His fond ambition to be thought the friend Of all the great and noble :—such is man." Snip then scampers off in a smart lyrical transition.

“Some make a boast of horses, dogs, and

guns,

And horrible! of harlots!-Some delight They say, in Christianizing all their dress,

Infernal blasphemy, that seems to beg Heav'n's thunders to descend and crush the wretch!

And name each article of foppery After themselves,that all may know them fools."

Mr Shears then makes a double-and falls again, tooth and nail, upon the pride of wealth, in a diatribe against Rothchild, which convinces us that Snip is a bankrupt.

Hitherto our Tailor has been trampling the laity, but after a nap, he arouses himself like a giant refreshed with swipes, and pounds the

parsons:

tions contribute more than all the rest of the enemies of mankind put together, to the virulence of the disease which thus preys upon the vitals communicated to the people of this of the age. The infection was first each individual pair of breeches that country in-dress. It lurks now in issues from his shop. We defy any man to be proud, under three pair per annum; yet here is Satan crying against sin with a vengeance. Kilts are just as bad-nay, worse-that is tartan kilts-for corduroy kilts are favourable, if not to modesty, yet to with top-boots, in which case, we meekness, except indeed when worn know not why, they too generate the epidemic. Therefore-let all tailors

dungs and flints-strike-now and for ever; and henceforth all his sons will be as free from pride as Father Adam.

“Quis tulerit Gracchos de seditione querentes?" The remedy is in your own hands-away with the shears for ever-and the naked truth, to the eternal extinction of pride, will be revealed all over the world.

Having thus expatiated on the Pride of the Age, our breeches-making bard attacks its Pleasures. Ho is at a loss where to begin, so immense is their multitude.

"Innumerable are they, and I leave
The recapitulation of them all;
Observing only those, which on the Age
Produce most sensible effects, and have
The greatest tendency to form the mind,
Its habits and pursuits-to moralize
Or to demoralize the human soul."
After looking about for some mi-
nutes' space, like an owl in moon-

Church!""

people never sat in a church. "Haunt of harlots," indeed! How dare you, you nine-pin, to calumniate the citizens, the citizens' wives, and the citizens' daughters of Modern Athens? "Nursery of Vice!" Why, you Flea, every countenance there is mantling with a harmless happiness, while Murray, or Mackay, is diffusing mirth over the smiling semicircle! "Grand Focus of Iniquity!" Confound your impudence, you Louse, not a householder there who does not pay his taxes, please his wife, educate his children, and go to church twice every Sabbath. "Temple of Satan !" Were Satan, you Dung, to dare to shew his face on the critic row,these two strapping students of divinity would kick him into his native element. "Within its circle all profaneness, impurity, gross impiety, and crime!" You Bug, you must have dined to-day on poisoned cabbage, and the fumes have wrapt your brain in delirium. But list! You must keep a better tongue in your head, else even your profession may not save you from punishment; and with nice adaptation of instrument to criminal, some cit will apply the little toe of his left foot to your posteriors, and make you jerk along Shakspeare square like a bit of Indian rubber.

Or look at the boxes. "Ultimate resource of all the wanton, profligate, and vile!" What do you mean, you miscreant? Why, that beautiful young bride is yet in her honey-moon, and the angel on her right hand is to be married on Thursday to that handsome hussar, whose irresistibles you yourself made, and they do you infinite credit. A hundred, fair and innocent as she, are all shedding such tears as angels weep for

"The gentle lady married to the Moor," so gently personified by the gentle Miss Jarman.

"Fling him ower-fling him ower." Such is the cry of all the gods in the gallery, and Snip plays spin at halfprice from heaven, and loses his life for sixpence.

Having now given an analysis of the Age, a Poem, in Eight books, accompanied with copious extracts, we conclude our article with a hint to Snip to keep to his cabbage. It is fortunate for him that we have happened to be in a good humour-but the skipping of a flea gets teazingand if we catch him again, we shall certainly crack him, or bury him alive in a pinch of snuff-and of all deaths the most painful is that of Maccabaw.
