Anna Prise. the woel4be.monk, was brought up for final hear-
ing. Be stated in reply to the Itiagistrate's questions, that be was a
pilgrim, about 50 years old ; ghat he begged for shelter*, food only as
far as his present necessities required, and never asked for money ;
that be knew he should do well if he could get to France, where the
INing sad people were Catholics, and would hold much with him sod
his ways; that La Trappe was open to the faithful of all nations,
who hadstiffered from the violent hands of heretics. _
Alderman Femmes assured him the French would be as shy of
keeping a strong young fellow like him in a gate otbileness, as we
were here, and it was more likely that be would get into the gallies
than the cloisters. There was no part of the Testament that sanc-
tioned idle mendicants; and benevolence would be very 11 applied
towards him.
Prior said, to harbour the karbcurlees, and succour the distressed,
was one of the prime works of mersy, and that the Friars in Spain
lived by begging.
" Goo forbid," cried the Alderman, I' that they should ever live
by here. I hope benevolence will always be as extensively
eaere.ised as at present, but I also hope it may always be coolined to
propera miobisets, sot such as the bay young fellow before nee."

The Earl of Harborough entered the cake yesterday morning,
and addressed Mr. HAIL., the Sitting Mac Write pying that he
attended to complain of a report of certain proceedings alleged to
have taken place in this *lce on Thursday last. It purported to
be an account of one .haw Smith, who, it was insinuated, had been
a discarded mistress of a Noble Lord, and of a letter delivered by
her to the Magistrate, with au alleged signature of " Harborough."
His Lordship now totally disclaimed all knowledge of say such
letter, or person as Ana Smith, and in fact the letter in question
contains no such signature, but bears that of Ann Smith. The
name of Lady Harborough," which we understand this pow
wretch, who is evidently deranged in her Intellects, has bees in the
habit of assuming, was Indeed mentioned in the body of the letter.
His Lordship now produced the Newspaper, which be hassled to
his Worship for kis inspection.
The'Worthy Magistrate having perused the account, observed,
that the report was certainly an extremely incorrect one.
His Lordshiplben, after expressing his opinion that those pee-
n= who attended for the Pats& Press should be cautious to give
their faces correctly, *inked his Worship Ow his attestion, and
pitted the sake.
