And you'll fairly earn the hearty thanks of all;

For the young City Children, doomed to rummage

In dim alleys foul as Styx,

Never else may know the rapture of a "scrummage,"

Or "a slashing drive for Six!"


A Desirable "Raikes'" Progress.—In the direction of concession to the overworked and underpaid Post-Office employés.


APPRECIATIVE.
