_BROAD GRINS. My Nightgown and Slippers, and other Humorous Works,
Prose and Poetical, of_ GEORGE COLMAN _the Younger. Now first
collected_, with Life and Anecdotes of the Author, by GEORGE B.
BUCKSTONE. Crown 8vo, 500 pages, 7_s._ 6_d._
⁂ _Admirers of genuine old English wit and humour—irresistible and
always fresh—will be delighted with the collected 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._
