London, June 25. On Monday near two hundred blacks, with
their ladies, had an entertainment at a publick house in
Westminster, to celebrate the triumph which their brother
Somerset had obtained over Mr. Stuart, his master. Lord
Mansfield's health was echoed round the room, and the
evening was concluded with a ball. The tickets for
admittance to this Black Assembly were five shillings each.
