NEW MUSIC.

FIVE SONGS—" Pity poor Time;" " Some One who
loves;" " Encore ! a Bottle more; or, Down I go if I
la yo the Khoclar ;" "Mrs. C.'s Curtain Lectures;"
and " Oh, Cruel Jeames, of Berkeley-square."
" Pray, now, buy some ; I love a ballad in print
a'-life ; for then we are sure they are true ;" a quotation
applicable enough to the songs written by Mr. Beuler,
fur they have, in general, a deal of truth in them, and
so, " pray, now, buy some." " Pity poor Time "is a
neat comic song; in which Time is made to complain of
having so much left him to do by everybody. "Some
One who Loves" is a sentimental ballad, with sensible
words. "Encore ! a Bottle more !" is a well-told comic
story, founded on fact. " Mrs. C.'s Curtain Lectures"
are entertaining. And " Oh, Cruel Jeames," is a bur •
lc sque pathetic ballad with a really very pretty tune.
The title-pages, as well as. the songs, are amusing.
On that of " Time" the word "Pity " is formed of
hearts, and" Time," of hour-glasses, clocks, and watches.
Below, as a motto, is "Time and tide will wait for no
man," which is illustrated by a representation of Time
as a common labourer to the world, working with his
scythe, pursued by a traveller " behind Time" and before
Time; for "pa.st Time," King Canute is seen scudding
from the "sportive waves," and underneath is the fol-
lowing :—" Once upon a time, King Canute, to reprove
his flatterers who told him he could do anything, com-
manded the 'flowing tide to retire ! But it wouldn't !
And because it wouldn't, it has served .as a timely re-
proof to flattering time-servers many times from that
time to this." Some 'of-the letters of the title of "En-
core I a Bottle more," are formed of bottles, and some
are reeling about as tipsy as possible ; and a " swan-
nicked" bottle is engraved with wings, as a representa-
tion of "champagne flying about." The word " Berke.
ley," on the title of Cruel Jeames," is formed of
knockers, and cruel Jeames himself, as a winged Mer-
cury, is shown springing from the earth with scrips in
one hand and computes in the either, evidently intent
on measuring the moon, which, by the way, seems
terribly alarmed, for future railroads. At the bottom is
a pair shears in full cut, entitled "Jeames's Railway
shears." All the songs appear effective, and, with the
exception of " Mrs. Caudle's Lectures," the melodies are
new and expressive of the subjects.

ADDRESS FROM THE INHABI-
TANTS OF WINDSOR TO HIS ROYAL HIGH-
NESS PRINCE ALBERT.
The following is a copy of the address (agreed to at a
vestry meeting, held on Thursday last,) to his Royal High-

of the poor of Windsor:--

the inhabitants generally of this loyal borough.

Highness our sincere and grateful acknowledgments for the
spontaneous generosity of your Royal Highness, in graciously

ment thereof.
