To evade the punishment to vo,i c h they a pprehend they would be liable for offering them fur sale, they now take a bundle of straws with them, and roar out lustily—" Come buy my straws—long straws—good smoking straws, a halfpenny each." There is of course an understanding between buyer and seller, and the porchager of a straw is presented with a sheet of sedition gratis. • Anioriz the lower orders, nothing like work was thoe t tlit of all the morning.

DISTRICT ORDERC, ISSUED BY SIR JOHN BYNG, ON SATURDAY LAST, FROM HIS HEAD QUARTERS AT PONTEFRACT. 0. 0. Head Quartets, Pnutefract, Aug. 7, 1819. iliajorGeneral Sir John Byng hat to acquaint Commanding Officers of Regiments in the District, that au attempt either has or will he made, to cir culate amongst them, free of expense, Papers of a most . mischievous description. One instance has already. been reported, where a man delivered such to a,Corporal and Private of the 88th Regi ment, who immediately, with a decision and feel ing highly creditable to thermelves and to the Regiment, took them to their Cominauding ..Officer. The Major-General having long known most of the corps now under his command, having served with them and shared in. their dangers, their faignes and privations, and having witnessed a long career of conduct highly honourable to them- selves and benfrficial to thir country, has such , implicit .contidence in all, that so far from pre veutiiig ;he circulation, he would himself read .them to every regiment in the district, without a • fear that such publications could have any effect in withdrawirg a single* individual from his duty. But as the intention in writing and distributing these papers arnongit the military is so bad, as to rtirit the highest pnnidiment the law can inflict, he trusts that every Officer, Non-commissioned Officer, and solttier, will consider it his ditty, not wily to deliver such papers to their Commanding Officer, bilt . endeavotirto mark the person or per sons circnlkeing them, ,o far as to, be able to give evidence against him or them. And Sir John Byng will give a reward of ten guineas to any Non-commissioned Officer, drummer, or soldier, upon every conviction, by their .evidence, of any person or persons guilty 6f Offence, to which the Major-General doubts nut a regimental re- Ward will be added.' It sli4old be genirally known, that there are a act of men, destitute alike of character and pro. ": 110 , too idle to work themselves, are sub. 'si . sting" upon the hard earnings of the poor, ex• ttitet'ecl front them upon some pretence for sub scriptions of pennies, and in sotne instances, larger slims, the amount of which is never ac counted fo'r to those who subset lin, but is spent anior4 a few ution themselves, and in the print and circulation of such papers as those alluded to. Commanding Officers will be pleased to have this Order immediately anti generally made known ' throughout their respective Regiments. J. IIYNG, Major-General. WARWICK. The following has been communicated as a Sketch at ►he Address of Chief Baron RICHARDS to . the Grand Jtiry at Warwick Assizes : Chief Baron RICHARDS—" Gentlemen of the Grt►nd Jury, I have nothing - of .consequence to crate to. you upon this occasion, and therefore tv i!! not detain you from your• important dt►tie3.

'[l'his anodes to the indictments preferred atr,ainst Me\ssrs. Cart— wright, Wooler, Ethnonds,'&c. who were present at the Birmingham meeting when. Sir t.

