titute of strength to resist them. It is impassible

to have a sincere regard for those whom we
nutlet esteem, and, therefore, the King of PRUS-
sit cannot regard S.vedem as personally his
friend. This fee:ing ass}, be traced in the Prussian
Note. Ir has no one chsra.fer of troth or sin-
entity. While pro:e.siing impartiality, it advocates
the cause of France, and condemns the cocdnet of
Sweden A peelers ignorant of Europe, on reading
it. would suppose that France was some feeble u.s-
offendin:; SM., and that Sweden, an immense tur-
bulent And amil:t;reis neighbone, was seeking An op_
pnrtueity to devour it. Having thus far noticed
the spirit of this State Paper, in relation to Sweden
21 an ird.vidtal power, let us now leak at it in
reference to Europe. lirse SPARTC invaded, pltmder-
ed, and is-messes the Eleftorate of Hanever. He
violated the terr:tory of Baden, by sanding An arm-
ed banditti to seize the Duke D'Em o nice, and he
afterwards vinlated the neutrality of klamburgh, by
the unsure of Sir GLOROE Kt'stsc• in a like
manner. These were all dire& atta•%s, insults,
and aggressions, against the King of PRUSSIA,
his boasted capacity as Guardian of the
tranq•tillity of the North of Germany. Is this
tteen the state of things, the beneilts of which
l`ce,siA is determined to preserve to Europe by
every means in her power ? Dies she mean to say.
that in atsiform system of violence on the one part,
and of pensive suhrnissionon the other, is tranquil-
lity, and that the want of spirit or strength to resist
oppression is security and peace ? Such, however, is
the dparine incalcatel in the Prussian note. If then
PILAW* be inserhihle to her own wrong;, how can
are esoei that bbe will feel fee the wmngs of other•.?
It wouln I}4, ilte to presume that the An ...;o:ion
of Genoa, of L wee, or Asy remote enterprise

Imo

• ,Sce the lust Pig&

have any eiell upon her. Th • ieltilt of all this
is, that Prussia has determined upon a system of
passive obedience to the will a France; from which
no insults on the siJe of Box A AAA R. nor encou-
ra;ement and support on the side of the other
pomers of Europe can possibly drive her ; and that
ih-cot only recommends this system by her exam-
ple, but is rea,ly to enforce it by her threats. This
roust prove a most ungrateful discovery to those
relying upon their knowledge of human na-
tti•e, considered Prussia at heart the enemy of Bo-
x A ar E. ft is, indeed, almost decisive against any
efficient alliance upon the Continent against France.
It is generally conceived, that nothing short of a
combination of all the other principal powers of Eu-
rope can set limits to her ambition ; but, of this,
there can be no hope at present. Should Russia and
Sweden unite in hostilities against France, the Prus-
sian note informs us that they would find Prussia on
the side of their enemy. S ,rry should we be to
underrate the strength of Russia, or the valour of
the Swedes ; but, we will vnstnre to say, that
the event of such a contest would be to plunge
Europe into sew calamities, and to render the
recovery of her freedom still more difficult. It is
doubtful whether the co-operation of Austria would
make any material alteration. There can be no
confederacy on the Continent that affords a reason-
able hope of success against France that does not
include Prussia. Without her, Russia, Sweden, and
Austria, would be an arch, without a key-stoat.
They would be so many disjointed pieces, which
could not afford mutual support. If we look at the
immense French force coUe:ted in Italy, and consi-
der that Switzerland is, for every purpose of offen-
sive operation, a part of France, even the most co ,-
fident must fear that the fate of Austiia would he de-
cided before Russia and Sweden could enter the field.

Some of the Prints continue to maintain, that 11
the letters from Barbatioes, it appears that the
Combined Fleet were still at Mar. inique on the
t4th. The last letters from liarbadoes are &tea
on the Oth, and that island lies so fir to the wiod-
ward, that a vessel would be th'ee days in working
up from St. Lucia, in sight of Marzini.fite. hence
it cannot be ascertained that the enemy's 4quadron
was at Martinique beyond the 22d.

