Tho' St. John Long (I said) is gone,—that curer of all ills,— We still have modest Morison's fam'd Vegetable Pills; Then think upon the Pension List, where stand, in grand array, A splendid train, who take their cash on ev'ry "SETTLING DAY." I own'd that, for the London Cries, we now must ring a knell: But if we've lost the 'Sweep soot-ho!' we've got the dustman's bell; Tho' in the street, it is not meet that folks should preach or pray; Yet Punch may bawl, and singers squall, without a "SETTLING DAY." My Granny grinn'd a ghastly smile, and let my button go; "We'll meet again," she said, "and then I'll tell you all my woe: "You have not heard a twentieth part; but you'll no longer stay." She vanish'd straight; but all too late;—I lost _my_ "SETTLING DAY." ADVERTISEMENT EXTRAORDINARY. A GENTLEMAN, who is about to proceed to New South Wales, on the public account, for fourteen years, is desirous of providing a confidential situation for an active YOUTH, previously to his departure. He is exceedingly light-fingered, and very dexterous in the conveyance of property; and, among his other accomplishments, the advertiser can confidently recommend him for considerable skill in opening locks without the aid of a key. He has been brought up to the _bar_; and is _lineally_ descended from the renowned Jerry Abershaw. Most of his relations have been raised to exalted situations, far above the ordinary crowd; and, indeed, there is little doubt, that the force of his genius, if suffered to take its course, will, in time, procure for him the same degree of elevation. He can refer with confidence for a character to any of the gentlemen composing that respectable body, the Swell Mob Association; and the advertiser will be happy to reply to any inquiries, addressed—PETER PRIG, Esq., at the Stone Jug Hotel, Old Bailey.
