The _Daily Graphic_ published a specific against cholera, alleged to have been invented by Doctor PICK, a German. Evidently "Our pick'd man of countries." As it is something to drink, and not to eat, the inventor is under no necessity to be known henceforth as Dr. PICK-AND-CHEWS. His remedy is to treat the _bacilli_ to Rhine Wine. The result of experiments has been "so much the worse for the _bacilli_." Substitute for the first vowel in "grapes" the third of the vowels, and it is of that the poor bacillus suffers, and dies. As the poet GROSSMITH sings of the German Rhine,-- "_That_ of the Fatherland, The happy Fatherland, Gives the greatest pain inside." However, the Bacillus is an enemy, and if he can be got rid of by _grape-shot_, pour it in and spare not. * * * * * NEW PUBLICATION.--"_The Dumb D._" Musical Novel.

I do not allude to the white wooden Venetian work that shades the Grand Hotel windows. It is of the clique who insist on shutting the windows that I write. Briefly speaking, the inmates of the Grand Hotel may be divided into two classes--the window-openers and the window-shutters. The former are all British. The same Britons who at the Club scowl at a suspicion of draught, and luxuriate in an asphyxiating atmosphere, band against "the foreigners" in this respect. We have a national reputation to keep up. We are the nation of soap, of fresh air, of condescending discontent; and when we are on the Continent every one else, including the native, is "a foreigner;" we carry our nationality about with us like a camp-stool; we squat on it; we are jealous of it; it is a case of "_Regardez, mais ne touchez pas!_" [Illustration: COMMERCIAL INSTINCT. _Original Genius_ (_soliloquising_).
