in. 1d he U -a tate age a more cheertag air.d animating prospect. He world trust that the political fever would very incn abate, and give new life and vigour to the body. He would endeavour to instil confidence into the minchof the people. He would believe that a great proportion of cur mechanics were yet sound at heart, and he trusted • that the day was not far distant, when the good sense and moral feelings of Saotsmen would resume their sway—when the spirit of Alienation which had been infused into the minds of the lower classes towards their superiors, who sympathized with their sufferings, and had endea voured to alleviate their distress, would be sub dued—when the horrors of civil warfare would be averted—when pikes would be converted into prun in:: hooks, and the beat of the drum would be fol lowed by the sound of the shuttle—when the bless i•ig, of our free and happy Constitution would be Mt and appreciated—when the dark shades of anar chy and infidelity would be dispersed—and when re ligion, loyalty, peace, and order, would again en lighten and cherish our native land.—This speed.), so creditable to the talents and feelings of Mr. Ewing, called forth the most enthusiastie cheering. Mr. risr.wv, in reply, to what had fallen from Mr. Oswald, stated, that his observations applied to the manufacturing population, not the agricu tura . If Mr. Oswald had enjoyed the same means of infor mation that he had done for the last four years, he would have agreed with him. Mr. Cnaatts STIRLING said, that they were met, be was sorry to say, not to nip a treasonable confe deracy ia the bud, but rather to face it in its full blown bloasont He considered that Radicalism was merely a cant term for Revolution: and that their object was to annihilate our holy religion, and tear down the beautiful fabric of our Constitution. It had been said, that intimidation might cause a num ber to leave their work; but, for his 'own part, he thought no hitimidation of any kind would ever cause a spirited honest man to do what was highly unlaw ful. lie said it was now become absolutely neces say that the :Plaster should be intimately acquainted with the principles and characters of his workers, and if any Gentleman should put his name to.these Resolujon:i, and not adhere to them in every point, even though he were his own brother, he would con sider him Its being upon a level with the worst of mi. dicala and would do every thing in his power to bring him to answer to the outraged laws of his country. The LORD PROVOST then congratulated them on the unanimity which had prevailed in the Meeting. He said, when, he first spoke he had said nothing on the number present, as the house was not then so full as he expected it to be, and the event had fully justi fied his utmost expectation, and though they had only had two days notice, the number and respect.. ability of the Meeting would shew that the Gentle men in Glasgow were warmly alive to the events which were passing before them. It was now full time to separate the innocent from the guilty, and the measure before the Meeting was one that com bined justice and mercy, and he trusted it would an sv-er that important purpose. The ft.:lowing Resolutions were then put and unanimously adopted: Par:,t.vrn-- 0 That is order to perform in the most effectual mann , .r th , ! imperative duty of assisting the Civil. Authorities, not merely in putting down, but in completely extinguishing, the seed:, of the present desperate and treasonable Confederacy, this Meeting thinks !t necessary to a 'Apt the following Declaration : " We, whose names are hereunto subscribed, Merchants and )Lnsfacturers in the City of Glasgow and neighbourhood, are resolved, by every means in our power, to assist in putting down the prtseut desperate and unprecedented resistance to all lawful authority, by withdrawing our employment and support from every person who may have lent, or who shall in future lend his aid to the purposes of the wicked and treasonable conspiracy detailed in an Address to the Inhabitants of Great Britain and Ireland,' lately published here. We therefore hereby declare our fixed purpose and deter tainatien to be, not to employ in future any person who may have already joined, or who shall hereafter join the promoters of this treasonable confederacy, who may have taken up arms, or lent aid and encouragement to it by his presence or countenance.

