nown House, where things
are conducted with great civility and attention, and the
best possible treatment may generally be relied upon, though
they are rather sparing of refreshments, and apt to grumble
if a customer has a run of good luck. A Prussian Officer,
however, not long ago, kick'd up a devil of a row about
losing a very large sum of money; but it is scarcely
necessary to add it was all in vain, for there was no
redress.

The produce of this Bank, (which Paddy B---- calls the
Devil's Exchequer, whence you can draw neither principal nor
interest,) furnishes elegant houses and equipages, both in
town and country, and, it is possible, may one day or other
send a Member to Parliament, or a General to the field.

No. 10, King Street, St. James's, is conducted by old and
young D----s L----r; the father is too old in iniquity
to remember his progress from poverty to affluence.

No. 5, King-street, is kept by Mr. A----l; the former
residing at No. 3, Leicester-place, the latter No. 3,----
Street; and both live in prime style. The former, in his
youth, was an errand boy, and he became so willing in doing
little jobs, that his employers have paid him most
handsomely. The latter gentleman, who may be seen frequently
driving a dennet, and looking both sides of the road at
once, is a chip of the old block: but as it is not our
intention to visit the sins of the sou upon the father, we
shall not enter into a minute examination of him.

No. 6, in Bury-street, is only about a year's standing.
This table was set up by a broken adventurer, Capt. B----,
with Mr. ----, a jeweller, and a man whose agents keep a
house of ill fame, no way inferior in attribute to his
house in Bury-street. They commenced with narrow funds,
and now, thank the gulls, are independent.

The next door, No. 7, is held by M----g, a map-seller,
living at Charing Cross; Carl--s, formerly an under-
strapper at Ben--t's, living at King's Road, Chelsea; H----ll,
a tallow-chandler, living at No. 8, Bury-street; and
his brother, a brick-layer, residing somewhere off Grosvenor
Place. These fellows have carried on their depredations for
some time, but now have closed for awhile, being one of the
houses against whom a Jew, named Portugal John, and another
