In toosequeticn of Hanel continued imprisoav
meat at Manchester. the ko4our of presidiing at the
meeting yesterday devolved upon Doctor Wanes'.
The Doctor does not equal his predecessor'', the
powers of oratory, but it was not very difficult to
pleiveltia auditory, and the applause that accom-
panied and followed his exertions wassuch as might
excite the envy even of Mr. Hatr. A long string
of Revolutions was unanimously agreed to. We
publish them, because we feel it due to the public
at large to communicate every circumstance and
.
document which may assist the country in forming
a correct opinion upon the character, sentiments.
and objects of these men who call themselves
Reformers.

We received the following intelligence last night'

from Msochater :

" MANCHESTER, ♦UGUST 24.
" The yeomanry of this place are less officious
than they have hitherto shewn themselves. conse-
quently we have less turbulence than when you re-
ceived my last communication. Yesterday I visited
Ancots-lane, Newton.lane. 'New Cross, &c. as
those are the parts of the town where the Re-
formists and discontented generally assemble. You
can more readily conceive than I can describe the
feelings I possessed at the sight of such a motly and
numerous assemblage. I remained in that quarter
from five o'clock until about half-past nine, during
which time the greatest order prevailed. and has
continued peaceable up to this period. I was much
amused during my stay with them with a sight that
never before occurred to me, that wits, the publicly
burning of some of the obnoxious Ministerial Prints.
About eight o'clock the persona most prominent
among►t them collected on and about the steps of
the New Cross, and were almost instantaneously
surrounded by thousands of their followers, when
one of them held up a newspaper, which was
loudly announced (loud enough, I could almost
imagine, to have been heard throughout this vast
towuship) to be The Courier; he then ejaculated
some sentences, hut which I was not near enough
to hear, and almost instantaneously a light was
applied to it, and consumed : The Manchester
Chronicle, and several others, went through the
same ordeal, to the great mirth of the spectators.
A more solemn ceremony was now performed.
which was the interment—the ashes being carefully
preserved, were enclosed in paper or linen (which
of these I could not distinguish), and depo-
sited in the earth, in the cross-roads, on the
site where tile Cross stands, when three of the
most hideous yells were given I ever heard.
They then formed themselves into different bodies,
and paraded the streets. HUNT, and those re-
manded under a charge of high treason, are not yet
brought up for a third examination, or is it known
when they will be. It was thought they would
have been brought up yesterday, others thought
as to-day, and other reports state that the Ma-
gistrates are at a loss how to proceed, es they
find it difficult to substantiate the charge of high
treason against them ; however, true it is, that they
are very industrious in collecting every particle of
evidence they possibly can against them. Great
interest is felt in the cases of these individuals, and
is almost the entire topic of converse here. We
begin daily to share a greater portion of tran-
quillity."

A full account of the disturbance at Maccles-
field is given in our preceding columns. The
speech of Captain SMYTII contains a severe, though
we believe an unintentional rebuke to the Man-
chester yeomanry. Addressing himself to the
Macclesfield cavalry, he said, " To your firm and
cool intrepidity it is owing that we return from the
achievement of an arduous service with our pistols
yet undischarged, and nur swords unstained with
our countrymen's blood."

We have received Paris Papers of Sunday last.
They contain an article from Carlsbad, winch men-
tions the arrival there of many distinguished diplo-
matists, and affirms that the conferences in which
they engage have reference solely to the internal
affairs of Germany. Nothing can exceed the ease
with which these matters are discussed, for we are
assured that the public promenades and dinner
tables are the usual places of conference—Who
would tot be a diplomstist ? How delightful
it must be, while prescribing for the Cun•titu-
tions of the s►vers% States of Germany, to be
enabled to maintain the -sound health and cois-
sistency of one's own, and to mingle in happy
confusion dissertations upon the claims of the me-
' diatised Princes, and the meat favourable pasturage
for venison, the projet of a law, and the best mode
of dressing turtle, the efficacy of the military sys-
em, and the excellency of Champagne, claret, sad
Burgundy !
