By six O'clock the crowd had increased 3,000 or 4,000, when they broke up, and set off to liar n. It is supposed that, after having pulled out he niugs there, they return through Todmorden, accompl;sh the business in that place. At eight ,a Friday morning a party of 500 or 600 marched into Rochdale from Heywood; but, finding themselves too late to join the Bacup party, they advanced to Black Pits (three miles from Rochdale), a mill belonging to Mr. Turner, of Haslingden, with the intention of turning out the hands. During Thursday night everything went off very peaceably. ROCIIDALE,-BACUP, AND TODMORDEN. At six o'clock yesterday (Friday) morning, a very large meeting was held 'on Cronkeyshaw Moor. De legates were sent thence to various parts in York shire, also to Colne, Padiham, &c. A procession of ,OUO individuals went to Bacup, where the hands in the cotton and woollen mills, and various workshops, were compelled to give up work. After holding another meeting, the procession marched to Todmor den, where the hands in most of the mills had ceased working, and the others were then stopped. At three o'clock yesterday (Friday) all was quiet in Rochdale; persons were gonigto various shops begging for bread, and gorne'dematided money.

The speakers advised the meeting to be peaceable, and united in obtaining, the wages of 1840, and to work only ten hours per day. The procession was formed about seven o'clock, and the party proceeded to Rochdale, forcing all persons to go with them whom they met on the road. At three o'clock in the after noon of yesterday, all was quiet. The whole of the operatives in the mills, and machine and other work shops, were at a complete stand. A few special con stables were sworn in.on Thursday evening. MIDDLETON. At half-past seven o'clock, on Wednesday evening, a number of silk weavers from Hollinwood and Fails- Worth arrived in Middleton, and shortly after upwards of a- thousand persons assembled in the Market-place. The delegates from the above places said there would be a meeting the day following on White Moss ; and, if the Middleton people did not unite in turning out for the wages givi. in .1840, they would compel them to give up working. At twelve o'clock on Thursday morning, a largo body of men, many of them colliers, arrived from 'White Moss, where a meeting had been held. They stopped at Messrs. Jackson and Royle's silk mill, turned the steam off, and the hands were instantly turned out of the factory. The crowd then proceeded to the dyeworks of Mr. Beattie, and Messrs. Stone and Kemp's silk warehouse, Mr. Gill's cotton mill, and the extensive print works of Messrs. Schwabe :;cud Cc; Here, also, the engines were stopped, the steam turned off, and the hands ceased working. At five o'clock in the evening, several thousand persons from ,Heywood, Rochdale, and other places, entered the town. • At Mr. Joseph Fielding's shop a large quan ofloaves were given. A public meeting was held .1 the Market-place, when it was resolved to turn out, Ti(l to meet every morning and evening, and remain out until the same • prices for silk weaving and the sari - iv wages to other operatives were given as in 1840. At eight o'clock on Friday morning, a numerous -met ting was held in the Market-place, when three silk weavers, named Ward, Smithies, and Ogden, were appointed to go to Leigh, and request the weavers there to join them in the general strike. Ward said, he- hoped that particular notice would be taken of every one who worked, and their names given to the Oltihain people. A proce3sion was formed at ten consistirg of about 2,000 persons ;. they T/1:1!•,.1,. , 1 through Tonge, and went to the extensive ;,l c works of Messrs.

