CHRIST NIAS COMES BUT ONCE A YEAR,
But although he comes in snow, he still hopes to meet with a warm
reception—but where is he going ? Why, to pay his yearly visit to
the Spirit of John Rich, in the
GHOSTLY CITY OF DEPARTED FUN.
'Phis city is composed of the Tombs of the by-gone Pantomimes—
" Who's dat knocking at der door ?"—Come and see—" J. Anderson's
my Joe, John. they " I am Rich," that's mere than every one can
say wb wish could—How to make a Pantomime ?—" that is

A: SPLENDID HALL
I EENN THE PALACE OF GOOD
Q.
We, now come to Historical Facts, therefore, as the Clown at
Astley's would sav, " Let us be serious." It is an historical fact,
that the Earl of Essex loved, or pretended so, Good Queen Bess,
therefore he hated the Earl of Leicester, and thence arose a conspi-
racy—Sir Walter Raleigh fears his pipe will be put out—Bacon gets
entice in a frizzle, and Lord Burleigh shakes his head—bat there's
nothing in that, whatever they may say to the contrary.
It is an historical fact, that Good Queen Bess was assisted at her
toilet by many of her noblemen, therefore the
GRAND PROCESSION OF THE TOILETTE
is introduced, in which the Royal Wig! the Royal Ruff ! ! the
Royal Blushes !! ! and the Royal Petticoat !! ! will make their
first appearance on any stage, and trust to the " Weal Indulgence of
a British Public." These are followed by
GOOD QUEEN BESS
on deshabille, as she is represeoted in a picture at Hampton Court.
—What comes next will certainly follow—and then will be seen
GOOD QUEEN BESS
In all her royal spleadour.—lt is an Historical Fact, that Good
./ueen Bess, like " Young Susan"—" had lovers so many that she
scarcely knew upon which to decide"—and it. is an Historical Fact
that the following were a few of them.
• THE REJECTED ONES :
Philip of Spain, Prince Rupert, Prince of Sweden, Duke of Anjoa,
Prince Alengon, Marquis of Winchester, the King of Sweden,
Benry of Navarre, Archduke Charles, Earl of Arundel, Sir William
Pickering, Charles Blount, and. the Earl of Arran. Good Queen
Bess appoints a meeting of these " woaderons proper men" at
Kenilworth, bat declares, that on her way, A hunting will go"
—and having got on the " High Horse," the story gallops on to
CUMNOR HALL BY MOONLIGHT—WiIson. .
" Coming n events clot ' their shadows beforethee,
My darling "—Ectchy, ketchy, ketJhy—" Put out the light,
and then "—enter the Earl of Leicester on his way to Kenil-
worth—Ho stops at Love's half-way house, the Bobsar Arms—" Oh,
Susanna," or rather " Oli, Amy !"—lt can't be sail, "he makes no
bones about it "—They part, " more in sorrow, than in anger," but,
" being gone, Amy is hersel 'despair," to say, a rather jealous
young lady, who ill her "deed intcoduces her Lovely
Babby, to whom she sings the following rathetie stanza :
" Come my hobby, come along with me
We'll go to far-famed Kenilworth,
Tour naughty dad to see "
An so they do.

KENILWORTH CASTLE
As it appeared on the occasion of Good Queen Bess's Royal Visit.
For further particulars inquire of Sir Walter Scott. It is an histori-
cal fact that Good Queen lie,s paid the Earl of Leicester a visit, and
" paid the piper." This, his gorgeous tete, half ruined him ; there-
fore we pity his fate, hut must admire his wondrous generosity, for
all he ever hoped for in return was—half-a-crown. The Earl fore-
stalls Shakspere, by discovering " that the course of true love never
did run smooth," for here he meats with some twenty " competi-
teurs," and to him they do come " petit ours," for they prove per-
fect bears, or, more properly speaking, bores. A Lovers' Quarrel
en a grand scale, a sort of " tiff for the million," takes place, which,
although beginning in love, ends in war, and the total destruction of
