bad no effect but to encourage them,—the Riflemen began to take deadly nip ; and several persons fell, some mortally wounded. Tile mob then gave way, and part of, them were pursued by the military, whose attention was thus drawn off from the premises; no sooner were their backs turned, than the work of destruction recommen ced ; and the whole of the looms, 46 in number, weie completely broken. The military then went back to the factory, where they made a number of prisoners, driving the mob entirely away from the premises, to the neighbouring hilly. The military then returned to It rmsbottom, with their prisoners ; and before they had reached that place, the rioters came back to Mr. Aikin's premises, where they destroyed two dressing machines, which had previously escaped their notice. The desperation and audacity of the !inters was quite as conspicuous on this occasion, as at Blackburn. At the vey time when the troops were firing incessantly 'upon them, many of them fearlessly entered the mill by the windows, to destroy the looms; whilst others eefied the voldiers by all sorts of provoking expres sions and gestures ; some holding up handkerchiefs, and asking the riflemen to shoot at them, and many of them continued to throw stones without intermission. Of these, a number were picked out, and shot by the riflem n; arnong4 others, we believe, the man who hit Colonel Kearney with a stone, was shot, at the same instant, by two h ;11s, one of which passed through his body, and the other entered. the back of hi: head. In the whole, considerably above 100 shots were fired ; but by fJr the greater part of them over the heads of the people. The number who were killed on the spot, or died of their wounds within a few hours, is six, one of whom,we are sorry to say, is a woman. Their names are Richard Lund, by trade a blacksmith, but who kept a small shop at Ilaslint den; shot through the belly. Janes Rgthwell, a weaver at Haslingden; through the breast." John Ashworth, a weaver at Haslingden; through the body. James Lord, a fulling-miller at Newchurch; through the body and bead. James Whttacre, dresser !Or Messrs. Rostrons' power•looms thro:igh the body. Mary Simpson, wife of Simpson, a weaver at Haslingden; through the left thigh. _ _ _ Of these unfortunate men, Lund, Lord, and What acre, had wives and families ; the other two, we believe, were unmarried. Lund, Ashworth, Rothwell, and Lord, are stated to have been extremely active in the riot ; but Whatacre, we believe, had no participation in it whatever. Of the number wounded on this occasion it is impos sible to speak with any degree of certainty, as some of them came from the distant places, and were carried away by their friends. The number is stated to be very consider able ; but we have only heard the names of six, four of whom are dangerously wounded. Amongst the prisoners taken on this occasion, was the constable of Edenfield, who, being alarmed for' his safety, ran into a pig stye, whither he was followed by the military, and apprehended. Notwithstanding the loss of lives, and the wounds inflicted on this occasion, the rioters were in nowise in timiiated or deterred from their porpo e. After they had completed the destruction of Mr. Aikin's looms, &c. they proceeded to the factory of Messrs. Hamer and Son, at Sumerscat, on the road to Bury, where they broke all the looms, 36 in number. They then went on to the factory of Mr. James qutchinson, at Wood-hill, quite close to the town of Burr, wheie they broke about fifty looms, out cf 200 which the factory contained. Information of their proceedings having been promptly conveyed to Bury,a party of rill .men immediately turned out, and Captain Goldfrap, at the head of 20 men, ran at full speed to the factory, where they arrived in time to save the bulk of the looms, and to take fourteen pri• soners, several of whom were apprehended in the factory. They were all (as well as those taken at Chatterton) lodged in prison at Bury. They were yesterday brought p for examination, when three of those taken at Mr. Hutchinson's fact.rry were committed on a charge of high treason. We believe they all come from Darwen, but we have not heard their names. Of the remainder, twenty-three have been held to bail on a charge of riot, and two are remanded for further examination. Shortly after noon on Thursday, a large mob made their appearance at one of the factories belonging to Messrs. George aad Robert Milton, of Chorley, where there were nearly a hundred steam-looms. The principals were not at home, but the overlooker locked up the mills. When they made their appearance he mounted an elevated situation,and addressed them,stating that his employers were gradually stopping the looms,as the wor k in them was finished, and did not intend again to employ them : he hoped they would go away and do no mischief. Ac•insiderable proportion seemed disposed to act on ris advice ; but several rough fellows immediately said, if the looms were not to be worked again, they might as well break them at any rate. The word was then given, and instantly obeyed, to force the doors ; they set to ar the looms, as many of them as the room would liold, with large hedge stakes, and where these would not do, they tore off the beams, and prized the other oarts of the loom to pieces with