UN lON. H A I.L.

Yesterday a young man, dressed in the habit of a (baker, named
.6ablo Ammon, was brought before the sitting Magisrrate, It I.
Cuassaas, Saq. charged with being drunk on the preceding night,
and while in that state, endeavouring to interrupt the devotions of
the congregation assembled at St. Saviour's Church, dustog the
evening service.
Gale, the beadle of St. Saviour's parish, stated, that on Sunday
evening, while standing at the entrance into the above Church, the
defendant, who was intoxicated, staggered up the step*, and was
going bolt into the Church, without even taking offish hat, when he
fortunately caught him by the skirts of the coat and pulled him backs
The Quaker seemed to be a great deal annoyed at this interruption,
snd cried out in a voice that reverberated through the aisles edit
Church, and which must have been heard by the congregatiunf
" Friend, thou haat no right to stop me from entering into this house'
of prayer; I came out with the intention of attending your mode
of worship, and in I must and ihall go, and thou shalt nut be an im-
pediment in my way." So saying,lie rushed by the beadle towards the
door leading into the body of the Church,and, in the attempt, fell pro•
strate on his face and hands along the stone pavement. Galesaid;ong
would have imagined that such a hard tumble would have effectually
cooled the Quaker's spirit for that evening at any rate, but no-...he
raised himself up, and having got upon his legs, made another effort
to go into the Church. The beadle, however, a second time pre:
vented him, arguing the impropriety and sin of a m ,n of his cloth
intruding himEell into a house of worship while in a state of drunk.,
enuess. " What,"said the Quaker, "Me drunk, why then, thou
art the drunkard thyself, and cannot see not of thine eyes, if thou
sayest lam the man." In fact, added Gale, I was under the ne-
cessity of giving him into the charge of a watchman, and he was
taken off to the watchhouse.

Mr. CHAMBERS-1 hope be was kept there until he bream: sober,
The beadle said, that he understood one of the defendant** owa
persuasion bailed him out in the course of the night.
The Magistrate then asked the defendant, who is a sedate, and
rather respectable looking young man, what profession or husinese
he followed? _ _

The defendant replied, that he was in the service of Messrs. Fry
and Chapman, of St. Mildred's-court.
Mr. CHAMBIULS having given him a lecture on the eitreme im-
propriety of his conduct, in attempting to enter any place of wor.
ship while in the state that he was described by the btadie, ordered
him to pay a fine of ss. to the King for bring drunk, and to give the
watchmahNvho conveyed him from the Church to the matchhouse,
half.a-crown for his trouble.

The defendant, who still appeared to be labouring und .r the
effects of the previous night's debauch, paid the price of his folly,
and was discharged by the Magistrate observing, that if lie perse-
vered in such habits, it would soon lessen him in the estimation of
his brethren.

As soon as the above case was disposed of, a dirty looking fellow,
having his clothes coveted with dry mud, was pl4ted at the bar, on
a charge pretty similar to that in which the Quaker was concerned.
Gale, the beadle, said, that very soon after the Quaker was
carried off to the watchhouse, the defendant, who it appears
is a coal•porter, and had been indulging himself at a public•house
close by, came roaring drunk up to the Church.doors, and wanted
to gain admittance. The beadle perceiving the fellow was drunk,
and that he had been rolling in the kennel, his clothes, hands, and
face being covered with wet and mud, desired bins to get along
home. The defendant stood arguing at the door, as to the right of
entrance, to the very great annoyance of many persons, who could
i not pass on without coming in contact with his filthy garments, a
touch of which• was enough to contaminate any decent suit of
clothes. The beadle finding there was no use in expostulating with
the defendant, sent him off, in charge, after the quaker to the
watchhouse. He was not, however, so fortunate as his fellow-
' prisoner, to obtain hail for his appearance, and was therefore kept
the whole night in confinement.
The Magistrate taking the last mentioned circumstance imn con-
sideration, discharged the defendant on paying the fine to the King
Tint Gnu. urn ass GaLtativ.—A young waterman, named
Wallis, and a servant girl named Harriet ily worth, were put to the
bar on the following charge:
Mr. Smith, the master of the female defendant stated, that on
Sunday night, while he and his family were at supper in the parlour,
the door being ajar, the street door was softly opened, and after-
wards they beard the footsteps of some persons glide along the paw
sage and up stairs. They did not immediately proceed to ascertain
the cause, but procured the assistance of a watchm .n, and on going
up stairs, the male defendant was found lying in the servant girl's
bed. Mr. Smith added, that at first he suspected the felltrw bad
entered the house for the purpose of committing a robbery, but the
female defendant had subsequently acknowledged that she had
admitted him to partake of her bed, and he accordingly gave them
both into custody.
The female seemed to be so much ashamed during the recital of
her amour, that she held down her head, and covered her face with
' her shawl.

The Magistrate observed, that as it was evident no felony was
intended, he should discharge the parties ; and added, that the com-
plainant was perfectly right in giving them a night's lodging in the
watchhouse. Mr. Smith intimated his intention of discharging the
girl from his service.

A dish of green peas was gathered last week at
Titchfield, Hants.
Saturday, at an early hour in the morning, four men
were returning from a party in the neighbourhood of
Edgehill, Liverpool, viz. two waiters and two musi.
cians. Of the latter, one carried a harp in a bag over
his shoulder; the other, a violoncello in a case under
his arm. Just as they had passed tl•e church-yard at
Edgehill, they were espied by " a charley," and, at
once suspected as a party of " body snatchers," alias
" resurrection men." " Ho! Ho!" thoughtWatchey to
himself, " I have ye now," and followed the party with
such an air of suspicion, as made them sensible that he
had •' mark'd them for his own." They halted; and
more in pity for the fatigues of the worthy guardian of
the night, than in fear of the watch-house, desired the
harper to " sound A," and at once convince their vigi-
lant follower that they had not been making free with
a •6 dead subject," but rather raising the spirits of the
living, and that of the party none were incapab!e of
speech—not even the subject in the sack. " Mus:c
bath charms to soothe the savage breast !" The watch-
Man, at once arrested by the note, stoni and gazed
surveying them more in envy that in anger, and
suffered them, to proceed without further explanation.
