The audiences are curiously alike, except that the Edinburgh audience has a quicker sense of humor and is a little more genial. No disparagement to Boston in this, because I consider an Edinburgh audience perfect. I trust, my dear Eugenius, that you have recognized yourself in a certain Uncommercial, and also some small reference to a name rather dear to you?
As an instance of how strangely something comic springs up in the midst of the direst misery, look to a succeeding Uncommercial, called "A Small Star in the East," published to-day, by the by. I have described, with exactness, the poor places into which I went, and how the people behaved, and what they said.
Similarly on this same head, the Uncommercial underwent discomfiture from a Wiltshire labourer: a simple, fresh-coloured farm-labourer, of eight-and-thirty, who at one time stood beside him looking on at new arrivals, and with whom he held this dialogue: UNCOMMERCIAL. Would you mind my asking you what part of the country you come from? WILTSHIRE. Not a bit. Theer!
I believe he was wholly ignorant of my Uncommercial individuality, and consequently of my immense Uncommercial importance. UNCOMMERCIAL. These are a very fine set of people you have brought together here. MORMON AGENT. Yes, sir, they are a VERY fine set of people.
Literally speaking, I am always wandering here and there from my rooms in Covent-garden, London now about the city streets: now, about the country by-roads seeing many little things, and some great things, which, because they interest me, I think may interest others.

Let me halt on my Uncommercial road, to throw a passing glance on some funeral solemnities that I have seen where North American Indians, African Magicians, and Tonga Islanders, are supposed not to be.
Superintendent asks how long are they going to work at those bags? How long? First Witch repeats. Going to have supper presently. See the cups and saucers, and the plates. 'Late? Ay! But we has to 'arn our supper afore we eats it! Both the other witches repeat this after First Witch, and take the Uncommercial measurement with their eyes, as for a charmed winding- sheet.
Carter's aristocratic and exclusive notions. Mrs. Carter was a woman of untiring industry, most capable in all household matters, but superbly uncommercial. Having got the management into his own hands, and having entirely won his mother's confidence, Will was beginning to see a gleam of light ahead of him. If he could keep Mr.