1171.1. EGERTON'S GRAND MASQUERADE.

This Lady's Masquerade last night was given
upon a most Magnificent scale at her house in Al-
bemarle-street. There WAS a most beautiful pavi-
lion formed at each side of the entrance, joined by
a triumphant arch, through which the company
passed. It was decorated with the finest flowers,
and variegated lamps in wreaths. The most aro-
matic shrubs filled the pavilion ; a transparency of
a gigantic mask was placed in the centre of the
etch. The walls were decorated with wreaths of
flowers, in true lovers' knots, and the most ludicrous
masks interspersed, so that Meerut and his merry
train seized on you the moment you entered the
house. The staircase was decorated with gar-
hods of flowers, and lighted by rows of small
lamps round the dome, and a most beautiful cott•
vex lustre with reflecting lights. At the entrance
of the great drawing room were placed grotesque
figures, and a most beautiful bronze figure on a
white marble pedestal. holding in one hand a branch
with wax tapers, and, with the other extended, di-
recting the company into ,his superb apartment.
The cieling is most beautifully carved, and in the
Mame a most magnificent diamond-cut chandelier.
The walls were covered with white muslin, with
pink muslin draperies; edged with brown silk friage,4
festooned in pannels ; two glasses of amazing
size were placed opposite each other, with pink
muslin, tied in true-lovers knots, round them. and
convex lustres placed on each side. The windows
and fire places were tilled with shrubs, intermized
with variegated lamps. The floor of the second
room was chalked, with the Prince's feather in the
centre, and the anchor at the bottom. From thence
the company passed through a corridor fitted up as a
Turkish tent, with an alabast:r Lamp in the (enter,
burning aromatic incense. The tent led to a fourth
apartment, which was most tastefully ornamented
with sky blue drapery, looped up by festoons of roses.
—This room was also beautifully chalked The
Prince's feather, the rake, the scythe, and the
sickle, were among its devices. Three supper rooms
were prepared in the most magnificent style. The
first was for the Pelee?. : the table was covered
with gold ornaments, gold cuos of immense value,
and the finest Seve china. In the second supper
room taqes were laid all round ; and the third WAS
a tent laid for ISO persons About twelve o'clock

COURT OF KING's.ISENCH. AA _:111141N.T1.11, Jt Lst 4.
Silting. et Nit,' Priiss itfore Lord EL LEN DO ROUGH.
BENNET r. FREEMAN.
This *as to anion brought to recover a penalty
bpon the Game Laws of 51. against the Defendant,
for unlawfully keeping a gun for the purpose of sk-
stroying game.
Mr. 'Pours°, in stating the case of the Plaintiff,
observed that, although there were a sort of action
which was not coantenanced by Courts and Juries,
yet he was satisfied this would meet the approbation
of both. The Defendant was a blacksmith. resid-
ing at Hamm,rstuith, and, on Sunday the loth of
February last, in company with three other persons,
with two guns and tie dogs, setters, pointers, and
spaniels, were ranging the fields, and beating the
grounds belonging to the Plaintiff, at Chiswick, ad-
joining his Grace the Duke of Devonshire's, for the
purpose of killing game. Samuel Bennet, brother
to the Plaintiff, who was game-keeper of the manor
under the Dean and elripter (,f St. Paul's, seeing
the party, and aware of their intention, accosted
them, and demanded their guns, as they had no
right to <loot there ; upon which they all began to
abilse him, an 4 the Defendant pulled off his coat,
and threatened to fight him. The Learned Counsel
concluded with some severe and pointed animad-
versions upon rrsons using such praftices, particu-
larly ova the Sabbath.
Samuel Bennett was the only witness called on the
part of the Plaintiff, he stated the above fans: he
said the Duke of Devonshire's park abounded in
partridges, pheasants, and hares, which frequently
used to come into his grounds. He saw the De-
fendant and the other three persons land from a
boat, and heat the fields. Two of them were sea-

