w tl at Gentleman's bleach-works at Norwich. Indeed tt.e proprietors of large works are pretty generally putting their premises in a state of defence. Ashton's factory at Hyde has been strongly fortified, and port-ho!es have been made through the walls for the purpose of discharging musketry. The people in the village, who are principally workmen of Mr. Asloon, are generally arming themselves with pikes. This factory contains five or six hundred power. looms, and they actually manufacture a piece of cotton every minute throughout the day. Sidebotham's fac tory, at tie same place, is also placed In a state of defence. At Ashton-under-Lyne the power loom fac tories are tit- fended by - several pieces of ordnance. The factory belonging to Clarke and Son, at Holt Town, near Manchester, is fortified by recentlperected walls, which have loop-holes for the discharge of musketry. The factories adjoining Clarkes' factory have bills posted on the walls, with these we,rds." Ple power loons ken." This morning I passed through the streets here, prin cipally inhabited by the weavers. It is really a most pitiable and heart-rending sight to behold the state of extreme wretchedness to which the poor creatures are reduced. - They - have actually the appearance of ghosts t or the anatrmies of men, rather than of men themselves. And no wonder; a good weaver 414011 employ, and there are tens of thousands that are not half emp!oyed, cannot get more than the price of one full meal a-day for himself alone. He must have a flinty heart indeed, that can look at their pale and emaciated faces, and bear their simple tales of woe, without pity. " We've bad no bread for.two days," said one of them to nie. 44 My children are crying for food. I cannot go near them. They will drive me to bitter madness. What are the bayonets of soldiers to a man starved and dis tracted as lam r There is now no political feeling among the lower classes, but there is a much more dan gerous feeling, a feeling of utter desperation. A great deal has been done, and is doing in the way of subscription for the relief of the people in Manchester. But the misfortune is, that many of the shopkeepers are almost as badly ff as the weavers themselves. The conduct 01 the Rev. Mr. Johnson, Curate of St. George's Church, is spoken of by all with the greatest appro bation. This Reverend Gentleman is employed from morning till night in visiting the houses of the poor, to whom he gives according to their wants, and without regard to their politits or religion. I have just beard that an attack was made urxi Mr. William Wood's factory at Wigan, last night, but that the rioters were dis persed by the military without effecting any mischief beyond break ing a few windows. The foreman of Mr. nonfat, the builder, is in custody, on a charge of setting fire to his master's premises. The 'Manchester Theatre is ordered to be closed every night this week, except Friday, when a Play is to be performed for the benefit of the poor. .About three o'tlock yesterday, an alarm was brought to Oldham that another assemblage of persons had taken place upon Tandle Hill ; and that they had again moved towards the factory at Shaw. The Oldham Yeomanry immediately turned out, and marched to Shaw; but, on their arrival there, they learned that the rioters had passed Sh ew, and proceeded towards Gr, en sues Moor, where, together with many other persons, they had assembled round the factor y of Messrs. Collinge and Lancaihire, but did not venture to make any attack . upon it; knowing, probably, that the proprietors had armed their workpeople. On the arrival of the Yeomanry, the Rev. John Holme, who nerompanied them, read the Riut Act, and the inch gradually dis persed, Without baying done any mischief. J believe that all the mills containing power looms, la the neigh bonsisood of Oldham, ate DOW put in a state a defence. Six o'CLoCK.—There was an assemblage of people in St. George's Fields this afternoon. Two men made speeches with which the people seemed by no means to agree. One of them said, tb2t. if the people were all like him, be would either get a living, or die and not need it. The meeting adjourned till seven o'clock this evening. The Cheshire cavalry were dismissed this afternoon, and they have all returned to their homes. The special constables have been all ordered out. Two power looms were broken last night, about ten o'clock, at Barrowford, :leer Coin . . The looms were the property of Mr. Grinuhaw. This is the first instance in which any anent has been made to destroy looms In the night. Manenarposa, TUSIDAT gesana, tia ea.