For the proper excitement of the
necessary enthusiasm, he submits the following Mental Bill of Fare:--
FOR STRONG STOMACHS AND WEAK INTELLECTS:--
Feargus O'Connor, as per Crown and Anchor.
Mr. Vincent.
Mr. Roebuck, with ancestral sauce--very fine, if not pitched too
strong.
N.B.--In case of surfeit from the above, the editor of the
_Times_ may be resorted to as an antidote.
Daniel O'Connell--whose successful practice of the exciting and
fasting, or rather, starving system, among the rent
contributors in Ireland, not only proves the truth of the
theory, but enables B.C. to recommend him as the safest dish in
the _carte_.
FOR WEAK STOMACHS AND VERY SMALL IMAGINATIONS:--
D'Israeli (Ben)--breakfast off the "Wondrous Tale of Alroy."
Bulwer--lunch on "Siamese Twins."
Stephens--dine off "The Hungarian Daughter."
Heraud--tea off "The Deluge,"--sup off the whole Minerva Library.
N.B.--None of the above, will bear the slightest dilution.
