Tllb LATE RIOTS. , . Yesterday the Lotto Islavoa received a letter from a - toWn'about 140 miles frOhi'Liindop, in-, , forming him that on Friday last a young sk t im , in r - , all respects answering the descriptiOn - of young Watson, and having the appearance of a person %vim had travelled a considerable distance on foot, railed into a public-house there, and obtained re freshment. He expressed a great anxiety to see the latest London papers, and when he had pe rused them, be expressed. nitwit dissatisfaction - at the result of the riots. litalept.at‘another house in the same town, where:.-he appeared equally ' anxious about an account of the riots, and asked the servant whether there were two ways out -of the house I In consequence of this information, Mr. Wont ter, the City Marshal, quitted London by Ole mail last night, for the place stheitee the infor !

Some progress hag' been made in tracing the history of the proceeding , s 'otthe father and son during' the last twelvemonth. Before .they.left their residence in Catherine-street, in the Strand, about a year ago, the father was so embarrassed in his circumstances that . he was obliged to press all his patients very closely for the payMenwif their bills, Having succeeded ,in procuring his money, .he removed to TOttinham-court-rood, situ thence to the neighbourhood , uf Ciaretuteit- . square, Somers-Town. He slid not, however,. inform his patients of the place of his residence ; :nor has the motives of his concealment been made kilown, There can be little doubt, however, that iv-arose from distress and paverty. Indeed, the Doctor and hii son decamped frost:llok. residence at Clarendon-square, a sew days previous to the meeting in Spa-fields, without paying the rent that was due from them.

Though the . houses of the grain -dealers only . were attacked, there is 'TWO to believe,' that .the 'flot . 'of Wednosday night was oecahitioil less by want, than the love of mischief and plunder. And ,this is proved by the faetithat little or no meal was taken and more especi.lly ,by the, destruc tion of Mr. Lindsay's property.. The Magistrates called a Meeting of the inha bitants at eleven o'clock yesterday.forenooo,which was numerously .and respectably atten4ett. The object of the meeting was, of course, - to provide .against the recurrence of such disgraceful scenes in Wort.. The town was divided into eleven dis tricts, and a great number of individuals were appointed to protect the, peaceable inhabitants ; . so.that tiler* is _now, .while this sysreni is tiered' upon, no danger of any disturbaoce. The meal. market .was re-opened, and quantities of meal WercAnrriedtherc. 'lnd sold. We are informed that the Makistrates have agreed to recommend. to the Council to , petition against the continuance of distillation from grain while the present juices continue, and to use every effort in their power to encourage the dealers to bring a regular supply of meal to the market.

Tl,e i'eoott states, that a seizure was made at our house of contraband goods to the amount of. 20001. The fact is, that the seizure in question, and the only: one that ever took place, was about e year and a half since, when the CustOm•house OffiCers, after searching very .minutely through the whole of our stock and : premises, took a few trifling articles, the greater part of which were afterwards ret u rned to us as ttritish manufactore. and those retained as contra brind amounted only to 7i. Os. 6d. and which had been broujit into the house by our servants, with out our kitoWledge ; the penalty on these amounts to 204 ; sonic other goods were alleged to have passed through our hands during the last four years, which we were fully prepared to have dis. prdired, but finding that we were liable to the penalty atteched•to the trifling articles found in but poiSessjun, we were advised to sutler a verdict to life't V e r for the Crown, on the penalty b e i ng Miliglii z itAlne half, viz. 1001. ' '‘Voliix libri of what passed between the Common Serjent and the Solicitio 7 General is, we believe, tolernit correct, the latter stating his belief, front the representations Made to hint, that we had no knowledge of Hn y such transactions. From the exaggerated statement that has ap prayed, we think it necessary distinctly to state, hat the ebovi is the wh'Ole extent of the affair.
