NAMES IN THE NEW BRITISH PARLIAMENT.
-—■ -♦ In the new Parliament, says a writer in the London Times, only one Cross is left, but there nre two Crossleys and one Crossmau. There is one Will, 'liree Williamses, one Thomas, one Henry, one Richard, one Johns, two Roberts, three Jameses, and three I) .vies, while there is one Green, one Brown, two Gregg, and one White. There is a Lons, and a Round, and a Biggay. While there are four Smiths, (here is only one Jones and one Robinson. Again, there is a Fox, an Otter, a Peacack, a Roe, and a Pinch. There are two Reaches, a Grove, a Pyne, a Flower, a Reed, and a Leake, and, in addition to two Hills, there is a Dyke, a Lane, a Field, and a Temple, but only one instead of three Akers. The new House, like the last, would not be safe without a Tyler, or genuine without a Brand, or able to proceed to basinet without its two darks, and, as it is to be shortlived, it is proper that there should be a Lexton. The new House will coutain three Cooks, and two Frys, two Taylors, one Tanner, two Gardners, one Trotter, two Hunt-fM-s, and two Fowlers, and finally ifc supplies a King.
