That's true of us cock-a-whoop "Civilised Races,"

Who hold that our "Influence" must find its "Sphere,"—

At the cost of the poor yellow-skins or black faces.

We are so much alike, 'twere sheer cant to upbraid,

So I mean to stand-by—and look after my Trade!


NAMES FOR OTHER NAMES.

The London County Council having considered the propriety of changing the name of Great George Street, Westminster, we append a list of localities that possibly may, later on, attract their attention. In each case we have appended a suggested new name, chosen in the customary arbitrary and (except in the last specimen) meaningless fashion:—

Trafalgar Square—Water-squirt Place.

Piccadilly—Snooks' Avenue.
