After the roullitiole had assembled the meeting was ail. i.srsied. There was considerable violence 'hewn on that vccasiou : the Exchange windows were broken. I have no doubt but malty perms. attended frum she country. 1 think there were 50,000 persons present. There were large pro cessions out the proclamation of peace in Manchester. I joined in She procession. There were many of the labouring classes present. We marulwil four ribrerd. I believe all the shop windows were shut in St. Ann's.iquare, and in the whole lisle which Slrs procession took. There were consi derably more shop windows shut no that occasion tliau on the 18th of Angnall. The former was a town holiday, the Liter was not so. 1 had my warehouse open all the slay.

I attended at the public meeting of the II:th August ; 1 came to :Manchester on the Friday before, the 9113 ; I went its a reporter to give an account of the nseelinx. Of the lath we met in a room in the New Bailey. I have relations in Manchester. I believe I only scut one report of the pruceedings to Loudon. 1 wrote a rep Jet which appeared in The Times, headed, " Aa. other Bounce of the Orator's." 1 Willi to St. Peter's field au early as eight o'clock in the morning, and was particular in my observation, during the whole of the day. It hen I went at eight there were hut few people on the hold ; about ten there were about two hundred and fifty per. a.'ns present. I have not given any depositions to your ; I refused to be examiurd by him or any other person. I saw the different parties arrive with music and 'in..; they walked as I saw the electors of York walk en Tuesday, with something of a military step. If I had not heard of this important trial, it would not make the slightest impression upon me. 1 have the notes I took on the ground, and also those I wrote in the New Bailey. (Veils s ih,ers looked over his notes). About half-past leeeu, the brat hotly of Reformers arrived on the ground with two banners, each surmounted by a cap of li !write ; they marched into the middle of the field, and a cart was brought to them. 1 saw other parties strive; they h.•bas rd iu the moat orderly manlier. Idu not conceive they bed; up their position in a military form. I saw nothing peeoliar in thew manner after they came upon the field. IN 'haps they were more orderly than any other meeting I hwl seen. I saw the party with the block flag sr- It was the Saddleworth and Mosley Union; they crow a ith music, awl a sort of step. 1 recollect when its v strived shunt the Wasting% Hwy played " Rule Bri taimia," soul " God save the King I do not mews to sty, that they alone played ; each party played it as they rirrieed. I think they also • played " See the Conquer. itie Hero comes." Some in each division had common walking sticks. I certainly did not see any with long staves, shouldered like muskets, and my attention being called to this subject tromp The Courier having stated that the party escort. ing Mr. Hurd on the Ode carried long staves fill to be used as pike-handles, I must have noticed them had they been there. I raw not the slightest matter which could excite alarm in rot breast for the safely of the town. 1 saw nothing in their coollset tending to riot and confusion; I had several con. vi 'Nations with persons in the Reform parties. They said all eiey wanted wan, a restoration of their rights, and that they were &sieves, above every thing else, to preserve order and frangiedlity. I felt it my duty to ascertain whether the re ports I heard were true or nut. I caw no acts of iusult or vio lence in Roy way. There were many women and children in the fr. 1. 1, and many of them came in iu the same order as the men. I saw two parties where the women were at the head of the procession. They all appeared to be dressed in their hest clothes. If I, es a reporter, bad seen or heard any thing bk. ty to ciente alarm, 1 should, as an Englishman, have fi It it my duty to acquaint the authorities with it. I left the remold for. the purpose of going to meet you. I saw you sorrounded by a crowd, near the Exchange; the people were herzaing. I applied to you to procure me a place on the hustings, which yon promised to do, and told me to keep urn. the carriage. You said, that king a reporter you would ;;are me a seat in the carriage. I held by the door, awl aatke.t close by the carriage; it stopped at the Star