HENRY AND EMMA. By John Newlands. (Jenkins. 7s. 6d.)—A simple-minded

tale of a simple-minded Cockney couple, who lived in a-cul-de-sac, won some money in a sweep, and longed for honest poverty again. The wit is a matter of misplaced H's ; but Enery and Hemma are obviously anxious to please, and everybody's heart at least is in the right place.
