DOW-9TR EET.—Four very respectable young men
were brought before the Kagistrato from St. Martin's
watch-house, and Robinson, the beadle of the parish,
charged them with sundry high crimes and misdemean-
ors. They had given a wunian in charge to the watch-
man in the Strand, for abusing them, as they said. The
watchman brought her to the watch-house, where they
followed, and gave themselves so many airs, " swagger-
ing round the place and kicking np sick a row," that
he thought it his duty to detain them.
The gentleme). in their defence, said they were re-
turning home from a tavern in the Strand, when they
saw a estimate in company with an iufautous woman,
and thiakiug she might rob him, they offered to accent-
pauy hint home if he was walking their road. He
seemed very much obliged to them for the offer, and in-
stantly joined them; wheu the woman followed them
with stick it:spotting abase, that they felt it necessary
to charge the watch with her custody. On their arrival
at the watch-house, they found the complainant, Mr.
Beadle, with a larg cocked hat, bound with gold lace,
on his head, and- a copper-headed cane in his hand,
warming his reins before a huge lire, and discussing the
polities of the day with sundry supernumerary watch-
wen, who were scattered on the beaches around. The
comment he perceived them enter, he took three long
strides across the apartment, and seating himself in the
great chair, with his leg cocked over one of the arms of
it, he haughtily demanded, " What have you got to say
against this ere woman F' They replied, that they had
no serious charge tor snake; she tad been eery abusive,
they said, but if she would promise not to trouble them
farther, they hail no objection to her being discharged.
The complainant then said.," But I sin the beadle of
the parish ! and I insist npon it that you must charge
her.' They repeated their objection to do so, and he thew
said they were a set of gamblers, and, for aught be
knew, they were something worse. They denied that
they were gamblers. and he instantly retorted that it
was a lie, and a d—d lie! at the same time loading them
with all sorts of opprobrious epithets. At length they
consented to charge the woman with bring disorderly;
and as they were leaving the place, our of them offered
the watchman half-a-crown for the trouble he had been
at, when the beadle exclaimed, " That's list bribery, by
0-41: and d—n my eyes if I'll stand is, There shall
be no bribery and corruption where I am." He then in-
stantly left the chair, and placed another man is it, be-
fore whom h. charged them with riotous and disorderly
conduct; and they were detained several hours, till one
of them produced a2O/. Bank note.
The Magistrate, Mr. FARIUNT, thought the beadle
bad been rather precipitate; and as the gentlemen did
not appear to have been to blame, discharged them,
ouch to the dissatisfaction of their prosecutor, who pro-
tested plainly against such lenity. and said that he know
the duty of a parish beadle as well as the Prince Begsat
