MDCCCXLVII. and MDCCCXLVIII.
TO THE PUBLIC.
" Look on this picte.re, aid on this."—Shakspeare.
As now another year is passed away,
MOSES and SON their wonted tribute pay;
And freely own, with gratitude sincere,
The many favours of another year.
Oft have their warm acknowlederneets been made,
For 'vast success, and glofious public aid ;
But never did such staunch support appear,
As that which honoureie the departed year.
Spring, summer, autumn, winter, bear fresh proof,
Of crowding throngs, 'oeneath their trading root.
When January's frosts were keenly felt,
Thousands with ..LOSES liberally dealt ;
And Winter Overcoats. te suit the cold,
Were purchase's at their Warehouse million-fold.
In February's month. and hlust'rinp March,
The pablle 90.ught the Emporium's lofty aroh.
In fickle April, and in milder May,
MOS.MS arid SON'iii Spring dresses bore the sway.
In phsaituat June, and changeable July,
Vast Ilk nititrides were daily seen to buy ;
And such nupporters failed not to remember
The City Mart in August and September.
Anel. in October's month did thousands press,
At
.3gogEs, Mart for matchless Autumn dress.
I'adull November, and December, too,
NOSES and SON were ever kept in view.
.I.nd thus did new encouragements appear
throughout the circle of the by-past year :
'Net only in attire, but boots and shoes,
And also in the fare which ladies use ;
And throngs of buyers might we daily see,
Obtaininlng first-class Hats at Eighty-three.
In Hosiery and matchless outfits too,
The trade at MOSES' Warehouse daily grew.
The glorious marks of favour thus presented.
Proclaim the by-gone year unprecedented.
'Tv-as truly pleasing to behold a throng,
Crowding the spacieus Warehouse all day long ;
W bile all the current coins, with constant Jingle,
"Amid the busy stir were heard to mingle.
Nor was it any sight to cause a flown,
While orders for bespoke were putting down.
Swift went the knibs, and orders swiftly took,
And very swiftly filled each order-book.
The Cutting-room at MOSES' mart has been,
" A cutting sight"—an ever-busy scene.
No time for idleness—no lengthy leisure,
Could here be had for cutter, shears, or measure :
.All was activity in every part,
And business "riled the roast" at MOSES' Mart.
Though scarcity of money roused alarm.
MOSES and SON sustained no trading harm.
No ; on the contrary, as people found,
The roil value of a current pound,
They flocked to MOSES' Mart, assured that there,
Un'saatched economy is brought to bear.
Wlaat ROW remains ? A task devolves oa MOSES,
N ow Bighteen Forty-seven for over closes.
neat heartily do Messrs. MOSES tender
'Their thanks for what a generous public render.
But thanks ten thousand times they might repeat,
And leave the task of thanking incomplete.
-Tat, happily, they've more that they can state,
And thus they're led to Eighteen Forty-eight.
In Eighteen Forty-eight they mean t• steer
Beyond the bounds of each succeeding year.
The reeeat purchases which they have made,
Will add new benefits to all their trade.
When all the markets wore depressed, they bought
For moderate sums their cloths superbly wrought.
They saw the opportunity, and now,
A most immense redaction they allow.
Such are the benefits which hero await
The purchaser of Eighteen Forty-eight.
May MOSES and the public ever be,
On pleasing terms of trading unity ;
May both the ituyers and the sellers find,
That all their mutual interests are combined ;
And may the friends of MOSES (small and great)
Enjoy, in every possible estate,
A. happy year in Eighteen Forty-eight.

WATER JOKES IN GARDENS.—At Euston, in Ox-

man, were the most artistic water ingenuities it has been
our lot to meet a description of as existing in this
country. They even drew down the marked approba-
tion
of royalty itself. On approaching the spot a venera-
ble hermit rose from the ground, and, after entertaining
one with a " neat and appropriate" speech, sank down
again like a Jack-in- a-bux. There was a small rocky island
in the midst of a lake, which was full of watery tricks.
The visitor was politely requested to walk up and view
this spot : and after satisfying his curiosity, and pro-

having for its object his legs, another his loins,' and ano-
ther his head. After this funny reception, he was
conducted to look at a spaniel hunting a duck, by
the force of water—the automata diving and pursuing,
each other by turns. Beyond was the grotto; a hedge
of sparkling jets of water rose fror? the ground to guard
it, mimic cascades foamed down in tiny cataracts, and
countless streams shot up, end appeared to lose them-
selves by being caught in their return, and not suffered
to fall down again. Here, too, a nightingale discoursed
very liquid music, and arched jets of water played with
one another, and now and then with the visitor, all hope
of egress being destroyed by the sudden pouring down
of a heavy rain in the doorway. The sport which this
caused was thought to be well worth the wetting. Pro-
bably the magnificent- gardens at Chatsworth are the
only places where anything at all similar to the above is
now to be found. There are some practical wet jokes
even here; and country bumpkins, in their native
innocence, may be found willing to pay a visit to the
weeping tree. The visit is never repeated.--Chambers'
Edinburgh Journal.
DEATH or A VETERAN.—Captain Robert Hayley
jarld. 8.N., the last survivor of the battle of Bunker's
Hill, and one of the few survivors of the glorious let of
June, expired on the 29th uit., at his residence at Chel-
tenham. He had been in eleven general actions with
1 the enemy's fleets, besides cutting out 'vessels, and
b fighting with the army on ahem.
