RIOTS AT ROCHDALE. PROM THE MANCHESTER ADVERTIIIII, MAT 8.• During the whole of Thursday and yesterday the town of Rochdale has been in a state of tranquil sad. toess,nor were aoy indications of insubordination evinced in the neighbourhood. The following letter, which we received at a late hour last night, contains the latest in formation from that place— Rochdale, )lay 8,11111. Isaac Turner. of College-street, died on Wednesday evening, the 6th instant. None others of the wounded are yet dead, though some of them are in a very dau gurus state. The 6th Enniskillen Dragoons lelt town en Thursday, and their place was supplied by a party of the 9.h Lancers, and a company of the 50th Regiment of loot arrived the same day. At seven o'clock this morning the sixteen prisoners committed to the county gaol litre conveyed from this town upon a coach hired for the purpose. They were escorted by a party of the 9th Lancers, headed by James Crossley, and John Beswicke, Eirs. Magittiates; a company of the 5011)1 F-ot, which had been drawn up near the prison, lot lowed, in the rear, and the procession moved through she town with great solemnity. Several bundled people were assembled to witness the awful situation tf the prisoners, whose dearest friends durst scarcely lift their flacls to wave a sad adieu to them. Not the least Indi cation of tumult was heard or seen, and indeed the weaeers, since the fatal Tuesday evening, up to this • hour, appear to be peaceable and quiet. The Coroner's Jury . met- at the Reed Inn this day, at I eleven o'clock. The reporter for a Morning Paper ad- I dressed alliote to Mr. Ferranti, the Coroner, requesting, to Wit if hi would be permitted to take notes of the evideoce? To which the Coroner replied, that he ex cluded every one not coon cted with the examination, and should not make an exception in favour of the re porters.:—Upon the Coroner coming out of the house where the dead body of James Kay was lying, the re porter again addressed him, and asked him it he still persisted in his intention of excluding reporters from hearing the evidence given no the Inquest? Colman—Yes; I do not see any good that would result from it. I wish you would mind your own bu siness and stay at home. _ . . Reporter—l presume to think it highly requisite, in ljustice to all parties. that the simple evidence should be aid before the public. Coaortaa—l do not see any necessity for the whole country being made acquainted with it. An , cher Reporter observed, that the publication of the evidence was the only means by which any erroneous reports which were in circulation could be corrected. COROVIIL—We shall have the correct evidence; and yen would not come here if you were not paid for it. ' Reporter—That remark applies no mote to myself than you.—Here hostilities ceased. Names of Penal. Dead.—Jamey Kay, 40 ; Thee. Beckley, 11 ; Mewed Wake% 1 ; Isaac Turner. U; Abraham rayler, ; Abel Stmt. T. RIOTS IN STOCKPORT. We regret to say that the peaceable disposition of the operatives which has been manifested throughout the whole affair of the torn-out, was on Tuesday changed into an indication of violence and disorder. In the after noon a large concourse of people had assembled en Hea ton.laneigathered it would seem by an opinion aniongst them that a a knobstick," with his family and furniture !lad arrived t take the situation of some other ipinner. It was no sooner discovered than his furniture was thrown about and attempted to be broken; and this inten tion being met with some opposition from the man's ft tends, stones were thrown at his party, and it was rendered necessary for their protection that the civil power should be called in. During the affray the people had congregated to the number of 2000, and from their hooting and yelling., serious apprehensions presented themseives, and it was soon seen that the police officers were incompetent to the ta►k of dispersing such a body, though three of the most riotous had been taken from amongst them. On the arrival of a Magistrate for the purpose of reading the Riot Aet, with a detach ment of the infantry, they had principally dispersed ; but those who bad gone away had done so by signal from one of them, and they had taken the road to Port wood, where they attacked the windows and house of one of the Scotch people who have been brought into the town to work. In this attempt they were followed, and again dispersed, but not without first doing some mischief. The following evening, about seven o'clock, the people began again to congregate in Heaton-lane, op posite to the George Inn, and upon the appearance of any police officer