ORATOR HUNT AND MR. GEORGE M-
awr DOWLING

A few minutes before twelve o'clock this forenoon,
Mr. HUNT went intq Mr. CLemertTs's, Proprietor of,
the Observer Newspaper, near St. Clement's Church,
in the Strand, to look over the different Morning
Papers, to see which gave the best and fullest account
of the Meeting in Palace-yard. Whilst he was there,'
Mr. DOWLING opened the shop-door, and seeing Mr, I
HUNT, he asked some question, and was retiring ;
when Mr. HUNT stepped up to the door, and cried—
" Stop! a word with you." Mr. DOWLING stopped,
standing in tlra doorway, holding the door in his
hand.

" Mr. Ittiirr—Tott infamous rascal, how dare you publish in
all the Papers that you gave me a borne-whipping, which I had
not the spirit to regent ?

" Mr. Dowantc.—l glve you my honour as a gentleman I
never did.

" Mr. Runs—Damn your honour; a hired spy, a Govern.
ment spy—talk of honour; if you did not, some of your damn'd
colleagues did ; and it was copied from Paper to Paper all over
the country. You infamous scoundrel, if you have the courage
or spirit of a man, spew it now—come, I shall go into the street
with you," (offering to go out.)
Mr. DOWLING-.—" Upon my honour you wrong me ; but,
Aunt, you are well known ; and I should only get disgrace by
having any thing to do with you"--(Going, and pulling the
door after him.)
Mr. Ilutio—" I shall not touch him whilst in Mr. Clements's
shop; but he shall not go unpunished, for his falsehood; his
cowardice shan't save him from me--(Following Mr. Dowling
into the street, collaring him, and giving him two or three blows
with his clenched fist)—Take that, and as you have not spirit
to resent it in a manly way, take the law."

Here a great crowd began to assemble. Mr. Hunt
retired into the shop. Mr. Dowling put in his head
and said, " Mr. Hunt, I would be glad to know your
address." Mr. Hunt—" Every person knows my
address, No. 8, Norfolk-street." Mr. Dowling then
went away, and thus ended this affair for the present ;
but we understand Mr. Dowling proceeded to prefer
a charge against Mr. Hunt at Bow-street, which is to
come on for hearing to-morrow forenoon.
