TIM RIOT AT Gabisetwicie Fats.—lminiedistely upset
Mr. Beau taking his eau ma the bush, 16 artillerymen
and 6 marines were charged with auks and assisting in a
riot is Greenwich fair es Wednesday leasing.
Mr. Relent Lee said he wee the owner of Richardson's
thea're. Re was cie the heat of the stage, and saw some
•• bonsetting " going on mon the crowd, and a dispute
AIWA' between a cdvillsa sad as artilleryman, six or Coven
soldiers ran to the minuses of their comrade. The geed'•
man who was thin attacked endeavoured to get away to-
wards the platform of the theatre. The people groaned
and biased at the soldiers, who then tuned and attacked
the h. Several persons ran on to his stage for pro-
tection the crowd. Mr. Lee here identified eight or
ten of the prisoners whom he had observed to be most
active, end said that almost directly a number of stones
and oyster-skells were thrown upon the platform, one large
stone striking him on the breast. The soldiers tore sway
the steps, rushed on the platform, pulled down his
variegated lamps, broke to pieces painted partitions, urns,
Be., the &sweat of which damage could not be lees than
201. It was with very great difficulty he prevented them
from rushinc inside of his theatre.
Serjeaut Carpenter, 38 R, corroborated the evident,e of
the previous witnesses as to the distraction of Mr. Nelson
Lee's
_property, and stated that he saw Buttenley, Martin,
and Tripping take one pair of steps into the roadway,
sad break them to piece.. The same three prisoners he saw
go to an oyster stall ; and, taking the oysters sad fish, throw
them Om to the platform and among the people. He also saw
another of the prisoners, named Martin, throw a stone,
which hit a gentleman on the platform. Re saw Covey
jump on the stage, seise an iron combat sword, which he
Hashed about in every direction. Witmer saw a gentleman
knocked down and trod upon by a soldier that he could not
identify. The monism rushed out of their box, sad a marine,
not in custody, ton from one of them • trombone,
which Buttenley 'misted him in breaking to pieces. Watts

down a large chandelier which was attached to a
long rope. Mr. Lee went up to the military, and entreated
of them not to destroy his property, when an artilleryman
not in custody, struck Mr. Lee oaths shoulder. [The trom-
bone was here produced, broken into about half a-dos,n
pieces.) Oa the arrival of the police, the soldiers made off
as fast as they could. One of the prisoners struck witness.
and two others immediately tried to throw him down.
Sergeant Carpenter thee stated that be followed Wilkin-
son, Griffin, and Wade to Greenwich-market, in which
plea they went to • pump to wash themselves, and
he then got erbium and took them into custody.
On arriving at the station-house he told all the prisoners
they were charged with making a riot in Greenwich fair.
Martin said, " I only wish we had had a piece of artillery
there, sad we would soon have cleared the way."
Corroborative stridulate, which clearly proved that the
prisoners had caused a serious riot having been heard, au
application was made to the magistrate to adjudicate sum-
marily in the case.
Mr. Seeker said he did not wish to prejudice the prisoners
by any observation of his, but he considered that the facts
spoken to before him were sufficient to warrant Lim in send •
leg the case to be inquired into by another tribunal.
The prisoners were then remanded till to-morrow, when
they will be committed for trial.

THE CORN TRADR.-BIRNINOHAN, APRIL 4.-
Although the weather has been cold, with occasionally severe frost,
and minted= has made scarcely in progress, daring the greater
widths pest aasth it has been dmost uslettertuptedly dry, and
epos the idols so very favourable for Bdd operations that we Mitre
=sowing, with the exception of barley, la already nearly 00111.
The markets have not been largely supt-bed with wheat by
the farmers, and our imports of Garet= were comparatively light, and
the destine onEnglish at the early part of the month has been
recently rearmed, particularly for good qualities. The millers have
purchased with great caution, and oorce of them maintain that the
coosumedon of bread and flour has on fallen off, which they
attribute to the Increased ability of the working-clam to pur-
chase meat in part as • substitute; but we doubt whether
this has had any material effect, or even that the mode-
rate price at which both French Sour and foreign potatoes
have been selling at our principal ports has had any consider-
able influent. upon the consumption of home manufactured flour.
