London, January 22.  It is amazing (a gentleman said to
Foote, the other day, in a large and mixed company) that you
can lose the Aristophanes in the character of Punch; when
Foote as readily made answer, that it was upon the same
motive that he quitted the virtuous Patriot for the slavish
Courtier, namely, for money to support his extravagance.
