ished, perusing his bill fiercely , through his
eye. glass.
The waiter put down our tureen on a re-
mote side table, and went to_. see what was
arein in this new direction:
"This is not right,,you know, waiter. Look
here. Here's yesterday's slaerry, one and
eightpence, and here we are again; two shil
lings. And what does f3ixpence.mean ?"
Bo far from knowing what sixpence meant,
the waiter protested - that he - didn't know what
anything meant. He wiped, the perspiration
from his clammy brow, and said it -was im-,
possible to do it,-.-not ,particularizing what,—
:
and the, kitchen was,so far, off.
"Take the bill to. the bar, and get it al
tered," said Mr. Indignation Cocker: so to
call bini '
The waiter' took ;'it,' looked' intensely'
at it,„, didn't seem .; to like „ the idea
of taking it to 'the „bar, and,
sromnitted, as a new light upon the , case, that
perhaps sixpence meant ail pence. •
"I tell you aghin,” said . Mr. Indignation
Cocker, "here's yesterday's aherry—catet you
see it?—one and eightpence, and here we are
again, two shillings. , ; _What do you make of
One and eightpence and two shillings?"
Totally unable to make anything of one and
eightpence and.two shillings, the waiter went
out to try if anbody else could; merely casting
a helpless backward glance at Bullfinch, in
acknowledgment of his pathetic entreaties for
our soup-tureen. After a pause,during wnich
Mr. Indignation Cocker read a newspaper,
and coughed defiant coughs, Bullfinch rose
to get the tureen, when the waiter reappeared
and brought it;' dropping Mr. Indignation
Cocker's altered bill on Mr. Indignation
Cocker's table as he came along.
"It's quite impossible to do it, gentlemen,"
murmured the waiter; "and the kitchen is so
far off."
"Well. You don't keep the house; it's
not your fault, we suppose. Bring some
sherry."
"Waiter!" From 'Mr. Indignation Cocker,
with a new and burning sense of injury upon
him.
The waiter, arrested on his way to our
sherry, stopped short, and came back to see
what was wrong now.
"Will yeti hook here? This is worse than
before. Do you understand? Here% yester
day's sherry one and eightpence,, and here we
are again two shillings. And what the devil
does Ninepence mean?"
This new portent utterly confounded the
waiter. He wrung his napkin and mutely
appealed to the ceiling. ' '
"Winter, fetch that sherry," says Bullfinch
in open wrath and revolt.
"I want to know," persisted Mr. Indigna
tion Cocker, "the meaning of Ninepence. I
Want to know the meaning of sherry one and
eightpence yesterday,and of here we are again
two shillings. Send somebody."
The distracted waiter got out of the room
under pretext of sending somebody, and by
that means got our wine. But the instant he
appeared with our decanter, Mr. Indignation
Cocker descended on him again.
"Waiter!" •
"You'will have the goodness to attend to
our dinner, waiter," say sßullfinch, sternly.
"I am very sorry, but it's quite impossible
to do it, gentlemen," pleaded the waiter;"and
the kitchen—"
"Waiter!" said Mr. Indignation Cocker.
'"ls," resumed the waiter, "so far off that—"
"Waiter2"persisted Mr.lndignation Cocker,
"send somebody."
. We were not without our fears that the
waiter rushed out to hang himself, and we
were much relieved by his fetching somebody,
—in gracefully flowing skirts and with a
waist,—who very soon settled Mr. Indignation
Cocker's business.
"Oh!" said Mr. Cocker, with his fire sur
prisingly quenched by this apparition. "I
wished to ask about this bill of mine, because
it appears to me that there's a little mistake
here. Let me show you. Here's yesterday's
eberry one and eightpence, and here we . are
again two shillings. And how do you explain
Ninepence?"
However, it was explained in tones too soft
to be overheard, Mr. Cocker was heard to say
noting more than "Ah-h-h! Indeed! Thank
you! Yes," and shortly afterwards went out,
a milder man.
The lonely traveler with the stomach-ache
had all this time suffered severely;drawing up
a leg now and then, and sipping hot brandy
ar d water with grated ginger in it. When we
tasted our (very) mock turtle soup, and were
instantly seized with symptoms of some dis
order simulating apoplexy, and occasioned
by the surcharge of the nose and brain witb
lukewarm dish water holding in solution soul
flour, poisonous • condiments, an& (say)
seventy-five per cent. of misee4aneoud
kitchen stuff rolled into balls, werviere in.
dined to trace his disorder to that source.
