DURHAM .REFORM COUNTY MEETING. A public meeting was held on Monday last, the 31s t of October, in front of the Court-houses, to adopt reso lutions of thanks to the King, his Alinisters, and to the Commons House of Parliament, for their support to the measure of Reform rejected by the House of Lords. C. J. CLAVERING, Esq., High Sheriff, in the Chair. The CHAIRMAN said, he had called the present meeting in compliance with a requisition to that effect from a body of about 300 freeholders of the county of Durham. The requisition, when it was first presented to him, after stating the first object of the meeting, went on to say, " or to adopt such other measures as might be deemed expedi ent." The word " or" stuck in his throat, and he refused to comply with the requisition till some alteration had bi en made in it. This was immediately done, and he then felt it his duty to call the meeting. G. H. Wiecussore, Egg., then rose to move the first reso lution, expressive of thanks to his Majesty, and praying him to continue to place confidence in his Ministers. If their former meetings were important, the present was ten-fold more so. Their enemies had for a season prevailed. Ile wished them joy of their victory.—(Cheers.) They had taken a false step ; entertaining the belief that the House of Commons needed regeneration, they had forgotten that the House of Lords needed regeneration first.—(Cheers ) But time was a great physician, many healing properties might be infused by operations into the aristocracy as at present consituted. Rash and hasty men were for imme diately ere cting new Peers, with as little ceremony as the Nobles of their children, which were put into the oven ready gilt and varnished.—(A laugh.) They ouglet to give place to reason and reflection. There was no occa sion to resort to desperate remedies. They had a majority of 131 of their representativea in their favour. The King would stand firm to his Ministers ; and the people of England would continue unanimously to express their determination. If this, and if the working of this lever by the royal hand did not bring about the fulfilment of their hopes, there was some more potent kind of machinery must be had recourse to. The screw must be had in operation, and it must wind them to the sticking point.—(Cheers.) The Learned Gentleman then showed that several Peers had been created in the reign of Queen Anne under a Tory Administration, to subdue a restive majority in the House of Lords, and the present Ministry were sufficiently justified in a like course on the present occasion if other means failedoen(Sheers.) The tErst step for the people to do through their repreven,a lives was to refuse the supplies and suspend the Mutiny Act.--(Cheers.) He dare not look beyond this: he dreaded the consequence of the continued obstinacy of the Lords.—(Cheers.) How did the enemies of Reform jus tify their conduct? Mr. Wilkinson then went at some length into the reasons assigned by several Noble Lords for their opposition to the Bill, and exposed the fallacy of their arguments. J. HARLAND, Esq. then rose. rin had not expected that there would be any necessity for another meeting for Reform, except to celebrate its triumph. He w&s, how ever, disappointed; but he did not despair. They must place na reliance on the moderate Reformers, but upon the King and his Ministers. Indeed, what claims had those bit-by-bit Reformers on their notice? The words of the Duke of Wellington against Reform of coy kind or degree were still ringing in their ears. The votes of Peel and his party were fresh in their recollection, and therefore they could not receive proposals from etteh men otherwise than with suspicion and distrust.— (Cheers.) The object of the Duke was no doubt to get into office again, and then instead of granting them Reform they would only put a gloss and specious appearance upon the monster of corruption, and render him the more dan genaus because the less unsightly.—(Great applause.) Their opponents had declared themselves averse to all sweeping measures; for seventy years had this measure been prayed for, and for seventy years their prayers had been treated with contempt. They bad met to return thanks to Earl Grey and his colleagues. They ha,.l taken office at a very seasonable time, and to them their especial thanks were due. It had been said that the Reform mea sure would not cheapen bread, if it did not do so nomi :Airily, it would do so really, for in the end it would leave more money in the pocket to buy that bread with.— (Cheers.) Their choice was not between two evils, but between evil and good.—(Cheers.) He concluded by reading the first resolution, which was put and carried nuanimously. C. RIPPON, Esq., then rose.—He said on the ac cession of the present Government to power he had ex pected much ; in the Reform Bill his expectations had been more than realised.—(Cheers.) It was therefore with much pleasure that he had to propose an address to them, thanking them for their exertions in the great cause of Reform. If the King continued true to the people. and the people true to themselves, they must eventually succeed. Their hope., however, had hitherto been un fidfilled. The Lords had rejected the Bill, not because it was not just and reasonable, but because it was their will. If they persisted in their obstinacy they would find that as their indignation was not easily enkindled, so, also, it was not easily extinguished.—(Cheers.) They were ready to chew that there was still blood enough in their veins to make a stand against tyranny and oppression. He prayed that the Temporal Peers would consider the consequences likely to result from their rashness, and retrace their steps before it was too late...—(Cheers.) Mr. R. then proceeded to animadvert on the conduct of the Spiritual Lords. He rejoiced that they had thus acted ? because they now appeared in their true character, and, uninten tionally indeed, bad paved the way for their own ejection —(Laughter and applause.) Their conduct had been the same in every part of their history, and they never sup ported a liberal measure except when their own interests were endangered. He concluded by moving the second resolution, which was briefly seconded by SHAFTO, Esq., and carried unanimously. HEDWORTIE LAMItTON, Esq., then rose to propotse the third resolution, of a vote of thanks to the House of Commons. He would first notice, however, the eminent men in the Upper House who were entitled to their grati tude. Earl Grey, by his patriotism, deserved the civic crown; and who did not feel proud in having such a cham pion as Lord Brougham ? He would not have them to forget the Bishops of Norwich and Chichester, the only men of that class who had voted for the Reform Bill.