But one thing is absolutely certain, and that is, that _A Village Priest_ will never be _Called Back_. Perhaps _L'Abbé Constantin_ may now have a chance. Eminently good, but not absolutely saintly. Is there any chance of the _Abbé_ being "translated?" * * * * * [Illustration: THE SMELLS. (_EDGAR ALLAN POE "UP TO DATE."_)] I. Look on London with its Smells-- Sickening Smells!
