THE DUKE DECAZES Al 6 SIR JAMES CRAW FORD,

Bow-ST:um—Yesterday afternoon Sir JAMES
CRAWFOR•D was brought up-in custody of SAMUEL
TAUNTON, .one of the principal officers, before
Sir It. BAKEa and GEORGE R. MINSH ULL, Esq..
the sitting Magistrates, charged with misdeniea•
nor and breach of the peace.—The following are
the facts gained fr•oai the statement of a great
number of witnesses

About eleven o'clock yesterday, Sir James went to the house
of his Excellency the French Ambassador, in Portland-place ;
and on the door being opened by the porter, he demanded if the
Due Decazes waS at home ; the porter anssvered in the nega-
tive, and asked Sir James to walk into ti'. anti-room, as it
would not be long before the return of his Excellency, which
Sir James did, intimating at the same time that he did not be-
lieve what the porter said. At twelve o'clock his Excellency
returned home, with his suite, from Chapel, and Sir James was
then informed by one of the Secretaries that it was not a day on
which his Excellency saw strangers, he being then particularly
engaged. Immediately on this, Sir James got up, and after
several tides pacing the room backwards and forwards, becan
to abuse the Duke, and told one of the Secretaries to inform-his
Excellency that he (Sir James) called him a damned rascal...._
The Secretary replied, that if Sir James did not know how to
behave himself as a gentleman it was not his business to teach
him, and was then going to leave the room ; when Sir James,
retreatinc, backwards into the hall, drew a small pistol from his
pocket and threatened to shoot the Secretary, who immediately
drew his ,-vord ; and at this instant one of the servants *hut the
door of the anti-room, which cut (e' communication with the
hall. Sir James then a.
went out at the street-door, and the
porter and two other of the servants followed, aml watched him
to No. 5, Park-place. One of them remained watching the
house, while the other two went back and informed hisSxcel-
lency, who immediately sen,t an account of the affair to the Ma-
gistrates at this Office, and Taunton
.was ordered to go and ap-
prehend Sir James. _ _ _

On Taunton's going to No. 5, Park-place, he found Sir
James in the drawing-room, and on different tables in the
room were two swords and two brace of pistols, which, on elta-
mination, proved to be primed, and loaded with ball cartridge.
Taunton informed Sir James of the purport of his visit, andhe
readily agreed to accompany him to the Office. When called
upon forms defence, he denied that any. part of what the wit-
news had stated was true. He was ordered to find bail for the
misdemeanor, and to keep the peace towards the Duke de
cans, himself in 20001. and two sureties in 10001. each, which
he said he would not do.

Another charge was preferred against him by Mr. Greilloz,
proprietor of fireillon's Hotel, Albemarle-street, where the
prisoner lodged, and .on his being given notice to -quit,
he created a great disturbance, and refused to pay them
their bill, to secure which.they detained his trunk. Yest:rday
he went there., and meeting Mrs. Greillon in- the hall, he
charged her with sending the papers contained in nis trunks to
the Duke Decazes, and behaved in so very outrageous a man-
ner as to cause Mrs. Greillon to fall into strong fits. One of the
servants remonstrated with-him on the impropriety of his con-
duct, and he directly pulled out a pistol from his coat pocket
and threatened to shoot-him. lie soon after left the house with
the pistol in his hand..--tie also denied any part of this state-
ment being true.„--He was to find. bail to keep the pence
towards Mrs. Greillon, himself in 5001. and two surety in
2ZOI. each,, winch he still refusing to do, was anunitted to the
House of Correction.

F %TAT, toT IN Snaorsnucc.---The tumults
among the colliers in this county have led to fatal
consequences. On account of the reduction of
iron and stagnation of trade; the wages of the
men were reduced 6d. per day. Discontent im-
mediately manifested itself ; add a large body
of men marched to Madeley-wood, Dawley,
stopped all the works, injured and destroyed the
machinery, and compelled the workmen to join
the-ranks of the turbulent. On Friday se'nnight
it became absolutely necessary to call out the two
troops of the Wellington yeomanry, under, the
command of Col. Cludde.' in aid of the civil power
land they proceeded to disperse a body of about
3,000 rioters, assembled near the Old Park Iron
Works,. three miles from Wellington. The riot
act having been read, and an hour elapsed, the
mob still 'remaining, some of the ringleaders
were taken into custody; but when the constables
and military were conducting their prisoners to-
wards the town, a general attack with stones and
cinders was made by the colliers upon them,
from the summits of two cinder-hills, on each side
orthe'road. The abrupt ascent of the hills ren-
dered a charge impracticable, so that the cavalry
were Obliged to use,their fire-arms : one man was
killed on the spot, many were wounded, some
dangerously, two of whom are since dead.—
The cavalry, however, succeeded in securinz
six of the eight prisoners, who were lodged in
Shrewsbury gaol. In dispersing the "mob seve-
ral of the cavalry were severely hurt by stones
and cinders. On the following day the military
force was increased. This circumstance, and the
fate of some of their companions, intimidated the
rioters from doing further mischief in the iron works
but parties have spred themselves over the ad-
jacent country, and are begging, while others,
more desperate, are committing depredations upon
property ; several persons have been stopped and
plundered in the neighbourhood of the works.—
Verdicts of " Justifiable Homicide" have been
returned on those killed or dead of their wounds.
Some of the colliers on Thursday last returned
to their Ivork.

gtead; with East Wickham,_ whose deceased was
