Soon after the last race was over, a riot, of a formidable
and alarming appearance at. the moment, and serious in its
consequences, took place, originating, as far as we could
learn, in an attempt of two of the constables of this parish
to execute a warrant for bastardy on the waiter at one of
the booths on the course. The fellow resisted the con-
stables, and was supported by a numerous party of the
crowd, who gathered round them, and being for the most
part armed with sticks and bludgeons, proceeded to heat
the constables, who were severely mauled by them. This
occurred a little below the distance-chair. Several of the
police constables and some of the pole-men (especial con-
' stables employed to keep the course) hastened to the spot,
and the rioters being reinforced by a considerable number
of their fellows, together with some ruffians of other classes,
of whom there are always a number lurking about when
any great assemblage of people takes place, attacked them
and beat them severely, knocking them down, cutting and
bruising some of them in a dreadful manner, and disarming
them of their poles and staves by way of furnishing an ad-
ditional supply of weapons to their own party. One of
the polemen, a special constable from Ormskirk, had his
head cut open, and was otherwise so severely injured as to
be conveyed in a state of insensibility to the Grand Stand.
Mr. Archer, the surgeon, being on the spot, attended him,
and found him in a state of imminent danger. He was
therefore put to bed, and persons were left in attendance
upon him for the night. A strong party of constables
were then mustered, who, supported by a number of reso-
lute young men, attacked the ruffians in a body, routed
them, and, pursuing them across the country in every direc-
tion, to a considerable distance from the course, succeeded
in taking 13 of them into custody ; five of whom were
lodged in the gaol at Kirkdale, and eight were brought to
Liverpool and securely deposited in Bridewell. Several of
the constables were severely bruised in the rencontre ;
among whom are several of the Liverpool police-officers.
On Saturday the prisoners were examined before the Ma-
gistrates, when 12 of them were ordered to find bail for
their appearance to take their trial at the sessions for the
county.

NEWMARKET JULY MEETING.

NEWMARKET, SUNDAY AFTERNOON.

This meeting will be confined to three days, being one
less than formerly, and does not excite so much interest as
usual. The only race of any magnitude or influence is the
July stakes, from which the favourites for the Derby and
Oaks are generally selected : this year it brings out nine
horses engaged in those stakes, including The Mummer,
who appears to be the best favourite for the Derby. lie is
a very powerful colt, and notwithstanding his being a
country horse of a nearly untried blood on the horse's side,
and opposed to a numerous lot of Newmarket nags, he
continues i►► high favour. Lord Exeter's Sultan colt, and
Lord Cleveland's Waltz colt, are also much talked of, and
have a good chance, if looking well has any thing to do
with it.

It is proper to remind subscribers to the Derby and
Oaks in 1831 and 1832, that the nominations must be
made either at Newmarket or London on or before Satur-
day next, when the subscription will close; the colts and
fillies to be named are now one year old. The produce of
mares engaged in the Riddlesworth and other produce
stakes for 1832, and the horses to which the marts engaged
in the Riddleworth Stakes, 1833, were sent this Spring,
must also be declared by Saturday next.
Very few arrivals have yet taken place, and the meeting
is expected to be flat. An amazing number of horses were
out this morning, and all well. About nine or ten ex-
pected to go for the July Stakes.
