THE HAUNCH OF VENISON.

At Number One dwelt Captain Drew,
George Benson dwelt at Number Two,
(The street we'll not now mention):
The latter stunn'd the King's Bench bar,
The former. being lam'd in war,
Sung small upon a pension !
Tom Dewitt knew them both—than he
None deeper in the mystery
Of Culinary knowledge ;
From Turtle soup to Stilton cheese,
Apt student, taking his degrees
In Alas. Rundell's College!
Benson to dine invited Tom ;
Proud of an invitation from
A host who " spread" so nicely,
Tom answer'd, ere the ink was dry,
" Extremely happy—come on Fri.
Day next, at six precisely !"
Dewitt, with expectation fraught,
Drove np at six, each savoury thought
Ideal turbot rich in :
Butt, ere he reach'd the winning-post,
Ile saw a Haunch of Ven'son roast,
Down in the next door kitchen
Hey ! 7:minds! what's this a haunch at brew's'!
I must drop in : I can't refuse:
To pass were downright treason:
To cut George Benson's not quite staunch;
But the provocative--a haunch !
Zounds ! it's the first this season!
Ven'son, thou'rt mine ! I'll talk no more—"
Then rapping thrice at Benson's door,
" John, I'm in such a hurry'
Do tell your master that my aunt
Is paralytic, quite aslant; , •
I must be off for Surry !"
Now Tom at next door makes a din—
" Is Captain Drew at home ?"—" Walk in—"
" Drew, how d'xe do?"—" What ! Biewltt I"
" Yes, I—you've ask II me, many a day,
To drop in, in a quiet way,
So now I'm come to do it !"
" I'm very glad you have," said Drew,
" rve nothing but an Irish stew—"
Quoth Tom (aside), " Nu matter,
'Twon't do—my stomach's up to that,— •
lie by, till the lucid fat
Comes quiv'ring on the platter!"
" You see your dinner, Tom," Drew-cried.
" No, but I don't, though," Tont replied :
" I smek'd below,"—" What ?"—"Ven'scn—
A haunch"—" Oh, true. it is not mine,
/Hy neighbour has some ftiends to dine :"
" Your neighbour! who?"—" George Benson!
11:-. chimney smok'd ; the scene to change,
I It: :.im have my kitchen range,
While his was newly :
The Ven'son you obsetv'd below,
Went home just half an hour ago;
I guess it's now demolish'd!
6, Tom why that look of doubtful dread ?
Conic,, help yourself to 'A and bread,
Don't sit with hands and knees up ;
But dine, for once, off Irish stew,
And read the Dog and Shadow' through,
When next yon open .I'.sop !"

