SILENCE, WHERE! Why! “Silence in the Metropolis:” Silence on the railway
is good, but “Silence in the Metropolis,” remember, is excessively
better.
413.--_Friday, January 21, 1853._
INCORRUPTIBLE.--E. J. W.
414.--_Tuesday, January 25, 1853._
DIOGENES his LANTERN NEEDS NO MORE; An honest man is found, the search
is o’er.
Incorruptible.--E. J. W.
415.--_Tuesday, January 25, 1853._
ALPHA the First, and GEORGE are Deceived. No mission but that of misery
and ruin has ever been fulfilled. ’Tis cruel to add falsehood to
injuries. Nor have I ever granted a person power to act for me.
Incorruptible innocence need not shun the light.--Mary Emily,
Hammersmith.
416.--_Wednesday, January 26, 1853._
THE KEY.--It is, and ever was, the favourite of the upright merchant
Prince, not the prude of the coarse knight of the shuttle. Now you have
my real motive of action--“blighted happiness.” Incorruptible.--E. J. W.
417.--_Thursday, January 27, 1853._
A LA CROIX ROUGE.--Victoire; c’est fait; soit. Que nos destinées
s’accomplissent. Incorruptible.--E. J. W.
418.--_Friday, January 28, 1853._
CORRUPTION’S Dead; the victory is ours. “Virtue no longer of vice shall
pardon beg.” Incorruptible.--E. J. W.

TO the HERCULEAN PILLAR (37), or Alpha the First.--The PAPERS of 1843
and 6, destined for Mary Emily, daughter of Daniel Mereweather Ford,
deceased, were INTERCEPTED and transferred to another. Insulting
Oppression reigns to mislead, and is opposed to Justice and Truth. Apply
at 4, Spring-place, Hammersmith.
423.--_Tuesday, February 8, 1853._
G--, Arthur, and E. J. W. are inexcusable in absenting themselves from
the Two Indescribables. Do not leave under a wilful delusion. Fear not.
Apply personally at 4, Spring-place, Hammersmith. All communication is
intercepted in England and abroad, and our reputations calumniated to
render us homeless and friendless. Deceit prevails.
