Henry Mildmay, might have buried all its inhabitants
before now: - the La Fortunée_ the English Black Hole,
now first known, but which ought to be had in
everlasting remembrance.

At what times or so much as time the
new installed Hulk Inspector has inspected either
of these Hulks my authority has not informed
me: once in the three quarters instead of once in
each quarter one "at least the least" I take for granted:
the pride of new-blown authority must have been
weak indeed if it could not seen gentlemen upon
one installation progress, to sip the first sweets
of office. During what space of time this quarterly
Inspector of scenes of daily abomination has never visited
then is a point I can speak to with confidence:
I say, then, not these six months: so far at least
as an untutored answer from a man of known
intelligence and trustworthiness to a simply enquiring
letter the object of which was carefully and effectually
concealed is to be depended upon, in respect of a
matter of fact thus simple. What, Sir, has not
Portsmouth then do you wish me to understand,
been visited by the Inspector of Hulks in all this
time
? Is it that the Police office could not spare
him
? Oh no, my Lord, the Police office spared
him without difficulty: was it possible in the
nature of things that a Police Office should not
have spared him, should not have spared a gentleman,
to whom by so recent a manifestation of superior pleasure,
his Majesty's Secretary of State made in a matter of duty to go elsewhere? Yes