= Two or three looms *ere broken last night at Messrs. Grimshaw and Bracewell's, of Barrowford, near Colne ; sod at Bradford yesterday, the seat of the celebrated turn-out, there was a procession of work people, and some symptoms of excitation were observable. No"rint, • however, took place, and as ere now an addition to the military force of the district has arrived, I hope there will be none. This morning it was stated, that manuscript notices for a meeting in St. George's fit Ids, in this town, to be held at halt-past three this afternoon, had made their appearance, and accordingly the police were on the alert. The whole affair, however, was as insignificant and fiat as possible. Scarcely two hundred people attended, and of these the larger part appeared to be mere spettatOrs. Two persons addressed them, and one talked a little sedition, but it did not take well, and was altogether beneath notice. Five dragoons came in sight, on which the larger portion of the assembly took to their heels; one fellow called out " Stone them,' on which a Gentleman seized his arm, and asked what he meant by calling on them to stone the soldiers. He ingeniously replied, it was not the soldiers, but the men who were running away from the meeting that he wished to be stoned. There is to-day a de cidedly better feeling, as regards business, both in goods and yarns. The number of buyers in the market is great, and a general feeling prevails that there is no probability of any further decline in prices. Managed, TOMMY NAIINT. MAT g. I have just spoken with a Gentleman in the neighbourhood of Wigan, who states that a desperate attack was made last night by a vast amenablago of persons an Wood'ilactory, at that place, which contains nearly ISO power looms. The mob broke the windows, and proceeded to further violence, but were finally beaten off about toss o'clock.—ln the neighbourhood of Burnley several riots took pines in the coarse of yesterday and last night ; and four power looms weft destroyed at Barrowford, two at Grimahaw's mills, aid the others at the factory of Mr. Bolton. 'II I Last Vrlday and Saturday the streets were crowded with people ailing charity, who really stood in need of it; the pickpockets took the advantage oldie taste, and stepped people, and robbed them of every th ing. had. Sunday and yesterday we were perfectly quiet. me weavers are destroying the power looms in the neigh bourhood. /keen were killed last week, and four more have since died of their wounds. The town is fast filling with military. These disturbances km arisen entirely from want of food, not from any ratical (*slimy. - The accession of force already here appears sufficient for our gm tection ; and more troops are daily arriving to remove the fears of the most timid. In short, every possible exertion has been made by Govenunent to afford protection to this very important district. „ The Military have conducted thenuselvs• with a temper and for mer:me which Wisps the highest credit en iheuesehree• They have often been shamefully ?eked and abused, and have endured insult with exemplary forbearance, having the means of wreaking an instant and terrible revenge. • limbs TIC SLACKS/SW MAIL 01 71ISTSIgalf- A Coroners Inquest so* upon the boffins of wiz of chef mons who " ere en Fridef, Saturday, and again yesterday.

We basest to be compel/ell to say, that the turbulence is far more extended than we conceived, and as violent as the condition of a starving people can make it. Sedition and disloyalty have nothing to do with the present Hots, unless we call it the sedition of the belly. The people are absolutely in want of the necessaries of life to support their exigence, and their children are famishing before their eyes. Another man has died of his wounds • and a youth, living at Oxbeigh, Tottington Higher End, has been dis covered wounded in the abdomen. Seven individuals have now died in that neighbourbned.—When the Riflemen first fired upon the mob they were concealed behind a garden liedge,and were there fore enabled to take aim with the greatest deliberation. Whilst they were hid there, and when they had discharged their rifles, a working man assaulted them with stones, and walked deliberately away ; this be did repeatedly after the soldiers had fired, and re treated, snapping his fingers in their face.

