Finding neither of any avail, they proceeded towards this town, their numbers increasing as they proee r edrid along. Instead of entering by tbe usual road, they visited several houses and factories, where they broke all before them. They theft returned to E Ige- ICY, in number about 3,000. On perceiving them l'om the cottage coining the down road, I assembled tile children and nurse in the parleur; and fastkThed e the wi n do ws an d d oors.; the gardener presently 'rushed into the room, and conjured us to fly that moment, If we wished na save our lives. It . was Ivith difficulty T could speak ; but each snatching Op a child, we escaped at the great gate just in time to avoid the rabble. We proceeded to Mrs. Sylieb*-4 ; but before we reached our destination, we savvjmr cottage enveloped to flames. Eery thing, I- have, since learnt,, was consumed by the fire, and nothing left but the shell. The rimb next proceeded to the faelory, where •they broke the windows, destroyed the looms, and c& all the,work which was in pro gress, and having finished this mischief, they repeated the three cheers which•they gait on seeing the flames first burst from our dwelling. Their cry was ‘, now for Sykes but before they could accomplish their 'wicked p ur p ose on our friend, some military arrived, ac companied by Mr. Turner, whose exertions. hav'e ' been indefatigable. He had been much &stressed, ru seeing our house fl ameie :;rte! .::! teen nobody. to inform him of our escape. The f e male s of Mr. o Ykes's family are gone to Manchester for security, Whilst we have taken refuge here. The post-chaise i n which we came was escorted by tour of the. Scotch Greys. The rioters were headed by t tE'o men, dres , ed i n women's clothes, who were called General Lucid' s Iviyes. We are again lett without apparel but such as the kindneis of our friends supplies.

He afterwards said, " I am Lieutenant Wise, of the Royal Navy, arid if you do not notice thiS as a Gen tleman ought to do, I will p ast y ou g as a coward.'!

Mr. Serjeant BEST stated this to be an aelion to recover 50- guineas, as a JTmuneration for certain attendances upon the defendant, by the plaintiff, who is a Surgeon. The defendant was dangerously wounded in a duel, and the plaintiff was called in, and attended him with the utinDst - assiduity, fiorn dip 17th of December until the 23d of January fol lowing, during which time be was frequently in the habit - of vishing birn by night - as well 53 by day.— Fot such incessant labour, the Learned Serjeant be liLved.the Jury would not conceive the sum demand ed at all exorbitant., He knew- not what might be the defence, set up, but certainly none could be made consistent with the honour which, it must, °he supposed, the defendant had risked his life to defend. Witnesses were then called in support of the case, froin whose testimony it appeared that the defen dant had -been Clerk to a Mr. Colquhoun, a yeast seller, a bankrupt, with whom the duel was fouht; he was shot through the lungs, and was cons;dered in the most imminent danger, when the - Plainlitf was called in, who, from the danger of the patient, obtained the assistance of Mr. Gatliile, .Leai::rer on Anatomy to the Royal Academy. It furtht..r appear dli,irirtiffliatiacCoMpan;ek: it7r.Colquhoun to the ground, in order to afford his proleSsional assii:tance, if required. - • Mr. Serjeant CLATToN contended that, inns. ml;c11 as the. plaintiff had; by aceonipanyinp, the de fendant -to the groi,rnd where the duel took place, been rialuallt guilty of an illegal aa, he could not recover'the sum for which he - sudd, or any remune ration for his.Serv;ees. Sir. JAMES MANSFIELD said, he, would reserve (his point: Mi. Serjeant CLAYTON further contended, that the plaintiff had contracted with the father of the defendant for his cure, ind therefore could have no claitn,against the son. In support of this 'argument, he produced a letter of the plaintiff's, .direCte&to Mr. Steele, sen. in which he called upon him for the remuneration- for . .his professional attendances on :his, .son. An account was also produced in which the plaintiff only demanded 25 guineas for his trouble. Sir JAMES MANSFIELD here sent a note to Mr, Serje4nt BEST, the obje& of which, we understand, wag to sugge,t the expediency of compromising the A conversation then took place between the father of the plaintiff, Mr. Serjeant CLAYTON, and Mr. Serjeant BEST, which terminated in 4 - resolution to withdraw a Jurur. . • On Tuesday, last a p oo r b o y was murdered in a Wood, .near Woolwich, by a ruffian, who having robbed his master, and being plowed, fled for re fuge to the Wood, 'where being , sen by the boy, the latter .scre;uned with'terror of him, on which the villain seized and strangled him ; 'he was appre hended, soon after, when he'coniessed that he' was nearly three hours in - pet petrating this horrid ,deed,!

