Mr. Brougham moved the judgment of the Court on the defendant. found guilty on a gross libd on her late Majesty ; but in comequence of tut: absence of die Lord Chief Justice, who sut at Nita Prius, Guildhall. and the necoi.ity tot the attendant* of Mr. Justice Holroyd at Chambers, judgment was postponed. , . - THIJK,DA Y. ROY. :2. [nor AT CIIELTENII AM. TII6 ZING a. THOMAS GREGORY ND EIGHT OTHERS.' The defendants upiteared to rreetve 'judgment. found guilty of a riot and 111.441111 upon two office's of EiChe, ul Chettealtatn, ou the fist of January lust. It appeared fr be mites of the Lord Chief Justice, that two officers of the Earise, named Gladwin and Dogood, made a seizure of several painted winnow blinds in the shop of Francis Rawli ~,, un upholsterer. The seizure was made on the ground that the articles were liable to a duty that had not been p.sid Other seizures of the same description were made at the shop of Thomas Boucher. This circuin srsoce occasioned considerable opposition, which increased its a riot. The officers were pelted with stones, and compelled to seek refuge in the house of Mr. Lucie, of Cheltonhatn, and that of a German In the same town. The snob followed them and commenced ato attack on the houses where the officers bud retreated, throwin.; strums, firing pistols, mud threatening to murder the officers if they could get theta out. The defen• darts, who took an active part in tile riot, were much in censed against informers, and they appeared to act nnder a belief ilra the articles seized were not liable to duty. The Jury found T. Gregory, E. Call, Timmins Boucher, D. Amu• cher. F. Miss lists, Woe. Rawlins, D. Alder, J. Alder, Wm. Peill'bey, and George Turk, guilty. E. Call did not appear on this Oteni;1111. The utiiiLvits of Gregosy, TllOll. Boucher, and Daniel Boucher, and the other defendants were read. They de clared t heir total ignorance of the liability of painted blind, to be seised. Several respectable persons gave the defendants the cha mart er of fair and holiest tradesmen, peaceable and loyal aultiects. Mr. Pullen addressed the Court ns counsel fur the tw brothers maned Alder. Those two individuals hod hithert borne the mo,t eact Heat chancier. They did not appear to have tale., an active part in tins disturbance. They were not aware of what they were doing, and he trawled their former good conduct would plead in mitigation of punish ment. _ . . _ Mr. Tw igs expressed a hope that the Court would make a lenieut distinction with respect to this riot. It was not one of an aggravated character. John Alder and Thomas Gregory, were perhaps persons who had pecutiat claims to the mercy of the Court. Their general character was good; he therefore entreated for them all the mitigation the Court could deal out. - - - -- • Mr. Ludlow appeared for George Turk and Wm. Peachy; (ho defendant., he said ,were nut implicated in the origin of I hi. riot. Mr. Campbell, as Counsel for the Rantins, said although Ihe olficeis seized the is indow blinds, the son, 11 illiam Rawlins offered mil resistance, but suffered the officers to take them away, The Lord Chief Justice said, Win. Rawlins was heard to say, il—n them—pull them out—murder thou.—With regard that his property had heed seised, under circua. , tances of hardship. These blinds had been exposed three months without the least suspicion that they were subject to duly. Mr. Cruse, in behalf of the Bouchers, rein estated his cli ents to be young s trailesmeu who had suffered much by the loss of the articles seized. . . . The Solicitor General in aggravation, staled that the ex cise officers on this occasion acted with the minuet propriety. They were doing no more than their duty. With respect to the situation in life of the defendants, their respectability might have led them to more correct conduct. Mr. Justice Bailey sentenced Thomas Gregory to be ha. prisoued one year in the house of correction, at North Leach; Thomas Boucher, Daniel Boucher, William Rawlins. and Francis Rawlins, to be imprisoned one year in the same house of correction, and to find sureties, themselves iii 2001. and two others in MI. each. Francis Rawlins um also Fentenced to pay a line of bOl. Daniel Alder and William l'enchey were sentenced to he imprisoned four months in the same house. Joint A!der was old, red to pay a fine of 251. and he imprisoned si ill, George Turk, in the same house, six ths, and at the expiration of that timeliud sureties. FKIDAY, NOT. 23.
