A companion print to British Museum satire no. 6878: The country justice. Inside a watch-house, a burly watchman stands (left) facing an elderly constable who sits frowning in his arm-chair. He holds out a broken lantern and points to a thin, fashionably dressed, and apparently drunken man who stands beside him with closed eyes, holding a large stick in his left hand. Next to the constable is a clerk writing at a desk with a slanted top. The room is lit by a lantern slung from the roof. A map on the wall apparently represents the roads of the parish and the beats of the watchmen. A fire burns in a grate (right).

Two other men occupy the right side of the bar, and two dogs the center foreground, a poodle jumping up at the bar, and a pug urinating on a copy of "The Gazette extraordinary" which lies on the floor. Other newspapers are in the hands of the customers, the "Ledger" and the "Morning post". Bottles, glasses and bowls are arranged on shelves behind the girl