fon, wet Orr people hissed. Ido not know whether the car e isee tr./I.prd by accident or by design. You did not take the command, or direct the people to hiss ; you did nut get up in the marriage, nor did you hiss ; had you dune either meat have seen you. There was also sonic hissing at the cud of the street in which the Police office was. Yuu took sou part in it. Soon after this you called to Mr. eloorhouse, who was stn the opposite ride of the street, and he got into the carriage at your invitatiun. Oa arriving on the field the band played "See the conquering Hero comes." You were r. ,cited with the loudest cheering I ever heard in my You " bore your blushing hosours meekly," There via a black flag •1 the rod of the hustings, and you said it aas tel y foolish, or words to that effect. I recollect your cemplaining dint the hustings ware erected is tech a man na( that you had to speak against the wind. I followed tun upon the Westing., as did aeverelother persoes, among whom were several (maks. I think they were taken up in collar. itueuce of the pressure. I observed the banners to the mid dle of the crowd, and ooticed several women amongst the mess. The crowd itself was more demise and moss crammed together limo any I have ever seen before or The people kept cheering Johnson proposed that yore should be the aridness. There was no military appearance in the crowd. I could not pet ceive whether the people near the holdings had their arms locked or uut, though I was immediately over them. I saw 'erasing to keep the people from the linstinga; they were pr. ssing so close that you ceprewed your fears that they would upset it; I heard you eumplaia of this. Had those close to she hustings bad their arms locked, I asset have seen them. The crowd stood a. rived' generally du. 1 cannot say that the first row had their hats off. It is usual for the crowd to take their bats off whew the hero of the day arrives. I saw nothing of a warlike appearance about the nueting.—[Here witness read from his wiles the account of the meeting which he had sent to The Tisios.)—When the military appeared a considerable Waren was manifested in the outskirts of the 'wet The cavalry came up at a smart trot, halted before Mr. Buxton's, and flourished their swords over their heads.

The Paris Papers of Monday last contain some further interesting particulars respecting the pro. gress of the revolution in Spain. A perfect eon& deuce and unanimity seem moot happily to subsist between the KING and his people, which must tend to dissipate every anxious solicitude for the future tranquillity of the Peninsula. The moderation of the Constitutionalists during the recent arduous proceedings has been no lees conspicuous than their energy and firmness, and the KING fortu nately submitted to their claims before the violence of a civil war had acerbated the public mind, and given to political differences the active malignity of personal hostilities. It seems that even in the wannest effervescence of public feeling. excited by the hopes or apprehensions of • revolutionary struggle, the troops forgot nit the respect date to the Royal Person, and lost only did the revolted soldiers abstain from ail language that might he offensive to the KING, but they evinced the most remarkable solicitude for his personal safety; when the garrison of Madrid had resolved to join the national army in ease the KING should not accept the Constitution, they formed the de termination of leaving two regiments in the capital fur the sole purpose of protecting his MAJESTY •tid the Royal Family. This is an interesting and gratifying incident, which the philanthropist will remark with • feeling of pride, for the sake of poor human nature, and to which the future historian will turn with mingled surprise and pleasure, as au otairreact that not only dothi tinnolor to the Spanish people, but hat contributed to strip the revolution in Spain of those tiogry passions, which aliii.i•t of necessity have accompanied similar eventful petiods in the aerials •of othtr countries. when the. people have risen to shake off the btird..ti of slavery. BY iitt edict issued on' the gth instils'', the Kirsg oh SI'AIN announces that he ha. taken the math reqftered by the Constitution, in presence of a Previsional Junta, consisting of per.ons 'enjoy. ing the confidence of the waning, mid nominated ad interim, until the • regular installation of the General Curies. The Members of the Novi. rims' Junta are.