DOUGLAS JERROLD.

" We must admonish thee, my worthy friend (for, perhaps, thy heart may
be better than thy head), not to condemn a character as a bad one, because it is
not perfectly a good one. If thou dost delight in these models of perfection,
there are books enow written to gratify thy taste; but as we have not in the
course of our conversation, ever happened to meet with any such person, we
have not chosen to introduce any such here."
