PORTSMOUTH , APRIL 14.
FURTHER DISTURBANCES.

Yesterday evening an immense Concourse of
People, to the amount of Several thousands, as-
sembled in the town of Portsea, and began to
carry their design of demanding provisions at
a reduced price into execution. The military
beat to arms, and remained so in the Barracks
till near twelve o' clock at night. Three hun-
dred Constables, who had been made in the day
for the Occasion, entered amongst the people,
and after receiving some opposition, the crowd
were prevailed upon to disperse; but it was not
Until a late hour that the town was restored to
tranquillity. We are apprehensive that it is
not Over. Several towns in this neighbourhood
are in the same agitated Situation; and though
the People might be quieted for a season, no-
thing short of a very Considerable reduction in
the Price of provisions can effectually pacify
them.

a re-examination, on a charge of being guilty of
the wilful murder, of Isdwell Isdwell< no role > , and also
of being accessary to his escape from justice.

The Principal circumstance adduced at this
examination was the deposition of Barnet Solo-
mon, alias Bowley, who, as well as Day, one
of the turnkeys of New Prison , is admitted an
evidence for the Crown, which Principally
went to corroborate the testimony of Day, and
which was fully given in out former account,
with this addition only, that on the night, pre-
vious to the affair being put in execution, the
witness, with several more of the prisoners,
met at the house of Jonathan Jones< no role > , in Fashion-
Street , Spitalfields , where Mr. Tilley then was
in Company with Mrs. Isdwell; and on being
questioned by the witness relative to the affair in
agitation, he replied, that it could not fail of
Success, if they brought Isdwell to the place.
The men were all fully committed to take their
trials on both charges, and the women were
ordered to be re-committed for a further hear-
ing.

The next examination that took place, was
that of Juliet Norden< no role > , the young Jewess, who
stands charged on suspicion of having attmepted
to poison Moses, a person in custody, on sus-
picion of being concerned in the above-stated
forgeries, but who is to come forward at the
trial as an evidence for the Crown.

She declined saying any thing to the charge,
Mr. Knowles, her Counsel, not being present;
which induced the Magistrate to defer a final
hearing of it.
