CHRISTMAS COMES BUT ONCE A. YEAR,
Bat although he comes in snow, he still hopeo s to meet with a warm
to
reception—but where is he going ? Why, t pay his yearly visit
the Spirit of John Rich, in the
GHOSTLY CITY OF DEPARTED FUN.
This city is composed of the Tombs of the by-gone Pantomimes—
" Who's dat kneeking at der door?"—Come and see—" J. Anderson's
my Joe, John," and " I am Rich," that's more than every one can
say ;we wish they could—How to make a Pantomime ?—" that is
the question"—but the answer, it is hoped, will be Satisfactory—
Poor TA
a-ge-d meets with no clemency, se we fly by night" to
SPLENDID HALL IN THE PALACE OF GOOD
QUEEN BESS.
We now some to Historical Facts, therefore, as the Clown at
Astley's would say, " 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
quite In a frizede, and Lord Burleigh
the shakes his head
but there's
nothing in that, whatever they may say to contrary.
It is an historical tact, 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 en any stage, and trust to the " usual indulgence of
a British Public." These are followed by
GOOD QUEEN BESS
en deshabille, as she is represented in a picture at Hampton Court.
—What comes next will certainly follow—and then will be seen
GOOD QUEEN BESS
In all her royal sple.,dour.—it is an Historical Fact, that Good
Queen Bess, like " Young Susan"—" had lovers so that
}she
e
d it
scarcely knew upon which to deckle"—
is an Historical Fact
that the following w THEE of them.
REJECTED ONES
Philip of Spain, Prince Rupert, Prince of Sweden, Duke of Anjoa,
Prince Alenqon, Marquis of Winchester, the King of Sweden,
Henry 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 " womderousn pro men" at
Kenilworth, bet declares, that on leer way, " A hung
son to
she will go"
—and having got on the " High Horse," the story gallop

" coming events cast their shadows before "—" Rest thee,
my darling "—Ketchy, ketchy, ketchy—" Put out the light,
and then "—enter the Earl of Leicester on his way to Kenil-
worth— Ile stops at Love's half-way hon-e, the Rehear Arms—" Oh,
Sus Anna," or rather " Oh, Amy I"—ft can't be sail, "he makes no
bones about it "—They part, more in sorrow, than in auger," but,
.` being gone, Amy is herself again "—that is to sae, a rather jealous
young lady, who in her "deep despair," introduces her Lovely
Babby, to whom she sings the following i.atlntic stanza :
" Come my babby, come along with me
We'll go to far-famed Kenilworth,
Your naughty dad to see."
And 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 Bess paid the Earl of Leicester a visit, and
" paid the piper." This, his gorgeous fete, half ruined him ; there-
fore we pity his fate, but must admire his wondrous generosity, for
all he ever hoped for in return wam—half-a-cron.
tTrue he
lave Earl
nfo ever
re-
stalls Shakspore, by discovering " that the course of
dig run smooth," for here he meets with some twenty " c,ompeti-
tenrs," and to him they do come " petit ours," for they prove per-
fect bears, or, more properly speaking, bores. A Lovers' Quarrel
on a grand scale, a sort of `ends for the mand the total destruction illion," takes place, which
