Sir, you forget yourself. The People must be fed. We are Seven. Twelve are on the Troop Roll--Nine Strangers have sent in their cards--the Gillies are growing upon us--the Camp-followers have doubled the population since morn, and the circumambient Natives are waxing strong. Hunger is in the Camp--but for this supply, Famine; _Iliacos intra muros_ PECCATUR _et extra_; Dods reports that the Boiler is wroth, the Furnace at a red heat, Pots and Pans a-simmer--the Culinary Spirit impatient to be at work. In such circumstances, the tenth of a ton is no great matter; but it is better than nothing. The mind of the Manciple may lie at rest, for that Star-fish will never see to-morrow's Sun; and motionless as he looks, he is hastening to the Shades. NORTH. Sir, you forget yourself. There is other animal matter in the world besides Fish. No penury of it in camp. I have here the Manciple's report. "One dozen plucked Earochs--one ditto ditto Ducklings--d. d. d. March Chick--one Bubblyjock--one Side of Mutton--four Necks--six Sheep-heads, and their complement of Trotters--two Sheep, just slaughtered and yet in wholes--four Lambs ditto--the late Cladich Calf--one small Stot--two lb. 40 Rounds in pickle--four Miscellaneous Pies of the First Order--six Hams--four dozen of Rein-deer Tongues--one dozen of Bears' Paws--two Barrels of----" BULLER. Stop. Let that suffice for the meanwhile. NORTH. The short shadow-hand on the face of Dial-Cruachan, to my instructed sense, stands at six. You young Oxonians, I know, always adorn for dinner, even when roughing it on service; and so, V. and W., do you. These two elderly gentlemen here are seen to most advantage in white neckcloths, and the OLD ONE is never so like himself as in a suit of black velvet. To your tent and toilets.
