DAT. Iif,ANCIASSTIR, OCTOBSA L PRIVATE LITTHIL Subscriptions are coming in from all parts of the country, in aid of the Fund for the Relief of the un employed Weavers and Spinners. The Magistrates, conceiving that these subscriptions have a tendency to promote and encourage combinations among the workmen, have done all in their power to prevent their collection, but hitherto with very little effect for the Delegates employed in this business, manage their business in a very dextesous manner, and avoid all open collections. Large sums have been collected in the various Benefit Clubs, Friendly Societies, and Odd Fellows' Lodges, in different parts of the country. We still remain sianquil here ; but I learn that mush apprehension of another firns-ord among the Weavers, exists in most of the towns and villages between this place and Preston :—at the latter town, I - am informed, the inert belonging to the Mills of Messrs. Horrocks and Co. still hold out, peremptorily refusing to work for them. There is, indeed, much murmuring and dissatisfaction among the Weavers it Stockport, Ashton, Bolton ; and, in fact, in every other town in this district. All persons allow that their wages are much too low, and that their corn 'plainu and demands are perfectly reasonable. The utmost advance ,they require would not bring their average weekly earnings higher than 16s. or 175..-- Surely this is but a small pittance to maintain a hard-working man, with, in many cases, the addition of a numerous family. The Masters, on the other hand, affirm that they cannot give the advance re quired. This is a lamentable state of things ; and calls lcudly for alteration and amendment. As matters at present stand, every housekeeper, however scanty his means, is heavily taxed, in the shape of Poor levies, to make up the deficiency of the wages of those, from whose labours they derive no interest whatever, and who ought to receive suf ficient to maintain themselves comfortably through a far different and less degrading source. It is quite useless to pursue this subject any far ther ; as it is evident that something effectual must speedily be done by the Legislature, both for the re lief of the industrious and suffering mechanics, and to prevent our best hands from emigrating to enrich other nations by that industry and skill which they would cheerfully devote to uphold the splendour of their own native country, did that country but yield them wherewith to procure the common comforts of life.