—the Cardinal she Bourbon, •Pre vi lent; Don Francis Ballatoeros. Vice-l'resident ; the Bishop of Valladolid. Don Manuel Ahed QdrYlot, Don Manuel Dun Mateo Valdeasorcw, Don Vincent Sancho, Colonel of En. Outer.. the Count de Tebeeda. Don Francia Crespo de Triads 1). Bernardo Tarrins. and D. Ignatio Przuele. A second Edict appoints Din F. Billasteros Geuersl-iii-Chiefuf the army of the centre. The first of these decrees purport. to be issued from the Rove/ Press, and the second, published only a few hours after, (rum the National press. The edict which declared that all peruses impri soned on account of their political opinion should be set at liberty, also invites all Spaniards who may fur the amine cause have left thCir country, to re turn. This circumstance boa been officially uoti. tied by the Doke Dt SAN FIRDN•NDO, Chief Se cretary of State for Foreign Affair., to the Duke DC SAN CARLOS, his Catholic Majesty's Ambas %odor to the Court of England ; to the Duke Da FEN AN.NUNIZ, Ambassador to the Court of the Tuileries; and to all other Ambassadors and Mi nisters from Spain to foreign countries, that they should publicly apprise all Spaniards willing to re turn to their mauve country, that they hive re ceived order, to provide them with the necessary per•poortl. fur that purpose. Whet' the order was issued for giving liberty to the persons above mentioned, the malefactors con fined in the principal prison of Madrid hoped to take advantage of the opportunity to rft•ct their escape, and attacking the keepers, overpowered them, and killed them. The guard, however, for- Innately arrived, and fired upon the pirators. Nineteen of the miterable wretches were killed, and the remainder were returned to their imprisonment. The Municipal Body of Madrid, as it existed under the Cortes in the year 1814, has been re established, mid a deputation front this body was present when the KING took the oath to the Con stitution. This oath the Ktwo first took in the Council Chamber, and repeated it iu presence of the people. All the garrison of Madrid, in grand intrude, also swore to maintain the Coostitutioit, and Madrid was magnificently illuminated fur three successive nights, in manifestation of the general joy of the people. Reports prevailed in Paris that the King of SPAIN, after having sworn to observe the Consti tution, retired from the capital to San Ildeforiso; others stated that he had abdicated the throne, but these rumours are so utterly improbable, that we are doubtful whether we ought to have noticed them. The want of intelligence from Cadiz, has excited an apprehension that the cotutotinication between Cadiz and Madrid was interrupted. One of the P.Aris Papers announces that an in surrection has broken out at Lisbon. The Gazette de France says, that in the Lisbon Journals of the 4th Isere is no indication of any disposition, on tire part of the Portuguese, to disturb the existing Government; but who would feel any surprise at learning that the people of Portugal had resolved to imitate the example of their neighbours, and re lease themselves from their present wretched con dition ? We lately announced the illness of Lord Dust umi.—His Lordship, we regret to state, died on i'ssesday last, at his house in Arlington -street.— He is succeeded in his titles and estates by hie eldest son, the Hon. LAWRENCE DUNDAS, recently elected Representative for York, his sent for which city is thus Iwcorne vacant. The late Lord DUN DAs was Lord Lieutenant and vice-Admiral of Orkney and Shetland. Yraterday afternoon, about five o'clock, his MA. JESTY arrived at his palace in Pall-mall, from the pavilien at Brighton. Yesterday morning the Duke of YORK left town for Ostliiiiils. His Royal Highness returned to town in the evening, and dined with the Ea►l of SitArrtsaußY. Pr a LEOPOLD left Clarelnont for London yes terday afternoon.

Ile military arrived, instead of cheering, Wired, I ted, groeu• ed, and brandished their cudgels at them, I must have seen it ; but I saw nu each thing. If there had Nati a general resistance to the yeomanry on the part of the people, I must have seen it ; but I did nut see any attempt at re sistance, Examined by Mr. BARROW.-1 am the soil of the late Mr. Tyas, • very eminent proctor in this city.

