I hasten to tend you an account, u far as I have been able to collectthc particulars, of a dreadful affray whi'elt occurred in. this county, at a place called Dromen, about seventeen miles from this city, yesterday. "On that day a fair was held,.and two parties, whohave been. the authors of most of the outrages which have disgraced this county, tolled theihree and loth- year old boys; inflamed .against each other on account of somerivate - quarrel; seiceted this occasion, when they could best' ;ouster their forces, to have a pitched battle; and bring ifie matter to a decisive result. Oti the ;light before the fair, the four year olds collected all their forces at a place called Athlaccy, withirt about a mite of. the.fair-green, and' appeared to be well provided pith fire-arms, There they waited till about noon of the following day, when they proceeded In good order to the fair-green, distinguished by white handker chiefs tied round their heads, dressed as lightly possible, And bare-footed, so as to be better able to secure a retreat. If necessary. In order to throw their opponents, the three year old boys, into confusion, who were drawn up in battle arraron the brow of the bi ll, they drove a parcel of bul locks before them ; but the latter, by the order of flair leader, made a retrograde movement, end covering them selves behind a wall on their left, allowed the cattle to pass_ The four year olds continued to advance, and commenced BrPT. 29.

Instead of seven or eight thousand being thrown out of employment by the adoption of the Resolutions by the masters at Ketghley, only about one thousand more have been thrown upon the Union, and part of these, I imagine, may be placed to the ac count of Halifax. Nl'lliether the relative fewness in the numbers, thrown upon the Union, arises from the men at Keighley, lke_. dis avowing the Union, and so keeping their work, or from the disin. clination of some of the masters to act upon their Resolutions I cannot tell, but I apprehend it may be attributed to both the causes united. I believe it is the intention ,of the men, in case they should not be able to support an extensive strike, to conti•ie themselves to Bradford, where they , make themselves sure of ultiMately suceed ing in their demands. ' The folkrwing we likewise received last night " Keighley, Sept. 211, 1823. "A meeting of the spinners and manufacturers was held at the Desoustdre Arms on Tuesday last, for the purpose of adopting the Resolutions passed at Bradford, on Thursday last, but the number of gentleman not exceeding thirty or forty, it was resolved, that the subject should be re-discussed at Bradford on Thursday i {this day.)"

The vintage commenced at Bourges, in France, on the 18th ultimo. The wine is abundant, and promises to be ex cellcn t. charged from their employment. The harmony of the meeting was, however, obstructed by George Crabtree, a printer, of radical notoriety, who, a short time before the commencement, requested permission to advocate the cause of the combers and weavers. He had, however, scarcely commenced his address, when he departed from the object of the meeting, and attacked the Government. The Chairman called him to order; and, by a vote of the meeting, poor Crabtree, having more zeal than craft, was unceremoniously expelled from the plat form, and the proceedings continued. On Saturday last, there was a numerous meeting of the worsted spinners and manufacturers of Halifax, held at the Old Cock Inn, in that town, Jonathan Akroyd, Esq. in the chair, when they resolved— " That, in consequence of a considerable portion of combers and weavers having retained their work under a verbal promise to die_ continue their support to the Union, and having nevertheless afforded assistance through the medium of some other members of their family, this meeting consider it absolutely necessary to re quire the signatures of all whom they retain in their employ, to the form annexed. That we also engage not to employ any work man, unless he does at the same time show a written discharge from his late employer, certifying that he is not connected with the Union." In ensequence an Address to the Operatives in the worsted trade was published in Halifax, on Tuesday last, in which they declare " they cannot view the conduct of the masters without surprise and indignation ;" and that it is " no part of their duty to submit to such unprincipled opprexsion." They add, that they are " resolved not to be their absolute slaves, or to stiffer themselves, their wives, and children, to remain in the abject and degraded condi tion of irrational animals, but to enjoy that share of hap , piness and mental improvement designed for them by that gracious Providence, which has placed them here as proba tioners for another and a better world." The Address proceeds to implore them to support the Union, and " not abandon that noble resolution of their ancestors, that :Britons never shall be slaves either to fo reign or domestic tyrants." It tells them to " beware" of giving their names, and after some mysterious expressions about " commerce introducing fraud, and want, misery, often sin," it thus significantly concludes—" N.B. to those of our fellow workmen who are desired by their employers to sign, we would have you to consider well what may be the result, that you may not have hereafter to repent ; per adventure the preamble which you sign may appear before you in a stamped form, and who will then be able to rescue you from the iron hand of your oppressors?" COMBINATION is BARNSI.EY.