—(Cheers.) He devoutly hoped that it would re trace its steps when the Bill was again brought before the House. Mr. Lambton then passed a high eulogiurn on the county Members, Wm. Russell, Esq., and Sir 11. Williamson, Bart., for their exertions in the great cause. It had been said by the borough faction that Great Britain owed its greatness to the nomination boroughs. With as great truth might it be said that Durham sewer was the notsree of the Wear,—(Cheers and laughter.) What had the boroughs to do with the formation of the wise laws of Allred, the Magna Charts., or the Bill of Rights ? Nothing at all.—(Cheers.) Mr. L. concluded by moving the third resolution. T. C. GRANGER, Esq., in a long address, seconded the resolution. He said when they sent petitions they were charged with indulging in a spirit of intimidation—ashen thly sent no petitions they were represented as not caring iIIIP Reform. If they went in small numbers they were disregarded, and if they met in large numbers, as on the present occasion, they were designated as an ill-intentioned and deluded mob.—(Cheers.) Mr, Wilkinson had depre cated all intimidation. He differed from his Learned Friend. Nothing but intimidation coutd ever move the House of Lords ; and nothing but intimidation was moving it now. Indeed, what did the word expediency imply, but the necessity ofgiving up what could no longer with safety be kept? And in consequence the only question with the Peery now was, how little will the people be setisfied with Earl Grey had been accused of stirring up the spirit of Reform. Much as he was disposed to thank Earl Grey, he could not accede to him that hoeeer. It was the spirit of Reform that brought them into exisitoee. Instead of being the creators, they were only the creAurfs of the Bill.—(Cheers.) One objection which had been wed,: by Lord Wharnclille was, that the mecenre would make the House of Commons ix° much the mirror of the people.— (A laugh.) This is what it ought to be ; what even themselves admitted in theory, end why not allow it to he so in practice ?—(Great applause.) ;Mr. Grange con cluded by seconding the third resolution, which was car ried unanimously. Wm. Russell, Esq., M. P. for the county of Durham, then rose to return thanks for the flattering manner in which his name had been mentioned, Serious illness had prevented bins from attending as he could have wished to his Parliamentary duties. He would, however, make every exertion, when the Parliament again met, for this and every other cause of public liberty. Sir H. Wleezesrsole, Bert , L.P.A for the county, and ALP. foe. the city of DurinaWs W. R. C. CHAYTOR, Esq., also addressed the meeting, and stated their determi,nation to use all their e ndeavours in furtheranc e of tia..2 % cause of Reform. Sir H. Wieetnelsow also returned thanks. G. BAKER, Esq., then moved that the address to his' '.Majesty should be presented by Earl Grew ; which was Britrkiil by i G. T. Fox, Esq. ;*-64 .74w45-ituze, Esq., and Cer&RLES ATTWOOD, Es., .. - ...v0t0 laddyi4 the meeting. The latter gentleman stated his be - lipfjlslt ere was something goine on behind the \ \ir ignee'se l eege ; ie:/ .41 Sat '1 4 13 '‘).' curtain in the Cabinet, with which the people ought to be acquainted. Four times four were given for the King, three cheers for his Ministers, and three groans for the boroughmoners. A vote of thanks was then given to the Chairman, and the meeting broke up. There were several flags exhibited, as " The Borough mongers on their last legs."—" May Reform Triumph," —" The King, and may he live for ever."—" The Press, the bulwark of the Constitution." The num ber of persons present has been variously estimated at from 7 to 12,000, perhaps 10,000 would be nearest the truth. Though it was generally believed that the Marquis of Londonderry, Mr. Trevor, M.P. Sir H. Harding', and other Tories, would attend, we were happy to find they did not come. We trust, notwith standing the animosity of the Reformers against them, their personal safety might not have been affected, but it was much wiser in them not to brave public opinion in the moment of greatest excitement. Though some disturbance was attempted by a few drunken freemen at the beginning of the meeting, it was fortunately put down, and nothing but unanimity and enthusiasm afterwards prevailed. The meet ing broke up quietly about half-past four o'clock. RIOTS AT BRISTOL (From the Bristol Mercury of yesterday, Tuesday. ARRIVAL OF SIR CHARLES. At about half-past ten Sir Charles was perceived to ap proach, at a rapid rate, in a chariot drawn by four greys, and on stopping at Totterdown (or the purpose of being handed into the Sheriff's carriage, he was instantly as sailed by the most deafening yells, groans, and hisses. The constables were then, in considerable numbers, placed around the carriage, a gentleman on horseback riding close by the side of each door, and three or four hundred pre ceding and following. In this manner the cavalcade, which comprised also the usual number of Mayor's and Sheriffs' officers, mounted, with favours, proceeded slowly towards the city. Just as Sir Charles was passing over Mill's Bridge, his carriage was assailed with four or five stones; but no movement took place with a view to ap prehend the offenders, the whole force being anxious only for the protection of the Recorder'; preon. As the pro cession moved onward, the crowd continued to i4cre4s,e, and the expressions of disapprobation from the multitude became riinre and mere deafening; and occasionally some stone or missile wcs bin-led against the object of their dis pleasure. In Temple-street, the wiudows of the hous e s were crowded with spectators, and the lower ordept of females were particularly vociferous in the expression of their feelings, frequently charging the men with cowardice and a want of sp:rit. In passing from the Bridge to