At that well-known period, "a long time ago," in a country village, situate in a remote part of Fancyland, there dwelt a prudent pair, who were never at odds with each other. In 'act , so exemplary were they in their marriage state, that had the Dunmow Prize of a Flitch of Bacon been established in their time, there can be no doubt they would have obtained kt. .As it,wat, they were rewarded for the singularity of their Vapiiiiies 110111 , 4 Vr6g6nt, (if .

The reader of these lines will at once exclaim:—" Oh, how I should like a Fairy Gift like that!" But Fairy Gifts are only 'Citable as the possessors know how to make a proper use of theft.. Itiehes, without content, are but a sotirce of misery god ; Might be better to be poor, for as a great elnfl f;efiltlN 1, ,1 1;;;i and content,. Is rich and rich enough." It is not to be supposed, from thia digression. that the old couple in question made a bad use of their 0614611 Eggs—far from it. They were as exemplary in prosperity as they had been in adversity; but a new , -eneration sprang up, and they had Three Grandsons—two of them, adopting the manner s o f the times, became Vast Ttittut le.k" The third resembl e d his Grandfather; dnd wig Congidered by big brothers " rather slow."

THE TRUE HISTORY OF LITTLE 80-PEEP. Comprising the Incidents of the Pantomime. Little 80-Peep was a pretty Shepherdess, residing in that beautiful place called Arcadia. She was a very eood girl, but hail one fault; and that was, she would often fall asleep in the day-time, when she ought to have been tending her sheep. Her godmother, who was a Fairy, was very angry with her, and tried to Correct her, but in vain; till one day, a wolf, who lived is a caters hear this beautiful place, having fallen 111 love with to-Peep end been rejected by her, out of revenge resolved to steal her cheep, ettt off their tails, and hang them Up en a tree to art lity-Peep, as usual, having f a llen asl e ep, remitted the *dealing of her sheep a very e as y ma tt er f or t h e 'wolf said hill Companions. While she was sl ee pi ng , h er go d- Maher showed to her, in a dream, the con sequence o f le Aflame ; and th en there appeared to her a group of beautiful shepherdesses, who were living and playing, and dancing in a grove of laburnums, and were happy as the days were long, because in their time they had never been idle. When Bo- Peep woke out of this dream she found her sheep had been taken away, so she set . out determined to find them ,• When goin g a l ong what should she see but the tails of all Elbe then her Poor sheep h ang i ng up, side by s i de, on a tree to dry. met with a cow h er d, t o w h om th e wo lf h a d g i ven the charge of her sheep, and with whom she drove a bargain for getting them back, tails and all. When she had accom plished this, s h e returned home with them, where, assisted by some kindly shepherdesses, she contrived to tack each of theins tails of her Poor sheep in its place again. Her lover, W a Young ehepnerd, undertook to watch the flock all night, as 80-Peep was tired and wanted to g o to bed. The cheep being all carefully put into the fold, and watched by Colin, Bo- Peep prepared to retire for the night ; but when /by she had laid down, the wicked wolf appeared to carry her off force ---dragged her out of her bed, and, with the aid of his companions, conquered Colin, notwithstanding 80-Peep's favehrlte black Rain, and h er dog Lion, came to defend their mistress. In this extremity, she called upon her godmother is help her, w h o immediately appeared in all her fair glory; changed Colin into Harlequin, 80-Peep into Columbine, the wicked Wolf into Pantaloon, his Cowherd into Clown. She then told 80-P eep, that if, after twelve months, she would correct h erseelf of going to sleep in the day-time, she would consent her marriage with Co li n. It is needless to add, Little 80-Peep did correct beraelf—was married to Colin, and afterwards lived like the other ts hepherdesses—as happy as the days were long. TRANSFORMATION. Mr. Wilson. Mr. J.

Frenchman at Liverpool did land, And 'mongst his friends wishing to be grand, e asked them to his rooms to see How rich he lived, and have a cup of tea. Our hero ordered the host of the hotel To have the table spread right well; • But :Monsieur's knowledge of our tongue was small, The host or•Frefieh knew none at all ; In ordering tea it is not strange A blunder should theft plans derange. "Messieur 800 l my party noombers twenty-three, So get von parcel of good tea— The tea frem the—the—Fire—that's the name— You know vat I do want, so it's all the same." The landlord bowed and nodded an Assent, And :o the nearest erocer went : - "A half a pound of your best tea; Give it me strong and - flavoured well," said ha. Homeward he bent his joyous way, Thinking he'd make the Frenchman pay. The ,riends all came, and all sat down to tea„ Determined to enjoy it merrily ; But fate destroyed their hopes : 'tie very sad' To tell the tale, but the tea was bad. 'Twas shocking bad, weak, ta-teless stuff, Although the price was high enough. Some tried to smile, but they were few: Gloom spread around the party—all looked blue. The unconscious host around the table Smiled, and served each as well as he was able. When, in a voice which all his friends amazes, Our hero cried. "This tea's..not Blase's." The landlord said, "It is not Blase's I confess, But still it cost five shillings—nothing less." The Frenchman cried, " You'll rain me, To give five shillings for such tea, When half as much tea would suffice Of Blase's, and cost half the price." The landlord spoke not—he bowed his head, When Tomkins rose, and thus he said— " This would indeed have been a pleasant treat . If we'd had tea from Blase's, Parker-street. Contempt for rear host e'en all most utter ; ' • Perchance ho don't ure holly's butter. However, let's be merry, put on smiling faces — When wt want TEA. we'll go to BLASE'S."
