THE RIOTS IN STAFPORDSHIRB.

WOLVERHAMPTON, SATURDAY EVENING.

A large number of colliers assembled this morning at
the Fighting Cocks, on the Dudley-road. After some
time spent in deliberation, a party proceeded towards
Wolverhampton, armed with pikc4handles and bludgeons'.
Nearly all the shops along the expected route were
closed. Tl.di mob, receiving no check, bad got nearly to
the centre of the town, demanding relief at the pro-
vision and beer-shops as they passed along, threa'l,ening
that if refused they would take it.

The police, armed with cutlasses, charged the mob,
and the appearance of the pensioners' bayonets com-
pleted their dismay, and they hurriedly dispersed.
The anticipated retaliation on the part of the mob at
Bilston, on Friday night, was prevented by the arrival of
a corps of the Essex Rifles from Weedon, under the coin-
mand of Captain Cope. To-day Bilston has been very
quiet, but the wrvices of the yeomanry were deemed ne-
cessary at Darla=ton on Friday evening, and the Wal-
sall troop, under the command of Ciplain Chawner, soon
arrised. Their appearance was sufficient to quell the
disturbance, and this morninl the troop returned to
Walsall. No sooner had they left. than the mob began
again to collect ni the streets, and to commit a number
of petty thefts. A second appearance of the troop of
yeomanry put them to fl ght, as they had no disposition
to endanger themselves by a collision.
At the Birchilla, near Wa!sall, a meeting of collier,-
was held this moraing, and after compelling. the men
employed in Mr. Miner's pit to leave work they seized
a number of articles and threw them down the shaft of
the pit. About 7GO proceeded to Walsall in a body.
On their way they committed various deprelation., and
were in the act of plundering the market, when a large
number of townsmen, healed by some prize-fighters,
Digbeth to the bridge. Thu 'yeomanry at
charged and forced them down High-street and
thisthr crisis
ough
entered the town, on their return from Darlab-
ton, and their appearance completed the panic, the mob
at once taking to flight. The shops were kept closed
and the magistrates sat permanently to swear in special
es, in
_
the day, with few exceptions,
to. be prepared for any future attack

SUNDAY, MID-DAT.
Thanks to the preparations made by the authorities
there has been no recurrence of disturbance in the towns
above named ; a lot of idlers was about the streets of
Bilston late last night, and a policeman received a severe
blow from a stone thrown by a❑ unknown hand. A
large mob assembled in the neighbourhood of Walsall
in the evening, but dispersed without doing any mis-
chief. If we pass over to-morrow (Monday), always an
idle and a noisy day in this district, in safety, in all
probability no further fears need be entertained.

HATISARKST.--.Mr. Wilde, the respected treasurer of
this theatre, takes his benefit on Wednesday evening
next, when the following attractive series of entertain-
ments will be performed ;—The Secret Agent, Bayle Bar-
naby's capital farce, His Last Legs (in which Mr. Hudson
will appear for this night only), and the last new spirited
ballet, in which the incomps.rable Perea Nena and her
trouptS will appear. Mr. Wilde deserves a bumper.
STRAND THEATRE.—Mr. Payne, the acting manager
of this pretty little theatre, takes his benefit this evening.
The entertainments are of the most attractive descrip-
tion, and we have no doubt Mr. Payne will receive the
reward he deserves.
FLIRTHIB DIFENSEIN OF CRONSFADT.—We have reason
to believe that telegraphic despatches have been received
announcing that some Russian ships of the line and other
vessels have been sunk between piles in the navigation
way at Cronstadt.
REPRESENTATION OP ASHTON-UNDER-LTNE.—:A. state-
ment having appeared in the papers that Mr. Hindley,
the member for this borough, purposes retiring from
public life, we believe we may state that it is unfounded,
and that the hen, gentleman has no such intention.—
