On Saturday evening, during the trial of Harvey ti.
Andrews, the Court of Mni Prius, held in the Shire-
Halt of this town, exhibited a scene of tumultuotis
-confusion which has scarcely been surpassed during
any period of the 0. P. exhibitions at CeventeGiir-
den Theatre. It appeared that a number of the 1 Ith
Reginteneof Foot, consisting princpally of Irishineri,
had been celebrating the festival of Si. Patrick, et
the shrine of -Bacchus,„with a devotion worthy 'the
antiquity of the occasion, and were returning tb
their barracks; when they fell in with a party of the
Cambridgeshire militia, with whom a batty:-royal
was immediately commenced, which terminating in
the defeat of the letter; the. Irishmen elated with
-their victory, returned, armed with bludgeons, and
augmented in -numbers, determined lo rake posses-
sion of the Shire-Hall, and probably toecominetrine
rate their triumph by a general gaol-delivery. Their
Tairiotic designs, however, met with the -.most- de-
termined opposition on the_ part of the Officers be-
-longing to the Court, who not having drank 'an
equal portion, were not quite so clearly convinced of
the beneficial effeas of this measure.: an obstinate
contest ensteed at the outer gates, accompanied with
-such a combination of vocal sounds as to render all
attempts to proceed in either Codrt impracticable.
To complete the confusion and terror that prevailed,
an alarm of fire was given, which produced such
an instant evacuation of the Seats- and pressure to-
