Gone is the friend that in a phrase

The "Common Sense" of things could settle,

That with a stroke could slay a craze,

And folly lash with flail of nettle.

Who now will thunder in the Times

Against the Socialistic Rad's tone?

Who'll flout the cant and check the crimes

Of him, the all-surviving GLADSTONE?


Military Tournament at Islington successful as ever. All the glory of war, as Mr. JORROCKS observed in his lecture, with one-half per cent. of its danger. Under command of Major TULLY. For seats, apply per Tully-phone.
