'thin col diets replied that this y had a right to eland in the which they then occupied, and declared their resolution of rot moving fi om it. Mr. Sheriff Waithman then said to them, that he did not mean to insist, as he was justified in iluilig, upon their complying with hie desire to remove limn the footpath; that hits s. le anxiety was to preserve the public peace ; and to effect that object he would sick it of them as a favour to retire to their touters.

Notts itleamilii.g this conviliatui y address, %Melt, lied it been complied with in the hist in stance, would have indisputably prevented all the coinsure lion ethic!, afteranrels ensued, the soldiers persisted in Retainieg their station. The worthy Slittitf then asked them to give him the unite of their commanding officer, that he might communicate with him upon the subject. To that proposition the soldiers, at whose head was either a corporal ea- a set jeant, gave a most miqualined refusal. Air. WMIIIIOIIII made, however, another attempt to slice' his object.

Tbe (teas oh this answer was not calculuted to repress that natural ii .14- t ion under which they laboured. The worthy Sheriff saw this; and in eetlfiegliellee went up to the gate of the bar racks, and said to the men," As your commanding ufficer will not give you the orders which appear to Use to be Reece/silty to preserve the public peace, I, as Ithaca of the county, to vellum the King's peace in that comity is Intrusted, sake upon myself to act as your couunandlog deicer, and order you to retire this moment within the has racks.

A general torauemem eustr•rt between this Owes comrades (some of whom were Ls .17t64 with bledgeoui, but none at this time had swords) and the multitude. The we. cess was various t but during the time that it was carried on, reputed sullies of •tones were hurled from the upper is indows of lice barracks. At last the people succeeded in driving hack the soldiers a ho made the Their comrades in the bar. rat ks perceived that their friends wile defeated, and imme diately issued fr the barracks, some with swords, and others with carbines, to assist them, It was at that exact moment that we ourselves beeame eye-n ithesses of the scene, and we conceived, nod are still inethied to conceive, that it was at this miliaria that the affray really commenced. It was a fri 4 htlui spectacle. Soldiers, some dressed, some in their undress, were seen bursting out of the gates of their bars/irk', clumberiast over its wall., and rushing, with drawn In orals and inforisted looks, into the midst of the unarmed multitude. Others were throwing stat u s and brick-bats into lime streets f their p ivate rooms in much gthater quanti ties than acre thrown from 'L.! streets. We saw several people around is struck by them. some of the people now began to fly front the unequal contest which they wcrc waxing, but others stood up to the Guards, in spite of their superiority of offensive weapons, with the most undaunted for tittle t. Blood was flowing on both sides pretty freely, when Mr. Sheriff IVaitlinian, in whose absence this tumult had occurred, rode tip to the scene of action, and in the very throng of the contention. lie endeavoured to part the combatants, which were then fighting at that end of the barracks which is nearest to Hyde Park. Not succeeding immediately in his efforts. he turned back hitt horse, and was riding on the foot path towards the front gate of the barracks, out of which the men armed and unarmed kept continually issuing.

The worthy sheriff immediately desired him to return to his quarters and to induce his companions to return • the answer which the man made hint was to slip itside and knobs down an individual who was standing near lam. Still the slit:rifle:tempted to pet suatle him to retire, and whilst he was doing so, a young officer, iii plaits clothes, mooe up, oral if we saw rightly, attempted to shoulder the Sheriff off the footpath. The corporal, to whom we have alluded, took courage upon seeing this outrage, and imme • diately seized the Sheriff's horse by the bridle, saying to him, " Damn you, I'll soon show you the way oft' the footpath." NIL Waithinan, around whom there were not more than five or six of his officers, all of whom were struck and wounded by the mi. litaty, seeing himself, thus assaulted, hit the individual thus wilfully iiiipedingltim in the discharge of his ministeria duties. a heavy blow on the top ui the cap with a riding stick which he had in his hand. The blow stunned the man, but others of his comrades bteced the Sheriffand his horse into the middle of the street. Inunediately afterwards every person who witnessed the ti.uss.wtion, either from the streets or the neighbouring houses, must have expected to have seen Mr. Waithnian murdered. Two or three ruffians—fur they deserve not the name of soldiers—ran at him with their pointed swords; his officers turned them aside —another was seen at the sante moment, after having . first dell • berately taken is cartridge out of his pouch, and printed and loaded his cut bine, to place it against his shoulder anti to take deliberate aim at the worthy Alderman. Witiht the carbine was in that situation a sheriffs officer of the mune of Levi, ran up and knocked the ruffian down. The struggle continued a few ml 'lutes afterwards, and then suddenly closes!, the men retiring, as we understood, by the commend at their officers to the barracks. The Iberia* was then fully occupied in calming the spirits of the enraged multitude, many of whom, coot whilst the struggle was at the hottest, applied to hint to know whether they had a right to repel the brutal force which was brought against them, adding, that, if they had, and he would lead them on. they were readylto die by his side. Of coarse, the Sheriff's answer to these applications was an injunction to those who made them to keep themselves quiet and diipeno, 'That, however, was advice not ulways very palatable; for rho irritation which these events had exuded in the minds of rho people was not likely to cease Immediately. This circumstanee rendered it necessary for the Sheriff to remain riding up anti down till nearly eight o'clock, to prevent the settumulatton of crowds before the bar. lacks.
