COURT OF KING'S BENCII.—(Tmn DAY.)

TIIF ICING C. CAIIPIFI L. '
This was an information. at the salt of Caplaln Mills, for
a libel. The circumstances of the ease mast be fresh in the
recollection of our readers. A charge of rape had been pre-
ferred against Captain Mills by his servant ; and, upon tb,
trial at the Old Bailey, the Captab; was acquitted. Tile d.-
f Diktat in this cause, immediately after the acquittal of
Captain Mills, wrote a letter to Baron Graham. who triad
the cause, and some expression in thls letter constituted
alleged libel.

RIOT AT BRIGHTON!!

(FROM TIIR BRIGHTON !IRAM)

The Anniversary of the Battle of Waterloo falling r n
Sunday last, the following day was more particiair.y
devoted to its celebrat. by the gallant Slst, who parti-
cipated in its glories. On such an occasion, it was
natural that some of our public-houses and streets shou:d
be wore distinguished for noise and intemperance than
order and sobriety. There was, however, nu seritus re-
cess committed by the soldiers; and all would have
passed off well, had it not been fur the wanton interposi-
tion and ruffianly conduct of a rabble, eomp.oied of per-
sons. almost rntirt• strangers to the town, oleo assailed,
and, in various instances, maltreated the military, !NMI
officers and privates. At one time, daring the evening,
the most alarming apprehensions were o dertained
the peaceable inhabitants from the collections of a owl.,
several hundreds in number, in Church-street, who at-
tacked the guard at the Barrack-gates. To the admir-
able forbearance of the officers anti privates of the 51v,
it is solely owing that blood was not shed, and lives
sacrificed. Self-defence almost called for those lament.
able results. By the exertions of Mr. Sergeant Run-
nings*, essi-Me-Basos, and of the High Constable and
his Heal'boroughs (the latter of whom acted in the most
exemplary manner), the populace were, at length. dv-
perseel, and tranquillity was restored. Since she shwa
affair, the excellent, if not unequalled bugle-band ut the
regiment, instead of sounding to quarters at their usual
sten.' (the bottom of Church-street), blow their 'rem/-
call inside the barrack-yard. We sincerely hope, buts.-
ever, that the Commanding (Hbt-er will shortly dertct it
to resume its former station, being convinced 0.4 t the
civil power will protect the harmonious suumeoner•
against any insults or annoyance from ill-disposed awl
malicious persons.

Sir Robert Baker resigned the oast of Chairmln
tJ the Westminster Sessions, yesterday at twclvt
o'clock, and F. Coast, Esq. was immediately ele:ted
the vacant chair.

HloT AT Telt dfrws.—At the Westminster
Sessions yesterday, IVilliersis Frills, a journeyman paint-
er, was charged upon two indictments for ahmulting B.
Westbrook and Richard Lintherisk, tem constables of
Bow-street, while in the execution of Idler dirty.
The reports circulated some days ago of insuhordina-
tion among the Boards in the Kings News, had col-
lected a large mob about the gates, and so violent were
the people in their conduct, that the pmesice of a large
portion of the civil force, under the direction'of
Birnie, the Magistrate, became necessary. In an at-
tempt to disperse the mob, We.tbrook.was stru:k by the
prisoner a severe blow in the mouth, upon which, Mr.
Birnie, who witnessed the assault, seized him and hand-
ed him to Limberick and Westbrook, who were imme-
diately assailed by the mob, knocked down and trampled
upon in the most savage manner. The prisoner was,
however, finally secured.
In his defence be said, be was a hard-working man,
and would be the last in the world to be guilty of such
conduct in his sober senses. On the night in question be
had drank a good deal, and knew not what he was about.
Several respectable tradesmen gave the prisoner ATI
excellent character for peaceable conduct, adding, that
when he drank only a small quantity, be was completely
deranged.. The Corer, in coasidevation of these circumstances,
sentenced the prisoner only to seven days imprisonment,
and to find sureties for his future good behaviour; inti-
mating, however, that the punishment would lave been
a most severe one, bet for the character be had received.
It is a general observation of the toll-bar-keepers and
others well acquainted with the roads about Stamford,
that the influx of Irish labourers at this time greatly ex-
ceeds that of former years. The great north road lite-
rally swarms with these poor fellows in search of harvest
work.
