THE BRITI SH PRESS. LONDON, MONDAY. AUGUST e 3, 1119. RIOTS RENEWED AT MANCHESTER-MORE PERSONS KILLED AND WOUNDED. We have received advices from Manchester, down to Saturday morning. The spirit of vengeance ruched by the conduct of the yeomanry in the breast+ of their townsmen, on Monday last, we fear ,c I 1 not be easily appeased. On Friday evening the Iteformers assembled in great force at New Cross. presumed from their conduct, that they me ditate-3 some act of violence. The military were called out, and ou their arrival we learn • serious conflict ensued, in which two of the populace were killed, and missy were dangerously wounded. The Reformers then dispersed, but on the same even in; they assembled again, and broke the win doss of several persons whose conduct had rendered them particularly obuoxiOus to the Re forniets. Great a pprehensions were entertained of renewed violence in the course of the night, but it passed over in comparative quiet...— There was • report yesterday that Mr. HUNT had heeis committed to Lancaster gaol, on • charge of high treason. The report was premature : he was brought up with eight others, including two women, before a fun bends of Magistrates, on Friday, when. after an examination, they were all remanded, 011 a charge of high treason. in the event of their I committal, which may he confidently anticipated, that offence rot being bailable, the Reformers must choose a new President for their future meetings. An [ogees' has been held on the bodies of three persons, killed in the attack of the yeomanry on tile populace on Monday last, and a verdict of Accidental Death has been pronounced in each case. The following are extracts from private letters:— • MANCHESTER, AUGUST 20, " New Mlle" Court-Hume, Twelve ()Thick. " The following nine persons were brought up thi• mu►uiuc, before a full Bench of Magistrates, and remanded on a charge of high treason : " Heart Rost, .1. Johnson, J. T. Saxton, John Knight, Janes lionetwiese, Robert Jones, Robert Wild, Elizabeth Wrist, sod Sneak illsraresms. •• Nine 'o'clock, p. os.—The Reformers have as sembled this evening at New Cross, if possible in greater numbers than yesterday. A spirit of re venge was general amongst them. On the ar rival of the military a dreadful couflict ensued, in which two of the Reformers fell, and many carried to the Infirmary seriously wounded. On being dt•ltersed' they again assembled in Tilt street and its neighbourhood, where they totally demolished the windows of a Mr. CREATES, and many other persons, who have rendered themselves ritnioxiuus to them. They were proceeding to greater ravages, hot were prevented by the timely arrival of the yeomanry. Great apprehensions are entertained for the safety of some of the cotton factories, but every possible precaution has been taken fur their safety." " SATURDAY MORNING. •4 The It have been more ■t rest during the ',iglu than was la►t evening anticipated. and are less numerous than thry were; but it is feared they will egoist assemble in the after part of the day." Paris Papers of Wednesday and Thursday last have arrived at our Office. A trial affecting the lilserty of the pens oCcnpied the Assize Court of Poi. on Wednesday, in which M. de MARTAIN VILLE, a distinguished writer in the French capital, nay accused by the widow of the late Marshal Bituax with haring, in a Paper entitled Le Dra pears Blase. defamed the character of her d • d husband. M. de MarraINVILLE defended him self, and justified the character he had given of the Marshal, by referring to the principal acts of that General's life. His justification was sufficient, for the Jury unanimously pronounced his acquittal. The Grand Duke of Bantu has remitted, in some slight degree, the strictness of the previous law against the public press. By an edict of the late Duke, published the 18th of October, 1810, only one public journal was allowed in the Grand Ducky; but by a late Ordinance, licenses are offered to id I persons desirous of undertaking the publication of a journal. Political papers, however, shall for the present he published wily its the towns of Carte -1 trite, Manheim, Fribourg, and Constance, and even in these towns the permission of meddling with po. litics is confined to only rate journal. This strict t.ess would seem unnecessary, for over all journals the previous censorship will still exercise its pre ventive vigilance. Marshal Sourer, Duke of Dalmatia, appears to have risen with wonderful rapidity in the good graces of the Court of the Tbuilleries. He has already, since his return to France, had the honour of a closet conference with the Kum, and he has been graciously received by the Duke and Duchess of Asnoutmeit.

SPENCER, recently arrived et Portsmouth from the Mediterranean, left Malta on the 9th of July, with Commissioner Wormier. to inspect the Naval Arsenal at Gibraltar, which place she left on the 28th ultimo.

Minister from the Court of Wis. temherg, with their respective suites, embarked on hoard the Ganyntede, and were landed at Ancona, I Trieste, and Venice, on affairs relative to their several Governments. Malta and its dependencies were healthy, and trade was beginning to wear the appearance of activity. Gibraltar and Spain enjoy perfect health, notwithstanding the plague still continues to rage on the coast of Barbary. more par ticularly at Tangier, Tetuan, Fez, &c. and there is no doubt, from the excellent regulations adopted and enforced by General Doe, who commands at the Rock, and the proper Authorities, but these places will be preserved from its 'pestilence. The garrison of Gibraltar was never in better health, there being but few cases in the hospitals; and the Royal Artillery, under the command of Colonel WORSEET, had not a sick man when the Garry- nude sailed. The squadron of his Majesty the King of the NETHERLANDS, under the command of Admiral VAN BRAUM, consisting of one ship of the line, two frigates, and one corvette, was refitting at Malta. —The American ship Franklin, of 80 guns, Commodore STUART, was at Gibraltar. It ap pears a misunderstanding had taken place between the Commodore and the Captains of his squadron, relative to some proceedings at a Court Martial, in consequence of which the whole of them (the Cap tains) had been suspended, and the command of their ships given to their First Lieutenants, until the pleasure of the American Government was known. The Vengesir, 74. Capt. F. L. MAITLAND, C.B. haring been fully manned and equipped for foreign service, will sail this day from Portsmouth for Ply. mouth to join the Superb, 74. The Hyperion, Capt.

Captain THOMAS WHITS (a) is up. pointed to the Superb. Two ►ubscriptions have been proposed among the inhabitants and vi►itors of Brighton; one for the relief of the itumble victims of the late events at Manchester, and the other to enable the parties aggrieved to bring the question of right sad of damages before a Jury at Westminster.—(Brigkon kleruld,j A placard was posted up on Saturday forenoon, and circulated ■t the Meeting at the Crown and Anchor, deferring the Kennington Meeting to a future day, and calling a public Meeting of the Metropolis in Smithfield, on Wednesday next.—The fullowMg is a copy of the placard : • UNIVERSAL CIVIL AND RELIGIOUS LIBERTY.

Previous to the former Meeting at Smithfield, we stated at the time that the LORD MAYOR had represented himself able sod willing to prevent it, if be had the sanction of Government, but that the latter declined any interference. It would be cer tainly inure humane to prevent such meetings, how ever peaceeble, orderly, end comititutiorial their purpose and proceedings - limy be. than to suißit them to assemble. and then send a military force to cut them down. If, on the other hand. the people cannot assemble in • peaceable and con*titutionel manner is etpress their grievances, the right of petition is taken sway by violence, and ilie people hold their lives cud liberties at the discretion. of military power.

The Council continued in deliberation fur above an hone , and a half. The ArrottnEx and SOLICITOR•GENEEAL were its attendance dur ing the sitting of the Cabinet Ministers. The conduct of the Radical Reformers and their public Meetings., it is presumed, constituted the subject of their delib vinous. Viscount CASTLEREAGH came to town on Satur day morning, from his seat at North Cray. lie Kent, to attend the Council which was summoned ou Friday. After the breaking up of the Council, the Noble Viscount set off from the Foreign Of fice on his return to North Cray.
