JOSEPH MAPPIN'S PORCELAIN HANDLE
TABLE KNIFE ; Registered June 5, 1847, No. 43,501; is
the most useful and chaste article ever produced, combining ele-
gance, economy, and durability. It far surpasses ivory in its splen-
did appearance, and is 50 per cent. cheaper. It is particularly re-
commended for its purity and sweetness—a little soap and water
restores its first splendid appearance. It will not break with falling,
u ,elther will it be the least affected by time or service. All these ad-
.rages combined in this article, which together with the low price
which the article is produced, form a tout-ensemble never before
attained.

riE MEETING OF PARLIAMENT
A LIKELY GUESS AT TILE QUEEN'S SPEECH.
My Lords and Gentlemen,

R I don't remember,
aving addressed you in November ;
Rut really l'm compelled to call you early,
To settle th s commercial hurly burly.

And having done so, my sincere advice is,
That you'll at once do something for the crisis.
It Pains me much (and that's a plain confession)
To Witness such a panic and depression.
But never mind—on you I nowrely,
And matters may be better by-and-bye.
I Must allude, before my lecture closes,
• To What I've noticed at the Mart of AIMS.

MOSES and SON have struggled to impart
A counteracting influence at their Mart ;
Much has been done to benefit my people,
At MOSES' warehouse, facing Aidgate steeple.
Cheap dress incalculable good has done ;
And who in this can equal MOSES ?—None !
I feel assured that MOSES' moderate prices,
Relieve the burdens of the present crisis.
And hence, I say, before the session cleses,
Propose a vote of thanks to Messrs. MOSES.
