Polly. Authors, actors,and artists who are suffering from the effects of too much literary pastryin the shape of puffs might compile an instructive work, and name itThe Folly of Praise. A gin-sling does not suit a broken arm. It may be easy to cook accounts, but it is a very hard matter to digestthem. The Orange River has its correlative, Lake Leman. How odd, yet how appropriate it would be, to go to a tournament ina tilt-cart! Some people like to argue in a vicious circle ; we prefer to talk in avirtuous square. If you jump at conclusions, you may take a leap in the dark. It is quite possible to have a brown study in a green room. What corresponds to an Archdeacon ? A cunning priest.

THE SEWING-MACHINE. Draper. A most Wonderful Invention, indeed, Mom, and it really Execotes the Work so Efficiently and Quickly, that, ponmy Word, I think theres nothing left for the Ladies to do now but to Improve their Intellects ! BUMBLES COUNTERBLAST AGAINST CENTRA-LISATION. Did you ever! Well I never!

What becomes of our self-government, if the coals we re thus hauled overBy your Farnalls, and such fellows, as lives on the rates in clover PChaps as has their salaries paid em out o your pocket, and mine, Sir,And yet comes to cheek the guardians, all along o paupers whine, Sir. Mustnt do this, Mustnt do that, and Must do as youre told, tis—Change the water in the casuals baths, and try how hot and cold tis!Mustnt shut paupers up at night, without bells, gas, or fuel!C
