a close investigation, by some medical men, one of
the villains confessed that a pernicious ointment bad
been applied to the eyes, purposely to injure the
sight. Several of them have been taken op; and,
upon as investigation of the business on Friday
last, before Mr. Gaon ass, the Magistrate. and Mr.

very considerably increased, in consequence of so
great a diminution of the Scheme's numbers from
the first day's drawing. How critical, then, is the
