VINO ITALIANO CON TEMPERANZA.--Signor VITALI, of the
Italian-Wine-in-England Mission, writes to us to say that Sir WILFRID
LAWSON might temper his favourite beverage of _Aqua Pura_ with half a
gallon flask of _Vinum Purum Italianum_, such as Chianti, and he would
be none the worse for it. We are inclined to agree with the Signor
VITALI, as, in our opinion, there is small likelihood of any Italian
wine-drinker "getting any forrader." Of course Signor VITALI, being
somewhat interested in the matter, and therefore, most hopeful that his
enterprise will result in orders for any number of flasks, and not end
in an empty _fiasco_, would not fail to point out that Italian wine is
likely to have a prolonged existence in this country, as it is not
lacking in Vitali-ty.

TONE AND TINT.--(By a Wearer of the Green.)
YOUR Orangeman swears--he's a terrible fellow!--
They shan't set the Green o'er his favourite Yellow.
His shout's "No surrender!" And is he so Green
As to think we'll turn Yellow because of his spleen?
No, no! He may vow in his last ditch he'll die,
But--we're not to be scared by a _Hue_ and a _Cry_!
