CROWN AND ANCHOR TAVERN.

Yeflerday the Freeholders of Middlefex, in the in.
tereft of Sir FRANCIS BURDSTT, had a dinner at the
Crown and Anchor Tavern, in the Strand. There
was an affemblage of at leaf} row miens, but whe-
ther they confifted of Freeholders or not it was im-
poflible to determines certainly fuch an immenfe
crowd was never witnefred at this or any other public
Tavern.
The dinner was tolerable, but at leaf} one half of
the company could only contemplate thofe who came
briar a (hare of it. After the cloth was removed,
Sir P. Burtonl. made an exceeding long fpeech,
chiefly levelled againd the late financial flatement
made by the Cesracsetort of the Exert %sunk. He
endeavoured to invalidate the calculations upot which
that flatement was .founded, and inferred that the
predi&ions of Mr. ACTUARY MORGAN and other fpe-
culatias with "reference to our finances, were founded
in fa,l, and would ultimately be proved. He confider-
ed the recently developed plan of finance as a com•
plete bubble, only calculated to amufe and delude
the public. ( Reiterated plaudit: )
Previous to the fpeech of Sir Pumas, the follow.
ing Thefts were given
Our Sovereign the People, with three times three.
The Downfall of an Parties and Fadlions.
The Uneogrupted and Undaunted Freeholders of Middlefex,
with three times three. _ _

Several humorous and political Tongs were Tung.
Upon the health of Mr. PAULL being drank, that
Gentleman returned thanks, and intimated that he
had no doubt of the refult of his Petition.

The company feparated about ten o'clock. 7,
