(French, 1808 - 1879) - Title
- - You know the fat deputy in front, who makes 25 Francs per day. Today I read in the paper that a commission was given to him. - A comission like that generally pays 75 cents, if there is no reply. This would mean that makes 25 Francs and 15 Sous today. What luck!(- Tu connais bien l'gros député d'en face, qu'est représentant à 25 francs par jour, eh ben j'ai lu c'matin de dessus l'journal qu'on l'a chargé d'une commission! - Une commission ça s'paye généralement soixante quinze centimes sans la réponse encore..... ça lui aura donc fait ce jour là 25 francs 15 sous, qu'elle chance!), number 28 from the series Sketches of the Day (Croquis du jour)