(From the Sunday Times.) MANCHESTER, SATURDAY EVENING. We are glad to have it in our power to report that the town generally is this morning more tranquil than it been on any day since the outbreak o the riot. The interruptions to the general tranquillity to-day have hitherto been slight and few in number. This; is, doubtless, attributed, in some degree, to the very huge number of persons who have, with the ut most promptitude, come forward and enrolled them selves as special constables. At t4e same time the circumstances that none of the mills, except the 3‘.dessra. Birley's and Messrs. Kennedy's, as far as we can learn, have attempted to start work to-day, has no doubt mainly led to this temporary lull. STOPPAGE OF WORKMEN. early as half-past seven in the morning a mob of the usual character made an onset on the bricklayers and labourers employed at the new buildings in Pool Field (the same as were attacked yesterday), and com pelled tnem to cease work. t other buildings in the town and neighbourhood, where masons or brick layers are employed (including the new church in Stratford-roads), the same course of intimidation has been successfully practised. TRADES' MEETING AT TIIE HALL OF SCIENCE. Another seditious meeting, under the guise of a meet ing of trades' delegates, has been held at the Socialists' hail this morning, at eleven o'clock. There was a very crowded attendance. A person, whose name we could not learn, but who was said to be the foreman of Mr. Worral's dye. works, in Salford, was in the chair. There was a great deal of wrangling in the course of the proceeding, but ultimately a resolution, pledging the men not to return to work till the people's Charter was obtained, was carried by a'.out three-fourths of the meeting. STATE OF THE SUBURBS. Up to the hour at which we write the out-towns have been less infested by bands of marauders, on the pretence of asking alms than on either of the preceding days. Most of the shops keep their shutters up, but open their doors. In the middle of the town all the shops are open as usual, and appear to be doing their regular business. The business of such of the markets held this day has been allowed to proceed, we believe, without the slightest interruption. OUTRAGE AT WILMSLOW. About noon information reached town of a very daring and riotous attack, which was made yesterday on Mr. Gray's mill, at Quarry-brook, near Wimslow. Near 500 men came there, and after demanding ad mittance, forced opened the door, and the whole body marched into the lower part of the mill, and did con siderable damage before they could be ejected. Our informant states, that they all appeared to be perfectly sober. They then went to the village shops and the bakehouses, and seized all the bread they could lay their hands on. We have not heard that any of them have been secured. SATURDAY, ONE O'CLOCK. —The temporary lull —for we fear it can only prove a temporary one—has given the authorities time to breathe, and to provide more efficiently against any future breach of the peace. Already have more than three thousand constables been sworn in ; and in the out-townships—Broughton, Cheetham, Chorlton upon-Aledlock, Hulme, and Ardwick—the, under standing that parties wishing it shall be called upon to serve in their own neighbourhoods only, has had an excedingly beneficial effect in inducing respectable householders and tradesmen to come forward and take upon themselves the onerous duties. BURY. here, as in every other place in the district, the turn•-nuts from other towns came in considerable num b('‘rs, and went round the mills, factories, and other Worki:, demanding that they should be stopped, and th e hauls dinnissed. This demand wag generally complied with at once, and all the establishments of the town and: neighbourhood have ceased working ; and the :.`.rents are full ofidle and discontented people, about in groUps, demanding, and of course obtaining bread, &c., from the provision shops. BOLTON. An attempt has been made, which, however, has signallv.failed, to create a disturbance in Bolton ; but the inhabitants, particularly the operatives, received a lessith in August, three years ago, that they have not veti fo:•gotton, and are fully aware of the folly and --ttendant on a breach of the peace. Several 21.,;•i', - ators from neighbouring towns attended on Wed nesday evening, - and, despite • the rain, .convened - meeting in the New Market. place, for the purpose of inducing the Operatives to make a general turn-out. Ote speaker, a man froth Ashton, was very violent, in Lis 'language, frequently making use of oaths, and e'Ven went the length of saying, that if the per)* of B o lt on al not assist in the turn-out, he would bring tke.men from Ashton, and give them «a good . The meeting adjourned to the following morning (Thursday), when a large crowd of persons p•incipally boys and girls, again assembled, and few words front several sirakers proceeded to N'Tir:ol3.; wins, at several of which they caused the hands to I:•irn out ; but at the principal mills, Messrs.

