George’s due from certainâ€"of his loyal subjects are "more honored in tho 3 breach than in the obscrvance.“ It would certainly surprise King George and Queen Mary if the Lord of the Manor of Addington, in Surrey: should suddenlyappear and plank down on “the Royal ireakfast table the bowl of porridge which constitutes his yearly rent in acknowledgment of his Sover- --:elgn's overlordship. , ”Whether the present owner of the j :Foulis Estates in Scotland regularly 5 pays his rent we cannot say, or whether the King, as is likely, shuts ‘ “his 'eyes to the omission of the bucket- dulof snow which is his rightful due.

It is called the "King's isflaliipenny"; but, as a matter of fact, "every cottager on the island pays a farthing, every cottage with a gap den a halfpenny, and every man with an acre of. land or more threepence. This is called “quit rent."