termen, and the third, with the Plaintiff, were those
who carried guns; they ranged the fields, and had,
he was certain, five dogs, which appeared to him
to be setters, spaniels, and pointers.
Mr. GA ii Row, for the Defendant, observed, that
the question was, whether the Defendant had kept a
gun for the destration of game, or had he a setting
dog for the same purpose? If persons were to be
subject to the Game Laws merely for carrying a gun,
he wished to know what must be the consequence in
these times, when every man carries one for the dc.
fence of his King and country ? In t}.e present case,
not even the feather of partridge or pheasant had
been so mochas touched. and the sporting dogs were
reduced to a single Newfoundland dog, who never
set a bird in his life—never put up any kind of
game—and, above all, knew nothing whatever of
the game laws. As to himself, he never had killed
a head of game in all his life, but, when he was at
his country residence, which be now panted for, he
used to amuse himself with walking out with his
great Newfoundland dog, and a brace of pi ants,
Dun Quixote like. and fire at a mark; and some.
times tie carried a double-barrelled tin. If this
Mr. Bennet had thus seen him, !se supposed he
would conjure hia dog into a pack of hounds, and
the sea-galls into so many pheasants and partridges.
The Era. he said, was, that these persons went out
after their week's hard labcur to try a new gunond
kill a few larks, without the slightest intention of
killinc any kind of '...Arne, which they neither saw,
seat far, or even thought of.
Three witnesses, being the persons who ncentn-
panied the Defendant on this excursion, wete called,
and proved these faas ; the only dogs with them
ware the dog alluded to by Mr. Garrow, being a
saaagrela between a Newfoundland and spaniel, and
it wire-haired terrier ; they merely went oat to try the
gun, and only shot at a few skylarks.
Lord Etter: stational. in charging the Jury, ob-
served, that it must be proved they were eau:illy in
pur‘uit of the game. If ranging about the field,
with so many dogs, and of such a description as ap-
peared nn the Plaintiff's evidence, the fair inference
was, that of keeping a gun and dogs for the de-
struftion of game.—Verditt for the Defendant.
THE cossaissioseas AND GOVERNORS 011 ORLIN-
WICH HOSPITAL W. HOOPER.
This was a Writ of Visquiry to assess damages
upon a conditional Bond for 501. The Defendant
had suffered judgment to go by default.
Mr. GA RRow stated, that the great objeCt of this
aftion was to give it publicity, and to teach persons
in the same situation of the Defendant that they were
not to be guilty of the like with impunity. He then
stated, that at Greenwich there was a school for the
education of the sons of sailors, who were put out
apprenticesto seafaring men, who wet e bound along
with two sureties is those bonds, that they would
not put them to any trade but that of the sea. The
Defendant, in this case, had taken a boy of the name
of Samuel Penrose Whittle, and, after being twelve
mouths at sea, suffered him to go to a shoemaker ;
at present he was a labourer in Deptford. This was
a case of 'great national importance, as it tended to
deprive the navy of the services of many useful
members. This practice had grown latterly too
frequent, and it was highly necessary that persons
entering into those contrafts with the Governors
should know they are liable to be called upon to pay
the penalty.
These fads being proved, the Jury assessed the
damages at twenty shilliags.
A similar khan was also tried against John
Anon, one of the sureties, and the same damages
assessed.
SOUSE 9. CLIFT.
This was an Adios; for an assault. The panics
resided at Stamford in Lincolnshire, and were next
door neighbours. A quantity of dirt was lying be-
fore the Plaintiff's door. and the Defendant, who
was a brewer, desired his men to take it away; upon

On remove it himself, when the Plaintiff snatched up
a spade, and in a menacing manner resisted him;
upon which the Defendant struck him a violent
blow with the shovel in the face, cut him despe-
rately, arid made him bleed profusely.
The Court considered that the Plaintiff, from the
threatening manner of holding up the spade, had
given the first provoca•inn, though the Defendant
bad aCte.l with great violence and brutality—and the
Plaintiff was 'awaited. _

little 'troy, sun of
,she PlainAilf, WAS accordingly sent
to the Defendants shop kir three trtarterns of gin :
the latier's wife was serfring three Gentlemen
butchers, and in giving theft their change, as it was
stated, took up the boy's money and gave them a
farthing nut of it ; by some miltake, the money was
put by, and when the boy demanded his gin, she
refused, saying he had not paid for it ; he returned
home, and related what had happened to his mother,
who, accompanied by her neighbour, 'Ms. Castle,
went to the gin shop, and desired to have either the
gin or the money ; a dispute arose, and the Do-
tenant, who was then at the tap behind the bar,
came round. and, using some abusive expressions,
pushed the Plaintiff, Mrs. Harrison, with great vio-
lence, out of the shop, by which her arm and leg
were much bruised, and she continued ill from it
for some time after.

