RIOT.

When the persons who-issembled in Spa-fields
began to disperse, a mob of boys culte.,:ted to-
gether, and put a loaf at' the top of a stick, and
proceeded t9wards the west end of the tov;;;.--
• .
They passed up the Strand, and stopped at a
baker's shop near Norfolk-street, Ina did not at-
tempt any thing there; on theft arrival at Mr.
Caws's, the butcher, in the Strand, they seized
some pieces of beef winch were exposed fur sale
they took some bread from the shop of Mr.
ALEXAN»KiI, the baker, sear Exeter 'Change ;
on reaching' Mr. Wasp's, the baker,' opposite
Beatifort-buildings, they slid not demand any
bread, but they forthwith attacked the windows,
in which they broke eight panes of glass ; atetd also
took some, bah from the shop of Mr; (litany/toe,
the fiahmonger, No. 41, Strand, throwing about
what they did tint take away : they then went
up St. Martin's-lame, where they attacked the
premises of Mr. NIoRaISON, a baker, in King-
street, St. Giles's ;
.they broke the windows of
Mr. linoottsuang, baker, at the corner, and took
some bread away with them ; the mob went from
thence to Cranboutne-street : they broke the
window of a baker in Cranboarne-street as they
wire taking down the shatters ; but when they
fund that cheap bread was wraten upon a paper,
they wetit away, witbout dpinv±eny further da-

rages which have heels committed.—At nine
o'clock all was quiet.

The following account from llow-street con-.
tains some farther particulars :
" Bow-STager.—From the excellent arrange-
ments and directions to the officers, conductors,
and patrote belonging to the above Office, one of
the ringleaders of the mob was secured, which dis-
graced the Metropolis last evening, by pargding ire
various neighbourhoods, with lighted torches, and
loaves of bread stuck on the tops of poles, breaking
the windows of a number of shops, particularly
bakers. About 7 o'clock, a mob, amounting et
least to between 200 and 300 persons, attacks'
the shop of Mr. Morrison, 1 baker, the corner of
Green-street and Castle-street, Leicester-square.-
A party of the patrote belonging to the Offices
amounting to five or six, were in readiness to se"
cure any of them as soon as an act of violence
commenced, which they boldly did. when the mob
began breaking open the shop. They seized
man who was carrying a long pole, with a half.'
quarter's loaf at the top, when a number of voices
called out a rescue and the man was released
from the custody, of the patrols: ; bon:erer,
succeeded in keeping the pole with the loaf at the'
top, and brought it to the ()dice, where Mr.Nsiice
end Mr. Biltrittt were in attendance till midoight,
to receive ail charges brought before themrespect*.

One Paris Paper has fnanil its,risy through
the weather. With the exception of the discus-
storm on the validity of elections in: .the Cham-
bers,J'he following is the only article worth no-
tice.which they contain :
" Preliminary conferences-have commenced at

of Austria, Russia, France, and Primid, fiviThe
execution of the measures already agreed

Trade, including a General System of Defence
against the Barbary Powers." .
The shameful use of the King's name In the
Election for the Pas de Calais must excite a, great
scusation even in France. '.sttch unconv;tntional
vorl; from Constitutional Mfitisters is marvellnus.

Candidata for thai'revitlency. The number of
votes was 196, majority 99. MM l'asautaa and
Da' SERRE were chosen, the first by 102 votes, the
becood by 112,
.BRI.LART had 93 votes ; next to
him Ravaz and BEVGNOT approached the nearest

Tire thought the word " Logialator," in the In-
vitation Placard to the Spa.:fields Meeting, was
inerely'a proof of the ignorance of the Wretches
who brought about this assemblage, and who
meant to *say " Legislature," it they could have
spelt the word. We thought also, that " John
14011, Clteirman," and " Thomas Preston Sec."
were either veritably fictitious names, or that the
former was in reality what be professed to be—
a Choirmatree-and the latter only his interior by
trotting between the poles behind We were mis-
te4en in both conjectures ! The Legislator *Mac!
to is evidently Tom Hunt, the Bristol Legislati;r,
and the Bath Lawgiver too, if we may judge by
the anecdote sent us from that City of his availing
himself of the honest plea of proscription to de-
feat the claim of A Creditor, Then, as for John
least (though we have not discovered
the Mr.. " Sec." Preston) truth compels us to ac-
knowledge that so far from being the obscure
individual we suspected, he is a person of
considerable public celebrity. In short, not to
keep our Readers in suspense, he is the identical

his " Green Coated Friend" turned many vrites
in favour of his humour, which were never Mitsui

Seeing, therefore, that Mr. Dyall wss himself
tin " Orator," dubbed and acknowledged, it
seems a bard case that this fellow Meer should
bate travelled a hundred utiles to supersede a
brother in the trade, as distinguished as hiniself,

" It smelt to Htarem"

In a preceding column we have noticed the
riotous excesses which grew nut of the Spa
fields Meeting last night. We rejoice that no
further mischief was done, and trust that the
vigilance and precautions of our Rulers, so credit-
ably manifested yesterday, will continue to be
conspicuous in their watch over the public in-
terests and providing against any more setious in-
jury being done to individual property.
We had hoped that the Law was competent to
grapple the incipient evil, and scud the Scoundrels
who ale thus endeas•ouxing to commit the peace
of the Metropolis to gaol : and we shall be greatly
disappointed if such measures cannot he adopted
should they attempt a secondcongregation. It ts
lamentable that punishment should only fall on
their miserable deluded Instruments.

We have littlr to add itt tht sternums Woe frotit
the Morning Papers. Motuet all the railing on
the South side of Leicester-agnate was ptilled
down by the mob, and the parapet on which it
was erected demolished. Lewd CASTLERRAGO
house, in Saint James's-square, also came in
for a few broken windows—(hy the way, a
utunber of glaziers' apprentices were noticed
among the rabble, which may account for the
hostility N penes),..—.and the shop windows
were generally shut in the course of their route.
Upot the, whole (except that there is something
horrible in every form of Nfoh) Owe was nothing
in the Evening tnntults of this parcel of boys and
blackguards which could disturb the respectable
portion of Society with serious apprehensions nt
danger.

not for their safety they are greatly iodeb:ed to
the patroles of the Plisse Comitains, which under
the direction of the Secretary of State, were every
where scowring the strecs, repressing disturb-
ance, and preserving order.