XING'S THFATRE.—The pet formances on Saturday
were all excellent, and of course went off with uni-
rersal applause. In the brilliant circle were her
Royal Highness the Duchess of KENT, Pt ince ESTER-
BATY, and a most splendid and numerous display of
fashionable company. •
D KDRY-LANE.—The Comedy of Speed the Plough
was performed at this Theatre on Saturday, in which
Mr St'.Wesr played the character of Miss BlanclArd
with infinite naircig and grace; NIUNDEN, as Sir Abel,
was in his finest vein of humour, the quality of which
really seems to ripen with his age; Mr. LOVEDAY
played Farmer Ashficld with the most genuine feeling
of rough, energetic honesty ; Coorea was effective in
henry, and the whole went off with great eclat.
CovEstr-Gminns.—The Stare was performed at,
this Theatre on Saturday evening, with the much-
admired Melo-Drama of Chary and Fair Star ;
her Royal Highness the Pt incess AUGUSTA was pre-
sent for the third time since the production of this
splendid spectacle.
TnE PAREs.—Yesterday, between the hours of four
and six, Hyde, the Regent's, and Green Parks, I
were crowded. In fashion these is still nothing new.
Striped silks, after a French pattern, ate much in
vogue for dresses. The small cottage bonnet of straw
is making way in high life, without feather, or even
rihands. There were a surprising number of cabriolets,
a la Cavity:-; the horses mostly all of the Arabian
breed. Among the landaus were those belonging to,
The Princess Esterhazy, Duchesses of Grafton, Leeds, Marl-
blrough, Portland, Alontrose Marchionesses of Hertford.
Downshire, Plan:lion!, Stafford, Conyngham ; Countesses Grey,
lluckinghanishire, normal, St. Antonio, Wilton, Clare Glen-
gall, Derby; Ladies G. Cavendish; Laminon, W. li;ntinck,
Granville, Greville, I lampslen ; Mrs. hope, Mrs. Arbuthnot, kc.
The Regent's Park was crowded with equipages
from three till four o'clock : the company then pro-
eceded to Hyde Park, by Cumberland-gate, in regu-
lar line, from tbe•New-road.
At Caistor cattle market, on Saturday se'nnight, Mr.
ADK 114, of Colsterworth, near Grantham, had the mis-
fortune to rose his pocket-1)66k, containin 3401. He
immediately had it cried in the market, offering 201.
'reward to the person who should restore it; but it
was not found until the Monday morning following,
when he, by most extraordinary good fortune, found
it himself, and all its contents.
While the Disienters ask—and most reasonably—
to be placed on a footing of independence, in respect
of marriage, with tl:e Quakers and the Jews—the
Synod of Glasgow gravely petitions against the ad-
mission of Catholic Peers is the Upper House. In
a hat manner can these discordant applications be re-
conciled ? Assuredly not on the ground of liberality
and Christian charity.
DUIELLINGr—A letter from New Orleans, dated the
• 36thof February, states the following facts :+" There
has been some fashionable and serious fighting here.
Judges Favrot and Henand fought with bread swords!
The former was killed, the latter supposed to be
mortally wounded. Lawyer Christie shot Scallan, the
auctioneer, in the thigh. How much more useful,
and may I say honourable, would it have been if
those men had shed their blood off Cape Antonio."
' Meaning, we suppose, in fighting congenial spirits,
the Pirates.—Americar, Paper.
Dult..--At an early hour on Friday morning a
meeting took place in the fields at the back of the
Montpelier Tavern, Camberwell, between Lieutenant
K—, R.N. and Mr. M'—, a medical student at-
tending the Hospitals. • The Lieutenant was attended
to the field by a brother Officer, and Mr. M'— by
his brother, who is a respectable surgeon. At the
first fire, the Lieutenant was struck in the right arm
• by his adversary's ball, which lacerated the flesh,
but the wound is'by no means dangerous. The affair
then terminated.

The prosecutric is a milk-maid; in the service of a
cowkeeper in Maiden-lane, Islington, of no very pre-
possessing appearance, and the prisoner is an Irish
labourer. She had known him as sweetheart to her
first cousin, and having met him on Saffron-hill. she
asked him to see her home. When he got her into
Maiden-lane, he effected his purpose, which she.ex.,
Alined in no e'er} delicate language. Ile then wished
to bring her back towards London, when they met
two officers, who asked her what was the matter with
her ? and she told them that the prisoner h:td ill-used
her, 011 which he said that the prosecuttix was his
wife. She denied that, and said she wished to go to
her master's house, but that the prisoner would not
,let her. The officers then took her to her mater's
house, and made the prisoner go there too. She
swore, that when the Offence was committed she was
not more than twenty yards from her master's house,
who, with' her mistress, was at home, and that she was
hallooing and screaming all the while. She neyer
told her misttess until a week after, nor any one else.

Mr. Justice PARKE then stopped the case, -and di-
rected the Jury to acquit the prisoner, which they.
did accordingly.
The following were also acquitted :
William Hemmings, of stealing a breast c;f mutt& ; John
Builds, of stealing gibs. of mutton ; Jame, Allen, of stealing
albs. of tnute.an ; and Wrn. Brian, of stealing :17s.

