BRIGHTON, SEPTEMBER 6.

Lord and Lady BERL a Lay have left this place.
Lord THURLOW is conftantly riding about on
horfeback with his daughter.
The PRINCE of WALES and the AICHRISHOP Of
CANTERBURY were yelterday at the Chapel Royal,
to hear SETH Tuotesow preach a Charity Sermon.
The Duke of You is expeCted in a day or two.

The Venerable Duke of GRAFTON is a Noble-
man of the Old School; but there is an elegance
in his manner which excites fentiments of refped
and elleem.

The weather is much againft the intereft of the
Grove, which till now has been very fuccefsful.
... .

&pram BER B.—This place is likely to be kept
alive for Tome time to come by an encampment of
to,ooo men.—The 16th and 18th regiments of
honk, and a battalion of guards, arrived here yef-
terday, and there are feveral regiments hourly ex-
petted. The Duke of YORK is coming here for a
few days on a viat to the PRINCE. On Thurfday
and Friday there will be a Dutch fair at the Pro-
menade Grove. The PRINCE, this morning, re-
viewed the artillery ; one of the men fell off his
horfe, and was run over by a heavy piece of ar-
tillery ' • he was fo much hurt that his life is de-
fpairedof.

Lord Borrow has removed from Hackwood
Park to Cariibrooke Cale, the Government reli-
dence, in the Ifle of Wight.

Lord GRILY DI RUTHYM commenced the (hoot-
ing feafon lail week in the neighbourhood of his
beautiful lodge near Northampton, where a large
circle of fafhion are alfembled.

Lord Baawice is indufirioufly employed in en-
deavours to ic.roduce the breed of pheafants into
the neighbourhood of Wales. His Lordfhip lately
turned out too brace at Attingham, in Shropfhire.
A Gentleman in Invernefsfhire lately shot 5 a
brace of moor-fowl in a day. He did not fire at a
bird while fitting, nor did he fhoot more than one
bird at a time. Confiderable bets were depending.

The late Mr. MADDISOM, of Charing Crofs, has
left the whole of his fortune, about so,oool. to his
nephew Mr. Morrow, the celebrated Dramatic
Author.

Lail week the workmen began again to build on
the call front of the New College of Edinburgh.
The foundation was laid in 1789, upon a large
fcale, agreeable to an elegant plan by the late Mr.
ADAM, artichal. The building continued to ad-
vance for feveral years, till the fund was exhaufted.
The north-well corner was completely finithed, and
the north-ea ft corner roofed in. The beautiful call
front, little more than half up,'has been cxpofed
to the weather, till it has affumed the appearance
of an ancient ruin, and become literally the habi-
tation of owls.

A violent /rata: occurred on Saturday Lift at
the Bowling-Green, near Sommer's Town, on
which occafion a great crowd of perfons was col-
leded, when fome of them went to the relief of a
Lingle man, whom three others were feverely pum-
melling while he war down! No fooner, however,
did the fallen hero recover breath, than like a gi-
ant fuddenly roufed from kis Veep, he (prang upon
his three adverfaries, and, in a few moments, laid
them proftrate onthe ground, receiving the greatelt
applaufe from the afionifhed fpeelators.
A chfpute having arifen between two officers, at
Colchefter barracks, the fame was to have been
determined on Saturday lafl, on Leaden-heath:—
For this purpofe, with each a fecond from his own
regiment, they repaired to the appointed fpot at
five A.M. when they were met by the Magiftrates
of that Corporation, who politely took them under
their protedion, and lodged them for Come time in
the Moot Hall, from whence they were not liber-
ated till they had given fecurities to keep the
peace for three years, themfelves in pal. each,
and two fecurities for each in 5001. more.

