CROTCHET CASTLE.

MR. MAC QUEDY.

Do you not see that you have brought disparates together? the Jacquerie and the march of mind.

THE REV. DR. FOLLIOTT.

Not at all, sir. They are the same thing, under different names. Πολλῶν ονομάτων μορφὴ μία.[1] What was Jacquerie in the dark ages, is the march of mind in this very enlightened one—very enlightened one.

MR. CHAINMAIL.

The cause is the same in both; poverty in despair.

MR. MAC QUEDY.

Very likely; but the effect is extremely disagreeable.