We understand that a large proportion of die power loom factories, in this town and its inunediate neighbourhood, are already well provided with Are arms, and other formidable weapons of defence, furnished from the Government stores, at the request of the autho rities here, who have strenuously u►ged the propriety of every owner of such establishments defending his property to the utmost. PRIVATE LETTER, - - " Bumming i MAY 1. " Our Committee have often discussed the subject of employing the poor, but cannot fit on any plan likely to answer for such a large number of able-bodied men and boys as might be selected out of fourteen thousand individuals. Our workhouse is crowded to excess. It is calculated to accommodate about five hundred, and now there are more than seven hundred. The overseers find great MI - Cony in getting employment for this number: many of them are employed in repairing the roads !belonging to the township. " The town is very quiet. No attack has yet been made on Low Moor, but Messrs. Garnett and Horsetail have fortified their works, and riflemen sleep in the mills." The following Address, by the Rev. W. JOHNSON, A.M. to the Inhabitants of the neighbourhood o f Si, George's Free Church, Manchester, was published on Saturday, and was very attentively read by the Work ing Classes : Natosmouas--I have been amongst you many years. Have you found me your enemy or your friend 1 If I have been your friend and faithful adviser, ready to comfort you in sickness, and to assist and relieve you as far as I have bad the power, I think you will hear what I have to say, and if my advice is good you will follow it. I know your distress, and hard is the heart that does not pity it. I know. too, that till Thursday last you bore it with such patience and peaceable demeanour as obtained you the good will of the whole town. On that day, before any of this disturbance broke out, a numerous Meeting at the Police-race resolved to begin a new subscription for your relief, and upon a much more extended scale than the last. To this your Gracious Sovereign added, out of his privy purse, a munificent gift of One Thousand Pounds. Had your peaceable conduct continued, the fund raised would by this time, I am persuaded, have amounted to five dines that sum; but sorry am I to say, that some of you have suffered yourselves to be led away by the worthless and the idle, and have committed ex ' mews which Dotting can excuse. Of the well-disposed I know there are many, very many amongst you, if they would but As'', themselves like men—but they seem afraid of doing their duty, and look on, almost with unconcern, whilst the work of plunder and destruction is going forward. And to what can ibis lead, but ro make the matter worse? If the dealers ice provisions are t have them taken away without being paid for, who do you think will bring any. provisions to Manchester? and then, what will become of you ? If travellers and others are to be plundered as they come into the town, who do you think will trust themselves in Manchester to boy you: goods? and then whit will become of the trade you have kit, or how can you get more to set your looms to work again? Does not this skew, that those who ate committing these depredations are the greatest ene mies to the poor ? And what good can arise from the destruction of factories ? The kiss you know will not fall open the owners' of them • the whole neighbourhood will have to pay for the damage you do ; so that the principal effect will be, that you depthe those , who are employed in them of the little work. hey, have, and add to the distress that surrounds you. Do. then, let me persuade you to be peaceable. On many occa sions you have listened to me with attention, and received me with kindness which I shall never - forget. I think you will believe my advice is intended for your good, and will be disposed to follow it. Let me then recommend you, and especially such as have young people under their control, to keep yourselves and your families, as much as posuible at home, andvonsequently out of danger. Do not join or follow any mob, nut even from curiosity, for you will sad to their number.. and to their apparent strength. Refrain front giving them encouragement by shouts or by cheers ; and persuade, as much as you can. those with whom you have any influence, to join you in assisting the Cavil Power when called upon. Some stop. it is true. has been put to the subscription for your relief; but the moment the present disturbances are appeased, it will be renewed, I have no doubt. with alacrity—so that a much greater number of food tickets may be distributed, and great care will be taken that those who most want them shall have them. I know the disposition of the Town's Miters is to do all they can for you ; but you must first be peaceable ; for while riot and plunder prevail, yon leave them no time to consider how they can best serve you.