London, December 7.  A few nights since Lady Bridget L--
being in the stage box at Drury Lane Theatre, when the
comedy of The Hypocrite was performed, in which there are
several passages of Latin, Lady B--- applied to a macaroni,
who sat behind her, for an explanation.  The fine gentleman
told her that it was dog Latin, and that he could not
explain it.  It is very strange, replied Lady B---, that a
puppy should not understand his own language.
