Ft•-nrietta.etreet, Covent-garden, en Sunday night, by the blow-
ang of horns ,and vosifrraturg—i• Great news! Wonderful nen, !
Second Edilion--Xiug of France poisoned !" acc.—.These men,
it appeared, stationed themselves in lenrietta-street, during the
'Church ikrvice on Sunday night, with a horn a-piece, which
'they -sounded with all their might, and as soon as they had col-
leaed a large crowd together, they began to vocaferate, with,
etentoriau hangs, the exclamations mentioned above. Several of
the gaping spectators were silly enough to purchase some papers
which they had for sale, on the understanding that they con-
tair.ed great news,' namely, the murder of Lens XVIII. of
France by poison ! The papers contained tiq intelligence of that
ra.nre. A respeotabk inhabitant, as well as some constab!cs,
described the noise as the moat astounding they had esti. heard.
Tee men, in their defence, said, they were poor, and adopted
this means of earning " an honest shilling !"—Mr. Blame said,,
be could not allow so gross a profanation of the Lord's Day to
pa,s untsotised, and committed the men for wam of sureties.
