_Epigram all the way from Belgium._--Should you think the following

epigram, written in the travellers' book at Hans-sur-Lesse, in Belgium,

worth preserving, it is at your service:

"Old Euclid may go to the wall,

For we've solved what he never could guess,

How the fish in the river are _small_,

But the river they live in is _Lesse_."
