They pervade all classes - Affecting instance of Colonel Snobley.) We have all read a statement (the authenticity of which I take leave to doubt entirely for upon what calculations I should like to know is it founded?) - we have all I say been favoured by perusing a remark that when the times and necessities of the world call for a Man that individual is found. Thus at the French Revolution (which the reader will be pleased to have introduced so early) when it was requisite to administer a corrective dose to the nation Robespierre was found; a most foul and nauseous dose indeed and swallowed eagerly by the patient greatly to the latter's ultimate advantage: thus when it became necessary to kick John Bull out of America Mr. Washington stepped forward and performed that job to satisfaction: thus when the Earl of Aldborough was unwell Professor Holloway appeared with his pills and cured his lordship as per advertisement &c.&c. Numberless instances might be adduced to show that when a nation is in great want the relief is at hand; just as in the Pantomime (that microcosm) where when CLOWN wants anything - a warming-pan a pump-handle a goose or a lady's tippet - a fellow comes sauntering out from behind the side-scenes with the very article in question.