A fpecies of tragi-comay was performed a few
days fince at the Fountain Inn, Margate, where a
large party of gentlemen had agreed to ride on the
enfiiing morning to Deal to view the flotilla; but
it feems that man may appoint, but Fortune dif-
appoints ; for a wag or a thief had contrived in
the night to run away with all their Loots : the
chagrin that prevailed, in confequence, on the fol-
lowing morning, was inexpreffible ; and it would
have been a rich exertion for Hogarth to have de-
piaed their forlorn vifages, as they croffed and in-
terfeaed each other, bawling for their new HclLan
boots.

Laft Friday, as Mr. Butt., of Lewes, was par-
tridge Shooting, near Ringmer, his attention was
filddenly attraeted by a large flock of birds, con-
lifting of four or five hundred, on the wing, high
in the air, at which he (hot, and brought one to
the ground. It proved to be a beautiful fpecimen
of the Knot, as accurately defcribed by EDWARDS,
except that the breaft of this bird was red (pro.
bably thedifcriminating charatler of the male),and
that of the one he has figured, white with (mall
dulky fpots. There is fomething Singular in the
appellation of this bird, inafmuch as it is reported
to have a, Royal origin. CANUTE, or Ks UTE, or
KNOT, the Dann King of England, is laid to
have been remarkably fond of its flefh ; from
which circuraftance, the bird is fuppofed to have
been named after that monarch, and its original
name feems to be totally loft. It is the ?rings
Canutsu of LINN Eus and G M LI N ; and the Canute
of Burros ; fo that the Royal appellation is gene-
rally recognifed.
Sir WILLIAM PARSONS was, a few days ago,
thrown from his houfe, near Weymouth, by a cart
driving violently againft him; but we are happy
to hear he has fuftained no material injury.
A perfon of genteel appearance was induced by
an unfortunate female to go with her into a houfe
of ill-fame, in Shoe-lane, at a late hour on Tue.
day evening. After they had been fome time in'
the houfe the people were- alarmed by the woman
calling oat—" He's dead! he's dead !" and im-
mediately running down Stairs : upon going into
the room they difcovered that he was not quite
dead. Two Surgeons were feat for, and they ad-
miniftered all the affillance in their power; but
without end, as the unfortunate man breathed
his Taft in a few minutes after their arrival. He
died, as is fuppofed, of an apoplettic fit. Ihe
body was conveyed to St. Andrew's Workhoufe in
order to be owned, which it was yefterday. It
appears that he was married and has a large fa-
mily, and refided in the neighbourhood. lis
watch and money were found fafe in bis pocktts.

ATTEMPT TO ASSASSINATE BONAPARTE.—The
Hamburgh Correftmukeiten of the 26th, contains the
following article tinder the head of Paris. The
fad never appeared in any Paris paper : In f Oe
0 all that the CHIEF CONSUL does for the C:iurch
and the Emigrants, new confpiracies are conitai t-
ly contrived againtt him. Only five days ago, of e
was on the point of breaking out. The Mameluck
whom he brought over with him from Egypt, and
for whom he has Ibewn the attention of a father,
had engaged in the villainous fcheme, the objeCt of
which was to murder his benefaelor. The Cults.
Cow sus. caufcd him to be conveyed by the gen-
ciarnerie from brigade to brigade to Tollor, re
older to be embarked for Egypt. The reit of the
Confpirators, 13 in number, have been arrellcd,
and imprifoned in the Temple. They are not this
time jacobiru, bus every one returned Emigrants and no-
torious Ro.ralifts. Neverthelefs, for certain reafons,
the greaten fecrecy refpefling the affair is ob.
ferved. The only cleft which this accident hi.
therto has produced is, that the CHIEF CONSUL
will foon quit his country feat at Mairuaifon, and
come again to refide in Paris."
FRENCH CONCORDAT.—We find the following
article in the Hamburgh Corr4ondritten. We do not
recolleft to have feen it ifi the Paris Journals. It
is under the head of Paris, 28th Augult :—" Lait
Onintidi the CHIEF CONSUL, in the audience %%Mai
he gave to the members of the Legiflative Body
j and Tribunate, converted long with them on the
fubjeet of the new Com:m.la. lie told them that
j he had not acted in this buiinels AS a private man,
or according to his individual opinion, which was
totally repugnant to the principles of giving the
Catholic religion any privilegcsabove otherCreedst:
but that as a member of the Government he was
obliged to confult the opinion and wattles of the
nation, fince he had found that both were in fa-
vour of the refloration of the Catholic worfhip ;
that, for his own part, he thought himfelf bound
to acqnicfce in the will of the majority. The
CHIEF CONSUL begins now to confider the litnation
of the Proteftants. Among other things the qucf-
tion is farted: Whether the Clergy in the coun-
tries which have been lately united with the Re-
public, Rill continue in regard to their religions
principles in any fort of connedion with their for-
mer Princes and Sovereigns ? The Miniacr of the
Interior, Citizen CHAPTAL, has fubmitted tbefe
queftions to be infwered by two men, who with
the pnreft patriotifm combine an unfeigned at-
tachment to the Protellant religion.' I'hey are—
Citizen MOURGERES, of the reformed perfuafion,
(a Calvinift), who was formerly Milliner of the
Interior, and a certain Lutheran Deputy of the
Department of the Upper Rhine. Both of them,
without any communication with each other, con-
curred in thcir aufwer. Both of them laid down
the principle that the fovercign temporal autho-
rity, according to the Proteflant fyliem, had like-
wife the chiet anthoi ity, and that the
Proteflant Clergy, who fiirmerly Rood under
to-
reign jurifdidien, had nothing to apprehend, AS
by their religious creed they are lubjetis to that
Government which has dominion over them."

