27.--A STREET-ARAB OF 1849.]

Glancing at Nos. 26 and 27, we come to No. 28, which is one of Richard

Doyle's very funny serial sketches, entitled "Manners and Customs of

ye Englyshe." This is one of the funniest, although, where all are so

good, it is difficult to single out any one of this remarkably clever

series. Every bit of this sketch, No. 28, is worth looking at; the

climbing positions of the deer-stalkers are most comical, and look at

the two gillies holding back the dogs, and at the stag who is surveying

the approaching attack. This was published September 22, 1849.
