SIR,

CoNvxticap that you Will with pleasure vincli-
6te from unnierited oblogny o body of men so well
deserving'of their Country as the Volunteer,, I have
no hesitation in relying upon the early in,ertioo,
your widely circulating Paper„, of the following
StateMent, verified by the examinations that have
been taken, of an occurrence which has been very
'scandalously Misrepresented by a famous and sedt..
tious Writer:

A Preis Gang arriving in Chester a few, weeks
hick, laid hold of several of the Voltinteers, which
alarming such other of the Corps as considered
themselves liable to be taken, they absented them-
slves froth parade until their apprehensions were
allayed by. the release of those who were in cias
tody„.and assurance from Captain BIRCHE Le, who
regulates the Impress Service here, that .in future
any Volunteer who happened to be detained by the
Gang, should be released, on an Officer of the Regi-
ment ,in uniform, pettonally applying for and Men.
tifying him. The Vybanteers thus co;videred them.
CeIVCS secured from the Impress. On the 27th De-
ceniber, jackron was detained, belonging to the
'Artillefy Company, and on the 28th, which was a
parade day, Lieutenant LLOYD, of that Company,
applied for his release, bu: vests informed t!tat Cap-
tain BIRCHELL had received fresh instruaions, and
that the man -could not be given up. Upon this,
some of the -meal murmured, and yen remonstra-ed ;
but on being assured by their Officers that jadson
would not be sent off until every proper of hrt was
made to have him given up, the Men went off
parade apparently satisfied. Captain BiRCHELL
hearing of this remonstrance on the part of the Ar.
tillery Company, and possibly threats from other
quarters, became apprehensive of a -rescue, and 'ap-
plied/to the Magistrates for permission to confine
Jackson in the City Gaol, wi ich was granted, and
he was about three o'clock (I think imprudently)
placed in theNorthgate. About eight o'clock the
same evening,'a mob began to assemble, principally-
of women and children, at the rendezvous-bowie, stliCl
meeting with no opposition, broke the' windows,
a rid took from thence a poleotheColour having I
taken off it by the Gang some hours hefore, with
whiCh they proceeded to the.Nortligate, tH-t-..a;en
ing to break open the door if Jackson v:.o;
at liberty. The J.ilor judged it prudent cn
lease him, peace was immediately restored, and
city has remained pettedly tranquil ft:on) that time,
althougbjackson has been again impressed, and is
sent off. So short a time indeed did this riot con_
tinue, that though it appeats to have been previ-
ously apprehkdzd, there Wass-not time to assemble
eiehcr tUe C(itkstabies, or a Troop of the 6th Did.
goon Guards then quartered in the City, before it
was foutid,there would be no occasion for them.
before observed, that this occurred on a parade
day, during the whole of 'which days the principal
part of the Regiment always continue in uniform;
it could not therefore, be matter of surprize, that
out of 'zoo men, of which the Regiment cmnsists,
So to too of them appeared in uniform in-th:e-street.
But they were principally innocent speaators ; and
I do here charge that man with notorious falsehood,
who will assert that any considerahlenumber of the
Volunteers were aftively engaged in that affair.
The_Offioers of the Regiment, in conjunaion. with
the Magistrates, have offered a Reward of soh to
the Coriviaor-of an offender. Suspicion has arisen
only against three of the Volunteers; and I have
the best reasons for believing, that one only of
these,„ -an- artilleryman who -has absconded, will
prove to have been really implicated in the business.
What, then,, can we think of that man who, upon
such grounds, grossly' libels a whole Regiment,
composed of 1200 as loyal metias any in the Domi-
nions of our beloved Sovereign, whose Colours.:you
have been falsely told 400 of them assisted in tear.
ing and trampling in the kennel----Colours which
would be so sacredly proteaed in 'the hands of this
Regiment, that, there is hardly a circumstance ex-
isting-, which would. induce them to violate even the
rope that suspends" them, but the want of a '8056.
tote, upon an emergency, to do -ample justice to
their:Calumniator.
