CVol. xi., p. 58.) 



I find in my collection of scraps a paper of 

 which the following is a copy, and probably you 

 will not think it unworthy of a place with the 

 " Song in praise of Miss E,owe " in " N. & Q." : 



"A party at Lord Macclesfield's agreed one evening to 

 amuse themselves by drawing tickets, on which various 

 devices were written, and they were thus turned into 

 compliments by Cowper : 



Vanity. — Drawn by Lord Macclesfield. 

 " Be vain, my lord, you have a right ; 

 For who, like you, can boast this night. 



A group assembled in one place, 

 Fraught with such beauty, wit, and grace. 



Insensibility. — Honorable Mr. Marsham. 



" Insensible — can Marsham be ? 

 Yes ! and no fault, you must agree ; 

 His heart his virtue only warms, 

 Insensible to vice's charms. 



Inconstancy. — Mr. Adams. 



" Inconstancy there is no harm in. 

 In Adams, where it looks so charming : 

 Who wavers, as he well may boast, 

 Which virtue he shall follow most. 



Impudence. — Honorable Mr. St. John. 



" St. John, your vice you can't disown : 

 For in this age 'tis too well known. 

 That impudent that man must be 

 Who dares from folly to be free. 



Intemperance. — Mr. Gerard. 



" Intemperance implies excess : 

 Chang'd tho' the name, the fault's not less ; 

 Yet, blush not, Gerard, there's no need, — 

 In all that's worthy you exceed. 



Dissimulation. — Mr. Conyers, who first drew one he did 

 not like, and afterwards dr^w another. 



" Conyers dissemble ! Let me see ! 

 Would I could say it cannot be ! 

 But he's a mere dissembler grown, 

 By taking vices not his own. 



A 'Blank ' was put in, which was drawn by the 

 Honorable Mr. Legge. 



" If she a blank for Legge design'd, 

 Sure Fortune is no longer blind ; 

 For we shall fill the paper given 

 With ev'ry virtue under heav'n. 



Cowardice. — Gen. Caillard. 



" Most soldiers cowardice disclaim. 

 But Caillard owns it without shame : 

 Bold in whate'er to arms belong. 

 He wants the courage to do wrong. 



Celibacy. — Mr. Fuller. 



*' A married man can't single be : 

 This vice, cries Fuller, suits not me. 

 Guilty ! say all ; for, 'tis well known, 

 He and his wife are trulv one." _

PHOTOGRAPHIC COBBESPONDENCE. 



C6roUine on Glass and on Paper. — "^L St^phane Geof- 

 fray has addressed to La Lumiere the following commu- 

 nication, extracted from a pamphlet which he is about to 

 bring out immediatelj'. 



Ceroleine on Glass. — Take 8 grammes of gun cotton, 

 600 grammes of rectified ether of 65°, 70 grammes of 

 solution of ceroleine ; sensitise according to the purpose 

 j'ou intend it for. In this collodion the alcohol is replaced 

 by the solution of ceroleine ; it has more body than the 

 ordinary collodion, resists the baths and washings much 

 better, is more easily transferred to paper, &c. It is, 

 above all, valuable for views ; the image which it gives 

 has much more depth.
