NEWTON.
The young carter and his lovely quadruped companions should not take up the whole of the pathway, the one ogling the girls and the others fighting. That batch of Sunday-school scholars were making them- ■' selves very conspicuous striking matches on the footpath on Sunday afternoon. They evidently profited much by their teacher's advice. Charlie has been keeping quiet of late j hut rumour hath it that he is savinar himself for the holidays. Hokey has given Arch Hill best, and transferred his affections to Nelson-street. The bank clerk is around again, much quieter looking, and with a bimon Lapertitt look. He finds the girls quite unable to resist him. Alfonso, with tan shoes, is no more to be taken for a lamppost out of work, but a man of common-sense and shill. The young watchmaker is niw using all his eloquence to bend Tit- Bit to his will, but finds it unavailing. Musicians are scarce now, and only to be heard of in Hobsoastreet; bootmakers have taken their place.
