John Wray, the landlord of the "Man of Kent," Paradise Street, appeared on a summons charging him with harbouring some of the Staffordshire Militia when the picket called at his house, but as no prosecutor appeared, the case was ordered to stand over till Monday. The Bench on this case occasion administered Wray for his conduct, by which he had rendered himself to a penalty of £20 or six month's imprisonment. As the sole object of Col. Talbot was to prevent a repetition of the offence, it is probably that the caution of the magistrates will have the desired effect, and that no further proceedings will be taken.
