THE COMIC PAPERS.
(From Punch.)

A FLAT RACE.—Simpletons.
HABIT-UAL CRlMlNALS.—Exorbitant Tailors.
CLEOPATRA'S NEEDLE-WORK.—Getting the Pillar to
England.

BLACKTHORN WINTER.-Why is a sharp frost in spring
like a B'mbailiff ? Because it arrests " The Rake's
Progress."
THE BEST ARGUMENT FOR THE ENDOWED SCHOOLS
BILL.—To shew respect for founders' wishes. Throw over
their wills.

A THIRD COHPETITOR.—It may have escaped observa-
tion that on the day of the University Boat Race there
were three eights on the river—the Oxford Eight, the Cam-
bridge Eight, and the Chiswick Eyot.
WOULD IT WERE NOT SO.—Can any one doubt that
there are faggot members as well as faggot voters, who
thinks of the number of " sticks " to be found in the
House ?

NATURAL ENOUGH.—The entrance doors of the South
Kensington Museum are lettered "Ingress," "Egress."
The other day a visitor was overheard wondering where
the Ogress was.
No PURITY OF ELECTION.—There is no denying the
truth of what some ass, who confounds the meaning of
words, might urge as an objection against an enactment
establishing vote by ballot, namely, that it would institute
Club Law.

QUITE IMPOSSIBLE.--It is stated that Sir John Law-
rence, when raised to the peerage, will take the title of
Foyle. "Foyle" Sir John may be, and deserves to be,
but foiled we can never imagine him to be, under any cir-
cumstances.

"A VISION OF LIFE."--A Trinity College (Dublin)
man was talking the other day upon the small value
attached to life by uncivilised nations. Somebody re-
narked that in China if a man were condemned to death
he could easily hire a substitute to die for him. " Ah, yes,"
said T. C. D., " I believe many poor fellows get their
living by being substitutes that way."

The Right Rev. Dr. John Jackson, who nas recently
become Bishop of London, will be enthroned in St. Pore
Cathedral on Thursday, the Bth of April. On arriving St
the Chapter House the bishop will be received by the VerY
Rev. Dr. Man sel, the newly-appointed dean ; the Venerable
Archdeacons Hale and Sinclair; the Rev. Canons Dale,
Melville, and Gregory ; the Right Rev. Bishop Anderson,
the Chancellor of the Cathedral, and the prebendaries. The
Commissary of St. Paul's will thus address the dean
Very Rev. Mr. Dean, I present to you the Right Be'
Father in God John Jackson, Bishop of London, and beg that
he maybe enthroned according to the usual custom, and that
the mandate to that effect from the Archdeacon of Canter'
bury may be read by the registrar of the diocese." I\lr'
Shepherd, the registrar, having read the mandate, the com-
missary will say : "Very Rev. Mr. Dean, on behalf of the
Bishop of London I pray you to take upon you the burden
of the execution of the mandate, and to proceed according
to the tenor thereof." The dean having assented, the
great bell of St. Paul's will toll, and the bishop, clerslt
and officers will proceed from the Chapter House to the
great west door of the cathedral. The Lord Mayor, with
the sheriffs of London and Middlesex, attired in their robe!
of office, and attended by the municipal officers, will alrlt,
the arrival of the bishop at the grand entrance, and id'
join the procession in its progress up the nave. As the pro•
cession moves slowly up the nave au anthem will be sung
by the choir. After service at the altar, the dean will lead
the bishop to the throne, and having caused him to sit down,
will induct and instal him thus:—" I, Henry Longueville
Manse', Doctorin Divinity, Dean of this Cathedral Church,
do, by the authority to me committed, induct, install, an
enthrone you, the Right Rev. Father in God, John, by
Divine permission, Lord Bishop of London, into the bish°P.
ric and episcopal dignity of London. The Lord preserve thy
going out and thy coming in from this time for evermores
and mayest thou remain in justice and sanctity, and adorn
the place to you delegated by God. God is powerful,
and may He increase your grace." The members of the
church and the choir will proceed to their stalls, and ft',..
11.
choral service will be performed. At the conclusion of the
service Handel's "Hallelujah Chorus" will be given, and
the bishop will pronounce the benediction. The bishop sr''
then return to the Chapter House, where the dean, ean°l3l
treasurer, and other officials will make the declaration °
canonical obedience.