High street, one of the corstanlea, 41.; respectable tradesman, re ceived a dangerous contusion in the herd ; and, in the latter street, also, some few stones were thrown. On arriving at Guildhall, in Broad-street, it was with the greater ,difficulty that Sir Charles could alight, from the pressure of the immense multitude; but, after the lapse of a few minutes, he was handed opt in safety, and proceeded to take his station on the bench. The doors of the hall were.then thrown open to the populace, and, in a few minutes, the area was completely choked up. Ou the Recorder alighting ) we thought he seemed somewhat agi tated, which indeed was reaaonahly to be expected, but he appeared to be in the enjoyment of eaceilent health. On taking his seat, however, he resumed his compoSure, end smiled and nodded to several individuals whom he recog nized in court. The usual forms to opLe;ng the commission then com menced ; but the noise and confusion .c,:c,:a;ioned consider able interruption. Mr. Serjeant Ludlow, town-clerk, then rose an./ picl, that he believed there was not an individual present who had cmce there for the purpose of insulting the comniission of the King , with respect to Reform —(Here the most astounding cries ewer;, raised by the people in favour of that measure, and in derision of the Recorder, niiie4 with yells and groans ; during which Sir Charles, who stood ioehing the Town-Clerk, pulled the latter by the gown, and from his geste.us, for it was im possible to hear a word he said, manifested zonsiderOle displeasure at the introduction of the subject.)---The Town- Clerk then resumed, merely adding, that with respect to that question (Reform) it 11.?..0 nothing to do with the pro ceedings of that day. The reading of the commission was then attenipted to be proceeded with, but the confusion again became so uproarious art to render the voice of Mr. Brice, the Mayor's clerk, perfectly inaudible. The RECORDER then, addreaaing nne of the officers, said if the latter saw any person in Court making a disturb ance, and would bring him forward, he would immediately commit him. The only effect of thiti notice was to raise, if possible, a louder clamour than that which i: was intended to sup press; on this fresh ebullition of feeling partially cnbsiding. Sir Charlee twain repeated his instructions to the officer, who replied by caving that the tumult arose chiefly from a few individuals, and suggatzd the propriety of some con stables being sent into the body of :h,?. hall. Several of the specials then disposed themseives among the people, Who then commenced a different species of an noyance, by coughing, which at length they ended in a general burst of indignation. In this manner the usual preliminaries were gone through, ending by the adjournment of the Court by Sir Charles, till eight o'clock on Monday morning. The Re corder than withdrew from the bench, and the populace, after some further marks of their displeasure towards the Learned Judge, gave three heers for the King, and re tired into the street. Some considerable time then elapsed before the Recorder was taken up for the purpose of being conveyed to the Mansion-house, During the interval, Broad-street, and, indeed, the whole line of the route, was occupied by a dense mass of the population. Beyond the mere vocal expression of their feelings, however, there was nothing in their con duct, at this period, calculated to excite alarm. On Charles's reappearance, he was greeted with a repetition of the same favours that had befor / : been so liberally bestowed upon hita, which continued through th.:, remainder of his progress, with the exception that, at the ;Commercial rooms, in front of whisk building a body of his admirers had placed themselves, he was greeted with three cheers. But there was no violence : beyond hiss;r:g and groaning nothing else occurred, as far as we can learn, witil his arrival at the Mansion-house, in Queen-square. There a few stones were ilnown, and a lamp or a window of the carriage was broken, but 4.e Recorder himself received no injury. . _ . . have now arrived at what we coneeivea t.; Le the most impoo;xt part of our narrative, inasmuch at; it is the opinion of eweiy ._tie with whom we have conversed, that the proceedings wk.:4 directly followed the ar rival of the Recorder and Corporatizn et. the Mansion hou4s were the more immediate cause of ali th 4 disgraceful and ever-tc,kt-deplored events which have subsecitleatl; transpired. A iet - .7 minutes after their alighting, a rush was made on the populace, Ly a nose of special constables, for the purpose of o,,curing the Perskii.74 hy whom the mis siles bad just been thrown, and an individual wk - .; tal.:en hold of and dragged into the )lansion-house. Again, another rush took place, and another oapture was made; and this was repeated several times: the , i3v,i4tion being pretty generi: that persons were selected at random, The least show of opp,;4,it;on on the part of the populace, who, during these proceui,,..g i were really guiltless of any new outrage, subjected them to L',..e;xtL,t brutal attacks of some of tb; persons who assumed to be 1. pzcic.,l.copstableq, many of who by imprudently brandishing tileb• sto•ep, did much to excite feelings of the people. We saw ong man carried away from a nuarter where an affray had just taken place, and wereinfu r rine. - 2 that he had been knocked down uy how on his head, and aftevyards unmercifully beaten. We b.;ye since learned that his skuil was frac tured, and that he is dead . , The constables, it will never be forgotten, acted wholly withort system of organip- tioi;. No Magistrate made his appearance to regulate their prGczedings, to direct their operations, or to rcutt;',','- strate with the pc;tAlace. At this moment the n:.; s h.er of persons collected in the vinare could not have been less ti;c.c ten thousand ; and a cry 14ying been raised to " To the Jae ,`•` whore piles of faggots a«-ci rrowood are usually kept, a large botiy pre:. ceeded thither,aMl, 4:sing armed theMselverwith sticks, returned in a few minutes to Ag scene of action. It was then that, for the first time, we appielianded any serious collision; .I;mt the constables, rushing out in a in a moment infused terror ,:nto the people, and the stick vier;. sc4r3 to be seen strewed in .every direction upon the ground. 