NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

CANTERBURY SESSIONS.
'Monday, John Pnrre*, Wm. Andrews, and Wes. Irilddh. were
indicted for a riot, upon the 18th ult. at the house of --Wraith,
tie Duke of Wellington public-house, Broad-street, in this city.
Since the battle of Waterloo, it has been the custom of the house
ind neighbourhood *to hold a fair upon the anniversary of the
bank. The fair, for some years since, has been an annual scene
of nut and confusion ; the soldiers in garrison usually have liberty
upon that day, and upon this occasion a party of the Royal Dra-
t:COS occupied the house, and after having swallowed large
draughts of Sir John Barleycorn, gave three buzzes, and com-
menced a general fight : they finally drove the people out of the
bane, but the latter, being reinforced, and baying armed them-
aka with bludgeons, returned to the attack, and put the gol-
den to flight, in doing which, the landlord's house, windows,
and furniture suffered very considerably. Two or three of the
soldiers were seriously injured, and at first their lives were de-
s?aired of. None of them, however, were identified at the eza-
ruination, and, consequently, were not brought to triaL After
the use had been fully heard, the Court suggested a compromise,
vlikh was acceded to by the prosecutor the more readily, as the
principal delinquents had effected their escape. The defendants
made an apology to the landlord, and agreed to pay bins the sum
of 10s. each towards the damage he had sustained in the riot.—
Thedefetutants were then severally acquitted ; and the Recorder
gale notice, that the fair which has been usually held upon the
(Sib of June, in celebration of the battle of Waterloo, will be
rrohibited by the Magistrates in future.

Yesterday, during a heavy shower of rain, a Lady and Gen-
tleman were passing Charing-Cross in a chaise, when the wheel
of a stage caught that of the chaise, by which the latter was
overturned : the Lady received some severe lacerations, and the
chaise, by the plunging of the horse, had one side beat to pieces.
A SHARP A/CD A FLAT !—A few days ago a Gentleman applied
to Sir RICHARD Blame, at Bow-Street, for a warrant to appre-
tend a Mr. $. who, he said, had contrived, with no small degree
of ingenuity, to trick him out of a horse be happened to have for
sale. He advertised the horse for sale, and was applied to by
this Mr. S. who said it was just the sort of thing he wanted, and
:!ereed to give £25 for it, he (the complainant) agreeing to take
:he animal to a livery-stable at Chelsea. He rode the horse to
:he livery-stables mentioned, where be found Mr. S. and after
the compliments usual between well bred persons, the latter drew
forth a purse, seemingly well lined with sovereigns, for the
purpose, as complainant supposed, of paying him the price of the
!horse in good hard cash; but Mr. S. paused for a moment, and
observed that he should wish the stable-keeper to try the paces
of the horse, and examine him a bit. The stable-keeper said, that
according to the rules of dealing, that was not necessary, u there
was a warranty givcn. Oh, very svelte' quoth Mr. S. and
Pocketing his purse, invited the complainant to accompany him
to the nin the Mann, a public-house hard by, where he said
he would pay him. WLen they arrived. Mr. S. with great sang-
froid, handed, by way of payment, a bill of acceptance, which
complainant, oninspection, found was five months over due. He
rejected this with indignation, but hlr. S. refused to give him
ail other -kind of payment, and he walked back to the stables to
't.ke awarhis horse, observing, that " there was no barns done."
sin this conclusion, however, he was a little mistaken ; for on
arriving at the stables, he found that the horse had, in the. in-
4erhu, been taken away ! Ile hastened back immediately to the
nt l Men, in the hope of finding Mr. S. but he also had
+-i fished, leaving complainant nothing in lieu of his horse but
• `.e before-mentioned bill, which remained on the table, but
which he had since ascertained, as indeed he thought at the time,
W-1 not worth a farthing. He had been unable to find him
since, although he believed he had then souse scent of him, and
he wished to have a warrant against him ; or perhaps it would
he more advisable so take up the stable-keeper, who, he thought,
Isla implicated, and make him produce Mr. S.
Sir Kleiman lintnie said it appeared to be a gross trial, but
iv did not think he could well erant a warrant. The complain-
.aht might bring his action upon the bill.
The complainant said, the parties whose names were apon it
Owe not worth powder and shot.
Sir RICHARD liIHNIZ said it was of no use to bring up the
nal) le-keeper without the other, nor, indeed, either of them
/..ingit• The complainant might; if he chose, endeavour to find
Ni• S. and give him in charge to a constable, and then the stable-
Smarr could be made to appear also.
11IC sumplainaiir said hr would follow the advice of the worthy
ihaate, but nuthing :u tb;r bas been beard of the matter.
