This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1859 Excerpt: ...You saw that ho was not slow, at least, at a quirk or quip, --not backward at repartee, --not behind-hand with his jest, --in short, that he was a great wit though he could not jump. There was something, besides, in his physiognomy, as well as his dress and figure, that strongly indicated his locality. He was palpably a dweller, if not a native, of that clime distinguished equally by " the rage of the vulture and the love of the turtle,"--the good old City of London.

Not to forcstal the pleasure of self-publication, I shall avoid all that are, or may be, his own sayings, and give only such jeux de mots as have a distinct parentage. EXTRACTS FROM THE MS. " Alderman F. was very hard of hearing, and Alderman B. was very hard on his infirmity. One day, a dumb man was brought to the Justice-room charged with passing bad notes. B. declined to enter upon the case. ' Go to Alderman F., ' he said; ' when a dumb man utters, a deaf ono ought to hear it.'" " B. was equally hard on Alderman V.'s linen-drapery. Ono day ho came late into Court. 'I have just come, ' said he, 'from V.'s villa. He had famil...
