page 46 of 67 (68%)
_"Tyrants are always sick."_

_Villikens_. Mr. HORACE GREELEY, although an intimate personal friend of
WESTON, the pedestrian, is not, as you suppose, the Compiler of WALKER'S
Dictionary.

_Cornet_. The critic was wrong in attributing "freshness" to the air of
"Walking down Broadway." If you walk down Broadway at this season you
will find the air any thing but fresh.

_Gin-and-Milk_. It is a mistake. THEODORE TILTON never sang Comic Songs
in a Houston Street Free-and-Easy.

_Chutney_. Somebody has been "selling" you. BABOO BRAHMIN CHUNDER SEN is
not a relation of HANS CHRISTIAN ANDERSEN.

_Sculp_. Is it in your power to give the proportions of a perfect human
figure?

_Answer_. Your question implies a doubt of the genius of a great
American Sculptor. It is _in_ our Power. Look at his figure of the Greek
Slave.

_Richard III_. My friends think that I have a decided talent for the
stage. How can I be fitted for it?

_Answer_. By a theatrical costumer. Pay great attention to "Measure for
Measure."

_Debrett_. Who were the Knight's Companions of the Bath?
