increased, and the firing from.the. 
first and second story was re- 
peated to the number of five or 
six shots, but we are happy to 
state without doing further mis- 
chief than wounding a boy in the 
neck. The wound was not con- 
sidered dangerous. Every other. 
part of the town was perfectly 
quiet. The military were in great 
numbers, particularly the horse, 
and at several houses belonging 
to the members who have sup- 
ported the Corn Bill, foot soldiers 
were stationed. in fact, London 
was now environed with troops on 
all sides. 
7.—The Prince of Aremberg 
who died at Vienna on the 7th, 
lost his life by the following ac- 
cident:—A very spirited horse 
which he was riding in St. Jo- 
seph’s-square, knocked down a 
woman. The prince with much 
difficulty succeeded in stopping 
his horse, and alighted to inquire 
into the situation of the woman, 
who had fortunately received no 
serious injury, though greatly 
alarmed.. The young prince again 
mounted his horse, whichappeared 
tranquil, but shortly afterwards 
reared and threw his rider. _ His 
head was nearly laid open, and the 
horse with a single kick broke 
several of his ribs. He was con- 
veyed in a lifeless state to the 
house of his brother-in-law, prince 
Schwartzenberg. This accident 
calls to mind. those which have 
already taken place in the same 
family. The father of the young 
prince received, when hunting, a 
gun-shot in his eye, by which he 
was deprived of sight; his mo- 
ther was guillotined ; his brother 
was forced to banish himself in 
consequence of a duel, in which 
he had the misfortune to kill his 
adversary ; and finally, his sister 
perished in the fire which broke 
out in the house of prince Schwart- 
zenberg, at Paris. 
§8.—An attempt was made. to 
excite a riot at Canterbury, on 
account of the Corn Bill. A num- 
ber of the lower orders paraded 
the effigy of a noble Earl through 
the principal streets of the city ; 
and in the evening, having re- 
turned to the front of the Guild- 
hall, consigned it to the flames, 
amidst hootings, hisses, and 
groans. They then proceded to 
acts of violence, by breaking the 
windows of John Baker, esq. one 
of the members of parliament for 
the city, at St. Stephens; and of 
Mr. D. J. Parker, at the end of 
North-lane. The disturbances, 
however, were speedily quelled, 
and next day, John Jarman, .one 
of the rioters, was committed to 
gaol, together with his brother 
Thomas Jarman, who had _ at- 
tempted a rescue. 
Lord Sidmouth, as home se- 
cretary, has addressed the follow- 
ing circular to the several parishes 
in the metropolis :— 
(CIRCULAR. 
« Whitehall, March 9, 1815. 
«¢ Sir— Under the present cir- 
cumstances of riot and disturban- 
ces in different parts of the metro- 
polis, lord Sidmouth is extremely 
anxious that, in addition to, the 
measures adopted by. the govern- 
ment for the preservation of the 
peace and the protection of the in- 
habitants of the town, and con- 
formably to the Prince Regent’s 
proclamation of this day, every 
possible effort should be. used 
within the several parishes for the 
same purpose. With this view