'Apse were then gatered ufr. in bundles and carried off. 'his was about half-past twelve ti'cfock. From that period tili *out four o'clock the time was passed in occasional skirmishes iietwsen the constables and the pop:laze, which generally ended is .i.ome one being taken into cusicdy, During these proceedings .4 was visible that the poopbe we,:e becoming more and more ex experated. Now and then a i4,4'; of glass was «mashed in, qr rr cl,ph hurled at the l4eada of o '.b;!.:qnstables, and these attacks ge,qvally, ed ,to measures which 14,igf;!; . eped, iather than .allayed, tike w.p , .llar feeling. At inoqt ;foOr o'clock, when the shades of night were rapidly approaahing, a esmshierafde portion . pf,the consta bulary to retire to ni,A bulary force was most uyise4ly permitted thsir homes, for the purpose of rerre4ipg themselves,Wich wan understapding that they should return irkieve. remainder at six o'clock. From that moment the mob became more daring in their attacks on the Mansion house, until at length the Mayor came forward to beg of them to desist and to retire peaceably to their homes. The sentiments delivered by his Worship on this occasion were such as did honour to his heart, though it is to be regretted that he did not come forward at an earlier stage of the proceedings, before the minds of the people bad been so highly wrought up. His Worship cautioned them of the possible consequences of continuing their re fractory proceedings ; and, in alluding to the military, known to be in the immediate neighbourhood, said sorry he should be for it to be hereafter said that, during his mayoralty, such scenes took place as most probably would ensue, if he should be compelled to read the Riot Act, and they should be called in to quell the disturbances. Hia Worship, we regret to state, during his ad. dress, was assaulted with stones, and a very large one very narrowly missed striking him on the head. The Riot-Act was then read, but without producing the least good effect upon the mob, who, per ceiving the weakness of the force opposed to them, rushed upon the constables, disarmed them, and beat them severely. In this affray we have heard of some losing their lives, others having their limbs broken, and very many being severely injured. One constable, as a condition of release from their vengeance, was compelled to throw his own staff at the Mayor's windows ; others were obliged to seek re fuge in eight ; and one was actually chased into the float, whence he was taken up by a boat-hook. Nothing now remaining to curb the mob, the work of violence immediately commenced by a general and simul taneous attack on every part of the Mansion-house. In an instant, the windows and sashes were smashed to atoms ; the shutters were beaten to pieces ; the dome forced ; and every article of furniture on the groond-floor broken up. Tables, chairs, sideboards, mirrors, chimney -glasses—i n fact, every thing that could be found was demolished. The iron palisadep, tegether with the curb-stones in which they were set, were thrown down as if they had been mere reeds stuck in a mud bank, and furnished many a desperate villain with a formidable iron bar ; young , trees were torn up by the roots, and converted into wea pons of destruction ; walls were thrown deco to provide bricks with which to assail the upper windows; and straw and combustibles were procured, with which to fire the whole premises. At this critical moment it was, as we have been informed, that Sir Charles effected his retreat, in disguise, through the adjoining premises; but it was not made immun until twelve e'cloch on the following day (Sunday) that lie had left the city. For the present, however, the Mansion-house was saved from conflagration by the arrival of the troops. We had supposed, judging from the conduct of the mob in the morning, that the appearance of tcvo troops of horse would have been the signal for a general rout. We were, however, deceived. They had now acquired a considerable accession of force, and it was obvious that they had been joined by some of the most determined and desperate cha racters. Iriteod of retreating, the thousands who were present, clustering like bees on the adjoining walls r,nd elevations, cheered the troops with the greatest enthusiasm. Under the protection of the military, the constables and specials again collected in considerable numbers, and several of the most daring of the mob were made pri soners. Still it was ionnd imporsible to char the square or streets adjacent. The soldiers trotted their horses backward and forward amidst the cheers of the mob, but not the slightest disposition was shown to disperse. The Colonel of the district, Colonel Brereton, exerted himself in he most humane and laudable manner. He harangued the mnititude, begged anti entreared th r m to iepaii• to thzir homes, and cautioned them of the dreadful consequenCes which their conduct otherwise would infallibly draw upon them. He was every where received with the greatest cordiality, and with loud cheers. It is a subject of deep regret they at as er,;l;er come such an able individual had not been found to attempt fie concitiation of the people. We cannot but think that the good temper, fine ness, and presence of mind which he displayed, would have teen fraught with the happiest results. 'lf any' tlaiog or a nature calculated to draw off the at tention from the consideratilln of the present state Of thing! , could be tolerated, we might here descant at some length on the ludicrous appearance of the kitchen at the Mansion house, as view, , ,d ;:hrough the broken windows; at the fire, the meats were turning upon the spits, and npqn the ranges the different saucepans, kettles, &c. were boiling, unattended by a living soul. But the idea which at the te,omeot so forcibly impressed us of the feelings of the men who, anticipating the disiairbaneea of importance surneirot to justify the calling irr of the military, could, 'limier - such circumstances, contemplete the luxuries of a banquet, for e bids us to enlarge upon the subject. We turned from the scene with disgust. Ira the manner already described, things proceeded in the square until twelve o'clock at night. About this time a party of the rioters disappointed by the restraint which the troops imposed