FRACAS AT MAIDSTONR..-.-On the evening the AiEzes at Maidflone terminated, feveral or the King's Counfel and Serjeants retired to dinner at the Star Inn, and indulged themfelves in•the plea Cures of thetable till towards mode o'clock at night. At this time Mr. Serjeant BEST quitted the com pany in order to call upon his relation Mr. KNAPP, to arrange their return Co town in the morning.— As he was walking down the ftreet leading from the Star to Mr. KNAPP'S lodgings, he was pallid by two men who appeared to regard him with par ticular cireumfpedion—they returned and paired him a fecond time, and kept their eyes flied on him till he reached Mr. KNAPP'S door: Mr. Serjeant Best, on returning to the Inns perceived the lame two men !landing oppofite Mr. Snares door.— He had not gone far, when they paffed him a third time, and one of them acconing him, asked, If he was Mr. Serjeant BEST? " - Upon his replying ' , in the af f irmative, the man who had accofted him, Paid, " then Sir, you are a d—d impertinent (cow- drel." M r. Best immediately did that which every Gentleman would !lave done; he knocked him down, and not knowing what fort of charac ters he might have to deal with, he endeavoured to reach his lodgings. They purfued him and came up with him jut as he had got to the door, when the fame man who had ufed fuch illiberal lan guage *faulted and !truck him feveral violent blows ; a fcuffie then enfued, and the Serjeant's Clerk having opened the door, the aggreflbr and his companion were forced into the houfe, when they turned out to be Mr. S•MUIll. FIRRAND WAD. DING TON and his Clerk. The latter addreffing the Serjeant Paid, Sir, you will recoiled I neither (poke to or &trek you. Itzimediately the Serjeant's Clerk obferved, that the fame perfon had in the courfe of the evening left a letter for him. The letter was brought and opened ; it appeared to contain a printed addrefs from Mr. WADDINGTON to the Hor Piaarras of KENT, fetting forth the Cervices he had endeavoured to render them ; the facriflces he bad made of his fortune; the in jury he had fuflained by the breach of their con. crafts with him, and the profecuticms he had un. dergone. On the back was written a note to Ser jeant &yr, intimating " that he was a Ccoundrel, for having (in the exercife of his profeffional duty) applied the term fraudulent to thole contrails, and inferring that every man, who either publicly or privately Rated them as fuch, was a fcoundrel ; , and adding, that he was to be found at a certain inn in the town till the nett morning, when he fhould fet off for Dover, where he was alto to be met with till a particular day."—Mr. BEST obferved that Mr. Waddington's conduit rendered it impof fible to meet hir. as a man of honour.
