COMBINATION IM Denttx. —Mr. Barrett, of Aungier street, shoe-maker, appeared at the Police-office on 'Chum dty last, to make a complaint of the men in his employ ment. They had, he stated, given him notice, some time since, that they would not bring home their work on Sa turday night, leering him, we suppose, the alternative of sending for the work, or disappointing his customers. On Ssmrday night &.s they acted in accordance with this no:." lice; the consequence of which was the disappointment of the persons who dealt with hint. When Mr. Barrett's men came for work on Monday, he refused to give them any unless they consented to bring them home when 41- risked. With this they refused to comply, and departed, since which time they can get no one to work for him. lie also stated that he reeeired a letter, purporting to come from the men in his employment, to the effect, that " the Council of Trade" would not allow them to work for him. Sane of the men who worked foe him threatened his fore man, that for every day be kept them without work, lie should pay a Ene of Ss. This the Magistrates of the Head Office of Police considered to come within the provisions , of the late act, and issued their summonses for the attend sue of the parties, at the same time, directing that Mr. Birrett's foreman should make information as to the threat.

In our last we inserted a resolution passed st tbs meeting of t I:7r Master Manufacturers' Association held In • Bradford ''estettlav week, to the effect that they would, at their meeting on Monday; take into consideration the pro. priety and expediency of the masters proposing to their re spective workmen a personal tliscudsion of the differences existing between them. At the.Mecting on Monday that question come under consideration, and was carried in the affirmati've by a large majority of voices, the minority ex- I pressing their readiness to conform to the decision of the majority. On Tuesday ea c h o f t he masters separate l y i n-1 cited the workmen Who he'd %n al in their employment previous to the Strike, to confer with them on the sullied I of their differences, and they were waited upon by a de. puts don from each shop. The principal question proposed ' to them was tobatantially this—" Do you adhere to the Statement Of advanced prices `which were deli'vreil by the Union at the 'conuiieun:;inent of the contest, or 00011 you now Accept any lower price than that which was theti fixed?" To this inquiry the deputies returned answers, and I on Weilmsday the masters had another meeting, when each of them reported upon the nature of the answer they had re ceivell,tchich amounted in effect to this, " that the workmen invariably declared their determination to adhere to the! statement of prices formerly delivered." Upon this result, no resolution appears to have been come to by the Masters, ' and the %wing adjourned till Monday the St9tii that, wish the view, probably, of trying what effect will be produced by the stoppage of their mills. In the mean time they re aolrel to publish the particulate of a conversation of a dessi-official nature, held betweeh Mr. William Rand, a' partner in the house of Messrs. John Rand and Sons, ma- . nufacturirs, and Mr. John Tester., the Beeretary of the Union gociety-, developing the views of the parties. One fact important 100th to the masters and to the men has been elicited by alit conference, namely, that the men will work in any concern where combing.trachines power looms are or may be in operation. Are learn slew that the combers and weavers of Pradford; in the Union society, have no wish to place any of their fellotc-steorkmen ender a ban; and that they do not object to work *ith per sins who are not in the Union. They chain the tight to act for themselves, and they leave to others the free exer• cise of the same privilege. In tact the points et Issue be tween the parties are now considerably narrowed. The masters no longer snake it a sine qua non that the men should give up the Union ; they have nut indeed in tetms, but they have tacitly abandoned that ground. This is a great concession, and ought to be so considered by the men. Three houses, who have seceded from the Mutat' As. lodation, arc now paying the advanced price to the Um bers, but no advance has been given to the Weevers by El Of them; on the contrary a reduction of sixpence a piece in weavers' wages has taken place in some of the neighbouring towns since the contest commenced, and combing in those places remains at the old price. The principal part of the mills in Bradford and its immediate neighbourhood continite at rest—in several cases they Are turned into school's, Ind the masters are causing the work people, that remained with them up to the time of the stoppage, to he instructed or improved in reading, writing, &c.

