POETRY.

PARODY.*
To be sung to the Air of " Who kill'd Cock Robin?"

Who struck Sir HLTDSON ?
Says LAS CASES, 'Twas I,
" And 'twas time I should fly;

" I ran from HuDsos."

Who saw him run ?
" I, says the Maid,

" Saw him scamper, afraid ;
" I SAW him run."

What did Sir HUDSON ?
" He, with an umbrella,
" Ran after the fellow—
" Strait follow'd Sir IhrDsom."

What happen'd next ?
" A fellow stood by,
44 Who saw LAS CASES fly,
"And he stop'd Sir liuDsoN."

What did he say ?
" The Boy you shan't kill,
" Let him run where will,
" I'll save LAS CASES."

Where's now LAS CASES ?
He's hid in the dark,
With the other sly spark,
Afraid of the Law, Sir.

'What step is proper ?
The Law should both fix on,
And send them to BRIX'ON
To step on the Min, Sir.

* Vide The Morning. Chronicle of this day.

BIRMINGHAM, OCT. 30.—Late last night some
of the inhabitants of this town were surprised at
hearing the discharge of a few rockets and old
gun-barrels, but took little or no notice of it,
supposing that it was some of our ire-work
gentry who were preparing for the sth of No-
vember. However, upon inquiry, it turned out
that a few of our would-be Reformers—or others,
forgetting themselves (of whom there is, how-
ever, a very small number among us, most of our
working population being pretty well employed,
and leaving the arena of politics to those who
are too idle to earn their bread), were celebrating
the liberation of that very moral and worthy
character, that pattern of conjugal fidelity, and
of every gentlemanly action, HENRY HUNT,
whose period of incarceration in Ilchester Gaol
expired yesterday. We have little doubt but
that the chiefs tof the clan in this town, and
a few others of the same stamp, will endea-
vour to get up something very imposing in ho-
nour of the occasion; but you may rest assured
that the Mover of these scene is so little regard-
ed, that but few, if any, respectable persons will
take part in it.

BRITISH GALLERY.—This admirable Nursery
of British Genius opened yesterday to gratify the
amateurs with a view of the copies which have
been made from original pictures of the great
foreign Artists, by English Students. Many of
the original pictures sent for this laudable pur-
pose belong to his MAJESTY, others to Sir
ABRAHAM HUME, Earl IIOWE, Sir SIMON CLARKE,
and some Nvell-known Patrons of the fine
arts. The pictures consist of works of RUBENS,
CARLO DOLCE, TITIAN, TINTORETTI, G. Pous-
SIN, TENIERS, &C. &c. Several of the Copies of
these fine Originals, by the Students, display
great taste and skill, and we sincerely regret that
the want of room prevents us from noticing their
respective merits.—The Rooms were opened gra-
tuitously, and Mr. YOUNG was in attendance,
with his usual vigilance and courtesy.

The Rev. WILLIAM COCKBURN, A.M., is ap-
pointed Dean of York.
" WATCHES WERE MADE TO Go."— QuicK,
the Comedian, who is, we are happy to say, ac-
cording to his old joke, still quick, was, in his
usual walk about Islington, recently robbed of
his watch. The alarm was given, but net having
been in this case quick enough, the thief escaped.
On a light being brought, it appeared that the
works of the watch had, in consequence of the
force used, been detached from their covering,
for the latter was found near the spot by some
one, who presented it to the owner, saying,
66 Here's the case, Sir."—" Ay," said QUICK,
taking it " and a d-- bad case it is for me!"
