Another little improvement, and one unattended by the slightest expense, might so easily be made in the condition of the Children of the Mobility, that we wonder that no benevolent individual has hitherto endeavoured to effect it. A glance at the group now under consideration must convince the most tasteless observer that the youthful personages therein depicted are supporting themselves on their feet in the most ungraceful posture imaginable. Whoever looks at the portraits of the Children of the Nobility, will see that some are represented as standing in the first; others in the second position; while others again are resting, with all the elegance of a Cerito, upon the very tips of their very little feet. Dove-like in everything else, they are as unlike that bird as possible in their attitudes. Why should the young Mobility tread the earth like pigeons, when the opposite mode of standing and of progression is so much more becoming? Before we take leave of these young,--we might say unfledged,--inhabitants of the Rookery, we may remark, that they are much addicted to an amusement greatly conducive to the advantage of the pedestrian, that of displacing the superfluous matter which is apt to accumulate upon crossings. They also pursue an employment which, were it a legal one, we might compare to that of the Solicitor General. Or we might describe its followers as probationers belonging to the Society of Mendicants; an order, it would seem, which Henry VIII. could not entirely suppress. LINES TO MISS MARGARET FLINN. Hadst thou, by Fortune's hest, been born Th' Exclusive Circles to adorn, Thy beauty, like a winged dart, Had pierced my unresisting heart! Those charms should grace the lordly hall, The gay salon, the brilliant ball, Where Birth and Fashion, Rank and Style, Might bask enraptured in thy smile. There, there, methinks I see thee glide, Distinguish'd Persons at thy side; Illustrious Foreigners around, Whose gentle hearts thy spell hath bound. Thee, fair one, meeting haply there, While flutt'ring o'er the gay parterre, This fickle bosom then might be Perchance attun'd to Love and Thee! PLATE II.
