ARTEnUB WARD IN LONDON.
Mr.. PUNOH, MY DEAR SrR,
1t is seldim that the Commercial rela-
tions between Great Britain and the
United States is mar'd by Games.
tits Commerce, after all, which VIII
keep the two countries friendly to'ards
each other rather than statesmen,
IL l5look at your last lParllament,f and I
can't see that single speech was en-.
cored during the entire session.
Look at Congress-but no, I'd rather
not look at Congress. aI
Entertainin this great regard for
Commerce, "whose sales whiten every
lsea," as every body happily observes
every chance he gets, I learn with dis
gust and utprise that British snbieck
bot a $Barrilof Apple Sass in America
recently, and when he arrove home he
found under few deloosiv layers Of
sass nothin but saw-dust. i should
have instantly gone into the City and
called a meetin of the leadin CONNER
clal men to condemn and repudiate, as
American, the gross frawd, If hadn't
Learned at the same time that the draft
given by the British subjeck in pay
ment for this frawdylent sass was
drawd onto Bankin House nLondon
which dosen't have n existence, but far
otherwise, and never did. 'E-i1
There is those who larf at these
things, but to me they merit rebooks
and trowns.
With the exception of my Uncle Will
yim.-who, as I've before stated, is a
uncle by marriage only, who is a low
cuss and filled his pockets with pies
and billed eggs at his weddin breakfast,
gwen 10 him by my father, and made
the Clergyman as united him a present
OF my iather's. new overcoat, andswhen
my father on discoverin it gotin a rage
and denounced him, Uncle Wilyftn
said the old man (meanin my parent)
hadn't any idee of first-class Humer.l-
Win .the exception OF this wretched
Uncle, the escutchin of my family has
never peen stained ny Games. The lit.
tle harmless exceptions resort to in
my pefteshen do not call Games.
They are sacrihsses to Art. t1E
1comeo OF q very clever family.
The Wards Is a very clever family,
indeed.
neltevewe are descended from the
Enrlta1s, who nobly fled from a land
OF despttism TO land OF ffreedim, where
they could not only enjoy their own re-
ngloni buS prevent everybody else
from enJoY1n htS. ag
as sald before we are very, clever
