Punch, or the London Charivari, Vol. 98 January 11, 1890 by Francis Cowley Burnand XVI. "Midnight's meridian is supposed to mark The bound twixt toil and slumber. Light and dark Mete out the lives of mortals In happy alternation," said my guide. "Six hours must fleet ere Phoebus shall set wide His glowing orient portals. "The last loud halloo at the tavern-door long since has driven the reckless and the poor From misery's only haven Forth on the chilling night. 'All out! All out!' Less sad would fall on bibulous' souls, no doubt, The refrain of the Raven. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection.

Punch, or the London Charivari, Vol. 98, April 12, 1890 F. C. (Francis Cowley) Burnand A SUGGESTION FROM PUMP-HANDLE COURT. My Dear Mr. Punch, -As the representative of Justice in this country, I appeal to you. And when I write this, you must not imagine that I claim, in my own person, to represent Justice-no, Sir, I only to some extent suggest the Law-a very different matter. But, Sir, as suggesting the Law, I apply to you for redress on behalf of hundreds, nay, thousands, of members of a very noble and learned profession. Sir, you will have noticed that the Law Courts are congested. Look through the daily list (this you can do when term recommences), and you will find, that although Chancery is doing fairly well, there is scarcely a movement in Common Law. The reason for this is obvious. Nearly all the Common Law Judges are away, and business is simply at a standstill. Now, Sir, I am very reluctant to give their Lordships more trouble than necessary, but I do think, for all our sakes, that increased facility should be afforded for trying cases single-handed. It should be managed in this wise. But here, perhaps, in the cause of intelligibility, you will permit me to describe my method in common (dramatic) form.

Punch, or the London Charivari, Vol. 98 February 15, 1890 F. C. (Francis Cowley) Burnand Sweet odours, radiant colours, glittering light! How swift a change from the dusk sodden night Of London in mid-winter! Titania here might revel as at home; Fair forms are floating soft as Paphian foam, Bright as an iceberg-splinter. Dianas doubtless, yet their frost holds fire; The snowiest bosom covers soft desire, And these are snowy, verily. As blanched-and bare-as Himalaya's peaks, Light-vestured as a troop of dancing Greeks. Waltz-measures ripple merrily. Merrily? Yes; the music throbs with mirth, Feet trip in time to it; yet what strange dearth Of glee midst all these graces! The quickening fire of spirit, passion, will, Seems scarce to move these dancing forms or thrill These irresponsive faces.

Punch, or the London Charivari, Vol. 98, June 28 1890 F. C. (Francis Cowley) Burnand At intervals of a few years the torpor of London Society is stirred by the carefully disseminated intelligence that a new planet has begun to twinkle in the firmament of fashion, and the telescopes of all those who are in search of novelty are immediately directed to the spot. Partially dropping metaphor, it may be stated that a hitherto unknown lady emerges, like the planet, from a cloud under which, as the envious afterwards declare, the greater part of her previous existence has been spent. But Society, under the influence of boredom, is tolerant of new sensations and of those who seek to provide them. Those who guard its portals are, in these latter days, bidden not to be over-curious in the inquiries they make of applicants for admission, and eventually it may come to pass that the approaches and avenues are opened as readily to one who comes trailing clouds of obscurity, as to her who shines with the steady lustre of acknowledged position...

Punch or the London Charivari, Vol. 98 June 7, 1890 F. C. (Francis Cowley) Burnand First Shy Man (to break the spell). Odd, our running up against one another like this, eh? Second Shy Man. Oh, very odd. (Looks about him irresolutely, and wonders if it would be decent to pass on. Decides it will hardly do.) Great place for meeting, the Academy, though. First S. M. Yes; sure to come across somebody, sooner or later. [Laughs nervously, and wishes the other would go. Second S. M. (seeing that his friend lingers). This your first visit here? First S. M. Yes. Couldn't very well get away before, you know. [Feels apologetic, without exactly knowing why. Second S. M. It's my first visit, too. (Sees no escape, and resigns himself.) Er-we may as well go round together, eh? First S. M. (who was afraid this was coming-heartily). Good! By the way, I always think, on a first visit, it's best to take a single room, and do that thoroughly. [This has only just occurred to him.
