STAFFORDSHIRE. 



An intelligent agent belonging to the 

 Marqub of Stafford has lately discovered 

 a method of effectually extracting hydro- 

 gen or inflammable gas, in coal mines, by 

 means of rarefaction on the surface of the 

 ground. 



At the late Stafford Sessions, a Mr. 

 Flint and several other persons were in- 

 dicted for a riot, and for opposing the con- 

 stables of Stafford in the execution of 

 their duty. The riot, &c arose out of a 

 disputed claim to the possession of some 

 land, and Mr. C. Flint, a clerk to his bro- 

 ther, an attorney at Uttoxeter, was the 

 legal adviser of one of the persons inter- 

 ested. The parlies were all found guilty 

 and sentenced to imprisonment and hard 

 labour. On this extraordinary affair the 

 British Press well and indignantly ob- 

 serves that the power vested in the 

 Justices of the Peace is at once so exten- 

 sive and uncontrolled, that it has become 

 at length an undefined tyranny of the 

 worst kind. This never was intended to 

 be the condition of the people of this 

 country. Mr. Charles Flint, a young 



[Feb. I, 



gentleman under the articles of clerkship, 

 has been sentenced to three months' ini- 

 prisonment and the labour of the Tread 

 mill, for no other offence than requiring 

 from a consfabte the sight of his warrant!
