Cartoons Social and Political. By " Cynieus." (" Cynicus "

Studio, 69 Drury Lane.)—Granted that a satirist is not bound to truth and justice, these cartoons may be praised. Their savage force no one can question. The draughtsman hits round im- partially. Capital and Labour, Church Law, and Physic, the Promoter of Companies, and the Director of Companies come in alike for the lash. But the effectiveness of the blow is not increased by this distribution. " Defendit numerus." If every- body is vile, no one really deserves blame.