FRIDAY, AUG UST 12.—Another correspondent, T A ?se letter is dated five P.M. Friday evening, *state S, that every faotory in the town is stopped ; and that vithout any net of violence having been corn _ Mated, except in bursting open the doors of the M oss Vactory. FURTHER TUN-OUT OF WORKMEN. At the moment we write, the system of stopping employment has re-commenced in every district, even in the less numerous trades in the very heart of the town, including the engravers' shops, calenderers, &e. Parties are patrolling the neighbourhood of St. George's-road also, and stopping the brick-crofts. Even the wretaed hand-loom weavers in Angel Meadow have been visited. Meetings of the trades are taking place in the different parts of the town, with a view of preventing this state of things, by enrolling ad ditional members in the unions. RENEWED ATTEMPT TO STOP RAIL WAY COMMUNICATION. • Foun o'CLocx, -p.m.—Since writing the above, further particulars have come to our knowledge, which lead to the conclusion that matters are far from being so pacific as we had hoped. By eight o'clock this morning, another attack was made on the engine house of the Leeds Railway. The hands, chiefly mechanics, who were turned out there yesterday, had not returned to work, and their place had been ac cordingly supplied by others. The mob this morning was numerous and very violent, and they soon com pelled the new hands to desist, and drove them off as fast as they attempted to return. The officers of the Company finding that there was no chance of keeping any hands employed in the en gine -shed, accordingly removed the whole of the en gines, &c., which are usually there kept, to the neigh bourhood of the station, where they are perfectly se cure from any attack. A daring attempt was made, on the same line, to prevent the departure of the mail-train, which leaves the station at eleven o'clock. The arrival of all the down trains, from Leeds, has been regular, but the country is described as in a state of commotion along the while line. A gentleman who arrived by the train, which comes in at a ,quarter 7 past one, states that he saw large mobs assembled in the neighbourhood of liebden-bridge, and learned that all the works had been stopped in that quarter. The Oldham train, which arrived at a quarter to two, came at the proper time, but brings no additional news of importance` from that town. ATTEMPT TO THROW AN ENGINE OFF THE NORTH UNION LINE.-STATE OF PRESTON. An express engine arrived in Manchester about twelve o'clock, from Pr - 6ston, bringing a special mes senger from the Magistrates of that town to request military assistance from Manchester. All the works had been stopped, and the riot was raging fearfully. We regret to learn that :an attempt had been made to throw this engine off the rails. RIOT AT P - RESTON.-THE MOB FIRED UPON. On Saturday morning the mob proceeded, about seven o'clock, to the factories of Mr. F. Sleddon and Messrs. Catchcall ; the former resisted the demands of the assemblage (a majority boys). Soon after eight o'clock the numbers increased, and it was found requisite far the Riot Act to be read two or three times over. In the middle of Lane-street (the Riot Act being read in it twice) there was no obtaining order, nor could all the advice given by the Magistracy, &c., present, prevail won the desperate men to retire, in stead of which they commenced a fire of stones, which flew in all directions with determined resolution, the women bringing aprons and bags full of ammunition. The consequence was that order was given to fire, there being only 21 of the 72d Regiment iii Preston. One man was killed, and three or four wounded. An express was dispatched to Manchester for mili tary force. At a quarter past two the same engine (the North I ',lion), returned with two companies of the 60th 'titles, commanded by Ma'or Mitfbrd, Captain Tre valyn, and three other officers. Two companies of the infantry were promised for the following morning. The Mayor (Samuel Ilorrocks, Esq.), George Jack son, Esq., J. Baston, Esq., and other Magistrates, &c. were present when the firing took place. The greatest alarm prevails 'for the protection of the town. DEPARTURE OF TROOPS FROM THE METROPOLIS. On Saturday night, after the arrival of the artillery at the Euston-square station, the third battalion of the first Regiment of Foot Guards arrived, consisting of 700 men, under the command of Colonel Honeyman. On coming in sight they were received with groans and shouts by the assembled crowds, and an attempt wtis made to prevent them entering the gates, the mob at the Same time attempting to force an entry into the gates. _ _ At half-past eleven o'clock, the first train, consistirq.); of the horses, cannon, &c., was sent off; a sufficient number of men going with it to prevent an attack on arriving at its destination. In a quarter of an hour after the other train started, which contained the Guards and Artillerymen, amid the hootings of the mob. Several well known delegates to the late Na tional Convention left London early on Saturday afternoon for. Manchester. It was reported that the railways were in course of being broke up, the Manchester and Bolton being nearly destroyed. Yesterday forenoon at nine o'clock, three pieces of cannon, in addition to those forwarded the previous dav, were sent by the railway with the compliment ormen, eight officers 'of the Royal Horse Artillery, which left Woolwich about six o'clock the same morn ing. During the afternoon, it having been reported that a regiment of foot was to go by the railway,. the street in front of the station was again thronged, and by six o'clock the crowd had increased to about 5,000 persons. At that time the 34th wgirrient, under the command of Lieutenant-Colonel Grey, artived at the station, when they were imme diately admitted into the quadrangle. Several of the mob shouted and groaned as the last company of the itiff 4 4pent entered the gate.

