This day, at two o'clock, a most alarming Aro brake oat on the oboe* ostensive promises, in Bolt-coort, Fleet-street. It had wads considerably progress when we went to Press. Several houses in Gough. square had taken Are, sod the probable devastation that 'was riposted to ensue, produced the most dreadful apprehensions moo( that close sad crowd ed neighbourhood. After all that bar been dome on the aobjeet of ' Cash Payment at the Bank, whether by the Com. witless of the two nooses. or the debates in either Moose, what bus the Public gained by the matter i Why, jest as mach as it is likely to gain by the oppo 'Hien made to the Government inflicting taxes. to the amoont of three millions, on the already over. burdened People of thee, kingdoms. Contention is at an end ; and complimeats to the Directors are re commencing. Mr. GIIENIELL'II valedictory address to the twenty-four great men of Threadneedle.street, was a sort of prologue to the swell's( act, of need leg to the amoodureat i•troduced by the Lards into the Cash Payments Bill. Mr. Pau. last night moved the adoptioa, by the House of Commons, of the clause into the Bill, by which the option is loft to the Bank of resuming the payment of their Notes in the current coin of the realm, a Int later than was tint proposed. To borers this body of rich and ►oaest money-merchants will preferably hike the latter period as the choice is loft to them. Their motto Is, " pet off the evil day as long as you can," sad that of the Peers " better late ikon never."— For oar Olin ports, we remain in the saute opinion as ever. The day of payment will never come without muse sebterfoge in the way of tokens, which Is one species of from: : Of in the way of ingot, another lloenspocus payment quite as bed. The Lords say, that they deem the change they have made necessary, in order to enatik the Bank Inure ...Pettedly to prepare for the commas' Resumption of Cash Payment.. There is a kind of chicanery io the very drawing op of the reason for the extend. od time allowed the Bank, and we should like to know whether the words wets not penned in letters of gold $ That the whole meltdown , is competed its sterling language, there is great reason to suppose. We should like to enquire of the ArfORNILT and Sotactron-Gatixam. whether they lent their official aid to the drawing op of the indolent class,? The dill has been when it would have been objected to the Mose of lords making any 'Boredom in a liknoy Bill, for that this may be essay so called, is clear enmesh, since its operation is a gri tax on the People to all intents end ;tar pons. And a as of the worst kind too, because so man can exactly ukelele the silent of its ope ration, and cannot, of costae, prepare against or lessen its pressure, as against any other di rect tat. Bet as the matter now stands, the Pub lic are to bear the borders which has been so long, so deeply, sod so justly complained of, for another lengthened period by a year, in the hope of being thins relieved from it altogether, of which said pay meat, however, without some shift, trick, or evasion, we have nn more hope nor espectation Say more than la seeing the bed of the Channel quite dry, so es Oil we may gather op the treasures from its bot tom, which have been wrecked there, from the first moment its present waters were navigated!

To Tag PRINTER or vet MANI:HP:TER GAZETTE. tits,-1 am sorry to see, from the Carlisle Paper of last Saturday, that no disposition on the part of the manufacturers Is maniftrated, to meet the Ise.o.to claims of their suffering weavers. The prier at which they offer to work, if l am rightly informed, is one. third or fourth less than if given by the ch.( k and gingham manufacturers in Manchester; 131. 61. peer cat for broad work, has been the altar we hoots given for several year', and we now give td. 6.1 Their %torpors is.ve offered to warp five ru . s, 28 yards each in cloth, which in the warp wool.l be at least ISO yards 30(X) ends, for Is.; whilst we give Is. 3d. for 143 yitrils, 2100 ends. Ttieir w hiders will wind 10 lbs., 41 t•ist, 410 h.uks, (or la.; %tidal we give Is. for ItY ) hanks, or I. per bundle, from IS to 25; and Is. 21 fur 26, or hanks, and Id. per No. advance up to 40, which is It. 44.; and from 40 to 50. 24. 6:1. These are the prices we re. diced our engine winders 10 sin weeks ego. Clll an eulightened and generous Public see ti•is stritereena a l end not feel indignant at the conduct of the Carlisle manufacturers. Suppose toe revertible check and 'gingham manufacturers in Nlencheater, were to call ! their warpers and winders about them, an a l tell them for the future they would only give Carlisle priers; and ■s their w is came in, till them they had re. ducavt wages from Ov. 6.1. to 65.; how horror struck would these poor creatures be, afire Irving, as we know some of the welters have for many mouths, on ithe meanest sod most scanty fare Such a declare. lion would be a finishing terirke to that little gleam of hope which still supports them in their suffering situation; but we cannot, we will turf ; feelings of humanity alone forbid every respectable Mooches. ter manufacturer from making each a declaration.— Weaving is mach too low already, and we should be very glad if we had it in our power to give more ; but a combination of circumstances, too remittals Ito mention, prohibits the possibility of it at present, though I ass persuaded a standard might be fined, below which weaving should not be reduced, but shove which it might rise according to demand or fair competition. We are daily applied to by weavers who work for us to borrow money, some of their landlords are selling them op for rant, others cannot get credit at the shop and are starving for want, while some bare sick families and are suable to pro. vide them with necessaries or nonristments. Is this then a time to reduce labour still lower, when we can give out little more thaw:heti work, end when our weavers get little wool .aas half meet ? But to return, why do the Carlisle manufacturers wish to get their work done for so much less than we do oars; is it from the strong opposition they feel from us in our ender selling them either in this or any ether market ?No all the opposition has been created by and amongst themselves. When they made 1000 pieces weekly, fast colours end good clot►, they acid well at from 'ls. to 21. 2.1. per yard ; feeling their way without soy check or drawback from the Manchester manufacturers tusking the mow article; they went on to produce 2000 pieces weekly, which also sold well, and afforded the work•;reople good wages and themselves a fair profit; but whet► they got to making 3 to 4000 pieces weekly, the markets began to be overstocked—lsles were forced ■t low priers, and oat willing to lose any thing, one impoverished the quality and colour, and then another by little and a little, silll ticketing the goods as at fret: warranted fast colours are piloted on them, though common black and plum form the greatest part or weight in some of their pieces, malts washing of which would do away with all distinction in colour or pattern. Thus they went on to pro. dice 8000 pieces, and so on in like manner, till 6000 pieces and *petards were produced weekly ; ■ad thus gradually have they reduced the price from 2s. 2d. to 10d. per yard; and now their own impru. drove has overtaken them in making reg., th e y seem inclined to make skeletons of their winders, warpere, and weevers.—lout's, A MANciaLSTER MANVEACTUitEtt.