AFtAM AT cifiEENOCK: We itive already raid a great many accounts re specting this distressing affair before our Readers; and the importance of extracting tile real state of the case, must be our apology for requesting tha at tention of our Readers to an extract from one state ment more, which may be considered as that of the inhabitants of Greenack generally, having been drawn up by the Journal of the place (the Greenock Adver tiser),after weighing all the evidence they could pro cure, and giving whatthey " conscientiously believe to be the best of their information :" 3 1 num sac GREENOCK ADVERTISER or APRIL LI. " Curiosity was the sole exciting motive, with the old as well as young : and amongst the former, assembled in occa sional grouper, we remarked, that the general sentiment was re gret. that circumstances should have caused the necessity of transferring these prisoners to our jail, to the temporary inter ruption of the tranquillityof the town. Nothing like an expres sion of sympathy for the individuals, on account of the peculiar offences with which they were charged, occurred in our hearing; and we are tolerably confident that no such sympathy was either generally felt or uttered. The escort, with five prisoners in a cart, marched along Cathcart -street, to beat of drum, with clear ranks, and without the slightest annoyance. In the same order they delivered up their charge at the jet], and but a few minutes intervened, while they prepated to return homewards. Durieg this rime, some boys on the rising ground of Bank-street threw some small stones amongst the Volunteers, and, to repress this disposition, two or three pieces were discharged in the air. " Their march was recommenced, and in reposing Cathcart street, the crowd became less orderly, and some annoyance to the Volunteers was continued to be exercised as they went along. Occasionally some of them were observed to turn round, to in timidate the mob front pressing upon their ranks, and from the Post Office onwards to the Rae-end, stoses, &c. were occasion ally thrown. These, however, were few in number, and throWn chiefly by boys. Only one man is mentioned to us as having been active at an early Retied in annoying the military in this way, and who was the more easily distinguished, front his dress and occupatiot, that of a miller. After turning the corner of Cathcart-street, the throwing of stones increased, and the Vo lunteers had not gene many paces, when some of them, indignant at treatment which, while in the strict line of their duty, they had so little reason to anticipate, fired off their muskets among the crowd._ The number of shut s discharged at this critical junc ture was considerable. Two persons ft.ll wounded. " Stimulated by passion, and forgetting who were the ori ginal aggressors, others joined in the missile attack ; stones were thrown of larger size, and ia greater number. Much, we understand, was done by the Offizers of the Volunteers to restrain their men from the use of their arms; still, however, a number of,phote were fired. The met) did not retire from .the unequal conflict, though it was evident that the temper of the military was progressively rising. If some dropped off in the rear of the military, the crowd was, in a similar degree, augmented in the front by the inhabitants of the suburbs through which they were making their way. Many of these were mere spectators, and unconscious of their danger, and to this is to be attributed the circumstance that almost all the suf ferers in this nielencholy affray were unconcerned in its origin. We have heard of bat one person who fell, that was known to have acted offensively against the Volunteers. " It was not till the Volunteers got clear of Cartsdyke that the annoyance of the mob, or the retaliatory proceedings of the former ceased. From the eastern extremity of Cartsdyke, the Volunteers proceeded homeward without molestation. Many of them received severe contusions, but these we are net able to particulari s e. Considering the extraordinary nature of the occurrences above detailed, and the extent of the calamity, it was no small matter of surprise that in an inconceivably short time the peace of the town was comparatively restored. At six o'clock, however, the release of all the operative classes from laboer, increased the throng on the streets, and fears began to be entertained that they would meditate some - attack on Port- Glasgow ; but, in a short time, the current of their feelings was impelled in a different direction. "The liberation of the Radical prisoners from the Jail became the channel through which the) decided to veut their turbu lence. To this there isitrong ground for believing they were instigated by strangers, and, at all events, when assembled on the spot, it proved that they were to reap material assistance from such. The Magistrates, Justices of Peace, and a number of the respectable inhabitants were on the ground, intreating the crowd, by every possible argument, to withhold from their unwarrantable intentions. But to all these intreatits the answer was uniformly, that they were determined to persist. " They then proceeded to assail the outer gate of the pri son, which soon yielded to the great force applied. Against the door of the jail itself they next impelled their offen sive engines, still followed by the Magistrates, and others, who repeatedly risked their personal safety, and tome of whom were hurt in the attempt to avert the consequences. Al; was, however, vain ; the door was burst open, and no alternative re mained but to allow the mob to carry off the prisoners t that came from Paisley. None others were sought, or escaped. After s a few minutes spoilt in clamourous triumph, the prisoners were conveyed away by different ways, until they got clear of the town. None of them have since been found. " Unrestrained as the mob were by any military force, it was perhaps fortunate that the attack on the Jail occupied their at tention so exclusively till their purpose was gained; as immedi ately after some desperate individuals shouted, Away fbr Port- Glasgow; and now, as easily led to mischief as impervious to reason, a sort of recruiting was commenced in the streets, and, proceeding onwards, they pulled up the iron railing on the pre mises of different individuals in their route ; but learning that an express had been early sent to Port-Glasgow to put the inha bitants there on their guard, they desisted, and after some further parade and noise, dispersed. At ten o'clock the streets were as quiet as if nothing extraordinary had happened. . - a List of Killed and Wounded on the e►ening of Saturday, the sth instant, as collected from the several Medical Practitioners in the Town, this 11th April, 1620 : Names. dee.

