THE INDUSTRY OF ALL NATIONS.
The great gathering of 1851 is not specifically appointed to include
living productions, but we have, nevertheless, heard of a few that will
most assuredly present themselves. The French will contribute a good
cprinkling of their chevaliers d'indvstrie, and the rural districts of
England will send up their full quota of raw material to be dealt with
or done—as raw material is generally doomed to be.
We may perhaps be excused for suggesting a few animated subjects
I hat might be added to the exhibition without fear of over-crowding,
as the specimens of the articles we are about to name would be limited
by their exceeding rarity.
A man born with a silver spoon in his mouth.
A ditto made of Din«s tailors
A ditto who has dined with Duke Humphrey.
A governess who has been willing to accept, instead of remuneration,
a comfortable home, and who has found the considera'ion realised.
A young gentleman who has been liberally boarded and well educated
for 16 guineas per annum.
Somebody who has found something to his advantage after having
heard of ir, from Joseph Ady.
The laughing eye wilh ihe light in it.
A man wi!h all his best feelings possessing him.
THE WOODEN WALLS AND THE WOODEN HEADS OF
ENGLAND.
The sale of old naval stores in 1849 amounted to £42,403.
The sale of old ships amounted to £2,911.
The latter item, we think, is insignificantly small, considering what
a perfect hand—first chop, we may say—the Admiralty is in building
ships, axd cutting them up again. It would not be a bad speculation,
by the bye, to open a little store shop nexr, door to the Admiralty, where
ihe new ships might be sold in penny bundles of firewood, and boxes of
iucifer-mafcues. An Elliott (if there is one left unemployed) should
be put at the head of the establishment, and a little black doll, in the
shape of Ellenborough or Minto, might be suspended over the
doorway, so as to attract the notice of Sir William Symonds, and
the other Government ship-breakers. Over the portico should be
written, in the peculiar rag-and-bottle kind of long spidery letters,
the following board :—
This is the Cheap Original Marine Store Shop.

EXHIBITION OF IDLENESS.
Lord Brougham objects to Hyde Park as the site for the proposed
Exhibition of the Industry of all Nations. It is but fair, however, that
Industry should compete with its opposite on the latter's own ground.
For a long series of years, from February to August, there has been
held, in the Bing of Hyde Park, a daily Exhibition of Idleness. The
Industry of all Nations may afford a lesson to the Idleness of one. It
must not be supposed, however, that our lounging fashionables and lazy
footmen furnish the sole criterion of our national Idleness. To form an
adequate idea of that qualify, it is necessary to take into account our
defective drainage, putrescent Thames, thirty thousand starving needle-
women, and multitudinous rogues ; the stupendous result of inattention,
indifference, and indolence.
Mr. Ferrand's Real Substitute for the Corn-Law Fleece.
Mr. W. B. Ferrand, at the Pontefracf. Protectionist Meeting last
week, is reported to have made the following proposition for the relief
of agriculture:—
" Let the farmers of Great Britain and Ireland enter into a wool league, and vow
they will never again wear cotton, if they can be provided with linen or woollen gonds
and in two years the cotton-spinners of Lancashire will compound. {Loud eheers.y
To this suggestion of Mr. Ferrand's there is little doubt that tin
farmers will stop their ears—with cotton itself.
