W hilst this notice :vu preparing, the Po
lice Magistrate called in the aid of the Miii.
tary, and superceded the authority of the
Shesiff. From that time nothing but milivury
coersion was employed ; they cleared the
street from Clevetand-Row, permitQug noth
ing but Stage-Coaches to pass and, stationed
strong partics at every avenue leading to Pic
cadilly within that space. The populace, be.
yond a little clamourywere notactively riotous.
‘The Sherifi, to shew the sufficiency of the
civil power to, mainwin tranquility, puraded
the street through the dense masses of per
sons coilected togethery, with balf a dozen
Constables 3 4he mob making way, crying
out “ Civil Power for ever! No Millitury
Coercion "
«We understand, that the Sheriffs mean
this day, at 12 o’clock, to attend in their offi
clak capacity, wnd wssume their publick right
of protecting the Peace of the Country, with
out the intervention of the military.
Desirous of preserving the Peace by the means of
the Civil Power, without the aid of the Mhiitary,
All persons are hereby ordered not to assemble
numbers, or in ang',rupe;t to intcrrurt the gunugc

“ MATTHEW WooOb, Esq.
“ And JUHN ATKINS, Esq.
Sher ffe of Middlesex.
Immediately on the receipt of Sit Fruncis
Burdett’s Letter addressed to the Sherifis,
they transmitted a Copy of it to the Secretary
of State, und the Speaker ; and Mr Shenfl
Wood waited personally on the Speaker, re
juesting his advice: The Speaker’s unswer
wus shorte‘* That he had dune his duty, and
he hod no doubt the Sheriff would do his."”
From the Sceretary of Stute the answer re
_ceived was nearly the same, with the addition
=t That it was to be presumed that the Shev
i weuld rather be inclined to support the aus
thority of the Speaker, than to ofifiose it.”
The Sheriffs then called out the Consta
bles and their own Officers—determined, if
possible, to prescrve the Peace without ‘the
aid of the miltary, and issued the follow-

We have just been favoured with a sight
of that instrument, viz the Speaker’s Warrant
which Sir Fruncis Burdett deemed unlawful
in Its origin and terms.
A slight inspection of this Warrant fiatur