DUBLIN.

SESSIONS MOUSE, GREEN-STREET, ,SEPT. 2.
TRIALS BEFORE THE RECORDER..—.-BryaN Magarry
coal-faftor, was itidifted for purchalltig an entire
cargo of coals at the rate of 205. per ton, and re-
difttofing of them in the fame market at the rate
..of 11. is. 9d. with an intent to enhance the market
price, and thereby opp.rets and injure tl:e inhabi-
tants of the city of Dublin.
The Captain teas the firfl witriefs examined who
haying manitefted Conic fyinptoms of hefitation,
was thereupon clotely and firmly interrogated' by
the RECOROER himfelf, and from his evidence it
ultimately appeared, not only that the retire cargo
was difpoled of to the pi ironer, but that he, in con-
fequence thereof, immediattly put men aboard and
began to retail to the public at an advanced rate
by the ton.
A Mr. Howard was alto examined on behalf of
the Crown, and he proved a dile/ and unequivocal
admitlion by ate prifonet both of rate of pnrchafe
° and refale. The ',tie& of the traverfer's Counfel
feemed to. be io mitigate the puni fitment, a con-
vielion appearing from the clearnefs of the telli-
mony to be inevitable. Atcdrdittgly the laft Wit-
nefc. on being interrogated, acknOwledged the ge-
neral good chara&er of the traverfer ; that he had
a family ; was Oonfidered to be a man of Konen
induftry ; and that at the time When he fold the
cargo in queftion at tIR fate of 11. 2c. 9d. per ton,
other coals of like quality Were fold upon the river
a; a higher rate.
The Jury found the traverfer guilty, and the
Court fentenced him to three month s mprifonment.
The Learned Recorder, in pronouncing fentence
took occafion, with that flrength and perfpicuity of I
reafoning, for Which he is fo eminently remarkable,
again to adveit tb the offence, and the eonfequen-
. ces of foreftalling, particularly with refptect to the
'article of coal ; he,congratulatecl the public on the
good effetts tnanifeftly produced by means of the
pmfecutiotss which have heretofore taken place.
and *artily ftiointnefided an unremitting perfe-
veranee is bringing culliriti of the like defiription

