The Inconvenience of a London Hansom. —In getting in, you knock your hat in. In getting out, you knock your hat off. In getting in our out, the rubs are about 100 to 1 in favor of your coat tail taking a proof impression of the wheel. If two of you get iu, the vehicle is so small that you have to sit almost in each other’s laps. If you wish to speak to the driver, you have to throw your head back, and nearly dislocate your neck before you can communicate with him through that miserable little trapdoor in the roof. If you direct the cabman to lower the glass blind, it is advisable to hold yourself far back to fear the descending portcullis should fall on the bridge of your nose and do it serious damage.