COTTAGES.—It is stated on undoubted authority that one landlord in Leeds has at present one hundred and fifty cottages in this town for which he is receiving no rents, and that forty-six of them are unoccupied ! This is a tolerably significant sign of the times.—Leeds Mercury, THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, AUGUST 15, 1842.. RIOTS IN MANCHESTER. (Supplement to Friday :!1 - '2 , ;•lit's Gazette.) A PROCLAMAZION. Chartists seek to - set aside are devised for the pi•otec tion of property against numbers, the aim of the turn-outs is equally to get and to secure more pro perty for themselves,- and is, to all intents and pur pose,z, to that extent an insurrection against pro perty. The bulk of our dissensions, in modern times, and of most social dissensions, relate to this subject; and it will be injurious to the public welfare to dis guise or gloze over the leading fact, that this is an insurrection of those who have little or nothing, however much they may toil against those who own nearly all the wealth which is annually produced. The foundatioii of the demand for the Charter is the la bourer's complaint, that he is inadequately rewarded, and all its provisions are only devices to carry out the principle of a • " fair day's pay for a fair day's work." VICTORIA, R. Whereas in divers parts of Great Britain, great multitudes of lawless and disorderly persons have lately assembled themselves together in a riotous and tumultuous manner, and In,.ve, with i twee and violence, entered into certain mines, mills, manufactories, and other places, and have, by threats :and intimidation, prevented our good subjects therein employed from following their usual occupations and earning their livelihood. We, therefore, being duly sensible of the mischiev ous consequences which must inevitably ensue, as well to the peace of the kingdom, as to the lives and pro perties of our subjects, from such wicked and illegal practices, if they go unpunished ; and being firmly resolved to cause the laws to be put in execution for the punishment of such offenders, have thought fit, by the advice, of our Privy Council, to issue this Procla mation, hereby strictly commanding all Justices of the Peace, Sheriffs, Under-Sheriffs, and all other Civil Officers whatsoever, within the said United Kingdom, that they do use their utmost endeavours 'to discover, apprehend, and bring to justice the per sons concerned in the riotous proceedings above mentioned. The promptitude of Ministers in giving assistance to the authorities of Lancashire, and in using all customary means to put down this ex tensive insurrection meet with much appro bation. Certainly they have carried their own will, and the will of the classes they represent, as that is embodied into laws, energetically into effect; but it would have afforded us infinitely more satisfac tion could we have praised them for their promptness in taking measures to deprive the people of all motives for their outrageous conduct. But they seem, by their dogged determination, to exact more revenue for the Government (which means, in truth, for the classes they exclusively represent and think of), at whatever cost, and their equally obstinate refusal to allow the people to have abundance—to have done a great deal both to sharpen in the people a desire to get more for themselves, and to deprive them of the means of lawfully getting it. By prevent ing the people from being fully fed, and well clothed, they have contributed to provoke the extensive insurrection which has now taken place against property, and which no act could have excited amongst a well 7 fed, contented people. Without ex onerating the misled persons, who have taken an inju dicious and violent course, those Mini4ers and those Legislators, who are the 'authors of so much poverty and misery, are infinitely more to blame than the suffering and goaded masses. And, as a further inducement to discover the said offenders, we do hereby promise and declare, that any persons or persons who shall discover and apprehend, or cause to be discovered and apprehended, the authors, abettors, or perpetrators of any of the out rages obove-mentioned, so that they, or any of them, may be duly convicted thereof, shall be entitled to the sum of Fifty Pounds for each and every person who shall be so convicted, and shall also receive our most gracious pardon for the said offence, in case the person making such discovery as aforesaid shall be liable to be prosecuted for the same. Given at our Court at Windsor, the 13th day of August, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and forty-two, and in the sixth year of our reign. Scripture says " men do not gather grapes from thorns, and figs from thistles ;" and when, instead of grapes and figs, which they expect, they find only thistles and thorns, the inference is, that they have not planted, as they intended, the vine and the fig tree. Now the bulk of the population is in a sad state of destitution and suffering and there is a wide-spread disturbance calling for the exertion of the ' military and police. It requires all the energies of the middle and upper classes to save their property. It puts the public to great additional expense and inconvenience. These are undeniable facts, and being great and serious evils, what must the system be which bears them ? They are much more the consequence of our laws than the extension of cultivation, which is only supposed to grow from them. In forming our opinion of Sir ROBERT PEEL'S plans, and his capabilities of governing, we must no more omit this present disturbance and its conse quences, than the present introduction, of which he boasts, of a few thousand quarters of corn. To sup pose he can escape from the dilemna, by hurling false accusations at the Anti-Corn-law League, or against restless agitators is absurd. He was bound to be aware that disturbances might ensue, and to take as much care to prevent that misery which makes the people the tools of demagogues, as to provide a remunerating price for farmers. He may have effected the latter, he has not the former ; and the present insurrection is the condemnation of Sir R. PEEL. The terrible evil exists—it is tenfold greater than all the evils he has warded off by the laws which has