A Mailer Baker, at Ealing, was fnmmoned before
the LORD MAYOR for DOC fending in his returns of
Hour to the Cocket Office. It appeared the baker
had neglected a commons fent him by the Bakers'
Company, under the idea that he was not within the
jurifdiEtion of the City of Londoni as the A& of
Parliament only called upon bakers reading within
ten miles of the Metropolis to make their returns to
the Cocket Office. To afcertain whether be was
within the dillance, the Bakers' Company meafured
the ground, and the baker was proved to live 9 miles
and three quarters from town, he was confequently
within the jurifdt@►on of the City. The LORD MAYOR
ordered him to pay the expences incurred by the ad-
meafurement of the ground, &c. bqt did not fine
him, in cnnfideration of his expreffing contrition for

Friday a Greenwich Rage coachman was fummon-
ed before the Sitting Magiftrate, at Union Hall,
charged with an affatilt by a brother Whip, who Rat-
ed that the Defendant had knocked him down. The
Defendant diddot deny the charge, but faid he did
it in confequence of the Complainant having behav-
ed improperly to a gentleman who was in hrs coach.
The Magifirate °Merced, he did not know any clefs
of men more troublefome and impertinent than the
Greenwich Rage coachmen in general were, and for
that reafon he would never (pare them when any
complaint was made of their condufthefore him ;
but fence it appeared that fome of them had opened
their eyes to the impropriety of fitch condua, and
not only that, but had even undertaken to corm? and
reform the rill, he looked forward with a hope of fee-
ing them become a fet of the mofi Milted men in his
Mejefi y's dominions. He ordered the Defendant to
pay a Milling, and be dircharged.
Thu: fday, a mifcreant in Covent Garden Market
was beating an unfortunate female in the molt unfeel-
ing manner, when a youth of About fifteen years of
age happened to pafs, and reprobated the conduti of
the tnercilefs brute, who inßantly threatened to
chatlife him for his temerity. The boy, without ce-
remony, inaantly &ripped, commenced an attack on
the hurter, and, to the great fatiafaillion of the fpec-
tators, beat his antagonifl until he ran away, amida
the lhouts of the mo 6 who followed clofe at his heels,
warning him in future to beware of ill ufage towards
women.

At a review, of the 6th, or Ennifkillens, at Brigh-
ton, on Thurfday, as they were praaifing before the
arrival of the Prince, at the hitt charge, one of the
hotfes belonging to Captain Miller's troop fell, broke
its neck, and was killed on the fisot. The next herfe
of the rear rank followed him, with hit rider, who
received a fevere kick on the upper lip, but no other
injury. The rider was immedi4tely extricated from
the dead horfe, and ftripped : he appeared lifelefs ;
and, it was feared, he was really fo I but, on being
carried off the ground, and blooded, he was, in the
courfe of an hour, with the affiftance of two of his
brother foldiers, able to walk to the barrack, at the
foot of the hill.

A perfon died lag Tuefilay in the Poor-Houle at
Chelmsford, whore name and place of refidence are
at prefent unknown. John Jaggard, the driver of
the Bocking waggon, took the deceated up at Mile
End, with intent to carry him to Witham ; but he
became fe ill by the time be got to Chelmsford, that
it was found prudent not to take him any further.
The waggoner did not Rev long enough to give the
neceffary information concerning this ftranger, if he
was poffelled of it, but left him fitting ipeechlefs
upon the Reps near the King's Head. The deceafed
appeared about 4o years of age, five feet nine or ten
inches high, a Rrong honey man, and had on a great
coat, fomething like thofe worn by the London Vo-
lunteers ; the other parts of his drefs were neat, and
he had feveral thins and a brown lapelled coat tied
in a bundle. His looks fhewed evident figns of a
long illnefs ; he had money is his pocket, and a fmall
quantity of brandy and wine, but no papers, or any
thing which gave the leaft trace as to his name, or
to whom he belonged.