—The state of the trade in this town is worthy of remark. The weavers, soon after the passing of the Combination Bill, formed an Union, a Committee of which regulated all their movements. For more than the last four months, they have been urging an advance of wages ; but as the masters are divided in opinion upon its expediency, some being favourable and others ad verse, the weavers arc trying the experiment of abetting them by piece-meal. One of the principal manufacturers, who was the first singled out, having at length yielded to some compromise, they have now declared against another, but what will be theresult cannot yet he ascertained. Be it what it may, however, it is come satisfaction to reflect, that the trade of the town still goes on, without any one (ex cepting the party against whom the opposition is directed) being at all sensible that so formidable a phalanx exists, whose whole force is levelled against a single house. It cannot be concealed, that considerable injury must be there experienced, and every well-wisher of the town must lament that some general steps arc not taken to put an end to a division, which, to one not immediately involved, does not seem of that desperate character in Barnsley, which might be admitted in other quarters. ComBINATIow.—In the course of the last few days se veral spinners of Megan. Flint°if, of Manchester, in open defiance of the agreement entered into by them with their masters, came to the resolution of turning out for an ad vance of wages. Their masters, however, very properly cited them before the Magistrates of the New Bailey, and I three out of ten proving refractory were committed. wrong!' his own _fight men a number wounded, some of whom are still in danger. The exact loss is not yet ascertained , and it is therefore probable that this affray has been still more disastrous.i- t its consequences. It is difficult to imagine how they coula have been so well provided with arms • but I have beets told plenty of money has been subscrib ed at both sides to procure them. I understand that neither the Magistrates nor Police interfered; yet there are plenty of both in the neighbourhood, and the latter generally attend at fairs to keep the peace. The scene was in preparation for hours before it commenced, and when it must have been ru moured about, why not then interfere, and thus prevent the fatal consequences that followed ? This is a matter requiring investigation, for if the facts be as I have beard, it furnishes an instance of a most gross dereliction of duty on the part of the Magistrates and Police, which deserves the highest censure. CONJURATION AND CREDULITY.—On Wednesday last, two well dressed men, and two females of the gipsy tribe. called at a farm-house not far from the potteries, at the time when the farmer was counting out the cash intended for payment of his half-year's rent, (about 301.) The cash soon attracted the attention of the visiters, and a plan was quickly formed for its safe custody. One of' the gen. tlemen took out of his pocket a quantity of sovereigns, and showed them to the farmer, and made some observations on the advantages of having plenty of cash, on which subject there was no difference of opinion. The gipsy then told him that there was hidden treasure to a great amount in the house, which the fanner was not aware of, " enough to make him a gentleman all the days of his life." The good man chuckled at the idea, and soon made the natural inquiry where it was to be found. This friend informed him it was in " a very secret place," but by a little exer.., rise of his art of conjuration he would engage to bring it to light. The good farmer, anxious to obtain so large a prize, immediately requested them to set about the busi ness, with which they readily complied : first requesting him to muster all the cash about the honse, "even to single farthing," which was accordingly done in presence of the visiters. The farmer was then requested to bring a prayer book, (pious souls!) which being brought, the good man, his wife, and three of the visiters, were ordered to stand in a certain position, of course with their backs to the cash, while one of the female visiters " made up the money in a three cornered packet;" they were now di rected to kneel down, and a portion out of the prayer hook was read, (we presume not the eighth commandment). The ceremony over, the packet was given into the hands of the farmer, with strict injunctions to deposit it under lock anti key, and not to suffer it to be looked at till Satur day, when the visiters promised to return and point out the treasure. Having concluded this propitious ceremo nial, and laid the good man's tap under requisition, by drinking success to their efibrts in his service, his kind friends departed. During the afternoon, the farmer, pleased with the idea of so soon becoming a gentleman, mentioned the circumstance to a neighbour, who happen. ing not to have quite so much faith in this myste none agency, advised him to examine the packet, and see if the cash was safe. The farmer followed his good advice, coin of this realm," a few pieces of lead, and some tone! when, instead of upwards of SOL of the "good and lawful of gingerbread were found "in the three cornered packet." trThe hi. e e rto tr w ic i k tho t t in su g dlewich, but no titling' could be obtained further.