--Ile peaceable. then, I entreat you, be peaceable. WILLIAM JOHNSON, A. M. Curate of St. Oeorge's Free Church. EQUITABLE LOAN BANK. At a Meeting held on Monday, Dr. LUSIIIVOTON one of the Vice Presidents, in the Chair, Mr. Witcs produced and read tt'e desired Report. It recapitulated the circumstances under which the Company had originated, and denied that it could be truly imputed to the Company that it was instituted for the benefit of any Solicitor, Secretary, or otber indivi dual. It had received the sanction of the most eminent persons in the Mettopolis for their rank and philosophy. Mr. Shadwell, who had been consulted. thought the original holders of Shares were entitled to come in and sign the Deed, but were not entitled to any share in the proceeds until they had signed; 30.0001. had been raised by deposits upon Shares; of this sum, 12,0001. had been paid for the College of Physicians, 4,0001. for repairs, and 14,0001. had been applied in conducting the affairs of the Company. The outstanding debts were 3,0001. The sum due for the Solicitor's bill was 5,1791. (Of this Mr. Wilks declared that he had ex pended no less than 3,0004 cash out of his own pocket in fees to Counsel), ss hich sum had been pai.l. The larger sum was expended in blazing up witnesses from Furious parts of the country.,-.iii advertisements, and Other modes of meeting the opposition which they trocountered in Parliament. When all demands were paid, the Directors anticipated from the sale of the Col lege of Physicians, a sum of 8,5004 would remain to be divided amongst the Proprietors, This, if it were divided to each who bad paid a deposit, would produce about Bs. per Share; and if the affairs shoulJ be wound up as favourably as was expected, and the division was confined to those who had at present signed the Deed, a dividend of 12s. or 15s. in the pound would be made. A great change had taken place in the circumstances of the country since the icheme- had first been brought I forward, and it would be difficult to obtain the requisite , capital. The Report, therefore, recommended that the Company should be. dissolved, and that, after all de minds were paid, they should eivide • the residue a mongst those who were legally entitl-ci. After much•dmaltery esiversetioe, a moieties was some to t h at a ll h o ld ers of scrip fusspot and certificates whir him flouted, or may memo be deed, should be lidded to reeeive any dividend that may &rib.. After mutual prefeseioas, the Idestiag thus terminated. REPRESENTATION 'co roc CITY ow LONDON. Yesterday a Meeths of the friends of Alderman Thompson was held at the London Tavern, to consider the best means of securing his return to Parliament. The large room was crowded by persons connec:ed with the shipping and commercial interests of the City. At a little after one o'clock, the worthy Alderman, accom ponied by Mr. Attwood, Sir C. Price, Sir C. Forbes, Mr. Plummer, M.P. Mr. Borradiile, and it numerous _ _ body of friends, entered the room. Alderman Sir R. CARR OLIN Waif called to the Chair. The CHAIRMAN stated, that he attended this Meeting not only in consequence of the respect and friendship which he entertained for Alderman Tfu.mpson,„ with whom he had been long intimately acquAinted, but from the anxiety which he felt for the preservation of the honour and dignity of the City of London. He WAS anxious that they should have a representative who would do honour to them, and that therefore he should be a Gentleman of education, fortune, and independeace —(Cheers).—He should be a Gentleman of education, because much of the business which came before the House rendered it not merely desirable, but necessary —( Hear).—He should be a Gentleman- of• fortune, be• cause that would prevent his being biassed by many circumstances which it was unnecessary to detail. That he should be independent, not merely in fortune, but in mind. all would ackn•iwledge, for he cold not Cher wise act well as a legislator—(Near).—He (Sir it. C Glyn) was desirous of a representative who would sup port a liberal administration as far as he could, and who would be so far independent as to act with respect to a measure, without regarding whether it originated froth the Opposition, or what were entitled the Treasury benches—(Lbeers).—lt was by the influence of such minds that this country had attained its present rank and power. The worthy Chairman then said, that the conduct of Mr. - Alderman Tnompson hail been before them ; he had been tried in Parliament—lf/ear, hear) — He had at all times supported the commercial interests of the City of London, and those of the nation at large. His services in behalf of the shipping interests of the country would be considerable, at the same time he would not forget the manufacturing interests, and those to whom they owed much —(Great). Mr. Alderman Locos, in proposing a resolution ex pressive of the opinion of the Meeting, that it was necessary to have, a person intimately connected with its commercial . interests, said, that the knowledge of hie friend (Alderman Thompson) arose from his having iseen, as perhaps all , knew, long deeply interested in them. lie expressed his conviction that they could not do better than appoint his friend as the guardian of their interests in the House of Commons —(Cheers). Mr. T. A. CURTI* seconded the motion, and said, that if ever there was a time io which they should choose a representative who was intimately acquainted with the commercial interests of the country, it was the present —(Heat).