HOW VERY PLAIN.
• .. To tha Editor of the Daily Southern Cuoas. Sir,— Ifind"Lord"Baconhasbeenfiadingfaultwith the composition of some of the advertisements appearing in your issue of yesterday, and recommends that you should lend them to Punch. I quite agree with him, and only regret that whilst he was about it he did not go the whole hog. Why did he not show that in the requisition to Mr. John Williamson a precisely similar blunder occurred : ■o that tome chaw-bacon i« to blame for haying plagiarised such an outlandish piece of composition ? Your correspondent must have also had before his eyes the advertisement in your paper of a wellknown publican, who, although promising to satisfy all who call upon him with a mid-day snack for a shilling singularly enough states " every accommodation required " — that is, of course, wanted. — I am, &c. , GEEEN3 AND BACON.