brought this on— and the present condition of the people proves him to be a most short-sighted politician. AMERICAN NEWS. ARRIVAL OF THE ACADIA. LIVERPOOL, SATURDAY. The fine steamer, Acadia, Captain Ryrie, arrived in the river to-day at 12 o'clock, after an excellent passage of nine days fifteen hours from Halifax, whence she sailed on the afternoon of the 3rd, and from Boston on the Ist. The British Queen arrived at New York on the 27th ult. The Great Western arrived out on the morning of the 30th, after a passage of in days. The Columbia had arrived out after. a ten days and "a half passage—one of the quickest to the west ever known. The cotton market was extremely dull dur ing the week preceding the sailing of the packet, and freight were without improvement. The Money Market was heavy, and the rate of Exchange on England 1061 to 1061. This arrival confirms, we are happy to say, the pre vious intelligence that the settlement of the Boundary Question is at length completed. The details, pub lished in all the papers, and criticised with consider able severity in some of them, on account of the too favourable terms said to be conceded to England, are exactly the same as those we published on Saturday. The National Intelligencer of the 29th ult., has the following remarks on the negotiation relative to the North Eastern Boundary Lord Ashburton is believed to have held out long for the entire Madawaska settlement. But the Maine Commissioners are said to have been as immovable as any four pine stumps on the disputed territory. So Maine, under the arrangement, goes to the river St. John's. It is not unlikely, we learn, that the line which the Dutch arbiter decided for, the line of the St. John's and the St. Francis, will be agreed to. But then the Maine gets what the Dutch King did not give her, the navigation of the river ; and this trebles the value of all her tall pine trees. West wardly of the St. Francis, England takes a tract of mountain land, untimbered, and of no earthly value but as a boundary ; and she relinquishes to the United States Rouse's Point, the key of Lake Champ lain, and a large territory heretofore supposed to belong to New York and Vermont, but which turns out to lie north of the 45th degree of latitude, and is therefore a part of Canada. It is said to be, and probably is, in consequence of this cession, that the United 'States Government agrees to pay a sum to each of the States of Maine and Massachusetts for the acres they have parted with ; not more than a quarter as much, however, as General Jackson offered to give to Maine alone, during his administration, in the year 1832. It is thought there are questions of boundary further up, as the Secretary of State has summoned here the Commissioners, &c., who ran the line, or endeavoured to do so, under the treaty of Ghent (but could not always agree), from the river of St. Lawrence to the Lake of the Woods ; and it is sup posed that all remaining questions, in that far-off world, will be settled. THE NEW TARIFF BILL.—The New. Tariff Bill had passed the House of Representatives by a very small majority-116 to 112. It was then sent to the Senate, and formed the subject of daily debates there at the time the packet sailed. A NEW LlNER.—Messrs. Grinnell, Minturn, and Co., have, in these dull times, laid down the timbers of a ship of thirteen hundred and fifty tons, for their Li verpool line. This will be the largest of all the packet-ships, and superior in all respects, ro far as it is possible to do better than the best of what is past.—Commercial Advertiser. CROPS.—The harvest is expected to be very abun dant. Letters from the South give very flattering reports of the appearance of the corn and cotton crops. Tin COLUMDIA.—The Columbia, from Liverpool, made her passage in ten and a half days, being the quickest voyage to the westward on record. BRAZlL.—lntelligence from Rio Janeiro states that an insurrection had broken out in the province of St. Peas, but that it was thought of little moment, and was expected to be easily put down- Captain Smiley reports, however, that when he left, on the 20th June, appearances were more alarmi ng . It was reported that a large body of troops, from 1,800 to 2,200 were within fifty miles of Rio. The Govern ment has sent a force against them, and some skir mishing had taken place. Several persons supposed to be favourable to the rebels had been arrested. A great number of houses, suspected persons had been searched, and all the arms found taken possession of by the Government. The cause of the revolt is sup posed.to be the dislike the people have for the Prime Minister. HAVANNAH.—The British steamer Teviot, lying in Havannali, took fire on the 14th inst., from spontaneous combustion of the coal in her lower hold. The money and ammunition were got out. The steamer was then filled with water from engines. The precise damage to the Teviot was not ascertained, but it is supposed to be considerable. The Teviot was recently from Vera Cruz.

GO DUTCH AND FLANDERS MAIL. BRUSSELS, AUGUST 11.—If we may believe a Journal of Bruges the Belgian pigeons are threatened by the Directors of the French Post-office. Regular communications between Paris, London, Brussels, Antwerp, Ghent, Bruges, and other cities, by means of pigeons, are now established, and some of these serial couriers are daily dispatched in different direc tions after the closing of the Exchange. We are assured that the French Post-office authorities intend to prosecute these pigeons as the bearers of letters contrary to the law of 27 Prairial, year IX., which gives to the Post-office the monopoly of the convey ance of letters weighing less than one kilogramme (2.1b5.) The Chevalier de Noronha, Portuguese Charge d'Affaires in Belgium, has returned to Brussels from Lisbon, after an absence of several months. The most audacious robberies are committed in the country. A few days since some malefactors threshed cole-seed, rye, and wheat, in the open fields in several communes, of the district of Turnhout. The quantities carried off were considerable. The villages are in despair at seeing their harvest carried off, and are in great fear for the buck wheat, the oats, the potatoes, &c. which are still to be got in, unless the authorities watch the malefactors.