jowl &alba alit inditted for a robbery on the
!Chet hightlitt, btt fitittdaY the :3d of Auguft
lift; on the oeifon of Peter Brennan:
Mt. Brennan; the only *iiners on behalf or the
CtOsViii was eiginined by Ur. GiEENE—He raid
that on the dart Laid in the iinliftMent; ha had dined
at Bray; and on his return with two ladies and a
Eintletntr. in k earriake, he came by the *ay of
Sand*itiount to ledve %tin at hothe, and returning !
. between the tWo bridges, on the Low Ground,
near the Draii.bridge, about nine o'clock, he was
fury' rifed at a man preventing a piftol at the driver
at the coach ; the man that prefented the piftol
rises the prifone; at the bar : on the prifontit pre-
fenting the plhol the profecutor had a pocket-book
in his fide-pocket, which he took out and threw at
the bottom of the carriage. The prifoner came to
the carriage-door, opined it, and demanded the
wofecutor's money ; upori which Tome filver was
handed to him—tistre was more than twelve fhil-
hugs. The prifoner then demanded his watch ; the
ptofecutor inftantly leaped out of the carriage,
felted the pifeol which the prifoner held, wrefted
it out of his hand, turned the end of the piftol,
!truck the ptifcner, knocked him down, and, with
the afliftance of the driver, took him into cuftody,
put him into the coach, and carried him to Major
Sara _ _ _

Mr. *NALLY, Counfel for the prifoner, faid he
would ark the profecntor a few queftions, for a
purpofe which the Court would underfiand. The
prosecutor, on his erofs-examination raid, that the
perfon who robbed him did not attempt the (mall-
eft degree of cruelty : and taking it as a robbery,
it was committed with as much mildnefs as the
nature of filch a tranfaition could allow. Did
not examine the piftol—gave it to Major Girl, did
put the ramrod into it, and believes it was not
charged. When the prifoner was brought into the
coach he appeared to be drunk,but did not attempt
to do any thing whilft there. Did not fearch him
until he was brought to Major Sirr, and then no
:looney was found on him.
To a queftion from the Couar, the witnefs re-
plied, that he believed that the piftol was not load-
ed. He did put the ramrod into the piftol, and it
kppeared to be longer than the OW; that might
have happened from the piliol being fhorter than
the ramrod—however, Major Sirr told him the
neat morning it was not loaded.
To a queftion from the Jolt Y, the witnefs re-
plied, that the night was jull du(k..
The profecutor then addreffed the Court, and
begged leave, in cafe the prifoner (hould be con-
sided, to recommend him to the mildeß fentence
the Coen could infliet. He fait' lie knew the pi i-
roner had a wife and very young children, and in-
terceded for him not more spent that account than
for the humanity he had (hewn at the time of the
robbery.
The prifoner called witneftes, who all fpoke well
of his genet al charader.
The Jury, without retiring, found the prifoner
Guilty, but recommended him to mercy.
5;,,,,, 134-, a watch conilable, was indicted for
*lntuiting Andrew Clarke, and imprifonim;:: him
for the (pace of half an hour, without any legal
wrrrant or authority.
Mr. Clarke was examined by Mr. MNat.l.l.
Knew the tr:tverfer at the bar, and recollected to
I: tee fun him the 11l e f !ail Match, in witness's
111.1), who is a h iherdath, ; travel ft r was brought
there by a woman who v•ac rtrchaling arti, les ;
when traverfer came into the (hop, he Mice,' "what
ttptoar that was in the place, or what dilturbance,
and why should we rob the woman ?" the woman
had been in tl c fluor immediately before traverter
came in ; the prosecutor was up (lairs; a fixpencc
was brotiot up to him by one of his children, to
know if it was good ; the liepence was not good,
and the child hrinight it down fairs; immediately
after the pro(ccutor was called down to the glop,
where he found the woman and his fpnuie in high
words relative to the firpence; when he difcove red
the cattle of the diquite, hel..tt the woman out of
the Chop ; the woman had bough: fume rilibou,

