LION AND LAMB.
["I think that when we consider an Opposition, in which Lord Salisbury and Mr. Chamberlain pacifically sit down—or lie down, together, we need not, ourselves, feel very sensitive on the subject of homogeneity."—Mr. Gladstone at the F. O. Liberal Meeting.]
Solly had a little Lamb,
From Brummagem you know!
And wheresoever Solly went
That Lamb was bound to go.
The Lion and the Lamb in fact!
And what could be more jolly?
Yet some do whisper that—sometimes—
The Lamb seems leading Solly.
"What Ho, Apothecary!"—Last week the Earl of Bessborough was announced as having arrived at Bessborough, Pilltown, Ireland. What an appropriate spot for erecting an Irish Apothecaries' Hall! What is Lord Bessborough's family name? Is it The O'Cockle?
