'Lounger' reflects on Melbourne's recent political and social events. He includes a comment on a Melbourne journal that purports to give 'a fair representation of the opinions expressed in the leading columns of the principal Victorian newspapers'. The journal states that it will, 'as much as possible', quote 'the very words' of the original items, but will at least preserve their 'pith and spirit'. On the evidence of a 'quoted' item from the Argus, 'Lounger' is inclined to doubt this undertaking. (AustLit has not yet established which journal 'Lounger' was writing about.)
