The most wonderful thing connected with the cosmopolitan merchandise displayed in the Lowther Arcade is the apparent recklessness with which the commodities are exposed to the touch of the passers-by, and the enormous apparent confidence which their proprietors appear to place in their customers. The toys are tested, and the minor utilities examined; the musical instruments are sounded at the good pleasure of those without, whether they mean buying or not buying; but be assured, O man of sin―pilferer of small wares and petty larcener―that there is an eye within keenly glancing from some loophole contrived between accordions and tin breast-plates that watches your every movement, and is 'fly,' -to use a term peculiarly comprehensible to dishonest minds―to the slightest gesture of illegal conveyancing.
