London. Nov. 30. On Wednesday a masquerade was held at a
public-house in St. Giles's. The company consisted of
clerks, hair-dressers, shoemakers, taylors, and second-hand
gamblers; all choice spirits.  The ladies were chiefly from
the hundreds of Drury-lane. The characters exhibited were
shepherds and shepherdesses, dust-men, poets, chimney-
sweepers, &c.  They danced till twelve, and sat down to
supper at one. . .
