FIGARO IN LONDON Satire should like a polish'd razor keen, Wound - with a touch that's scarcely felt or seen.— LADY MONTAGUE. " Political Pasquinades and Political Caricatures are parts ( though humble ones,) of Political History. They supply information as to the person and habits often as to the motives and objects of public men, which cannot be found elsewhere."— CROKER'S NEW WHIG GUIDE. No. 181. SATURDAY, MAY 23, 1835. [ Price One Penny. RESOLUTION AND DISSOLUTION. The City Cromwell. These are fine times for the caricaturist, and the ludicrous side o^ life thrusts itself into our face at every moment. Who would have thought that even a Mayor could be such an ass as Winchester has proved himself? Who could have thought that an empty headed stationer would have acted the Civic Cromwell, and insulted his fellow shopkeepers of the Common Council, by treating them as if they were all paupers and he the overseer. But we have illustrated this subject in another part of our paper, and may there- fore at once go to the second absurd occurrence of the week, which with our usual infatuation has again tempted us into another extra caricature. Vol . IV. THE NEW PAUL PRY. " If Lord Brougham's abrupt visit to Windsor one day last week, when, by the unaccountable remissness of the proper authorities, he obtained admission to the piesence of his illustrious * correspondent by the general post,' be true, the caution of his lordship's late friends is eminently praiseworthy."— John Bull. Such is the account in the John Bull, our own reporter has it as follows:— A few days since a snug little tea party at Windsor, consisting of the Duke, the King, and Adelaide, was broken in upon by the un- expected apparition of Lord Brougham, who having got rather fuddled at the Beef- steak Club, visited the Masquerade last Mon- Printed by G. Cowie, 13, Newcastle- street, Strand. 108 FIGARO IN LONDON. day night, in the character of Paul Pry, and having been kicked out of the supper room as too riotous and noisy for the elegant assemblage, took a cab and set off for Windsor, by way of having what his Lordship was pleased to denominate a lark with old Billy. The sensible monarch of this happy country, at the moment of Brougham's arrival was studying the new edition of Tory Tactics, as recently promulgoted by the specious and crafty Sir Robert at Merchant's Tailor's Hall. Wellington was explain- ing to his Majesty ' the artful dodge,' by which Sir Robert intended to jumo down his own throat and swallow his principles and professions for the sixteenth time. Adelaide was lost in lux- urious enjoyment of the happy prospect, and conservative hopes were lightly beaming upon'old Arthur's long nose,— when like the evil genius in the melodramas, Brougham popped in, hoping he didn't intrude, just to see how things were going on. The snug little sly party were absolutely flabbergasted with terror. The King shuffled his plans into his royal pocket, and Adelaide called for hot water and sugar, and bamboozled Brougham with brandy until he was blindly and bewilderingly intoxicated. Wellington then picked his pocket of a Penny Magazine, and he was bundled up to bed by Lord Howe and the other sticks in waiting. Next morning Brougham apologized, was forgiven, on dishonorably writing an article for The Times, abusing himself. The matter thus ended satisfactorily for all parties. INTERPRETER. A Bill Broker. We have received numerous letters from fCorrsspondents who are ardent in their expressions of fervid gratitude for the manner in which we have applied the Tomahawk to the scalps of the unbelieving Jews. We have reason to know that the castigation we have inflicted has been very severely felt— Holywell Street is in a continual ferment, and we have now before us a letter from a notorious Jew money lender, beseeching us in the most abject terms, to withhold any farther disclo- sure of the nefarious transactions of himself and a gang of black- legs, swindlers, and bailiffs. This fellow is one of the most hearlless ruffians we ever met with. The number of families whom the wretch has rained is almost beyond belief. Enter any prison in London, you will find five out of almost every ten who have had some connection with the monster. To the tradesman in want of a small sum of money, and just commenc- ing business, this miscreant lends money upon an exorbitant bonus, and discounts his acceptance at a very short date. When the bill becomes due, the tradesman is perhaps not prepared with the full amount and wishes the Bill renewed either in full