SEFTON.

"These gentlemen (the Tory party) can really get no sleep at night, owing to their burning anxiety to enfranchise their fellow men."—Vide Sir Wilfrid Lawson's Speech.

NOT a snore was heard, not a slumberous note,

For my Lords are too awfully worried;

Not a Peer but bewails the Bill's sad lot,

Tho' he feels that it musn't be hurried.

They think of it sadly, at dead of night,

The thing in their mind's eye turning,

By the somewhat foggy, misty light

In their noble bosoms burning.
