AUGUST tt attacks, having first taken the precaution to extinguish all the gas lights in the town. This was attended by twofold advantage, inasmuch as it did not leave them so open to detection, and therefore gave•them a better opportunity of continuing their devastations. Still, with all those advantages, Jiey never durst meet the small but resolute band of special constables; who. under the command of the Mayor. were every where ready to resiit them. Some 8 or 9 gentlemen who had mounted them selves on horseback aid armed themselves with swords, were of great utility in scouring the streets and bringing in prisoners. who were immediately placed in the custody of the soldiers of the .11st. We are happy to taY, that in the struggles between the two parties, no sea ions personal injury was dune to either of them. Some of the rioter. got heavy blows from the staff's of the con stables, and some of the constables awkward contusions from the brick-bats hurled at them by their opponeres ; but no lives were either lost or endangered. Whets we left the town, which was at 4 o'clock in the rooming. trancuillity was perfectly re-esta blished ; 30 or -to -, voters were in custody, and the gentleman .who had gone atilt the express to Stockport, had returned with the intelligence, that, though a battle between the military and the rioters was momentarily expected, a troop of infantry had started from Stockport, and were when he left then. within an hour's march of Nl:webs-field. At Stockport the magistrates were .as4embled at the Warren Bulkeley Arms, Wore which the soklicry was drawn out, as that was the first point againt which the rioters had declared their intention of making un attack. Si• miler riots were expected at other places; almost aU the military being stationed at Aisne:ester. " MAXCNEsrii, Wedresday.eeeniag. 3o' Clock. —Nothing of patticular importance has transpired since 1 wrote you yester day. A death-like stillness pervades the-town, which looks more like a place besieged than the once busy capital of the first manu facturing diced:: in the world. Tranquillity has been re esta blished, but, I far mud!, tot on the most secure basis. Every body is under tea.ful arprehention that the state of extreme exasperation into which the populace have been universally thrown by the melancholy events of Monday, and which they are continually indicating in a hundred ominous ways, may yet burst forth in a manner too awful to be contemplated. The Authorities here do not cimceul their fears; they feel tl•at their Littiathan now is even worse t:,an it was. Orders, I understand, from ari zuchority on which I can rely, have bean sent oft in different dtreztions for more regular troops. Yet where these troops are to be spared from I know not, for, acconling to every :.7taault which has reached as here, all the towns round about us, S..r.ckpc , rt. Macclesfield, Oldham, ike. are even in a worse state r . ...n we arc. In fact, it is from without that every body dreads most: for, notwithstanding the hoax of yesterday, a re-action on the part of the country people, favoured as they arc sure to be by the may of the people it Manchester, is an event whiah the most reasonable and reflecting allow to be but too probable. •• Neither hunt nor any of his renew prisoners have as yet been brought up for a second examination; I understand that Bunt sent a strong representation, through the keeper of the prison, to the Magistrates, to he admitted to give bail; but that no answer,ei t her segatively or ag - Innatively.haus yet beta- made to it. Indeed it is yet to be knewn whether the offence which he is charged vi:th is a bailable one or not. The prisoners are all confined in separate cells, and are not suffered to have any cons munication w rth each other. The examination will, I under score, certainly take place to-morrow. • On r,quiring at the Infirmary. i am happy to find that there nas not been any farther addition to the number of the dead; but ninny are still in a very dangerous state front their wounds. h• P.