RATIACT OF A PIMA= ',sierra 7110 g caesonicr, DATIPZ APRIL 8. " I know not in what manner to lay before your Readers .the lamentable scene which took place in the streets of this town yesterday afternoon. It originated at first in a report which was circulated early that morning, that a number of Paisley Radi sail were to be brought to our jail under a military escort. As the inhabitants of this place are not much acquainted with sights of this kind, it was naturally to be expected that immense crowds would assemble to witness their entry; and about half past four o'clock our ears were regaled with the music of a drum ! and fife, which announced the triumphant, and to all appearance pompous, entry of about 130 of the Port-Glasgow inhabitants, bearing arms, and called an " Armed Association," guarding a east with five Radicals. Some persons auongst the crowd be- 1 gan a hissing, which became pretty general, and, as far as I ob-1 served, a few mischievous boys threw stones; when, in order to strike terror amongst the crowd, they discharged some of their pieca,antl the contents of one struck a little boy without doing any material injury. After the prisoners were received by the Magis trates, and lodged in the places prepared for them. this Associa tion began their march homewards, amidst toed hissing, and now and then assailed by stones; and I am convinced that the hissing principally arose on account of their very awkward appearance; for the people of Greenock are a very loyal people, and not at all inclined, at any time, to trample under foot the laws of their country, or to offer indignities against any body Of-men doing their duty in the manner the law requites of them ' • and the stones which were thrown, have no doubt, would have been the same; had the same Association been act ing in a different cause ; and I think that the great error lay in not intrnsting the charge to military; but can I term these moo well disciplined *ho noted as If every one was Commander; one• Officer attempting to command, and anotherl contradicting it ? It would have been well had they continued se, and endeavoured toinhke the best of their way home ; bat they neither attempted to charge the crowd before them ,with the point of the bayonets, nor was the Riot Act read—they gave no proper warning of what they had in contemplation— and, without forming into a line, tbey.poured their shot amongst a crowd made up of the guilty, the innocent, and the unsuspect ing ; and they repeated this wanton outrage amongst the crowds which assembled from various places of the town, until they killed dead on the spot four persons, and wounded twenty, five of whom are since dead. I should have been happy to excuse their proceedings; but, in justice to my own feelings and those of the priucipal part of the inhabitants, I cannot. It is true, the crowd should not have insulted them; but who would not bear the greatest insult before they would attempt to kill any man? Their lives were not in danger at the time: no doubt, unite of the stones injured some, and irritated others; but their minds should have been prepared for all this, and the utmost extremity alone should have compelled them to fire. I need not say, that the inhabitants were alarmed—indeed, they would not believe their eyes at first, when they saw their townsmen carried in all directions towards the Medical Gentlemen, whose prompt at tention cannot be too highly praised. After this bustle and I alarm had subsided, after the dead had been carri^d to their re lations, and the wounded to the hoapitarand their frienck, a cheer in midst of the square by a few brought many together, and it ap peared they knew not what they would ha'. • wi4hed. The Magis trates went into their centre, and insisted on their being peaceable; but it appeared they had no very bad inteotiona, and we must make some excuse for their exasperated feelings, which prompted them to the rash act of breaking open the prison, which they-ac complished in a short time, and liberated the live Radicals,whose names I could not learn. The crowd examined them