r which the pqt on het' had before the otered pay-
ment; Ate took it off, and ,faid The would either
h.tve the liapence or the ribbon—the then went
away, and brought the traverfer back with her,
who had a cudgel in his hand, and who demanded
of the profecutor 44 why thould you rob the woman?"
—the profecutor related the circumßances to the
traverfer,, and faid the had not been robbed, but
that he had both fixpence and ribbon, and detained
them until (he thould bringbetter; the woman had
Come halfpence in her hand ; the profecutor wanted
her to leave them in part payment, which the Would
not do ; the traverfer faid the mull have oneor the
other, to which the profecutor replied the fhoold
not; traverfer then alked where was the ribbon?
' it was (hewn to him ; traverfer then faid 44 here,
you blackguard, take enough of them," and hand-
ed a quantity of ribbon to the woman; could oat
tell how much ribbon was handed—profecutor aat-
cd travel-ter if he was going to rob him ? traver-
fer then fei zed hold of the profecutor, and endea-
voured to drag him oat into the ftreet, but he was
refcued, and the door (hut ; traverfer remained
outride in a me:pacing pofture with his Rick; but
when he found he could not get in, he went off, and
thottl y after returned with abody of watchmen along i
with him--what followed, the profecutor's fpoufe
'could ben declare; did not fee what happened in the
limp at the return of the traverfer fora few minutes; I
looked out of the window into the ftreet, and law
an immenfe crowd, upon which he knew there mull'
b: ibmething the matter, and immediately ran
down stairs with one boot on, and the other in his
hand,for he had been dreffing, and when helooked
into the (hop he law it had been toffed about, met
every thing difturbed, and the place full of armed
men, and traverfer at the head of them; as loon as
profecutor appeared, traverfer faid, there is the'
blackguard, take hold of him—profecutor was in-
Randy feized by two of the men, who collared
him ; they would not allow bim to put on his fe-
cund boot ; one of his children had his hat, which
he handed to him ; he tequefted leave to put that
on him, but would not be allowed ; was dragged
without his hat, and with only one boot, through
the ftreet, and an immenfe crowd, and conveyed to
Vicar-I.e t watchhoufe, and wat there detained,
but could not tell how long—when traverfer firs
came to pmfecutor's booth, he did not tell what
he was. nor did profecinot know who he was, until
after he was liberated from the watch-houfe • fup-
poles he waeconnned about half an hour, and sot
out by two neighbours coming forward and bailing
him—no charge was made agaitift him—was not
brought before a Magiltrate—underftands he was
charged in the watch-houfe for-inflating traverfer
in the execution of his office. There were feveral
bailiffs after the traverfer, on the 3d day of the
month, which he fuppofes was in confequence of
this tranfaltion. Examinations were (worn agiinft
hint, but he was never tried.
Crofs-etamined by Mr. Gat Ina—Believes from
the fpeech of the woman that had been in the (hop,
that the was a country*othan—Did not hear that
the woman had laid outfide the door that the had
been robbed,and that the traverfer came in through
companion ; yet could not tell but that it might be
in confequence of her repretentation—Did put his
hand on the traverfer's breaft, and fay, "are you
going to rob when he took the ribbon up and
handed it to the woman—Does not doubt but put-
ting his hand to the traverfer's breaft was the fire
aft of violence—Did provide himfelf with a flick
when he law the traverfer in a threatening poflure
at the door—Did not give bail to the examinations
that were (worn againft him, becaufe the bills were
ignored ; and never gave bail after that he gave in
the watch-houle—Does hot believe the bailiffs were
after him in confequence of having forfeited his
recognizance. The morning after he was liberated
from the watch-houre, he went to Sir Wm. Wor-
thington, and told him the circumtlances : Sir
William was fo (truck with them, that he fat down
himfelf and wrote an examination and a mittimus,
and walked to the watch-boufe and called for the
traverfer, who appeared. Sir William anted him,
44 how long he was in the habit of dragging peace-
able citizens out of their hot•re&."—Does not know
what the anfwer was ; hut Sir William denied his
men to hold him in the watch-houfe.

