AN ORIGINAL.—An elderly man, an "artist," named
William Jones, was yesterday placed before Mr. Rush-
ton, for being drunk and disorderly in the streets. The
prisoner, appealing to the magistrates, said, "As you
are a great friend of the arts and sciences, I hope you
will forgive a poor but honest man. I was abroad for
some years, and received a wound which sometimes de-
prives me of memory." Mr. Rushton said, " Yes; your
memory is sometimes impaired by strong potations, to
which you are addicted." The prisoner then said, "If
you will let me go, I will leave the town in an hour, and
immediately join Father Matthew." The stipendiary
was. however, inexorable, and fined the " artist" five
shillings for inebriation, in default of which the alterna-
tive was durance vile for a limited number of days.