them. Some had large knives, with which they cut up the yarn and cloth on the looms, making, in short, a complete scene of devas tation. One fellow was beginning to tear down a gas pipe; the overlooker got hold of him, and said, td Don't 'Toil that gas-pipe—that is no loom, you are doing mis chief enough without that." The man looked up very deliberately, and said, " Well, then, I son's." Colonel Silve.ter, the Magistrate, attended as soon as possible, And read the Riot Act, amidst volleys of stones flying n all directions, by whtch several of the people belong ing to the mill were much hurt. M A NCH ESTER, Aran. 0. Thursday morning, groups of men and boys began tip collect in the neighbourhood of St. George's•ro:sd, (Neat Newten•street, &c. dcc• and ft .rmed themselves into a body. in a field near St. George's-road, where, shout ten o'clock, they held a sort of meeting. They %ere addressed by a person mounted on the shoulders of .nother man, the burthen of whose speech chiefly was ~ lat they were peaceable apd disposed to peace, but they wanted bread. After a short tispe they adjourned to six o'clock in the evening. In the mean time, groups of lisorderly persons were perambulating the neighbour• hood, and from their language and hearing it was confi dently expected that mischief would be done at night. —At the tirneef their adjourned meeting, there were collected together about three thousand people, chiefly hoys, sLotiting and making a most tumultuous noise. They were addresses! by Mr. Prentice, of the Manches- Icy vaaeUe , who remonstrated with them on the impolicy o f their Ploseedings, reatemmended pat . ence to them, ;Ind said that these MU a very general and anxious de ire tluougliout the town w alleviate ►heir distress, as far as was possible, and that another subscription would be immediately catered into; his obsavations, however, wese heard with a great deal of impatience•. Jonathan Hodgins, the journeyman spinner, who has on several occasiqns etrincei so Much good sence, also addresie3 them, and recommended that another Petition shout.' be sent up to PArliament, plying an inst Ant revision of the Corn Ltws. If that was not attended to, they might go so far as to remonstrate, but their present proceedings were totally unsuited to obtain their ends. He was frequently interrupted by cries of We've petitioned long enough," &c. and one person called out Will you let me eat at your table till the answer comes?' A cry of the constables having reached the grnund, however, caused the mob to decamp in all directions ; one party of eighty or one hundred took the direction of Great Anco it's -street, and proceeded, their numbers increasing as they went along, to the mill of Mr. Hugh Beaver, in Jersey-street, which contains a considerable number of power-looms. The mob imme• diately began to demolish the windows of the counting house, and of the lower stories of the factory, through which pieces of burning cotton were thrown. • ,The counting-house and the first story were immedia•ely set in flames, which had communicated to the room where the grey goods wete kept, befoie the arrival of the engines. About the nine time, a large party of special constables, and some of the military arrived, and cleared the ground in front of the mill. The engines having a plentiful supply of water, the factory standing upon the banks of the Rochdale canal, and most part of it being fire-pr flames were soon got and r, and by ten o'clock were totally ettinguished. It is understood, that the damage done at Mr. Beavers will be from three to four thousand pounds. Yesterti g ly morning, groupes of idle and disorderly persons, chiefly boys, had assembled in various parts in the neighbourhood of George's-road and Ancoat's-lane ; in Swan -street, Ancoat's•lane, And Great Newton -street, about noon, there were several p sties of roughsfellows, who were calling at the different shops, and public and private houses, levying contributions in money or provisions. The'r object, however, seemed chiefly to be the former; and persons were pretty generally in duced, from an apprehension lest violence might be committed, to comply with their demands. In one instance, they had the audacity to stop a stage coach. and demand and obtain money from the passengers. The bustle and excitement of the period WAS t•+ken ad vantage of by the professed tt:i•.yes, who swarm in the neighbourhood of St. George's-road ; and for some hours in the afternoon, not a decently dressed person could make his appearance in the neighbourhood without being attacked. The number and boldness of the robberies committed were such as in open daylight, and in the centre of a large town, we never heard of before. Most of the actual disturbance in this town during Friday, up to the hour at which we are writing (seven o'clock in the evening), may, we believe,, be fairly stated to have been the work of professed thieves. We may observe, however, that even people in gigs, and on horseback, were stopped, and their property forcibly taken from them. Hats and watches were snatched away, great coats seized, and pockets emptied in almost innumerable instances. From the persons who had been superintending the distribution of pro visions at the different depots yesterday, we learn that the poor whom they saw there all seemed