1832,] Classic Mottos for the. Tories. 615 



JOHN WILSON CROKER. 



" Otium cum dignitate." 



Of otium soon he'll have his fill, 



From national concerns so weighty ; 

 But faith ! 'twere hard to frame a Bill 



Would give John Wilson dignitate. 



SIR CHARLES WETHERELL. 



*' Igneus est olli vigor." 



No dusky path his genius takes to fame ; 

 The blaze of towns on fire surrounds his name. 

 Torch of his country, flambeau of the Tories, 

 Bristol bears smoking witness to his glories : 

 His was no vulgar plan of conservation ; 

 He burned a city to preserve a nation. 







MR. A. BARING. 



" Venit summa dies, et ineluctable tempus." 



Britain has seen her last and darkest day ; 

 My own dear Calling-ton's in schedule A : 

 Nipped like a violet in her beauteous bloom ;* 

 Avert, just heaven ! my harmless borough's doom ! 



THE MARQUIS OF LONDONDERRY JB!. 



.. -~ ,. A 



" Conditur omne 



Stellarum vulgus, fugiunt sine nomine signa." 



Vane rises lo ! each lesser fire 



Hides its diminished head ; 

 The ministerial lights expire, 



The star of Grey is fled. 



The cheek of Brougham and Vaux turns pale, 



He feels his splendour wane ; 

 Plunket himself is known to. quail, 



Before the might of Vane, 



HENRY HUNT, ESQ., M. P., Blacking-maker to the Bench of Bishops. 

 " Hie niger est; hunc tu Romane caveto ! " 



Friends of Reform ! disdain his treacherous aid : 

 His character is blacker than his trade. 



* Who can forget Mr. Baring's happy metaphor for a rotten borough 1
