The Reader will learn with satisfaction, that the diabolical plot of Thistlewood had no accomplicesin the country. The wretched Radicals have enough to answer for in the way of folly, without being charge.' with participation in so horrid an Attempt. -Glasgow Chronicle. GLASGOW, MARCH On Monday last, when a crowd of persons sur rounded our jail, a letter was thrown from the win dow of a room occupied by some of the twenty-seven Delegates, calling upon the populace to rise and li berate them. The letter was picked up by one of the sentinels, *nd delivered to his Officer. In addi tion to a strong detachment of Infantry, constantly on duty in the guard-house of the jail, a mounted Hussar rides round the prison, which has had the good effect of preventing the crowd from approach ing, and of preserying order round it and the public olii‘e3 there. Wednesday - , John *At, carter at Tollcross, was sentenced by the Justices of the Peace to confine ment in Bridewell, and ordained to find security to keep the peace, for obstructing the constables in the execution of a warrant, giving most abusive language to a Magistrate, and exciting the persons collected on the occasion to acts of violence. We are informed, that on this, as on several occa -SHIS i.uety, the military were much insulted, and thel M.lgl,trate in attendance was under the necessity of] Ci;Fcrsing the mob by means of the Cavalry. We c ,:irekst sufficiently reprobate the folly and danger of suz'a conduct. and which, if persisted in, must ulti mately lead to very fatal consequences. Yeacrday morning three of the Radical'pelegates, se: on Tuesday -se'nnight, who belong to Paisley, ws•:‘ ofithither in a coach. What further legal L.veAigation their particular case may require will pcbahiy take place there. I statement in our last, that the individuals lately apprehended in Glasgow were, on Sunday, brought here (says an Edinburgh Paper) under an escort of Hussars, is incorrect. The mistake ori ginated is the circumstance of two coaches having .trrivei from Glasgow, containing a number of per ruts summoned as witnesses to appear here on the .I.ary trial which took place on Monday last. Several Hussars having passed at the time, the rumour was iannerliate4 spread. and (Alt:Lifted credit, that they v: ere escorting the Radical Delegates from Glasgow. The Glasgow Yeomanry Cavalry were on duty yesterday. Billets were also taken for the Dumbar t.l Yeomen, who arrived about twelve o'clock. They are to parade to-day at twelve o'clock, and they will probab.y return home to-morrow. Yesterita , the corps -of Glasgow Sharpshooters v.-ere reviewed in the Green. They appeared in ex • cellent spirits, and went through their evolutions in a masterly manner, considering the short time since their enrolment. They hale all received notice to hold themselves in readiness at a few minutes warn ing. The Yeomanry Cavalry were to do duty at R - utherglen yesterday; it was however postponed till Monday. However pleasing such proofs of loyalty must be, it is hoped that the return of the deluded few to reason and duty, will render more powerful demonstrations unnecessary. (room A COEIMPONDENT4 41 It is well known that some of the Radical leaders have been sedulously labouring to induce their de luded adherents to strike, from the Ist of March, for a restitution of what they call their political rights. This, like all their other schemes, has failed. Being in the country yesterday, I observed that the work men in shops, sheds, and quarries were as busy as usual ; but the increased demand for labour which has occurred in the course of the Spring, and the progress of common sense, have so effectually thinned the rank; of the Radidals, that all who yet remain attached to their principles may have struck, and the fact be hardly known beyond their own loom-stead. Great praise is due to our Magistrates for the pre cautionary measures they took to preserve the peace of this City." EDINBURGH, MARCH, 2. A variety of gloomy reports respecting the unquiet sci:it of the tradespeople of Glasgow, have been current here these some days, and a general turn-out vas said to be in contemplation as yesterday. We a:e glad to find, by letters and papers received this r,,ariling, that all remains in tranquillity. DEWSBURY. We have a letter from one of the principal Manu facturers of this place, who states that the prompt and decisive measures of Mr. STOCKS, have been at. tended with the happiest effects ; " That the Union appears to be completely dissolved, and that great numbers of its members have come forward to ac cept of work on the terms offered by the Masters, and that tranquillity is perfectly restored." After stating the distress which had been experienced by the fami lies of the Union men, the letter goes on to say— " The situation of the workmen, however, is not likely to be much improved, at leas: generally, for it is ab solutely impossible for all to obtain employment -I:ay, perhaps, one-tenth of them cannot do it for se veral months at any rate.—This neighbourhood never a: any previous time was so much distressed for want of work, and there is no prospect of improvement." William &Aro, a pensioner from the Portsmouth division of Royal Marines, was apprehended on the '2 sth ult. for using seditious language at the King's, Read public-house, in Lichfield-street, Birmingham. MANCHESTER, MA acu 2.-There appears, from t7:e most unquestionable authority, to be not less than ? witnesses subpoenaed, on the part -of the Crown, 1,7 rom Manchester and its neighbourhood) in the case ri Hunt and others. The Arroutemr GeNERAL will Le at York, so says Mr. PEARSON, who ariived here ce the 29th of February. Mr. Hunt is also expected here in a day or two. Mr. Knight is hailed for the snidemeanour. He need not be tried with Mr. Hunt, milers at his option, bail for his appearance at Yerk not having been perfected, in consequence of his Ismonment, on a charge of high treason, at the time the writ of certiorari was granted for the removal of Cl* trial to York. • IQ ATAPAL INPEUrbtNa.

