A TRIO.

[Air—"Three Blind Mice.">[

Three new peers!

Good ev'ry one!

A. Borthwick, Plunket, H. de Wums,

Are all conservatively chums,

We hail with cheers in our col-lums

The Three New Peers!


Query from a Correspondent.—Please, Sir, can you tell me where I can obtain a work entitled "Balmy on the Crumpet"? I have heard it frequently mentioned, but up to now have searched the lists at the British Museum and (with the exception of the works of one "Balmez, a Theologian,") all in vain. I presume the work in question is a treatise on some department of the baking industry. Is there also another work entitled Balmy on the Muffin? In fact, I should very much like to collect all the treatises of this author on bakery.—Yours, Old Rowley.
