Mr. HUME then continued his reply, and disclaimed any inten tion to be personal with respect to the flight Hon. Gentleman. Alderman HSYGATE spoke to order. He considered it irre- Lulu for a mover of a motion to address the House after a motion to adjourn. The SPRARER nid a Member might offer his reasons for con tinuing the consideration M the question instead of sdjourning.

Trthe Couit of Chancery, yesterdar, the cases of the " Swallaw-street Chapel," and " Edenhornugh v. the Bishop of n nilen and others." were briefly alluded to, bat nothing particu- SW Was details thew. Honourable Member also observed upon the decrease, .with repect to sugar. If there was anything in the statements of his Honourable Friend which had staggered him, it was that which he had made re lative to the increase of crime, as proved by the number of commitments which had taken place.— He vibuld entreat •the attention of the House to this part of the subject fnr a few minutes. His Hon ourable Friend had said, that notwithstanding the greatl pins which h a d been taken to better the condition of the people, by a general diffusion of knowledge, and more complete means of instruction, it was a melan choly fact r that of late years a great increase of crime had taken place; hilt he did not think that he had ad vested to a circumstance which made a material differ ence in the calculation ; the difference between a period con,sequent'upon a state of war, and a state of peace.— He had taken the average of two periods, from 1809 to 1814, and from 1814 to 1825. Now, he would think the calculation more fair; and the estimate more just, if a line were drawn between 1816 and 1817, because the disbanding of the army did not take place until the latter year, or rather till 1818. tithe line was drawn then and the average above that time taken, it woulctappear that a great increase had taken place. The average of the.keeen years of war, previously to 1816. was 6.700 commitments, and that of the next seven 13.000. Thete was an increase all of a sudden, which could not be accounted for in any other way than by the dis banding of the army, and the consequently great num ber of persons who weteout of employment. In 1816, the number of commitments was 9091, being an- in crease of nearly 20:0 over that of the pieceding year; and, in 1817, - 18,932 being an increase of nearly .5,001 Now, if the House would consider these things as arising out of the previous war, and the disbanding of the 'trmy, and partly from the scarcity owing to the bad harvest of 1816, it would pause before it concluded that the more extended education of the people had not produced a salutary effect, and that that effect had not resulted in a diminu tion of crime. Having said so much, he would not now trouble the House with any further observations. He did not think that he had omitted anything on which the Right Hon. Gentleman had touched, which was worthy of discussion, with respect to the motion of his Hon. Friend—a motion which he most sincerely and heartily thanked his Honourable Friend for bringing forward, and for which the House, when it came to reflect upon the subject, would also feel grateful, because he had, with incredible labour and perse verance, with an industry and patience peculiar to himself, and which he believed no other man in the House would have had the courage to undertake—gone through a mass of accounts the mist intrincate and confute.' which could well be imagined, and deduced from them the clearest and most intelligible statements and references—all leading to the deductions in his forty-seventh proposition, as the• result of the whole inquiry, that we ought to review cur expenditure, and not only not exact millions from the pockets of the people, but not even one shilling mere than was abso lutely necessary, and that the sooner an effectual course of reformation was pursued, so that the people should, be relieved of the bnrthens by which they were weighed ' doWn and oppressed, in the only way in which they could be effec. malty and permanently relieved, the sooner and bettir they would discharge their duty to their constituents, and the more happy would they be to meet them again. Mr. II ABRRLY roe amidst a loud call for the" Ciposties Be was desirous of sayi. g a few words in vindication of the Hen. Member for Montrose. He considered the statement made by dm Hen. Member correct. In 181:41 the public debt was 31,0001. more Wan In 1819. He deprecated the Sinking Fund, end expressed kls reedit's'', in consequence at the remark made by the Member the Whiehelses, to assist in the management if public accounts and the making of a balance sheet. Mr. ROBERTSON rue to give his opinion upon the question, but th e cry of " No, No! Question, Question ." prevented the Hon. Member from Being beard. Finding the Halve unwilling to bear furthei debate, the Hon. Member moved to adjourn. EVENING STAR. LONDON. FRIDAY, MAY 5, 16246. STOCK EXCHANGE, TWRisVit O'CLOCK.