On the other hand, there was a silent anguish
upon him too strongly resembliniz the results
established within ourselves by the sherry, to
be discarded from alarmed consideration.
Again: we observed him, with terror, to be
much overcome by our sole's being aired in a
temporary 'retreat close to him, while the
waiter went out(ets we cohceiyed) to see his
friends. And when.the curry made its appear
ance he suddenly retired in great disorder.
In fine, for the. neeatable part of this little
dinner (as contradistinguished from the un
drinkable) we paid only seven shillings, six
pence each. And Bullfinch and I agreed unanimously, that no such iii served,,
appointed, ill-cooked, nasty little dinner could
begot for the money anywhere else under the
sun. With that comfort to our backs, we
turned them on the dear old Temeraire, the
charging Temeraire, and resolved (in the
Soo Lich dialect) to gang nae mair to the flabby
Temeraire.—Every Saturday.

ded heart. (I don't know what balm is, but;
I believe it is the correct expression to use in'
his connectiori—rieverhaving seen any balm.) ,
Yciu may remember that I lectured in Newark'
lately for the young gentlemen of the Clay
onian Society? I did at any rate. Daring
the afternoon of that day, I was talking with
one of the young gentlemen just referred to,
and he.saie he had an uncle,, who, from some,
cause or other, seemed to have grown perma
nently bereft of all emotion. And,with tears
in his eyes, this young man said:
"Oh, it I could only see him laugh
once more! Oh. if I could only see him
weep!"
was touched. I never could withstand
distress. 1:I - said: - -
"Bring Min to my iodate. I'll start him
fot you."
"Oh, if you could tint Ifio it! •If you could
but do it, all our family would bless you
forevermore—for he is very dear to us. Oh,
my benefactor, can you make• him laugh?
Can yon bring soothing tears to those parched
orbs?'
I was profoundly moved. I said:
"My son, bring the 'old party around. I
have got some jokes in that lecture that
will make him laugh if there is any laugh in
bim—and if they miss fire I have some others
that'll make him cry or kill him,,one or the
other."
Then the young man blessed the, and
wept on my neck, and blew his nose on trey
coat tail, and, went after his uncle. He
placed him in full view, in the second row of
benches, that night, and I began on him. I
tried him 'with mild jokes; then with severe
ones; I dosed him with bad jokes, and rid-.
died him with good ones; I fired old jokes in
to him, and peppered him fore and-aft with
red-hot new ones; I warmed up to my work,
and assaulted him right and left, in front and
behind; I fumed and sweated, and charged
and routed, till I was hoarse and sick, and
frantic and furious—but I never moved him
once—l never started a smile or a tear!
Never a ghost of a smile, and never a suspi
cion of moisture! I was astounded. I
closed the lecture at last with one despairing
shriek—with one wild burst of humor—and
hurled a joke of supernatural atrocity full at
him. I never phased him! Then I sat down
bewildered and exhausted.
The President of the Society came up and
bathed my head with cold water, and said;
"What made you carry on so toward the
last?"
I said : "I-was trying to make that con
founded old fool laugh, in the second row."
And hesaid : :`Well' you were- wasting
your time—because he is deal and dumb,and
as blind as a badger."
Now was that any way for that old man' ,
nephew to impose on a stranger and an or

fae%sage of the Governor of Georgia.
ATI.A.NTA, Ga., Jan. 15.—The Senate and Hous9
re-assembled, and the message of Governor Bul
lock was received and read. He commences by
announcing that on December 7he addressed a
communication to Congress, setting forth that
the reconstruction laws had not been fully exe
cuted in - Georgia. He then proceeds to state that
the remarkable action of the Legislature, at its
session, had induced a careful examination
of the law and of the manner of its execution, to
ascertain how it was possible that such extraor
dinary results could occur. He argues that a
strict adherence to the letter of the reconstruction
acts would have prevented the overthrow of them
which has been accomplished in Georgia. Cim
am, he says, is the sole interpreter of the true
intent and meaning of the reconstruction mea
t-nres, and the final arbiter upon the question of
their execution.
The Senate,on reading the 'Governor's message.
passed a resolution referring that portion of it
relative to the State's relation to the general gov
palm( nt to a committee of tive,aad also a resolu
tion calling upon the Governor to show the facts
ccltc rein he states that there is no safety for life
or property, and that it is the earnest desire of
this body to co-operate in all proper measures
with the other departments of the Government
in offering fill and ample protection to life and
property. The Rouse passed a resolution refer
ring the message to a special committee of ten.
