172 TOBACCO-PIPES, CIGARS, ETC. 



M of his initials, and is here copied, Fig. 1, from 

 Heller's Monogrammen-Lexikon, published at Bam- 

 berg in 1831. The company of 



^rl n goldsmiths of Narbonne, had the 



' MM 2 pipe, Fig. 2, for their mark : they 



■/jljuqX. were founded in 1669. In the 



^^= s=s ^ === nr Journal of Timothy Burrell, Esq. 



(published by the Sussex Archaeolo- 

 gical Society, vol. iii.), we get the form of the tobacco- 

 pipe of the same era, that gentleman having a curious 

 habit of marking passages by a drawing of a tobacco- 

 pipe. This, Fig. 3, occurs to an entry in 1696. 



That the short Irish pipe termed the dudeen* and 

 similar to the cutty-pipe t in Scotland, was known 

 about the same era ; and valued for its exhibition of 

 the prowess of the smoker in darkening it, seems to be 

 inferred from a passage in one of Radcliffe's Poems 

 (1682), termed a Call to the Guard, in which he 

 describes the soldiers : 



" With pipes black as their mouths, 

 And short as their pay." 



From a passage in Phillips' Splendid Shilling, we 

 may infer that the Welsh at his era indulged in the 

 short pipe. His poor author : 



" from tube as black 



As Winter's chimney, or well-polished jet, 



* "Dudeen," says Croker, "means a little stump of a pipe;" it is 

 sometimes not three inches long, and keeps the smoker's nose warm, 

 t Cutty is Scottish for short.