upon them, proceeded to the Council-house, where they commenced operations by amaehln the windows. Meanwhile orders were given to the cavalry to make y ;huge, and here the scene be came one of the greatest confusion. The peeple, who rap in all direction s , were pursue d t h rough the streets for a considerable distance by the soldiers, and several of them recef.ve4 eeyere cute from the sal:res. Many of the people took refuge in the vitrions passages in Wine-street, from whence they assailed the troops with stollen, particularly at the top of the Pithay, where one of the soldiers having been struck, he immediately turned round, and shot a man 440 upon the spot. It has been currently reported that he dismounted and fellowed him ; but we have been assured, on good authority, that this wqs not the case. This was at half-past twelve, and the soldiers continuing to gallop about the streets, prevented the re-assembling of ihe mob during the night. 94 Sunday morning the people again began to assem ble at an early hour in Queer,-square, bot every thing re maining quiet, and it beiog hoped danger had subsided, the troops were withdrawn, for ewe refreshment, (laying been on duty more than twenty-four hours. They had scarcely disappeared, when the mob again commenced their sntrages. Ascending now to the upper rooms of the Mansion-house, they proceeded to throw opt the valuable furniture into the square. the draWcos mad other de,- positories were ransacked, and wearing-apparel, bed and tank-linen, china, &c. were plundered, or wantonly stroyed. But another, and a most dangerous exciting cause now began to develope itself. During the sacking of the Man. sion-hoeve i the wine-cellars were forced, and it is sup posed that at least ooe-third of a stopk of three hundred di zen of choice wines was carried offend wasted and dank by the mob. It is needless to say that the result was fraught with the worst possible effects : they became roadli infuriate, and regardless alike of what mischief they committed, cr what risk they incurred. The scene at this moment was of the most deprived description i all agee,of both sexes, were to . be seen greedily swallowing the intoxicating liquors, while upon the ground the bodies of scores were tp Pe found dead with drunkenness. The streets, too, remote fiom ;lie scene of action from this time became noisy from the turhulene of c:7;,:cliea who were to be seen staggering about in all directions. The iroopa were ;hen speedily replaced, but the infuriate mob began to act on the offensive, and sought to wreak their vengeance on them for the wounds they had inflicted on the preceding evening, and particularly to be revenged for the killing of time man on the top of the Pithay. They attacked them with a al;.qwer of stones and brick-bats, which the men were unable to ;.so Magistrate being in attendance to take the responsibility of crd;rq to that effect. The Aldermen, we have been assured, considering ibis to the exclusive duty of the Mayor, refused to give the word, and A k e ktter, it would appear, was overpowered by his feel ings. in !late of things the commanding officer judged it prudent to withdrc,v th; troops (the 14th Light Dragoons) and replace them with 'a bom:y of the gd Dragoon Guards. On the retirement of the former, 6Cy 7ere followed by a large portion of the mob, who conti nued theia; ea;auhs upon them along the quay and over the drawbridge. On arri4i,;g at St. Augustine's Back, being provq(ed beyond furtherlorbearanee, ;hey turned round and f.re.;•seyeral shot 'on their assailants, and a further loss of life was the result, 'The mob, hOwever, 'nothing daunted, still continued to follow them, and in toilege" green some further firing occurred. In this place a consi derable number of persons had assembled, expecting Sir 6fiaos, az; usual, would attend divine service in the Mayor's 6haPel. tb mob continued their assaults, •.; hanging upon the soldiers' heels until they ve,verl at their quarters in the Boar's Head yard, where they were again red upon. The discharges, as the result must show, ete, ia.?lvi, - ver, but partial : the number of killed, as near as we could ascertain, Le:pg, , one, and wounded seven or eight. One poor fellow, who iia4i te.ken no part in the 41;.terbances, was shot through the arm as he swat: atand ingtirin;ditihteefiyuaait'eronthteht; o occurrences, Colonel Brereton opposite side. rode down to the square, followed hi w considerable num i,er of men and boys, who cheered hi m on hi e way thither. ie etsured them that there should be no more firing, that'the 14th shez,:ki be immediately sent out of the , c ity, and again exnorted them to return to their homes. This was about eleven o'clock, and 'it was truly awful to relleet,t,:a thc scenes which *ere passing at the time when . service was commencing in the churches in the neighbourhood. In the slime, with the exception of the scenes of drun .ennese wbi-h were still going on, nothi9p. particular transpired until the evening, with the exception that an individual mounted the statue of King William, and fix ing a tri- coloured cap on a long pole, pronounced aloud, " The Gip of Liberty !" The soldiers were drawn up in front of the Mansion-house, and the mob seemed nowise disposed to molest them. After a while, however, they manifested a restlessness for action, and a party, by no means numerous, proceeded to the BRIDE WELL, For the purpose of rescuing the prisoners. On their ar rival they lost no time in procuring sledge hammers from the nearest smith's shop, and immediately proceeded to beat in the doors. The keeper, Mr. Evans, we have been informed, had just sat down to dinner when he received the visit of the unwelcome intruders. Having succeeded in opening the doors, they became apprehensive that the large folding gates which at night shut up the thorough fare would be enclosed upon them, and they directly set about removing them. This they accomplished with most astonishing facility, and disposed of them by throwing them over the bridge into the float ; they then proceeded to li berate the prisoners, and, having accomplished their end, they forthwith set the building on fire. During their ope rations, not the slightest molestation was offered them. This happened about two o'clock. About the same time a stronger party of rioters, comprising, indeed, almost the whole body, proceeded to THE NEW GAOL, a strong-built modern building, having been erected about ten years since at a cost of nearly 100,000/. 