The exatnihation al Preston, Hooper, edshatatt, Carter, and Oatable, at the Mansion Hawse, did not take place yesterday as was expected, but they were all in waiting in the custody of the officets. 'The public examination of the rioters is post rled until ‘Vednesday next. Vrom all the cirrurastances which have trans. pire4l, and which for the present are very pro perly known only to the Government and sow: of the Magistrates, it WAS yesterday stated that the plan was muck more general and extensive than was at first imagined. The atteippt at insurrec tion was certain as well as the being provided, with arms. This lane' fact is not only establish ed by the declaration of some of the parties in custody, hut by the accounts delivered from seve ral quarters of the purchase of shot and powder on the tnorning of Monday. Mr. Hawkins, of Ilishopsgate-street, in part;cular, disposed of quantity of powder and small tihnt early that day, but his servants-, who supplied the persons who purchased these articles, had of corrrse no appre hension of their design,.'

Hooper, who states Preston to be the instigator and great maeldnist of the cnn spiracy, has declared that the two tVatsons, him self, and Preston, were in concert togeth , *.in Spa-fields on the morning of Monday. By some accident, lioweVer,•when the patly left that place, with the younger Watson tit their heed, for the purpose Of advancing into the city, they lost sight of each other, but Hooper after Wards saw the former in the midst 'of the mob in Cheapside.— Preston aka acknowledges that he was himself with the patty in the Nlinories at three o'clock:, r e latter fact, indeed, can be attested by A wit I)etiS who saw him there,' and who, from the dr ennistanee of Preston's being lame, is more cer tain of the fact Another Gentlenran eau speak to the unionof Preston, the %liaisons, and noopqr, in Spa-fields. A man named Thistleton, also, it is discovered, was most active In' the various scenes of the riot:Ts, but he is not yet secured. We ste'ed yesterday that two lancets were found in the shop of Mr. Be , kw ith since the commksion of the 'outrage on Monday. 'Upon a close exitini• trati9o at these instruments yesterday, the name at Watson was di•covered legible upon the inside of each. Mr. Beckwith attended the Mansion instrie- yesteiday, as did his boy, Jan Boilerts, who was hi the shop with Mr. Platt at the mo ment tbe't ioters entered. Ile is an inteiligent lad, describes most accurately the person of the voting man who shot Mr. Platt (corresponding entirely ‘eith the-person of young Watson) ; and also of the man, a sailor, who was must active in plundering the shop of arms. Roberts, 1110 boy, is to be taken to the Compter, where he may possibly identify some of the parties in custody, thii morning.

Letters also were discovered addressed to Preston, with the signature of Runt; hut pone of these, as we have Jearnt, are of s criminal nature. For some Java previous to the last meeting in Spafields, Wat son , nevernppeared at his lodging: in Hytie-street, and itislconjectured that this active revolutionist was busily employed night and day elsewhere in arranging with Hooper, Preston, and nt her chiefs of this contemptible, though desperate piot, that plan.of plunder anti devastation which, untorta nately, succeeded to is certain extent on Monday last. There are various conjectures as to the plate of retreat of Watson : and It is the least probable of them, that he is at present on board of some American vessel with a view to,escape to Elitorrean " gcnersl 1104'4."