or in part— being desirous of sacri- ficing a second bonus for a little additional time. This is what the usurious money lender calculates upon, and here he commences his play with his wretched victim. When the victim talks about extension of time, the miscreant professes to be extremely surprised, that it is not his wav of doing business, boasts about honour and commercial integrity, and is astouished that any man should put his name to a Bill which he was not prepared to honour. In this situation the miserable tradesman having no choice left but of going to prison or giving some security for the amount, is easily induced to deposit his lease in the hands of the money lender, and from this moment his doom is sealed, he is a ruined man. A twelvemonth finds him without a home, and in all probability a prisoner at the suit of this very scamp, who having grasped his lease as security for the debt, professes friendship in the morning and ' sells him up' in the afternoon. This is ' no flight of Fancy ; there is one such a villain in the world, and the indignant FIGARO will no longer see his fellow creatures outraged by these miscreants without redress or revenge. THE CIVIC PARLIAMENT. Horace, that Figaro of Rome, makes the observation that there were many fine fellows lived before the Trojan War, but that they might as well not have lived, for there were no poets to celebrate their fame; may not something of this kind be said of our own glorious Winchester? There have been many asses filled the Civic chair before his time, but there was no FIGARO then in exist- ence to call the public attention to his shining career of glory and stolidity. But there is one subject unsung by poets, uncelebrated by reporters, the important and never- to- be- too- much- thought- of Debates, which have lately taken place in that highly constitutional and cock- olorum assembly, the illustrious Common Council. Our reporter ( sent down by express in one of Shillibeer's Omnibuses,) has furnished us with the result of the day's debate, which we rush to deliver to an agonised and anxious public. SATURDAY, 16th May, 1835. The Speaker took the Chair at 12 o'clock. Mr. M. SCALES presented a petition numerously signed by the but- chers of Whitechapel, praying that the Honourable House would take into consideration the great benefits accruing to them in selling ' putrid' meat. The Honourable Member said that never in his whole life did he beheld so genteel a petition, ' twas signed by the influential men of the City, and he thought it was ' meat' that Parliament should take measures to insure the happiness of that class, if it was only to ' save their bacon.' ( Cheers.) Mr. Wm. PRITCHARD presented a petition from the gentlemen con- fined in the King's Bench and the Fleet, praying for the Abolition of Imprisonment for debt. Mr. CHARLES PEARSON supported the prayer of the petitioners, and in a way which did him high credit, explained to the House, that pro perty was common to all classes, and that debt was a chimera of the Political Economists. New writs were issued on the motion of Mr. C. PEARSON, for New- gate, vacant by Mr. John Ketch accepting the office of Principal Hang- man. Holywell Street, vacant by Mr. Solomon Levy's accepting the office of Bailiff to the Lord Mayor. Mr. C. PEARSON rose amidst loud cheers. " Sir, it having pleased his civic Majesty to desire me to form a cabi- net, it is necessary for me to detail to you the policy, domestic and foreign, of the Government of which I am the head. In June, 1830, in the reign of our well beloved, and much to be regretted civic monarch, the Ministry, with a recklessness which characterizes ignorance, passed laws which, to say the least of them, were not consonant with liberty and humanity. ( Hear.) The odious Baked Tatur Boys Act was an infringe- ment of Civil Liberty— the railing off the left set of pews in St. Stephens Walbrook, was an infringement of Religious Liberty ; and what could better show their want of respect to our foreign relations, than send- ing his Brittannic Majesty, on the other side of the bar, a twopenny- post letter. ( Loud cheers.) Sir, I come forward to release the people from their thraldom, ( cheers) and I will stand and fall by the original charier of the 10th of May, 1834, ( loud cheering) I will reclaim the people from the terrors they are approaching, I will at once make them Great, glorious, and fiee, First flower of the earth, and first gem of the sea. ( Loud and long protracted cheers.) 