TO MR. PUNCH.

SIR,--Having incautiously witnessed two consecutive performances of Mr.

Macready in the "Lady of Lyons," the comic portions of them threw me into

a state of deep and chronic melancholy, which the various physicians

employed were unable to cure. Hearing, however, of your excellent

medicine, I took it regularly every Saturday for five weeks, and am now

able to go about my daily employment, which being that of a low comedian,

was materially interfered with by my late complaint.
