As Uie at tenuated hands move upon the antiquated dial of j the old clock, “the minutes wing their way with : pleasure.” Never did clock so sweetly tell the ;our s. The illustrations accompanying the Nos. re excellent. Boz is fortunate in living in an age n which the art of engraving lias reached such perfection, and still move fortunate in having lor j sis con temporal ics CrutKshank and G attei mole and Brown; their inimitable illustrations add much force at a effect to the graphic and peculiar deline- i jtions of Boz. In part o, we have an illustration ; fa scene between Miss Benton, Air. Weller, the | eider, and little Toney, Samivel’s son, whom Wel ler, senior, pronounced the “ olessedost boy that ever wos.” The illustrator has done his part faithful y. Here is the scene: Compiler. “Good cv’uin, mum,” said the older Mr Weller, looking in at the door, alter a prelatory tap, rni j afeerd we’ve come in rayther arter tiletime, mum, 1 But the voting colt being full o wicc lias been a . boltin’ and shy in* and' gettin’ his leg over the trace* to si h a extent ihat it lie an t werj soon broke in he’ll wex me into a broken heart, and , then he’ll never be brought out no more, except | to learn his Jet ers from the writ In’ on his grand fathers tombstone.” With these pathetic words, which were address ed to s mething outside the door, about twoloet ..x from the ground, .Mr. Y\ oiler introduced a very small boy, firmly set upon a couple of sturdy legs, who looked as if nothing could ever knock him .own.® Besides having a very round face, strongly ‘ M’-"tling Air. Welter s, and a stout little ot xaetly his build, this young gentleman, standing w in bis legs very wide apart, as il the top boots were familiar to them, actually winked upon the tisekceper with his infant eye, in imitation oi lus granrtallier. "There's a naughty boy, mum, ’ said Air. YY ti ler, bursting with delight, “ Here's a iniraonal Tony. Wos there ever a lililc chap o tour yeai and eight montiis old as vinked his eye at a strange hdy, afore r” As lutlc affee'ed by this observation as by the ‘ormer appeal to his feelings, Master YY eller cle ”ated in the air a small model of a coach-whip, which he carried in his hand, and addressing the ousekeeper with a shrill ** ya —hip. inquired it •he wasAtoing “down the road at which happy adaptation of a lesson he had been taught from m ■y. Mr. Weller could restrain his feelings no anger, hut gave him twopence on the spot. “It's in vain to deny it, mum,” said Mr. Wel ler, “ this here is a boy*alter hi* grandfather’s own ■cart, and beats out all the bo\ s as ever wos oi 'ill le. Tnoiigh, at tlic same time, mum,” added MPWeller, trying to look giavclv down upon his favorite, “it was very wrong on him to want to ampjver all the posts as we come along, and very cruel on him to force poor gr uidfalhe. to lilt ;;n cioss-loggcd over every von o. cm. He vould’nt pass vun single blessed post, mum, and at ' e top o' the lane, there's sevcu-aml-b. rty on ’em • id a row, and wery c’ose together. Here Air. Weller, whose feelings were in a per gtual conflict between pride in his grandson's a ieveou nts, and a sense of hi* own responsibility, ad the importance of impressing him with moral dhs, burst into a fit of laughter, and, suddenly recking himself, remarked in a severe tone, that httle boys as made their grandfathers put ’em over iosts never went to Heaven at any price. By this time the housekeeper had made tea, and littleTonev. placed on a chair beside ner. with his ejes nearly on a level with the top ol the table, 'i' p o\ hied with various delicacies, which yield rd 'dm extreme entertainment. Flic housekeeper w ho seemed ra-her afraid of the child, notwith standing her caresses,) patted him on the head, ’•nd declared that he was the finest boy she had ev er seen. “Y\ y, mum,” said Mr. Weller, “ I don't think 'y'u 11 so t . a many sich, and that's the tiuth. But !l niy son Samivcl w orl d give me my vay, mum, only dispense with Ids —might 1 wenture to s, . r the vurd ‘What woid. Mr. Weller said the housekeep r fr » bliisi ing slightly.