1 am aware my task is arduous, but I will persevere, I will repeal the obnoxious acts, I will once more plant the Standard of Liberty on the top of the Mansion House, ( loud cheers) I will, for ever, send to obscurity the minions of unprofitable lice that infest the heads of this House. But, sir, we shall keep inviol- able the amicable treaty of Nov. 1831, with his Britannic Majesty, for we have had the most friendly assurances from that quarter. We shall promote the trade of this city, and raise it again to that high pinnacle of grandeur by which it has gained the admiration of the neighbouring counties. ( Hear, hear.) The unhappy state of Wapping has received, since our accession to office, our very best consideration. ' I ha' wretched parish, agitated as it has been by a lawless band of watermen> whose sole aim is the destruction of the male inhabitants by the mono- poly of the FAIR! shall no longer distract that place; we will co'erce them ; and once more we will behold the district prosperous. ( Cheers, which were re- echoed by the opposition.) In fact, sir, we will promot harmony and jnstice, and, unlike statesmen, we will act according to our consciences." ( Loud cheers.) Mr. Potter was gald to see a Ministry formed upon the principles of his noble friend. Mr. Bank Smith was sorry, and regretted much to see a Ministry foun FIGARO IN LONDON. 179 ded upon nothing, for every body must admit that the noble gentle- man ( Pear3on) had no principles whatever. ( Loud cheers from the oppo sition.) Mr Stubbs gave notice that he should move that the petition of Mr. Catnach, of Seven Dials, be referred to a committee in the garret. The House adjourned at 10 o'cbck. MONDAY, 18th May, 1835. The Speaker took the Chair at 3 o'clock. Petitions were presented in favour of the Imprisonment for Debt bill, by an Hon. Member who supported the prayer of the petitioners in a way which drew tears from the hon. and learned Member for White- chapel, ( Scales.) The Baked ' 1 atur Boys' Act was read a third time and passed. Mr. Charles Pearson seeing Alderman Farebrother in his seat, wished to put a question to him relative to his character. The Hon. Member had heard it said that the Noble and Learned Alderman was not a man of honour; be was anxious to hear if the Gallant Gentleman admitted the assertion. ( Hear, Hear.) Mr. Alderman Farebrother: Sir, I think Ihe question put by the Noble and Learned Member opposite is irregular, and to say the least of it, unnecessary.— ( Hear.)— I, in the most direct terms, must declare I am dispossessed of the least particle of honour.—( Loud cheers.)— Yes, sir, continued the Hon. Gentleman, a parcel of men, have been going about disseminating the most foul and calumnious lies about me, but until now I never heard in this house an atlack made on myself.— ( Cheers.) Mr. Vincent Figgins moved that new writs be issued for Red Lion Square, in the place ofMr. Evett, who had accepted the office of City Crier. Tower Hill, in the place of Mr. Joseph Ady, who had ac- cepted the office of Solicitor General for the City. Sweetings Alley, in the place of; Mr. Effingham Wilson, who had accepted the office of Principal Dustman. Mr. Hicks wished to know if it was the intention of Government to pension the superannuated Charity Boys' of the Grey Coat School. Mr. Charles Pearson was not prepared to give any answer, but the question would occupy the best attention of Government. Mr. Leaf moved that the House do go into committee on the Red Lion Square regulation Bill. On the question that clauses 35 to 37 do stand part of the Bill. Mr. Hicks rose and said he must give those clauses his most disqualified opposition, he said it was an infringement on the rights of the nursery- maids, and in these times when rights were considered wrongs, it was dangerous to give too great power to the officers of tbe Square, who, said the Gallant Member, prevent the most innocent part of the popula- tion partaking of the pleasures} of walking on the Grass Green turf. What shall we do next ? it is the same as taking away a woman's innoceney as precluding her from keeping her own.—( Cheers.)— I shall oppose the clauses and move that they be read this day six months.— ( Order, and loud Cheers.) Mr. Leaf in reply, I think that pro bono publico tbe ground should be KEP TIDY. For the Public O 1 think would find the ' vantage, and therefore I think thai the original clauses had better stand part of the Bill.