TO MRS. H. Thou sweet, to whom all bend the knee, No wonder men run after thee; There’s something in a name, perhaps, For Honey’s often good for chaps. A MR. GRAHAM has appeared at the Surrey. He is reported to be a very chaste and clever actor. If so, he certainly will not suit the taste of Mr. Davidge’s patrons. How they have tolerated Wilson, Leffler, and Miss Romer so long, we are utterly at a loss to divine. It must be, that “music hath charms.” We are authorised to state that Rouse of the Eagle Tavern is not the Rous who was lately returned for Westminster. THE REAL AND THE IDEAL; OR, THE CATASTROPHE OF A VICTORIA MELO-DRAMA. Berthelda.—Sanguine, you have killed your mother!!! Fruitwoman.—Any apples, oranges, biscuits, ginger-beer! (Curtain falls.) QUALIFICATIONS FOR AN M.P. We give the following list of qualifications for a member of parliament for Westminster, as a logical curiosity, extracted from a handbill very liberally distributed by Captain Rons’s party, during the late contest:— 1st. Because “he is brother to the Earl of Stradbroke.” 2nd. Because “his family have always been hearty Conservatives.” 3rd. Because “they have been established in Suffolk from the time of the Heptarchy.” 4th. Because “he entered the navy in 1808.” 5th. Because “he brought home Lord Aylmer in the Pique, in 1835.” 6th. Because “he ran the Pique aground in the Straits of Belleisle.” 7th. Because “after beating there for eleven hours, he got her off again.” 8th. Because “he brought her into Portsmouth without a rudder or forefoot, lower-masts all sprung, and leaking at the rate of two feet per hour!” ergo, he is the fittest man for the representative of Westminster.—Q.E.D. THE ENTIRE ANIMAL. LORD LONDONDERRY, in a letter to Colonel Fitzroy, begs of the gallant member to “go the whole hog.” This is natural advice from a thorough bore like his lordship. PUNCH, OR THE LONDON CHARIVARI. VOL. 1. [pg 13] JULY 24, 1841. A MODEST METHOD OF FORMING A NEW BUDGET SO AS TO PROVIDE FOR THE DEFICIENCY OF THE REVENUE. A building (with the words More Ton Dyer) and a sail forming the letter P oor Mr. Dyer! And so this gentleman has been dismissed from the commission of the peace for humanely endeavouring to obtain the release of Medhurst from confinement. Two or three thousand pounds, he thought, given to some public charity, might persuade the Home Secretary to remit the remainder of his sentence, and dispose the public to look upon the prisoner with an indulgent eye.