'When we first heard of this movement we regarded any attempt upon the prison as the wildest scheme that could have been imagined ; but we lost no time in repairing to the spot. The scene which there presented itself will never be effaced from our memory. Along the New Cut, in front of the gaol, a dense mass of the rioters had assembled; and on the opposite bank of the river, and indeed wherever the eye could range, the people were posted in thousand,. The mob had already succeeded in forcing an entrance into the yard and the Governor's house, and were busily employed in throwing every moveable article into the new river, and as the tide was fast ebbing, all was carried off by the stream. The caravan used for conveying the prisoners to the Guildhall was launched into the water entire, and thither also were consigned the Governor's books and the apparatus for constructing the drop. The rioters, we have heard, procured hammers from the adjoining ship-yard, and with them the massive locks on the iron doors of the different wing), wore smashed to atoms. The prisoners were now released, and the scenes which followed were be yond description. Many of them, both male and female, stripped off their prison clothes, and proceeded on their way almost in a state of nudity, As they passed along, the nob cheesed them and followed after them with exul tation,. Many of them met their friends on the outside, and it is not easy to depict the extravagant joy with which they mutually embraced each other. After the prisoners had been liberated, anacamting al t.ogether, e. - iclueiye of &Otero, to more than one hundred, the next step taken was that of setting the prison on fire; and a black handkerchief having been tied to the weather cock on the top of the porter's lodge, over the gate way, it seemed to be the signal for commencing operations, for immediately after dense clouds of smoke wee seen to issue from every part of the building. The flames were seen first to break out from the tread-mill, which burnt with fury until it was quite consumed. In about an hour the Governor's house, over which was the chapel, was com pletely enveloped in flames, and the reflection on the hea vens was grand and terrific. The wings, however, being built almost ezcinsively of stoke and iron, with iron roofs, were but little injured by fire; though the rioters left be hind them every possible mark of wanton outrage. Dur ing the proceedings, and while the prisoners were in course of liberation, a party of the 3d Guards, about twenty in number, arrived ; but the mob aneered nothig intimi dated on the contrary, they cheered the troops, who ac knowledged the compliment by taking off their caps, and almost immediately after turned round and departed. As soon as the work of destruction was here completed, the rioters divided themselves into parties, the one proceed ing to the TOLL-HO USES, at Prince's-street Bridge, another to the one at the Wells, 1 - id another to the one at St. Philip's. These, in the pre sent state of things, were considered minor affairs, and were speedily in flames. The tenants, we were informed, had liberty given them to remove their effects. While these were being destroyed, the cre at the prison raged with th e greatest fury. Th e y th en set off, about seven o'clock, to the GLOUCESTER COUNTY PRISON, avo lord's Gate, which, in a short time, was broken into, the prisoners all released, and the building also fired. Here the flames were as appalling as at the New Gaol. At the same time, also, a party proceeded to Bridewell, which had only partially been destroyed, and kindled up the wing occupied by the keeper; so that the 'three prisons were in flames at the same instant. There was now not even the appearance of a check to the licentiousness of the mob, nor indeed had there been since the firing of the soldiers in the morning r but they now seemed t o reve l i n a comlciolis. ness of the i r security. Acoordingly a mere handful of the miscreants proceeded to THE BISHOP'S PALACE, Canons' Marsh, and, having effeeted an entrance ; immedi ate)y commeuced the work of destruction. A few indi viduals, however, were hastily collected, and, for awhile, succeeded in eloying their diabolical designs. Orders were then sent for the military, who had been guarding THE MA NSION- H 0 U. to repair for the protection of the Bishop's residence. They had no sooner, howeyer, left for that purpose ; than the mob, who had all day meditated the total destruction of the Mansion-house, commenced operations, and in a very short period set it on fire, commencing in the kitcken under the banc i peting room. On the arrival of the troops at the Bishop's Palace, they found thing! there tolerably scnre hut the !lames which even then r ose I . qm the Mansion-house too plainly indicoted that they had gone to, the protection of the one place, at the expense of the qe struction of the other. They, howeVer, tuned back again, apd, by the time of Their return to the square, the reflection op the opposite side of the Froom made it apparent that, by their endeavours to protect both places, each had been sacrified to the fUry of the incsndieries, When they arrived in the square, they found the whole of the back premises of the Mansion-house burning with fury, and the apartments in the front rooms occupied by wretches facilitat _ ti #e ing the tiestrretion or the outtoteg, tiy hring the apart ments siundtarreously. The infatu - ated ereatores, no less intoxicated with their successful career than with liquor, pressed forward to the windows and waved chiefs, cheering, at the same time, in exultation of the final accomplishment of their designs on the ill-fated building. We are almost certain, however, that many of them paid the forfeit of their byes for their criminal' te merity. From the rapidity of the progress of the flames, it is supposed that some were cut off from a retreat, and that they thus met with an untimely end. The fire spread with must surprising Tih.:}rnees, and 0013 the roof felll in, ood; togc i ther with the whole front, came down into the street with a tremendous crash. By this time the fire at the Bishop's Palace raged throughout the whole pile of building, which, in a short period, woe reduced to ashes. The Right Reverend the Bishop, who happened to have been in town &tying the last ten or twelve days, removed out of the city about the middle of th e d a y ; an d w e h ear th at t h e most *valuable of his e ff e cts had also been removed, as a measure of pre caution. He preacbeq, we b el i eve, at the cathedral in the morning. But to return to the square..