—( Cheers, and loud cries of Divide, Divide ) The Galleries were then cleared for a division, when the numbers appeared For the Amendment 1 Against it 40 Majority for Ministers 39 Upon our re- admission into the Gallery we found Mr. Leaf on his legs, moving that clauses 38 to 40 do stand part of the Bill. Their purport was to oblige the Square keys to be made of steel, and that the maid servants should not be allowed to enter with pattens. After a few words from Mr. Wood, Mr. Pope, Mr. Farebrother, and Deputy Stubbs, the motion was agreed to without a division. Tbe House resumed, the Chairman reported progress, and obtained leave to sit again the next day. Mr. Pope wished to know of the Noble the Home Secretary, if the Ministers intended to do any thing respecting the Sadler's Well's game preserve !—( Hear, hear.) The Home Secretary said, that property of all descriptions must be property, andit was with pleasure that he could inform the House that the Attorney General was preparing a Bill for tbe protection of the Fishery, which would be laid before the House shortly.—( Cheers.^! Mr. Elphick said it would meet with his most cordial support.— ( Hear.) The Chancellor of the Exchequer had a communication to make to the House respecting an appointment lately made.—( Loud cries of Hear.) — He alluded to the office of principal Turnkey of Newgate having been given to an Hon. Member of that House.— Mr. Hick?. ( Loud Cheers.)— It had been said that the appointment was improper, he,— ( the Chancellor of the Exchequer)— thought very different. He must admit that the very peculiar knowledge that Learned Gentleman pos- sessed upon the subject, and his knowledge of the localities of the building, derived from his long residence there, fitted him to hold that important situation.—( Loud and long continued cheers.) Mr. Dayne gave? notice that on Wednesday, the 31st December 1836, he would bring before the House certain letters written by Richard the First to a Lady of his Court.—( Hear, hear.) The Chancellor of the Exchequer said that on Monday next he would move that a grant of Three half- pence be made for the paying off of the National Debt. The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and the House adjourned at 12 o'clock. CITY COURT CIRCULAR. Mrs. W. Anson took an airing in an open hackney coach round Red Lion SquarS. Mr. Catnach has been appointed printer to the Lord Mayor. Lady Augusta Farebrother went in state to the Pavilion on Thursday last, the performances consisted of the popular play of ' Tom and Jerry,' Mr. Almar sang the Melody of; All roundmy hat! and the evening ended with ' The Spectre Bride; or, Blood and Blue Fire.' Her Ladyship was greeted with two distinct round of cheers, Mr. Thomas Wilson leaves town on Sunday for the Hampstead Road. Owing to his ill- health he proposes to take it in easy stages. THEATRICALS Mr. Arnold has chosen to put himself forward as the Sir Oracle of the mu- sical world ; the manager on whose fiat the fate of the English school of music is to turn. Who is Mr. Arnold, that he should pretend to be the great pitch- pipe of the day? True, he has for some years been the part proprietor of a lean theatre— and under the pretence of English Operas, has catered a few lively farces, and agreeable performers, for the amusement of the few people who at- tended the shabby set out. whicli was called the Lyceum. True, that he brought out Der Freischutz, and thus forced upon English notice the sublime beauties of Weber— but was it out of love for the music, or from a catch- penny appreci- ation of the outlandish effects and gibberish horrors of that most efficient of all musical melodramas ? Inflated by the mischievously lucky hit, Mr. Arnold has ever since set himself up as ajudge of music, and goes braying about among the cognoscenti ( or knowing ones) as a most superior jackass, with very great ears for music. We often wonder that he never treated us to a grand hiauch ! of his own, and had set some of the family trash to his own music, but he has not yet reached the grand climax of mismanagement. At present he is satisfied with getting bad music for nothing ( its real value) and producing it in the beguiled hope of persuading the bewildered and puzzled public that very un- commonly dull music must necessarily be very fine. We would write very largely about bringing the English composers before the public, and of the support which the English composers should give him, by giving him their operas gratis— as an encouragement, which reminds us of that peculiar friendly arrangement by which one man accepts a bill for which another gets the money. We are superior to the common- place twaddling humbug about