it leads to every species of vice and eectrrnity. . Who
are their parents? Is there any body here belonging
to them?"
I Two men time forward, and said, that they were
the fathers of two of the boys. A very decent looking

other boy, said, " That, Sir, is my son. 1 ant the

been made against any of ibem before. I hope, Sir,
" as this is the first offence, that you will forgive him."
Mr. ETIMLITOM—What do yes think of a pod

that the boy might be feline • eke said, be was a
