Thispiere of pleasantry is at once so smart, and sofree from all malignity, that it deserves general circula-tion.Times.

i( A remarkably smart and well done bit of fooln//,»called the Trial of the Rev. Edward Irving, lins beenrecently published, and is ,mo believe, in geneul circu-lation."John Boll.

A remarkably pleasant and amusing jeu d'esprit.has made its appearance, entitled the'Trial ol theRev. Edward living, inwhicb the various criticisms ofthe public journals are produced in evidence with greatdexterity. The chief of these in support of the prosecu-tion, uie, the Times a.:d Uobbett, whose depositions aregiven with considerable humour. The cro$s-e\anjina-tii.n of all the witnesses is particularly happv, and espe-cially that of the Editor of the Courier. The squibheryin the reporting department is light and easy; and uponthe whole, it formsn pleasant, and, indeed, useful pas-quinade for those who are anxious to have all sides ofthe question.Examiner.
