Yesterday morning, about 11 o'clock, a vveir-
known vagrant fell down on the pavement in High-street.
Islington, and pretended to be in strong convulsions, and
kicked and tore himself in a violent manner. Several
humane persons passing by stopped and sympathized with
the " poor fellow," and it was expected that every moment
would be his list, and he was placed on a table or bench,
and halfpence and silver poured in upon him. At length
Brown, the beadle of Islington parish, happened to pass
by, and at the time a gentleman forced a glass of brandy
down the man's throat. Brown, knowing the fellow to
be an infamous imposter, said, "Oh ! a little salt and
water would serve him to bring the brandy up again, I'll
_go and get a glass." He brought a glass of salt and
water, which had no sooner been placed to his lips than
he started up and gave Brown a tremendous blow on the
eye, which blackened and puffed it up dreadfully, and he
made off with the greatest speed. He was pursued and
taken into custody, when he gave his name Welch, and
being brought to Hatton•gat den, he was committed to the
House of Correction to hard labour for two months.

NEAR THE HEART.—The New York
Courier says, in answer to the question, on which side of
a lady a gentleman should ride? "On the left, to be
sure, for then he will always be nearest her heart."
" Yes ; but if he rides on her right, then she Kill be
nearest his heart. So you see it may be a matter of choice
after all."
