DOWN BY THE DOCKS.—Down by the Docks, the
pawnbroker lends money on Union• Jack pocket-
handkerchiefs, on watches with little ships pitching fore
and aft on the dial, on telescopes, nautical instruments in
cases, and such-like. Down by the Docks, the apothecary
sets up in business on the wretchedest scale—chiefly on lint
and plaster for the strapping of wounds—and with no bright
bottles, and with no little drawers. Down by the Docks,
the shabby undertaker's shop will bury you for next to
nothing, after the Malay or Chinaman has stabbed you for
nothing at all : so you can hardly hope to make a cheaper
end. Down by the Docks, anybody drunk will quarrel
with anybody drunk or sober, and everybody else will have
a hand in it, and on the shortest notice you may revolve in
a whirlpool of red shirts, shaggy beards, wild heads of
hair, bare tattooed arms, Britannia's daughters, malice,
mud, maundering, and madness. Down by the Docks,
scraping fiddles go inthe public-houses all day long, and,
shrill above their din and all the din, rises the screoee
winhgo
of innumerable parrots brought from foreign
