I saw no other mad that was Idiot. I saw the soldiers whew
they were wonting from Cumberlasol-cate; some of them
bad their faces rituals% duwu with blood, and their clothes
covered with mud and dirt.
By Mr. Gall-1 was at the window before the gates were
Awed, amid till they had passed Lord Bagoes
I was only absent from the window a minute or two, while
I went to answer the door.bellt sod in that interim the tiring
look place.
Hy Mr. Blakie-1 have been examined on this subject
before by Mr. Henson. Ou that examiliation I stated nearly
what I have now deposed, add nothing more. 1 hold a place
under Government as one of the household trumpeters.
Mr. Gall—The witness has before said be was of uo pro-
fession.

The Coroner said Isis profession of a trumpeter amounted
merely to a blast of air.
Witness-1 am •Iso a door keeper at the Coburg theatre.
I ant quite sore the soldiers were assiocd in opening the
gales. Whether the police officers or undertaker's men did
open them or not, the soldiers were assisted. I did not see
the It till it got within thirty ur forty 'lards of the gate.
It came up to the gate very slow. After the h pursed
the gate the throwing was less violent that, before, and I
heard no firing up to that lime. I cau give no remos why
the firing took place. 1 heard au person read the Riot
Act.

By the Foreman.-1 nei•ber saw nor beard any shad Ared
before the hearse:scalar through the gate. I was lull wiuduw
•f Lord Baguet; diniug.room, cud if there had been any
Aring, I think I must have seen or Ivard it. The soldiers
were pelted with bricks, brick-hats, and stones. I saw two Of
three whole bricks, one of which struck a soldier. I did nut
see any person throw them; they came from the Park wall.
The 'Alter that was ',buck was near the Heim about three
K four yards from the wall. He appeared to me to be very
much hurt; he was near tumbling from his horse. I ob-
served as o►ficer near the gate, whose name I do no know ;
be appeared to me to be a young MOS. I did not take no-
tice of any usher officer. I did not see any pistol or carbine
in the officer's hands. I saw a ►rump.eter, whom Idu not
know, nor du I think I should know him again if 1 were to
set him. He appeared to me to be from about 20 to per-
haps 30 years- of age; but I did not take any particular no-
tice of him. By flourishing their swords, i meau &swishing
them aluiiit to intimidate the people. I did nut cuosider
the soldiers to be flourishing their swords in an improper
manner I saw a moldier and bi■ horse down, bow be came
so I do out know; I did not see him until after he was
down.

By Mr. Gall.-1 understand the technical phrase among
musicians, of knowing an instrument, as meaning that the
person kilo"' bow to play upon it. 1 hold a situation in
his Majesq's household as a trumpeter, hut 1 du nut knew,
the trunip‘t.
Tilts answer caused considerable merriment anion the
Jury and the bystanders.

Hy Mr Spicer.—Du y6u pay a peraou lo play the trumpet
fur you!—Yes.
By Mr. Adolphus —I never understood whether the place
I held is for life or during pleasure.
By a Jurur.—l do nut know whether any clones were
thrown from the corner of Cumberland-ediert 'onside St.
Giles's, but I saw the people take op come pawing atones
which hod beeu hid down but ay. e col fasineed. at the
comer of Cumberlando.t,ett„ cud shirk them one oil an.

