The October number of the Corn/«ill Muga
zine opens with the concluding chapter 01' Mr.
Thackeray’s “Four Georges,” and very severe
it. is upon “the rascalliest. sweetest young
Prince,” George the Fat. and Fourth. Here
is a. satirical pen-portrait of George :
"To make a portrait of him at first seemed a
matter of small difficulty. There is his coat,
his star, his wig, his countenance simpering
under it; with 1: slate and piece of chalk. I
could at this very desk perform a. recogniZublc
likeness of him. And yet, after reading of him
inflows of volumes, hunting him through old
magazines and newspapers, having him here
at a ball, (here. at a. public dinner, there at.
races and so forth, you find you have nothing—-
nothing but a coat. and wig and a mask smiling
below it—noihing but a, great simulacrum.——
His sire and grandsires were men. One knows
what they were like; what. ‘hcy would do in
given circumstances; that. on occasion Ihey
fought and demeanerl themselves like tough
good soldiers. They had friends whom [hey
liked according totheir natures; enemies whom
they hired fiercely; passions, and actions, and
individualilies of their own The sailor king
who came afier George was a man; the Duke of
Yank was a man, big, burly, loud, jolly, cur
sing. courageous.
“But. this George, what was he? I look
through all his life and recognize but allow and
a. grin. I try and take him to pieces, and find
silk stocking, padding, stays, a coat. with frogs
and a fur collar, n,star and blue ribbon, a
pocket-handkerchief prodigiously scented, ono
nf Truefitts best nutty brown wigs rocking with
all, n set. of teeth, and :1. huge black stock,
under-Waistcoats, more undeuwaistcoats, and
then nothing. I know of no sentiment. that he
distinctly uttered. Documents are publirhvd
under his name, but people wyote [ht m—privmc
letters, but people Spelt the-m. He puts a
George P. or George R. at the bottom of the
page and fancied he had mitten the paper;
some bookseller’s clot-k, some. poor author, some
man did the Wei-k; sow xhc spelling; cleaned
up the slovonly sentences. and gave the lax
maudliu slipslnp a sort of consistency. He
must. have had an individuality; Ihe dancing
master whom be emulated, nay, surpassed—
lhe wig~maker who curled his hmpec for him
—-the tailor who cut his coats, had that. But.
about, George, one can get. at nothing actual.
That outside, I am certain, is pad and tailur’s
work; there may be something behind, but
what? We cannot get an the character; no
doubt. never shall. Will men of the future have
nothing better to do than to unswathe and
interrupt tlnatroyal old mummy? lown lonce
used to think it. would be good sport to pursue
him, fasten on him, and pull him down, but now
I am ashamed to mount and lay good dogs on,
to summon afnll fieldgand than to hum the
poor game.”
And here is an anecdote in which ‘i‘ the finest
gentleman in Europe,” asit was the fashion
to call the lost. of the Georges, does not figure
very creditably:
-‘ And now I have one more story of the tut-c
-chanulian Sort, in which Clarence and York,
and [he very highest personage of the realm.
the great Prxnco Regvm, all play part. The
tenstvtook place at. the Pavilion, at Brighton.
and was described to me by a gentleman who
was present, at, the scene. in Gilray’u carica
tures, and amousL Fox’s jolly assodatvs, then
fignres agroat nobleman. the Dune of INorfolk,
culled Jocky of Norfolk in his time, and cele
hraled for-his tnhle exploits. He bud quart ellcd
with the Pl‘lnce,like the rest of the Whigs;
butoeon. of reconciliation had takvn place.
and now, being a. very old man, the. Prince in
vited him to dine and slwp sit the Pavilion. and
the old duke drove over from his Castle of
Aron-Jo], with his famous oqnipngs of gray
horses, still remember-t 6 in Sussrx.
‘~ The Prime of Wales had concocted with
his royal brothers a notable scheme for mang
the old man drunk. Every person at the table
was enjoined to drink wine with tho Duke—st
challenge which the old trpe-l‘ did not refuse.
He Snon begun to see that. there. was a conspi
racy against him ; he drank glass for gluSs; lu
overthrew many of the brave. At lusr the First
Gentleman of Europe proposed bumpers of
brandy. ()ne of the royal brothers filleda
great g‘ass for the Duke. He stood up and
tossed oil‘ the drink. ‘Now,’ says hr, -1 will
have my carriage amigo home.’ The Prince
urged upon him his previous promise to sleep
under thereofwhere In ad been so generously
entertained. ‘Nofhefill, ‘he had had enough
of such hospitality.’ A trap had been SI'L fur
him; he would leave the place at. once, and
never enter its doors more.
do c: cc
“The rarriage was called. and came; but, in
the. half-hour’s interval. the liquor had proved
too pownt for the old man; his host‘s generuus
purpose was nnswvred, and the duke’s old gm.
head lay stupefivd on the table. Neverlhmcss,
when his post—chuis'a was announced, he stag
gered to it. as well as he could, and, mumbling
‘in, bade the postilions drive to Arundel. They
drove him fur half an hour round the pavili n
lawn; the poor old man {anciod he was guing
home. When he awoke that. morning he. Was
in bed atthc prince’s hide-ans house at Brighton.
You may see the Wave now for Sixpence; Iluy
have fiddlers there every day ; and Summimes
hummus and mouutvbnnks hire the Riding
House and do thair tricks and tumbling there.
The trees are still there, and the gravel walks
around which the poor old sinner was named.
I can fancy the flushed faces of the royal
princes as they support themselves at the Puff
Lico-pile‘s, and look «11 an. old Nurfo‘k’s dis
grace; but. I craft. fancy how ‘l}?- nmn who
perpecrmed it. continued to be culled a gentle—
man.”
ELECTION OF LORD Muon or Laxiio::.——-
Smurdéy, September lst, lieing MiChm‘lma-S
day, a. common hull was held, in aerordance
with ancient usage, in Guildhall, for the elec

shows the. manner in which a choice was made:
Previous to the election the lord mayor, 31‘

principal officers of the co povalion, wearing
their'appmprinre robes and badges of oilice,
went in 311110 to the church of St. Lawrence

3 which was Preached by the Rev. Heny Christ~

After the arrival of the procusyion at Guild

the office of sherifl', and were eligible to fill that.