to evince the hest spirit, and to view with extreme disapprobation and regret, the riotous and destructive proceedings which tad taken place in other .parts of the manufacturing districts, and particularly in this town. A company of the Rocket Brigade reached this town yesterday forenoon, and the Cheshire Yeomanry, 200 strong, arrived About half-past two in the afternoon, The former, we are sorry to .sap were severely pelted with stones in the neighbourhood of the New Cross. The Police went up to that place about the same time, for the purpose of attempting to take into custody some of the fellows who were levying contributions, but hav ing no military with them, Mr. Lavender, who had only six assistants, found it impossible to interfere. IRON TU MANCHESTIIR GAZIETTR Or SATURDAY. About ten o'clock on Thursday a party of the laneen's Bays arrived, headed by our Police Magistrate, J. F. Foster, E q. Major Eckersly, the Captain of the Troop, Mr. Wanksyn, and accompanied by two coaches, in which were Mr. Hibbert, Mr. Brierly, and other Ma gistrates and Gentlemen. The Riot Act was then read, and placards, stating that fact, were posted in various directions. The Bays patrolled the neighbourhood, but met with no insult or opposition, and by twelve o'clock, peace and quietness were completely restored. Amongst the factories that had windows broken, was that of Mr. Hat bottle, which the mob erroneously supposed to con tain power looms. To the prudent plan adopted by several owners of factories, of having armed men stationed at the win dows, may be attributed the comparatively trifling damage which these establishments sustained. The plan, we are inf . ( rased, will now be adopted in every factory; and for this purpose, in addition to a large ac cession of military strength, there arrived in this town yesterday from Chester Castle, an ample supply of am , munition, which is to be distributed to the several owners of factories, in order that they may defend themselves from any Future att tck ; thus each of these large cstablishments will become well provided garrisons. The objects to which the fury of the lower orders appears to be principally directed are power-looms, and persons who work at a reduced rate of wages— whom they term knohsticks. An instance of their hatred. to the latter occurred on Wednesday night. As soon as the people employed in the factory of Mr. James Ken nedy, in Ancoat's•lane, had left off work. they ware attacked by a mob of several thousand individuals. One man they beat in a dreadful manner, and then thrust him into the canal, but front its being fortunately not. deep enough to take him over head, he contrived, by the assistance of some humane persons on the opposite bank to get out. Two other men were also beaten and thrown into the water. Two or three police officers were witnesses of this transaction, but the mob was so great, and the spirit which it numifested so sa vage and daring. that the least attempt to interfere would have been at the hazard of their lives. 71t0h1 TUE LIMOS httillCUßY. Wednesday, about five o'clock in the afternoon, a mob, consisting of from four. to five hundred peop:e. entered the village of Addingham, armed with pistols, bludgeons, axes, and other offensive weapons, and pro ceeded in regular order to the premises of Mr. Jere miah llorsfall, of the Low Mills, and demanded adinit tance. Mr. Lawson, superintendent of the mill, stated that he could not accede to this request, but that he was willing to give them a sum of money (or their.relief, adding, that the wmk•people were welLarmed, and determined to defend Ore mill. The assailants, upon rewiring this answer, immediately commenced their attack (a pistol having been fired AS a signal) by dis charging a volley of . large stones through the windows, l which was retrained by a discharge of the same missiles from within ; but the bes eged finding this 'mode of 'defence ihefficignr, resorted to their.fi warms, firing, in the first instance, purpmely over the heads of the assailants, but the attack being persisted in. -the nest discharge was•levelled at the rioters. The tirilw from the mill, and the discharge,of stones from the assailants, continued for a a considerable time. . - The rioters meeting with so formidable a resistance, soon rel4xed in they attack, and when E. C. Lister, Esq. of Manningham, who had been sent for as the nearest Magistrate, arrived, the most active of the rioters had dispersed. Mr. Lister, upon his arrival at the scene of action, read the riot act, and the remainder dispersed without offering any further violence. The injury done to the machinery was not material, hut about 690 squares of glass in the windows of the mill were broken. During the firing, which was only with shot, it is supposed that about twenty persons were wounded, eleven of them so severely as to need surgical attendance at Addingham, but we understand that only ore person is considered to be in danger. During the greatest part of the day, the bills round Addingham were covered with people, to the number of several thousands, waiting for a favourable opportunity for renewing the attack, but being apprised of the arrival of the military, they held a Council of War, and, after rmie consultation, withdrew their forces. About three o'clock this afternoon an express arrived here, that the loom-breakers had assembled in great numbers in Chorley, and were preparing to attack the power-looms it, that place, and, of cour.e ' no soldiers being there, about 70 of the Ist Dragoon Guards went off at full gallop, sword in hand, to the assistance of the power loom masters there. However, befare the soldiers retched their ee.tination, ninety pair were demolished, and all the loom-breakers had diverged. Monday, in our town, five couple presented themselves at the altar to get the hymeneal knot tied, but such was the alarm that no Priest could he found to tie the knot. Half•past Nine o'Clock, r m. PRIVATE tr.TTnas.