This has been the case at New Islington, near Manchester, and at Brad ford, 'where, although the weavers had long struck for higher wages, they had conducted themselves peaceably. With respect to the affair at New Islington, the private letter from nur Correspondent contains the latest par ticulars. One of the persons wounded was a cotton spinner out of work, of the name of Harrison. With regard to Bradford, the town appears to have been in a feverish state for some days; and a Meeting of unem ployed ,workmen took place on Fairweather Green on Monday, when they marched to North Wing Mill, and attacked it twice, but were repulsed. Nothing transpired until Wednesday, when a second Meeting was held at the same place, the fatal particulars of wh ch will be found in the subjoined extracts from the Leeds Intel tower of yesterday. FROM OUR CORRISPONDiIIt. " MAIICIUSTIII, Taoßßz•: MORXISO, i O'CLOCT, MAT 4. lienthester helot unquestionably the seined town In. the arid& iblininions, it is my duty as well as inclination, at this im- Portant Imam, to lay before your Readers the occurrences that are now taking place in the town and in the populous neighbour hood. that come within ray own personal observation or are pro perly authenticated. TuesdaY, a greater number of calicoes were Mid than on the preceding market day; and I have the pleasure to stequint you, that a tolerable quantity were also disposed of yester day, certainly_at low prices: good water twist, No. $4, was sold at Did. per lb. deducting led. per lb. for present cash payment. In my letter of yesterday I omitted to notice that on Tuesday evening there was an assemblage of unemployed weavers in the neighbour hood of Bank-tap, who attempted to force the power-loom factory of Messrs. Johnson and Co. lam informed by a very respectable person, on whose testimony I can rely, that two persons were wounded, the proprietors having stationed a guard in the interior of the premises. They were immediately taken care of ; one of these was conveyed to Mr. Windsor's, an eminent surgeon in Piccadilly, and every assistance aforded, but he soon died; the other was taken to the Infirmary. lam informed bey one connected with that valuable establishment, which affords relief to all classes, and is undoubtedly one of thobest institutions of the kind in Lan cashire, he was alive about nine o'slock last evening. Yesterday passed of as quietly as could be expected. The military are on duty in various towns within twenty miles of this place. Tice in- 1 fantry are no doubt sufficient for the protection of the town. I trust in Gen the miltary will use the same patience and forbearance they did here on Friday and Saturday last. I highly admire, and so must retry reasonable man, the conduct 'of Mr. Erierly, of Mr. Norris, of Mr. Foster, and of Mr. Lavender, under very trying circumstances : they exercised patience and perseverance, and they certainly are entitled to the best thanks of every good. meaning man in the kingdom—The Meeting in London, on Tees slay, will be bailed with delight. We want bread ; we want em ployment. My next shall pi more into detail Public notices have again been distributed, which are very proper, but the post is going of Limns Ti THURSDAY MORNIAG, OKR feCIACX.—The news of the onfortu. nate occurrences at Bradford to-day has excited much agitation is Leeds. Thousands of people collected this evening, itt Briggate, and by shooting, atc. kept up an incessant noise for some hours. The Magistrates, in consequence, issued an order to the constables and police officers to clear the streets, which they effectually accom plished, much aping the inclination of the crowd. Tors great praise cannot be given to Mr. Head, the Chief Constable, and his subordinates, for the manner in which they performed this arduous duty. We are only sorry that two or three of the latter have re ceived serious injuries front the stones thrown at them by the more stubborn of the mob. several of whom are now in custody in our Court House. The town is pet fectly quiet at present. We goy the press to mention that two prisoners front Bradford have passed through this town, under an escort of the Yorkshire Hussars, on thek way to Turk Castle, fully committed for trial. DREADFUL AFFRAY. At one o'clock, not more than a dozen people were on the ground, but they continued to increase till near three. when there was perhaps a t►ousand—they seemed quite at a loos what to do. There were no hustings eiected, or other previous preparations made; and being without leader or spokesman of any description, they appeared' to be quite at sea, as to the-object of their meeting, except what was contained in the general terms expressed in the handh•lls— nor could it he ascertained. although intiolry was made on the spot, who it was that called them together. Mere seemed, however, to be at, understanding orneriest them, that they were going to march to the mill of 'Messrs. tio►sfall, as they did on Monday. Some of them proposed, not by way of resolution for ;eneral adoption, hut inertly suggested in the course of a desultory conversation, 1 that the most Ctt e stilll *mild be to pass a neoaltetlon to the effect, that a be torthWitb pronentod Ss the Lerida tare, requesting that the present state of she Con Laws be Jaime diately taken into Consideration. Another priposed that they AMU! petition fret Parliamentary Reform. That melds. Was passed in an Adel way. 'After forming In several mope till About twenty naltUtei pelt three, they again moved in a body to Messrs. Honiara mlll, where they arrived a little before four o'clock. • They began throwing stones at the windows as before. We should here rematk, that the squares which were broken' . in Monday, about 140 in number, had been since glazed. They continued at this work for about half an hour when they bad completely drove in three of the windows, stancheons, frames, sad everything con nected With them. On Tuesday,"'Amen bad been employed In fixing iron bars in front of the low windows; and, as the doors were secured by straw three-inch deals, it was almost impossible to farce an entrance.