"Punch, or the London Charivari, Volume 1, October 16, 1841"


And therefore he is a Conservative Reformer--
Wherefore, having three sides, which are all the same to him--viz. Reform,
Conservatism, and himself--he is an independent member, and has been
described as a Conservative Reformer.
_Quod erat_ double-_face-iendum_.

PROP. II.--PROBLEM.
_From a given point to draw out a Radical Member to a given length._
Let A or his ancestors be the given point, and an A s s the given length;
it is required to draw out upon the point of his ancestors a Radical
member equal to an A s s.
[Illustration]
Connect the A s s with A, his ancestors.
On the A s s and A his ancestors, describe an independent member S R I,
Sir Robert Inglis.
Then with S R I, Sir Robert Inglis, draw out the A s s to G L and S A, or
great literary and scientific attainments.
And with S R I, Sir Robert Inglis, let R Roebuck, be got into a line upon
A, his ancestors.
With the A s s in the middle, describe the circulation of T N, or "Times"
newspaper.
And with SRI, Sir Robert Inglis, as the centre, describe the Circle of the
H of C, or House of Commons.
Then R A, or Roebuck on his ancestors, equals an A s s.
For because the A s s was in the middle of T N, or "Times" newspaper.
Therefore the rhodomontade of G L and S A, or great literary and
scientific attainments, was equal to the braying of an A s s.