A number of bales of cotton, bags, and casks, were seen floating in the s::a. to the Eastward yesterday, and a considerable quantity of wreck. THE CONSPIRATORS. rhistlewood continues to evince, in his present place of confinement, the same coolness and indif ference that he has uniformly manifested since his ' appi ekension. He and his fellow-prisoners seem per fectly contented in their new situation. ANOVItte Willbe recollected, that on the day but one succeeding the night of the arrest of the conspirators in Cato-street, Perry, one of the con ductors of patrole, received information that a gun, a sword, and pistol, had been seen by some boys, whilst playing near the house of a man of the name, of, George, close to the New-road, in a sort of hovel, or outhouse. The boys communicated the circumstance to old George, and he immediately nailed up the hovel to prevent access, as well as to disguise the arms. Perry lost no time in proceeding to the spot with his party ; he broke open the hovel, and took possession of the arms, as well as some hall-cartridges which he found with them. He carried the whole to Bow -street, and subsequent circumstances led to a suspicion that young George had been connected with the conspirators. An inquiry was made for hiM, but he had absconded. From that time the Officers have been on the alert in pursuit of him, and last night Ruthven, and some of his brother Officers, traced him to the Dundee Arms, Wapping, from whence be was about to embark on board a Gravesend boat. He was immediately secured, and conveyed in a coach to St. Paul's Watch-house, Covent-garden. In consequence of information being given at Marl borough.street Office, on Saturday last, Valentine, an Officer, was dispatched to search two rooms in Molyneux-street, near Cato-street, which were hired by Firth, the cow-keeper, now in custody, and which have since been closely locked up, being only occa sionally visited. The particular result of th. 2 search is not known, but it was deemed of sufficient import ance to lay it before the Secretary of State, as several suspicious implements, together with papers, were seized, which tended to throw some light on the mysterious intentions of the conspirators. A blacksmith, in the neighbourhood of Gray's Inn lane, was arrested yesterday, charged with being the manufacturer of the pikes of the conspirators. He was conveyed to Tuthill-fields Prison, previous to examination. Ings, one of the conspirators, was formerly a butcher in the King's slaughter-house at Portsmouth. He was afterwards a guard to one of the coaches. His family now live in the neighbourhood of Portsmouth. The CROWN SOL lc' roft has given notice to Keikhi, and the other persons committed to Lancaster Castle in December last, for High Treason, that it is not the intention of Government to prosecute them on that charge. A duel took place in the Phoenix Park, Dublin, on Monday last, between Mr. Grissom, one of the young Officers of the unfortunate expedition to South Ame rica, and Coionel LvsTrn, of D'EvntEux's Legion. The parties discharged four pistols each, when the seconds refused any longer to act, and the principals quitted the ground without a reconciliation beiqg effected. Colonel LysTER was slightly grazed by three of the balls. TERRIFIC PLEASANTRY.—An occurrence, calcu lated to give rise to painful reflections, which took place a short time since in Berlin, is much spoken of in all parts of Germany. During the late Carnival, a masked ball was given in the Theatre of Berlin. Four masks entered, dressed in black, and bearing a coffin. This strange circumstance produced a very ' unpleasant sensation, but it soon ceased to excite any attention. The four men deposited the coffin in a 1 1 corner of the room, and mixing in the crowd, soon disappeared. On the following morning, the coffin was discovered under some black cloth, ar o d on open ing it, there appeared a very correct likeness mo delled in wax, of an august Person dear to Prussia. The figure was pierced with several stabs of a po . niard. A bloody dagger was deposited in the coffin. The authors of this terrific pleasantry have not as• yet I been discotered.—Paris Paper. AitMV.

Lord MILTON and Mr: STUART WORTLEY will walk over the course, without a com petitor.—Mr. STUART WORTLEY, in the course of his canvass, at Leeds, on Saturday, was assailed in the most scandalous manner, with kissings and hootings, is his passage through the streets of that town ; and, had not a number of personal friends rallied round him, he would more than orce have received bodily injury. There was an incessant cry among the mul titude—" Down with him ;" " Are you nbt a tool of Ministers?" Who supported the Manchester mur derers?" and, in fact, every opprobrious epithtt was profusely lavished upon him, Sir C. BURRELL, it is said, has declined a Contest for Bramber.

THEATRES:—The Hebrew, at Droty-tang, and Ivanhoe, at Covent-Gatden, were repeated on Satur• day evening with encreased success, At the latter Theatre the Piece is greatly improved by making Ivanhoe the son of Cedric, instead of Richard Lion- Heart. Both Houses were well attended, Within these feW nights, a number of respectable Gentlemen have been robbed at Covent-Garden, and Drury-Lane Theatres, and also at the EnglisH Opera House, in the Strand. One of the gang of pickpockets has been committed to Newgate for trial, and another, of the name of Joseph Barnett, conwnit• ted for further examination. Four more of the Italian boys, who infest the streets with white mice, squirrels, monkeys, and dancing dolls, were on Saturday committed from HattonL Garden Office to the House of Correction for ten days. Lord SIDMOUTII has been requested to send them out of the country, under the Alien Act. A most extraordinary circumstance occurred a fey/ days since. On Christmas eve, the son of Mr. SIMP soN, of Sweetinis-alley, who was going out as Chief Mate to an Indianian, landed, with six others, at Portsmouth, to spend the day ; on their return in the evening, the boat was upset, and they all perished. The body of Mr. SIMPSON was washed on shore on Sunday se'nnight, after being ten weeks and two days in the water. A quantity of dollars, his watch, chain, and seals, were all found upon him ; but the face was so mutilated, that his features could not be recog , nixed. The body was brought to London last week, and on Sunday interred in Hackney Church-yard.
