RIDDLE. My owner who loves me almost as his soul BRIGHTON HERMIT. THE RUBBER. (By Captain Collins.) The hour employ'd at tea being o'er, And-"You're to deal." "Then I'm to lead.”— I would invoke my gentle muse, T'explain each quaint-coin'd phrase they use; - The cards are dealt-the trump display'd Signal for fight-" Who led the spade?""Those clubs have answerd"-"Aye, a curse.""I hope those hearts will do no worse." "How hot the room! my face is burn'd.""That trick again, before it's turn'd.""I'm puzzled now-I do protest I think that di'mond is the best." (And up he casts his eyes, appealingTo what? Why-look again-the ceiling.) "We've got the trick-had you an honour ?""Yes, I'd the queen; for, fie upon her, I almost blush at what I tell, She fell, alas! to your king fell!" Well, how are honours equal, say you ? Then deal again—and, Madam, play you.' As fav'rites of the goddess Chance ; Now Int'rest waxes warm apace— You slip the cards-let's deal again." S'death, Ma'am, you throw the game awayAnd, what is worse, my money too! I ne'er, again, will play with you." Would it not have been wrong, to balk BANKRUPTS. SATURDAY, JANUARY, 25.-J.
