Thackerey.

--Two mots of Thackerey, not before in print, appear in a resent number of Frazer:

Being told that an acquaintance of his who was notorious for his love of beer, had sailed for India he said: ‘"He was a good follow. Take him for half and half we shall not look upon his like again."’

On his introduction to one of the Harpers in New York, Thackeray had joked with him on the American contempt for copyright, and when he went into the drawing room he took a little girl, when he found playing there, onto his knee, and gazing at her with feigned wonder, said in solemn tones: "And this is a pirate's daughter!"