they were instantly saluted with hooting' and hissing, of the most annoying description. In this way did their hostility to all authority begin to exhibit itself, and every minute alter that hour, until eight, the crowd thickened so rapidly, that the whole length, from the George Inn, to the Wellington Bridge Inn, was, in that short time, one dense mass of per sons. To disperse Such a body by the aid of the civil power was thought impossible; still the at• tempt was better to be made by the civil power than to call in the auistance of the military, and for that purpose. the magistrates with a posse of special con• stables attempted to direct the front of it by turtling it down the steps, which leads to the Chestergate; but in thi. they were unable, as the mob defied all resist ance, and easily forced its way up the road towards Sprint Bank Mill. They had no sooner effected this 'poidriban they commenced throwing bricks and stones .at the Magistrates and Constables, in such numbers and . with such violence as to put their lives in the most im mineot jeopardy for some time, many of the special ciinstables being seriously injured, and Mr. Marsland himself, from the rush of the multitude, being thrown down. This stale of battery was kept up by the multitude until the Magistrates, with the High Co nstable and a picquet of six men of the 67th tout ar rived to the assistance of the special constables and police ofLess, when it *at deemed necessary to read the Riet•Act, and afterwards to order the soldiers to fire. Bat the Order to do so was to intimidate rather than to injure, and they were directed to elevate the mouth of their pieces so as to pass over the heads of the rioters. Several rounds were fired without the Slightest effect towards their dispersion, and it was not until Silty shots bad been fired, in this manner, that they could be inJuced to depart. A few per sons were seised by the special constables and conveyed to the New Bailey ; their names are— John Done, a baker, SO years of age; James Perkins, 19, a carder ; William Shore, 17, a piecer ; John Roth well, 24, a carder; Samuel Bodes), 22, a • spinner ; Henry Wayte, 19, a weaver; William Limiter, 18, a labourer, and Edward Fletcher, 19, a labourer. Two ether prisoners, John Dugdale, 28, a spinner, from Manchester, and Joseph Smith, 40, a stretcher, also from Manchester, were seized and . brought from the Gall tivein to the New Bailey, by order of the magis trate', under suspicion of appearing as delegates from that town. All the prisoners appeared before the magistrates at the Petty Sessions on Thursday, and were rcmandeJ to SatcrJay,eacept Done, who was discharged. By tee clock the tussah had subsided, and the anchor ides had left the pound, nor did any thing further occur after winds. Mr. Robinson, of Spring Bank Mill, had some windows in the lodge of his factory broken, but further violence was prevented. We are sorry to hear of seve ral persons having been huit by the firing ti the soldiery, as such cases must have been purely accidental, but we find on inquiry that none of them me very serious. SPI' ,711rERS. WORSHIP STRRET. Tat SPITALPILLSO Witameas.—Saturday. several Immersion weavers were placed at the bar, charged with asides and destroy ing the silk, kc. entrusted with them to weave. Charles Dow's., of No. 4. Bedford -tow, Twigfelly, was Sea placed at the bar, charged with destrwylog a quantity of velvet, the property of Daniel Walters, et Wilson -street, Finsbery. Mr. Walters stated as fellows.—On the 10th March, I delivered to the prisoner sissy yards of velvet ground, and one hundred mod sixty yards of Pelt. On Sunday evening last, about fa o'clock, he came to me and said his work had been esti that be heard a knock at the doer, and told his wife it was some of the mita, not I chaps, and not to open the door ; there came another knock, and his wife opened it, when sand men rushed in and cut one loosn's work belonging to me, and two looms' work belonging to mother master. Wm. Merryman, a journeyman weaver in the employment tit Mr. Walters, stated—On Sunday evening last I was walking polit the prisoner's bane, when I saw a great crowd, and was told some work belonging to my master had been cut; I west into the shop, and saw the velvet produced cut to pieces; I paid one halfpenny to see it ; I did not see the prisoner there ' • there were a great many kaUpence and silver on the table in the shop; k was given for the relief of the prisoner. Mr. Walten—How mock work of this sort can you do a day? that is, by working from seven o'clock till ail in the evening. blerrynian—A yard and a half, Sir.

