HINTS TO COUNTRY COUSINS. -- If you want to buy "good bargains," select the shops which are placarded with "Immense Failure," "Dreadful Sacrifice," &c., and when you have paid your money and taken your goods home, you will find that the "immense failure" is the article you have purchased, and that the "dreadful sacrifice" is confined entirely to your pocket. If you do not know your way about town, enquire of the nearest cabman. Take the contrary direction to the one he tells you, and you will be sure to reach your destination. -- Punch's Almanack.
