are all struck with its extraordinay beauty and fidelity of delinea-

NELSON.DINNER.
"PRAND II7M"—PUBLIC NOTICE.—BR A ND-E D.
The Operatives of the metropolis, the people, &c., are requested to
hear in mind the fact that prior to George the Third's reign all the
Parliamentary enactments, &c., as recorded, were In the Latin
language, the which, jesuitically admits of two interpretations,
namely, an English and Latin signification " fair to the ear, but
false to the eye" From which circumstance, the unremunerated
Masons of the " Strike," will now learn (vide undersigned letter
in the " Morning Advertiser" i❑ reference), also that the free land
allotted on which Nelson's pillar stands, was granted by the present
Greenwich unaudited and irresponsible trust over 3,000,000 sterling
yearly, from (in their possession) all tlie charities of England* for the
relief of the "sick, hurt, and maimed" in coutiirmity with this Act,
appertaining by its verbiage to the " trade, navigation, and naval
strength of Great Britain" as proclaimed under the 2d Queen Anne,
This Act of 1703 provides, under its Commission, that " a refreshing
Prandium, genus zonce," as the girdle of yearly investigation, should
have place by free Representation Parliament, as the " refreshing at
noon-day ;" not as belly cheer for the gross body, but as food for
the mind's eye of posterity. Thus the discerning will view the
hypocritcal intent, " Dinner-proml" of the Greenwich pensioners
friends disposed of, as further made apparent by the " statua" pence,
collected as a Prandium, otherwise " doticum est mane" mark, or
nuptial grace endowry, as footing money, received by those pensioners
deputed by the " trust lit to bring in the monies" as the " Com-
mission decrees," and the said dinner humbug defines under the fol-
lowing, as in 1733 scratched on the base of the effigy in St. Paul's
Churchyard :
" Queen Anne she's gone, and left us in the lurch,
Her face against the Brand Ey'rie-shop,t her back against the
church."
The aforesaid, explains the reason for the undersigned demanding,
on the part of the public, if the word DINNER was to be understood
in the knife and fork acceptation of the term, or the Latin significa-
tion. The Chairman Sir Edward Codrington was dumb-foundered,
and hence " the disturbance to the clique" in a cleft-stick, men-
tioned in yesterday's London papers.
