davits that thel'e apPfehtices had litell'as welt as
the members of hisfamily ; and theft he wouldbe
able to lay before the Court. When a mad was
convkted of inhustianity) when ohe recolleettd the
judgment that muff be pronounced, itmadmilly
fuggefied the feelings of humanity.
Mr. Serjeant LENS übferved, that that circutn-
fiance had been attended to, and that theft. affida-
vits could not be made.
The. Court dilcovered an extraordinary degiee
of anxiety to get at all the circumstances of this
and particularly at every fit& that was in La-
tour of the Defendant. For that purpofe they look-
ed at a number of papers which he handed up.
Lord KEN YON laid, to be fore that has been
done which ought not to have been done iu this
Wines. The law has been as circumfpeet as pot&
ble. Where children are poor and have no parents
to take care of them, the law devolves the power
of placing them out in a &nation in Which they
may receive that initruetion at an early period-of
life, by which they may get their living honealy.
and has added all the caution it could that it
should be done properly. The Overfeers are to do
it in concurrence with two Magistrates; and to be
Pure Magikrates ought not to make this a matter
of courfe. It is not enough that their names
should be put to the indenture, but they ought to
exercife their judgment that proper care be taken
of thefe poor creatures who have no other body
to take care of them. There were feventeen ap-
prentices placed with this man, who flares himfelf
to be fo poor as not to be able to fubfift himfelf.
If the Magiltrates had made proper enquiries into
the fituation of this Defendant, it is impoffible
they could have plated them with fuch a man.—
T Nerfare ought to yip theft placer, and to fee they
are properly tarter care of, not once a year, but frequently.
They are in the ftuation of fame
with l'Oefi to theft
children, andlbould tale the fame care that parents would.
One does not mow what to do with this--it is a vinare
dince.—Let him be remanded, and brought up the
laft day but one of the Term to receive the Judg-
ment of the Court."

CRIMINAL INFORMATION.
Mr. Glass, on the part of a number of Meal-
men, moved for a Rule to thew caufe why a Cri-
minal Information fhould not be filed againft John
Batchelor, for publiffiing a libel on thefe perfons,
againft whom there was a fufficient degree of pre-
judice already. The libel was in the form of a
new Song for May-day; in which the names of a
number of Mealmen were introduced. Iraccufed
them of unjufi peculations in their bufinefs while
on earthned afterwards defcribed them as having
arrived in the kingdom of Lucifer, where the arch
fiend is reprefented as giving a hearty welcome to
his beloved children, at the fame time praifing
their diligence in having diftrefred and ftarved the
poor, by charging exorbitant prices for their grain.
They then all agree to make merry over a bowl
of the nectar of Pandemonium, and drink fuccefs
to Speculation.
Lord Ks N row.-1' Take a Rule to (hew elute."

Sir THOMAS GRESHAM, of munificent memory,
whole public endowments and local charities
alarmed his friends, as they thought he was in-
trenching too deeply on his property, and might
ultimately become a viaim to his own virtues,
Paid, with more truth than the world was await of,
that " Sriv more he gave, the more he gaixed." For,
in proportion as he extended his benevolence, his
purfe became more ponderous, and wealth flowed
in upon him, even falter than his copious benefac-
tions flowed out.—So Paid the great and good
Earl of Davows H las, who wrote his own epitaph,
" What I gave, I have; what I food, I v." Men
of fuch a turn take their good fortune upon null,
alai there are not many inftances to be adduced of
their being baulked in their fpeculations : for ex-
it:vie—there is Baonum, the Inventor and Pro-
prietor of the NERVOUS CORDIAL and BOTANICAL
SYRUP, not fatisfied with the good that he has
done fociety,'by the vendition of his valuable Nof-
trums, has for Tome time pall been an adventurer
upon the high road of Almonry ; witnefs his do-
nation of Sol. to the Foundling Hofpital, and alfo,
to the Margate lafirmar7 and Surrey Difp,enfary,
of which inftitutions he is eleaed a Governor foe
life; befides his bequefts to the Freemafon's, Cum)
berland School, and many other charities. And
yet, he does not wax one lot the poorer, hut, on the
contrary, the Door denvcs from his diftributive
outgoings, a riling_ augmentation every day to his
income, at leaft, if we may judge by the avidity
with which his medicines are daily fought after.—
And though his Guide to Old Age is to be much
admired for the trelfure of information it contains,
it is highly probable that not one of his Patients
ever experienced more benefit from his Pen or his
Panacea, than he himfelf epjoys from the exalted
luxury of doing Good!