PEASANTRY OF IRELAND 'rhe Order ior suirmiortinz their LorZitihips read, - Earl Stains Ore rose to bring forward the propo sition of which he had given notice ,on the above He said, the topic he was aho_intn bring the considerationaq their Lera - ships Nvas.one of the very first importance. It may .be thonqht, however,. that oft sit-eb a sunjeCt it wee: to trouble their Lordships with a long natal- 401 e ; but he could, assure them, his intention was directly them verse, and for ,this reason, that the snhjett was suflii:iently clear and• obvious_ in itself, both as to the disease and the remedy, to requiie any other than a short explanation. The evil of which be had to coruplain, and for which he that day brought ward a temperate and .well considered measure as a proposed redress, was, in point of injustice, to be - equalled by nothing but the horrors of the Slave Trade ; and its point of inhumanity, it was nearly equal, if not superior to it; and in point of iinpolicy,• as respeaino Ireland, it was certainly greater than the,Slave Trade with respe& to Africa. lie must, if consistent in his conduct as referal/le to that ques tion, reprobate the system, which he would endea vour t.o explain, as detestable in the extreme. many of their Lordships, who did not look into the law, or were uninformed ass.to the praalice which preVarled in some parts of Ireland, what he was ..`.rout to stare, would scarcely appear credible. They could scarcely believe, that under the - law as it reeve exists in that country, that al! those who Were called the middle men in Ireland, had it in their power to distrait) for all their respective rents upon the same estate. Such was the rein and vlistress which it tit/; •, - YDn'et•- of thseess tren that an occupying tenant r)34 he made to ply al ntiost'all the land was - worth, and yet another per gon may come souse upon him for another rent due_ before that which he had contras ed to pay. The contetnplation of the injustice which may be coat 'flitted under such a s)stem; was enough to harrow up the soil. Whenever any one proposed a remedy fur an alleged grievance, it was his duty explicitly to state' the nature of the grievance, as well as th - of his prope(sed temedy. In the opinion he enter tained on thiS subject, he was - fortified by others conversant on the sobjeal, particularly , by the semi- . ments expressed by a very able lawyer in that coun try (whose name he was not authorised to state), ia his correspondence with another Gentleman of the profession. He considered the subject, and treated of it precisely in the smite manner in which he re garded it himself. - The expressed opinion of that Gentla'man was, that by the relative situation of land lords and tenants, and especially with reference to the middle men; the tenant of the land, by actual occupation, may be distressed for rent 16 an amount far beyond that which'h6 had Conttaded to. pay, 1.3 - Ibis it appeared, that both parts ct his proposition were correct; in the first place, the tenant was has ble to pay far berood the rent for which he had contr.teled, and secondly, this process, by beingen forced by several of these persons, the - ruin and n- ] ;. e . chief which may ensue is inconceivable. Eet their Lord Ships figure to themselves. the case and situatiun of a poor min, with a starving family round him, driven - from his cottage in a country where there were no poor rates, -The grievance and misery were - indescribable. ;In England, Where there are poor rates, every individualtn the parish wotald Wine the person who acted with such severity., Consider th-e situation of the houseless peasant of - metal o l d, go i ng from cottage to cottage, as it were, begging relief'; consider the of ect of such in a (*nits- where haea a man would -be received as one of the family by chat exc e ll ent and, warm-hearted, roele; considec the etfetisicif spell adolefill tale. of inkistiCe.