We are now disposed to attribute the present languor of demand to the
r::::disposition of millers and bakers to reduce their stocks to the
talpolst. as they were sanguine of an improvement in price at
the end of the year, which they are not at present. If there be any
truth In the supposition that the consumption of bread, in the mann-
(*during districts, has decreased, we thick it is mere than counter-
balaaced in the agricultural s ctions of the country : wbere, no:with-
standing all that has been said to the contrary, we ars persuaded that
more hands are emplayed than usual in the improved culture of the '
soil, with the laudable endeavour to meet foreign competition;
and the reduced price of wheat enables the people to use it
for fod, instead of vegetable*, in a greater prop* rtion than
formerly. Our future pricer, from the present time until harvest,
must be very much influenced by the disposition of the farmers
to bring forward or withhold their remaining stocks, and their
=chi= of coarse will greatly depend upon the appearance of the
growing trope, which is so far favourable. What and flour are now
worth as much in the northern poets of the United States as in Liver-
pool and we hear that some purchases of flour have been made In the
Wm, port on American account. The few tales made d fine wheat
in Oder= reported in List accounts from thence, wire ski= two or
three 'billings of the present value of floating cargoes arrived on our
own coast, height and insurance included. Only ten =eel, loaded
from thence with wheat for the United Kingdom in January and
February, notwithstanding freights have recently been as low as Sr.
ex. quarter. There very limited shipments have been owing partly
to the discouraging accounts from England, but chiefly to obkrue-
UODS caused by the ice. Our markets al= afford no margin for pro.
fit either from the Battle or France; yet it Great Britain continue to
be the only country requiring any supply, we shall receive some
quantity from the farmer for disposal at the beet obtainable price
the arrivals from thence will however be later than was at one time ex-
pected, the navigation after havingbeen so tar open as to enable some
=reels to get away, has by the last amounts again become closed.
Thera was a little more firmness in prices of wheat in the northern
Cta'arising in part from the opinion that the rye on the ground
been oedema, injured by the intensity uf the late frost. Our pre-
sent prices are. b.nglish red, 4s. 9d. to se. 3d. ; white, Sa to So. 6d.
per 641E0. at Birmingham. Polish Odense, 6.8 d. to 4*. lad. ; Dant-
NW, La. 4d. to ss. 7d. ; hard, 4m. 3rl. to 4s. ad., all per 60Ibe. at Glou-
cester. Except for the finest quality:of barley, it hie been very diffi-
cult to effect sales at almost any price. The little of other sorts dis-
eased of was at a reduction of Is. to 2s. per quarter, thorigh the quan-
tity la store at Gloucester continues comparatively light, and lo rather
decreasing. The nominal price of grinding parer la is 170. to 20s. per
melba. at Gloucester. The large clop of English oats, and the facili-
ties afforded by railways for their speedy and cheap transit from the
remote districts, have brought more than usual of this description
on our markets, and we have conformaly had an unusually
limited demand for Irish ; eo that with an import of only 5,569 qra.
for the past month, our prices have somewhat given way and the
stock has increased. The quantity on hand in Ireland is probably not'
leas than usual, and potatoes having kept so mach better than was
expected, we think rhipmests to some extent will yet take place
this country. Irish white is nominally worth 16*. to 175.; black,
Iss. to 16s. per 3121E0., at Gloucester. roans of all kinds have been
difficult to dispose of through the month, except old English, which
from their scarcity have realirid comparatively high prime. New
have the last week been also Ices plentiful and rather dearer, owing
to some speculative inquiry. Several cargoes of Egyptian have ar-
rived off the comet, and the owners would have submitted to some loss,
but we believe have not found purchasers. In France the growing
crops are reported to have suffered tram the hoed, and some
ore of opinion the same is the case with us, although so recently
I planted. English new sells at 91. 6d. to 10s. 6d. ; old, 12s. 61. to
Ise. rd. ; Egyptian, Re. 6d. to leo. at Birmingham, but buyers cannot i
be found for any quantity of the latter. We have had no fresh ar-
rivals of peas, tout the sale has been of the most retail description, at
o farther decline of Is. to 2a. per qr., but there are not many pressing
on the market. The demand for tares appears to be nearly at an end.
Foreign potatoes are in fair demand at Re. to 10s. per 2StAte. at Glue-
ocster.-From Sturge's " Monthly Circular."