BISHOP LUSCO MB E. A singular and very striking event has occurred in the history of British episcopacy, which, We apprehend, is yet very little known, but which cannot fail to be highly in teresting to the clergy of the Established Church. Our clerical readers may perhaps have noticed in the newspapers reports of marriages abroad performed Wight Reverend Bishop Luscombe—we ours-' marked their details, and made proper inquiries tain the real facts of the rase, awl under *bat or of *kr Church Pr. Luscomb* laid been 14511011. The labour of our research, however, into what cannot but be considered a most important matter, has been con siderably lightened by having met with the sermon preached in the Episcopal Chapel, at Stirling, at Poctor Luseotobe's consecration ; to which is prefixed, an adVer tisement, in which the particulars of the case are fully and clearly developed. Convinced, as we are, that to thaw who are attathed to the interests of the Established Church, the details will be highly interesting, we submit the advertisement entire : " During a residence of five years in Prance. the atten tion of Dr. Luscombe (Chaplain to his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge) was naturally directed to the state of religion stnotig his countrymen settled in that country, the number of . vMent actually resident is caleiduttd at no less than Afty thaosand ; and he could not but ob serve with regret, the great inconvenience and danger to which this large body of British subjects were ex posed, from the absence both of proper teachers episco pally harmed and visited, and of the regular adminis tration of the holy Sacraments. Ile was More particularly awakened to the evils thus incurred by so large a portion of persons educated in the principles of the Church of England, by the representation of the most respectable amongst them, touching the rite of Confirmation, .fiom which their children were altogether excluded. This im portsnt want, coupled with the evident difliculty of holding a religious community together without some acknowledged tie, or authorised bond of union, induced him to apply for advice and assistance to such of his friends in the Church at home, as, by their station and talents, Might have suf ficient influence to carry into effect his designs for the pre vention or remedy of an evil so obvious and injurious to the best interests of religion. " It was at first thought, that by the appointment of a Suffragan to the Bishop of London, this object might be attained; but the revival of an office so long disused was deemed objectionable; and the numerous other difficulties presented themselves, arising from the connexibn in this country between the Church and State. Dr. Luscombe was advised, therefore, to lay his case before the Bishops of Scotland, and to seek that assistance from them which circumstances rendered it improbable he would obtain in England. After a long correspondence, in which zeal and prudence equally marked the conduct of the Scotch Pre lates, they determined not only to adopt the plan suggested by fir. Luscombe, but, it he were willing to abandon his prospects at home, to c9nseerate hies as their missionary Bishop to Alt British jillow-subjects abroad. Upon this decision, Dr. Litscombe did not fora moment hesitate to make the sacrifice required of him ; and proceeding to the north, with the author as his Chaplain,, was canonically consecrated a Bishop of the Church of Christ, at Stirling, on Sunday, the loth day of March, Ins.

It may be proper to add, that a small, a very small addi tien, has been made to the incomes of the Bishops, by a subscription of late years raised both In Scotlaud and Eng land. "It will, it is presumed, be permitted, to one, hose heart still glows with gratitude fOr the reception he met with, from his fathers and brethren in the north, and who will ever remember, with admiration, the primitive piety, founded upon purify of faith and soundness of doctrine which he there found among the metnbers of that poor but still venerable communiou—to, conclude this adver tisement, with the sentiments, anti in the words of good Bishop Horne: ' If the groat Apostle of the Gentiles were upon earth, and it were put to hilt choice with what deno., urination of Christians be Ofould coremunicate, the prefer. once would probably be given to the Episcopalians of Scot land, as most like the people he had been used to.'"

The note* purported to be those tif three partners I whereas, in fact, theft *ere only two, and the one named John Rawson had no existence whatever. to comparing the notes there was a variance between It and as laid in the indiennent, particularly in the number& 31r. Justice Bar Le - considered that the varlinee in !he rum. bcra could not be maintained as an objection. With reepet to the nonexistence of Mr. Rawson, the note, If good, would have been binding on the other, and as such at present I shall admit it as evidence. There was also a letter S. in the indiettneni in the signatbre of Rawson to the note, which, Rhea shown to the Jury, they declared it to be 8. S. Rawson, and nlSt T. i. Wrenn. Mr. Justice Bruiser—Then, Gentlemen, this is not the note described In the indictment. It is quite irregular to have depo. sitions taken as they have been in this instance. I beg it may be' known that the depositions are always to be taken before and in the hearing of the accused. They should bear upon the face of them that they were so taken. indeed, I shall take care that :he matter be represented to the proper quarter. Mr. STAIKIE—I shall take care, my Lord, that your Lord. ship's opinion is known at Manchester. The first indictment was therefore declared to be bad, and On that the prisoner was acquitted. He was again arraigned upon a second indictment, but the Jury (a fresh one) agreed with the other that the variance was the lame, and the priioner was acquitted. ARSON: Writ. Tratei.e and David MunAs were chaiged with having fe. lonieusly set fire tb a rick of hay at Warrington ' the property of John Morris. It appeared in evidence that on the 4th of April the primmer" were seen going towards the field* where the stack was, and illoaks hail in his hand a lump of cotton wool, which appeared to he on fire. They were seen to enter the field, and in a very short dine afterwards the stick was observed to be in flames. Some perions, whb on seeng the fire came towards the stack in an oppo. site direction; met the prisoners running &wit, and took them into custody, when they said, that, on coming to the stack, they found it on tire, and ran away lest it should be laid upon them. The Jury acquitted the prisoners. HORSE STEALING. Jarizcs reanrdyi,and Patrick Calais were eeritaffy indicted for having stolen a horse, the property of Fribcia Ilynes, of Liver pool, in the months of August I (st. It appeared, from the statement of Mr. Clarke, that the horse was originally stolen in Ireland, on the Ist of July bum The prisoners shipped the horse from Wamen's Point. near Dublin, I and openly offered it for sale at Liverpool, and exercised every act of ownership. Cohan. upon being called upon foi his defence, said that he bought the horse from a man on the 4th of Jitly : that When a di& 1 ficulty arose as to his possession of the horse, he had the men taken into custody ; but that when brought before the Magistrate at Li. ter pool be was distills*, because he y (Coln) had all hie witnesses in Ireland. All he could (lay in addition was, that if the though( pioper to hang him Orungfully, he was quite willing and ready to die. Mr. Justice BAYLEY summed up the evidence, and the Jury found Colin Guitty, and Acquitted Kennedy, against whom there was nD deelsive evidence. CIVIL SIDE. GREY AND ANOTHVIL t'. rktwtsti.t.
