THE 16ING V. DOSWELL, GENT:

The Defendant,` whole cafe we (Wed fume time
ago, was brought up for judgment, having been
,convii.ted of endeavouring to provoke a gentleman
of Gelport to fight a duel, by Ipcaking very oppro•
brioufly of him, and calling him a coward and a
fconndrel. The party applied to Come Magi Orates
prefent, who rather encouraged than fuppreffed the
infult. One of there was a Clergyman.
Mr. Jonice GROSIR, in palling lenience, animad•
vertcd with much feveiity on the conclue of there
Gentlemen. HoW the Divine could reconcile hell
condui to his feelings was not (or him to explain,
nor fhould he anticipate the refult if a reprefenration
of fuch condull was made to the Great Seal. As for
the Defendant, his fluhborn demeanour, and want of
contrition, fully proved the malice of his inientiont ;
and therefore the Court at:judged him to pay a line
of Sol. to the King, and to be imprifoned three
months with the N 1.4111141 of that Court, and find fe-
c ity for his good behaviour for three years, himfelf
in 5001 and two fureties in tool. each.

TORTUNR TELLING.

Stiff. who had been oommitted under the Va-
grant Aft, was brought up to be difcharged, ip con.
tequenee of a deft t in the commitment, the words
‘' till difcharged by due ci tyre of law,". having been
omitted. The man, it appeared, was a fortune teller,
a moll miferable looking °bled, and excited the
lamiliter of every one prcfent. He looked more like
an ideot than a difeiple cf Zoroafler.

An alarming fire broke out in Greenock, on Mon.
day fe'nnight, about t a o'clock, forenoon, in a hook,
near the kali (bay, known by the name of War-
lane's Land. As the building was very old, sod molt-
)), of wood within, the progrefs of the flames was fo
rapid that notwithilanding every poffible exertion by
the engines. it loon became the prey of the dc vnoring
element. The adjoining houfes too were only laved
by the utmolt adivity from the fame fate. By this
melancholy accident, not fewer than fixteen poor fa.
, milks were burnt out, to the clothes npott their backs;
and Come of them with difficulty efeaped with their
1 lives. Cnnfiderable damage was alto Coffered by the
aeishbouring inhabitants in the hurry of removing
their furniture, and there may have been lofs fultained
in the way of pilfering after it was removed, but
1 much praife is due to every defcription of the inhabi-
t tants upon this me incholy occalion. The engines
1 were run down from Port Glafgnw with anxious
halle to their milldam ; but before their arrival the
word was over.—The houfe thus deflmyed is laid t
i have btett the &LI in Greenock which got a gated
! roof.

well as the removal of thole elifireffing debilities and deficiencies
