It is clear that in ` No Thoroughfare ` the latter gentleman has had the lion`s share of the labour, whatever of lion`s share may fall to him besides. Mr. Dickens`s portion is merely incidental, though some of his touches are surpassing fine and unmistakably marked. Mr. Collins`s superb inventive faculty shows itself throughout, though under a little restriction here unfolding, doubling up, coiling, and uncoiling in its brilliant, baffling, serpentine fashion. And the result is exactly such as might be expected. Mr. Wilding is a little over-done, but full of humor and Joey Ladle, the cellar-man who insists on being a good pecking-machine is admirable. This is one of Joey`s happiest deliverances : ` Gentlemen, it is all wery well for you that has been accustomed to take your wine into your systems by the conwivial channel of your throttles, to put a lively face upon it but I says, ` I have been accustomed to take my wine in at the pores of the skin, and took that way, it acts different.` ` But we mustn`t say more on the matter, at once for our own sake and that of both writers and readers.
