'T. S.—T. S. never sleeps, never slumbers even,
never so much as closes an eye ; T. S.'has always a thirst
for news ;'is always eager to receive, eager to impart it.
The oldest frequenter of a Pall Mall club window never
during the course of his life heard a millionth part of the
news which comes to T. S. in a day. The most inveterate
gossip of a country town never lived long enough to give
utterance to a thousandth part of the rumours which T. S.
spreads abroad in the course of an hour. And the character
of its news is varied and miscellaneous. The capitulation
of the Emperor at Sedan, and the result of the "rattling
little mill " between the Tutbury Pet the Brighton
Bruiser ; ,the speech delivered by Mr. Bright at Birming-
ham, and the fact that Claribel is scratched for the Liver-
pool Steeplechase ; the birth of another grandson to the
Queen, and the horrible death of a lunatic—all this news
comes pouring into T. S. at the same time, and struggles
for priority and precedence. Hither comes a mysterious
whisper from the dusky Ind relative to grey shirtings and
