OR, PUNCH BLOWING HIS OWN TRUMPET,
The general National feelings of the British Public are proverbially interested in every endeavour to obtain “a blind alley, and no Fantoccini.” Compelled by the New Police Act to move on, and so present our high tragic composition by small instalments (in effecting which, nevertheless, regard has been had—This parenthesis to be continued in our next), we hope for such kind consideration as may be due, when it is remembered that the law for the out-door PUNCH and the law for the in-door PUNCH is not one and the same law. Oh, law!
On SATURDAY, the 28th of AUGUST, will be presented,
(Interspersed with Drum and Mouth Organ),
PUNCHINUZZI,
BY EGO SCRIBLERUS, ESQ.

The following Opinions on the Actable qualities of Punchinuzzi, are selected from a vast mass of similar notices.
“This ere play ‘ud draw at ony fare.”—The late Mr. Richardson.
“This happy poetic drama would be certain to command crowded and elegant courts.”—La Belle Assemblée.