narrowly before they permitted them to escape, lest they by mistake should have liberated any other prisoners, which was not their wish : they then allowed them to shift for themselves. Shortly after this, a considerable crowd assembled, and z piper played at their head through the town ior about au hour and a half. L seems they had at first an intention of attacking Port-Glasgow; but, for the honour of my townsmen, I am happy to say it was not carried into effect; and the Magistrates, nut knowing nhat might happen, used the wile precaution of sending for forces, whose services were not required, for about eleven o'clock all had dispersed, and there was as much regularity in the streets as if the week had closed with its usual quietness and good order. " I learn this melancholy detail of facts with feelings more of sorrow than of anger, satisfied, in my own conscienee„sth it what I have now stated is correct, according to my own feelings and I trust that, through the medium of your Paper, the world may know, that no treason or conspiracy lay at the bottom of all this, but that the imprudence of a few who were in the crowd, and the unjustifiable rashnesi of the armed, were the only means which disturbed for a few hours the peace of our streets, which, at the present moment, exhibit all the simplicity and good order which are characteristics of a Scottish Sabbath." About sixty carronades, and a considerable quan tity of ammunition, were brought down from Car ron, and landed at Leith, on Thursday se'nnight, and safely lodged in Leith Fort. The wives and other relativ& of the State Prison ers now confined in Newgate, having yesterday morning been refused admission by Mr. liinows, the keeper, to see them, they applied to Lord Sit:mourn for orders to be admitted every evening during the trials ; after waiting some time in 'the lobby of the Home Department, orders were granted to Mrs. This tlewood, Mrs. Wilson, and two others, and they saw their husbands yesterday evening. The Seventh Anniversary Meeting of the West minster Auxiliary Bible Society, comprising the . Ladies' Association, was held yesterday at the King's Concert Room ' Haymarket, the Rev. Dr. RANDOLPH in the Chair. The room was nearly filled by a res pectable assemblage of both sexes. The Rev. gr. Winne read the Report, which was highly interest ing. It stated, that during the last year, 1666 Bibles, and 555 Testaments, had been distributed, making a total, since the formation of the Society in 1814, of 20,677 copies. Mr. WILBERFORCE, the Rev. Dr. STEINKOFFT, MT. BUTTERWORTH, and other eminent Gentlemen addressed the Meeting at consi derable length, in support of the Society. A liberal collection was made. Officers were then appointed for the ensuing year, and the Meeting adjourned. The Regal Crowns were lately taken down to Brightop for his MAJESTIC'S inspection, on account of the change which it is essential to make in the decorations. Our Readers are aware that the fleur de-lys is no longer applicable as an emblem of pre tence, since the words " of France" are omitted in the style and title of the King of the United King dom.

He trotted away in flue style, stretching towards Daihum Park, the seat of Sir JAMES Armace, and, atter having pass e d avi r a track of country of at least twenty miles, they took him in a small wood, having run him above an hour and a half without one single check, and the horses wcfe kept at tbiee parts speed all the time. TwJltJrrer were and many others kfsfor Arad upon the field. Unfortunately the hounds killed the stag before he could be pre!.-reed, owing to the thick grove where he h: - .d taken shelter, and after such an extraordinary chace for so small a pack of harriers. The hunters (those at least who were able to g_•t home) retired to the Rutland Gems Inn, where they ln.d a sumptuous dinner, and, after making very merry till a late hour, they retired, shouting—" Success to the hounds, and long health and happiness to their noble master!" who, to do Wirt credit, rode most gallantly the whole day, never once losing sit of his excellent hounds.
