As he was proceeding alohg the stecets, he continued howling like a wild Indian, and on his arrival at the corner of George-street, he remained stationary, insulting every body that passed by.

The officers were covered with bruises ih con; sequence of his violence, and when he was bound, having no other mode to vent his spleen, he bit and spat at those surrounding him.