Foieign music; we like the ' Somnambula,' and could hear it over and over again; but we quarrel with the judgment which antagonises Miss Romer directly against Malibran and Grisi. Miss Romer is not capable of the com- parison which she forces upon our notice, nor does she do herself justice by such futile efforts at climbing a height, to reach the summit of which she is physically and intellectually incapable. Her study of the character is fine, but although we all know how Othello ought to be acted— yet there are very few Keans who are actually able to embody the conception. We might, perhaps, have passed over Mr. Arnold's letters, and set down his assumption to the usual bombast of managers, were it not for the sneering tone which pervades his correspondence, respecting ' the improvident bargain' and - decent subsist 134 FIGARO IN LONDON. euce' of literary men. Mr. Arnold has, forsooth, a most enviable contempt for dramatic authorship, and looks upon an author with the same eye as a fat carcass- butcher weighs and surveys the beast for which he is cheapening.— It never appears to enter into the calculation of Mr. Bartley that an author could, by any circumstance of talent or fortune, ever attain the level of— a manager's Faugh ! We do not think that Malibran will take much by her motion— the opportu- nity of comparison between her acting and that of Grisi, proves the decided superiority of the latter. We are glad of this, for we trust that the unfair ad- vantage which Bunn has taken of the actors, will only precipitate that certain ruin which must inevitably, sooner or later, await the adventurous double- bar- relled lessee of two large houses. Donizetti's Marino Faliero has met with triumphant and deserved success— the music is essentially dramatic and imaginative. We may point out, to the notice of our readers, the duet between Tamburini and Lablache, in the first act, Ivanhoff's gondolier- song, and Rubini's last effort— as well as the noble strain sung by Israel Bertucci, previous to his execution. We have it in our power to expose the knavish intrigue by which the Victo- ria is to be again opened by some minion of Glossop's. The scarcity of capital which like an influenza, pervades the whole of the Glossop gang, has been made up by a subscription of the various flash- houses and pot- houses in which the too- well- known neighbourhood of the Coburg Road abound. The actors, likewise, are engaged to give up their first week's salary ( coming events cast their shadows before) to form a fund for Mr. Glossop's creditors, and for Mr. Glossop's advantage. We dropt in at the Surrey, the other evening, just in time to see little Buck- stone's laughable personification of Hector Timid, in ' The Dead Shot.' Miss Vincent acted up to him, and displayed great comic power in going through the various disguises' of temper and deportment which the heroine assumes in this clever farce. We are glad to see that Mr. Davidge meets with the success which his judicious management of this theatre entitles nim to expect. We cannot admire Mr. Jerrold's prudence in recovering one hundred pounds from Mr. Morris, by proving that his ' Beau Nash' was a loss to the treasury of thp Haymarket Theatre. The less the public peep behind the scenes the bet- ter. Surely Mr. Jerrold's reputation of being a successful author was worth more than a hundred pounds to him. Mr. Farren's evidence is the acme of im- pudenee and conceit. Who made Mr. Farren the grand comptroller of the stage? and what are Mr. Farren's qualifications for the part of Dramatic Reader? What character did Mr. Farren ever perform humourously 1 and is not his own acting always as dull as ditch- water ? Vauxhall has re- opened. We wonder whether the suppers have improved, and the charges have been diminished. We shall report progress next week. NOTICES. If Mr. Maurice Levy's washerwoman intends to repudiate her contract res- pecting the dozen collars, and one shirt, we advise her to engage Mr. C. Lewis, of No. 6, Bernard Street, the accuracy of whose wristbands, and un- muffled simplicity of whose shirt- effrontery, render him perfectly competent, touching the point of law, as the delicate Charles wears primrose coloured kid gloves. In answer to G. T. we beg to state, that as long as Nathan observes his pre- sent civil deportment, we shall not stir him up with our barber's pole. We thank ' Scrutator' for his information respecting the rosy- nosed ' Doll- man' of the Marshalsea. Who is Thompson, the Sheriff's Officer, and why does he discount bills ? If S.
