MAIV7ERADZSi

The Mafotterade on Friday night, at the Ro-
tunda in Dublin, correfponded in every refpee
with the public etpeaation, formed from the talk
and liberality of the different Clubs of Gentlemen,
by whom it was patronized. As ufual, on,fuch
occafrons, there were many well and many
fupported characters, asd wit had its foils of dull-
ads and folly.

MISS MOZGAVS MASVIIILADE.—This pacific fete
took place on Monday night, at Ken4ngton Gore.
It was upon a limited fcale, and mull have proved
highly grateful to thole amateurs who have taße
enough to feel that a crowd is not company. The
number of the dee did not exceed two hundred,
and, every vigilance was nfed to prevent any im-
proper addition. For that putpofe the bolters of
the night undertook the talk of examining the
tickets at 'the. door. Though a difagreeable,' it
was not, however, a very tedious occupation, as
the company did not begin to affemble until ten
o'clock, and there was no adiniffion after twelve.
Among thole who had the good fortune to arrive
in time were, Fatima, Lady Ilunloke ; Pilgrims,
Sir Martin Polkes, Colonel Buller Mr. C. The'.
' lutfon Mr. Burnet, and Captain flunter, ; a Spa-
niard,Lord Courtency; a Witch, Sir John Shelly;
Scotch Ladies, Mrs. H. and Mils Dawkins ; an
/rip Prie), Colonel Armilrong ; a Turk, Colonel
Kelly ; a Punch, Mr. Val. Jones ; a Drvonfltire
Houfauoid, Mr. Lafcelles; a Marais, Mr. Locke ;
a Pierrm, the Hon. J. Dillon; Reics, Lord and
Lady Montford ; Fay* Capt. Colquit ; Prince
Hairy c f Wake, Lieutenant Colquit ; an Near, Mr.
Sketruigton; a Witch, Mr. Prior ; a ?'a nun of the
Guard:, Mr. Baillie; a Friar, Mr. I.awrell; a Nun,
Mrs. Lawrell; an old Beau, Mr. E. Dawfon ;
,Goinasj Mifs Brook and rs. Powell; a Jew,
Mr. Cuthbert; a Ifighlaad Chief, Mr. Roach ; a
Punch, Mr. Powell ; a Pstodoesv Mr. Smith ;
Panty Dreffa, Lord and Lady Holland, Lady
Honeywood and daughter, Mrs. Dawkins, the
Mils Garths, the Mils Courteneys, and Mr. E.
Anton. There was juft a fprinkling of dominos,
fufficient for variety; and a few good mafki par.
titularly attraded attention. Among thole, a
Sylvecr Daggerwood was the moll prominent ; but
that which conilituted the life and fpiTit of the
whole was a party of three masks, of fuperior ex-
cellence, as Lord Ogleby, Mr:. Heiidierg, and Can-
ton ; in the latter of whom, we recognized Mr.
Cox : but as the two former did not unmalk, they
could only be traced on their departure by their
equipage, which was a fplendid one often teen in
Grofvenor-fquare. Curiofity was on the rack the
whole night, to difcover thefe uninevau, to whom
the company were fo much indebted. The ball-
room was brilliantly lighted up with chandeliers
and variegated lamps, in feftoons, entwined with
laurel and oak leaves. Flowers and throbs were
alto taftefully arranged in the embellilliment of
the room. The dancing commenced early, and
continued until two o'clock,- when the company
fat dern to (upper. It was of excellent quality,
and difplayed profufion. Between three and four
the dance was rerouted in the ball room, aid con-
tinued, with little intermiflion, until feven,''when
brcakfaft was prepared, and the exhaufted fpirit
was revived with tea and coffee. The company
retired foon after, anti had entirely feparated be-
fore nine o'clock.