- FRIDAY EVININtI, 6 o'flock. " The spirit of riot which has been en actively at work this week in this neighbourhood has at leng.h extended itself to the town, and for the greatest part of yesterday and the whole of to-day, the inhabita..ts have been in a state of consilerable alarm. The boroughmrn and constables received intelligence on Thursday that a number of men of suspicious appearance had been seen that morning to come into the town from the Ilaslingden and Blackburn roads, where the destruction of power looms has been carried on se sys tematically, and that it had been arranged that a large assemblage was to meet in the evening in the neighbourhood of St. George's Fields, and an attack was to be then made upon some of the power loom milk. The number of military in the town having been much diminished this week, in consequence of the various detach ments that have been sent to Bury, Blackburn, &c. and the other regulars that had been sent for not having arrived, Mr. Cross, one of the head constables, went in the afternoon of Thursday to Sir John Fleming Leicester, at Tapley, the Colonel of the Cheshire Yeomanry, requesting he would immediately assemble his regiment, and send them to assist in the protection of the town. The special constables were all assembled in the morning of Thursday, and ordered to meet again at five in the evening, at the Town-hall. The constables promptly obeyed the call,and assembled in great numbers. " To.day the mob again assembled at the obl rallying . point, the New Cross. A number of them proceeded to the shops of the bakers and provision dealers, and;conipelled them to give provisions. Although the streets have been paraded all the day by the mili tary, who have amongst them some Congreve rockets and a field piece, the crowd does not disperse. Any constable who is separatikl for a very short distance front the military. is immediately attacked with stones. Numbers of infamous villains, the refuse of Angel Meadow, took the opportunity of attacking every person of respec table appearance, and robbing them. They run in a numerous body to persons, with their hats iq their hands, pretending to beg, but; by violence, obtain every thing in their pockets. The number of Gentlemen so robbed is very great. " Generally, the poorer classes, who are watching the proceed ings, express their abhorrence of such conduct. Many of them express themselves very grateful for the provisions delivered to them in consequence of the subscriptions made in their behalf. To-day, placards are posted, announcing a gift of 1,0001. from his Most Gracious ISlejessy, for toe relief of our distressed poor. This has led to a second sobscription amongst the principal inhabitants. The Bight Hob. It. Peel has given .501. to the subscription, and the houses of Birley abd Co. J. and B. Barton, and Jones, Lloyds, and Co. 150/. each. _ _ _ " About midnight the inhabitants were much alarmed by the ringing of the Are bells, and every person feared some o th er mill had [been attacked. The fire proved to be at _a hat manufactory of Mr. r 'Walk's, in Xiajok,street, which was completely destroyed. There "does not appear anysesson for supposing the fire was caused by any incendiary.

A circular has. been issued from the War Office regulating the allowances made to Clergymen for performing Divine Service to the Troops its Great Britain and Ireland. According to this regu lation, if the number of troops is so great that they cannot be se comniodated with the parishioners, and die Clergyman has to perform a separate service for them, he receives one guinea, and for each following separate service 15a. If the Clergyman visits the sick, and reads prayers to the convalescent, he is to receive .ss. per week, if the distance he has to go does mot exceed one mile ; 75. per week when it does not exceed three miles; and 10s. per week when the distance is greater. Saturday morning early, the 63d Regiment marched from Chat ham and arrived at Dartford, where they were quartered during that night, and marched early yesterday morning for the metropolis. They entered St. James's Park at one o'clock, and proceeded to Pimlico, Chelsea, and their neighbourhood, where they were quar tered during yesterday. This day they embarked on board By boats at Paddington, to go by the Grand Junction Canal, to pro ceed with all possible speed to Manchester.—The 2J Battalion of the Coldstream Regiment of Guards, commanded by [Aut.-Colonel CLITNII*O i maraud from Knightsbridge Barracks this day, to em bark at Paddington Canal, for Liverpool, on their route to quiet the, riotous proceedings of the disturbed districts in the vicinity of Manchester.