On tite part of the Defendant he endeavoured to
prove, that the loquacity of the lady was so loud as
to disturb the house ; he therefore desired her to go
about her business, but, persisting in her demands,
he corned her out.

The Jury found a verdiSl of 40s. for the Plaintiff.

DAI.L V. GRAY.
This was an anion brought to recover tke Plain-
tiff's watch, which the Defendant had pawned.
The parties were millrights, and one evening at
a public house, in company with several other per.
sons of the trade, a conversation took place respect-
ing a man who had worked contrary to the regula-
tions of the trade. This assertion was controverted by
some of the patty, and a wager of a guinea was
proposed between the Plaintiff and ore Flint the
stakes to be deposited in the Defendant's hands, and
the wager to be decided by the Committee who re-
gulated the trade, on the following Monday. Flint
immediately deposited a guinea, but the Plaintiff,
not having any cash about him, gay- his watch.--
When he had retired, Flint and the Defendant
agreed, that the latter should pawn the watch for a
guinea, and they would drink it ; the watch was ac-
cordingly pawned, and the amount drank between
them.

Some time after, the Defendant met the Plaintiff,
and offered him the pawn broker's ticket. which,
upon his refusing to take, the former threateatd
that he would get another guinea on it to di ink.
The Plaintiff, never having received his watch back
again, brought this aElion.
Upon the examination, however, of the first Wit-
ness, it appeared that the wager was taken down in
writing, and not being produced, the Plaintiff was
non;mited.

MAINE o. ICILLET.
This was an afion upon a Bill of Exchange, for
3201. I Bs. 6d. against the acceptor.
The Plaintiff had sold it quantity of hops to the
Defendant, for which the Bill ri question WAS giv.•n ;
I'm the latter not having talc.n them away in time,
the Plaintiff sold them, and brought this action tor
the difference.

Mr. Gika Row, for the Defendant, obje6ted that,
inasmuch as the hops had never been delivered, the
Plaintiff could not recover in this sort of affirm;
but it appearing in evidence that tha Defendant had
assented to the non-delivery of the hops until the
bill should be paid, Tim' EI.I.LNIMILOUGH thought
that, as the payment of the bill was to precede the
delivery of the goods, the Plaintiff had a right to
recover in this aaion, at:l a verds of 1001. was ac-
cordingly found for the Pl.niniff.

Yesterday se.'nnight, a foreigner was seen in her.
mondsey-Stilds, by a number of labouring men, in
the ad of discharging a pistol a. his head; but it
not taking effeet, he laid himself down to re-toad it.
He was, however, immediately disarmed, and was
taken to his apartments at Wslw.rth, when he
proved to be an Es-Nobleman of France.
A sporting Clergyman, at a late coursing meeting
in Wiltshire, produced a dog that beat the whole
county. A Nobleman, who h:td a great value for
the sport, admit ed the dog much, and wished to have
him. The Clergyman observed this, and, hearing
that his Lordship bad same church preferments in
his gift, was not backward in displaying his dog
" He runs well, indeed," said his Lordship; " Yes,"
riplied the Parson, " he does ; but I'll tell your
Lordship bow it is: he is a Itungry dog, and runs—
a (syn." His Lordship took the hint, and
made the dog his own.

to their duty.

soners of war, upon their parole at Lichfield, fought
a duel with pistols, near that city. One of the com-
batants fell, having received a dangerous wound in
his hip, from whence the ball penetrated to his back;
the other, with the seconds, made off from the fii Id
of battle, and have not been discovered. The
wolltnded Gentleman is in a fair way of recovery,