--After the destrtiction of the Mansion-house, it was hoped that the fury of the mob military, h a yi rT no orders to act other would have been appeased ; b u t, un f ortunately, it was The e re spectator s , were, i mmed i ately after their a :sesn: as withdrawn, n'iedr awn, an d we b e li eve joined the remainder o‘°Ertirhsie otherwise, v t their comrades, altogether few in number, in protect ing the Council-house, which it was expected would be the next public building attacked. It was at least hoped that the house adjoining the Mansion-house, if not pro tected *from Fhe Amer ; wo;t:d be the list that would be permitted to be destroyed ; but We blush for she of our city, while we record the fiend-like conduct 'whieb followed. The rioters conceived the plan of firing the adjoining houses, and, b y twelve at n i g h t , t h e w h o l e mass, from the Mansion-h ouse to t h e m iddl e avenue , including. And all the back buildi ng , 4. l fE PUSTOM-40 Little King-street ; were 0.4 e immense mass of fire. The Custom-house, as may readily be supposed, was a large building, and the expertness of the wretches in lighting it up here, it is certain, proved the des,trtction of many who were ranging the upper apartments. Many oi Ice;:e : seen as they approached the windows to drop into the'flatnes, and others, amen 4; whom was a female, threw theinselves in desperation from the windows. The latter was carried to the infirmary; where she has sine.a died. Again the hope was raised that he dreadful work would now cease; but it wcs in vain. A small band, chiefly boys, who seemed to go about their work as if they had been regularly trained to the hellish e mployment, proceeded to extend the devouring eleMent, preceding their operation by giving half-an.hour's notice to the inmates to retire. The windows were afterwards smashed in, the furniture thrown out and carried off, and the premises ignited with a rapidity truly astonishing. lo this manner they swept away one whole side, and then proceeded to another; commencing with THE EXCISE-OFFICE. at the corner. To follow up the account from this time, three o'clock in the morning, would only be a repetition of the details at which our heart already sickens. Unre strained as were the flames, they extended to the houses of the parallel streets ; and, as in this quarter of the city are many of the principal wine and spirit stores, the fury of the devouring element can scarcely be conceived. Altogether there have been completely destroyed forty two dwelling houses and warehouses, exclusive of the Mansion-house, Excise-office, Custom-house, the four toll-houses, the three prisons, and the Bishop's Palace. Not the least painful reflection is, that, after the de struction of the Custom-house, the remainder of the mis chief was owing to the wanton fury of a truly insignificant number of wretches, almost exclusively boys. We sew three urchins, apparently no more than ten or eleven years of age, who, when their retreat from the attic floor of one of the houses had been cut off, and while the flames were bursting out from beneath them, coolly clam ber along a coping, projecting not more than three inches, and, entering an adjoining house, immediately set fire to a bedstead and furniture. From the time we have named, many of the older ones gave them selves up wholly to drinking and revelling in the scene around them. We feel certain that, if fifty mem only could have been collected, more than one-half of the property could have been effectually protected. But the whole eity seemed panic-struck, and but few cared except for their personal safety. On this night, at least, it may be truly said, that the city was given up to plunder. In the heart of the town, young fellows, in parties of four, five, or six, repaired to liquor -shops and public-houses, at the time intoxicated, knocked at the doors and demanded drink or blood. In some instances, we know that they broke into premises, helped themselves, and insulted the owners. And yet military, brought for our especial pro tection, could not act for want of orders! Oh, shame ! shame ! ! Few as they were in numbers, had they been employed with becoming energy, we should not have to deplore the disgrace of our city. Morning dawned on such a scene as had never before been witnessed in thia place. The flames, it is true, were subsiding, but the appearance of Queen-square was ap palling in the extreme. Numerous buildings were re duced to an heap of smoking ruins, and others were mo mentarily falling in ; while around, in various parte, lay several of the rioters, in the lest stage of senseless intoxica tion, and with countenances more resembling fiends than men. Meantime the soldiers, who hail been ordered out of town, were remanded ; and the Magistrates, having re-assembled, came at length to a decision, called out the posse comitatus, and made an application to Mr. Herapath, through the medium of Mr. Under-Sheriff Hare, for tl,e assistance of the Bristol General Union. Mr. Herapath, their Vice-President, called the members together bypublic notice, a course which we understand he had already de termined on, and in a short time a large body of them had collected together; previous to which Mr. Herapath was invested, by the Magistracy, with an authority equal to that of the tinder-Sheriff. We are sorry to have to record another piece of folly —wanton cruelty we would call it—if it had not, as we believe, originated in the utter ignorance of the Magistrates of the state of the city. The shops had remained unopened, and tha military were ordered to clear the streete,ean order which was fulfilled to the letter by a party of the troops which had experienced some rough treatment, and had in consequence fired upon the people on the previous day. The sight of this useless piece of duty was peculiarly distressing ; nothing