did not are whether they broke the stouts or not, nor whe-
ther they were (Mon is ; I cattiest my that I saw auy stones
thrown from the opposite corner of Cumberland-.tree(; but
from the middle of the street there were sonic throw°, and
from all directioua. I saw several of the horses shuck, but
I did out notice auy of theta being wounded.
By the Foreman—The young officer went as ay from Cum-
berlaud-gate about one o'clock ; I did not wee she iruinlwtrr
hare say conversation with the of etr I have meotioued.
There was a cry of " Murder as the wounded luau I base
mratioard was carried by Lord Begot's window.
By a Juror-1 lied no rommuoieation side Lord Bacot.
or any of his domestics before I went to Mr. Henson ; I
did not proffer my service, bat was asked ; Mr. Wmthenan
came to the windows of the bouse and asked if any person
could give hint soy information, but the perilous there
said they were too much flightened to observe soy thing.
If I had seen Mr. Waithoran when he inquired, I should
have given him the same 'reformation as I gave Mr. Heuson.
The witness having signed his deposition, withdrew.
Michael Lambloo, Esq. was the met witness called end
sworn. He deposed as fullows:—l am Surgeon of Ike Ist
regiment of life guards. I was iu waitiug in the harm ks
on tke 14th August MI day, cud received the men as they
came in. Thislyeseve• came under my care for hurts and
bruises received that day. The greater 11131111ber were con-
tusions ou the head, neck, body, and limb., sorb as would
have been iiiflicted by stones and brickbat. ; all of them
were so struck and bruised that they required care at my
bands. There were live who bad broken and injured bones ;
one h ohms cheek bone, one shoulder blade broken (Hauled
Soweiby), one ankle bone broken, one shin bout, mid ems
arm bone injoi ed. These remade and bruises were certainly
recently irflicied. There were thiriy.six men brought is
from the riot at Cumberland gate; one of them Clie broken
collar bone) was brought iu in the evening, having hie ei
assailed in 'Westminster, and thrown dun u and trauiplcd on.
I ordered them all into the hospital.
By the Foreman—The whole thirty six were in the
hospital five or six days; st least they were all iu the sick
hat ; as many as could be received were in the hospital ;
those who reeeived fractures are still in the hospital. It is
not customary fur men to attend the parade while they
are under the doctor s hinds.

By a Juror —Sowerby was taken into the hospital the day
afar the riot, it being then discovered that the shoulder
blade was broken. I bad it from the soldiers that they re-
ceived the hurts at Crusherlaud-gate. I was waiting to re.
c. ivs this as they were brought its. I Imam that they weie
all out en Ilse service at Cunsberlaud•gate.
By the Foreman—There ate two lids; the Adjutant's
mid she Surgeon's, which it called the ilia hat; the
men üb• the Surgeon's hat are all excused from duty.
The whole tbirty•six were fur five sw six day+ earns. d from
duly. The uses with fractures are still excused (sum duly,
and have item since dune duty uu hors. back, but some of
thews have dime tri►i■l duty. The men nub conturioss
west on duty much sootier than I wished it ; the duty brig;
very heavy, as there were extra guards to monist. Those
who had fractures eertaiuly wt se nut pi ct.eilt at the inepec.
lion of the reginirot uu the 21st. I was there'uryaelf the
whole of that day. Ido not, as a medical man, thick those
mess could have been there with safety.
By the Foreman-1 cannot say, but I think the man who
fell hum his horse at CoXiberlasol-gate was one of the
this ty.six ; but I cannot tccoltcct win thee he was use of the
G.! fracture a or nut.

Au iudividual here came forward to make a complaint
...against Pysll, the beadle attending; the inquest, who had
pet vented him from coming into the room during three hours
of the 'oily pail of the day, for reasons which he could
wetly snit guess ; and now store he Intel hero ad suit ed, the
sonic person had grossly instilled him three Sr four. limes by
pathos hint back by the arms, as if to turn him oust of the
room. Oat Holub), it appeared that this individuals who
ass merely attending to-satisfy his corinvity, bad been ex-
ceeding troublesome to the beadle lay preventiog hies from
posits g in slid out, ■lid bad also incommoded most of the
persons sitar him ; he oat therefore named that if I.e did
nut conduct himself to as more orderly nunt.cr he would be
turned out.

The next wittier' called was Samuel Slosant, Erg. who,
being sworn, said, 1 am Veterinary timgron of the la rep-
meld of Lire Guards ; on the eveniug of the 14th August I
impelled the horses that returt.ed from duty ; a great many
weie butt, but nut disabled front duty. and of these I did
nut lake coguisouce; two ;moat's horses awl one officer's
were and are tool Guth fur duty; ►ome were cut with flints,
ROW after a dressing or two returned to duty ; our horse had
the artery moth r the jaw divided : he is now At for duty.
By the Foreasao.—The memorandum in which 1 have re.
(erred in giving my evidence was made by me to-day. 1 hare
other amenuemirla which were made at the time. 1 believe
Ibis memorandum to be a faithful extract from the former
ones; but it M made from wassmory. 1 did nut kuuw of my
