Timonier. — ' Thiil-horse

454. Le pauvre cheval exprimait ainsi sa joie de retrouver son maître. — It would seeni, if we may crédit the accounts of those who hâve visited Paris, that national peculiarities in France are not confined to human beings. " The omnibus-horses," says Sir Francis Head, "neigh to each other when they meet ; and, instead of being, as might be expected, tired to death of the streets, the Paris air is so fresh, everything is so gay, there is so much for them to look at, and, apparently, wherever they go, and especially -vrherever they stop, there are such innumerable subjects, ail apparently of such vast importance, for them to neigh about, that I really believe they are happier in the streets than at home."

455. Ni hue ni haïe. — Neither gee nor haw ; that is, Neither to the right nor to the left.
