Jarrock's Jaunts and Jollities is the title of a reprint

of several smartly-written sketches that enlivened the New sporting Maga- zine, ridiculing Cockney sportsmen. Mr. Jarrocks, a City grocer, a sort of Pickwick on horseback, is the butt of the author's slang wit ; which, though it has a strong dash of vulgarity, is not ill- natured. Some etchings, by" Pinz," carry out the humour of the adventures ludicrously enough.
