Ours were masquerades without licentiousnesscarnivals without excess. But an occupation not less assiduously pursued, and of infinitely more eventual benefit, was furnished by the re-establishment of our schools, under the voluntary superintendence of my friend Mr. Hooper in the Hecla, and of Mr. Mogg in the Fury. By the judicious zeal of Mr.

We must, therefore, entreat our readers to visit this emporium of honesty, where, in addition to finding lists posted on all the great events of the day, they can have the use of a Mogg while they indulge in one of Lucy's unrivalled cigars; and noblemen, gentlemen, and officers in the household troops may be accommodated with loans on their personal security to any amount.

Sponge, turning again to Leather; 'just go upstairs and help me to pack up my things; and, addressing himself to our visitor, he said, 'perhaps you'll amuse yourself with the paper the Post or I'll lend you my Mogg, continued he, offering the little gilt-lettered, purple-backed volume as he spoke.