The Court Aced, if the traverfer had any de-
fence ? to which Mr. Ger Ent replied, that he un-
derllood Sir Wm. Worthington could give mate-
rial evidence.

Sir Wm. Worthington was examined by Mr.
GIUNE.--" I do not recoiled the day of the month,
but it was nn a Sunday. Mr. Clarke was a Liberty
Ranger, and I knew him very well. He came to
me, and complained that he was treated in the
manner he has mentioned. My family were all
gone to church. I was unwell, yet I fat down and
drew a fhort examination and committal, and went
with him. There were two peace officers attend-
ing the church ; I brought them with me, and
went to dm watch•howfe, and demanded the tn.
wrier, whom I did not know, for I never faw him
to my knowledge. When he appeared I put him
into cuflody, led any attempt Mould he made to
take him. 1 Waltzed with him, Mr. Clarke, and
another gentleman, as far as lifhcr's-quay, to leave
him it, New-gate, where he was left. Clarke told
me that he had been enlarged from the watch-
hoafe on fume of his neighbours becoming account-
able fist his appearance. I told him he bad no oc-
eafion to appear, havingdifapproved of the conduit
of the traverli:r ; and I was determined to lay it be-
forethe Supetintendant Magi (trate ; and todo away
! thole fine•, which were altogether 151. I mutt here
mention, that Mr. Clarke his mentioned a little
more on the table than he mentioned to me ; for
11:e mentioned only the fixpence RIO ribbon, and
• has now gone a little farther, and has fpokc of
Ihalfpence. The reafon of this nbfervatitm is, that
if they had titan god halfpence, they would have
been fccurity for the ribbon. But I did not hear
of the halfpence from Aim on the day he brought
I forward the examinations. I was a litt're attached
to the corps, and to the gentlemen of the corps,
and an attack being made nn Mr. Clarke made me
a little too chive ; I am *lined to think rather
impraperly to ram the travetfet into Nescgateiltran
the head of his guard without any enquiry. If it
had all come out I would not have been petemp-
' wry in ramming him imo Newgate. Most:ever, as

