who- was a carpenter, was induced, front the
,
most flattering promises, to enliSt in ;111_;
South American army ; he in consegoencoia
scraped together all the property hi wil °rat
find, and went on hoard a ship in the rivet,

thence to the Nore, where his ilhress increased
violently. Unable to have that-medical rind other
necessary care which his complaint regnirekr, habecame worse and worse every day, and at lengtt
those who had the command of the ship deter,

instead of landin:: his clothe's, tools, and otl'e,
property, all was carried away, and he was le'"
without the means of existence, or the least pro
spect of redress whatever.
Time LORD' MAYOR said, be would most

ted that it was not in his power to afford ptm•

stances he related, for the gross injury done bil7i
His Lordship, however, trusted the case %wow
operate as a .warning to others.
