The men have been off work something more than a fortnight, and during that lime, excepting some trifling squabbles amongst themselves, have been peaceable, orderly, and quiet, in their general conduct, affording neither symptoms nor apprehension of violence and dis turbance on their part. They are in numbers about 700 ; they live in rows of houses apart from the rest of the town. Of the dispute between them and their master 1 shall say only this : that both parties may be to blame in some things, but most assuredly, as a body, I think the treatment of the men harsh and oppressive.

A good deal of notice was taken in the Examiner of the gross outrage committed by a body of these same col liers, who made an attack upon the inn where a body of gentlemen had met (Mr. Blamire, one of the county members, being one) to celebrate the King's birth-day, some three months ago—then not a magistrate would, or what is the same thing, did act. Now, without any cause fur it, with nothing done, and nothing to be apprehended, as 1 believe —they are all bustle and activity. Their conduct now and three months ago, appear in strong and beautiful contrast. The military have , been sent for—this act, I suppose, upon due repre sentation from a certain quarter—and they bevel sworn in a body of special constables. Very praiseworthy activity—if there was a cause' for it—and which, doubtless, will insure them an I eulogium from that belauder of all things, past, present, and to come, Baron Brougham and Vaux. What has all this been done for ? I leave those' to answer who owe their appointment, as magis trates, to Lord Lonsdale ; and in their private ca pacities, hold offices, civil, clerical, and military, through his means. Seeing their shameless supine- I ness three months ago, whatopinion is to be formed of their conduct, now coupled with the facts that, excepting some bickering amongst themselves, which, at any other time, if brought before the magistrates, might have caused them to be fined a shillihg, for dirtying straw in the round house, as *be worthy clerk of the petty session court phrases it—that the conduct of the pitmen has been symp tomatic of no disorder or violence--that they are divided amongst themselves in nearly equal par ties—that, altogether, they form a body of seven hundred only, in a population of 17 or 18,000, and live apart from the town ? When a man is supine when violence is actually done ; and at another time, when but the bare apprehension ex ists, he is all activity and bustle—it is too harsh to say of him, that his motives are to be suspected ? Here there has been no riot—as far as from obser- 1 ration I can form an opinion, the apprehension of one seems to me groundless—why, then, have the military been sent fur ? To restrain violence ? There has been none ! My opinion is this : the military, by their presence, will overawe the men into acceptance of the terms of their employer— although it is said they are brought to protect the employer from the violence of the men. I ask what power is to protect the men from the tyranny of the master ?—Letter in the Examiner. BEER AND BISHOPS. On the presentation of a petition from the petty jurors of Knutsford, correcting statements against beer shops, put forth by the grand jury, Mr. Hunt adverted to the cant and hypocrisy which have been vented upon the subject, and instantly seve ral members rose in vindication of the Bishop of London. This is a curious instance of the asap ciation of ideas. Our Right Reverend Father in ' Goo had not been named; but the mention of cant, hypocrisy, and Beer Bill, as clearly desig nated him in the minds of his friends, as his titles of honour could have done. The usual Lauda/ems was then chawited. Member after member rose to defend the Bishop, and to vouch for the bene volence of his character, and the peculiar excel lence of his motives, especially in the particular of his pious hostility to beer. Mr. Hunt says that the question lies between gin and beer ; if so, may not the Bishop, as repre sentative of spiritual interest, be bound to take the part he has done against malt liquor? We throw out this conjecture, as offering a better ground of defence of the Bishop's busy meddling with the beer cups than has yet been presented. This we know, that if the keepers of public-houses and gin-shops have any gratitude in them, they will, in acknowledgment of the services of the Holy Bench against then competitors of the beer shops, dis place the Bacchus who now rides astride of the barrel over their doors, and mount, instead, the effigy of a bishop, in full canonicals, on the cask, emblematic of the divinity of drink. Let it be understood, that the great office of the Church of