THE ENGLISH CARICATURISTS, AND KING CRUIKSHANK. If I wanted an excuse for being tedious, I could not have a better title than "The Origin of Caricature " to head my paper. A fanciful friend of mine, who once challenged a Heidelberg student who had struck him at a beer commerce?a grand AlschiecC's commerce, in fact?was the next morning visited by a deputation of the Swabian Chor, headed by their captain, who reviewing the quarrel, commenced with the creation of Adam.

But the better known works of. the middle-age caricaturists are those distorted stone heads, which still vomit water from the roofs of cathedral towers or old decorated churches: eye-balls goggling, tongues lolling, levator muscles pulling and twisting with a coarse, homely, downright fun, which would have qualified th...
