*** _Admirers of genuine English wit and humour will be delighted
with this edition of George Colman's humorous works. As a wit,
he has had no equal in our time; and a man with a tithe of his
ability could, at the present day, make the fortune of any one of
our so-called "comic journals," and bankrupt the rest._