September, which is to be honoured by Prince George and a great assemblage of illustrious personages.

According to accounts froth . Lancashire, the turn out, or as the Manchester Guardian Calls it, the in surrection, continues to spread: We recollect nothing like it. On Monday the first movement began. Staleybridge ; before Saturday it had extended to every township in the neighbourhood, and there seems only one, Bolton, where it has not been so far success ful as to put a stop to nearly all kinds ofmanufacturing industry. Much other busineSs has ofcourse been sus pended, and great loss must already have been incurred. However' speedily, and by whatever means it may be terminated, it cannot fail to cause still greater loss before it is over, and will most certainly leave many painful rankling feelings behind, both in the masters and in the workmen. The Ministers regard the matter as extremely serious. They held a Council as soon as possi ble after receiving the deputation from Manchester and they immediately issued a Proclamation against . the rioters, which will be foundin another part of The Sun. TroOps have arrived at Manchester from Dub lin, and two companies of Artillery, a battalion of Guards, and an infantry regiment, which had been brought from - Porsmouth, have been dispatched by railway to the Manchester districts. Such exertions would not bu required, and would not be made, if the present general turn-out were not very different from any similar demonstration of late years. The Mom/tester Guardian, whose remarks we copy, calls it an insurrection, and ascribes it to the machinations of those who have heretofore encouraged the people to have " a sacred-week," as n means of at taining their ends. That Journal endeaVours to throw , the whole blame on some restless agitators. Without discussing the nice question, how far the movement results solely from the misery, of the \pricing people, and how far, from the intrigues of those —lto have practised on that misery, we are in clined to ii.:!ont the epithet of the G u a r di an . Whether the turn-out be immediately hpro voked by sire to obtain better wages, or to obtain the chaTto.r l p§ the institutions..whic the COURT CIRCULAR. WINDSOR, SUNDAY.—Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent, Lady Charlotte Dundas, and Sir George Couper, Bart., joined the Royal circle at dinner on Friday, after her Majesty's arrival from town. Yesterday morning the Queen and Prince Albert walked to Adelaide Cottage, and returned by the Little Park ; and the Prince of Wales and the Princess Royal were taken their accustomed airing, accompanied by the Dowager Lady Lyttleton. Lord George Lennox and Captain Francis Seymour (Scots F usilier Guards) arrived on a vi s it. - The Queen was out riding in the Great Park yester day, when the Ministers arrived from Town. .Directly after her Majesty's return to the Castle with Prince Albert and .their Illustrious Relatives, attended by the Royal suite, a Privy Council was immediately held, which occupied only a few minutes, and the whole of the Ministers and the Olerk of the Council took their de g„arture. This Morning, her Majesty and - Prince Albert, the Duke of Saxe Coburg Gotha, and the Hereditary Prince and Princess, with Viscountess Jocelyn, Colonel Buckley, and Colonel Wylde, rode in pony phaetons to Cumberl a nd Lodge, and attended Divine service in the beautiful little chapel. The Rev Mr. Atkins officiated, and preached an eloquent sermon from the 13th verse of the sth chapter of the Second Book of Kings. The Duke of Wellington is expected to arrive on a visit to her Majesty to,morrow. Despatches from the disturbed districts were received at an early hour on Saturday morning at the Hone office. , The gentlemen, b earers o f t h e i n f ormat i on, had interviAvs in the forenoon with Sir James Graham, and also with Sir Robert Peel. Summonses were imme diately issued to the - Cabinet Ministers to attend a Council at the Foreign-of Ice. The Council was attended by the following Minis ters :—Sir Robert Peel, the Duke of Wellington, Lord Wharnclitre,- the Duke of Buceleuch, Earl of Aberdeen, Sir James Graham, the .Chancellor of the Exchequer, Earl of Haddington, Earl of Ripon, and Lord Fitz gerald.' _ _ 7 The Ministers met soon after twelve o'clock, and sat tivo hours. Alter the meeting Lord Fitzroy Somerset, the Military Secretary to the Commander of the Forces, visited Sir James Graham, at the Home-office. At half-past four O'clock Sir Robert Peel, accompanied by the Duke of Buecleneh, left town for Windsor Castle. Sir James Graham also took his departure. The Queen held a Privy Council at Windsor Castle. It was attended by his Royal Highness Mince Albert; I,ord Wharncliffe, Lord President of the Privy Council ; the Duke of Wellington ; Sir Robert Peel, First Lord of of the Treasury ; die Duke of Buccleuch, Lord Privy Seal ; Sir Janes Graham, Secretary of State for the Home Department, and the Earl of Haddington, First Lord of the Admiralty. At the Council a Proclamation was ordered to be issued on the subject of the recent riots. Mr. C. • Greville was the Clerk of the Council in Wait ing._ Sir R"obert Peel, Sir James Graham, and other Cabinet Ministers, and also Mr. Greville, returned to town about nine o'clock in the evening. Despatches from Manchester were brought to the Hume-office ut an early,hour yesterday morning, His Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge left town for Kew on Saturday afternoon. Lord Stanley left town, on Friday evening, for Ne therby, the seat of Sir James Graham. Saturday was the. birthday of her Majesty the Queen Dowager.

