Puaitc Orrice Bow.sraim—,.On Friday George
Thelluifon Efq. M. P. Captain Lorenzo Toole, and
Captain George Manfell, appeared before Mr. BOND,
the fitting Magiflrate, in confequence of a charge
being made again(' them, before the conftablc of the
night, at Covent Garden watch-houfe, on Thurfday
night, by a beadle of the pari(h.
From the flatement of the beadle, it appeared that
the above 'Gentlemen had been dining at the Piazza
Coffee-houfe, and when they came out, they flopped
at Mr. Robins'i, the Antlioneer's door, for a parti-
cular purpofe, and he (the beadle) endeavoured to
prevent them= and they refilling, he charged the
watch with them. The watchman fprung his rattle,
and they all were taken to the watch-houfe, when the
beadles charge was taken. The Gentlemen fent for
Carpmeal the Officer, who proved them to be the per-
lons they reprefented themfelves to be, and he paged
his word for their appearance the next morning.
The Gentlemen's defence was, that loon after they
came out of the Piazza coffee bottle, they had ncea-
fion to flop, and went to the wall of the houfe of
No. to, when the beadle came up to them in the mat
violent mAnner. to pulls them away, and knocked off.
Mr. Thelloffon's hat with a thick (tick. Their (lop
ping again(' the houfe, No. to, and at Mr. Robins's,
was corroborated by Carpmeal. In confequence of
this explanation, Mr. BOND confideted the Beadle's
conduit as a bufy and unneceflary interference, and
a wanton exercile of his office. The worthy Magif.
trate obferved, that no man was more willing than
he was to protect officers in the execution of their of
flee, again(' any of the higheft charatiers in the
country; but On the other hand, if they abufed their
power, he thought them dangerous characters, and
as an example, ordered the beadle and watchman to
find bail for the affault, or he would commit them,
and pledged himfelf that they (hould be reprefented
to the Witty. The Gentlemen laid they certainly
would indtet them.

When the Scheme of the prefent Lottery was fub-
mined for the fanaion of the Lords of the Tre4fury,
they obierved that it was perfeetly fatidatory, and
very ingenious." This opinion has bccn lance fully
tatiged by the public upprobatiou.