Cross-examined by Mr. Srauhgrr—As the cavalry ad vanced the people made way. As the yeomanry advanced the constables appeared to be striking the people between the cavalry and them. From the time the cavalry ap peared to the period of Mr. Hones t did nut ex ceed six or placed myself under the protection of a constable. I was taken to the New Bailey. I saw no b,iekh r t s ur s t ones flying at any time. [Witness here descrhed the ivarrip• lions upon the differeot flags, as we have already given them.] The Huron female Reformers hail a flag, ton which were the words, " Let us die like men and out be sold like slaves," on one side, and on the other side " Ass coal Parliaments and Universal Suffrage." Mr. Hunt said be would invite me in, were it not that the carriage was full; but be afterwards took up Moorbuttse. I saw Carlile in the carriage. I did not then know Carlile, but have seen him since. I think Knight was also in the car riage. I do not recollect passing two military olfleers after we passed the Star lim. There was every symptom of popular disapprobation shewn both before the Star •nd the Police-office. I knew that the Star was the place where the Magistrates bad their head-quarters. 'The cheering was loud when the cavalry came. It seemed to me to say, " We arc come here for a specific purpose, and you shall not frighten us." It was not a cheer as if to say, " If you attack us, we will resist." If that be a cheer of defiance, then it was not a cheer of defiance in that sense, but it was in another. That is, it teemed to say, " We are here in the exccutiuu of a legal purpose, and you shall out prevent us from executing it." I think there were about 80,000 per. sons present. Many of the persons in the different divisions had walking sticks. I did not take particular notice of the Stockport division. I knew nothing of the meeting but what I learned by public advertisement. Reaexantined by Mr. Hunt—l wrote part of my report of the meeting lu the New Bailey, and part in Loudon whets I got to town. A part of what I had written being stale when I got to town, waa struck ont, and some observations reflecting very sisougly on the conduct of the yeuumury were softened down. I saw no such thing as • flag with • bloody dagger painted upon it. 11'hen the military appear ed, there was a disposition shewn in one part of the crowd to run away, and your cheer was recommended by you on that account. I heard you say to some one near you," The people are footling away—let us give three cheers to re- assure them." As far as I could discover, there was slot the slightest attack made by the people. It did not strike me that the people fell in behind the military to cut off their retreat, but to avoid the pressure they endured by be ing driven on each side; when the military had passed they weke pressed back to their former places. They merle • sort of rush, as if driven by the pressure. I did not nut observe the general flight of the people until after the yeouraury cum menced cutting at the flags and the people. I was struck at while out the hustings twine when the yeomanry came up, and I made no resistance. Mr. Hunt made no effort to promote resistance, quite the contrary; all his recumineudations were pacific. He did not think there was any biasing or hooting at the military—the people seemed quite orderly ; but there might have been hissing without his observing the eircuitistanee. lu answer to questions from the Learned Judge, he said he saw 'milling dune by the persons engaged in the meeting to produce disturbance. At the hooting amid hissing at the Police 01lice, Mr. Hunt and Mr. Johnson did not interfere. The hissing in that spot did nut last long. The carriage is whirli Mr. Hunt was appeared to have the bersea led ; they certainly gave no orders to stop the buries when before the Police (ace. Mr. Hunt was coutiuually and very earnestly exhorting the multitude to remain quite( ; after the appearance of the military, he entreated them lint to resist, and begged that if they wanted to take hint they might be permitted. He said this as the military advanced to the hustings. He thought that Mr. Johnson did put oat his hand to prevent the hissing at the Police °nice and at the Star, but he would not swear positively. Al half.past six o'clock adjourned until tomorrow. . . Several Witnesses remain still 10 be examined. The Trial is nut expected to terminate before !Saturday or Muuday next. 13111TISii PIIESS. SECOND. EDITION. PRESS OFFICE, Friday Morning, Sir o'clock. CONVICTION OF SIR FRANCIS BURDETT. (BY OUR EXPRESS.] LAICESTEIC ASSIZES, The trial came on yesterday before Mr. Justice Burr and a Special Jury, and in presence of one of the most numerous, etersot. and anxious a.