mittee was appointed to make the necessary arrange.
meats. A discussion took place respecting the recent

tion was passed :—" That, in the opinion of this Execu-
tive the present tory government is solely responsible for
the disturbances which took place in Hyde-jerk on Mon-
day last, and for any injury to life and property resulting
therefrom ; and this committee records its emphatic con-
demnation of any interference on the part of government
with the peaceable exercise by the people of the right of
free discussion." A resolution, formally tendering the
thanks of the Union to the Reform League " for the
noble manner in which they hail vindicated the right et
meeting, and also for their continued efforts to promote
the cause of popular government," was also passed.
APPRSHENSION AND FACAPZ OP • CbOTH HEN,
CAANT or GOTKELFY.—Mr. John Barrett, who mmHg
absconded with 1,6001., has been amrehended, but sub.
sequently escaped, under the folio wing circumstances.
On Monday, three of his creditors, receiving infonratiou of
his whereabouts, after he had been absent for a year and
ten mouths, proceeded to Knaresbro'. There they found
him in • field, making hay, and, after a gent raw, cue-
needed in securing him in a hedge. They brought him
home to Gueseley, a distance of more than twenty miles,
having arrived there about five o'clock yesterday morning.
He asked to be allowed to call and see his family and wash
himself. This favour his captors granted, and two of
them went to inform some other creditor,, leaving him in
charge of the third merchant. Barrett went into the
kitchen, professedly to 'nigh himself, bet at once availed
himself of the opportunity, and succeeded in escaping
through the back door, thus again eluding his enalitors
awl leaving behind him what consolation they could
gather from having caught him and lost him again im-
mediately.
PLiou a or Locums rut Ax.o gnu .—d ontananni-
cstion from Medesh (Algeria) in the r0td,14444. says :
" Locusts are continually arriving from the south is
innumerable clouds, and leave nothing in their jar-eagc.
Our vines are completely stripped, nothing remaining but
the wood. The pretty plantations which made the ems-
ment of our agricultural colonies of Damietta end Lodi,
of the Val du Nader, and of the environs of Mediah, are
at this moment destitute of • single leaf. The trees
have a sinister aspect ; you might believe yourself in
the middle of winter, as not the slightest vestige of
foliage remains. The country memento the most painful
picture possible, and the poor colonistsare in desolation -
they use themselves in anticipation without a morsel
bread, for here the vine is the principal and even the only
mourns of wealth. At this instant ea inunense ofdc of
linnets is paring over Modish, in the dire:Con tho
gorges of the Chits. It is impossible to appreciate the
ravages that thews insects have made, and =happily will still
commit, for all that has hitherto escaped in the 'plan from
the Mitidja to the sea will be infallibly Savoured."