3IIDDLESF.X SESSIONS.
• Saturday, James Smith was indicted for keeping a
disorderly house, No. 45, Chitties-street, Drury•-lane.
Mr. PLATT (with whom was Mr. PRENDEUGAST), for
the prosecution, stated that the house mentioned was
one of the most notorious in that street, where, only
a few weeks ago, a fellow-creature lost his life by vio-
lence, in being thrown out of a window. The Learned
Counsel admitted that, sub modo, such houses ought.
to exist in such a place as London ; but, in doing so,
he forcibly appealed to the Court and Jury whether
a whole neighbouthood was to be annoyed, in the
very worst manner, by the continued noise, night
after night, of the loose characters of both sexes, and
these of the very lowest order, u•ho frequented these'
houses. The present prosecution, Mr. Platt stated,
was brought forward, not by the parish, but by a re-
spectable individual, Mr. Joseph Oates, who was,
from his situation as a parish officer, but too well
acquainted with the gross iniquities which were too
often carried on in Charles-street. The Learned
Counsel stated that this was only the first of a num-
ber of prosecutions which the same public-spirited in-
dividual intended to carry on against the infamous
houses in that street. The conduct of the present de-
fendant was of the very worst kind ; previous to this
prosecution tieing instituted, he was offered not to be
prosecuted if he would abate the nuisance ; he pro-
mised to do so, hut did not. All the prosecutor
wanted was, by a verdict of the Jury, to convince the
defendant and others leading such infamous lives,
that even in Charles-street, such iniquities should not
go unpunished. Evidence was called to prove the
nuisance, and the defendant thought proper to plead
Guilty to the offence. Judgment was not passed on
him, but he was discharged on his own recognizance
to abate the nuisance, failing whereof the Court was
determined to visit the defendant's guilt with the
most severity oldie law.

ATTEMPTS OF ARTIFICERS TO LEAVE ENGLAND.—
At the Chester Assizes indictments were preferred
against Thomas Evans, William Robinson, John Wid-
dowson, James Shaw, Henry Hill, John Swindells, and
William Cocking, for attempting to leave the.country,
and carry on their work in a foreign land. Mr.
Mr. WILLIAMS was employed by the defendants as
Counsel, and Mr. Bnoww, of London, as their Soli-
citor ; and, at the suggestion of the ATTonNEt-GENE-
RAL, and by the advice of Mr. WILLIAMS, they were
induced to plead guilty to the charge, and give sure-
ties in 0.0 each themselves, and two other sureties,
in 00 each, not to leave England for three years."
At Lancaster Assizes a true bill.was found against
Mr. T. H. MIDWOOD, of London, merchant, a bank-
rupt, whir- dealt considerably with the manufacturers
and others at Manchester, for ncrt surrendering to his
commission; upon which a Bench warrant was im-
mediately issued for his apprehension. Hs is now
farming' in Van Diedran's Lind, and Government
have undertaken to fetch him back.

Unzos-Hst.r.—Saturday, linen Ridge', who had formerly
been a farmer, was broughtbefore R. J. Outman's, Eaq. charged
with having forged the Government stamp upon dressed skins..

A Correspondent in a Morning Piper, who signs himself
English Ronan Catholic, says, that the Oath and Catechism of
the Whiteboys, which appeared in the STAR of Monday last,
4, is and must be the work of some person who never was ini-
tiated into the simplest doctrines of the Rorpan Catholic Church,
but evidently is acquainted with the Protestant Catechism. Let
any Irish Roman Catholic, even one of the most ignorant, be
asked this question' What is the *lona commandtmesu t rind he
will reply, Thou shalt not steal. The 'event*? commandment of '
the Roman Catholics corresponds with the eighth of the Pro-
testant Catechism. From the purport of the extract contained
in the l'aper, it is evident, by the wording .of the tentenee
which contains the oath, that thesi*commandment, according
to the Roman Catholic Catechism, -16 alluded to, viz. ,Thai shalt
rSe commit adultery t for the oath runs thus-7' 'hat he wilt nut
break the swath commandnient with the mother, wife, orsister
of any one of Ids companksia' No Roman Catholic would
*have used the expression thus; .he Would not have called it tbe
seentii commandment." . • . • - •
