This was attended by twofold at:-•ancgge, inasmuch as it did not leave ►hero so open to detection, and therefore rave them a better opportunity of continiiing tli,ir devastations. Stilt!, with all these udvanufg,•s. :hey row r d;t se react the small but resolute band of special conitabks ; who, under the command of the Mayor. were every where recdy to resist them. Some bor 9 gentlemen who had mounted them selves on horseback and armed themselves with swords, were of great utility in scouring theetreets and bringing in prisoners, who were immediately placed in the custody of the soldiers of the ;Ist. We are happy to say, that in the struggles between the t o parties, net impious personal injury was done to either of them. some of the rioters got heavy blows from the stalls of the •rt ,tables, and wined the constables awkward contusions from the brick-bats hurled at them by their opponents; but nu live, wer e either lost or endangered. IVhen we left the town, which was st 4 o'clock in the morning, tranquillity was perfectly re-eita hlishod ; 30 or 41) rioters were in custody. and the gentleman who had gone with the express to Stockport. had returned with the intelligence, that. thought a battle between the military an! the rioters was momentarily expected. a troop of infantry had started front Stockport. and were when he left them withic. an hour's march of Macclesfield. At Stockport the magistrates were assembled at the Warren Bulkeley Arms, before which the soldiery was drawn out, as that was the first point againt which the rioters had declared their intention of making an mock. Si• miler riots wow expected at other places ; almost all the military being stationed at Alenchester. " MANCHESTER, lrechseolay Evessiwg, 8 o'Ckwak: --Nothing of particular importance has transpired since I wrote yea yester day. A death-like stillness pervade; the town, which looks MOTC a place Lesieged than the once busy capital afshe first menu featuring district in the world. Tranquillity bee scen re esta bli,lied. but, I fear much, not on the most secure basis. Every hady is under fearful apprehension that the state of extreme exasperation into which the populace have been universally thrown by the melancholy events of Monday. and which they arc continually indices:mg in a hundred ominous ways, may yet burst forth in a manner too awful to be contemplated. The Authorities here do not conceal their fears; they feel that their situation now is even worsetban it was. orders. I understand, from an authority on whichl can rely. have been rent off in different directions fee atm regular troops. Yet where these -troops ore to be spared from I know not, for, according to every account which has reached as here, all the towns roundabout us, Stockport, Macclesfield, Oldham, &e. are even in s worse state than we are. In fact, it is horn without that every body dreads n.ast ; for, notwithsnurchng the hoax of yesterday, a re-action on the part of the country people, favoured as they are sure to be by the mass of the people in Manchester, is an event which the most reasonable and sedating allow to be but too probable. " Neither Hunt nor airy -ofjtia fellow prisoners have as yet teen brought up for a scconrexamination; I understand that Hunt sent a strong representation, through the keeper of tie prison, to the Magistrates, to he admitted to give b:i1; but that no answer,eitheraegatively or affirmatively, has yet been made to it. Indeed it is yet to be known whether the offence which be is charged with is a bailable one or not. The prisoners are all confined in separate cells, and arenot suffered to have any coin n.unication with each other. The examination will, I under lt,tod, certainly take place to-morrow. : - •• On inquirai,g at the Infirmary, I am happy to find that there has not been anysfarther addition to the number of the dead ; but mai) , are still in srvery dancrous state from their wounds.
