quired to begin their preparations for this evening
fowler than ufual, thty all ftruck and demanded a
great increaie of wages. Ma Manager having by
proper exertion obtained the promife of other men
to fupply moll of their places, difcharged a few of
the molt refradory, and the others went about their
work. This is a mode we would recommend on
molt occafions, where men are already fittliciently
paid, laced of having tecourie to the Magistrates.
A ferious difpute has lately occurred between the
Weilminfler Boys, and the Inhabitants r,fpating
the rights of playing at irat-Lli in D:an's•yatd. The
ball was pretty well lett up between them, deran like
all arguments of this defeription, would mrlt l.ably have been decided areaderaperGbuf,to., but for the
interference of the gtteen.fquare Niagillrates, wit()
perfuaded the inhabitants that it was mute in ,! : vier
for boys to play titan themfelves ; a reafon
pleafed the young Wellminflers, that they ra.ou-
roufly exclaimed--..Fiar fisflirin."
