these, the most respectable, and piquinG itself upon being on the most "equitable plan," has been open to the shocking depravity of "the son;" who with our eyes have we seen, and with our ears have we heard, in libidinous intercourse with female servants, applying at his father's office;—we forbear saying more at present: four or five years may have worked mighty alterations; but wHat has happened may happen again, whatever the fatalist may say.
After all, these offices, properly conducted, are greatly convenient to servants as well as employers; therefore it is more especially the duty of moralists to take care they do not devolve into brothels, or worse. No doubt exists, that procuresses or bawds often hire female servants from register offices, for the purposes of their customers. Generally, the seduction goes on slowly; the victim of their delusion being engaged by some modest friend or middling tradesman; and,beingfcent to the bawdy-house with messages, is there entrapped. One of those many old bawds who live in splendour, keeps three bad houses and one modest one. She is lately married to a fellow, who at Deal sustained the nick name of "King of Prussia." Alie Street to wit.
