The Maghlrate told him he thought it would be
better to let him remain where he was until Mon-
day, when hi. temper would be left ruffled. and his
mind more cool. To which he anfwered, a that the
devil a re& he wifhed to wear on his temper, and as
to coolnets, he was as cool as a costa:o,w ; and no
wonder fur him to be cool ; for the devil burn the
bit he had eat. fleet be had the bosom of feeing

The Magiftrate told him,.he was Rill confident it
would be betterine him to remain a few days. To
which he anfwered, he hoped his Honour did not
main to fend him back to that thabby, humpy place
Where he was; for fore, he did not think, that a
man, like him, inuld live upon three half pence worth
of bread in a day. All he wanted was to go home
to Nnrthend, where he lodged, to get clean linen

row, he had nes objeoion to Ray till Monday.
The Magidrste then anted him, if he would go on
beiard the Enterprize Tender t To which he an-
fwered, " Sure he was there already, for a whole
night, double ironed, handcuffed, and gagged, for
only damning the King and Covernmeut ; and how
could be help it, when a blackguard melt gang al.
moo cut him to pieces, its the name of the King and
Government ? He had no occalion to go on board
the Enterprize, when he only withed to go into the
fervice in a flip he knew, the Salvador del Muodo,
at Plymouth, where he was well known to the offi-
cers. He had jute come from Indio in a Company's
!hip."
The Magi (Irate told him, he was his friend, though,
perhaps, be did not know it; and only wifhed to
keep him out cf harm's way. He looked like ma
honed fellow i and if he would prOmife not to get
tit:fey, or break any windows, or Ibike any melon,
but go &rally out of town, he would liberate him.
To this he anfwered, " Very poffible Iris Wnrtkip
might be his friend, though, to be lure, he had a
d—d odd way of Nesting it. Perhaps his Worfhip
wee one of his nun trade ; be was a cabinet maker
boa, and fit was hie father before him, and both were
reared among the chips. If he had kept the Fifth
Commandment, he need not be there now, nor arty whet e
elle either : as to getting tipley, devil a fponnful
would lie think till he left town, if all the water in
London woe turnetOinto liquor; nor a window would
he break. His Honour was pleaded to fay he looked
like an hand! fellow. No wonder for him ; for it
was right for him to be an honell fellow, and
Coo ALMIGHTY wrote it upon his fathead. Buttes
to flriking any body, he had more regard for his
own health, for he was a 401:jointed rum, and if le
Bruck any man a blow with his fift, he would knock
