842.--_Monday, June 15, 1857._
IVY.--Your last is an inexhaustible source of happiness. The value of
the types can only be conceived by you. Make the hour 10 to half-past.
First proposal too late for you. Oak leaves early in July.
843.--_Wednesday, June 17, 1857._
QUEEN of HEARTS.--Your conduct is very cruel, and can only inflict pain
and protract suspense; so (if you do not desire that) write and inform
us of your welfare. A sufficiently long absence has only served to
render strong feelings yet stronger, and it is time now to decide on the
point of the compass I steer. You promised to fill the canvas for me;
and I expect at least two feet of fulfilment of promise.
844.--_Thursday, June 18, 1857._
LORELEY.--45, 46, and 47, RECEIVED. Time named for reading does nicely.
Summer tour approved for reasons given. A budget ready and waiting shall
be increased for next time. Quite well, under advice. A bulletin wanted.
Thanks.--Yours, Tomkins.
845.--_Friday, June 26, 1857._
LORELEY.--48, RECEIVED. Bell Primrose. Mr. T. leaves at dawn
28th.--Tomkins.
846.--_Saturday, June 27, 1857._
THE REINDEER SONG.--So little did it appear to be applicable to the
singer of this melody, that no token will be sent unless it is proved by
another advertisement that it really was meant. Through an error this
did not appear last week.
847.--_Tuesday, June 30, 1857._
ICH DIEN.--I now call upon you. Those who could discover the secret in
the most secluded nook in Europe can do anything. Double the signs.
Banc, Signe, Hungary beyond the Theiss.
848.--_Thursday, July 2, 1857._
J. E. R.--Can you express doubt when the height is already won? It is
now the affair of time alone. I saw myself pictured forth in colours too
faithful. I could not desire more.
849.--_Thursday, July 2, 1857._
TO HIDE and SEEK.--I shall get my child, and the London merchant always
has and always will pay 20_s._ in the £. By your deed my reversion is
much improved, and as the trustees are to be changed, it is worth a good
round sum; but you have received, since January 11, 1856, exactly £100
dividends on the Western of France, and if I pay the reward you must
expect----.--E. J. W.
850.--_Tuesday, July 7, 1857._
NICHT EINE MILLION.--Genug für Alles. My honour is pledged, and I am
true, Aber sie ist sehr knapp mit dem Gelde.--Darf ich auf die
----borgen? Die Juden thun es zu hohen zinsen.--Zigeuner.
851.--_Thursday, July 9, 1857._
ALL SERENE.--Tummidge is through. John Dykes, that poor old man, is
dead, &c.
852.--_Friday, July 10, 1857._
LE CHAR L’ATTEND.--Decimals.--Our Swan is not a crow. See how proudly he
rears his snow-white crest, distends his beautiful silvery wings, and
spurns the wave, as he majestically strides forwards.--Cygne.
853.--_Saturday, July 18, 1857._
REVEAL the NAME.
854.--_Tuesday, July 28, 1857._
G. H.--Luke 15th chap. 10 and 16--to 24.
855.--_Thursday, July 30, 1857._