INCOME-TAX PAPERS.--A respectable farmer in South Derbyshire—a High Church and King Tory— was waited upon the other day by a person who deli livers the income-tax papers. The official informed .‘ There (said he) our Tory Friend, that if lie did not make a return within 21 days, he would be subject to a heavy penalty. "Oh, ntyg r o e ( t ) t d tri: al) : In '6l d i eb s t h — al n l o have (e i ts t .,, directly—,‘ait a mo m ent " said he ; and, taking pen in hand, he wrote on the take that to your employers; 'and the business is soon done."—Derby Reporter. IPswicu.---This borough, which has excited so much interest of late in an electioneering point of view, did not escape the- raillery of then merry monarch, Charles who, upon Out' occasion, as he was passing through the town, quaintly obsvrvcd to Buckingham that it was indeed a " strange place," for, "it vas a town withoit inhabitants, possessed of a river without any water in it, with streets without names, and that the asses had boots on." Nor was the King much out of his reckoning ; for in his time Ipswich was but scantily' p o p ulate d , and the river why the tide was out ex hibited a very contracted 'channel, w.tilst the town was subdivided into four wards, the streets not hearing names, a nd the donkeys, with a view to br o w se up o n suchfodder as the dikes aitirded them, were o bli ge d to traverse the outskirts, knee-deep in mud, for that purposes so that when th e latter became somewhat dry, and incrusted, the legs of the animals appeared furnished with mud boots.—Cant bridge Chronicle. The Parisians affect a contempt for Messrs. Howell and Matthews, because they very properly refused, although attracting crowded audiences at the Theatre des Varietes, to perform on Sunday..

From the latest advices from the mining and manu facturing districts, we gather that the disturbances still continue to spread—and to spread with a speed, and to an extent, that demand the utmost prompti tude and energy on the part of Government. This vigour, much to their praise be it said, Ministers seem actively bent on exerting ; and we are not without strong hopes, therefore, notwithstanding present appearances in the disturbed districts, that their exertions will be crowned with success. As regards those misguided operatives who still persevere in.their lawless and tumultuous pro ceedings, we would exhort them seriously to pause and consider whether they are not, by their intemperate course of conduct, removing themselves still further than ever from the chance of obtaining redress of their grievances, and perilling the cause which they profess to have so much at heart. If they imagine that, by their present exhibitions, they are displaying their for midable strength, we can assure them that they are wholly in error ; for they are showing rather what they cannot do, than what they can do. They have power and they have influence, and they can snake that power and that influence felt in the Legislature (notwithstanding the vast number of monopolists there arrayed against them) so long as they maintain a firm and peaceable demeanour ; but the instant they abandon this pru dential line of conduct, and have recourse, as at pre sent, to illegal acts, their influence diminishes ; they multiply enemies, and compel those to stand aloof, who would fain be their most active friends and sup porters. The report now goes that they are agi tating for the Charter. Do they hope to gain that Charter by showing, to the satisfaction of all parties, ho w unfit they are to be entrusted with fur ther power ? To obtain just privileges, by having recourse to unjust acts? We conjure them to weigh well their present position, and more especially to consider what a blight they are casting over their prospects—what misery they are heaping up for them selves; and those who are dependent on them, by the ill-judged course they are now pursuing. We have received the French Papers of Saturday. They state that some discussions had taken place in the Bureaux on the Regency Bill, and in general it finds fa vour, even with M. TRIERS. M. ODILLON BARROT also will vote for it as it has been proposed by the Mi nisters. It was, however, still reported that some De puties, and M. DE LA MARTINE is mentioned as one, would endeavour to substitute the name of the Duchess of ORLEANS for that of the Duke de NEMOURS. Such an attempt can only cause a little irritation, and must end in the disappointment of the ambitious poet, who is quite misplaced as a politician. Both on Friday and:Saturday there was a consider able fall in the price of Spanish, on the Paris Ex change, in consequence, as it is said, of the increasing difficulties of the Spanish Treasury. The Journal des Debats discusses, at considerable length, the failure of our West India Mail Packet Company, and indulges a hope that a French Com pany, which is about to be formed for a similar pur pose, will succeed. The Parisian Journalist is obviously very ignorant of the cause of failure here, and if he knew it, he would find in it no discouragement for the French undertaking. We see no reason why both the French and the English Companies may not ultimately succeed. The following are brief extracts : PAnis, AuG. 13.