GUILDHALL—The Stewards ,f a benefit focietfr
held for a long feries of years at the B'ue Lail pub.
tic honk, Broadway, Blackftiari, were fummoned
before the blagillrate by Thomas Campion, a
member of the fociety, upon a complaint of his being
unjullly expelled she laid fociety, and his name ar.
biirarily (truck from :brit btu-Ai. The complainant
is an old man, eighty years of are, blind f one eye,
and bending, in the winter (.1 lice, under the weight
of thAe iitfirmities 44 which firth k heir to :"—he
Elated that he had been forty years a member of this
foeietys and had uniformly paid his folder iption and
complied with the rules ; that be is a whip maker by
trade, and that having been, fume weeks finee,
feized with the rheumatic gout, and totally unable
to earn a penny, he was obliged to apply to the In.
ciety for the ufual allowance of fourteen (killings
week ; that he received it for about fix week, ; and
at the end of that time, in anfwer to forne i•tquirks
from the fociety, he wrote them an account ftring
rthe truth, that the pain had left him, and he was in
hopes of recovering at no very dillant day ;—but
that be was (till extsemely feeble, jail able to walk
about, bit not to earn a Mill:rig by work ; but or
making application to the fociety for the next pay.
merit of tae allowance, he was refilled, and inf rmed
that his name was lb tick out of the books of the
' Society.

The Stewards answered, That by the Bth regula-
tion in the fociety's all perfons on rick al.
lowances were precluded from quitting their lick
rooms, doing any kind of work or bufinefs what-
foever, except receiving money, giving orders to a
feivant, or figniog a receipt," and that any pylon
doing any other bufinefs, while receiving the Fick
allowance, mutt incur the liability of expulfion. And
further, Mr. Crowe, one of the Itewarclq, Rated, that
lie and his colleague were deputed to visit Campion
at Ilammerfmithi and that; when he came to the
hook, upon not acing him in his (hop, lie went in to
purchafe a whip, for which thte Ltd who was there
asked him 4;. 6d. lie objeCted to this, and ailed to
fee the old man of the shop, who, he was fore, would
fell it to him cliciper. Upon thi., the boy called
the old man out from a room behind the lhop ;
Lowe led him into a haggling bat gain about the
whip, for which the old man received 4c. and on
Mr. Cr)we's report of this ciectinillance, the fociety
thought proper to expel Cimpion, and (lac his
name horn their books.

It further appeared, from the flatement of the
other fiewsrd, that under the 11th. wide of the
fociety's regulations, a lick member would be entit-
led to 14s. per week for nine months, if he fo long
continued ill ; and if his diforder thould prove in-
curable, then to 75. per week for life.
Sir CHARLES PRICE was of opiaion, that the So.
ciety in expelling the complainant, for the caufe Hated
by their Itewards, had acted prematurely and un-
jußly. They teemed to think themfelvet jultified,
by a trick of their own deviling, to trepan this poor
old man, inadvertently and unfufpeilingly, into a
confiruSive violation of their rulcs, for the purpofe
of getting tid of him by a pasty exputfion. But at
this cafe, their condo° bore every (lamp of cruelty
and injuflice to an aged member, who had been but
fix weeks, and not nine months, receiving their fok
allowance, and not ailing as a man who wilbed to
become a pet manent bur then upon their funds, even
for the very ptecatious remainder of his life. But,
iunder the vet y B.lt regulation, their condo& was not
warranted ; which regulation did not forbid a man
receiving money in his ()Ana,' &c. The man
only•came into his fitop to receive four fidlings for
a whip; and he would not, it appeared, have dos,e
even that, had hi h-tt been fednced to it by a trick.
The Magillratt's advice, therefore, was, that the
Society thould 'came Thomas Campion to his place
on their books.
The fpokefman was prrceeding with
great deg/Imre
to vindicate the condo& of the Wl4,..fitylui Society
but Le was loon reminded that he was not then iu
his club room, to carry his point by the powers of Lig
oratory, or the vote of a party majority.
The Magifirate gave him to underhand, that
either the complainant mull be rellored, or left to
proceed spina the Stewards by indictment.