A n:nnerous meeting of them (principally in the cotton branch) was held in the Forest, to consider what , measures ought to be folopted for obtlining relief from their present suderings, in consequence of the lowness of wages, &c. when the following Resolutions were unanimously adopted 1. That it appears to this meeting, th . 4t,. the great and lamentable depression of wages haS pt in cipAlly arisen, not from a desire on the part of the hosiers to reduce the stocking-maker to that misery and wretchedness which he now endures, hut from a competition to undersell each other in' the market. 2. That the reducing the wages of the mecha nic is at all times to be deprecated as injurious to the peace, happiness, and prosperity of the great body of the people ; for, as the great body 01 the people become poor and wretched, in the same proportion must the consumption of our mano- Noures be lessened. 3. That this Meetinz do consider, under exist ing circumstances, that it is the duty of the frame-work knitters of this county to co-operate with the trade of Leicestershire, and cease working till soch time as they can obtain such a price for their labour as will enable theta to nkin , ain them selves and families without the assistance of the pari►h. 4. That as an advance of wages is expected to take place on *the 7th of August, it is hoped that parishes will make the necessary arrangements, and find other employment or relief for such as cannot ob►ain it. s►. That a vote of thanks be given to those gen tlemen of Leicester an&t Leice.tershire who have so nobly come forward in support of the distressed workmen of that town anti county. THE HAMILTON WEAVERS. MILTON, AU. . 7 --In g of an ap pliHcAaiion from the weoavers, stat conse ing oence that upwards of 500 looms were already idle in the town of Hamilton ; that the number' was' continually in creasing; that the petitioners were literally in a state of starvation, and craving relief," a 'meeting of the heritors and kirk-session of the parish was held. The meeting was attended by two of, the weavers, Witt) spoke f . or themselves and their fel low-sufferers ; they expresied their gratitude,to :he meeting for what had been done, and, in particular, to Mr.‘ Brown, fur the guest per sonal tenable he had been at ; and they in very modest and decent terms, suggested for the consideration of the meeting, the great number at unemployed old men, women, sod boys, who would be left unprovided foi by this arrangement. An assessment was . propo•ed as the best means of meeting the contingency, and etitralizing the'bur den at the same time. Mr. Brown, on the other hand, proposed, thn't it should he door by volon tory contribution : he deprecated an assessment upon two grounds-1 sr, if an assessment wete to be laid on at all adeqoate . to tLe occasion, it ,would iu a great measure legalize the claims of the weavers to support trom the heritms, claims of the same description might he expected at all times, and from all classes of itidividnals t h a t co u ld not get cmploym, ; if the assess ment were once laid on, the he l rifors and kirk sessioo could not consistently remove it until the pressure was removed ; and if the pres sure increased, they could not consistently refuse to increase the relief - also ; once laid ,on, there was no saying when or where it would stop ; in short, that it tended to introduce the Englitib s y s t e m of Aioors', laws, with all its grievances; and these were so overwhelming, that (Mr. Brown stated the tact as consistent with his know ledge) some of the proprietors in England bad ac tually surrendered their estates for the payment of the ;sows' rates, which in some cases absorbed no less than fifteen shillings in the pound, and the evil continually increasing. And 2d, he (Mr. .Brawn) was unwilling that the weavers should be degraded. either in their own esrima tion or in that of the public. In times . of great mercantile embarassment, the capitalists had often applied for and obtained aid from Governmeot.; .that aid - had checked the natural . progress of the evil, without injuring the character of the capitalist ; and why should not the operatives, in -the same way, be allowed to partake of the bene ficence of the community, without degrading themselves to the rank of paupers ? Seotimen have an abhorrence of pauperism far beyond what is felt by any other nation, and be was anxious that this distinguished part of the national character should remain unimpaired.. Mr. Brown said, be thought a considerable part of the distress complained of had been occasioned by the tepid and continued increase of the uti.uher .0.1 the weavers. The speculations of a few Glasgow merchants bad withdrawn the agri cultural and other manual labour from our own superabundant popttlatiOn, and thrown it in= to the hands of Irishmen. As many of these Anerchants.had enriched themselves by the labour of the individuals so thrown upon the palish, he proposed that the meeting should.recommend the Weavers to the peculiar attention of _these manu facturers. As a means of ptoviding farther for the present evil, he proposed" that every indivi dual who occupied a tarot of any size slinuld take one or more of the.boys to he employed during the harvest ; and he strongly, recommended, ru both parties a continuance of that employment, at a means of striking At the very rOot of he evil. Ike held in his han;l a list of farms in the parish more than sufficient for the present emergency, and he said he would di) every 114114 poveer to . persitade the tenan'ts on. the Hamilton estate to go into the Measure, if it was thought advisable. Mr.brown's'excellent views of the mat ter were generally adopted by *the Meeting, and Committees Were apriointerrfor the purpose of car rying them into 'effect. Meantitne it is pleasing to learn, that 40 of The Hainilton weavers are at work upon the south-side of Bothwell-bridge, near the site.of their former operations '(at the time of the ,strike) and . on the very morning 'Of the meeting, about SO of -then) set o ff with their kits ,tha ac coutrement's to work on the public road near Can net Dyke-head. Arrangements are making for sending out more in otherquarters., while a sub scription is going on for the•ohlmen, women, Fte. and in this way the willing but ty , employed part of the community in Hamilton parish have a fair chance of being provided for, for several mOnths to tonic.
