ROW IN ST. GILES'S.

During the whole 4 Sunday gterooon, the pariskot of th.
Giles and Bloomsbury were one scene of riot and disturhane.,_
arising out of ot.e of those brawls which occasionally take pk.c:
between the low Irish residing in that quarter. About th„,'
o'clock, a mob of about 400 persons assembled in Buek„:4,7
street, armed with sticks and other weapons, and cornmenc;t ;
most desperate fight, each party being decorated with
guishing colours. The women employed themselves in ccrec.,
ing brickbats for their respective champions, and at length eee
party beat the other into High Holborn. The latter then rallied,
and forced the others back to St. Giles's again, where the aeraf
was truly dreadful, and no less titan 20 men were conveyed to
the hospitals and Doctors' shops, four of whom are not /aka,
to recover from their bruises. At length S. Furzman, eee
the constables of the parish, with about 20 assistants, arrived, 1=
were speedily repulsed; and it was not till Sir ROZERT lLus
sent a strong detachment of the Bow-street patrol, the;
anything like order could be maintained. The officers charged
upon them with their drawn swords, and succeeded in appre-
hending about twenty of the principal rioters, who were ;04c,
in the strong-room of Sr. Giles's watch-house. Aloaday they
were brought up to Bow-street Office for examination. The ph:.
goners being called on for their defence, all spoke at once, de_
dating they were pneeable men, and knew nothing at all of the
row. They were ordered to find good bail for their al iseateke
at the Sessions. On their names being called over by the cleric;
they generally answered " Here, y'r Honour :" Upon that of
Michael Taylor being called, the answer was," Faith, its Michael
Bryan, y'r Honour manes, and that's myself l"—It was stated
by one of the officers, in the course of the examination, that the
disturbances would not be so frequent, nor so fetociotn, if d
'were not for one Paddy APCormic, who kept a depot of
lagis, which kr let nut at a penny a dozen per ran!