The Ranelagh Houfe Marquerade on Friday
night, in honour of his Majedy's Birth-day, was
advertifed to be on the fume plan with Booint's
Ba! Par;, and all thole attended who had been dif-
appointed in procuring accefs to that celebrated
Fete,or who were fo pleated with it that they %%And
to fee it repeated. The company was numerous
and elegant. Though there was not fuch a va.
riety of chara&ers as at tome of the private Mar-
-1 querades which have made fo ranch noire, this,
perhaps, yielded fully as much real atrufement,
All was perfesa freedom ; and thofe who were fit
only for talent fpellators, were not obliged to make li
themfelves ridicule,* confpicuous as Ctlakers,
Turks, and Orange-wenches. The propriety of
r the exclufion of dominos will admit of confider-
able doubt. The charaaers, if few, were well
fupported. One of the molt conitoicuons was a
gentleman who perfonated his Holinefs the Pope's
Legate a later. to the Chief Conful. Left he
thould not be known among a crowd of heretics,
he had a card fixed in his hat with the two words
CARDINAL CAPRARA. We confers it would be
fometimes very ufeful to fee " I am a Tartar
Chief," " This is an ancient Baron," " Behold
Don Diego," but every one not grofsly ignorant
mull have Peen that this holy father belonged to
the facred college. He had a new-faihioned opera
hat, to be fure, furmounting his fcarlct robes, and
his llockings were not exaaly of the purple'tinge
fpeciPicd in the Concordat. Inilead of bleffings,
he pronounced bn natl. We were much amufed
with two Spaniards, who had all the portly dig-
nity of their nation, but who, arange to relate,
bore on their heads a couple of Leghorn bonnets.
This may be a new fallgon introduced from Ma-
drid. They clearly !hewed themfelves to be Ca-
iborscs however, by their profound reverence for
the eardinal.

A gentleman in dir chandler of a Glegton deferves
particular notice. He certainly aced his part con
ware to ths admiration of the by-Randers. England,
ws fear, however, can fcarcely reckon him in the
number of btr beef-eaters, as when he wanted ano-
ther pullet, be repeatedly alkcd the waiters for a
fool. liair.irfArsbWatebren, &c.
were in great number. The ladies did not bear
great proportion to the gentlemen, but thole who
were prefent were motl fuperbly dread, and un-
commonly handfome. We had ilhkfis, Mau,
Villair, and Virgins of the Sun. A fair allserdeft
drew particular notice, and reminded us oT thole
times when the daughters of monarchs wielded
the crook.

The dancing continued in the temporary
building till one, when the rotunda was thrown
open, and the company fat down to an elegant
(upper. The wine, and all the other tefreihments,
were excellent, and no one went away (ikon.
tented.

COURT II EXCHEQUER, MALIN, JUNE a.

TRIALS At NISI 'NV/9, 'trout LORD AVONINORN.
WISE v. Piet.—This was an action for Cafe
itisprifonment.—The Defendant having caufed the
Plaintiff to be arrefted, and confined for eighteen
hours, on the soth of Novernber, iBoi, for princi-
pal, interell, and coils, amounting to near 351. on
a bill for ten guineas. The arrelt was effected by
the renewal of an execution, which lay dormant'
for near a year preceding, in the hands of the De-
fendant's attorney, Mr. Fignean, by whole tefti-
mony, as well as that of other wttneffes, it appear-
ed that the amount of the execution was paid on
the 4th of the fame month. A jultification was
attempted, too complicated for our limits to detail.
Lord ATONSIONI in his charge Paid, that if the
Jury believed that the De -ftst, either by ma-
lice or his own default, had. ,caufed the Plaintiff to
be inaprifoned, that it was their duty to give li-
beral damages. If, on the contrary, they dieted
that the Plaintiff courted imptifonment as had
been infinuated, in order to lay a foundation for
damages, it was impoffible for them to give any
damages too fmall.
The Jury returned a verdiel, tool damages, and
fixpence tolls. Thofe laid in the action amounted
to fool. Coon adjourned.