England is to prevent the people from drinking cheap beer. To that end all the power of the Clergy is now turned ; and beer, nothing but beer, fills the brains and the mouths of the Bishops —we mean rhetorically : fur these pious persons rail against cheap beer, on potations of claret and champaigne. Mr. Hams went to the dregs of the question, when he observed— That amok of tbis outcry anus from tho pumas wools thetaagistney Matta% ow Isdlvldsal Worm a prt &Nu done bast shops wet which they had so count l, hoop up those mhos hough one width they bad. Why, tbe roam for patting down the system that bad so long existed in the matey was, that the magistracy had, in many in. stances, abused this power of control. What right had the magistracy to interfere with the poor man spending Mimeses in what way be plessed,provided he did not eo omit a breach of the peace P It is at least curious that this Beer Act is the only one which has troubled the Church with a concern for the morals of the people. The game laws have been the confessed cause of the demo ralization of the labouring classes ; they have filled the gaols with prisoners, and the country with heart-burnings and strife, and have banded toge ther men whu live in habitual defiance of law, and in readiness for desperate deeds. But have the bishops ever raised their voices against game laws; have they said to the rich and voluptuonA, " For the love of pease sacrifice this sport, this luxury ; deny yourselves for the good of the peer ; lead not into temptation, as ye pm , awd....to be led into Ismptatioa ?" No, the bishops have been moved to no such entreaty, because partridges and phea sants are not as cups of small beer. His reverence himself takes a gun, and likes to see birds on his table. In the clerical county of Suffolk, more spring guns have been set for the protection of game, and more persons have been maimed and killed by them, than in all the other counties of England put together. The sale of cheap beer to the poor has not been attended with any barbarous consequences ; but the bishops would with far 1 greater horror learn, that a man was in a beer shop after ten o'c.ock, than that he was in a steel-trap the whole night for trespass on a preserve. Yet the bishops are excellent men, kind, hu mane, benevolent, actuated by a ll g ood motives. Gentlemen of the House of Commons tell us so, and we mean not to dispute their words. Bishops, we sincerely believe, are just as good as all men who keep good tables, and have the gift of goal things. Any one in these circunesiances has an excel-1 lent character vouched for hits by these classes of persons, Those who dine with him, und those who hope to dine with him: Those who ask favours of him, or those who may have to ask favours of him: When men may lure fine charasters attri buted to them from such motives, why should they do any thing to deserve them ? And this is one of the curses of a church wallowing in wealth, that the command of reputation which belongs to the possession of the goods of fortune in connection with mere decency of conduct, dispenses with any efforts to obtain the honours of virtue. What abatement would there be to the amount of virtue in the world, if the whole bench of bishops were annihilated in a moment ? Nothing but beer would be concerned in such an event. All the piety of our Church has been muddling in the mugs of the poor. Fie upon it !—Erassiser. SPIRIT OF THIS b.1143401.11.NAL5. TIMES.—The Dews from Wanes , by the Newburgh mail, which arrived yesterday, are fa lees encouraging than they have been for some time. We allude, of coulee, to the excesses committed by the Patriotic Club. But it ought at the same time to be remembered, that this intelligence comes by way of Berlin, and is copied from the Prussian Stair Gazelle. This is enough to induce us to suspend our belief till we receive further accounts. The armies are so near each other, that the news of an engagement may be expected every packet. We are sorry to see that the Com. mander-in.Chief, Skraynecid, has resigned. We fear that there is some caballing among t h e Chiefs. TIMES.