Colonel duo Antonio Nitwit:alit, Lieutenant Colonel Don Lorna:a Captain Dou Ciregorio enrretero, and Lieut. Don Joao litygtaillo, came to my house. After the usual toreadors of criemony, Carretern addressed me !b.f.:— " Villain, y nar last hum is twine; all America is lost, a d there is now nu serape for you."

They then all artarked me, I MI, and in the strug gle t t get up, received some contusions in the face and d lei no part, of the body.

Havieg at ii•itepted to surprise the barracks, at the sante time that they entered and sot mantled tills house, the troops turned out on the rdariti, and the people, as it were by an electric stroke, /k.w to arms. Finding nay door fastened, the people pro rented to break it open, which convinced those who acre attacking me that their scheme hail proved abortive. Snuck with terror, they now besought me tip save their lives, and. I went ion under pretest of quieting the people in the bilVel.

I cannot find la n guage to describe to you the cowardice of these sit assassms, who, having attacked me quite unexpectedly, and got possession of my arms, left me without any resource s except the confident reliance I placed ins the good dispontictit of the people, and the conduct which they have always inalutained in similar cases. I was not deceived its my hopes. The %hole town acted with the gleatest energy, and with as much modenstion as coxed be .expeeted on an attempt which threatened --the lives of all -toe inhabitants. Those who were taken at the barracks amleted the fate of the rest. At first they got possession of the :ullll. but they were soon recovered, and they were killed with their own arms in their hands. Among them acre the !twat:int of the Army, Don Miguel liairorta, aid Lieut.-Col. Arras, who defended themselves until they .ti 11, Lie former with a 1111'44 cl, and the latter w ill a moskel.

GL ‘SGOW W EAVERg. EXTRACT Or A PRIVATE LETTER PROM GLASGOW. •' BRIDGETON. JUNE *2. " The meeting which took place 014 lilt 16th has been vat ionsly estimated, room 20,000 to 60,000, and some will have it that no fewer than 100,000 persons were on the Green, from, first to last. Yon can easily figure to yourself the thousands of operative weavers who were there, who get wages varying through all the shades of difference, from less than one-half to less than one-sixth of original prices ; but it is not so easily conceived how such • multitude, assailed by so many heart-rending privations, could behave as they did. They retired from the heisting. iu a way or manner that would have done honour to any class, age, or nation. Never was the power of seand and correct principles more satisfactorily illustrated, never the extent of human endurance mute convincingly proved. What will be the feelings, what the fears, of those who bare been in the habit of calling and treading In as the Scerly, it is high time for these men to think that opprobrious names are now most unappropti ate, and unworthy of MCII of liberal minds."