was to be seen on every side but unoffending women and children, running and screaming in every direction, while several men, apparently on their way to work, were deliberately cut at, several seriously injured, and some killed. A poor fellow who attempted to take refuge in a house from which we were just emerging on business connected with the restoration of tranquillity, was wounded by our side. Yet worse effects might have followed this ill-advised measure if the withers had not been shortly after with drawn from their bloody work, and the streets principally manned with the inhabitants armed with good strong staves, and having strips of white linen tied round the left arni—a regulation suggested by the Magistrates to dis tinguish them, supposing the iaterposition of the military should he r i gein required. Several troops, however, of soldiers, together with the 11th regiment of foot, continued to arrive during the day; and in the course ef the after noon, intelligence having arrived tha t there was some disturbance in 11,;) neighbourhood of Lawrence-hill, a party gallopped off, and secured four countrymen in the very act of robbing a house. With these exceptions we are happy to state that no further collision with the mili tary took place. Towards the evening, the flames in several houses of the square broke out afresh, and part of the pavement in King-street was forced up by the heat arising from some brandy which was burning in the vaults beeeath, but the engines being in readiness no further injury oc curred. An attach ;:he shipping having been anticipated, the ships' hells were rung, signal guns were fired, and every thing was prepared for an attack. The Earl of Liverpoof was moored in the centre of the river, and moulated with guns, an attack on her in particular having been ex pected ; bet happily these anticipations were not rea lized. 'lt being thought possible, that if the rioters commenced their attempts, they wo - old, in all proba bility, endeavour to reduce the streets to total dark ness, by cutting off the gas-pipes, the Magistrates issued a notice, recommending the inhabitants to illumi nate their houses, a recoanmendatico which was pretty generally complied with. The churches, also, were lit up, and the posse comitatus of the several parishes were stationed in them, a constant guard being kept up, and relieved at hates intervals : the members of the Vnian paraded the streets during the whole of the night. These measures will be the undoubted means of restoring tranquillity; already have they effected much, for, up to the hour of our publication, we have heard of no further outrage; and we cannot but regret that the want of common energy in the Magistracy should have pre vented the having recourse to the same measures early on the Sunday morning, since it is evident that the actual de struction of property might have been as easily prevented as the places have been saved whiah were only marked far deetruct.on ; The total number of killed and wounded, as far as we have been able to ascertain, is as follows -four men and one woman, the latter in consequence of severe bruises received in one of the houses where she had been engaged in plunder: a little boy also, who was shot through the bowels, is not expected to recover ; fifty-one other per sons, inc/atliag foer women, have also received injuries, some of them very severe ones, principally sabre wounds a few in consequence of the parties leaping froth the burn ing houses. ari this aceoune we euumeiate the cases taken to she public hospitals only. Many lives were lost in the flames, and several persons who received injury having been taken to their own homes, we have no means of ac quiring the requisite information respecting them, FROM THE SECOND EDITION OF THE SAME PAPER. ONE O'CLOCK. The narrative we have given above brought dawn the principal circumc;tanees connected with the present de plorable state of our city until the hour of our going to press. Being closely pressed for time, we however found it was impossible to speak of the laudable conduct, as we could have wished, displayed throughout the night by the Members of the Political Anion, acting in conjunction with the parochial authorities. The firmness and pa triotism they have displayed on the present emergency, entitle them not only to the esteem of their fellow-cit4ens, but to the gratitude of the whole country. stronger contrast can scarce!y be conceited than the good order of tile last evF,ning presented to the uproar and confusion of Sunday night. Under their protection we may now say that confidence is restored, though the city still wears the appearance of gloom —very few shops being open, and business still being in a measure suspended. We have now sincere pleasure in stating that they are, at the pre. sent moment, employing the most efficient means to bring the plunderers and incendiaries to that justice which their erinias deserve. tieing authorised hi the Magistrates to Search all places Where they had a suspicion any of the stolen property was secreted, and to arrest all persons in whose possession such property was found, they have already exercised that power with such success, that, at the time we write, there are confined in the Exchange no fever than 01,if iriividuaiq, men, women, rd children, some of the latter (corroborating our previous statement) not more than ten or eleven years of age. In the same place there is also a considerable quantity of furniture, mostly in a shattered condition, which was found in the residences of the prisoners, many of whom were discovered in a state of intoxication, and in the act of enjoying them selves over the wine which they had purloined from the cellars in the square. There is now evidently a resection and, in their tttrn, the plunderers haute been seized with a . pan L; • We hear that all sorts of stratagems have been reaorted to by them to dispossess themselves of their ill gotten booty: We have also heard, but we cannot vouch for the truth of the statement, that seventeen of the ringleaders, in tee outrages of Sunday, are confined in the most secure wing of the gaol, the dilapidated building being now guarded by a string body of The persona 11,nded were principally found in BacY gardens, Letvites,mead, Host-street, Ti Pithay, and Bedminster.