- aeashlies ever seen in a County Court. Mr. BALGUAV opened the Pleadings, Serjeant VAUGHAN conducted the prosecution. After the ea•e was concluded for the Crown Mr. DEAM•It took an objection. which he conceived would be fatal to the information. The charge was for publishing the libel iu the county of Leicester. Of this there was no tfirect proof, as the envelope of the original letter had been lost. The absence of this part of the evidence was supplied by a man, who swore that he had seen Sir F. Briparr at Kirby, on the same day as the date of the letter. Still this. as the Learned Counsel contended, did not prove the act of publishing, as far as regarded Leicestershire, though the receipt of the letter and publication in London p► ved the act in Middlesex. After the question had been argued for a short time, Justice BEST over-ruled the objection on the ground that the date and place of the letter were prima fucie proof of the places of publics lion, which tt was for the Defendant, if he chose. to disprove. Sir BOIIDETT then entered on his defence. which he continued with great spirit and eloquence during thrre hours and a half. At half past Ave the Judge summed up, and the Jury after very little hesitation found the Baronet guilty. It is intended to move for arrest of judgment in the next term, on the grounds above stated. Sir. F. Buitotrirr was accompanied back to his inn by a la►ge concourse of people. who continued all the way io cheer him. When be arrived at the Three Crowns he addressed them f►om the win dow, exhorting them to retire peaceably, and thanking them for the sympathies they exp►essed in his favour. We regret that from the lateness of the hoar we must defer a full report of this Iris! until to- morrow. CITY BUSINESS. A Court of Common Council was held yesterday at Guild hall for the general dispatch of public busimas. After the last proceedings had beeu read, time Lord Mayor reported that a small deputation of the Court attended upon his Majesty, at Carlton Palace, and presented the Address of Coadulence awl Congratulation, and his Lordship delivered in his Majesty's moat gracious Answer, which was read, and after some observations trlative to the Sheriffs attending on a Sunday, for the appointment of time time fur the Court to present the Additive, the Answer was unanimously ordered to be entered on the Junrnels. The Commission of Sewers, Lamps, and Pavements of the Ciiy of Loudon for the eusuing year was sealed, and the Commissioners accounts fur the last year were presented, and ordered to be printed. . . A Petition was premised from Mr. Holmes, in respect of some expenses helocurred as Deputy Bailiff of the Kiiruiigh of Southwark, which was deferred to the Committee for General Purposes. Mr. D. Kay was appointed a Governor of Bridewell and Bethlem Hospitals. The Committee appointed to consider the petition of the persons summoned fur a Jury at the Adjourned Sessions for London, in December last, complaining of the nim-atteude mice of the Aldermen, reported upon their reference with case, and the opinion of Counsel, taken under their directions; which being read, a loll; debate emoted between Mes.rs. Oldham, Savage, Sir C. S. Hunter, Aldermen Wood, Faveli, and others. The Currt finally agreed with the Report, and it was ordered to be printed at length in the Minutes of Proceed ings. Upon the motion of Mr. Alderman Wood, a reference was made to the Militia Committee, to consider the pro priety ofreducint tbe two regiment• of Lumina militia to one regiment only, and to confer with hi• Majmay's Mi niatera and the Court of Lieutenancy on the subject if ost ensory. Sir William Curtis having entered the Court, Mr. Oldham addressed the Lord Mayor upon a question of privilege, and requested to be informed by the Hun. Baronet, whether the statement, as appeared in the Papers, of his speech at the conclusion of the electioa, stating the Court to be led by a demagogue, a bully, and a priest, was correct o► not ? Sir William replied, the words he made use of were, a bully, a demagogue, and a Jesuit. Mr. Oldham then moved a Resolution, reprehending the same, which was unanimously agreed to, and ordered to he advertised. The Lurd Mayor laid before the Court a letter from the Hon. Mrs. Dumber respecting the restorations she bail made in the bust of Lord Nelson, executed aad presented by her to the Corporation ; and it was referred to the Committee of City Lands to restore the maid bust to its pristine dug...- lied situation. The Court agreed to a Standing Order, that no Member speak more than once uu one question, except iu reply. . . They then proceeded to consider the Report of the Bridge. horse Committee respectiug the liability of the Bridle boast.
