'the open .sale and free circulatio of proviiions through .the cOUntry ; and, the action and rt.-action of. the two evils heightening each other, till Saturday and Sunday last, the workmen at several of the mines' then resolved to stop working till they were supplied. This could not be done at the moment. They assembled in geoups of considerable numbers, in the quarter between Redruth and Truro., and • then versed over the country with "their empty sacks, t? "purehase corn among the farmers. On Monday, about noon, they began to enter Truro, hut not in crowus or riotou4y. Few ofthein looked like fathers of families. The far greater part wet e buys, and no small nurnber of ant girls (as the girls are called who work about the mines), and seemed rather t-1 have come from curiosity, having been thrown idle by . he stopving of the works. We must eio them the justice to say, we could not have conceived so many of them would quit their woricunder such ciretnstances, and do so little mischief. [he p:ecautionary measures, and the apprehensions they have rise to, formed the most serious part of )lie business. The leading men in most of the pspulous parishes had already, as we have said, exerted thetnselves to apply all a osiible relief. erty, and preserv e - The next duty of magistracy was to protict prop the public peace, ater b awin the turbulent, than contenthog with . With this r view h the liigli g Sheriff signed an order for the march them of a parteof the Monmouth and Brecon regiment, from Falmouth to Redruth. All wa• quiet to-day at Redruth market ; where, h owe ver. about 100 of the Welch regient still 'continue; the remainderm having returned to 1 411VIOUth, with the arms of the Stannary Artillery regiment, to be I.,uged iti Pendonii, Castle. A letter. received this evening from a respecrable friend in Illogan, says, that all the Miners are returned to their duty. Two large cargoes of American sour now in Falmouth, are expcted to be landed there; and several other cargoes are expected from America, besides barley from other parts. The magistrates are dung all in their power to relieve them, and to punish the ringleaders in any rarthe.r. disorders. ,Sy the last accounts from Manchesfer we learn, that the disturbances witi.:l-. took place there on the sth instant, had suivided. icolit Con; we a's , Lupo that, on S.tturdae se'noisht, a con.iderable ri,:b ussembled in that city, and proceeded to break Open the stores of a starch matioh , e. tiivi .in coespluenct.• of its having been rumoured that he had purchased al .1 !aid by a quantity of potatoes, for the prosecution of iiis e mployment.
