All things have brad-end all beads are liable to change Every fentence and opinion advanced and fupported by Mr. Shandy, on the influence and utility of a well-chofen furname, may be properly applied in fhewing the recommendations and advantages which refult from placing a ftriking title-page before a book, or an inviting HEAD on the front page of a NEWS-PAPER A HEAD fo placed, like thofe bead, which once ornamented Temple Bar, or thofe of the Great Attorney or Great Centraler which, not long fince, were confpicuously elevated for their great actions, and were exhibited in wooden frames, at the Eal and W-ends of this metropolis, never fails of attracting the eyes of pallengers, though indeed we do not expeft toexperience the lenity fhewn to thefe great exbibitors; for probably THE TIMES will be pelted without mercy.

Ma. WALTER, patenter of the Legographic, or Vice-The immortal Locks gives eviPress, cannot omit his tribute of thanks for the dence to the truth of this obfervation. That great philofopher has declared that, though repeatedvery great encouragement which his endeavours ly taken in, he never could withstand the folicita to improve the art of printing have experienced tions of a well-drawn title-page-authority fuffcient to juftify as in affuming a new brad, with a tial in its reports. new jet of features, but not with a design to impofe; for we flatter ourselves the HEADS of THE TIMES will not be found deficient in intelles, but the public in a pamphlet on a future day; at pre-by putting a new face on affairs, will be admired fent he will only mention a very recent one.

Efq., came of age laft Thursday. The entertainments on the occafion were very fplendid, and the celebration kept at The indifpofition of Lord Salisbury is a public evil; and to do his Herefordshire neighbours juftice they think fo, independent of their Chriamas difappointment. Other and honourable feelings operate more upon the occafion. Great expectations are formed of Mr. Fitzberbert talents in the important poft to which he has lately been appointed; and we are ready to believe that he will amply fulfil them. But of this we are rather certain, that however he may furmount the attacks of the Hibernian politicians, if the jolly fellows once get him amongft them, they will foon make him feel a want of under flarding. The MINISTER, among his late acquifitions, has obtained a gift of an under WAISTCOTE, which, however, he has ordered to be bung up in his wardrobe, not wifhing to wear near his beart a vestment that has come from the enemy, and which, like the birt prefented by Dejianira to Hercules, is probably poisoned, and would rather raife a blister than prove of falutary effect. THE UNIVERSAL REGISTER, from the day of its first appearance to the day of its confirmation has like TRISTRAM Sufered from innumerable cafualities, both laughable and ferious, arifing from its name, which on its introduction was immediately curtailed of its fair proportion by all who called for it, the word Universal being univerfally omitted, and the word Regifter, only, being retained. "Boy, bring me the Regifter. The waiter anfwers, "Sir, we have not a li brary, but you may fee it at the New Ex change Coffee House." Then I'll fee it there," anfwers the disappointed politician, and he goes to the New Exchange and calls for the Register; upon which the waiter tells him he cannot have it if he is not a fubfcriber-or prefents him with the Court and City Regifter, the Ola Annual Regifler, or the New Annual Register; or if the Coffee Houfe be within the Purlieus of Covent Garden, or the Hundreds of Drury-flips into the politician's hand "Harrif's Regifler of Ladies. For these and other reafons, the parents of the UNIVERSAL REGISTER have added to its original name that of the TIMES, THEATRE.

We are rejoiced for the best reason in the world-because it will promote the joy of others that the report of Mr. Hobart having retired from the Richmond Theatre is entirely without foundation. Where mirth, good humour, and elegant feftivity prevail, especially if they thould be heightened by the comic icene, Mr Hobart cannot be easily spared. On Friday evening, there was a private concert at the house of Mr. Billington, in Poland Street, at which there were forae of the fr-she railers in the kingdom. A more particular ac count of it probably will be given in this paper on a future day.
