A WOLLIT or Asoss-Mr. Whalley has written to
Mayfair stating that among other amusepoents he has
taken to poetr). Bo pahaps now the honourable
member will be less prove. Judged by Ma maiden

poetical license. There can be no doubt se to the

of promise case last Wednesday, who has had to pay
coo, gave ma his reason for not fulfilling his agree-
ment, that "be wanted an angel with £2,000." We

requireme• ta. An angel is generally supposed to be
an inhabitant of heaven, and if induced to visit these
parts, seat on earth would she want with £2,000! For
our own part, we should °onside: any girl with that
amount of money a perfect angel.