to there finall fines, when t Went to the Superintend
ant Magiftrate, the orders for recovering them had '
been if ued without the knowledge either of the
Magiftrate or his Secretary. In my pretence Mr.
Clarke and the Superintendant Magi'lrate ali
agreed that the fines fhoeld be withdrawn, and
that the parties fhould give releates, and I imagin-
ed that it ended there. When I found it did not,
I was inclined to think that I might be brought
before the Coen of King's Beneh. Every repre-
lentation that could be made by me to Mr. Clarke
would not do It will cure me in future, and I
will flick Readily to the letter of the law, and never
let myfelf go one jot farther than I hate a right
[ to do."
The RECORDER, in his charge to the Jury, Rated
at confiderable length, and with peculiar preeifion,
the duties and authority of conftables. He repro-
, bated the outrage committed by the traverfer,
' which he Paid fell but little Bunt of felony. No
PpiCace officer had a right to drag a citizen out of
his (hop, where there were no examinations given,
or a warrant under examinations. If he did, he
affirmed an authority which the law did not give
him; which a Magiftrate, much lets a conflable,
had no right to alfume, except in cafes of a fudden
felony or breach of the peace on Hew, but not in
cafes where a man may be proceeded againft in a
legal way, and in the ordinary count or juftice.
The traverfer was found Guilty, and ordered to
be imprifoned one Month, and to find fewurity for
his future good behaviour.
Satin Drake was incl!aed for affauking Roger
Heney, on the loth of IA Augtlll.
The profecutor Roger Her-!y was examined by
Mr. Ridgeway—Remembers Monday evening, the
loth day of Auguft lan, when he was in the houfe
of tle traverfer, who keeps a public houfe in Ste-
pben-fireet ; it was aboat feven o'clock inthe even•
ing.ls himfelf a fhoemaker, and lives in Wood-
ftreet---Is alto a yeoman—He was not lung fitting
in the tap-room of the traverfer's houfe, when a
woman who was there, laid to him, " GOD bids
you, you are a tender good Orangeman."--The
traverfer was in the bottle, but does not know
that be was in the room. One of the perfons in
the room was going to knock him down for being
an Orangeman—Saw the traverfer immediately
after, when he went to pay for a pot of porter.—
When profecutor went to pay for the porter, he
sliced the traverfer, what fort of houfe did he keep?
that he believed it to be a united houfe, for that he
' was going to get his head broke, to be murdered,
and added to the traverfer, " and are you at the
head of them ?" and alfo told him that he would
go and bring Major Sire to examine the houfe for
the treatment he bad received. Some of the com-
pany ran away. The profecutor (leeched out his
hand to pay for the porter and get his change, and
the *reverter gave him a back-handed blow, and
Paid, " take that." Two watchmen came in, and
the traverfer laid, " take that thief." When the
profecutor was taken by the watch, the crowd all
down Ship-ftreet cried out, " we have got an
Orange thief in pound." The company rutted out
of the houfe, and Paid, " drag him away, the
bloody Orange thief." The traverfer was prefent
and heard the expreffions—Was confined better
than half an hour, and then the traverfer came
and charged him with rioting in his houfe ; which
the profecutor did not do. When the traverfer
appeared before Alderman Role, the nest day, he
teemed as if inclined to be lorry for what he had
done. When the profecutor related the Dory to
the Alderman, and who he was, the Alderman
Paid, he did not belie re that he was a rioter: but the
traverfer Paid, he would fwear the peace again( him.
On his crofs-examination by Mr. MiNai.Ev, he
Paid, when he went into the houfe be was fober ;
it was not cuftomary with him on that night to
charge perfons with being United-men ; a perfon
named Stafford went into the houfe with him, and
no other perfon at the time I the woman came in
after, and fat in the feat with Stafford, in which
feat the profecutor was ; he did not fcc Stafford
drink; the women were acquaintances of Stafford,
knew them in the ftreet ; would like to be called a
tender hearted Orange-man, if it was (poke in
honefty ; did not fell the women that they were
"a pair of Croppy Bitches"; had feen them before
--they lived in the fame ftreet with him, but were
not his acquaintance, becaufe he did not think
they were of good charaeter ; did not objeft to the
colour of their handkerchiefs; there was not a
general riot in the houfe before the traverfer came
into the room; witnefs only cried out to know if
there was any honelt man in the houfe, becaufe he
was an hone, maw and a Proteftant ; never heard
traverfer defire hits to leave the houfe, but delayed
' the charge until he was taken by the watchman;
and it was only on Sunday left that traverfer font
him the balance, told.; was afraid of his life both ,
before and after he law the traverfer ; was afraid'
when he was firft attacked in the room; traverfer
was milting punch ; had been in the houfe twice or
three times before ; never offered to make the
matter up for twenty guineas ; on the contrary,
traverfer wanted to do to, and thirty guineas were
offered to profecutor's attorney, which he refuted.
On behalf of the traverfer John Stafford was ex-
amined by Mr. MiNatLy ; was in company with
the profecutor from the firft to the lag of the butt-
nefs ; there were two women going by the window,
whonwthe profecutor defircd bin, to call into the
hotife, and bring them and give them a drink of
porter; wimcfs accordingly went out, and brought
in Betty Fitigerald, who is a tenant of the profs:-
tutor, and the bratight in two other women; Iktty

l'itnerald wore a liandkerchief, and the praccu-
tm. e.,d, ..only for- that Lit of loyalty that is in

your handkerchief, I. would cut it off;" the other

man;" profecutur defired the woman to let lani ,
alone, for that he wanted to have nothing to fay to
them, for they were " a couple of contaminated
Croppy Bitches;" there was a man in the room
that would have (truck the profccutor ; the women
Rood np and went away ; prokcutor alfo Rood tip,
and afked for tFe travcrfer, and then demanded of
him what fort people they were he had in the