This case, in Which the construction of a deed of aettlement was • the point at issue, was further beard to day. Neat hearing post poned till Friday. Mr. Hammon was heard In Committee on the Johnston-Divorce Bill. It will be recollected, that t few years ago, the case of John- ston v. Lord Brudenell was before the Secondaries Court, judg ment having been allowed to go by default—to ascertain the guano- Lure of damages to which the plaintiff was entitled. It was au action of Crim. Con. The Lady where name was Halliday, the daughter of Admiral Tollemache (the name being changed on ac count of the accession of some property) was married to the plain tiff in 1817. In some years after, having occasion to absent himself for a short time. he left his wife under the protection of her father, where forming an acquaintance with Lord Brudenell, she suddenly disappeared from her father's house. At first suspicion was not excited, in the expectation that she would soon return, but after waiting some time, and inquiry being made. it was found she had gone to Paris, where she resided with a relative. Her father, Ad miral Tollemache immediately went to Paris, and finding how she was circumstanced with Lord Brudetiell, communicated it to the husband, who instituted an action, and recovered £l,OOO damages. Admiral Tullemache proved tbe - marriage of his daughter, and that her husband had always treated her with the greatest kindness and attention. A French servant girl, (who spoke English imperfectly,) proved the fact of the adultery. She lived with them in Paris and Ver sailles, where Mrs. Johnston and Lord Brudenell lived together as man and wife. They slept in the same bed. Mr. HARRIS3X. Counsel for the Bill, observed, that they had now proved the fact of the adultery. The LORD CHANCIILLffit-Why. I think something like it, Mr. H trrison—(A laugh). The Bill was then read a second time. A Bill to Dissolve the marriage of Lieutenant Daniel Thorndilte, who brought an action against the Hon. Mr. Harvey, son of h! Earl of Bristol, for Crim. Con. with his wi!'a in St. John's, New foundland, WAS (on petition) presented, read a first time, and order ed to be read a second time this day &might. The Lismore Divorce Bill went through a Committee. An cr. rangement has been made between the parties, independently of the Dill. by which s provision is secured to Lady Lisinure. PUBLIC MEETING TO RAISE A SUBSCRIPTION FOR THE RRLIF.F OF THE DISTRESSED MANUFACTURERS IN LANCASHIRE. In the coarse of Saturday, a Requisition was pre-ented to the Lord Mayor, to convene a Public Meeting to raise a Subscription for the Relief of the Poor Weavers of Blackburn, and the other suffering Poor of the Ma nufacturing classes in Lancashire. His Lordship at once gladly assented ; and, upon a consultation with the Requisitionists, fixed upon Thursday as the mist convenient day on which to convene it. In the course of the afternoon, however, from the accounts offi-ially received of the increased urgency of the distress, and the desperate condition to which the poor were reduced, his Lordship has been induced to po,tpone tile Court of Aldermen, which was announced for Tuesday, and has' determine) to hold the Meeting for the subset iption on that day. The Requisitionists were some of the most respectable men in the City, and a number of Noble men and Gentlemen From the West End of the town have communicated with his Lordship on the subject, and intimated their intention to make exertions propor tionate to the great urgency and increasityg extent of the suffering. The alteration of the time of meeting was determined upon by his Lordship at half•past ten o'clock at night. the accounts upon which the step was taken having been received very late in the evening.

The supplies during the past week have been very good of all kinds of Grain and of Flour. This morning there is a fair supply from the adjacent counties, and a good arrival of Oats from the more distant ports. The trade for Wheat is extremely dull, and for the best samples the prices are lower than last Monday ; other sorts have declined full 2s. per quarter. Barley is in so limited demand, particularly the Malting qualities, that it may be quoted is. to per quarter cheaper than this day se'rusight. Beans and Peas, not withstanding a short supply, are without demand, and prices are Nearly nominal. Oats meet a very heavy sale at a reduction of is. per quarter on the terms of last week.