—A letter from Carraccas of June 11 announces the death of M. de la Falun, Consul-General and Charge d'Affaires of France to the Republic of Cen tral America. He died at La Guayra, where he was to have embarked for Europe. A cotton-factory at Fontaine Guerard (Seine Infe rieure), belonging M. Levavasseur, was burnt down on Tuesday night. The loss is estimated at 400,000 francs. The building was not insured. A fire broke out on the 3d instant in the presbytery of the village of Aresches, near Salins, and in an hour ten houses were burnt down. The loss is estimated at 80,000 francs. A letter from Madrid of the 6th instant says :—" The Government is now engaged in the organisation of the Custom-house officers as military bodies. This project is attributed to General Rodil, who in the time of Ferdinand VII. was Inspector-General of the corps of Custom-house officers, organised as military, by the name of carbineers of the coasts and the frontiers. The commercial treaty between England and Portugal has caused a great sensation in Spain. It is feared that smuggling will daily increase. A letter of the 6th from the frontiers of Catalonia, published_in the Phare:des Pyrennees, has the following news : " The company of the 2d Regiment of Light Infantry, cantoned at La Manera, having been informed that an armed band had violated the French territory, went in pursuit of it ; twenty-four men and five officers. fell into the hands of our soldiers : one of the first was killed; twenty-seven muskets or blunderbusses were taken. " The gendarmes, assisted by a detachment of the 25th Regiment of Light Infantry, yesterday arrested 11 Carlists at Villeroga, beyond St. Laurent de Cordano; among them are, Manus. their chief, and three brothers, and a Nephew of Felip.

Our foreign intelligence to-day, though w•e have our usual papers, is in substance very scanty. Spanish Stock has fallen on the Bourse at Paris; the bureaux are discussing the Regency Bill in a good spirit ; and the Parisian journals, small us they are, can find a' large space to deVote to the probable success of a French West India Company when the English one has failed. MONEY- TICHDE-COMMERCE. Notwithstanding the stoppage of the mills at Man chester much business has been done during the past week in cloths; at Bolton, Leeds, and Bradford, trade has also improved., At Nottingham, though there has been some slight improvement in the cotton hosiery, the lace-trade may almost be said to be in a dead calm, NAVAL AND MILITARY. Two regiments in Dublin have just been ordered for Lancashire: Ensign Samuel Walter Kirk, of the 18th Regi ment, had the sentence of the Court •martial, which was held on that officer on the 27th of June htt, communicated to him on Thursday, it finds him guilty for his conduct on the majority of charges, and orders him to be cashiered. PUBLIC 4 rmpzi a The Deputy-Chairman of the Markets Committee for the City appeared at the Mansion-house on Satur day, to confer with the sitting Magistrate on the sub ject of Bartholomew Fair. It was then stated that the Lord Mayor evinced the greatest anxiety that the abolition of the fair should take place during his Mayoralty : his Lordship will open the approaching fair privately, and the public will be given to- under stand that the Magistrates sanction it only for mer cantile purposes. The proclamation not taking place till the afternoon of the eve of St. Bartholomew, in' stead' of half-past tw e l ve o ' c l oc k on th e preeedinF , night, will have the effect of the " custom of "Lady Holland's ifob," and dissipate their irregu lar orgies. LAW AND POLICE. The trial of the six prisoners for the murder of the policeman at Bristol took place at Gloucester on Fri day. The sentences on the prisoners are as follow "Manslaughter" against Charles Dwyer, William Dwyer, and Regan, acquitting the other three pri soners. Charles Dwyer has been sentenced to trans., portation for life, and the two others to ten years transportation. ELECTIONEERING. To-day (Monday) is fixed for the nomination nt Ipswich, and to-morrow for the polling. The only joint candidates in the field at present are Captain Gladstone and S. L. Fox, who are prosecuting a vi gorous canvass. THEATRICAL. The Opera season terminated on Saturday nights the cast of Ot e ll o as on Th urs d ay. Ihe Nit tional Anthem was sung, and the curtain descended on Cerito's Alma, in which she was unanimously solicited to repeat her brilliant revolving step in bet own beautiful pas de trois.
