BRISTOL.

Much sensation was excited here on Saturday,
in consequence of a letter received by the Mayor
from an officer of the Corporation, now in London,
stating, almost positively, on the authority of Mr.
Ellice, that Earl Grey had resigned. It is supposed
the joyful news had so operated upon the writer of
!he letter (who is a Tory), that his exuberant spi-
rits could only find vent in rhyme; at least the fol-
lowing epistle was picked up in the Commercial
Rooms on Saturday morning, supposed to be
dropped from a Magisterial pocket :

AIR.—" Run, neighbours, run, all London is quadrilling it.

Run, W r, run, tell all your friends and neighbours
Earl Grey and the Reformers are left in the lurch ;
Now is the time to put a damper on their labours,
And save from their clutches our poor old church.
If Vyvyan is with you, tell him to be wide awake—
His place by the mail he had better now at once take—
A Secretary at War I think he would nicely make—

Don't you ?

The news, you may rely on't, has something really in it—
Between you and me, the King has got a fright—
He won't let Earl Grey (Ellice told me so this minute)
Have the way that he wished to set the Church aright.
Besides, he doesn't like the storm that's now a brewing—
With Portugal and Russia a quarrel seems accruing;
Now, then, is the time—up, W r, and be doing.

Let's get in !

The post is just going—I'll send again to-morrow—
Let all our friends, however, be on the qui vive ;
And though they have long had occasion to sorrow,
Some nice little pickings the Whigs have still to leave.
DlEM.—Should I have been imposed upon, never mind the
trouble;
Say, 'twas nothing but a hoax—a Whigish kind of bubble,
Call it "Hookey Walker," and give the rogues the double.
'Tisn't the first time!

Ever yours,

L-W, T-n C-k.