— At half-past four o'clock, Colonel Plumbe Tempest, accompanied by a ;amber of special constables,'stood on the ground adjoining the Mill, and read the Riot 'Act. The mob still sheered no disposition to disperse, but continued throwing stones at the windows for some time afterwards. All other efforts hitherto adopted proving un availing, the persons who were in the care of the mill, amounting, we believe, to 100, Ared about AO shots upon the mob, which wounded several, and made the others leave that part of the ground, and go to the other side of the ntill. Several persons were now engaged, in carrying the wounded to the Dispensary, which was not far from the spot. One of the guards in the mill then appeared at the opening of a window in the upper story on the south side, when there was a tremendous rush along the opening from the mill to the street, in which several females and othors were thrown down, but without any serious accident. The civil power being now found insualcient to restore order, two troops of the Yorkshire Human were immediately ordered out, and proceeded, with Lord Grantham and Colonel Yorks at their head, to the scene of action, when part of the mob dispersed ; others remained on a piece of ground eastward of the mill, about a yard higher than that which the Yeomanry occupied. Taking ad vantage of their situation. they threw some stoues at the officers, when a few of the Hussars leaped the walls, and drove them off in all directions. The neigbourbood of the mill now became clear but the streets adjoining continued to be crowded o the mob offered no violence, but often manifested symptoms of disapprobation by hissing and shauting. The Mowing Is a list of suck of the wounded as were retained in Bradford. William Walker, Baildeu, shot through the right arm. James Britton, of Queen's Head; he received a ball under the shoulder blade, which passed through the longs and came out at his right breast. He was not expected to live. Charles Wilton, of Halifax, shot above the left breast. William Briggs, of Bingley, shot through the arm. Jahn Barker, Clayton, w , shot through the wrist. Them were all young men, from i• to 25 years of age. Edward Fearnley, a buy 13 years aid, received a ball just below the navel. John Taylor, 7 years obi, son of a woman in the workhouse, was shot in the groin. He was attracted to the spot on his return from school. In addition to these, three others were wounded in different parts of their bodies. Not a towsman of Bradford is among the wounded, and the mob was chiefly composed of the inhabitants of the neighbouring villages. Mexican Papers have been received at the North and South American Coffee-house, to the 4th March. The Colombian brig of . war, Gen. MANRIOUR, arrived at Vera Cruz on the 2slMarch, in twelve days' passage, having on board a Commissioner from the Colombian Government to that of Mexico. The Altgenzeine Zeitung of the 28th tilt. received this morning, states that the article from Berlin, in the French 'Papers, of Russia having sent its ultimatum to the Porte, " is believed to proceed from a much more important source than a mete private communication." This Journal then alludes to the former treaties oetween l Russia and Turkey, particularly the treaty of Kaiwardy, concluded on the 18th of January, 1775, which stipulates security lor Wallachia and Moldaviii with respect to re ligion ; amnesty for the countries which had been in the hands of the Russians during the war; and the admission of the Ru,sian right of protection. In the 17th Article, Russia gives back the Islands of the Archipelago on the same conditions; and the Convention of Constanti nople, concluded in 1779, stipulates, in the 7th Ait'cle, indemnities for the inhabitants of the Mom, on account of the war, and the. same security and protection for them as for the inhabitants of the two principalities. If these are the demands of the Emperor of RUSSIA now, they do not afford so 'good a prospect for the Greeks as could be wished. Last night. in the House of Commons, Mr. Hums brought forward his promised motion on the State of the Nation, and concluded a speech of nearly four hours' length with moving " that an address be presented to his Msreser, praying that he win be graciously pleased to take Into consideration the present state of the nation." In the course of his speech he embodisd his opinion in a string of forty-seven Resolutions, which went to condemn the whole of our present financial system. This system is charged by Mr. Hume, in the Resolutions, with increasing the privations and distress of the laborious classes of the community, and decreasing the consumption of malt; and with having increased crime, and diminished the consumption of spirits and tobacco. The CUANCIILLOII of the Review= ably and successfully com bated the opinions of Mr. Hums, refuted some of his assertions, and tripped up a few of his assumptions; when the motion of the Hon. Member was negatived by a majority of IS4 to 51. The question of the Bonded Corn was adjourned to this evening. Accounts from Lisbon, of the 15th April, state that a report prevailed there, that the command of the Portuguese troops would be cnnhded to an English General. According to accounts from Vienna, the Entpernr of Avvrau has dispatched Count Waxerzu to Constantinople to solicit the Porte to comply with the Ultimatum of Russia.

The cotton-spinners ut three cotton factories struck work this morning, because their masters wi.bed to reduce the rate of wages in paid them to the same rate as is paid by the cotton - spinne r.
