ASSAULT UPON TILE SuitaaY YEOMANRY.—A
carman to Sir J. Alderwuod and Co., lead merchants,
in the Borough, was tried for 11.v:tug assaulted a deacit-
mein of the Surrey Yeomanry Cavalry.
Corporal Turner, of the Yeunir tiny, stated, that on the
529th of July last the Surrey Yeomanry had been at
Wormwood Sernblis to keep the giound lot their
brethren, the City Light Horse, who were on that day
reviewed by the iung. A detachment, consisting of I
men, of whom the witness was one, were returning
home in the evening, and were riding on the near side
of the road, close to ute pavement in Parliament-street,
when the defendant, who was in a caravan, with a stout
horse, rode between them and the pavement, although
there was not room for him to pass, and drove in amongst
them, deranging their ranks and running the wheels of
the caravan against the legs of the horsemen, much to
the injury of their bouts and breeches. Tile dCfelldalll
CI ii() ed the confusion, and laughed in a very nubs:cons-
manner. 'Pie detachment, however, passed him,
but they had scarcely got oicr the bridge when witness
heard defend.iiit•s carat :income thundering hi their rear,
and on turning round saw that he was again amongst
them, and that all it as iu confusion. i'ittiess rode up
to him and endeavoured to stop his career by taking the
horse by the bridle; but a mob had collected on the
pat einem and cheered the delentlent, with cries of " Cut
away, d—n them ride over them." The defendant did
cut away, and having a powerful horse he forced that
on which witness was mounted on the pavement, and
placed him in • nt danger. Not the slightest pro-
vocation had been given to the defendant. Not one ol-
die cavalry put a hand to a sword or other weapon.—
Deiendent reused to make a public apology.
A number of witnesses corroborated this statement.

On the part of the defendant Mr. Dowling made a
speech, and produced witnesses to prove that the
Yeomanry had been the offending party. Vcr-ict--•
Guilty.
Mt. Tinton, for the prosecnt:on, stated, that all that
was wanted upon this OCCiISIUn WaS the public acknow-
ledgment of ttledefemiant that lie had tone wrong.
This the defendant was now ready to say, and sen-
tence was not therefore passed upon him.
E. IViliiams, J. Chick, W. Gurby, J. Miller, P. Cas-
tle, end J. Goodwin, who have long infested the neigh-
bourhood of St. George's-fields, were indicted for as-
saulting, with intent to rob, Mr. Rhino. 'lire prose-
cutor stated, that he was, to;ether with the prisoner, and
e,glit more, who belong to the same gang, in one of
those receptacles for thieves„ a cam-shop, in Fryer-
street, when IVilhams sttempted to steal his watch ; a
a disturbance immediately took place, and a wateninan,
named Lee, being ou the spot, took Williams Otto cus-
tody. lie was rescued by the gang., and afterwards the
prisoners were all apprehended at the Dover Castle, in
Dover-street. '!'hey were all Ibund guilty of the assault,
and the Court instantly sentenced them to seven years'
transportation. On hearing the sentence, one of the
prisoners' female friends screamed OM, and fainted,
which seemed to be the signal for a revolt among the
prisoners, Ibr they iminediately became most vociferous
in asserting their innocence, and attacked the gaoler,
who was about to take them out of the dock, swearing
they would not go, and attempted to get over the bar-
ricadoes. The Court was instantly a scene of uproar and
coafusion. A regular ti ht took place between the
atilers, constables, and prisoners, winch ended in se-
curing the whole, and placing them in prison After
silence was in some measure restored, (Arnow, an
officer, was called upon to state how use outrage com-
menced, and whether any attempt at rescue was made
by the persons behind the dock, which dud hot, however,
appeal to be the case. The Chairman then gave di-
lemons for the prisoners to be double ironed and placed
separate cells, and signified his intention of sending
then) out of the country immediately.
