The Cellar of the Parliament House is taken as the Publishing Office of this new Magazine.  Guy gives himself out as a "Dealer in the General Line" and as a blind hangs over his shed the following placard:
"Will be opened on the Fifth of November"
As the Magazine is to consist principally of light articles and squibs, Guy proceeds to lay in a few trifles that are likely to make it go off. A barrel of gunpowder intended for the opening number is smuggled in, under the disguise of "Butter". Guy chuckles over these preparations for undermining the Constitution.