—He thought they were fortunate. in their choice, and be saw, in the numbers and respecta bility of the present Meeting, assurances of their sue.: cest, and that they should place him where alone his friends would bo content 'to see him, at the head of the poll—( Cheers). The resolution, which also expressed the opltilon of the meeting In favour of Alderman-Thqnpson was carried unanimously. s.. Mr. Alderman Tildes:soy then rose. He said, that his feelings quite overcame his porker of expressing the gratitOlehe felt for the honour done him by the on. metoui and ardent' frlencriwhom he saw around' him.' When he Ticeived the support of so many distinguished members of the shipping and trading interests of the metropotii . , as well as so many friends who were asso ciated with him in the management of the affairs of the Corporation, heconld not entertain a doubt of attaining the honourable post to Which their partiality induced him to aspire. The qualifications which a representative of this City in Parliament ought to possess were great and multifarious, such as were rarely found concentrated in one indivithrel. He felt that he possessed brit a small portion of them. He way most gratified that he had derived this support froin a review taken of his public conduct for the last six years, and not from any pro fessions. Whenever any question had arisen respecting 'the commercial !merest' of the country, he had been at all times ready . .to Vfpresi an opinion on the subject; and he had felt himself the more competent to do so from the commercial transactions and businessin which he had been early engaged—(Hear, hear).—He would advert brit to one subject more. There were five can didates, and one of them must be disappoined. He would never seek to rise .-or to advance by depressing the just claims or merits of another. Upon this princi plebe would act; and he was sure that in so doing it would be acting only in conformity to the feeling and determination of all his friends—(Loud cheers). Mr. M. Arrwooa, M.P. said, he was sure that the Meeting would not confine theniselvea to the barren expression of their opinion that the worthy Alderman was eligible, and he moved a resolution pledging the Meeting individually to support him, and to use every exertion to secure his election. Mr. Attwood declared that he had had an opportunity of acting with his friend, end of witnessing his talents, which highly qualified him fur the .situati. n inwhict:they now sought to place him. The representation of the City- could not be en tirusted into better hands—(Cheers).—lt was desirable to place him high on the poll, for tht . greater rank he derived from that cit cumstance, the more weight would he carry with him into the House. Ills motion was seconded by Alderman &NOM, and carried estanisuously. Mr. &mu HALL, said, it had been expressed abroad, that the Committee of their worthy friend, of which he (Mr. Hall) was the Chairmin, was tardy in coming for. ward. Now he begged to explain the feelings in which this delay originated. The worthy Alderman believed `that great exertions would be requisite, and he was unwilling to give labour to his friends any longer than was necessary ; but 28 out of 29 of the Committee would next Monday be in action, and when he informed them that they consisted - of 600 of the most staunch, jealous, and respectable men in the City, success was certain, They must, however, hive is a long pull, a *Twig pall, and a pull altogether."—(Cheers). %mks were voted to the Chairman,when the Meeting separated. • . s ROIAL DISPENSARY FOR DISEASES 07 TUX EAR.—.

INDEkENIANT DllOl9ll/141ES soli /1 1 0 4 ; 10 X- S sturday laic a meeting of Noblemen ani Geatienien was held at the rooms of the Charitable Institution, Sackville-street, to consider of the establishment of Independent Dispensaries for the Pon,, on the plan of one introduced at Southam, inVarwicksbire, by Mr. 11. L. Smith. There were present, Lord Althorp (io the Chair), Lird Suffield, L rd Nugent, D. S. Dugdale, Esq. M P. F. Lawley, E q. M.P. C. Harwood, Eq. Dr. Chandler, Dr. Duncan, stc. Mr SmITIt explained hii plsy at great length to the Meeting, and in a manner which seemed to give general satisfaction. He had inquired, he said, anxiously into the cat) +es that have at different times reduced so many of the industrious poor, even in the most prosperous periods, to a state of pauperism, and he had found that, in a great majority of instances, it originated in some sudden illness of the individuals themselves or their families, t h e expenses of which they were onprepar.d•to defray, and by which they hive been gradually stripped of all th-y possessed, iavnlved in debt, and thrown 4 last on the workhouse. By the plait of mutual in surance, which he had introduced at Southam, mecha nics, labourers, and sery :nts (of both sexes) might, by a contribution of ls. 41. annually, or a sick penny weekly,, secure to themselves the- best medical ; and surgical Aid in. cases of sickness or accident ; wad all chance of their being thereby involv.d in embarrass ment and ruin be averted. Mr. LAMM', M.P. expressed himself in warm terms In favour of the plan. Dr. CHANDLII/J4 Rector of Southern, bore testimony to its ellitacy, in aefer'es it had been carried into operation at that place.. Lord SUPIPIELD and Lord ALTHORP promised that it shoal 4 have a fair trial in the districts where they reside. A desultory conversation then ensued as to the various details of the plan ; after which a series of resolutions, recommendatory of the plan, were put and unanimously asreed to. THE ARMY.