—An important change is about to take place, or rather has already taken place, In the constitution of Frame t the hereditary succession se the peerage has been abolished. We say has been abolished, though the mew. sure has only just been submitted to legislative deliberation, because the power of public opinion, which is assigned by the Prise Minister as the ground of his proposition has months ago secured ha triumph. The French, who are gee. wally republican in their feelings,—who are taught to de test the ancient regime,—who consider hereditary rank as a remain of feudal barbarism,—who so strongly re sisted the law of primogeniture,—could entertain no respect for men without fortune, and with no great personal respectability, merely because they used the favour of the Court to get themselves declared peers. It was impossible to creme an aristocracy out of such materials by a mere piece of pitchman ; and, consequently, the abolition of the he reditary privileges of such a body can be no precedent for other osunuies, when an aristocracy would exist lade's°. dent of legislative functions,—when they have been knows for their services in the cause of freedom for centuries, — where their names are associated with deeds of heroic resis tance to the encroachments of the Crown, and where they would still be powerful, though stripped their privilege of commisg in making laws fur their fellow-subjects. H&BALLA—We received at a late hour lest night Ber lin and Hamburg perms to Saturday last, tits contents of which are at a serious and tudencholy important*. While the litigant* enemies of Nash Independence an pressing from all sides upon the capital, and steadily, though slowly, hemming in that brave banditti of people in a posi ion from which nothing but Polish valour and mute than Polish union can deliver them, it is &Miming to bear not merely of dhow.- tions,but of pular disorders, in Warsaw, in which all regard for i s sinsatand all respect for the laws and for justice seem to have been sacrificed to a blind and unreasoning revenge. We have before stated that, in consequence of insinuations thrown out against the honour and fidelity of some of the Chiefs, Investigations into their conduct have been going on for some time pest, but they have terminated in the complete and honourable acquittal or the accused. For some moon this judgment has been denounced as partial, and the people took into their own hands the execution of a jus Ice upon she prisoners which they conceived had been denied by the Mary Commissions. rhe details of this dis graceful violence will be found in the accompany extracts. We are sorry to see that the brave Skrsynerki h as b een compromised with this violent party, and ih.tt he has been displaced from the command of tic army. clo assa i p fl a s i oa ki i s appointed in his town, and Krucowicki to the bead of the National Gavel °meet. No bud, of m aw . queue had yet taken place, but the Russians were pres s in g more closely upon Warsaw • and their apprua c h, no d tu b s, bad been facilitated by th e unhappy dissenstms amongst I the patrio a, which are particularly uuseasonable at this Initial time. _ _ _ H BMA I.D.—On Saturday lad, when :he ministerial pro. fusion of faith upon the peerage was to be ainde to the Chamber. the annually and Women of Om public are do scribed at being at their height.

The only question. therefore, which could be fairly referrable to the legislator, were the:: three I Ought the peen to be named by the Ring ? —2. Ought their number to he unlimited ?-3. Ought the Peerage to be hereditary or for life ? Upon the two first points the Ministers said Government had made up its mind allrmatively. and would admit of no debate ; but I upon the last or the Arredite, it was willing to yield, and east the resisonsibility of its abolition upon the Cham. bee. His own and his colleagues' opinion was, after the most mature consideration. that a hereditary Peerage was the best; and in proof, he cited the example of Finland and some other countries; but still the nation bad ex. pr and Wel so uneqolsocally against the p ineiple then-be did me \woken, to abandon is. The pwposnicie which m:aisters made was, therefore, that the nomination of the Member of the Chasidim of Pont belon,i• to the king Their number is unlimited. The align( yof a peer is to be conferred fox life, and is not transmissible by hereditary de scent. The Chamber rose almost immediately after the minister had concluded his address, and the subs anew of It was known at so late an hour on Saturday evening, that we have not yet had dare to learn the sentimears of the press upon it. There is no doubt, however, that it will give rise to a most violent Marelon. The feelings of the peers themselves upon the subject are variously represented; but without entering two the controversy about some COO duet imputed to Marshal Macdonald, it Is natural enough to, suppose that the project should have but few recommenda dons for the chamber, the honours of which it proposes so materially to abridge.

At Trieste, they complain sadly of the prevent suite of things ; what with the alum about the cholera, (t .e maga of wls.cli are is. creasing.) and the very uncertain state of political affairs, it has thrown a general damp and gloom oo all commercial =lse.
