were examined. The Council broke up soon after
one o'clock.

The reason the Police °dicers were not more ats•
merges ea the night of the attack of the Cato-stieet
gang was, that they were distributed at the Aso
and at the official Gentlemen's houses.

Last evening information was brought to the of
by a man, that -- Puling, alias -- Pedant,

three men and one woman iu one room, and only
one bed in it. One of the men was in bed, who
said he was unwell, end who the patrol. suspected
to be one of the Cato-street gang of assassins,
and probably ill in consequence of the bruises he

he was found to herr all his clothes on except his
aloes. They stripped him, but he had no bruises.
The other two men were melting lead in a frying

APPRIIIIIINSION IN GLASGOW OP TWENTY-

SEVEN RADICAL DELEGATES.

GLAUGW. FEBRU ART 24.
Our readers, who, with ourselves, had begun to in-
dulge the hope, that the imploring appearances of
trade would tfr•ctually put en end to the foolish
attempts of the Radical Leaders to excite the Ws.
affected, will be surprised and alarmed at oar do-
mestic intelligence of this day. On Tuesday
eveuiog no fewer than 27 Delegates from the Ra-
dical Societies in corrtspondeuce with the Glasgow
Leaders, were apprehended in full conclave, in the
home of a vintner in the Gallowgete, their persons
searched and their papers secured; and, by the
prompt assistance of the military, were safely lodged
in the gaol. They are 110 w under examivation
before the Sheriff, and will, without delay, be
brought to trial.
We understand the delegates are from Eccle.
fechsti, Strethaven, Airdrie, Kirkiotilloch, Paisley.
Elderslie, Ayr, &c. We forbear stating more
particulars, as the individuals implicated must soon
be brought to auswer at the bar of the High Court
of Justiciary, and we have DO wish to prejudice
them et their trial. Warrants are out. we kern,
for apprehending a number more of the leaderi.
The military behaved with a leniency far beyond
what might have bee. reasonably expected, from
the grove abuse and insults they received, when cou-
veyiug the prisouers to gaol, mud on their retort) to
the !wracks ; more especially as they, some time
ago, received the most potuted orders to tire upon

them in the diseharge of their duty. The thought-

order, as they may rely, perheini when te„o itte, that
