What became of him afterwards, nobody knows and nobody cares, but, one
thing is certain, he was _persuaded_ to go to sea, and _Punch_ (born 17
July) devotes a page (vol. i., p. 46) to "The Boy Jones's Log," a portion
of which is as follows:

"This mellancholly reflexion threw me into a poeticle fitte, and
though I was werry uneasy in my _stommik_, and had nothing to rite on
but my _chest_, I threw off as follows in a few 2nds, and arterards
sung it to the well-none hair of 'Willy Reilly':--

"Oakum to me, {156} ye sailors bold,

To follow Chronology compels me to turn suddenly from gay to grave
topics. In September, 1833, Newman commenced the _Tracts for the Times_,
which, according to its advertisement, had the object of "contributing
something towards the practical revival of doctrines (such as the
Apostolic Succession, and the Holy Catholic Church) which, although held
by the great divines of our Church, have become practically obsolete with
the majority of her members." Keble and others joined him at once, as
did Pusey as soon as the state of his health permitted, together with
nearly all the advanced thinkers at Oxford. These Tracts, issued from
time to time, caused a mighty upheaval in the Church of England, which
was known as the "Tractarian movement," the effects of which have lasted
to this day, as may be witnessed in the vast extension of Church
building, the larger attendance and more devout behaviour of
congregations, the brighter and more ornate services, which are so great
a contrast to the general sleepiness both of pastor and flock which then