The mace-bearer then put the names to the
meeting, one after another, of the alderman
eligible for eleclion to the mayoralty, when a.
lm‘g" majority of hands were held up in favor
of Alderman ()uhitb. The mention of Sir Henry
Muggeridggs name was followed by the next
greatest, number of hands, and that. of Alder
-Imm Mechi elicited a. complimentary cheer.
The lord mayor and alderman proceeded to
their chamber to decide between the two for
whom 1110 show of hands had- prepondernted
over the rash of the members of their body el
igible to fill the office, and on their return the
common s=rgcant at. the request. of the lord
mayor, announced that the clecliou had fallen
on Mr. William Cubitt, M. Y., alderman and
fishmongor. The announcement was followed
by loud and pvolonged cheering. accompanied
by waving of hate and handkerchiefs.
A correspondent of the World furnishes the
following nave] statement. concerning the
Gipsies
To Tm: EDITOR cur THE WORLD z—Tbe allu
sion made by you in your issue of the -—, on
the suhject. of the gipsies, induces me to think
that. you will give ins :I'tion to [he following re
marks or} tlgis singuzar race: '
The gipsies have frequently culled forth a.
certttin kind and degree of interest, which has
often died away again for this particular rea»
son, that. little or nothing can be learned from
them of their history and condition, on account
of the extreme prejudice that is entertained to
wards them and the singular reserve they
show to people outside of their body. But. when
we gain their confidence we find about thelribe
much that, is interesting to the generality of
intelligent persons.
The question that most naturally presents it
self, is, t‘ who are the gipsics ‘3” The reader
of history will be surprised to know that they
are the “ mixed multitude” of the exodus that.
left. Egypt, under Moses. and separated from
the Jews in Arabic. Fonda, and traveled north
east into India, where, in consequence of the
rigidity of caste that has prevailed in that
country from time immemorial, they formed
themselves into a wandering race, living dis
limb from all others. Having been runaway
slaves of a. civilized society, the change of
their circumstances naturally led them to adopt
that. condition which has characterized them
since the beginning of the fifteenth century,
when they first became known to the inhabi
tants of Europe.
The gipsics that. go about England to day
are merely the remains oi the wild stock as it
entered Grout. Britain in or previous to the
‘ year 1506. In their natural state they tire and
nave always been a. very prolific people. In
the early part, of the reign of Queen Elizabeth
they were estimated, in England, at above
10,000; and, notwithstanding their great nat
ural increase, they are generally set down as
*‘ being of very low in number in England.”
Alate writer in Chambero’ E inburgli Journal
even mukea the assertion that. “before this
century expires there will not be a. gipsy in
Western Europe.” But at the presrnt day
there are in Europe and America together not
less than 3,000,000, of all mixtures of blood,
shad- s of color and position in life.
So little ii known of the gipaics that people
invariably believe that. when a. gipsy leaves
the tent, and settles in life, or even travels with
out. a tent, he cont-19310 he a. gipsy! But. not
withstanding every change or whateverkiud
he may make, he and his discoudants never
cease to be gipsies! The North American In
diansnrc "dying out,” lit-course Ult'y deport
this lie; but the gipey tribe gradually lenve
the tent and geto scattered amid the rest of the
population, end maintain their identity as 9.
people. notwithstanding their having no reli
gion peculiar to themsdrrs.
The prejudice that eXlntS against a. gipsy is
such as would lend us to think he was a. intake
or some other reptile, rather than 9. mm. The
original gipsy has thet‘et‘brc no alternative
hut. to hold himself aloof from the rest. of his
fellow ci'oaturts, and even to lead the roving
life for which he is so much blamed. He has
been born into that. state and been retired in
it; and knowing no other he naturally follows
it, and finds the lift- ot‘the ordinnryinhnbitnnt
as dist awful to him as his would be to the ordi
nary inhabitant.
Add to this the fact that the common native,
of wlmtevot-Cnnclilion in life, will not associate
with him; will not. allow h m to entern School,
will even COHS‘dk'l‘ it. pol'ution to touch him,
and you will see how difficult. how almost
impossible it is to make anyth ng of what peo
ple generally understand to be a gipuy. But:
whom-var the oipsy leaves the tent. and in the
popular estimation ceases to he a gipsy, he
most. rigidly hides from the public the titanium
he belongs to the tribe. The tent is the hire
from which the tribe swarms; hence, as people
know of no other gipsies than those about the
hire, they come very quickly to the conclusion
that they “can make nothing of tho gipniesf’
without knowing that. the tribe, taking year
with year, and tent. with tent, are constantly
throwing ofi‘swartzm of gipsirs. into all kinds
of itinerant and settled life. On accountof the
trilte as it. were, “hiding itself,” as it leaves
the lent, the race, such as it is known to the
world, ttevvr gtts the reputation for tho iln~
'prowznent of which it is cup-tile, and no one
of the tribe, outside of the tent. will say that
they are gipsivs; consequently the subject of“
their hlrlfll'y is :tlloWezl to remain in a. slough,
out. of which it is neat-sinry to drag it. S.
