Since I feel that with scribes nought on earth can so

grieve 'em,

As thus in a darkness Cimmerian to leave 'em;

A noted shop for BOOTS and SHOES,

You'll find by Soho Square:

Perhaps no workman in the Trade

Will parallel their wear.

II.

In substance, texture, solid worth,

With no common art combined;—

Search Oxford Street from end to end,

My strain thus I terminate, trusting their fury
To Nick will not hurl me without judge or jury:

The Battle-Boots,-the Stage-Boots,

And Boots to walk and ride in,——

I strive all others to excel,

BLACKING.—A Complete Victory obtained over all Blacking Makers!!!-The brilliant WELLINGTON! which far out-rivals all other that was ever offered to the Public! and there never was such a bright polish given to the world, as that produced by this incomparable Blacking.

Observing a number of persons crowding into No. 9, Charing Cross, and being informed that it arose from the eagerness of the public to secure their fortunes in the state lottery, they instantly sent for two tickets, resolving to add their prizes to the above-mentioned subscriptions. When told that every ticket would be drawn a prize on the 6th of May, they exclaimed—Hurrah! Bish for ever!!