HICKS'SMALL, LONDONJUNE 4.
This day Mcnifieur de Membrk, an Emigrant
of dillindion, having been one of the Garde du
Corps of the late King, was indicted for an affiult
upon another Emigrant of rank (M. de St. Vic-
toire, late a Major in the Royal Mourquetaii es.)
Mr. CON ST, who led the cafe for the profeeu-
tion, Rated, that the object of the profecution was
not to obtain a vindictive judgment. He then
kited the faas of the cafe, which were in fill:glance
:—the plaintiff and defendant had ')een
*led to dine at a houfe in Cambridge,-iireet, St.
James's, frequented by French Erniftants. On the
9th of February M. de St. Vielotre came in to
dine, and fat himfelf down at the table where M.
de Membre was feated. The latter complained
without any reafon that M. de St. Vieioire
n:ocled him, and ufed very ungentleman-like
language. He then, in a wanton manner, took a
water-bottle, placed it upon the table, and infihed
that M. de St. Vieloire thould not put his knife be-
yond it, or dare to remove it. M. Vieioire moved
the bottle back to its former Fofition, when M.
de Membre feized him by the collar, and beat him
violently over the head with a pewter pot.

This 'Rate of fats was proved by the profecutor,
and General de Villary, an old Yield Marfhal in
the Royal French army.
Mr. KNowLss, for the defendant, admitted his
client had done wrong, asid.faid, he was ready to
offer any apology. The Jury having found him
guilty, the Court fined him only One Shilling, fay-
mg, that they impofed fo fmall a punilliment, hop-
ingthat the defendant would make fuch an apology
as their mutual friends fhould disftate.

JUNE 7.
An elderly man, named Hayward, who kept a
reboot in the neighbourhood of Holborn, was tried
for an affault, with intent to commit a rape on a
child about ten years of age, whom he had the
charge of infirating. The child herfelf came for-
ward and gave her evidence, which was corrobo.
rated by that of other witneffes. The Jury found
him Guilty ; and in confederation of his having
been eonekked once before of a timilar offence, the
' Court fentenced him to three years imprifonment.
Alex. Macqueen was tried for violently atrault-
ing a Dann failor, named Janfen, with an intent
to murder him. The profecutor, who fpoke Eng.
lifh very well, raid, that one night about twelve
o'clock, he being on there, went to the Dundee-
arms, in Wapping, in order to enquire fora bed.
The prifoner came in with him at the fametime,
and feemed defirous of procuring a bed for him ;
they drank Tome beer together ; and Janfen find-
ing he could not get a bed in that houfe, went '
away, and was immediately, followed by the pri.
foner, who told him he would take him to a place
where he fhould have a bed. As they went along
through a field, clofe by where a heap of bricks
flood, the prifoner attacked him, and laid he mutt
have what he had got about him, or he would kill
him. The profecutor had changed a 51. note at
the public houfe, in prefence of the prifoner ; the
notes he had received in change he took an op-
portunity of throwing away as loon as he was thus
attacked; the prifoner in the mean time cut him
over the eye, and in feveral parts of his head, with
a chiffel ; the other defended himfelf as well as he
could, and wrenched the chiffel out of his hand.
The prifoner then drew his knife, and fwore he
would cut the profecutor's tongue out, which he
endeavoured to do; he thrufl the knife between
his teeth, one of which he broke in endeavouring
to open hismouth ; he then gave him feveral dread.
ful gafhes with the knife, and left him on the
ground weltering in his Islood;and unable to move.
The field whew this was done belongs to the
London Docks Company.
The Jury found him Guilty of the charge, and
he was fentenced to be confined for three years,
that being the greatell punifhment the Court could
inflia. The prifsner, who is between tiny and
feventy years of age, Paid he had ferved his Ma-
jerky as a failor for thirty years, and begged a le-
nient puniihment. The CHAIRMAN told him, it
was well for him he had not been tried for his life.
