Somewhat of this monotone of sentiment usually afflicts the figures with which Mr. SIMEON SOLOMON peoples his pictorial compositions. 'A Youth relating Tales to Ladies' (77), is, for example, alarmingly lackadaisacal. Certainly these "tales" could not have sparked with wit, they do not provoke merriment. Mr. Solomon and Mr. Leslie need tonics, possibly even a course of bitters might be of service to their constitutions and compositions. (page 163, column 1)
