(From Our Own Enthusiastic Correspondent...
Hail to the land of freeborn Celts , "Where Raving Oceans never pelts ; I stand upon thy mountain brow , And feel that I am free , I trow ! Come forth ye Bards from honoured graves ,
Nor heed though Saxon envy raves ; Attune the harp upon the hill , Of freedom give the vales their fill . "When Tyrants stalk in reckless ire , And homesteads in their anger fire ; Here Liberty in mountain passes , Laughs at its foes , for Saxon asses . ! Then call the dastard Edward up ,
\ And bid him on his son ' s corse sup , — | Ope wide the eye of princely Wales ; See ! see ! the caitiff conqueror quails ! " Thou With joy cradle I view of the thy Celtic furrowed race face , : With boisterotis lungs I cry All Hails ! And sing the praise of mighty Wales !
I think this must astonish the Celts . There is the true ring about it . The Prince of Wales must appoint me his own Poet Laureate . P . S . —I have just read the disgustingly insolent letter of that Mr . Edmund Yates . I shall leave this abominable country to-morrow . I should like to know what Mr . Edmund Yates does call poetry . The Welsh are the most abandoned ruffians that I have ever come in contact with .

We Are Favoured With Several Designs For...
We are favoured with several designs for cartoons every week : lest the pviblic should think that we are prejudiced in our selection , we give a few specimens , regretting that our artist has not time , and that we have | not space to illustrate them . i . —From A . B . X ., Peckham Rye . Don ' t you think this would make a good picture ? Disraeli as Potiphar , —no , I mean Lord Russell , with the Reform Bill as his wife , and Lord T . r » rrl T Derby > f » rV » v as ne " Pharaoh Pharaoh in in the t-hf / distance lisfrnnre : Lriacistone Gladstone couia eonlrl bp De in in prison orison in in

Kite "te underneath imrlerneath it it — Distrain Distrain - - ing for Rent , or the Rite man in the Rite Plaice . 3 . —Front Chosroes the First , Sunberry Villas , Islington . What do you think of this for a large picture ? A large figure , something like the Statue of the Sphinx , or the Tinted Venus , representing Morality crying into a large Basin ( the tears smoking , on a fire ) , with Repentance written on it . Two Andirons representing my uncles ( I send their hsand will take 100 iesThenthe
you photograp , they cop ) . , on other side , Hypocrisy , made like a toad , with a suit of fashionable clothes , grinning at a Snake with nineteen heads ( to represent Society ) in a crinoline and bonnets of the latest fashion , holding an infant in her fore paws . The British Lion up a Tree on the Right hand , howling , with a portrait of the Prince of Wales set in diamonds round his neck . The whole to be called Modern Morality ; or , the Monster Sin devouring the Heart of Albion . I could write some verses up to this . P . S . —Please cross the cheque . There , we think that will satisfy the public and our would-be contributors ; for , where the pen is so graphic , what need of the pencil ?