Merryman—Yea, Sir; I cut it a and took it hems this morn. ing—(A laugh)—but it has not been destroyed. Mr. Walters—l paid ball a crows per yard, and surely a man, by making a yard and a half a day, can get a living. The very morning the work was cur, the prisoner came io the warehouse for same money ou account of his work; I paid him ISt. and told him set to leave his house, as so many keens' work had bees cut. He said he would not. He has received altogether IL ISs. on account of his work, by false represeatadens, saying he had does more work than he actually had. BOOVOIITOO (to the prboner).—lt's clearly proved you had the work, and it's cut, you mum show us you did not cut it; and if ,sett by any other person you must show you made some resistance, the same as you would have dew for your own property. Prisoner—lts false to say I got 101. there was mot a quarter of VII I wish there was, it would be a service to use--sow paid Id. sad souse Idr. asooeseou—There Is something very particular about your ease; it is a more serious riarge than you are aware of; and as you are criminally charged, you need not answer any question es cept you think proper. The second and third cases were against !When Orange, of No. 10, Winchester.entment, and William (Islamise, of No. 4, Win . . - . cheater-croft:oat. fee cutting s goaatity of silk volvet i the property of Daniel Wotan. Mr. Waiters stated, ea the id of April I delivered to the setter Orange 110 yards pole and 100 yards velvet ground. upon which he has received 31. 108 at account ; and en the fd of April I delivered the sante quantity to Galant, and he has received U. Is. on account ; beth the Owners obtained the money by say ing they had done more work than they actually had. I accused the prisoner Gallica', of having deceived sea--be said be was jus tified in attending the meetings, and must be paid foe it. I had cautioned them net to leave their bonen. Os Wedneaday morn ing last Orange same to ase and said both work had been cut and the reedy broken. Prisoner Orange—W. want knows that my looms' week is in Oaillenges house, sad 1 stns obliged to work there, having no tools of my own. Os Wednesday morning, about two es three o'clock. some perms' knocked at my door, and told me my work had been destroyed. i went and saw it had been cot to pieces. Prisoner Oalkenge made the usual defence dm some perms knocked at the door, kis wife got up, and saw some one is tlto stairs, but did nut wake him. Mr. Bainiestree—Yours bas yea a case as ever came before me. You draw money from your master. but don't work—the money is to spend—those meetings are ruining you—yoor swim are utterly absurd. I shall remand you until Tuesday neat. and Orange must enter into his own recognizance in 511. to appear at this office en Tuesday. The fouttb case was against an old man named James Cole, re siding in Swan court, also in the employment of Daniel Walters, for cutting a quantity of silk velvet. The prisoner was ordered to find bail. The Ards case was against James Alexander (who had bees de tained in the watch-boose all night) in the employment of Meters. Francis and Jelin Giles. of &eward•strset, appal-delds, for cot sing a quantity of um de Naples, between SO and SO yards of which bad been stolen. Ik. Baonsutrono—Your's is a very argravidcd cave; tie ow/ 1 1 you have told is an improbable NW, and very differost from what, Too told the slicer. The prisoner was remanded until Totsday nest. When the weavers were getting into the leak for the purpose of being eouveyed to Oerkenwell prime. they were cheered by a num ber of weavers who were waldog outside she slice. The standar don lasted about seven boars. In consequence of the limeades destructio• of silk, audio order to save what is in the hands of the journeymen. several of the ma nufacturers have agreed to give the prices the ieurneymea have re quired, that is the priers of 1124; bat when the weavers went to some of their misters for work they were refused it, wet wand they make any farther advance of wages; and. indeed, several of them have declared they cannel coadaue the prices of 1524. A jearneyman , who had three apprentices, was asked what difference the prices of 1524 would make in his family? He replied 30s. per week. What, then win he the consequence when the masters deviate from the prices el 11124? Why it will create a greater dis turbance than ever. The wifc of a weaver, owned Resew, mad, a complaint t. as Magistrate, about a bill that bad bus stuck ID a publican's wia dow, threatening her husband's life, for basing taken his wick home to his muter.

Renew went to ask his master to let bias bring his work home, done and endone ' for tear of its being de stroyed, and be took It home to Mr. Bdasoods ; the said man lives at No. 57, St. John &rem." Mr. Hausmann said. it was a most inflammatory paper, and cal. sedated to do a deal of mischief ; the man's Ufe was in danger by being held up to public exposure to upwards of gOoxits weavers, and the landlord should be answerable for the consequences. Mr. Benjamin Homer, the landlord. said be did not knew It was In his window, it mast have been put in by some person unknown to hint. _ Mr. Dsocanros said the °Vence was very reprehensible. aid be sbould sequins Mr. Homer to enter into his sown recognisance in £lOO to answer any iadictosent that may be preferred spinal him at the Sessions. Yesterday morning several other looms were cut, one of which belonged to Messrs. kluore and Wilson, and w barb had only bets given out a few days age; the weaver to wheal it was entrusted absconded for several hours, but was apprehended by a puts of the Bowlstreet patrols. He said be was talking to the man who cot it for a considerable time about some birds, yet does net know film The modern city of Moscow is in great part cos siructed of English bricks.

Wednesday siennight, the wife of Mr. John Goodwin, carpenter. of Borstall,' near Whitstable, expired, after giving birth to a fine child (the eleventh). When the melancholy event was disclosed to the husband, it had .uch an effect on him as to bring on violent hysteric fits, which continued at intervals two or three days. His ruffei lags, however, were so acute,• that be died, sup posed of a broken heart, in something less than a week of er the demise of his wife.

Leir continued to the last perfectly callous and indifferent to what was passing around him. He ate his meals heartily. as usual, and, on the night before the execution. he slept so soundly that the watchman of the Castle, whose duty it was to call him up, to prepare for his conveyance to the City GA 1, had considerable difficulty in awaking him. He swallowed a large basin of tea and ate several slices of bread and butter for his breakfast this morning, and seemed to chide his companion in misery.
