No bygone Easter holiday
E'er saw so fine a sight!
Our village Belle with anyone
Dares now to make comparison.
Fair nymph, this Easter fun done,
With proudest County Toast, though fair,
You may compete or charms compare
With the haughtiest "Pride of London!"
Astounding Report.—There is no foundation whatever for the report of the resignation of Lord Herschell. It probably arose from some incautious and slangy person speaking of him in his office of Lord Chancellor as having "got the sack." Obviously the Wool-sack was intended.
