Bringing business, and everything else, to a stand.
Away with Brigades—they're all mighty bad bargains;
Away with those heads that are nothing but tails,
The footsteps for you, boys, to follow, are Dargan's:
And don't proceed backwards in Dr. Machale's!

An advertisement has appeared in nearly all the papers, announcing as a "novel and thrilling attraction" that
"Two ladies will make their ascent on Monday evening next, suspended from the car of the Royal Cremorne Balloon."
There is evidently some mistake in the announcement of this unwomanly and degrading exhibition. We cannot well allow that to be an "ascent" where the parties engaged so completely lower themselves.
